Retrenchment.

The city council OF Rapid City has IN
angurated the work Of retrenchment SO
long promised. Four ordinances were
introduced with that object in view, be
sides the resolutions cutting down the
expenditures for light. 1t is the inten-
ton OF the council, for the present time
at least, to do away with lighting the
streets with gas and reducing the NUM-
Der OF street electric lamps to six. BY
this the council hopes to make a saving
of 80, 900 q year at least on gas bills,
and on electric lights $3.50 n year. By
the abolishing OF the office OF water com
missioner and having the duties pertain
to that office performed by the chief OF
police instead, q saving OF $3.50 a year
will be made to the tax payers, and by
the reduction OF the salaries OF the audi
tor and treasurer a further saving OF
$500 a year will be realized. The city
can save on oil the reductions proposed
the coming year.

OverrUn with Miners.

Wilbur f. Smith, who recently re-
turned from an extended trip through
the Black Hills, reports that section OF
the state as being overrun with miners
who have come in from Colorado by
way OF Cheyenne on foot, and mentions
miners who walked all the way from
Miles City. The main street in Dead
wood resembles Dearborn street in Chi
cago. 1t is so crowded that the people
have to push their way through. The
Black Hills are the nearest gold mines
and this draws thousands OF the IN
employed miners from the silver states.
There is lots OF gold to be worked in the
gulches but miners will not work unless
they get their price. The old placer
mines near Hill City have been pur-
chased by an English syndicate and they
are buying up all that kind of property
that is offered for sale. The latest and
best hydraulic machinery is nov on the
grounds and it is expected that the old
placers will yield up considerable OF
Cleyeland's only metal. People OF the
Hills are complaining about hard times
but tn. mt know what they are
talkin" bout. Mr.. Smith expresses
greu. Jpes for the future OF that pOr-
ton OF South Dakota.
