People who have suffered for months or
years from the pain and inconvenience OF
that common disorder. piles. will look with
skepticism upon the claims OF the makers
OF the new discovery for cure of all forms

nary cures performed by this remedy are
such as TO warrant the investigation of
any sufferer. AsRa case in point the fol-
lowing letter speaks for itself.

Republican County Ticket.
An Enthusiastic Meeting.

A republican rally was held at the
court house in Custer on last Monday
evening. The house was filled Ex-
Governor Sheldon and T. +. Harvey
were in advance announced as the
speakers. w. F. Hanley was chairman
of the meeting. w. T. Benedict repub-
lican nominee for the state senate was
first introduced and he spoke for few
minutes. L. +. Harvey was the next
speaker. Mr.. Harvey has been demo.
crat, and as he said somewhat noisy
one" He addressed the audience at
some length and gave his reasons for
leaving the democratic party and align
ing himself with the republican party.
Gov. Sheldon was afterward introduced =,
and he gave a polished and convincing
address. The meeting concluded at a
late hour. but Notwithstanding the
speakers had the close attention of the
auditors until the end. A remarkable
feature of the evening was the earnest
ness Of the people, and their enthusiasm.
While the speakers deplored the per.
sonalities that had entered into the
present campaign. which constitutes the
principal elements of the campaign as
made by the fusion, yet it was best that
some Of their false statements receive
attention. The hypocrisy of the lead
ers Of the opposition was shown, and
the misstatements that they are making
were corrected. The results of the
meeting are renewed enthusiasm
among republicans, and doubt in the
minds of many of the opposition as to
just where they are at in the matter of
party principle. Thoughtful populists
are considering very seriously whether
there is any hope of an extension of the
principles, hitherto espoused by them,
under the present fusion conditions, and
are seriously considering the matter of
allgning themselves with the republi-
can party for this year at least, as their
leader, Mr.. II. l.. Loucks has done. So
the work goes on, with the people ear
nestly desiring to be right and to vote
right this fall.

CUSTER CITY, SOUTH DAKOTA. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 49, 1898

At the republican senatorial conven-
ton held at Hot Springs last Saturday
w. E. Benedict of this city was nomin-
ated to the Office of senator for the 41st
senatorial district composed of this and
Fall RIVER county. The nomination
was by acclamation, that fact showing
that the republicans Of our sister county
have confidence in the ability and inte-
gritty of our townsman. Mr.. Benedict's s
capability and acquaintance throughout
the district, coupled with the fact of his
nomination by the republican party,
practically insures his election. During
the whole period of his mature years,
he has been to greater or less degree
connected with public affairs, and taken
with his long residence in the state. con-
tinuing over a period of more than
quarter of century, qualities him for
the position. He will go to Pierre no
stranger to his duties or the men with
whom he will SIT in the legislature.

work of effecting sale of timber in this
reserve.
In connection with all timber opera
tions, you will see to it that the tops of

cleaned up and disposed of, with a view
to avoiding waste and preventing the
starting and spread of fires. You are
also charged with the responsibility

In such way, as shall merely thin out
the trees TO the average Of the forest,

In regard to Indians procuring poles

Indians should be regarded as having

Narrow Escape from Fire.

The Vienna block narrowly escaped
an ugly fire Friday night of last week
During the afternoon of that day, Mr.
+. e. Johnson, who occupies a room for
assaying in the rear of his law Offices
was engaged in mkaing some assays, and
while taking the cruicible out of the
furnace it broke. scattering the molten
contents among a lot of waste paper
and box of cupels packed in saw
dust which was Standing near by. Mr.
Johnson put out the flames, and thought
he had succeeded in extinguishirg the
fire entirely. About midnight, how.
ever, smoke and bright light from the
room attracted the attention Of some
one passing by the building, who at
once sounded the alarm of fire. At that
time the fire had burned a small hole
in the floor and was taking hold of the
base boards. 1t was extinguished with
few buckets of water. The supposi-
tion is that some of the metal settled
down into the saw dust where it smoul-
dered for several hours before it started
to burn.

Following are the instructions receiy-
cd by fl. q. Hamaker of this city, super
visor of the Black Hills forest reserve,
from the general land office at Washing.
ton:
lloN. III. u. HAMAKER,
Forest Supervisor Custer, S. ID.
Sir In order that all present, press
ing demand for lumber, cord wood or
other timber supplies from the Black
Hills Forest Reserve, for use within the
state Of South Dakota, may be promptly
met without entailing any unnecessary
delay in etfecting the sales of timber,
the following instructions are issued for
your guidance
While waiting for the completion of
the work of extending the official sur.
veys over the reserve, it is desired that
you will by careful, personal investiga-
tion ascertain, as rapidly as possible,
and report direct to this Office the par
ticular area where timber operations
may be undertaken with advantage to
the forests; bearing in mind the 70 :est
reservation policy Of this off ce to supply
present and future needs for the use Of
timber which can be cut without detrit
ment to the reservation.
In designating the area you will de
scribe surveyed lands by lines as they
will be approximately, when the off
cial surveys are extended over the same,
and by natural objects when found bet
ter for local information, such streams,
ridges, peaks, etc.
Your report should also in every case,
state the kinds and estimate the amount,
in fact, board measure or cords of
wood, Of the timber that may be cut,
above specified size; with the ap-
praised value of same; and cover in de-
til, all the points specified in paragraph
73 Of circular of June 30th. 1897, con-
tanning regulations governing forest re-
serves, being careful also to state the
county, or counties, in which the lands
lie.
In connection with the matter of ap-
praisement, you are advised that, since
the object OF the government in selling
timber is not primarily, to derive rev.
enue therefrom, but to meet local de.
mand therefor, for the legitimate pur-
poses of trade, while securing for the
government proper compensation for
the same, it is desired that you will place
the appraised value of the timber at a
reasonable figure in every instance; :;
and that you will use every endeavor to
make it clearly understood by the com
munitv at large that it is the wish of
the department to set such reasonable
price upon the timber that the people
can pay the same without working
hardship.
While leaving the matter of apprais-
ed values largely in your discretion, it
is suggested as a minimum stumpage
value, not less than $l.O0 per thousand
feet for lumber, and not less than %
cents per cord for wood.
1t is desired that you will submit an
expression of opinion upon this point
with a view Of increasing the appraised
values, in the future, if deemed advis-
able.
You will lose no time in carrying
these instructions into effect, since it
