APPROXIMATION
Rule Will be Applied to Both Original and
Additional Homestead Entries
Under Enlarged Act

The rule Of approximation, as hereto
fore applied to homestead entries for
one hundred sixty acres under the pro.
visions of Section 1889 U. S. revised
statutes, will be applied to both original
and additional entries under the en-
larged homestead act applicable to Sonth
Dakota, according to word received Tues
day by Congressman Candy from the
Honorable Commissioner Of the general
land office.
The enlarged homestead act provides
that entries shall not exceed 500 acres,
and strictly constituting that, the officials
of the local land office have rejected all
applications for either additional or
original entries where the total acreage
was greater than that amount. Mr..
Candy took the question up with the
general land office and the announce
ment that the rule Of approximation
will hereafter apply will be good news
to many homesteaders who have filed
under the provisionsof the enlarged act.
By way of explanation, it may be said
that the rule Of approximation is a
liberal construction by the department
at Washington on the public land laws
where a specific acreage is named. Thus
in half section homestead, the appli-
cant may take more than three hundred
twenty acres, providing his excess over
that amount is less than his deficiency
would be ifone Of the legal subdivisions
were omitted from the claim. If all
legal subdivisions were for even forty
acre tracts then there would be no need
for such a rule but along correction lines
the forty acre tracts are either long or
short and along meandered streams
there are fractional subdivisions, so that
an application is sometimes for little
more or little less land than the speci-
fic acreage provided in the statute

WATER RIGHT RULING.

Deadwood, S. D., June lS.-In his
decision in the suit of Gus Kellar ct al.
against the Homestake Mining company
over the Lardner.Moore water right, in
the Carbonate district, Judge McNenny
in the circuit court sustained the right
Of the Homestake company to maintain
its dams and reservoirs, and its right to
locate and appropriate the waters Of
springs. On the other hand, he held
that the company was not justified in
the construction of a dam at the point
where they had undertaken to erect one
at this time, but gives them permission
to erect new dam at the place where
their lower dam is located, but its foun-
dation must not be sunk lower than tho
dam now occupying that site. The court
found the company entitled to twenty
one miners inches Of water, under the
old measurement, or twenty-six and a
fraction inches under the new measure
ment, the plaintiffs to be entitled to all
water in excess of this amount, and that
the Homestake was guilty of trespass
when it undertook to locate new dam
thirty feet below the old one, and for
that reason put on the defendant COM
pany portion of the costs.
This decision is most important to
water-users in the Black Hills. 1t sus-
tains the water right under old customs,
to locate and appropriate water for the
purpose of disposing of it for consid-
GRAFTON to others not interested in the
location itself, overriding the law Of
1881, which provides that water can be
located only by person who proposes
to use it on his own land. II is the first
time in the history OF the state that a
decision has been rendered sustaining
the old customs that obtained among
miners before there was any specific law
on the subject

PRODUCTION OF MICA
Considerable Decline in the Production and
Importation Of Mica in Nineteen
Fourteen.

| The value of the Mica produced in
| the United States in 1914 was $32S, TAG,
q decrease Of Sl07, ,3l4 from 1913, accord
ing to a statement of Douglas b. Sterrett,
of the United States Geological Survey.
The production came from l3 States
The output of sheet mica amounted to
556, g33 pounds, valued at $277 $50, as
| compared with l,7OO,677 pounds, valued
at 1858, ,5l7 in 1913, and the production
| of scrap in 1914 amounted TO $3.50 short
| tons, valued at S5l 4l6, as compared
with $500 short tons, valued at $S2, ,543
in 1913. The output Of sheet mica in
1914 falls considerably below the average
for the preceding four years, but the pro-
duction of scrap mica compares more
| favorably with the average production
during these years. There was also a
decline in imports Of manufactured
| and trimmed sheet mica in the United
States, the value for 1914 being $685.
1856, as compared with S943,OlS in 1913
Mica mining in the United States
started early in the nineteenth century
in New Hampshire, which state supplied
all the domestic production until about
| 1868, when mining was started in North
Carolina and subsequently in other
states.
In the early days of the mica industry
the bulk of the mica used consisted Of
large clear sheets for glazing purposes.
After 1890, with the great growth in the
manufacture of electrical apparatus and
machinery an increasing quantity Of
mica was used and during the same
period smaller patterns were applied in
the glazing trade About the same time
ground mica for wall paper decoration
came into large demand, resulting in the
consumption of much of what had
formerly been waste mica. AT the pres
ent the greater part Of the sheet mica is
used in the electrical industry and the
majority Of the scrap mica is ground for
use in the decorative trade. In the
manufacture of electrical apparatus and
machinery mica is used in sheets of Yari-
Gus sizes and shapes down to washers
and disks for places in which non-in-
fammabe insulating material is neces-
sary. Finely ground mica is applied to
wall paper to furnish luster and bright
ness. For this purpose wet ground mica
is the most satisfactory because, it is
claimed the scales are cleaner and flatter
than in the dry ground product. Only
clear mica with perfect cleavage is used
in the glazing trade for stove doors, gas
lamp chimnsys, lamp shades, etc Other
uses for ground mica are in the manu-
facture of tar roofing papers and con
crete facing materials to give the appear
auce of a natural rock finish.
Mica has physical properties which
render it of value or indispensable in
several industries, such as the manu-
facture of electrical machinery and ap-
paratus, the glazing trade, and the
| decorative trade These physical pro-
perties are cleavage, fexibility, eastici-
ty nonconductively Of heat and cleo
tricity, transparency, and brilliancy OF
cleavage faces.

sTRUCK BY TRAIN.

Herman Nauss, Burlington section
man at Redlern, is in st. Joseph's hos
pital with number of severe cuts and
bruises on his head, the result Of being
struck by the engine which brought No.
l4l into Deadwood yesterday. Nausss
escape from death is miraculous, Evi-
IDENTIFY under the influence of liquor he
fell on the track near Redfern and was
lying there, with his head on rail,
when the passenger train from the east
reached that point. Engineer Frank
Heron saw the man in time to slaken
the speed of the engine considerably,
but not enough TO avoid hitting him.
The pilot struck his head aud showed
him from the track, where he lay un-
conscious when picked up. He was
placed in the baggage car and brought
to Deadwood and taken to st. Joseph s
hospital. An examination made by DR..
Howe showed that the skull had not
been fractured and it is expected he will
be out in week or ten days. The fact
that he had been drinking was made
plain when a bottle of whiskey was
found in his pocket, after he had been
picked up. Pioneer Times, %.

NOTABLE EVENT.

Capt. G.. V. Gardner left for Hot
Springs last evening to meet three of his
brothers one of which he has not met
but once in many years The record of
the Gardner boys" is one they may be
just proud Of. There are five of them,
all living today. During the civil war
they served in the aggregate more than
sixteen years. All entered service as
privates -Four left it commissioned Of
ficers, three as captains and one lieu
tenant All have served in positions of
honor and trust in civil life.
The only one not commissioned
Washington, the youngest, who enlisted
when scarce sixteen years of age-has
been secretary of the state of Michigan
six years, a member of congress twelve
years, ten of which he was member OF
the Appropriation Committee, and two
years ago at the National Encampment
of the Grand Army of the Republic at
Chattanooga, Tenn, was elected Com
mander in Chief by acclamation, being
the first private ever elect ed to that dis
tinguished position. He is an orator OF
National fame and his home is at Al
bioni Michigan.
The Captain has written him urging
that he meet the other four at his home
at Piedmont on the Fourth of July.
Should he be able to do SO, it will be
the first time they have all been to-
getber in more than sixty-seYen years
Without a doubt if he can comply
| with the invitation, it will stand as a
record unequaled in the entire nation, oi
five brothers clasping hands more than
fifty years after the close of the war in
which they played so honorable part

COUNTY RECEIVES

OS1OOL MIN 1ELGo.
The state land department has made
its June apportionment of interest and
income funds to the common schools
and it amounts to $780, OO974I, or $4.27
per pupil The total lapportionment this
year is an increase Of S2l ,63S69 over the
June apportionment of last year. Con-
sidering the fact that under the new law
the interest on the 1915 sales is not paid
in advance the increase is largely due to
the increase in rentals.
Commissioner Hepperle will put his
field force in the field after July ], to
look after the Unbiased lands and do
topography work.
Black Hills counties will receive
amounts as follows:
Pennington, $ll, 1874

FACTORY STRIKE
Chicago's first strike at a war mu-
nitions factory was called today when
100 machinists walked out at the Hi
nois Tool & Machinery Co., 154 E.
Erie st.
Let me right now slaughter the
bunk that is likely to appear in the
loop press that German agents insti-
gated this strike" said VIM. Schom-
berg, business agent of Machinists'
District Council, No. 8. Let me say
in advance that that is a lie. The
union scale for tool and diemakers
is 1917 cents an hour, for machinists
4312 cents an hour. The Illinois Tool
& Machinery Co. scale is about
cents an hour lower.
1--WE want the regular union scale
and recognition of the union agrees
ment."
Ones most anxious to strike at the
Ill. T. & M. plant today were 40 who
were not union members until after
they walked out.
The immediate grievance against
the company is it's alleged threat to
break up the union in it's plant and
the firing of 80 union sympathizers
this week.
Strikes will be called in four other
plants next week if union wages and
conditions are not granted.

NocKLES CALLS STORY TRIBUNE
PRINTED A ROTTEN LIE

cago Federation of Labor, raped as
lie the story the Tribune carried yes
terday that the Teachers Federation
was not connected with the Fedora
ton of Labor.
ct is one of the rottenest stories
the Tribune has ever published, and
that is going sOme," said NOckles.
However, we cannot expect any
thing else from the Tribune.
ct is vitality interested in the atti-
tude which the mayor takes toward
the Teachers Federation. It would
be obliged to pay triple the rent it
now pays if the federation's campaign
to protect the lands of school children
is successful
1--WE are behind the teachers and
will stick with them, no matter who
lines up against u.s.
