can be made from the product of it's
own prairies. Cotton was once king
corn has swayed the sceptre-sugar is
now the heir apparent Eminent au-
thorities are responsible for the state
ment that 800 beet sugar factories in
the United States would not furnish
the amount of beet sugar consumed by
our people every year. The same au.
thorities assert that the raw materials
for this necessity can be produced on
our own farms with greater certainty
than elsewhere Republi-
can.
The Vermillion people are much in

Bright pros,,.rts

From every section of the Hills good
reports are being received relative to
the advancement and prosperity of the
mining interests. New discoveries are
being constantly made in both n CIV and
old localities. In the vicinity of Du-
mont station on the B. & NJ, ore has
been found that assayed over 5000 gold
to the ton. The discoverer now be-
lieves that he has uncovered the shoot
or vein from which therich float came.
The ore is identical in appearance
with the rich stuff found on the south
end of the Retriever mine in Ruby
Basin, all of which was of such high
grade that it was sacked for shipment
to the smelter. To the north of Du-
mont is situated what is known as the
South Ruby Basin, where the the d. &
d. Smelter company has purchased a
large number of claims and is still pur-
chasing more. Adjoining and in fact
almost surrounded by the smelling
company's ground, is situated::the Blue
Ridge group, embracing fifteen loca-
tions, on which large amount of de-
velopment work has been done with
highly satisfactory results to the own.

ing and siliceous ores in and around

1t Was. All "a Mistake.

Last week the STAR had an item
concerning some Canton, s. d., people
going to Hot Springs, Ark, and having
before had it thrown ut us that people
over in that section could 20 down to
the malarial district of Arkansaw
cheaper than they could come here.
we briefly called attention to the mat
ter. which if true should be corrected.
1t would seem from the following state
ment, which is from thoroughly rep
utable source, that our information
was way off, a fact which we are de-
lighted to know. Our friend SAYS:
"There was party of two went to Hot
Springs. Ark, from Canton, s. D., but
they could not be turned to Hot
Springs, S. d., for the reason that they
had relatives at the former, where they
expected to stay while there. In that
way it would be as cheap or cheaper
than to go to Hot Springs. S. ID. The
railroad fare is nearly double from
Canton to Hot Springs, Ark, what it is
to Hot Springs, S. d. That explains
the matter very fully, and we have no
grounds for complaint only our hotels
and boarding houses are now entertain.
ing people about as we'll and cheaply
as they can be at home, or at their Ar.

Left to the People.

The new text book law. which was
passed with an emergency clause, says
the Sturgis Advertiser. provides that
the people may vote on the question of
free school books at any regular cleo
tion and if carried by simply major
ity the board must provide books free
for all pupils. The same result can be
attained by petition, for the law pro-
vides that when a petition is signed by
majority of the legal voters of dis
trict and presented to the board. free
text books must be furnished the
sbhools. We understand, however,
that this new text book law provides
for the counties to act separately, as
they may see fit, in the matter. 1t is
not for the state to furnish the books,
as the original bill provided.

Tests Made Upon Surface Ore from, the
Lime BELT Shows *1O6 Per Ton.
Present Indications would seem to
warrant the belief that the lime belt
tributary to this place will. in it's fur
ther development. prove as rich, if not
richer than that of the more celebrated
Ragged Top camp of the northern
Hills which is now attracting such
widespread attention throughout the
country. The recent discovery of sur
face ore on this belt, - miles south of
this place shows value that would
fairly justify such results. The new
discovery referred to was made by A.
L. Feay of this place, who. with his
associates. w. A. White. George
Raver and b. r. Wood are the owners
of a group of four claims in Il body,
the two last named being Interested in
only one of the claims. The tests
made upon the ore taken from the sur
face of one of the claims in which the
four gentlemen named are equally in
terested, were five in number, and
careful tests showed values as follows:
SIG, $1,000, ss2, ss7, s1O6 These tests
were made from ore broken from larg o
boulders, called by prospectors turtle
back" boulders, which lie in great pro-
fusion upon the surface of the claim

a Soaking Tine.-Rain and Snow.

1t began raining Tuesday forenoon
and has been at it quite persistently
ever since, night and day, excepting an
occasional brief spell when it seemed
to let go only to get fresh hold. 1t
is an old soaker and no mistake.
While it has been raining here it has
been showing all around us, and we
hear that they have ''f1om three feet
up of the beautiful stuff. which is
very heavy. The Spea,fish train was
abandoned entirely. the B. S NJ train
on the Billings line did not get west of
Gillett, and the Elkhorn Casper line
has been blocked since Sunday-all on
of snow-while here in the
Springs we had but one little furry
Wednesday night, not sufficient to half
cover the ground, it being the overflow
from the surrounding country. 1t has
probably been hard storm on stock,
but splendid thing for the ground.
