There is one proposition that the
railroad aPologists in politics do
not attempt to tackle. That is the
practice of RAILROADS charging more
for short hauls than long hauls.
This, more than any other agency,
has built up eastern cities at the
expense Of Kansas.

Died,

At her home in Custer, s. D., on Sat-
urday, the Goth of June, 1908, Mrs.
Hannah Trimble, aged 81 years.
Mrs. Trimble was born on the 2Sth
of October, 1880, on Battle Creek, Gus
ter county, S. d. She was the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. S. r. Maddox who
came to the Hills on July 3, 1880, and
resided for awhile on Battle Creek.
They afterwards removed to the town
of Pringle where Mr.. Maddox held the
position of postmaster for many years.
The parents together with the broth
ers and sisters of the deceased were
present at the funeral and accompanied
the remains to their last resting place
in the Custer cemetery on the 2lst of
June, 1908.
Mrs. Trimble was married to Alden
M. Trimble August %, 1900, and for
nearly eight years enjoyed happy
married life. Three children we're born
to their union, two girls and boy, who
are deprived of the ministrations of a
mother in their early childhood. Mrs.
Trimble's malady lasted but one week
when she was cut off in the prime OF
life leaving husband, parents, brothers,
sisters and a whole community OF
friends to mourn her untimely demise.
Mrs. Trimble was an exemplary woman
in every way, an industrious, kind and
aHecti onate wife, a loving mother and a
sincere friend. Rev. ]. W. Lucas off.
ciated at the funeral and administered
the last rites of the Methodist faith
with much feeling and eloquence and
her remains were followed to their last
resting place by large concourse of sor.
rowing friends and neighbors. And
thus we leave her on the sunny slopeine
hill where the birds will sing, the flow
ers bloom and the wild wind will chant
her lonely requiem.
The many friends of the beresvet
husband and parents and brothers and
sisters will join as in sympathy and con
dolence while they mourn for theil
loved and lost one, who will greet then
no more on earth. But the day is no
far distant when there will be a sweet
reunion where sorrow and sickness
come not, in land that is fairer thai

Letter from james Cochran.

The following letter from our old
friend, James Cochran, with whom most
of our readers are acquainted, Che hav-
ing been q respected citizen and mer.
chant in Custer for many years. will be
interesting. Jim has fallen in love with
the country and it is oil right for the
winter, but look out in the summer time
for the fever and ague will "catch you
il you don't watch OUT"
ROCKFORD, s. D., June l6, 'Os.
Friend Carrigan:
1 am back from the land Of cyclone
caves, the land Of fruits and flowers. 1t
is splendid farming country and the
soil Is first class. You can raise any
thing that is grown in the North or in
the South, outside of the citrus fruit.
Natural gas is found all over the state
and it has the best oil wells in America,
also plenty Of coal, lesi and zinc. 1t is
free from mosquitoes and is cool nights.
The water has q slight tinge Of alkali
but is very good aud one can live there
in luxury and cheaply. Farm lands
range from $40 to 500 per acre, accord
ing to the location. I fell in love with
the country and bought an 80 acre farm,
40 acres planted to crops, the other 40 is
in pasture and orchard, one mile mort h
of Ponca, Kay county, Okla, town of
$500 people, which is energetic and en-
terprising. I expect to 90 down there
with my family in Septemer and stay
there for the winter.
To give you an idea of the soil, where
you do not have to irrigate. take one
field and plant 1t in rows, and each row
will produce to perfection the following
partial list of produce, wheat, corn, oats,
barley, rye, fax, peanuts, tobacco,
cotton, blue grass, Bermuda grass, clov-
er, alfalfa, millet, sorghum cane. kaffir
corn, sweet corn, lettuce, radishes,
onions, beets, cabbage, turnips, beans,
peas, Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes,
musk melons, water melons, straw
berries, rsspberries, black berries, dew.
berries, mullberries, gooseberries, cur.
rants, apples, pears, peaches, apricots,
nectarines, plums, prunes, cherries,
grapes, etc. 1t is also good cattle and
hog country. l consider it far ahead of
Colorado, Kansas, or Missouri as fruit
country. In the above named states
they expect this year one third of a crop
as the fruit was killed by frost. Okla
homa has the advantage of being far
enough south to escape the frost and I
have never seen such an abundance OF
fruit on trees.
The Jim Crow law is in force which
compells the railroad companies to pro-
vide separate Accommodations for the
niggers. The state is Prohibition and
the lid is closed tight. The people are
friendly and extend the right hand of
welcome. Hope this will find you and
family well. My respects to all the
boys. Truly yours,
JAMES COCHRAN.

" ooi Moves at Belle Fourche.

Yesterday there was sold in Belle
Fourche something over 100000 pounds
Of wool. The price obtained was Is
cents This is the first large sale that
has been made this season and will
therefore be a signal for others to be-
gin. Wool buyers who have been on
the ground have apparently been slow
in starting the ball to rolling, but since
yesterdays sale there have been offers
made for other large lunches some of
which are trif1e over 18 cents. The
FIRST purchaser was ]. D. Shortley who
is representing a Michigan woolen fac
tory. A close estimate of the wool clip
this season places 1t at little more than
1000, 900 pounds. Last year the clip
marketed at Belle Fourche reached the
million and three quarters notch and it
is thought to be little larger this year.
The wool movement means good times
for the Belle Fourche people for the
next few months. Lead Call.

Improvements in our Town.

In taking walk around the town on
a bright June morning we note many
new improvements going on quietly and
some that are worthy of note. We can
only give them brief mention at this
time as our space is limited.
First, the new two story residence of
Theodore Book which is under construc-
tion. This house is, 30x22 feet facing on
Eighth and Harney street, with an L
24xl6 feet running back, with studding
Is feet in height making house two
stories high with twelve rooms. The
residence is well situated in portion of
the town which bids fair to be the most
aristocratic neig hborhood in our enter
prising village.
The house of Chas. Perrin, our former
station agent, and now cashier Of the
Custer County Bank. Here We notice
the remodeling of an already commodi-
GUS home of Eve rooms below and sleep
ing apartment upstairs. The place is
receiving new coat Of paint and is be-
ing newly decorated and papered by
that prince of decorators Mr.. Charles
Ostrom.
We pass by the elegant home of At
torney Ed. L. Grantham, the improve
ments and changes of which We des-
cribed in former issue of this paper.
We took notice too of the new ver-
anda at the Methodist parsonage which
adds much to thesdignity of the resi-
denes and is altogether In harmony
with the surroundings and in good
taste.

The Killing Of James Shepard by Frank
OoY.

This regretable circumstance occurred

of the 2lst and it has created quite an
excitement all over the country as both

known.

Custer Jail and a preliminary hearing
will be had on Tuesday next. Pending
the preliminary trial the CHRONICLE
does not feel at liberty to publish the
reports that are circulating on the street,
many Of which conflict materially and

The heat wave in Chicago on the 22d,
according to the report, was something
terrific, and ten deaths are said to have
been the result. 1t is pretty early in
the season for sun strokes, but as usual
Chicago is on hand with the first batch.
When the great red sun comes pouring
down between the walls of those big
sky scrapers the heat radistes and when
there is no breeze from the lake there
is no escape and it is something awful.
Chicago is the city where the cold waves
in winter are the coldest, and where the
hot waves of summer are the hottest of
any place in the United States.
