The Celebration at Custer.

The celebrati Jon at Custer was one
of the good old fashioned kind with
foot racing, horse racing, base ball and
fireworks galore. No serious accidents
occurred to mar the enjoyment of the
occasion, and the crowd for the most
part was orderly and sober. Hot
Springs was we'll represented, about
thirty five OF forty from here being in
attendance.
The base ball game bet xeen Custer
and Hot Springs was won by the former
by score of lSsto Is. This was a
remarkably good record for the Hot
Springs boys as they had no regular
organization, and had had no practice

Government Aid in Irrigation.

Hon. Frank w. Mondell, Wyoming's
able representative in congress, spoke
as follows regarding government aid
in irrigation in an interview at Denver
a few days since:
"The western states must stick to-
gether. The best way to secure gov
ernment aid in reclaiming arid lands is
one of the most important questions
we have to consider. In many ways
the bill drafted at the meeting of state
engineers at Cheyenne, at which / was
present, is good. In the first place
under it, the government would have
no immediate control over the distri
button of the water after the systems
we're completed. One of the first irri.
CATION bills introduced went so far as
to give the government the power tc
condemn existing water rights. Pro.
vision for too much government sup.
ervision has killed several such bills
Personally, believe no state should
have the benefit of government aid un
less it's irrigation system is in thu
hands of proper bureau or depart
ment such as exists in Colorado, Wyo
ming and several other states which
have state engineers"

Expected at sioux Falls and Pierre that
the :Stlent Man" Will Likely
Get the PlaCa.

Special kilograms from Sioux Falls
and Pierre arc to the effect that Hon.
A. B. Kittredge will, in all probility, be
appointed United States Senator to
serve until March 4, 1903, the date
when Senator Kyle's term would have
expired.
Congressman Martin in an interview
with a Sioux City Journal reporter
Wednesday said that Gov. Herried has
undoubtedly offered the senatorial
appointment to Mr.. Kittredge. Mr..
Martins name has frequently been
mentioned in connection with the ap-
pointment, but in answer to direct
question about his attitude in the
matter he said: mo, have not been
candidate for the appointment My
name has been mentioned, know, but
did nothing to organize any campaign
for the place. Whatever my friends
did was gratuitous. l have not be-
sought the appointment in any way,
but should the governor see fit to ten
der it to me of course should accept"
"But what about year from now,
when the campaign will be on for the
state legislature that elects senator?"
| Mr.. Martin was asked.
"That's another matter" he replied,
and as he continued he indicated that
he would be an active candidate for the
place then, as far as he could Judge by
present conditions and circumstances.
