The Black Hills (Dakota) Pioneer
submits the following advice to all re-
putable mining men who place any
value on reputation
OF all the ancient and honorable
titles, this one OF professors has GER
tainly fallen into the hardest lines.
Webster lines the definition-First,
one who makes a public profession,
especially OF religion-and second, one
who processes publicly to teach, es-
pecially an officer in a college or uni
versity, whose duty it is to instruct or
read lectures. Abroad it is restricted
to its proper use. In the whole oil
England there are not more than 80
men known as professor" In the
United States about 5000, 900, from
the college don up to the corn doctor.
From the village school teacher, who
boards around, gives instruction
through the whole range OF learning
for S25 a month, down to professor
of mathematics, who gets 900 a
year for teaching transcendental phys
les only, all wear proudly the grand
old title, but il is in mining sections
the professor fiourishes TO perfection.
Talk about colonels in the South why,
in mining section, professors are
thicker than flies around the bung-
hole of an empty beer barrel in sum-
mer time. Professors have been
the curse OF the Black Hills. Every
fraud ever fioated here has been
booked by professor" their names
would fill column, and in almost
every case the title was self conferred
scarcely one having been entitled to il
by any rule, custom or precedent
" Professor and fraud have almost
become synonymous terms-so much
so that you can safely bet that any
one coming into a mining section with
the title OF professor will bear watching
