A telephone message from Rapid City,
received in Custer Monday morning
last, stated that bill to divide Custer
and Pennington counties had been in
troduced in the state legislature. The
parties sending the message stated they
had been wired from Pierre for assist
ance, and it was suggested that re-
monstrance from Custer citizens be
secured and forwarded to Pierre. A
paper urging the defeat Of the bill was
Immediately drafted. and in a few hours
the signatures Of the business men OF
the town were obtained. Tuesday
evening q copy of the document was
sent to Pierre by telegraph, and since
then the people of Custer have been
snxiously awaiting further particulars
concerning the bill and it's originators.
iney haven't neen received, and prooa-
bly, won't be. The daily papers of the
Hills and of the east have been search
Cd in vain for any record of the intro
duction of such bill. or any reference

have been received from Senator Thorn
by, Representative Scanlan and Jos. T..
Pitcher, asst. senate clerk, denying the
existence Of bill Of that kind. and
pronouncing the report a fake. 1t is,
undoubtedly. In all probability it is
one Of the many schemes hatched by
the big stock owners OF the foot hills to
defeat the Thornby boundary line bill.
The parties who te!ephoned from Rapid
were doubtless acting in good faith, and
our people certainly were when
they prepared and signed the remon-
strance. The individual who started
the report should bs "hung, drawn and

One week from to-day, March 4th.
Grover Cleveland will be inaugurated
president of the United States. and the
second democratic administration since
the civil war will be ushered in. The
fact that Mr.. Cleveland has occupied the
presidential chair before, and the addi-
tional one that he has already made it
apparent that he, and not the demo-
cratic party, is TO rule, have inspired a
confidence in him, that would not other
wise exist in the breasts Of millions Of
American citizens. Consequently the
change of administration will not mean
what it might have meant under other
circumstances, and its effect on the
general business Of the country will not
be material. In the selection OF the
members Of his cabinet, in the discharge
of other duties which preceded his
inauguration into office, and by the
hints relating to his plans for the future
which Mr.. Cleveland has already made
public. he has given his constituency
every reason TO believe that there will
he no immediate and radical changes in
the policies Of the government. 1t is
quite evident that the Chicago platform
has been laid away with other sacred
relics, and that our next president will
stand upon one Of his own designing
and construction. Mr.. Cleveland has
had fonr years of experience as presi.
dent of the United States, and since
then the benefit of an example, than
which the history Of this nation affords
no better. These advantages, combined
with the honesty and common sense Of
which he is undoubtedly possessed, fit
him to administer the government in
the interests of the people. He has the
power TO make his administration clean,
sound and business-like, and it is believ-
ed that he will do so. II he does, the
people will be content. The dema-
gogues who fsthered the democratic
platform Of 1892, will be the only
kickers.

Senator Thornby's bill for the estab-
lishment of an asylum at Custer, failed
to pass the senate despite the manful
fight which the senator made for it. A
special from Pierre. dated the Goth, says:
To-day Senator Thornby's bill locating
an insane asylum at Custer City came
up. A majority of the committee pre-
sented an unfavorable report on the
gyound that the bill is unconstitutional
and unnecessary. Messrs. Thornby and
Star made strong arguments, picturing
the beautiful and salubrious surround

A petition addressed TO Grover Cleve
land, president of the United States. and
asking that Mrs. Bertha Wood be ap
pointed postmistress of Custer, under
the new administration, was circulated
by Mr. Wood, on Monday last, and re-
ceived large number of signatures. II
has doubtless been forwarded 10 Wash
ington ere this, and as r. S. Lewis has
declined to apply for the appointment
the petition will probably be the only
one Of that kind presented by the demo
Gratis of Custer. Mrs. Woods candidacy
has been approved by the great majority
of the democratic patrons of the office,
and it may be said to be foregone con-
clusion that when change is made she
will receive the appointment. How

holds presidential commission for four
years from the date Dec. 18th, 1891.
The office belongs to class protected

will be given an opportunity to put

HAS THE FRAM GONE DOWN.
Serious Fears for Capt. Naussn'a
r Arctic Expedition.

LONDON, oct. 27.-The Pail Mall Ga
zette publishes to-day, under the caption,
Has the Fran Gone Down. "a story
regarding Capt. Nausen's Arctic eXplora-
ton vessel.
The story is given on the authority of
a Norwegian traveller, who was inform
ed by a number of Samoieds, n nomadic
people, inhabiting the shores of the Arc
tic Ocean from the mouth of the
Plethora River to the Gulf of Khat-
angskee. that they had sighted the
Fran frequently in the Kara Sea. She
worked heavily and a~wkwardly in the
ice for three days and made no progress.
Russians believed that if the the
Fran was at hiatt time referred to
drifting in the Kara Sea she must have
be-cn compelled to return to avoid be-
ing crushed in the ice.
The Gazette remarks that IT, this
course had been decided upon. news of
the vessel must have been heard ere
this. The question now is whether the
Fran reached New siberia or sunk.

FACED HIS Wife IN COURT.
Willard Pruieu Arraigned for
Abandoning His Family.
Found with n Handsome Brooklyn
Girl In Albany.

Willard Prudon, who formerly lived
at 37G Union street, brooklyn, was very
uncomfurtably this morning. He was
brought back from Albany yesterday by
Detective Mahoncy, of the Bruui;lyn
Central office, to meet his wifc's charge
of abandonment. Pruden's wife, Mrs.

by her sister. She Is ii very stylish
looking little woman, but she seemed to
be mu"h cj,rcWurn.
Iruden is II salesman about twenty
eight years old. His wife is a year or
two younger. She has two children.
Ing. He refused u talk about the
case. When arraigncd he told Judge
Tighc that he had been unable thus far
To- get the advice of counsel. Judge
TlEhe entered a plea of not guilty for
him, and put the case over to Noy. s.
He required Pruden to give a bond of
$500. His brother, Roy pruden, became
his bOndSnIan.
When Mrs. Pruden came up to appear
against her husband their eyes hardly
met. The meeting was painful and was
soon over.
Pruden left his wife and family last
April. His wife has been looking for
him ever since. She finally located him
in Albany. She went to Albany carly
in the week and located Prudrn. She
