PERSONS IN THE PUBLIC EVE.

Will E. Humphrey, so goes the
story, will not seek a re-nomina-
ton to Congress, but the story is
strenuously denied by the Seattle
Daily Times, which must mean
that, the Times is to be Hunph-
rey's chef supporter and political
organ next year, in his efforts to
succeed himself. If the prophecy
proves true then the finish Of Will
E. Humphrey is plain to be seen,
for, be it remembered, the Times
has never won a political victory,
even when there was not we'll de-
fined opposition to the candidate
it was working for. If Mr..
Humphrey has any hope in the
world of being reelected next
year we suggest to him to have the
Seattle Daily Times denounce him
as a horse thief, black leg, a
murderer or any old thing cussed
and mean and then the people will
believe he has been doing the
square thing while in Congress.
The voters of this state are firmly
fixed in the belief that, if you see
it in the Times, its a dam lie.

must, because for the past week he
has been making his way to the
Bailey lunch counter, where the
members of the Disgruntled

and make plans for the political
control of the state. No one de-
MES but that Mr.. Walker is one
of the most upright men in the
whole Northwest, but he has the
appearance of being cold and in
different toward his fellow men

hard time getting the nomination

met by an equally hard fight put

to be very popular among the

Timothy d. Sullivan of much
political and theatrical fame in
Greater New York and we'll
known in theatrical circles in
Seattle, where he is interested
with John w. Considine in a num-
Der of play houses, arrived in Sc
attic one day this week on a tour
of inspection, and had not been
in the city but a few hours be-
fore he fell in with laxative re-
porter. Now Tim can talk little
his ownself, and when he began
to talk he proceeded to defeat
Taft and elect any old candidate
the Democratic convention might
name for president. Jimmy has
talked along similar lines before
and got left just as he and his
party will next year. Mr.. Sulli-
van is a New York Democrat and
if Democrat is to win so easily
as he predicts, he will have to do
so by carrying New York, and
the vote in that state a few days
ago does not indicate a Demo
cratic victory next year. To our
mind Big Tim is talking through
his hat and really means his the
atrical ventures are going to win
next year instead of his political
affiliations.

George W. Hitler, of Hot Springs
committed suicide Saturday afternoon in
Q room above his saloon. His body wat
found about supper time by George
Hanson, his partner, and q close friend
for many years. He severed the jugular
vein at the right side Of the throat with
Q pocket knife and the room presented q
gruesome sight from the blood he had
lost.
Although engaged in the liquor busi-
ness, Hitler held the respect of every
class. He had always helped the needy
and unfortunate and his tender-heartsd
ness was in fact to some extent the cause
for his taking his life. Some months
ago he invested money in the quarry
business Of the Fall River company, and
though the company has been active and
msritorious, IL has never had sufficient
capital for carrying, on its business and
their creditors have suffered.
Recently its help, numbering twenty
Eve or thirty men, have had to wait for
their wages. The business was not man.
aged by Hitler, but because he held
financial interest he has been impor-
tuned for money. Besides the annoy
ance he was thus subjected to, it appar-
emily hurt him to think of the incon-
venience and suffering of these men and
their families, and in letter he wrote

life he said the company was his down.

PIONEER DAVID G. TALENT
Came Into Hills With Gordon Witcher
Expedition 1874, Never Heard
ofAfter Leaving Rapid
City in 1855.

| Old timers and pioneers in the Blacl
Hills will recall that among the frs
white men to take mp their permanen
abode in the Hills was David G. Tallen
with his wife and son, Robert E. Tai
lent, q boy then about nine years Of age
and the first white child to be brought
to the Hills. That was in 1874 aftel
General Custer and the United States
troops had visited this section Of ths
country and the reports of the discover
les of gold had infiamed the country.
The Talents were members of the
Gordon and Witcher party ofSioux City,
the first to enter the southern Hills, later
to be removed by United States troops
and finally to return and and perman.
ent home among them.
The Talents lived in different sections
of the Hills including Desdwood and
Rockford until 1887, when they were liv.
ing here, Mr. Talent following the pro-
fession of law and also writing insurance
and performing the duties of notary,
when not prospecting.
In December, 1887, while Mrs. Talent
was on a visit to Elgin, ILL.,, her home
city, Mr.. Talent left Rapid City aud
from that time until September 7th fthis
year nothing was heard of him or of his
movements. At that time his son
learned through friend that
q man giving the name Of David g. Tai
lent had died at Arlington, Wyoming, a
copper camp, on July 4th. Investiga-
ton proved the report correct and as
soon as spring comes and the SHOWS melt
in the Medicine Bow mountains, the re-
mains of the pioneer will be brought to
this city for permanent interment.
Robert E. Talent visited Arlington
upon hearing of the death of his father
and learned that he not only owned two
valuable copper prospects, the Nabob
and Nabob No. l, but that he had also
proved upon 100 acres of land near Salt
Lake City and at one time was well
known in that city and Ogden.

traced through Old Mexico, California,
Idaho and Wyoming. At the time of
his death Mr.. Talent was nearly SO years
of age. Several years ago report came
that he had died at Quincy. Cal, but in
vestigation proved the report untrue.
About that time Mr.. NJ. H. Day, former
ly OF this city, saw Mr.. Talent in Cali
fornia and the actual news of his death
was communicated to his son by Walter
Garvey.
After the return of Mrs. Talent from
her visit to Elgiu, Ill.,, and upon learning
that her husband had probably left for
all time, she set about to support herself
and for several years was county super.
intendent of schools ofPsnnington coun-
ty. Later on she wrote a historical
sketch of the Gordon and Witcher ex-
pedition and early life in the Black
Hills. This was good book, and was
published about two years before her
death. She died at Sturgis about ten
years go.-Rapid City journal.

The outlook is very cheerful for fair

themselves and the fright from 9

and we know just where we are at. The
results were not quite so discouraging as
midsummer reports would seem to in
dictate, and the purse strings have beer
