Custer weekly chronicle. [volume] (Custer City, S.D.) 1890-1931, 1901-07-13

1t is reported from Washington that
the secretary of the interior has taken
up the question of recognizing the for.
est reserves OF the several western states.
and in the next year many radical
changes will unquestionably be made.
Already two of the largest reserves on
the Pacific coast have been extensively
altered. After making a thorough in
yestigation Of the various reserves the
department has concluded, as has been
long contended in the west, that the for
est reserves as originally created en-
braced many lands that were of littls
value for their timber, but which were
Of much worth as farm lands or Tor
other purposes. 1t is the determination
of the secretary to hereafter eliminate
all such lands as speedily as they can
be examined, surveyed and charted.

1t is given out in high railrosd circles
in Chicago that as soon as Hill and the
Great Nortfieth get the Burlington sys.
tenn September la line will be built
from the Burlington & Missouri at Bur

west Of Chamberlain and Pierre and in!

of way secursd ffom the Nebraska line
north to point west Of Chamberlain
1t is now said that Hill owns this sur
vey, and it is directly in line with the
proposed new railroad north from the
Burlington Missouri into western South
Dakota. 1t is generally admitted that
Hill Is no friend of the Milwaukee and
NorthW esteffI railroads. He is in the
business to take all the trade from these
systems that he can. He has looked
over the map and found that neither oi
these railroads pass through the rich
cattle cot1ntfy of the western Dakotas.
Neither the Burlington nor Great North
ern systems tap this Dakota cattle coUn-
try. The cotitluslon is that Hill will
lose no time in beating these roads into
the Hills. This is expected to stir both
the Milwaukee and northern roads to
action. Officials Of each of these roads
admit that they are keeping their eyes
on the situation in western Oak ota. II

The contrast between the weather
through the east and what we are ex-
periencing ir the Black Hills cannot be
appreciated except by those who have
experienced it in both places. From all
parts in the United States comes re.
ports to the effect that the weather is
oppressiyely hot, and that many pros
trations and deaths from the excessive
heat have resulted. In New York City
alone it is estimated that the deaths
from the heat in six days was over a
thousand. We have had some tolerably
warm weather this week here. but with
the cool breezes and cool nights we have
no cause to complain. No heat prostra-
tions reported in the Black Hills.
