A New Pioneer Society.

- As an outgrowth Of the refusal Of the
of Black Hills Pioneers to amend
their organic act, and admit to member
ship persons coming to the Hills during
the year 1877. a meeting was held at
Deadwood on Saturday evening last for
the purpose of taking the preliminary
steps towards the creation Of a new or
ganiZation to be composed Of persons
who arrived in the Hills during the
year above named. Personally we have
no objection whatever to such organiza.
ton, as il could, in no event, affect US.
as we are not now, nor will we become q
member of any such society that en-
braces a scope greater than that of q
single county. We have in previous
issues stated our objections to the for
nation Of a society Of this character
which embraces in its scope the entire
Black Hills region. and a part Of Wyom-
ing. while by reason Of remote residence
from Deadwood, where all business
meetings are held, and the conse.
quent expense Of visit thereto. virtu-
ally debars remote sections from repre-
sentation. Il has been, and is still OUT
opinion that the better plan would be
to establish county examinations, and
hold annual reunions Of the came al
prominent points in the different oun
ties, which would largely obviate the
objection stated. While we do not per.
