The Lookout Mining Property,


The Rapid City correspondent OF the
Minneapolis Journal has a lenshty
communication in the Saturday edition
Of that paper, on our mining resources
After r~eciting a few OF the reasons for
some OF the failures in Black Hills min
ing ventures, it goes on to say:
But in spite of all the failures and loss
es the Homestake is not the only fre.
gold mine IN the Hills, and the present
year will demonstrate the fact. A few
months since DR.. f. N. Whitney, a min
ing EXPERT, arrived from New York ia
superintend the working OF the lookout
mine, which is located about seven miles
from Rockford and midway between
Deadwood and Hill City. This mine or
rather group OF 30 CLAIMS, was opened
seyera! years ago, a 40-stanp mill
erected and some $500, 900 spent in de.
velopment. The assays had ALWAYS
been most tlattering, but still the mill
did not pay. Or. Whitney, who is at
failure:
Following the plan of the Homestake
our people had worked low and hiab
grade ore together. The low grade went
about $40 per ton, but when worked
together the result vas but about 81 pei
ton. This was a mystery for sometime,
and it looked as if a big robbery was be-.
ing worked upon the plates, but an ex.
animation OF the plates showed that the
poorer ore was full OF black plumbago,
which encrusted the plates with a black
greasy substance. allowing the gold to
slip over" DIR. Whitney says that he is
now at work upon a process for saving
gold from this character OF ore.
The Lookout mill will start up within q
lew weeks and DR.. Whitney is confident
that another great gold producer viii
soon be declaring dividends.

Smelling for a Fight,


After quoting the UNIONS remarks on
the proposed libel suits against Patrick
Cox and others, the Deadwood Times of
yesterday says in reference to the prob
ability OF one being instituted against
that paper.
The UNION is very kind in helping us
out. The latter sentence is wherein lies
u defense and this is our denial. Had
the Times called him q man it would
have certainly been libelous but the IL
bel would not have been on Mr.. Will
Jams. 1t would have been on any
honest man, which is the noblest work
of God, in comparing Williams toa
We are getting just a little impatient In
this libel matter. 1t has been upwards
OF three years since the last libel suit
against us was closed, we feel lost with
out one II, as says the clipping from
the UNION, Mr.. Williams desires q little
'bout" and thinks his reputation or
character, if either he has, has sustained
an injury by the publication Of the fol-
lowing, which appeared in the local col
umns OF the Times on March 18th, we
will be here to accommodate the gentle
man in any form he may wish:
Mrs. Williams has the sympathy OF
the entire community, and the belief is
she has been grossly wronged by the
monstrosity in human form the law
made her husband. The public and
press cannot condemn such9miserable
brutes as he in too strong terms, and
we hope and pray, ii the law can reach
him, he will be Justly punished.
We will stop here and wait develop
lments.

Two Columns From Saturdays Daily.
The Republican, Imbroglio

What a noble spectacle the republican
party Of South Dakota presents to the
world today! Before the state was adj
mitted II calal OF it's self-constituted
leaders met at Washington, formed a
league offensive and defensive, and pro-
ceeded to parcel out the officers and d.
vide the spells. All OF these great men
could easily be collected in a very small
bed room at the Ebbit house. Moody
and Pettigrew formed a ring within the
ring and resolved to be senators. Ed
gerton and Mellette grumbled but took
their medicine with wry faces, with the
understanding that Edgerton was to be
United States District judge and Mellette
governor. Minor offices were Opposed
OF, and solely and entirely with ref
ference to the personal interests,
likes and dislikes OF this little junta,
The people had no more to say about it
than about the weather or the sun spots
next year. The president, then new in
office, ratified the decree that had been
drawn up for him, with a very few ex-
captions. But now behold the result Of
all this greedy, shameful, indecent bar
gaining. When rogues fall out honest
men get their rights. The only man OF
the great quartette who is now delighted
with his luck is Judge Edgerton. He
was forced to take a life judgeship in
stead OF a place in the senate and he did
ruefully. Butnow you can hear the old
man chuckle all over the state. He is
ensconsed for life in q fat place and
complacently moralizes on the evils
OF bosslsm, to which he iudically at
tributes the swift decadence Of the re-
publican party in South Dakota. He is
a philosopher now. He was acandidate
out OF a job then. But Moody, Petit
grew and Mellette, where are they? 1t is
safe to say that if the people had a
whack at the iour this fall, not OF
them would stand IL ghost of q show.
Two years have been enough to show
this people the calibre OF each and all.
Tlimmers, tricksters, hncksters in small
offices. looking at politics as a mere cut
throat game, with the lowest idea OF the
dignity OF the places they sought and
struggling in the vulgarest manner for
the pelf and plumber attached, they are
now at war. With clubs up they now
propose to fight it out at Chamberlain
on the 23d OF March.
Moody says. II can say that Coy,
Mellette will not head the delegation OF
have ANYTHING to say about it, and
when President Harrison relied upon
him to secure a delegation from the
etate he rested upon a broken reed. i
Gov. Mellette will devote his full atten,
ton to state affairs he will find that
he has more work than he can accom-
plish, and it would be far better for hin
to let national affairs alone"

Anything to Beat Harrison.

1t is evident that a strenuous effort
is beng made, and has been in progress
for some time, to defeat Gen. Harrison
for denomination. The fay orite scheme
Is to multiply candidates and to manip-
ulate as many state conventions to in
struct for Il local candidate-for any
body but Harrison.-Sioux City Jour
nal.
This is exactly the scheme in South
Dakota, headed by Pettigrew and
Moody. If they cannot get their own
men endorsed, they want all delegations
to go unrestricted. Anything to beat
Harrison, is the cry Of Moody. Any
thing to beat the best friend the state
eve had.

The Newton Beers Combination.


The Black Hills Theatrical company
did not appear to very great advantage
last evening. While there were NJ very
glaring mistakes, the performance was
marked by the absence Of anything APP
preaching excellence in the art. Mr..
Beers himself "a good and so was Miss
Kate Woods Fisk in the roll ii a Ian
cashire lass. Miss Wayland, as Job
Armrod's wife, did not display the fin
iEshed style so noticeable in star actresses
of even travelling troupes. Ed Fiske as
Benjamin Blinker vas quit cute, but he
adhered too much to the same class OF
comedy, making his characteriZations
monotonous towards the last. The
balance OF the support was below the
average and fell far from giving satisfac-
ton to the crowded house that greeted
them. But the poorest OF all was the
orchestra.
The management may rest assured
that Rapid City will not exert itself over
much to induce the city council to re-
scind the ten dollar license IMPOSED on
theatrical companies, unless given better
deliniations than the one produced last
night.

loDject and purpose thereof that j., that
IT was to b held ~ him until the day
the land would besopened for entry and
then to place the am on record before
the protestant could appear and make
her entry. But it appears that, as soon
as tile Office vas opened for business on
Oct. IS, 1887, the protestant appeared
and presented her application to enter
the land in question, IS she supposed,
and it seems that said McKibben re-
ceiyed her application and allowed her
to make entry Of other land, knowing
that the land described in her applica-
ton vas not the land she desired to
enter, and supposed she was making
entry OF. Directly after protestant left
the office McKlbben entered the land for
Triggs and wrote him on that day, or
the next, that his was the first entry Of
the land as the other person made a
mistake in describing 1T, and he thought
he (Triggs) would have no further diff
Guilty about it. Triggs did not appear
at the office at all on the day his entry
was made OF record, but in his affidavit
accom- panying his application sworn
to Oct. ID, 1887, he stated that owing
to the great distance from the land
office at Deadwood he was unable to
appear at the district land office to make
the affidavit. 1t appears, however, that
this poor woman was able to and did
appear personally at the land Office to
make her entry, while Triggs who was
an unmarried man, and apparently in
fair circumstances, swore thatby reason
OF the great distance he was unable to
appear, etc.
Soon after the protestant learned that
a mistake had been made in her entry
and applied to have it amended to the
right land. and after the same was al
lowed, about April 1S, 1883, she again
appeared at the office to amend her
entry and took with her a letter from
her attorney to the register and receiver
in which it was stated, among other
things that q hearing would have to be
ordered to determine the rights OF the
parties, and to swear her to the af1idav-
it which he had drawn up Tor that pur-
pose, and suggesting the person before
whom the hearing should be had.
The papers were received by the clerk,
but she was informed that they would
have to 60 to Washington, that he
could do nothing then. The affidavit
remained in the office but no further
action was taken and no answer given
to severalletters by protestant's attor-
ney to the register and receiver making
inquiry about the matter. Upon max
ing final proof the plaintiff had a right
to appear and protest against it's allow
ance as she did.
Triggs acquired no legal right to the
land by virtue OF his possession thereof,
taken as it was, by force, and so re-
tanned, and, assuming that his entry
was regularly nude, he cannot hold the
land Hereunder, as it was made with
full knowledge, through his agent, Nc
Kibben, OF protestant's mistake, but
his entry should be cancelled and she al
lowed to amend her entry to embrace
the right land.

This, and YOU, from q man Whose
friends. but lately sald,:.had slept with
Harrison when he was q boy, was his
bosom friend in Indiana and always got
admission to the White house by the
back door.
Pettigrew agrees with Moody. One
controls the fifty-one votes os4Afi1ne-
haha on the east and the other the
forty-three votes Of Lawrence on the
west side OF the state. Like the upper
and neither mill-stones they hope to
grind everything between. The presi-
dent, whose praises erstwhlle they SO
loudly sang, ls given fair warning to
stand and deliver. He failed to hand
over that life ~iudgeship to Moody and
now he must take the consequences.
Meanwhile Mellette says: "If Senator
Pettigrew or anyone else supposes that
he has control Of the coming state con-
vention he is assuming altogether too
much. The convention will be neither
a Pettiprew nor any other mans con-
yention, but a republican convention.
1t will not be Of the vest pocket order"
What larks! Mellette has been the
most modest OF the quartette and the
least OF a boss. He has probably re-
piled to the presidents questions as to
candidates. No MORE. For this Moody
threatens to pulyerize him, and Pet
tigrew will scatter his dust to the winds.
Moody stands ready with t%wenty-one
reliable Homestake votes to commence
operations and Pettigrew with q major
ity OF Minnehaha strikers, will be on
hand to assist in the operation.
Well, well! Does it never occur to
these giants that after all the people
will have something to say in this BUSH
ness? Hitherto they have regarded
them as dumb, driven cattle. Butaday
comes when even cattle will stampede
and crush all before them. That day IS
not far off.
Under such leadership the 10000 re-
publican majority in South Dakota has,
in less than three years, shrunk to
5000. That 5000 is likely to dlsap-
pear this fall, even though no fight is
made by the opposition. This band OF
spollsmen will do the business. Only
let them alone. AS party wreckers they
are %unexcelled. Give them rope and
they will hang themselves, in fact have
almost done it already. There is not
an able, not u learned, not an eloquent.
not a wise, man among them. They
are pigmics trying to masquerade as
giants, and fancy they deceive the
country. Their greatest achievement
has been in turning a republican state,
with an immense majority into one in
opposition, and that in less time than
a similar feat was eyer accomplished
before, AS architects OF ruin, they have
been signal successes. AS party leaders,
as political managers, as republican
chieftians, they have been something
worse than contemplate.
