San Francisco, Oct. 23.-Gen. Frederick

of advantage to the regiment or to my

got its order to come home through the
influence of certain politicians, and now
comes the absurd statement that If these
same politicians had not exerted a mighty
influence l would not have been returned

Outlanders at the Cape Want Him
Prosecuted.

Prosecuted,
cape Town, Oct. 29.-The capture of Gen.
Ben Niljoen is cause of great satisfaction
to the Outlanders. He is the author of a
blasphemous and violent pamphlet virtu-
ally intended to incite the Dutch of the
colony to rebellion and it is sincerely hop
ed that he viii be brought to trial and pun
ished as he deserves.
1t IS difficult to gauge exactly the amount
of feeling excited among the Dutch by the
recent British victories. Their behavior, on
the whole, is excellent, considering the
great amount of sympathy they feel for
their kinsmen in the Transvaal and Orange
Free State.

Hot Springs, Sylvan Lake and Spear.
fish are three Black Hills summer re.
sorts that are as attractive in their
way as any places of their kind in the
west. And they are as different as any
three places can he.
Hot Springs is a health resort-a
good place to get rid of ones rheuma-
tism and to enjoy life while renewing
ones youthful vigor.
Sylvan Lake is Il pretty nook in the
Heart of the Hills, an easy-going, cool,
dreamy spot, where hot weather is un-
known.
Speartish is II thrifty town of per-
haps 1,50O people, not particularly not
able except in one respect-the beauty
of The railroad ride to it. You should
make the trip to realize how fine it is.
There is nothing more exhilarating,
even in the Rockies.
During July, the Burlington Route
will run two cheap excursions to Hot
Springs and Custer Sylvan Lalle)-one
on the 18th. the other OF the Sth. One
fare, plus 81, for the round trip. Tick
cts good 30 days-long enough to en-
able you to visit every point of interest

untold benefit from the crisp air and
healing waters of this northern SAM
tarium.

Simply because a man is n soldier
does not always make him any the less
a populist or Il politician. Gov. Lee
has his political friends in the Philip
pines who would naturally endorse his
actions. Yet a very small percentage
Of the South Dakota troops endorse
Gov. Lees letter to President McKin-
ley. 1t would be strange indeed if the
boys did not want to come home. They
have been away a long time and have
had a terrible time of tan awful
time. Their friends are all anxious to
nave them return to their homes
quickly as possiblc-but comparatively
Few can endorse the %demagogic letters
that Gov. Lee is writing to President

It is pleasant to have our resort so
we'll filled with strangers. Now let our
residents make it pleasant for them,
treat them nicely and generously so
that they will go away and speak a
good word for Hot Springs. We want
them all to come again. No one can
afford to treat them as though this
was their last chance to make a cent
Off from them. In fact VIC believe none
of u permanent business lei and
residents will do anything of the kind,
but they should try and see that nc
n else does that thing. If Hot
Springs please all the people who
come here this year they will come
again next year and bring many of
their friends with them.

The so-called Philippine press cen
sorship didn't seem to prevent Char
ley jackson from freely expressing
himself. We guess the boys can tell
just about what they think about
things over there if they want to-but
they don't all see things alike-no
o than we people do right here at
home. For instance, in these days of
better times you will find those who
kick just as hard as during the demo-
cratic panic. 1t all depends on the
fellow who does the talking-and then
it is a fact that some poor mortals
seem fated to have hard luck all their
lives anyway, and we can't blame them
much for kicking. Fate, aud other
things, are against them.

Hot Springs is delighted to have so
many educators here this week-so
many people who are devoting their
lives to educating the young of the
Black Hills. For nine months of the
year they have a great responsibility,
and we hope that though they are now
in Hot Springs for the purpose of be-
coming still mor proficient in their
work, by receiving instruction in the
later methods from the leading edu-
Gators of the land, that the short time
they are here may be full of pleasure,
aside from the pleasure there always
is to intellectual people in acquiring
more knowledge. We want their so
journ here to be Il delightful outing to
them. They are all gladly welcomed
to the city and to our homes.
