Tho man who was an early settler
in any county or township in the
state, did all in his power to pre-
vent the settlement Of that county
and township and prevented the
Land passing from the government
into the hands Of settlers, with an
idea that by such action he could
reduce his taxes, should cast his
vote eyes on the capitol removal
proposition, for that is the position
which is taken by Mitchell today in
regard to the whole state.
The man who believes that it will
help to reduce his taxes by adver-
Using to the world that all that por-
ton of South Dakota, in which the
state endowment lands, and most Of
the common school lands, are stu
ated, is worthless and will never be
worth anything, should vote Eyes, )"
for that is the method of campaign
being carried on by Mitchell.

helped to reduced the taxes in his
township and country by securing

under taxation, should vote "No, y

One hundred years ago today, the
exploring expedition commanded by
Captain Lewis and Clark anchored
toward evening one hundred yards
off the mouth of a river entering
from the south side of the Missouri.
This river. according to their jour
nal, was about seventy yards wide.
and had considerable current. AS
the tribe of Indians living there was
called the Teton, they named the
river Teton also.
We have kown it as the Bad river
for many years, but at the request
of Secretary Robinson, of the State
His torical Society, the U. S. COM
mission has now given it its old
name of Teton again
On Tuesday, Sept. Is, flagstaff
and awning were erected on shore,
and the exploring party assembled
at twelve o'clock, all parading under
arms. and there met about sixty
chiefs and warriors from the Indian
camp two miles up the river.
The leaders, both white and red,
smoked and delivered speeches, but
the Sioux interpreter, Mr.. Dnrion,
having been left with the Yankton
Sioux, and the French interpreter
not speaking huently, the harangues
were curtailed. They, however, went
through the ceremonies Of acknowl-
edying the chief and gave him a
medal, United States flag, uni
form coat and hat with feathers. To
the other chiefs gifts Of less value
were made and certificates given to
ted warriors. The great chiefs
name was Black BuffAloe.
After the cermony. the chiefs were
invited on board the boat and shown
the air gun and other cur Gus things
On Wednesday, Sept, 26, the ex-
plorers were snvited to a dance in
their honor. Captain Lewis and
Clark were met, on landing, by a
party of ten welldressed young
braves who took them up in highly
decorated robe and carried them to
the council lodge, giving them
place beside the chief.
Here the captains were harangued
feasted, and given the peace pipe to
smoke, with all due ceremonies.
After the feast the dance began,
It was performed by number of
dancers, to the music OF an orches-
ira of ten men, with instruments
which we should hardly call musical
and continue until twelve o'clock at
night.
The next day another dance was
given, and it was not until Friday
that the expedition succeeded in re-
Stunning the journey up the Missouri,
that wonderful journey which has
meant so much to this western coun-
try.
Secretary Robinson and Curator
Goodfellow have been in correspon-
dence with the descendants of these
Teton Sioux for some time, hoping
to arrange for characteristic In
dian dance at Pierre, in celebration
OF this one hundredth anniversary,
but the Indians were scattered and
it could not be managed,
Now, however, Mr.. Goodfellow has
heard from them, and it is expected
that the dance will be given the lat
ter part of October.

the past eight Or ten years has been
killing off the pine forest of this re-
serve. There are many thousands
of acres of ground tina; are totally
bare of pine trees.
He states that he did not realize
the Importance of the mining indus
try Of the Black Hills; that from all
appearances there will be mining
here for thousand years hence. In
order to continue mining it will be
necessary to plant more trees to
take the places OF OF the large areas
which have been burned or de-
stroyed by the bug. He will ex-
pertinent with different kinds of tree
seeds to find one that will. be a quick
grower, to take the place of the de-
stroyed areas in the Hills. He ex-
poets to find a pine tree that will be
a quick grower. If successful he
will send several car loads of seed to
the Black Hills early in the spring.
Three years ago Capt. Bullock, for
est supervisor of this district, ex-
perimented with pine seeds by
throwing them over the snow early
in the spring. They took root and
have made a thrifty growth ever
since. Capt. Bullock states that
the soil in the Black Hills is pecu-
liarly adapted to making regrowths
of pine trees.
Capt. Bullock proposed to Secre-
tarv Wilson the installing of wire
less telegraph station in Dead wood
and in each OF the subdivisions of
his reserve. This service will be of
great value to the reserve, especially
in case of fire, when by signaling,
assistance can be brought from any
part of the district. Capt. Bullock
states that many of the districts
where the heaviest timber formerly
grew are now barren, having been
burned over by fire. These districts
can be replanted with trees only by
hand, since it would take to long a
time for the wind and birds to carry
the seeds to them.

CARRIED TO ROCKS
IcsAoe Places Schooner Campbell on Ledge
at Block Island.

The three -masted schooner William j.
Campbell. Captain Robertson, was driven
on the rocks at Dutch island by ice, last
evening
The Campbell was at anchor when the
ice-fioe struck her, the big 2O-inch- thick
cakes piling up against her side until
she was carried bodily TO the rocks
She struck on a ledge about 300 yards
north OF the lighthouse and was I'm so
dangerous a position that the crew came
ashore.
A strong wind was blowing and the de-
struction OF the ship seemed apparent.
Tugs were sent over from Newport to-
day with the intention OF hauling the
Campbell into deep water.
The schooner was rescued from her
perilous position early today through the
work OF the Newport tug Solicitor. and
now lies at anchor IN the channel be-
tween Dutch Island and jamestown.
What tho extent Of damage resultant
upon her mishap will amount 90 IL not

sci will probably remain in the channel,
however. until arrangements are made 10

4 LEGAL QUESTION
Barber From Out Of Town Raised II but

Because he came TO the state house
New Years day and found the office OF
the state barber examiners closed one
barber from out OF town thought he could
escape paying the s. tax imposed by law
for renewals after Jan I. In letter he
informed the examiners that II they In
sisted upon his paying the s. he would
advertise In the papers for all the men
who went 10 the state house TO pay and
found the building closed. and between
them all they would make things inter-
esting for all the examiners aforesaid.
He added naively that IL the commits
send the money at once and no one would
ever know about IT,
The examiners at once wrote 10 the
young mans employer, informing him OF
the consequences OF allowing the barber
20 work without a license. and this morn
