FRANK NIMock,s BILL.

Hon. Frank Nimocks, ex-representa-
tive and representative elect, may
present bill preventing intermar-
riage in the coming session of the
legislature. Mr.. Nimocks in the opin-
ion of many was elected by corrupt
practices, and won in a contest, after
an overwhelming defeat 2 years ago.
There is not a Negro of any standing
who cares whether or not Mr.. MINI
ocks introduces this bill, because
there are fair minded legislators
everywhere, and 1t Is question in
our mind as to whether Mr.. Nimocks
can get many of his bills out of the
committees. These issues test the
manhood of our lawmakers also the
fidelity of our white friends, and they
must be confronted sooner or later.
In the recent election in st. Paul, a
candidate for Court Commissioner
printed on his cards that he would
never marry Negro to a white wom-
an, and there was no law to make
him." He also ran In the rear. The
sentiment of few agitators will not
control the many fair minded mem
bers of the Legislature-andt there are
friends of the Negroes not because he
is black, or wants to marry a white
woman, but because he is human
being and entitled to Equality be.

SNOW MELTS GRADUALLY
IN BLACK HILLS REGION

Deadwood, S. D., April S.-The vast
deposits of snow in the Black Hills are
being gradually melted by the advanc-
ing warm weather of spring and the
streams are carrying off the water
without difficulty. thereby dispellins
the fears of earlier in the season, when
alarm was felt that a sudden thaw
would cause disastrous floods and
much damage to mimi and other
property in the Black Hills.
In the the vicinity of Piedmont, in
the southern Hills, seeding has been
begun by the farmers and the ground
is said to be in excellent condition to
receive the grain.
The farmers of Fall River, Meade,
Lawrence and others of the west of the
Missouri counties, who suffered com
plete loss of crops last year, n many
of whom We're so badly hit financially
that they We're unable to buy seed
grain, have received grain purchased
by their respective county commits
sioners and issued to them in the form
of a loan. All of this agricultural
ground in the country west of the Mis-
souri,, will be planted early with small
grain and corn. The farmers express
the utmost confidence in large crops in
1872, because of the generous moisture.

DROUGHT STRICKEN FARMERS
PROSPER AS WOLF HUNTERS

Hot Springs, S. D., April 6.-Wolf
hunters have been very active IN this
county and the county auditors rec
ords show that 1,41S coyote pelts have
been presented for bounty during the
three months of 1912 just closed. The
total since August l last year, when
the current year began, is 2,245 coyote
skins and two wolf hides.
With the failure of crops, a number
OF ranchers have made wolf hunting
a vocation and 1t has paid very we'll.
Dee Billups and his brother, Al Billups.
who live below here on the Cheyenne
river. have followed their traps very
Systematically n Dee has turned In
about 500 skins for bounty, While his
brother is not far behind.
County Auditor ]. P. Herman has cut
off the lips of the skins in a way that
prevented the same skin being counted
more thar once, vet it is a mystery to
him where so many hides come
from.
The banks have been cashing these
wolf bounty warrants at a slight dis
count, and when the appropriation is
divided pro rata on these warrants 1T
may develop that they have paid too
much for them.

RETREAT WHERE RITES
OF ABORIGINE MAY Be
PERFORMED In SECRET
Plan to Set Aside Scenic En-
vironment for Indian Revels
i'll the Black Hills.

Rapid City, S. D., April 6.-Some-
thing like two years ago, a movement
was started here by Frank Lockhart,
who has a wide acquaintance among
the Sioux Indians, to provide them a
place in the Black Hills that they could
use for rites and celebrations. 1t that
time it was out a state move, lJut it has
taken a more important phase now
since those interested are ~endeavoring
to get the government to set aside a
section in which the Indians can me-
morialize the greatness of their de-
parted chiefs and also use it for camp
ing purposes.
Several spots have been suggested.
Dark canyon, near here, a picturesque
but at present useless scenic wonder,
and the old Gordon stockade near Gus
ter, famous for it's early day Indian his
tory, being among the foremost points
mentioned. In the Dark canyon 1t is
possible for the Indians to carve and
paint the walls on the sides of the
canyon with some of their Inscriptions
and legends that were familiar to them
when they used the Black Hills for,
hunting purposes before the white,
man made his entrance here, 81
ago. g.
This move follows the recent work
of Rodman Wanamaker, a son of John
Wanamaker, the former postmaster
general. who has equipped several ex-
petitions into Montana to perpetuate
the customs of the North American In
dian. 1t is believed that Mr.. Wanna
maker car be interested in the present
movement, and he will be appealed to
in behalf of it to use his influence with
the government.
Indians from the different reserva-
tons in the state will be here next
week, and it is proposed to h get
some of the best known chiefs to be-
come active in furthering the plan for
the indians sacred spot.
