New Ruling for aomesteaders

The department of the interior has
made new ruling upon final proof not
ices that is of great interest and import
ance to homesteaders. The new ruling
reads as follows:
Residence and improvement alone
are not sufficient to establish or sustain
homestead claim. The new law re
quires cultivation of the land, also.
Where the land is shown to be more
suitable for grazing and the production
Of hay than for the cultivation Of crops
requiring the breaking ofthe land. proof
that it has been used in good faith for
these purposes may be accepted as proof
of cultivation, but proof should show
that the claimant has actually used the
land for such purposes and to what ex-
tent IL has been so used"
The ruling is understood to apply to
cases where homesteaders are holding
down claims suitable for grazing pur.
poses, but who are keeping no stock
on them, and are not cultiyating
them.

ing Of Mr.. Wilson the Edgemont Tx.

way capable and the present incumbent
has had the position for several years

thorough knowledge of law and will be
a fair and impartial judge. He has gone
into the fight with the determination to
win out and it rests with the republi-
can voters to put Mr.. Wilson into the
place he is so well qualified to fill and at
the same time serve the people of the
circuit.

The Black Hills Miner is the name ot
another new venture in the newspaper
field, the initial copy of which reached
our table this week. As the name OF
the paper would infer, it is devoted to
the mining business and it is fairto state
that it is full of interesting matter bear
ing upon that grand industry in the
Black Hills. The Black Hills Miner is
published in Lead, is issued every Fri
day and is ably managed and edited by
the two brothers, j. r. Egbert and A. o.
Egbert, who seem well qualified to re-
present the mining fraternity Of this
rich domain.

Died.

In Custer on the evening of the 25th
day of August, 1904, Emanuel Mcdonald
aged 9S years.
Mr.. Mcdonald was born in the Shen-
nadoah Valley in the state of Virginia in
1906, and had led long and eyentful
life' The old gentleman often reverted
to incidents of his early manhood but
dated all of his misfortunes back TO the
war of the rebellion. 1t was during
these years that he lost his wife and
child, his plantation valued at $4,000,
and all his slaves of which he possessed
goodly number He was q pioneer to
the Black Hills and used to freight from
Sidney, and afterwards from Pierre dur
ing the early settlement of the Hills. 1t
is not often that we encounter men who
have lived to attain the age of ninty-
eight and he must have possessed a re-
markably vigorous constitution to have
withstood the toll and hardship Of SO
many years His malady was stomach
trouble which was the immediate cause
of his death, still it might properly be
said that he died of old age. We have
heard that Mr.. Mcdonald was a Con.
gregahonalist and the funeral took place
in the Congregational church, the Rev.
Mrs. Katherine Powell officiating. On
Friday last his remains were borne to
the Custer cemetery followed by few
friends, (the very old nave but few
faiends,) and there safe from the tur-
moil and strife of all earthly presents he
rests in peace.

Some states have located their capi
tails off in one corner or side of the state
in pioneer days, when the only resi-
dents lived around the locality where
they located it. But even in those cases
they rarely change the location of the
capital and after the state may have be-
come we'll populated. People do not
like the notion of changing their seat of
government after it is once established.
1t looks ickle and foolish in them, be-
sides affecting the material value OF
state property. BY removing the capi-
tai from Pierre the value of state lands
would be decreased and state property
at Pierre would be lost; geopraphies
and maps would have to be called in
and changed and the people Of the state
would be looked upon as unstable and
unsettled-much more so than as though
they were to move capital from one
corner or side of the state to the center
There might be reason and good sense
in such move but to take it away from
the center to corner of the state would
be q practical admission that the people
regarded the western part oftte state al
worthless and consider it vote to aban
don its settlement and development en-
tirely. Voters interested in the goot
name and advancement of the state ar,
not going to favor any such wild notion
simply to crafty the real estate spec
ulators at Mitchell.-Hot Springs Star.

thing else. Words are parsed so be-
cause they are always nouns, always
verbs or always propositions. No reas-
oning from the nature of things what
result must be. And on the other hand
principles are presented in an abstract
way, rules are required to be learned,
and theories Of composition are discuss
ed. As result the student may have
certain knowledge but not thought
power. When he tries to generalize
he is lost. His power to think has been
stifed He has not as it were digested
the principles by means Of examples.
Hence the necessity of right proper
ton Of principle and example. The
good teacher is not the one that convey
the most knowledge but the one
that draws out the pupil and makes
them think. Lei the principle be pre-
sented in every conceivable way, put tc
every possible test, quiz pupils. ask fol
authority for performing operations
This should be carried out in every
study. Thus by careful combination
of principle, example and fact the pupil's
mind will not be filed and burdenec
with that which is useless. but will bs
an active, reasoning, thinking mind.
