years has been located at Rapid

Dakota, Wyoming Il Missouri
River railroad company, was seen
10y reporter of the Omaha Bee
while in that city last week, aud to
him reported that the management
is constructing railroad in the
Black Hills to run from Rapid City
due west through the lumber and
mining district to the coal fields of
Wyoming, adistauce fabout eighty.

The reporter asked Mr.. Coad
about the lin districts of the Black

the next three or four mon bs the
American people will be convinced
that The tin industry of this com-
Try is complete success m every
way. The lIaruey Peak company,
composed of New York and English
capitalists, has invested m the
ueighborhood of S5,0OO,0oo in its
properties, while the railroad
companies ia building spurs To the
various mines have expended hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars. 1t
Is safe to say that these capitalists
and business men understand
thoroughly what they are doing,
and now that the 25oton mill az
Hill City has been started, Ameri-
can tin will, am sure, be placed
upon the American market Ia CON-
mercial paying quantities. This
will mean the sending of $20,o00,-
600 to the Black Hills tin districts
annually, instead of sending it to
foreign places, for block Tin TO be
used in the tin plate mills and other
concerns of this country.
"The tin ore mined IN this coun-
try, ! understand, Is about twice as
rich as that mined in Cornwall and
other foreign mines. 1t is only too
true that the eastern American pub.
lie has been skeptical about this tin
business because it has not been
placed on the American market
within the last six years. This is
easily answered by any one familiar
with the mining countries and min
ing properties and enterprises. II
is a sad thing to say, but neyerthe-
less il is true, that in all mining
districts there exists msu that are
ready to backbite aud backuai
these enterprises by addressing the
applications for patent to q good
piece Of mining property. To avoid
this the New York and English
stockholders have quietly performed
all necessary requirements under
the United States mining laws and
have consequently acquired patents
from the government, through the
land Office at Rapid City, for their
best claims, and for hundreds At
mat Now that they have fee
simple title to their properties they
will demonstrate to the American
and English peoples that the Black
Hills can aud will supply this nation
with all the tin desired in paying
aud commercial quantities. There
is no question ~ my mind that
with proper management the tin
industry will be on paying basis
long before the expiration Of the
year 1893"
