No Hunting Sunday,

One of the recommendation OF Gov
ernor Herreid in his message to the leg
islature will lie in reference to laws for
the better protection of game. lie will
strongly advise that the Minnesota law,
with some slight revision, be adopted
in this state South Dakota has no game
warden The governor is the protection
Of game. and on him devolves the en-
forcement Of what few laws the state
has for the protection of game.
The chief recommendation of Cover
nor Herreid, so report says, will be for
the creation of the Office of game war
den and placing on the statute books
strict laws in regard to the protection Of
game. He will recommend amendments
to the law prohibiting Sunday shooting
and spring shooting; that hunters Ii
censes should be applicable to any part
of the state; license fee for resident
and non resident hunters; license
money to make the game warden's sal
airy and expenses, and also for minor
corrections in the present state law.

what the prospeotor is Doing.


There has been much said of late oi
the passing of the prospector. The
press, and especially that section of it
devoted to promotion interests, has wall
ed at the lack of interest. We do not
see it in that light.
If ever there was time that the pros.
pector was at his best, and accomplished
much, this is the golden age of his sue
cess, Certainly the record has not been
duplicated before. Within the last few
years he widened the area of Bisbee,
Arizona, and carried its producing Sec
ton to the edge of the desert he gave
the mines of Milford and Cactus, Utah
to the world he opened the Thunder
Mountain country of Idaho, and added
Loon creek in the same state to the list
Of shipping and dividend paying mines
he extended the area Of the gold prodac-
ing section Of the Blue mountains OF
Oregon (the Sumpter fields) from a Sec
tion in which few mines were operating
he entered the Black Hills of South Da
kota, and in his wake tower shaft houses
where a few years ago there was no &C.
tivity whatever; he gave the copper.
producing section of Wyoming the
Grand Encampment district) to the
world he developed the copper depos
its of the Burro mountains of New Mex
leo, and pointed the spots where shafts
were sunk and producing mines devel.
oped in the Mogolon mountains of the
same territory his discoveries revived
and created new interest in Globe, Ari-
zona, and in Yavapai county ofthe same
territory he has left monuments in the
shape OF mines on all sides. In Nevada
he has added the wonderful gold-pro.
ducing sections of Tonopah and Gold
ield-marvels of richness-which have
amazed the world, while the tele,
graph wires are constantly whisper
ing of conquests he is still making
in that section. In Colorado he gave
Camp Bowerman and Sherrod to the
world: only recently he has demon.
strated that forgotten sections of the
Cripple creek district are richer than
that portion which has been worked for
ten years past, and in Clear Creek, Gil.
pin and Boulder counties he has
scratched the earth, and 10, new mines
are located. He revived the San Juan
and Custer county, made a mining
county of old Chaffee and is doing the
same thing in Grand county. In
Mexico he blazed a trail with red
stream of copper along the banks OF
the Yaqui river and located one oil
the largest copper mines in the world,
while at Parral and FL Orc his discov-
cries have astonished the world.
These are but a few of the achiev.
ments of the prospector in the past two
or three years, and we venture the as.
ser;ion that at no time in the history OF
mining has he accomplished as much
during like period of time. If we
measure by results, and the extent OF
country over which the benefits of his
discoveries have been distributed, the
prospector has accomplished more for
the world in the past two or three years
than at any other time, as witness, for
example, the increase in the production
of gold which has been unparalleled in
the history of the world
The prospector passing? How can
one even think of it, with the evidence
staring him in the face Ores and
Metals.

Marble Co. Levies Assessment.

The Pioneer-Times is informed that
an assessment has been levied against
the stockholders of the Black Hills Por.
celain, Clay & Marble Co. at the rate of
$500 for each 1000 shares of stock held.
1t is asserted that the assessment is be-
ing met promptly and that as result
several thousand dollars have been add
ed TO the treasury. With the proceeds
of this assessment the company expects
to patent the ground situated chiefly in
Custer county. The company holds un-
der location and annual assessment a
large acreage in the southern Hills,
chiefly valuable for its timber andstone.
1t claims to have deposits Of superior
marble and lithograph stone. 1t also
has some kaolin, or porcelain clay, for
which it is said there is great demand.
This company was organized some five
years ago by B. r. Noble of Yale, Michi.
gan, and associates in various parts OF
the east. Mr.. Noble has since died and
the company since his death has been
having some difficulty in maintaining
its existence and keeping out of debt

Mime Asst ssment.

Annual assessment work on one claim
in group for the benefit of the entire
group is question that arises yearly,
the decisions Of the courts differing
somewhat in degree. This assessment
says the San Francisco Mining Press
may be done on one claim to hold a
group of claims, but it must be clearly
shown that the work so done at one
point is for the benefit of all the claims
OF the group. 1T is not sufficient that
the claims are contiguous, though this
latter condition is prerequisite" The
Idaho supreme court has recently de-
cided case where portion Of a group
Of claims was relocated for failure to
perform the assessment work as required
by law. The claims were placers, were
contiguous and sufficient work was done
on one of the claims to bold all, but the
owners could not show that the work so
performed was actual benefit to the re-
mainder of the claims of the group,
while the other side to the controversy
had no difficulty in showing that the
work done, although exceeding $4,000 in
amount during one year, was OF benefit
only to the claim where the work was
done, and of no advantage whatever to
the remainder OF the claims ofthe group.
1t is likely, says the Press, that any
court would find against locator own
ing several adjoining claims on one
stream who did all of his assessment
work on the lowest placer ground-the
lowest ground 6rst-as this is essential
to the proper drainage of the claims
higher up on the stream. The same APP
plies to quartz locations If it can be
shown that the work done on single
claim is an advantage to the adjoining
claims, that is all that is necessary for
| the amount Of work is sufficient to rep
resent 800 worth for each claim.

Not Favorable to Cattle interests.

Congressman e. w. Martin, who is
spending the holidays with his family
in Deadwood, is reported as having
stated that the bill which has been in
troduced opening up 90 acres of ground
for settlement " est of the Missouri river
is not fayorable to the cattle interests,
but instead is made especially for the
farmer and rancher who might desire to
take mp land in the western part of the
state. The bill requires that the locator
must reside on the claim five years and
tbs cost per acre when the ground is
proved up on will be SI.25. Should the
bill become law the $40 acre tract
would not be much more than the
peo lie got who settled up the eastern
part of the state twenty-five years ago.
At that time they got a presumption, a
homestead and a tree claim, amounting
in all to 4S0 acres. Mr.. Martin states
that the opening up of this part of the
western country will mean railroad
across the reservation. lie has spent
great deal Of time going over the country
between the Missouri river and the
Hills and is certain that as soon as the
bill opens up the district thousands of
farmers will flock in and take up the va
cant land.
There is a strong opposition to the bill
on the part ofsome Of the farmers living
in the foothills along the valleys, One
man from Sturgis writes the bill should
not pass unless certain provisions are
in it that will protect the land. He sug-
gests that the land now vacant should be
surveyed carefully and all the land along
the creeks should be plated, and per
son taking a homestead should not be
allowed more than eighty acres of Irr-
gated land, 100 acres of land in the vail
eys and the balance on the plateaus or
| higher portions, where grazing will have
to be resorted to. Other wise person
could locate the $40 acres of ground
along the creeks, leaving vacant the
plateaus.

Must Vote on License /!

The supreme court Of South Dakota
has affirmed Judge Whiting in what is
known as the Hetland saloon case, hold
ing that an affirmative vote is required
every year to grant saloon license. This
means that the only legal saloons in the
state are in towns which voted license
last spring.
This decision is based upon Section
1856 of the Revised Political Code of
1908, which provides that at the annual
municipal elections held in each town
ship, town and city for general munich
pal purposes, the question of granting
permits to sell intoxicating liquors at
retail within the corporate limits of such
township, town or city, shall be submit
ted to the legal voters upon g petition
signed by % legal freehoIder voters, to
be filed with the clerk or auditor thirty
days before election, stating that a vote
is desired upon the question. The ques.
tion is to be submitted upon a separate
ballot upon which there is to be printed
the words Shall intoxicating liquors be
sold at retail ?" before which there shall
be printed "Yes" and NO" If majority
Of the voters vote yes" the corporate
authorities will therefore be authorized
to grant permits for such sale during the
ensuing year. II a majority vote mo-"
permits shall not be granted
1t is further provided in section 1884
that no retail or wholesale liquor license
shall be issued except by compliance
with section 2856. The law is inter
preted to mean that unless election is
held and such authority voted the cor
porate authorities Of each city, town
and township are not authorized to
grant licenses for the liquor business
1t has been contended by some that
where no election is held there is moth
ing TO interfere with the granting of Ii
censes but according to section 1884, this
construction is an error.
In substance the law says that before
city council may issue or authorize the
issuance of licenses it must have the au.
thor;y of a majority of the voters.

ADVICE to Girls.

A faith er talking to his careless daugh-
ter said II want to speak to you of
your mother. 1t may be that you haye
noticed careworn look upon her face
lately. OF course it has not been
brought there by any action of yours
still it is your duty to chase it away. /
want you to get up tomorrow morning
and get the breakfast and when your
mother comes and begins to express her
surprise go right up to her and kiss her.
You cant imagine how it will brighten
her dear face. Besides you owe a kiss
or two. Away back when you we're a
little girl she kissed you when no one
else vas tempted by your fever tainted
breath and swollen face. You were not
so attractive then as you are now. And
through those years of childish sun
shine and shadow she was always ready
to cure by the magic of a mothers kiss
the little dirty, chubby hands whenever
they were injured in those first skir-
mishes with the rough world. And then
the midnight kisses with which she
routed so many bad dreams as she lean
ed over your restless pillow have been
on interest these long years. OF course
she is not 50 pretty and kissable as you
are, but if you had done your share OF
the work during the last ten years the
contrast would not be so marked. Her
face has more wrinkles than yours, far
more, and yet If you were sick that .ace
would appear more beautiful than an
angels as it hovered over you watching
every opportunity to minister 10 your
comfort and every one Of these wrinkles
would seem TO be bright yavelets of
sunshine chasing each other over the
dear face.
"She will leave you ono of these days.
These burdens il not lifted from her
shoulders will break her down. Those
rough, hard hands that have done SO
many necessary things for you will be
crossed upon her lifeless breast. Those
neglected lips that gave you your first
baby kiss will be forever closed and
those sad. tired eyes will have open
ed in eternity and then you will appre-
ciSte your mother; but it will be too
late"
