THE labor situation in the Black
Hills still remains in an unsettled con-
dition. Neither side in the struggle
At present being waged has made a
decided move since two weeks ago,
when members of several Labor and
Miners Unions to the number OF sew
sral hundred went to the scene of
operations of the South Dakota Mining
Company at Speartish Canyon and
compelled the workmen on large
aume to quit work. Since then the
Mining Company has ceased all opera
tions for an indefinite period. The
wood chopping or clearing crew. which
was not molested by the mob, and all
miners at work for the Company at
Bald Mountain and Garden City,
where the Company has interests,
have been laid off. All that is now
left of what short time ago was
scene of life an activity is few men
who are kept to guard the movable
property of the company.
Many OF the men who were forced to
luit work at Spearfish Canyon, were
Black Hills farmers. men who have
struggled for years for living and
have suffered repeated crop failures.
They have families whom they left ON
the little farms in the valleys and
foot hills while they sought to earn
money during the winaer months when
their services were not need on the
farm. Many OF them hoped in this
Hay to earn enough to keep the wolf
from the uoor and in addition give
them sufficient to purchase seed grain
Tor the coming spring. They were
anxious to work and were we'll satis-
led with the wages paid them. Some
2f them, rather than starve or depend
apon the bounty Of their neighbors,
offered to go back to work. and said if
The company would furnish them arms
they would 60 back and protect them
selves. But OF course this was i'm
possible. In all 200 men and twelve
teams were thrown out OF employment
by the action OF the Unions.
It was the intention OF the Company
to soon have employed fully 500 men.
out now everything is uncertain. The
officers Of the Company announce that
work will not be resumed until such
time as the operations can be carried
On peacefully and without fear that
the workmen will again be subjected
to mob violence.
The people Of the Black Hills are
anxiously awaiting q solution of the
serious problem which now confronts
them. 1t is feared that the present
difficulty will result in driving thous-
ands OF dollars OF capital form the
Black Hills and retard their develop
ment beyond calculation.

THE Santee Indians, who are located

from the Government last week, and
as consequence business was lively In
that town, although the principal part
of their purchases was confined to poor
whisky. Three Of the redskins were

They were arraigned before Justice
