Said to be Worth Sl,000,0O0.
Sioux Falls, 8. D.. March 6.-Two

Black Hills, which is alleged to be
worth 81 ,000, 900 and which forms the
greater part of the estate Of, the late,

inent mining man of western South

in the probate court Of Lawrence coun-
ty, South Dakota, in which the mining
property belonging to the estate of

situated at point adjoining the prop

HEADQUARTERS TRANSFERRED.
Headquarters of the Sundance National Forest
Transferred to Deadwood.

"So04oos ssi . VI suS S0uOdnSe NduOHdl rOTeSt
Transferred to Deadwood.
The administration of the Sundance
national forest in Wyoming was on
March l, placed under the jurisdiction
of the supervisor of the Black Hills
forest at Deadwood, South Dakota.
According to forestry officials at
Denver, this transfer was affected for
economic reasons. The Sundsnce
forest contains $4,000 acres while the
average forest unit throughout the
west lie about one million acres. The
expense of maintaining the Sundance
forest as q separate unit was greatly
out Of proportion, therefore, to that in.
Cured by the average national forest.
By consolidating the administration Of
the two forests under one head. the
government not only saves the cost of
maintaining headquarters for one
supervisor but places the area under
control Of the supervisor at Desdwood
at approximately 10000 acres, which
is still within the limits OF the average
unit.
Although the closing of the super.
visors headquarters ct Sundanoe will
result in no Inconvenience to the users
OF that forest. the forest service expects
ro eeonomizs to the extent of from
$1,000 to 900 Q yssr by the trsnsso.

HoMESTEADS OF GAO ACRES.

Department of The Interior Discussing $40
Acre Homestead Bill Candy Favors 1t.
The Receiver at the land office at
Rapid City, Harry L. Candy, has been
sending out letters recently to home.
stesders aud others in this section
which refers to an enlarged homestead
bill now under discussion by the De.
partment Of the Interior. The bill pro.
vides for $40 acre homestead and
would be great benefit to the people
Of Western South Dakota.
Mr.. Gandy's letter is as follows:
~ would advise you that the secre.
tary of the interior has recommended
to the public lands committees of the
senate and the house, bill for the
establishment of what shall be known
as ''stock raising homestead" which
bill, IL passed. will be applicable to
South Dakota.
"rhe proposed law provides that
lands, the sole value of which is for
grazing purposes. shall be so desig.
mated by the secretary of the interior.
and stock raising homestead may be
filed thereon to the extent Of $40 acres.
"The bill does not require cultivation
and in lieu thereof requires such i'm
provments as will tend to enhance the
value of the tract for stock raising pur.
poses, to the amount of $1.25 per acre.
Provision ts made for those who here
tofore acquire lands, that they may
take such an amount as when added to
lands heretofore taken, will not exceed
GAO acres.
"The department requested Of me
my opinion of this measure, and with
recommendations for certain minor
changes and amendments, strongly
recommend its passage. My impres.
sion is that 1t will be great thing for
western South Dakota, for it will not
only put all of our rough land on the
tax book, but it will give man sum-
oient amount of this land to make a
home for himself and his family.
II expect to take up this matter
further with the department and with
the public lands committees of the
house and senate and il you have any
suggestions to offer, will be pleased
to hear from you at your earliest CON.
venience."

defeated, for their present confidence
appears sincere.
1t is noticeable that the confidence Of
the supporters of Congressman Burke
in his candidacy for nomination to the
United States senate as the regular
republican candidate is growing each
day and the size of his majority now
Some of Congressman Burke's more
enthu iiastic supporters are talking of
20,Oo0O majority, while the more con.
serva i've political forecastsrs express
the opinion that it will be from. 10000
to 1900.
The Burke men in predicting victory
for their candidate, take the view that
Congressman Burke will receive the
solid antistate administration vote and
the votes Of thousand of out and out
progressive republicans who are alleged
to have become dissatisfied with Senator
Crawford.
The Fight For Governor,
With three active repu blican candi-
dates in the field for nomination to the
Office of governor, in the persons of
Governor Byrne, r. o. Richards, of
Huron, and State Auditor Henry B.
Anderson, there is keen interest among
voters Of the state generally in the out
come Of this three cornered struggle.
All candidates are carrying on an active
campaign. and the followers of each
profess to be hopeful of the success of
their favorite.
r. 90 Richards Is the unknown
quantity in the present fight, and just
what strength he will develop is q
source Of worry to his opponents. The
fact that Mr.. Richards two years ago.
when he was candidate for the United
States senate, received about $4,000
votes Notwithstanding that he did not
ask man for his vote but devoted his
entire time to furthering the interests
of his primary election Law, which then
was before the voters of the state for
adoption OF rejection, is what makes
him n uncertain quantity in this
campaign.
Tn,- tine he is making an active fight
for the governorship and is concentrat-
ing his Efforts on his campaign, and his
opponents fear that becsuse Of this he
may receive greatly increased vote
over that given him two years ago.
Among the leaders of the Richards
forces it confidently is expected he will
receive from 25,OOO to 10000 votes, and
should this prove to be the case it is
believed it would give him the nomina-
tiop 1t is figured that several Thousand
anti Byrne republicans with whom
Richards is not arst choice will vote ior
