Ii there are Democrats in the
Ninth District of Virginia who are
possessing their souls in confidence
that James w. Marshall is TO have

take when it is too late. He is
making q gallant fight, such
night as only man brim full and
running over with Democracy can
make, but in many instances he
has been unaided. He has made
no less than sixty speeches since
his nomination in August. He
has been all over the district. He
has done his part. But in the face
of a we'll organized opposition he
needs his party's best effort he
needs every vote that is his by

Mrs. Harrison to the Veterans.

There is nothing Of the countless,
touching things which moved the veter-
ans in Washington that will sink deeper
into their hearts than Mrs. Harrison's
thoughtfulness and courtesy.
She had just completed the long, sad
journey from the Northern mountains
to her home at the White House, and in
her weakness could not lift her head to
greet every one. But her eye caught
the BEAUTIFUL garlands of flags with
which the White House was decorated,
and her e st inquiries. after meeting her
aged father, and then gaining little
strength by quiet were of the soldiers
and the progress for their reception.
Learning that the hou and the
grounds had been closed for her COM
fort, she asked at once that both might
be opened TO the veterans and their
families, and that they might be shown
everything that the public ever sees.
The first lady ofthe land was soldiers
wife. She knew what il was to bid
husband God-speed when he left her for
the field in 1861. She knew what it was
to watch, and wait, and endure, and
pray through those long, sorrowful
years. She knew the feelings with
which soldiers looked on the dome Of
the Capitol, and the White House, with
her husband in the "victor's parade Of
1865"
She knew how they longed TO show
their wives and sons the White House
And because she had lived through all
this, and knew the soldier heart, and
felt herself one of them, the Executive
Mansion and its grounds were thrown
open again to the veterans.
1t was message which thrilled them
all, which moved all to tears, and seem
ed to proceed from the very confines OF
another world, and to be hallowed by
its Influences

Our School of Mines.

CUSTER CITY, Oct. Is, 1892.
EDITOR PIONEER If you can find
room in your columns for a short com
munication, desire to call the attention
OF the miners and prospectors of the
Black Hills to the fact that at RapiG City
there is located School of Mines. 1t
was built for the benefit of the state at
large, but as the Black Hills is the only
portion of the state which makes a
speciality of mining, it may be said that
it is for your benefit alone. / find by a
recent visit to the school that it is not
attended as it should be, and l want to
impress upon the minds of the miners
the importance Of this matter. want
to say to them. you are losing money by
not living up to your privileges, you are
letting bird 90 which you will not be
able to again catch.
The information which is dealt out at
that school is just what you need in
your business, and it 10 now offered you
free of charge. A great many Of you
who have followed mining for term of
years. think no doubt, that you know as
much about minerals as is necessary to
know, but one day spent inside the
walls of that building will open your
eyes to the fact that you know but little
compared with what prospector should
know to be fully equipped for the bust
ness. Some Of you can tell chloride
from bromide. but how many Of you
can detect tin in its different forms, or
even the different combinations in
which gold is found? Such as mis-
pickel. telluride, selenide. etc. How
many Of You can classify the different
rocks by the shape of the chrystaliza
ton? Again there are over 20 different

kinds of metals more valuable than gold.
How many Of you can tell these ores as
you trample them under your feet. or
bring them to light on the point OF your
pick? ] am aware that there is GER

dnstry. But this should have no weight
with you. The school is there, because
the people were enterprising enough to
put 1T there, and they are to be credited
for the public spirit and energy. Again,
this sectional prejudice and local jeal-
ousy is senseless and unbecomig to any
miner. We can afford to leave all that
to storekeepers who are in competion.
But to miners this should be our motto.
The Black Hills is our country, and to
bring its resources to the front is our
endeavor.
The winter is coming on, and many of
you will be idle in your cabin when the
frozen ground Is covered with snow, and
you cannot pursue your ayocation. Take
the time, go down to the school of mines
and fortify yourselves by obtaining a
better knowledge of your business, so
that in the future your work may be
more effective, more satisfactory and
more profitable to yourselves. Learn
to test your own ores and know what
you have got. If you can not spare the
time for full term, go for a month, or
for two weeks. You will be surprised
how much you will learn by close appi-
cation even in this short time. lie me
remind you again that tuition it free.
Itapld is a pleasant place TO live in,
and you will find plenty of good people
in the town. You will find Prof. Head
den, the dean of the school, pleasant
gentleman with a wonderful store of
knowledge in his department You will
find also that he is just as willing to i'm
part that knowledge as you are to re-
ceive it. c. w. ROBBINS.

Hon. Edwin Van Cise, of Deadwood,
treated the people of Custer to one of
the most instructive and interesting
political addresses ever listened to in
the Hills, last Wednesday evening. A
slight Misunderstanding as to the exact
date on which the gentleman would be
with us, prevented the proper advertise
ment of his coming, but notwithstand-
ing that fact, the court room was well
filled, and the audience was one that
fully appreciated the sound argument
presented. Mr.. Van Cise, after being
introduced, feelingly alluded TO the
death of Mrs Harrison, and expressed
the gratitude with which he realized
that all people Of the nation, forgetting
party ties, mourned with the president
the loss of his noble wife. The speaker,
in introducing his political talk, refer
red to the necessity of two parties, two
opposing political organizations, in a
! country like this, bat stated that he saw
no reason for the existence Of the third
party, inasmuch, as it has nothing to
offer the people, that is practicable,
and which would insure the contin,
ance of the good government we now
enjoy, and hope to in the future. The
issues between the republican and dem.
ocratic parties in this campaign, he di.
vided into three parts. namely, the
tariff question, the money question, and
reciprocity. These he handled separate
ly, comparing the attitudes of the two
parties on these questions. and by the
history of the past thirty years, and by
the citation Of facts. he clearly and
logically proved the wisdom Of the stand
taken by the republicans To the inde-
pendeHts he devoted .he last half hour
Of his address, proving the utter falsity
OF the allegations made in the preamble
OF their platform, and OF the charges
made against the great body of the peo-
pie. He discussed the third party plat
form in detail, pointing out the dishon-
esty Of some OF the schemes advocated,
and the inexpediency of others. The
address was closed with stirring appeal
TO republicans TO stand by the party that
had been true to them, and make its
platform and standard bearers doubly
sure OF success. 1t was splendid effort,
and made votes for the republican tick
et Democrats as well as republicans
commended the speaker for his fairness,
and only the independents felt little
sore. The people of Custer will be only
too glad of an opportunity to meet and
entertain Mr. Van Cise again, not only
as advocate of certain political princi-
Piles, bit as prominent citizen and rep.
resentative gentleman Of his portion of
| the Black Hills.

Custer county furnishes pretty good
example Of the manner in which the
democratic party has firted with the
Independent contigent all over the coan-
try during the campaign. After the two
conventions had sat down on fusion, the
independents were persuaded to ell
dorse the democratic candidates for
treasurer, sheriff and states attorney.
The democrats kindly consented to
withdraw their nominees for register OF
deeds, and clerk of the courts, two
Offices which everyone knows and ad.
mits will be filled with republicans. 1t
is pretty nice arrangement. The third
party people are expected to do their
utmost to elect democratic treasurer
and sheriff and will be repaid with
nothing. The demmys are to be con
