The Dakota Hot Springs.

The Hot Springs OF Arkansas have
long been deSerVedly popular, for the
reason that there has been no other
place that has filed the requirements
of both health and a pleasure resort.
This state of affairs has changed. The
Hot Springs of South Dakota have. in
recent years. been thrown open to the
people, and because of their delightful
situation and great curative qualities,
are becoming more popular every day.
Situated as this resort is, in the famous
Black Hills, in the midst of beautiful
mountain scenery, possessing that pc
culiar balsamic atmosphere which is in
itself health giving, with waters that
are pronounced by experts equal if not
superior to those of any other mineral
springs in the world, it will soon out
rank any other resort.
The hotel accommodations are of the
Observation-Disclosures with all the modern
improvements and conveniences. The
Evans hotel. built of pink SAND stone.
with steam heat, electric lights, ana
every room An outside one, is easily q
best conducted house between Chic go
and Denver. Fine bath house are
connected with the best hotels The
rates of all the hotels are very reason
more than picturesque-it is wonder
ful. The morvelous wind Cave" the
falls of Fall River; Battle Mountain,
the old Indian battle ground; Dead
wood and the gold fields; and the
famous Bad Lands are all within driv-
ing distance. The mammoth plunge
bath at the Springs is noted as being
one of the largest natatoriumS in the
world. So healthful are the surround
ings, and so many the conveniences of
this Carlsbad of America" that it is
rapidly becoming the Mecca" not
only for 'invalids, but for pleasure
seekers as we'll. The Burlington
Route reaches there il day and
half from st. Louis. Pullman sleepers
and free chair cars on train No. Is run
to Lincoln, and from Lincoln free chair
cars and sIeepers run through to the
Springs.

THE CITY ELECTION.

The election Of city officers for Great
Bend, which occurs on April I'd, is be-
ginning to take public attention to the
exclusion of most everything else.
The tissue seems to be whether the
policy Of last year in assessing a fine
on joints shall be followed, or whether
set of city officers are chosen. pledged
to the SUPPRESSION of joints-a thing
which, blythe way, cannot be done, no
matter how the officers are pledged, or
who they may be.
The reform element has had it's
convention and named it's ticket, COM
posed of good citizens, but all, or most
all, opposed to licensing joints. Be
sides this, they are, with possibly three
exceptions, all republicans.
The machine" element, the straight
party men who consider party organ
ization first have called a convention
to meet on Friday evening, the 22d
inst. the last day that nominations
could beamade, in order, doubtless, to
head off any of the brethren who
might feel inclined to "kick'' on the
ticket the party managers have slated.
That convention will without doubt
name a ticket composed of men in
favor of collecting fine from the
joints.
Great Bend being overwhelmingly a
republican town, the democrats will
not attempt to nominate ticket, but
will, as individuals, support the men
best qualified to fill the Offices to the
advantage of the city's prosperity and
good.
The contest will be between republic
cans. If the straight republican ticket
wins it will confirm what we have
always commended was the regular
republican policy IN Kansas, i. e., that
as party it has no use for the detested
prohibition law except to use it as a
snare to catch sucksrs-the suckers
being the other element of the party
which nominated the reform ticket.
If the reform" ticket wins, it will
mean that the men who believe in po-
litical honesty are in the majority in
Great Bend, and that they have at last
resolved to cut loose from the ''gang'
and vote as independent citizens.
Democrats can quietly vote as their
best judgement dictates, and laugh at
the trouble in the republican camp.
