Still After the Rustlera.

News reached the city yesterday to
the effect that wholesale arrest of sus-
pected horse and cattle thies had been
made in Wyoming in the Big Horn
basin. One report was that nine men
were arrested, while the latest report
swells the number TO fifteen. Accord
ing to the report that reached here the
sheriff of Fremont county had obtained
facts enough to warrant the arrest of
several Of the rustlers of the Basin, and
for the purpose Of bagging them select
ed deputies living in thaG section to
compose his posse. The posse divided,
one party working along the Big Horn
river, the other Shell creek. The men
on the Big Horn rounded up the men
near Paint rock and took them into
custody. The party at Shell rock ran
across ex-Deputy Sheriff Hill, for whom
they had warrant. He was ordered
by Deputy Hopkins to throw up his
hands but refused and was shot through
the wrist. He Immediately drew his
gun and shot Hopkins dead then
mounting his horse defied the posse and
fed before the astonished deputies
could apprehend him. The entire sec
ton is incensed at the act and should
he be caught Judge Lynch will haye
chance to get In his work.-Pioneer.

What Tariff Reform Means.

Experience goes to prove that the de
mand for tariff reform" cannot be ap.
peased by any concession short of alb
solute surrender Of the protective prin-
ciple. 1t must be met and silenced by
overwhelming defeat whenever and
wherever opportunity offers, for as the
more candid among agitators freely ad-
init, it is tariff repeal toward which they
are pressing, and without which they
will decline 10 be satisfied.
Although the existing tariff law places
more dollars worth of imports on the
free list than was proposed by the much
lauded Mills bill-and while there is lit
tie the average family needs to buy that
is not now cheaper than under any
former law-there is no abatement in
the demand for tariff reform" And
none need be expected so long AZ the
utmost demand of the Golden school of
economists is not complied with, i. e.,
free trade for every article in the supply
Of which foreigners may desire to CON-
pete. Proof of this can be found in the
fact that self-styled reformers just as
vigorously denounce the Mckinley tar
If, relegstiug to the free list one half of
all imports, as they opposed preceding
legislation in which the number of duit-
able articles was more than double that
of to-day. They are no better pleased
with the tariff of $ll per ton on stee
rails than they were with the Sl7 exact
ed by the former law. They have no
word of commentator for the,reduction
of twenty. five per cent Of the tariff on
most kinds of lumber, on nails, and
long list OF metal wares. In short they
refuse to be comforted so long as for
eigners are require to pay anything
whatever for the privilege of competing
in the markets Of this country. Their
silence as to the provision of reciprocity
in trade with friendly nations seems
traceable to the fact of opposi
ton because foreigners are thereby
compelled to concede some of their sci
fish demands for commercial privileges
that cost them nothing.
Argument seems wasted on the aver
age free trader. The only safe course is
to ignore the demand and continue to
shape our economic legislation with q
view to steady and profitable employ
ment of the labor and resources of the
country insuring national independence
80 far as nature, aided by the energy
and ingenuity of our people, render such
independence possibility.-Journal of

Gone up in Smoke.

The saw mill of Tipten & Harding,
located FIVE miles west of Custer, was
destroyed by fire between one and
three o'clock last Sunday morning. The
property was known as the old Reder
mill, and Messrs. Upton & Harding had
just got it in readiness for active work,
having equipped it with new shingle
machines, edgers. etc. The loss, while
not exactly known, is estimated at from
$500 TO 5000. There was no insurance
and Mr. Odo Reder will probably be the
loser as no part Of the purchase price
had been paid. The fire was of incendi-
ary origin, certain facts related by the
men, leaving no doubt as to that. One
of the men residing near the mill MOTTO
ed light there about midnight. He
supposed it to be one of the force
closing up for the night. and called to
him. The light disappeared, all was
quiet, and no further attention was paid
to IL, until an hour or 90 later when the
alarm Of fire was given. The mill was
one Of the best In the Hills, and the loss
is severe one. While it Is not claimed
that there is any good reason for sus.
pecting any one Of the crime of arson, 4,

more individuals are regarded with
snspicion. and that steps will be taken
to establish their guilt or innocence.

A BASE MISREPRESENTATION

A Mining Engineer of Deadwood,
who has no name, and probably no ex-
istence, writes as follows to a friend in
Pittsburg, Pa, and the Financial and
Mi ing Record Of Dec. 26th quotes it (:
1t is almost impossible to obtain reli-
able information concerning the Harney
Peak Tin Company. All that we can
do is TO furnish the facts and let the
others form their own conclusions. The
facts are as follows: Regardless of the
circumstances that mining and metal
lurgical experts have again and again
declared that there was not sufficient
tin in the Harney Peak ore to justify
the erection of works for its treatment,
nevertheless, the company are building
concentrating works Of 300 tons capaci-
ty. This is being done in the face Of
the fact that 200-ton concentrating
plant with Golden Gate concentrators
has been lying idle on their grounds for
the past six years. Further, all the
work has been done with an extrava-
gance that is almost incredible Salaries
ranging from SIS 900 to $25, 900 are being
paid, and the expenses are really ten
times the normal cost No real ore
bodies have as yet been uncovered. All
that we can say is that there is an i'm
mense amount of material averaging
about one half Of one per cent Of tin
which has been called ore. The general
concensus of opinion here is that the
whole thing is scheme carried on in
the interest of the promoters. The ex-
travagant method of operation, the un-
justfiably large salaries, the persecution
of experts making adverse reports, the
fact that no tin has been found there,
seems to confirm the general conception
that there is no tin there in paying
quantities and that the enterprise is not
legitimate. NJ. b.
1t is hardly probable that the writer
of the above was ignorant of the falsity
of this statement. If he was he would
be entitled to more charitable considera-
ton That the Co. referred to has plenty
of tin property, and that the tin ore
exists upon it in nexhaustible quantities
is indisputable. The only criticism
which the people of the Southern Hills
have to offer upon the action of the
Harney Peak Co., is that they have not
proceeded with more diligence to de-
yelop their properties, and give the out
side world unmistskable evidences OF
the existence of Black Hills Tin. This
they will do in time. No informed
person doubts that, foels and knaves to
the contrary Notwithstanding.

Oysters and Seed

and bad oysters look alike in the shell.
Good and bad seeds otter have the same
appearance. Any one can tell worth

seed must he determined by its growth.
You want seeds that will grow, and you
want the product to be of value. You
cannot insure either of these things by
mere inspection. There Is but one
guarantee, the reliability of the firm
from which you buy. That our adver-
tisers, Messrs. d. NJ. Ferry & Co.. Of
Detroit, Mich, are most reliable, is at
tested by the fact that millions buy
seeds from them year after year. Their
enormous business furnishes the high
est proof of their reliability. Their

The American Banker, a financial
journal of New York, estimates that the
investors of Europe will absorb about
$3.50, 100000 worth of the best American

anything like this occurs it alone will
mean large degree of business activity
and prosperity in this country-it will
make a buoyant money market. But

Mining Items.

The extent Of country underlaid by
the silicious ore bodies OF the Black
Hills, is daily being enlarged by new
strikes and discoveries, as is evidenced
in the Blue Ridge group, situated about
a mile from Englewood, one Of the sta
tions on the b. & M. r. X. In this
property, both fat and vertical bodies
or veins Of such ore have been uncover
ed. The first discovery on the ground
was made in fifteen foot shaft, where
the ore was found to be six feet thick,
assays of which gave returns running
from $1l to $40 per ton. The vertical
vein was found in other workings, is
two feet wide, between we'll defined
walls. and is of the same average value
Times.
That the manga nese deposits Of Gus
ter county are attracting attention in
the east, is evident from the amount Of
advertising they are receiving The
following from the Sioux City Journal
of recent date will be of interest to
our readers: "The manganese discov-
cries made during the summer and fall
show good prospects and will probably
be worked on an extensive scale before
the winter is over. The discoveries so
far made extend over a belt north and
south for about 81 x miles or more, COM
mencing ffteen miles south of here in
Pleasant valley, from whence it is traced
southerly for several miles, crossing the
Burlington and Missouri railroad at a
siding twenty miles from Custer City.
The ore crops out at contact between
the sand and limestone formations,
which is in conformity with the mines
which have already been found and
worked in different parts of the world.
Some tests that have been made on the
best ofour ore by the Chicago steel works
show it to run from so TO 90 per cent.
manganese, which is a splendid show.
ing The same tests also show very
small percentage of silica and phosphor-
ous-not enough to make them an OBJ
lection commercially. This would make
it to bring from SIS TO $50 per ton at the
steel works in Chicago or ST. Louis. The
cost of mining, hauling and railroad
freight, if the large quantities exist
which are indicated by the outcrop, will
be from 81 to 50 per ton, acco. ding to
distance from the railroad where the
mining is done. This would make a
handsome profit, even if the ore only
averaged Sl5 per ton at the steel works.
Manganese is used in making Bessemer
steel. The ore is first smelted and
spiegel iron or fuero-manganese-ob-
tanned from it. If the ore contains
much silica or other deleterions sub
stances they have to be removed before
smelling or the steel would be injured.
The best ore now procured in the United
States is mined in Virginia and Ar
kansas There is some shipped from
Germany and Spain. The wages OF
miners in those countries is so low, and
ocean freight rates are so small that the
ores of foreign countries can compete
with ours in our own country. There
is so small an amount of the ore pro-
duced, however, compared with the
demand, that If mined on large scale,
it is an exceedingly profitable busi-
ness"
