IN SHADOW OF HARVEY PEAK.
Plan Suggested for Memorializing In.
dians Who Once Owned the
Black Hills.

Coincident with Stockmen's meeting
an effort will be made to put in opera.
| tion plan, which has been dormant for
some time, that of providing place in
the Black Hills, where Indians can
memorabilia the greatness of their de-
parted chiefs. The Black Hills is sec.
tion of the country still dear to the
heart of the Indian and there are very
few of the elder Indians who do not be-
lieve that it rightfully belongs to them
| now.
1t would appear appropriate and in
keeping with movements now on foot to
preserve the traditions of the Indian
that they have some place where their
noted chiefs and men could have monu-
ments to their former greatness.
Two years ago Frank Lockhart became
interested in the matter and offered
Dark Canyon to them as suitable place.
The walls of the canyon according to
Mr.. Lockhart could be carved by the In
dams themselves and would be an en-
during monument to the former owners
of the Hills.
1t is intended to amplyfy the plan
and endeavor to have the Government
set aside section in the Hills which
will be made camping place for the
Indians and have it located near the
place where the memorials are carved or
erected.
This follows an important work un-
dertaken BY Rodman Wanamaker, the
Philadelphia merchant, son of John
Wanamaker, who has equipped several
expeditions into Montana for the pur-
pose of securing data to perpetuate the
customs Of North American Indians. BY
photographs and translated tradition
Mr.. Wanamaker proposes to preserve
the records not only as an interesting
study in ethnology, but also for their
historical value.
Mr.. Wanamaker will in the near fut-
ure have erected at the entrance of New
York harbor an heroic statue of an In
dian as an abiding memorial of the peo-
Pile who once possessed the continent
Rapid City Journal.
What more slightly place could be
found than the east base of Big Rock,
right within our city limits. Monu
ments placed there could be seen from
the passenger trains on the Burlington
Route. For camping place why moi
Willow creek as it courses down from
the needles east Of Calamity Peak? Or
the old Gordon Stockade on French
creek which would afford ample water
and contiguous TO an abundance of fuel
in the virgin forest. Custer Mountain
could also be utilized for this purpose
From an historical point of view in the
vicinity of Custer is the logical point fol
such project. AS an attraction fol
tourists it is prize worth seeking, ant
the Progressive League should take hole
of the matter at once and land the prizt
if possible.

Farther from wrong and temptation,
Farther from failure and sin;
Nearer to rest and to victory,
Nearer the crown shall win.
Farther from pride and from conflict,
Farther from shame and defeat;
Nearer the hour for my crowning,
Nearer my journey complete.
Farther from fear and from doubling,
Farther from pastures Of night.

HAS CONFIDENCE IN TAFT.
President Will Have the South Dakota
Delegation Even if Progressives
Should Unite.

Congressman Martin unexpectedly ar
rived in the city yesterday, putting in a
busy day, comforting with political
friends. He left Washington two weeks
ago and came to st. Louis where he
made speech for the President before
the Business Mems Taft club. Then he
came to his ranch near Hot Springs
where he has been since. Tonight he
goes east to Brookings and tomorrow
will deliver the principal address to the
graduating class from the State Agricul-
tural College.
In commenting on the Agricultural
College Congressman Martin said: 81
think that we have strictly speaking the
best Agricultural College in the country.
The institution affords a special course
in Agriculture and graduates young men
and women with a thorough scientific
knowledge of farming in all of its mani
fold branches"
Branching into politics Congressman
Martin said that he was not surprised at
the result of the primaries in North Da-
kota, but was pleased that LaFollette
had won. II predicted result" he said,
"before l left Washington. AS regards
the President feel that he is gaining
support right along. The spirit of the
American people is asserting itself in its
desire for square deal. Taft will win
out in South Dakota. Even if the split
in the progressive wing of the party in
the State should combine, and under
those circumstances the primary might
be close, even under such conditions l
think Taft would have the South Dakota
delegation. If the President continues
to grow in the estimation of the people
as fast as he has during the past two
weeks, there can be no question about
his nomination at Chicago. There will
be nothing to it but Taft. Personally |
am strong admirer of Roosevelt and
believe that he was the man for the cri-
sis occurring during his term, He was
the champion of clean politics and hon
est business methods. / think that his
friends have made big mistake to pull
him into this contest, but he is so big a
man that his reputation cannot be hurt,
he can rest OIL the great things he has
accom- plished."
After delivering his address at Brook
ings, Congressman Martin will spend
few days in the eastern part of the State
and then proceed to Chicago where he
will be the top line speaker at big Taft
rally on April 9th. After that he goes
to Washington.-Rapid City Journal,

Not in ten years has there been as
much interest manifested in a town
caucus, as in the one held Tuesday
night. The court house was jammed
full. The young voters we're determined
to wrest the reins of the city govern
ment from the "old crowd, to which
the old warriors strenuously objected.
The band boys were out in full uniform
and rendered patriotic airs to keep the
young "braves" enthused to the highest
pitch. The rivalry was quite spirited
the forces being about equally divided.
However, two members of the old board
were retained. A non-partisan ticket
was selected. Proceedings of the cancus
appear elsewhere in the CHRONICLE
