Klondikers Must Wait.

The gittering accounts concerning
the fabulous richness Of the Klondike
gold fields have created desire in the
minds of miners TO reach the golden
goal in advance of the rush in the
coming spring, and not a few have al
ready started expecting to get in by
way Of the Stickeen river and Telegraph
creek A we'll posted writer, who has
he'd much experience in that region,
and who has thoroughly investigated
the situation, says that those who 60
before February lst will meet with dis
appointment.
He says that, while it is true that the
Stckeen river freezes over above a
point where the tide does not dislodge
the ice, it is also true that it is i'm
possible to make headway until the
heavy fall of snow is sufficiently melted
during the day to cause a crust TO form
at night, upon which good headway
may be made. While it is true that, as
rule, only from Is inches TO three feet
of snow falls in the interior of Alaska
during the winter, six to eight foot
fall is not uncommon near the coast.

The Aberdeen Daily News states that
one John II. King and associates are
making school house campaign Of the
Sisseton county, urging farmers to con-
tribute $40 each, SO in cash and note
for Sl5," to insure the passage of the
free homestead bill now before congress.
This money, it is alledged. King will use
to persuade congressman to do their
duty. Senator Kyle is very emphatic
in denouncing this scheme, declaring it
to be confidence game, pure and
simple. He says the congressman from
this state will do their duty without a
money consideration. and urges the
settlers on the Sisseton reservation to
keep their cash. liking and his friends
should succeed they would collect the
neat little sum of $4,000.

A Change of Heart,

The Omaha Bee, in a recent issue
says: Mrs. Marietta NJ. Bones of South
Dakota, uow living in Yankton county,
is writing letters to the papers opposing
extension Of the suffrage to women,
notwithstanding that she was for nine
years annually elected vice president of
the National Woman Suffrage associa-
ton for South Dakota. In letter to
the Yankton Press and Dakotan she de-
clares that her opposition to woman
suffrage comes from attending so many
of the suffrage meetings. She says she
is perfectly familiar with their methods
of inyeighhng good mothers (for their
ngitators are principally y spinsters or
childess women In their ranks" and
she has been busy watching the effect
on such victims, and in a number Of in.
stances learned that happiness in their
homes was destroyed by that member.
ship" She also declares boldly that the
temperance cause will not be promoted
by the enfranchisement Of women and
says that many of the prominent suflra-
gists are opposed to temperance.

The Governors Proclamation.


In keeping with the proclamation of
the president of the United States, I,
South D3kotf,a u8aSABBn96 q, thsststs. .at
25th day of November, A. D. 1897, day
Of thanksgiving and praise throughout
the state On that day let all places Of
business be closed that all people may
worship and return thanks TO the Al
mighty Father for His many mercies
and watchful care over them during the
past year.
We have been preserved from famine,
pestilencs and storm and our fields and
herds have maintained us In reasonable
independence, we are not afflicted with
the extremes Of poverty and wealth
which mark the conditions in other To-
calities, and by comparison at least we
have much to be thankful for as well as
much TO hope for in the future. We
are grateful to the Giver of all good, for
the blessings we have enjoyed. While
acknowledging the blessings Of Provi-
dence we are not unmindful that the
misfortunes which have befallen our
fellow men in foreign lands have con-
tributed much to our prosperity. For
his bounlies bestowed upon US, let Us
be truly thankful, and out Of ouI
abundance let us not forget to con
tribute to the less fortunate, both a.
! home and abroad.
Given under my hand and the grea
seal of the state of South Dakota, this
| II lth day Of November, A. ID. 1897.

Locations ere Good

Henry N. Copp, publisher of Copp's
Mining law, wri.es that mining loca-
tions made on January lst are valid.
This will probably set at ease the minds
of great many mine owners and pros
pectors who have had some doubts
about the matter.
About q year ago the newspers
throughout the mining regions pub
lishsd dispatch sent out by the Asso-
ciated Press to the effect that Hoke
Smith, the secretary Of the interior, had
handed down decision in which he
held that mining locations made on
January LIST were invalid by reason of
having been made on a legal holiday.
This caused no little excitement among
the prospectors of the Hills as we'll as in
all other sections 1t is a we'll known
fact that great many locations and re-
locations are made on the 1st day Of
January. 1t did not make any material
difference here. as the locations were
made just the same and We have not
heard Of one instance where a claim
was contested on that account. But the
mine owners desire to be right.
A short time ago Attorney r. C..
Hayes wrote to Henry N. Copp, and
asked for information. He received q
reply yesterday to the effect that no
such decision of Hoke Smith or any
other secretary has ever been handed
down and promulgated; on the contrary
thousands of locations made on the 1st
Of January have been held by the in
terror department as valid. 1t is be-
lieved that the telegram purporting to
have been decision of the secretary,
was fake. pure and simple. by the
Associated Press. - Pioneer-Timcs.

Bad Wreck Near Chadron.

A Chadron, Neb special 10 the Sioux
City Journal gives the following account
Of bad railroad wreck near that place
on Monday last: "The coolness of
VIM. Coo .ey, engineer of the eastbound
passenger train, this morning saved the
lives Of a half hundred passengers.
Through freight No. 27. bound west,
in charge of Conductor Woldorf and
Engineer Lonners, received orders TO
meet No. 4, the eastbound passenger
train, at Bordeaux, a flag station seven
miles east Of here, but Engineer Con.
nors misconstrued or forgot the orders
and came tearing down the hill towards
Chadron few minutes after l2 O'Clock
last night. No. 4, which leaves here at
1901, was on time, and the engineer,
VIM. Cooley, had his train under full
headway, when suddenly the headlight
Of the freight flashed before him not
fifty feet away. Calling to his fireman
to jump, he reversed his engine, set the
air brakes and leaped from his cab.
The two trains came together with ter
rife crash, but the application Of the
air and the reversing of the engine had
arrested the motion Of the passenger,
and when the collision accurred it was
beginning to move in the same direction
~ the freight. Both engines are total
loss, and two cars Of merchandise and
two cars of mules were completely
demolished. The merchandise was
ruined and the mules killed. A large
quantity Of mail matter was damaged
and many Of the addresses Of the letters
