A telephone report from Sturgis con-

MEADE COUNTY COURT HOUSE.

We have been interviewed nv u large
number OF Meade county citizens. during
the past week, on the court house ques-
tion. It is reported that there is y
movement on foot for the issuing OF
bonds for the building OF $4,000
court house and the people of the SOUTH
ern portion OF the county feel that it
would be an uncalied foran unjust bur-
den to shoulder onto them at this time.
As near as we can understand the sit
uation in Meade county it is as follows:
At the time of the location of the
county seat in 1889 bids were made for
the same bv Tilford and Stutgis. The
latter city offered to furnish grounds

MINERAL HILL.


A Mill to be Erected and the Mine Developed
at Once.
Last night the contract was signed for
the erection OF mill on Il E Niue, al
Hill property at Rockeryills. Ernest
Fish and Nate B. Wilcox have secured
an option on all the stock, one OF the
conditions being the erection OF the mill
and thorough development Of the prop

the mill have been ordered and. barring
accidents, the mill will be in operation
by II first OF August. 1t will be five

1t lmps. Work on it has commenced
already, Nate B. Wilcox having moved
to Rockerville to take charge OF the
work.
F.: The Mineral Hill property is we'll
known here, several Rapid City men
having been interested in it for nuul-
ber OF years. From statements regard
ing it obtained by the UNION it appears.
however, that the property is likely to
prove much more valuable than many
who supposed they were posted ON it

thought, being placer 1t is blanket vein

recent developments those who are in

going through the blanket vein Of

the case under similar circumstances in
the northern Hills. The development

Our independent friends are talking
strongly of Rev. William McCready OF

The CITY Asses.ment

Inc City Assessment.
i reporter meeting Mr. wilkinson to-
day asked for news as to the progress Of
the city assessors work. Mr.. wilkinson
replied that he was getting along all right
and expected to be done by the 18th, but
in order to make report by that time IL
would be necessary to engage an assistant
until that date. He fonud, he said, that a
great many buildings and other improve
mems in the city were not assessed at all.
In one block he found seven houses which
had not been assessed. the lots on which
the buildings stood being assessed at the
same figure as adjoining vacant lots. He
has also found number of rank inequali-
ties IN the assessment of last year both in
improved and unimproved property. In
correcting these he has reduced number
of valuations as we'll as RAISING some. The
work has not yet progressed far enough to
estimate the total valuation, but it is Mr..
Wilkinson's opinion that the total will not
be much larger than 1t was a year ago.
