The venue measure prepared by
the silver men in the last legislature
has been u success from the beginning
and is gradually pulling the state out
OF the slough where she had been
placed by defaulting and embezzling
republican officials.-SiouX Fall Press.
Yet when it is stated that the M.
tional revenue measure prepared and
passed by republican congress has
placed the United States treasury in
better condition than since the repub-
licans were in power before, such pa
pers as the Press are furious in their
denial.

State Treasurer Phillips has called

indebtedness of the state to s6s2,o0o,
most of it at 3 per cent and the high

$4,000 more of bonds that can he tax
en- up before 1902 and these will UNI

FROM THE
j. 1. McClung Writes an Interesting Let
ter from Lake Lfnderman.


ter from Lake Linderman.
The following letter is from j.. +.
McClung of Edgemont and was written
to Walter Anderson from Lake Lin
derman under. Northwest Territory,
under date of April 9th.
ut was my intention on leaving
home to write when / should have
reached this country and l am now
seated on a sack of clothing and using
a tin plate for Il table.
I'VE left Edgcmont on the oath of
February and Seattle March l. We
reached Dyea March LIST and passed
the custom house on the summit of
Chilkoot pass with our supplies April
nd. We have our tent, clothing and
outfit here, ten miles from the summit,
but our provisions are still at the top
of the pass.
1--WE have had some very pleasant
weather and also some very rough. AS
to work: The getting.gso III supplies
from Dyea to this place is very difficult
and laborious, or very expensive. We
hope to get down on Lake Bennett in
two weeks and build a boat and get
started down toward Dawson at the
opening of navigation, probably about
June list.
"Have done more hard work in the
past six weeks than for two years prior.
My health and appetite is excellent,
which will apply to all of Our party
j. L. Hutchinson, Harry Dunn, Z. r.
Black and myself. There is a vast
throng here going SIN" as we term it
those going to the Klondike.
'You no doubt noticed the account
of the snow slide on the summit of
Chilkoot pass on the Bird inst. Many
who came from Seattle on our boat
were caught and it is a wonder our
party were not. We did notgo to work
that morning owing to the snow storm.
Had we done so we would probably
have been caught. as II line of travel
would have been where the slide oc-
Cured. The extent of the slides COW

SO bodies have been taken out and
there are doubtless 20 more buried un-
der from 20 to 80 feet of snow, together
with many thousand pounds of pro-
visions. The trip to this plrce is hard
and dangerous POSSIBLY worse ahead)
and / doubt if such 81 movement as is
now going on will be justified. How
ever. | have neverseen harder work per.
formed with as little fault being found
by SO large Il number.
The people along the trail are more
numerous than they are on the streets
of Edgemont, and 1 might add Hot
Springs.
"As to the duty, 1000 pounds of mis-
%cellaneous stuff will cost about $50
y license to mine is $40 n year.

a#*
Dave Eastman, of Roberts county,
S II candidate for commissioner of
sciluoi and public lands.
John Shanlber, of Hutchinson. and

BILE candidates for treasurer.
.*#:s
Prof. Collins, of Clay, Prof. Lange. of

are candidates for state superintend-
ent of schools.
Maj. Picker. it is said. is uncertain
whether or not he will be Il candidate
before the coming state convention,
but if he is Il candidate it may be for
governor, and not for congress.
**#
The friends OF Charley Burke from
Pierre were down to the committee
meeting in force. Pierre people gointo
an enterprise o. this KIND with a per-
%sistant energy which usually wins out.
and Charley Burke is an all right man.
##s
Sam II. Elrod. of Clark. has devel-
oped il good deal of positive strength
as Il congressional candidate. He is
energetic and able; possessing the con
lidence of his wide circle of acquaint-
ances, and will go into the convention
| with q strong following.
#**
NJ. Il. Greeley, who is most in the
minds of the people as the republican
candidate for governor will not take
any hold in the preliminary campaign.
He is engaged i'll farmers institute
work. and will be out of the state all
summer. LII the nomination comes to
him he will accept it, but he does not
seek it. lie prefers that it shall go
elsewhere.
VIM. Gardner. of i,apid City, is a
a candidate for the republican con
gressional nomination. and is likely to
be IL factor to be reckoned with in the
convention regardless of how the Dead
wood differences + settled. Judge
Gardner is a MAI of exceptional bril-
lance. popular wherever known and
idoliZed in the southern Hills.
Kirk Phillips has gone to the Black
Hills to look v his political fences
He, too, is uncertain whether to stand
for congress or the governorship and
he don't quite understand the Van else
movement. There seems to be a new
alignment of forces in Lawrence county
The Moody people. hitherto dominant
and friendly to Phillips, and opposed
to Van else, are now with Van else
and have brought to him the support
of the Pioneer Times. Van Cise is able
and honest, a mar of excellent promi
nence. and very popular in the state
Phillips, too, has marked ability and
popularity, and James Mum, who wa.
down from Deadwood this week, says
Phillips friends expect to carry Law
,ence and other counties in the Hills
despite Van Cise's candidacy. Aprett,
fight is in prospect out there, upon tn,
result of which much depends.
