POTASH NEAR PRINaLE.
PRrNGLE S. d., Nov. 16, 1915.
EDITOR CUSTER CHRONICLE,

Custer, South Dakota.
DEAR SIR:-I see by the papers in the
northern Hills that Cy. Robbins and
James Demereau have recently discov-
cred big body Of Potash in their min
ing property near Pringle This prop.
erly should have appeared first in the
CHRONICLE but it seems that your re.
porter either did not think it worthy of
mention or else it was not on his line of
march and he never heard Of it, But il
is true all the same, Although we have
owned the mine for twenty years, we
have always held it as gold mine aud
never knew that we had potash until a
month ago.
The papers announced that the mine
was under bond and lease but this is not
true, and the mine is free and open TO
examination and purchase to any one
who wants a potash mine cheap for
cash, the price being S20,000.00. The
vein is vertical and crops out for 800
feet in length and 60 feet in width and
we have a shaft sunk in the middle Of
the outcrop 30 feet deep. How far the
vein runs into the mountain is unknown
and how far ii extends into the valley is
unknown, but the figures above given

amount of ore in sight and it amounts
to 60, 900 tons. The ore which is com
posed mostly of feldspar and silica car
ries about $1,000 per ton in gold in addi-
ton to the feldspar. The combined
amounts to $1,000 per ton. As / have
said the mine is free and will remain
free until it is sold and that time may
h.. larc, oh II
to us as we do not feel the sensation of
owning large paying mine at all un-
comfortable. 1t is one of those mines
the kind of which 1--WE long have sought
and mourned because we found it" not
because We can mine and ship the ore
and obtain all the money we require to
live, especially in a dry town.
1t don't take long to take out $50, 900. 90
where the mine can be worked with a
steam shovel and when thus worked to
the present depth of the shaft the value
Of the output will amount to something
over a million dollars. But we have
right here other mines that we value far
higher than this, one in particular. A
vein 10 feet wide and vertical, that car
ries gold and platinum about equally in
weight, but the platinum according to a
French chemist runs 1900 franks in
platinum alone which according TO our
money amounts TO $4,000 per ton. This
mine we will sell and give a man all the
time he wants providing he will guar
antee to work the mine continuously
during the term of his bond and lease.
You see circumstances alter cases.
Accept of my best wishes. Jim sends
regards. Yours,

IN MEMORIAM.

Francis Hugh Kubler, the son
OF Joseph Kubler, the publisher
Of this paper, came TO sad and
untimely end on Wednesday,
the 18th day of November, 1915,
at the age Of twenty-three years,
seven months and three DAYS.
His death was caused by an
accident while riding on the
south bound Burlington passen-
ger, the body being found about
four miles south of town.
Francis, or Frank as he was
generally known, was born in
Custer, April IA, 1892, and grew
TO his young manhood in this
vicinity. He was an exception
ally clean, upright and refined
young man and was held i'm high
regard by all who knew him.
he was q Loving and loyal son
and brother, a true and steadfast
friend and companion and
worthy citizen, The entire com
munity feels the awfulness ofthe
tragedy which snufied out his
bright young life. His parents,
brothers and sisters will ever
mourn his death, and it is to
them especially heart-rending
that they had no opportunity to
soften his departing moments
with the loving care and atten-
ton that the heart yearns to be-
stow upon a dear one as he pass
es over the divide into the great
unknown where waits the God
of the Universe to welcome him
to the everlasting life.
There remain to mourn his de-
mise his father and mother,
Joseph and Louise Kubler, who
have lived in Custer for over
thirty-fve years, his brothers,
Joseph w. Kubler, residing at
Custer, Carl II. Kubler and vii.

GOOD EXTRACTION
Mill Run at School of Mines on Ore From
Dansby District Gives Extraction
of $l7.os in Gold.

The property from which Emery Kemp
and Chas. Bush recently made a couple
of ton shipments of ore to the School Of
Mines at Rapid City, of which mention
was made on the second page in last
weeks CHRONICLE, is situated eight miles
west from Custer and is developed to a
considerable extent by various shafts
and open cuts for a distance of several
hundred feet along the ore body. The
largest shaft being some seventy feet
deep and the vein in this shaft runs
from two and half to seven feet in
width. The shaft from which the last
ton of ore was shipped for laboratory
and milling tests IL hnt thirty feet deep
and an extraction Of $l798 in gold was
made. A little over 81 per cent of the
values we're recovered, AZ. per cent by
amalgamation and 44.2 per cent by cyan.
idation. Messrs. Kemp and Bush ex-
pect to resume sinking in this thirty foot
shaft early in the spring and carry it to
the 100 foot level. Very good value is
shown in all of the workings and the
veins are in place between hornblend
granite walls. The property has been
pronounced by a number Of mining men
as very promising one.

preserve embraces an area of 8 by IL
miles and just how it is possible for the
petitioners who have the honor of re-
siding within the confines of this pre-
serve and yet be from 10 to 10 miles
from the buffalo pasture, is indeed
conundrum exceedingly hard to solve.
Perhaps, MIR. Forester, you can supply
us ignoramouses with the solution to
this momentious and perplexing puzzle.
1t is also remarked by the Forester that
there are gates on practically every cut
of. This is also untrue as there is
cutoff and wood road which has been
used by wood haulers and others for the
past 80 years upon which there is no
gate. 1t is further alleged that none of
the circulators of the petition have suf-
fered any damage occasioned by the elk.
This is also untrue as the writer person.
ally knows of two of the circulators Of
the petition who have had their crops
partially destroyed by the elk. One Of
these parties who rented the ranch ad-
joining them (the best in the preserve)
lost practically all their crop upon it as
their grain did not average more than
five bushels TO the acre. What do you
know about this Mr.. Forester. 1t is
plainly evident that the write-ups con-
tributed to the various publications by
state officials and the author Of the game
preserve were formulated to hoodwink
the people aud keep them in ignorance
relative to the true conditions existing
in the preserve. No truer saying was
ever uttered than that of Abraham Lin
coin, 'you can fool part of the people
part of the time, but not all of the people
all of the time"
Come again Mr.. Forester, and we will
acquaint the general public with a few
more suppressed facts.

THAT TERRIBLE SEAMEN'S LAW

m HERE is more bad news from the front.
The Seamen's law, that must be, willy-nilly
changed, amended, repealed, wiped off the statute
books and all that sort of stuff at the next session
Of congress- at special session if ii can be Sc
cured before il has chance to wipe the American
flag off all the coolie-nranned steamers in the Pa
cfic ocean, is due for another broadsde from special
privilege advocates
Last week Hind, Rolph & Co. let a contract to
the Union Iron Works Of San Francisco for the con-
strucon of a steamer to cost s75o,ooo to ply be-
tween San Francisco and Oriental ports and TO fly
the American flag. The Matson Navigation Co.
about the same time let contract to the same COM
pany for a million-dollar ship to ply between San
Francisco and Honolulu, to be finished in 1917, and
the Standard Oil Co. ordered from the same firm
a tank steamer to cost so8o,ooo All of the boats
will fly the American flag on the Pacific ocean,
and, incidentally, are being built in union shop.
What's the matter with those fellows Haven't
they heard about the Seamens law, or is ii just pos
sble that the law isn't as bad as il is painted by
