Mr.. Suffers opinion of himself as candidate
is we'll known When he announced his can
didacy for the Speakership he declared that
it was conceded by air that he had tho "eX-
perience and necessary qualifications" Now
we are favored with his opinion OF himself as
presiding officer of the Assembly. 1t was given
out yesterday by his clerk in typewriter form,
ond must BIO considered authentic and official.
The statement declares that Sulzer " makes a
model presiding officer" and that "he dis
charges his duties with the fairness OF Bush,
Che adroitness of Sheehan and the speed OF
a Husted.' This is decidedly interesting, con-
sidering the source from which it comes. Mr..
Sulzer must believe that other things than
charity begin at home.

Tho announcement that Wilson $. Bissell
had been selected by Mr.. Cleveland for Post
master G cneral has stirred up the anti-Cleve-
land Democrats in this State greatly. Mr..
Bissell was very active in the Anti-Snappcr
movement last year, and the dominant faction
in the State understand perfectly we'll that
their share of the postofiice patronage under
his administration will be exceedingly small.
Already there are signs at Albany of an active
war of revenge upon Mr. Bissell and the COM
ing Administration generally. Senator Endres
is ready to introduce several bills relating TO
Buffalo which will deprive Cleveland Demo-
Gratis of Offices and strengthen the opposition
A similar policy in reference to a number Of
other cities is in contemplation but there is a
sufficient number of Republican and Cleveland
Democratic votes in the Senate to prevent the
contamination of these partisan schemes
Apparently Tammany scheme of large pro-
portions is involved in the bills. introduced on

TOUGH MINING CAMP,

Sheridan. :Wyo. Mine Owners Charged
o With Treating Their Men shamsfully.
CHAMBERLAIN, 8. D.. Nov. 2.-Many
complaints are being made by parties
who have gone from Dendwood to the
coal mines near Sheridan, Wyo., that
everything has been misrepresented to
those who were induced to 60 there.
Those who have returned disgusted re.
port that there are no accommodations,
as there was only mess house, tho
garret of which had been fixed up for
sleeping apartments with three rows OF
bunks, and that everyone was expected
to furnish his own bedding The
miners had only small basins to wash
in and had neither soap or towels, and
the majority of them carried black
and dirty rag which they used after
going through the motions o. washing.
Idle men are focking in from all points
and are leaving rs fast as they can get
away. The price paid for mining coal
is about half as much as the men were
informed they would receive, for they
are paid only As cents a car, whereas
they were told they would be
paid 60 cents per ton, and
the cars used, by measure.
mcnt of old time coal miners, hold over
1890 pounds The miners employed in
the mine are not furnished with enough
cars to carry out the coal as fast a.
mined, and some of them work from
early morning until 12 o'clock ut night
in hopes OF getting enough ahead tc
leave the camp with. The mine 10
about six miles west of Sheridan and
the coal is of very good quality
Many of the returning miners have
seen some tough mining camps, but
never have they seen one to equal this

CnAMBER,AIN, 3, b., Nov. NEW
ore discoveries are reported daily
N tho Black Hills by tho pros
pectors who are now arriving
n Deadwood after completing their
annual assessmentwork. On the Spring
sfeek divide some fine looking dry ore
has been found in and under cap of
luartzite in connection with the blue

Ruby Basin and other selicious ore dis
tricts. The discovery was made in q
small shaft about twenty feet deep and
apparently being vertical vein. About
two miles further west u large and
strong vein of free milling ore is being
practically developed; samples show its
value to average $3.50 per ton, some
assays have given returns up to S35
per ton. In Carbonate district q
large body or cloot of average
grade orc was opened up last week. 1t
assays from $3.50 to $32 per ton. As
sessment work is now in progress on
numerous claims in the vicinity OF Gar
den City, and the miners are we'll
pleased with the results SO far. While
sinking we'll on the club house prop
erty IN Custer, Custer county, the work
men encountered a blind ledge of py-
ritic ore at distance of but twenty
five feet from the surface. The ledge
dips downward and into hill, and the
deposi is apparently an extensive one.
Prospectors and miners who have ex-
amined samples of the ore arc of the
opinion that there is something in it
worth looking after. and quantity of
1t has been sent to an assayer to be
tested. 1t is the opinion in Custer that
high grade gold ore is just as liable to
be found within the city limits rs out
side of them and it is not impossible
that the strike may prove to be very
important one

The Great Storm OF 80,

CHAMBERLAIN, S. d., Noy. 1.-The
early settlers of Turner county ncye
permit the month of October to pass
without recalling the great storm that
occurred in that section in 1880. 1t
was on the 18th OF October of that year
that the first county fair was being
held. Although the weather on the
previous day had been threatening, it
was voted by the directors to hold the
fair on the day set, with the hope that
the stormy conditions would pass
away. But they did not. The mist
turned to rain during the night, and
about noon of the 18th it began to
snow AS the day advanced the storm
increased. The snow was moist. Dur
ing the night Of the 18th the storm in
creased and the wind, BLOWN, from
the northwest, also continued increas-
ing in velocity. A wild, bowling bliz-
zard was on. 1t continued for several
days, when the blizzard lifted and the
places there were snow banks g ten
or fifteen feet deep Considerab BILE stool,
was smothercd. The corn fields were
banked with snow and the railway
trims were stuck in the snow drifts
all along the line. Traces of the
storm remained in the snow drifts in
the river ravines until the next June.
The winter following was rough one.
Snow storms three times n week and
no railway trains reached Parker for
seventy-eight days. Provisions and
fuel were alarmingly scarce. Travel
on snowshoes was the mode The
storm siege raised about the middle of
April and then came the floods. So
great was the snow md moisture that
fell during the winter that every lake
bed was hlled to the briln, and the re-
suit was that crops for several seasons
following were enormous. While not
desiring another winter of that char
acter, the people of South Dakota
would like to see sufficient snowfall
this winter to fill the lake beds as
they We're filled then.
