The Mineral Palace.

A number of plans have been suggest.
ed for the preservation Of the mineral
palace in Deadwood, and it is evident
that there is a general desire on the part
Of the people of the Black Hills to keep
the splendid collection Of minerals gath
cred for the Quartc-C Centennial intact.
1t would undoubtedly benefit all sections
more than anything else could and it
would he the interest of the mining men
of the three mineral producing counties
to unite upon some practical plan for its
perpeluation.
Mr.. Con&rtt says the uost practical,
according 10 his view, is for the mining
men of Lawrence, Pennington and Gus
ter counties TO unite in an effort to Sc
cure an appropriation from the county
commissioners of each of the above
named counties to defray the expense
of keeping the mineral palace open to
the public and add new exhibits as fast
as the occasions present themselves.
Let this plan be generally known and
mining men and prospectors all over the
Hills would then take an active interest
in its perpetuation. The expense could
be divided up between the several
counties in proper proportions, so that
neither one would feel it as burden.
Say that Lawrence county should appro-
pirate seven hundred and fifty dollars,
the city of Deadwood two hundred and
fifty, and Pennington and Custer coun
ties each two hundred and fifty, this
would provide the sum of fifteen hun
dred dollars yearly, which would be
sufficient to defray all expenses and add
new features to the exhibit, which in a
short time would make the Black Hills
mineral exhibit one of the most valu.
able ones in the United States. A
strong committee of representative min
ing men from each Of the counties
named should be appointed to have full
control of all matters pertaining to the
affairs Of the mineral palace and the ex
hibits, with an executive committee to
look after the details.--Pioneer. Times.
