acquainted with the fact that high
grade had been found. 1t looks to
me as though it was going to make
great camp.
"A great deal of high grade comes
from Grutt mountain, which is only
200 YARD. from Main street There
is a cope;omerate quartz ledge from
s to Q feet in width that can be
traced for a mile 1t runs northeast
and southwest and in places stands
up for 10 feet. One standing short
distance away can actually see the
gold glisten in the sunlight"
All shipments of ore are made by
way of Schurz by express. Mr.. Price
says the easiest way to reach RAW
hide is to go from Goldfield to Nina
at a cost of $3.50, and then from
Nina to Rawhide by auto for $15, or
by stage for $40.
"W. B. Nichols with H. H. Dorsey
and Mr.. Work bought a group con-
tinued Mr.. Price, land they have the
ground all leased out. All the leases
are in ore and one payment has al
ready been made on the property
The specimens taken from this group
are very fine.
Accommodations at Rawhide are
very fair. Beds cost 81 night and
one can get good meals for 80 cents
each. There are plenty of ducks,
and you can get good bird dinner
for a dollar. The altitude is 4,5OO
feet and the camp is in Churchill
county. OF course Rawhide has no
postoffice as yet, neither has it an
express office, but mail service is
expected to be Installed within few
days. The produce is so cheap in
camp, because Rawhide is but five
miles from the Carson sink, where
the ranches are located. Rawhide
has 30 saloons and II restaurants
and they are kept busy Potatoes
are 8 cents a pound, eggs so cents
dozen, wood $50 a cord, water
$3.50 barrel and lumber $40 a
thousand, although lumber may be
reduced to $35 soon, by coming in
via Fallon. Reese river hay is So
a ton, but has to be hauled so miles.
Mr.. Price declares that Rawhide
has the greatest surface showing of
any place he has ever visited or
heard Of OF course the place at this
stateg is only shack town, a mile
long and a quarter of mile wide,
but it has a good, natural location.
At the LILY Calumet 1 5 men are at
work. They will be continued for
some time and may be kept going

ARE IN THE SADDLE
Senator Gamble and Congressmer
Parker and Hall Given High
Standing in Washington.

Washington, d. c.. March g.
Senator Gamble, Representatives
Parker and Hall and State Chairman
Cook, of South Dakota, we're in
conference with the president today
on patronage matters.
After the conference, at which the
whole situation was gone over, it was
stated by n Of those present, that
the president had promised that the
district attorneyship to which Elliott
was appointed was to belong to
Senator Gamble and that his recon-
mendation of some new man for the
place would be accepted. 1t therefore
becomes a matter for Gamble and the
two new congressman to decide and
constitutes a big victory for Gamble.
Senator Kittredge has been making
determined efforts to secure the plum
and has been told by the president it
goes to Gamble.
The president further urged that
the delegation get together at once
and if possible agree on a slate of
recommendations for the other
general patronage, including Indian
agencies, land Office positions. etc.
The postofices hereafter will give
no trouble, as they are conceded to
the new congressman.

WON'T AFFECT BALL CLUB
of the Sunday Law Will Not
Stop the Organization of a
Team in Mitchell.
Stop the Org

Notwithstanding the passage of a
Sunday law by the legislature, Man
ager Bunker has not given up the
idea of organizing a baseball team
for Mitchell. At Watertown and one
or two other points in the state the
passage of the Sunday law has put
a stop to the baseball business, as
the managers had depended on play
ing Sunday games as a a of pay
ing out during the season. The Wa
tertown team had arranged to play
at Lake Kampeska during the sum
mer on Sunday, but Public-Opinion
up.
Manager Bunker said that he
would continue the work of secur-
ing players for his team and play
during the week. 1t was his inten-
ition to have Sunday games in Mitch
ell, but after getting in touch with
the way the people of Mitchell felt
about Sunday baseball, he concluded
that it would not be a paying prop
@osition and that he could not accom-
plish anything by running up
against public sentiment, and he de-
cided to cut out the Sunday baseball
before the legislature passed the law.
The manager has several players
with whom he is in correspondence
at the present time and whom he
expects to land. Merritt, who pitch
ed IN this city several years ago, and
who is now attending college in
Sioux City at Morningside, is devel-
oping into an exceptionally good
tWlrler, and he will doubtless lie one
of the slab artists for the season.
Who has a good reputation at the
first sack, will probably be secured
as the guard on that corner of the
diamond. Freer is said to be a bat
ter and he is as fleet on foot as the
best of them, being able to beat out
an average bunt nine times out of
ten.
The baseball element in Mitchell
is much stronger now thar two years
ago, and it is believed that with
a team playing good conscientious
baseball that it will have a strong
support. Anyway the people will be
given the opportunity to show their
willingness to do so. No subscrip-
ton paper will be passed to put the
team on it's feet, as Manager Bunker
will handle the business proposition
ion his own hook.

EMIGRAN1s ON THE MOVE
An average of Forty Cars a Day
Passing Through Mitchell to
the North and West.

The big movement OF Iowa aud
Illinois people Into South Dakota
has got a start since the weather has
eased up in the past ten days.
Previous to that there was little
doing on the railroads IN the way of
bringing emigrants to this state. In
conversation with Chief Dispatcher
Anderson. Of the Milwaukee, he said
that the emigrant movement started
in about a week ago, and since then
there have been an average of forty
cars of emigrants' goods passing
through Mitchell each day. Some of
them are going north to that part OF
the state in the newly settled portion
while Others are going west into
Aurora, Buffalo and Brule counties.
MIR. Anderson stated that the
movement OF settlers for points
across the Missouri river has not
started as yel. 1t has been held
back for several weeks in anticipa-
tl0n Of the bridge going out and the
company was slow to accept any
business for points beyond the river.

Test Your Seed Corn Thoroughly.

Prof. John S. Cole, of Brookings
agricultural college, has given the
seed corn question considerable
study from a scientific standpoint,
and he has reached the definite con-
'clusion hat seed corn must be
grown in the anne vicinity in which
it is planted. 1t has been the the
DRY of many corn producers in this
state that when a certain variety
shows a large yield in Iowa that it
ought to do we'll in South Dakota,
and for years this plan has been fol-
lowed. Prof. Coles theory, how
ever, puts that proposition clear out
of the running. Corn brought in
from Iowa, Minnesota or Illinois will
not fill the bill for South Dakota,
and even carrying it to a farther con-
clusion, corn raised in the southern
part of this state will not be accept
able for the corn production in the
northern part of the state. 1T seems
from the new order of corr produc-
ton, the nearer the corr can be pro-
duced to where it is going to be
! planted the better it will be in the
way of yield. Prof. Coles theory,
and it is not SO much of a theory,
either, is finding Judgment in the
minds of many progressive farmers
of the state and they are looking
closer to their home production for
their seed corn this year.

vention will gather, the ministers

nesday afternoon. The Epworth

thing of the three days will be the

venes Thursday afternoon and con-

Dobson has been able to ecure some

to which an admission fee is at

there is nothing to prevent the in
%dulgence of amusements on that day.
DOW in Iowa, a Sunday law is
under consideration IN the legislature
and it is even more stringent than
the aw IN this state, as it goes so
far as to stop the payment of persons
Singing in church choirs where they
receive a compensation for their
services. South Dakota will permit
this to be done. The church people
have e%ndeavored to secure a law Of
this character in years past, but un-
til now they have been successful
and they will feel eratitied that the
Sabbath day will be respected better
than heretofore The substance of
the measure follows:

Mrs. Thaw's Evidence In

With the end of Tuesday Mrs.
.Thaw was relieved from giving fur
Their testimony in the trial of her
husband, when Attorney Jerome an
nounced that he had concluded with
his cross-eXamination. 1t is now
reported that Jerome has secured
the assistance of two chorus girls,
who were friends of Mrs. Thaw be-
fore she was married and that these
women are going to get even with
Mrs. Thaw by giving the prosecu-
ton aid in showing up the character
of Mrs. Thaw before she married
Thaw. We doubt if ever there was
Ia woman who was placed in as en-
barrassing a position as Mrs. Thaw,
sonal life, which the average woman
would have submitted to most any
torture before she would have dis
closed them, but with the life of her
husband at stake, the wife went to
Amy length to save him. The vel
of pity is drawn over the scene for
the wife and there is no question
but what public sympathy is extend
ed to her. We believe it is the gen.
eral hope that Thaw will be declared
innocent by the jury and that he and
his wife will be permitted to pass
the rest of their married life il
peace and quietude-which they
should do after the great public no
toriety they have received. While
the trial has been a terrible one ant
has brought out some fearful revel
ations, we believe that it will have
an influence for the better in thu
fast set in at least preventing tn,
going to such great lengths as hat
been the case.
