AndaIucia's staple Product.
Since the dawn of history the neigh
borhood Of Seville has been celebrated for
its olives and oil, which yet form the sta
pie commodity OF Andalucia. There are
hundreds of haciendas, large and small
each of which combines in itself an olive
grove, village, mandatory, and a ma
nor house. The estate Of san Esteban
which we were invited to inspect, is a not
able one-though less extensive than many
because managed on lines comparatively
up to date. 1t contains about about 10000
trees. each Of which yields from two to
three bushels Of olives every year. The
whole product averages five thousand ar
robas (of twenty five pounds. which sell
from SO TO s. the arroba. At the moderate
average of $40 a year, the income from
this small farm is not demonstrating
that there are no crops to be planted over
and over, and no cultivating to be done.

plants an olive, plants for his children's

EXTRACTION FROM MEXICO.
Secretary Hay Transmits Letter to
the District Commissioners.

| the District Commissioners.
The District Commissioners are in re-
eeipt Of letter from the State Depart
ment, relative to the extradition from Mex
leo Of fugitives from justice Of the United
States.
Secretary Hay is transmitting a circular
containing information on the subleco
states that the extradition from Mexico
Of fugitives from the justice Of the United
States has been the subject Of more or less
misunderstanding between the two Govern
ments. The recent failure Of the Mexican
authorities. he says. to surrender. at the
request Of the Governor OF Texas Leonard
Gonzales. accused Of murder in that State.
gave occasion for the careful study and con-
sderation OF the question between the
Mexican Ambassador and the Department
Of State
1T appears says Secretary Hay. that
the failure to grant the extradtiou re-
quested in some cases was due. not TO any
motive of the Mexican Government to re-
fuse the request on the ground Of the Mex
lean citizenship OF the accused. but be-
cause the demanding authorities had not
sufficiently complied with the terms Of the
extradition treaty.
The Secretary thinks that the Gonzales
case is Illustrative Of defects in the OBJ
servance Of the necessary fOrmalities. With
a view. therefore. to arriving at a more
distinct understanding OF the formalities
required under the treaty Of the United
states authorities. Secretary Hay writes
that he invited the Mexican Ambassador 10
a conference on the subject
At this conference says the Sec
rotary. the Ambassador explained the
laws OF the Mexican Republic bear
ing on the question, and stated that
the laws Of the several States are substan-
TALLY the same as those Of the Mexican
Federal Government He afterward furn-
ished the Department a memorandum OF
the conference and also copy in English
and Spanish OF the provisions Of the Mex
lean code The observance Of the strict
requirements Of the said laws on the part
OF the demanding authorities will it IL be-
lieved. lead to satisfactory results In the
future"
Secretary Hay closes his letter by saying
that within the experience Of the Depart
ment the corresponding requirements OK

I Work at the Crown Hill.

There has been an increase in the
capital stock Of the Crown Hill Min
ing company recently, sufficient
to enlarge the concentrating plant.
at the Spokane mine, in Pennington
county, says the Pioneer Times.
The company also intends to sink
the shaft on the property from the
presentlevel, 300 feet, to the 5OO-toot
level, and to erect ! cyanide plant
on the Grown Hill group OF mining
claims, at Grown Hill station. The
cyanide plant will not be put up un
til next spring. The addition to the
concentrating plant will be built
this winter.
The Grown Hill company is said
toSbe in good financial condition, and
its property has developed to point

The Methodist Meetings.

Last Monday DR.. J. w. Robinson
of Hot Springs, accompanied by his

talented singer and isa decided

ings. DR.. Robinson is an able and
eloquent preacher, as all who have
heard him during these services or
during his former pastorate in this
city say. The attendance has been
good thus far, though not as large
as it should be. On Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday evenings Dr..
Robinson preached in his usual clear,
fe'vtnt and strong manner the Cos.

the small plant in operation, and the
companyin increasing the capacity,
will materially lessen the cost of
production.
The company has 5000 tons OF ore
on the dump at the Crown Hill mine,
that is worth on an average So a ton.
When the company first acquired
this group of claims it was imposs

great development in the cyanide
process has since given the property
big value, and the company has
now decided to work the property.

A Business Chunge.

On Wednesday W. L. Gardner
sold his drug store to Charles M.
Fa!lon, who is now in charge. The
new proprietor has been in Mr..
Gardner's employ during the past
two years and has made host OF
friends among our people. He is a
competent, trustworthy and ener-
getic young man, courteous to all,
and will without doubt make sue
cess of his chosen business. But it.
will seem strange to enter the store
after the old proprietor has retired
w. L. Gardner has been on duty
there for twenty years and more,
and his genial manner, fair treat
ment and good business manage.
ment during all this time has won
for him friends far and near who
will deeply regret seeing him retire.
He has always done his full share
toward the upbuilding of Rapid City
and his friends and business asso.
ciates will miss him from his old
post OF duty. Yet, if a successor is
to be chosen, The UNION knows of
no better. more capable and more
deserving young man than the gen
ial, whole-souled Charley Fallon to
fill the place. So here's to the new
proprietor's success, with the hope
that he may plosper as the years
go by. That W. L. Gardner will do
we'll at whatever he turns his hand
goes without saying. He has always
done this, and his host of friends
will hope for an indefinite continu-
ance of this phase Of his experience

Take. a Gloomy View.

San Francisco, Cal, Dec. 5.-"It
will be fifteen to twenty years be-
fore the PHILIPPINES are on the same
footing as the United States"
This statement is made by Captain
9. E. Polk of Company I, Forty
third Infantry, who arrived in this
city today on the United States
ship Kinuck. He is invalided home
on account of wounds. Speaking of
war in the Philippines, he said:
II wish that the people of the
United States could understand con-
ditions that exist in the Philippine
Islands. 1t will take fifteen or
twenty yaars before those people
are on the same peace basis as we
are here in the United States. The
conditions at present are such that
the United States Government can
not say to any one city or town in
any of the islands, Come here,
will protect your because of lack OF
troops.
1T will take $4,000 men to estab-
lish peace as i: should be, and as
long as the United Slater hesitates
about sending this number there
will be the same kind of warfare
that is COW being conducted.
''The truth OF the matter is the
Filipin os have come to think Ameri.
cans softer than anything they
have ever had to do with before.
OF thousands of prisoners that have
been taken during the war, there
are but few who are not at the pres
ent time on the line fighting.
"The volunteer regiments want
to come home, and, unless they are
allowed this privilege, none of them
will re.enlist. So far as Senator
Hale's bill is concerned, extending
the time of enlistment of volunteer
regiments to three years, l can say
that there is not an officer in the
volunteer army in the Philippines
that will be governed by it. They
will all resign, even if it is done as
a matter of principle. y
