Land Decision Rendered.

On Thursday the Register and Re-
ceiver at Rapid City rendered a decision
affecting interest in valuable prop
erty near this city. The land in ques-
ton is forty acres near the Soldiers
Home. Sylvester A. Calhoun filed a
presumption on the land and Messrs.
Willis Sawyer and A. W. Hora, each
located a 2O.acre stone claim upon a
portion Of the Calhoun pre.emption.
When Calhoun made application for
patent; Sawyer and Hora appeared
and protested against the proof of
Calhoun for that portion which they
had located as stone claims. The claim
of Sawyer e. Hora was that the forty
acres in question is more valuable for
stone and lime than for agricultural
purposes. The decision of the land
office, however, is against them and in
favor of Calhoun. The testimony on
the case was very volumlnous and was
taken before Judge Gull. John +.
Schrader of Rapid City appeared for
Messrs. Sawyer e. Hora and e. l..
Wood, of Rapid, for Calhoun. The
case will go on appeal to the commits
sioner of the General Land office. The
inference naturally will be that a
stone claim has very little show as
against an agricultural claim in this
section of the Hills.
