INVOKING REFERENDUM.
Pierre People Invoke Referendum on
Saloon Men.

Pierre People Invoke Referendum on
Saloon Men.
About two years ago an ordinance
was passed in Pierre fixing certain
streets on which no saloon licenses
should be granted. This remained I'M
disturbed until within few days ago,
when the city council, by a bare ma
jority, and after two trials, passed an
ordinance repeating the old dead line"
ordinance, and granting license for q
saloon within what had been the pre-
scribed district. The mayor vetoed
the ordinance, and 1t was impossible
to secure enough votes to carry it
over his veto, but the license had been
granted and the interested parties
were taking steps to begin business in
the location selected.
This action is now held up by the
filing of a referendum petition to
bring the action Of the council grant
ing the license to a vote Of the peo-
pie. Under the law governing the ref
erendum OF city matters, a special
election on the subject must be called
within thirty days, and the people will
express themselves on the matter. AS
a long petition was presented to the
council against the wiping out of the
dead line" the election will probably
be interesting. This is the first effort
to invoke the referendum in Pierre.

D--Sir: In reply to your letter of the
the 9th inst, relative to the construc-

the honor to inform you that the sec
rotary of war authorizes the construc-

racks and officers quarters, to provide
for a garrison of eight (S) troops of
cavalry. Bids for a part Of the neces-
sary buildings have been invited, and
the remaining buildings will be carried
over until next spring, when 1t "a.

Helen Moons Case.

New Providence, Ia. Oct. 18th.
The wonderful case of little three
year-old Helen Moon continues to be
the talk of the neighborhood and ev-
eryone is rejoicing with Mr.. and Mrs.
e. v. Moon, the happy father and
mother.
II will be remembered that this
sweet little girl was given up by the
doctors with Dropsy. She was SO far
gone that her eyes were closed UP and
her body bloated till 1t was purple.
After everything else had failed
Dodd's Kidney Pills were used and to
the joy and surprise of everyone she
commenced to improve.
This improvement resulted in COM
plete good health and she continues to
keep strong and well and without the
slightest symptom of the Dropsy left.
The doctors are as much bewildered
as anyone at the wonderful cure OF
this desperate case.

GOLD FIELD.

Four Dollars Per Ton Cleaned Up.
The last cleanup at the cyanide
plant OF the SpeSrfish Mining and Re-
duction company yielded bar of bull
ion worth $4,000, after run of fif-
teen days, at the rate OF 800 tons per
day.
This is the largest cleanup ever
made at the plant for a run covering
an equal period of time, the average
heretofore having been about SIS, 900.
A system of ore chutes, similar to
those found on the Spearfish compa-
ny's group, is being developed by the
Victoria Mining company, whose
claims lie near the Spearlish compa-
ny's holdings, in the same formation.
A mammoth new mining company is
being launched for operations in ths
Bear Gulch region, twelve miles south
west of Spearflsh. Denver men are be-
hind the enterprise. They have I'M
der bond some 10000 acres of ground
In that region, taking in all the prom
inent properties around Bear Gulch.
Among the possessions are the old
Inter-Ocean mine, the Callahan prop
erty, the Ticknc9 group and ground
others OF Spearfish.
They are under contract to pay
nearly $1,000,000 for the property.
The Inter-Ocean property belonged
to the Inter-Oceen Mining company,
and there is in Connection with the
. ground twenty-stamp mill in good
state of repair. which was built in '93
and operated for one season on ore
from the Inter-Ocpan mine
The Callahan property consists Of
several hundred acres. all of it patent
ed. The area embraces a large terri
tory on which placer mining has been
carried on successfully during the last
twenty-five years During the last five
years some rich ore has been encoun-
tered, and these leads are now being
followed.

Orders Of Admiral Casey Probably
Have Been Misunderstood.

rave Been miSuHueTStOVOs
Washington, Oct. IL. - The Colon
bian government, on complaint of Gen.
Salazar, In command Of the forces on
the isthmus, has demonstrated with
the United States minister at Bogota
respecting Admiral Casey's reported
refusal to allow troops and munitions
of war to cross the isthmus. The Co
lcmbian government said 1t did not
see how IL could suppress the rebellion
IL 1t were not allowed to move troops
freely in it's own territory.
The officials here are confident that
Admiral Casey's order has been mis-
understood They feel sure that IL he
stopped the transfer of Colombian
troops or war munitions II was only
for some temporary reason. The Col
omuian government has been sIsured
liz a courteous manner that the Uaited
States government has no intention
of trenching on Colombian sovereign
ty, which is guaranteed by special
treaty provision.

GuNB Eats THAT ENTER BEYOND
DEAD LINE WILL BE

Panama, Colombia, Oct. IA con-
ference between the goverI ent rep
resentative and Rear Admiral Casey
took place yesterday. The admiral
subsequently said the object of the
conference was to see II the govern
ment and the revolutionists could
come to some agreement or arrange
the basis for such agreement.
He could not say much on the sub
ject, for he had only one side Of the
questiC /. He considered. however,
that the terms offered in President
Harquin's amnesty decree were liberal.
His only idea IN comforting with the
authorities here was to end the strife,
which he considered unpatriotic, for IL
not only ruins the country but delays
the steps being taken looking to the
completion Of the canal. He did not
see from the arguments he had heard
that there was much difference In the
principles
Upheld by Either
of the Colombian parties, except in
matters relative to the church.
Admiral Casey is studying the terms
which the government offered and in
a day or two will send communica-
ton to Gen Herrera, the revolutionary
commander, expressing his views on
the situation, and will propose that
the general hold a conference with
Gen. Salazar, the government COM
msnder
Admiral Casey received last Satur-
day Gen. Herrera's answer to Com
mander McLean's communication no.
tifying him that the United STATES had
assumed control of the railroad line,
but he would not divulge the contents
of the letter, copy Of which he sent
to Washington. According TO report
Gen. Herrera's note is couched in very
strong and offensive language.
Regarding his refusal to allow the
Colombian government TO transport
troops on the railroad, the admiral
said the United States had taken this
action in order to maintain free tran
sit.
Must Not Bombsrd Panama.
It Is not known how long the United
States forces will prevent the govern
ment from using the trains TO trans
port troops, but IL is admitted that
Admiral Casey will not allow Gen.
Herrera to lombard Panama, and 1t
is asserted that II the revolutionary
gunboat Padilla comes within limit
assigned by the American admiral the
latter will sink her. On the other
hand, he will not permit the govern
ment gunboats to provoke the Padilla
into venturing within the limit re-
ferred to.

slsseton People Anxious to Secure the
Great Northern.

The people of Sisseton are just now
interested in securing another rail-
road. 1t is believed there that the
Great Northern stands ready to ex-
tend its line into Sisseton as soon as
the people are ready to make the prop
er inducements in the matter of right
of-way ana depot privileges, and that
just now public sentiment is warming
up on the question. Traffic on the
Milwaukee is already much congested,
on account of the one-train service. and
1t is thought that such showing could
be made to the Great Northern as
would induce it to extend to that point.

The latter, after conducting the usual

stranger as the Rev. Mr.. Smith. And
that gentleman, rising promptly, with

After the service Mr.. Smith asked

A NEW BASIS FOR OLD BONDS
Pierre Will Pay One-Haf of Its Ole
Bonded Indebtedness.


There are no judgments standing
against the city of Pierre nor are
there any unpaid obligations past due.
Through the efforts OF the business
men of Pierre, the old capital debt has
been placed upon new basis. by the
issuance of new bonds for one-half the
original amount, and the first install
ment of interest paid on these new
bonds. Pierre now has her debt in
such shape that the interest and prin-
cipal payments can be met when due
without entailing heavy burdens upon
the taxpayers. and in the course of a
reasonable length of time the debt
will be extinguished entirely. This
arrangement, which was fairly arrived
at between the city and it's creditors,
is cause for much rejoicing with all
who have the interests of the city al
heart.
