MINERS WILL COME BACK.
Black Hills Expects to Profit by Butte
Shutdown.

The announcement by the Anal
gamated Copper Mining company
that work shortly would cease in the
Butte mines is likely to result in good
for the Black Hills. Mining men at
Deadwood are inclined to view it
from a favorable standpoint so far as
the Hills are concerned. Since the
reopening Of the mines in that district
after the settlement of the eight-hour
day trouble, many Of the companies
have been short-handed, as during the
lay-of some of the best miners went
to other sections and have not re-
turned. Cessation of work at Butte
doubtless will send some miners to
the Hills, and If the Arizona copper
properties also are affected. many of
the old-time Black Hills miners who
now are working there, will return to
the Hills.

PLAN NEW HIGH SCHOOL.
Building to Cost 100000 is Project
That Will Be Urued.

During the winter it is expected
that steps will he taken by the citi-
zens Of Mitchell to secure a new high
school building. At the present time
the accommodations are meager, not
withstanding there are four buildings
now in use and another just being
completed, but it is the high school
department that is suffering most. An
effort will be made to concentrate pub
lie opinion on a 100000 high school
building, to hold a special election
during the winter, sell the bonds and
then commence work on the structure
in the spring. With a school popula-
ton of more than 1900 the buildings
now here are inadequate to the de-
mands from the number of new resi-
dents who are constantly moving
here.

The completing Of this line into
Watertown will give that city it's long

at Speartish. Through the visit of w.
HI. Lyman, P. A. Waller and w. H.
Trask Of Kcwanee, III, they have ac-
quired nearly one-half interest in the
Mclaughlin Tie and Timber company,
the second largest employing and OPP

the Hills. w. j. Mclaughlin, the
president and promoter OF the COM
pany, will retain a controlling interest
and continue to superintend the work.
The new co-owners are wealthy BUSH
ness men Of Illinois, and it is their
intention to supply the capital to in
creasc the large interests OF the lum-
Der company. The Mclaughlin COM
pany has established Mt Nahant on the
Burlington south of Deadwood a camp
where it's lumber trade is handled and
has built up a town of several hundred
inhabitants. The company controls a
vast timber tract in the western part
of the county, and is building a rail-
road through into Wyoming. For some
time past the entire product of the
company has been taken by the Bur-
lington railroad for it's own use, but.
with tie increased facilities, it is
planned to enter the competitive field
in the Hills. 1t has been said for
some time that one Of the objects Of
the company was to reach we'll owe
into the timber lands of Wyoming by
an extension of it's railroad, and this
will nov probably be accomplished.

This action of the fair board is doub.

play was so extensive. and the support
of the city so generous that the rule
was set aside for once and the resolu-
tons unanimously adopted.
