OPPONENTS SAY CUMMINS
FEARS TO MEET PERKINS
Iowa Governor Gives Three Reasons for
Refusing to Agree to Series of De-
bates ~
SEecial to The Journal.

Special to The Journal 81
Sioux City, Iowa, March 31.-The re-
fusal of Governor Cummins to meet
George D. Perkins in a series of joint
debates on the issues of the guberna-
torial campaign is the interesting topic
just now in Iowa political circles. Mr..
Cummins gave three reasons for. the at
titude he took regarding the Perkins
challenge: First, that his plan of cam
paign had already been made and that
he was unwilling to divert from the
course he had already outlined; second,
that Mr.. Perkins has a newspaper in
which he carries on his side of the de-
bate every day; third, that Mr.. Per-
kins and himself are not the only cam
didates for governor, and that it would
be presumptuous to assume that the
nominee must be either Mr.. Perkins or
himself
The reply has been seized on by the
governor opponents as an indication
that he hesitates to meet the Sioux City
editor on the platform.

NEW BUILDING Goes =.
UP ON SITE OF OLD
Passing of Deadwood's Court
house Recalls Many Scenes
of Pioneer Days.

Special to The Journal.
q Deadwood, S. D., March 3l.-Plans
for the new courthouse, prepared by
Bell & Detweiler of Minneapolis, have
been accepted and the building will be
started just as soon as the old one is
removed. This work is now being
DONE The new building will be con-
structed of brick and stone and will be
supplied with all conveniences and ac-
eommodations suitable to modern
courthouse. It will cost not less than
$4,000. The old building has seen
practically the entire development of
the Black Hills country from chaotic,
lawless, unorganized state to it's present
condition Of law-abiding prosperity.
How near this part Of the country
came to be a state of it's own but few
people know. 1t was in the summer of
1876 that a petition was presented to
congress asking for the formation Of
separate and distinct territory, to be
known as the Lincoln territory and to
comprise all Of the land east and west
between the Missouri river and the east
ern boundaries of Wyoming and Mon
fana, and north and south between the
northern boundary of Nebraska and the
point where the Missouri river cuts the
eastern line of Montana. It was thought
that the interests of this part of. the
country would be so different from
those of the eastern part of the terri
tory thatBbpth sections would do better
with separate organizations. The bill
came before the United States senate,
but in spite of efforts made at home
and at Washington it was defeated.
st It is q noticeable fact that, notwith-
standing the wild character of life in
Deadwood in early days, the robberies,
the murders and the duels, there was
never lynching in Deadwood; in fact
there were but three legal executions in
Lawrence county during it's entire his.
tory. Many Of the most lawless men
Of those days succeeded admirably in
eyading the courts and the law. In the
first year of the settlement of the Black
Hills, Indians were the chief danger tt
the traveller and sometimes even to the
man who was remaining peacefully al
home. But as soon as the red man haC
ceased to be a menace, bands Of high
wavmen arose, and stage robbers, O.
road agents as they were called, became
The great dread of drivers, passenger
and men who were shipping bullion.
