IN THE ALTO COUNTRY.

It is believed, from information l recently received here, that the
 VIceroy Group of Mines, in the Alto country, will again be
 worked, and on a larger scale
 than when last in operation, says
 last weeks Patagonian. This group, which is a fine copper property, belongs to
 Frank H. Baack, formerly of Janesville, Wis, but now of
 Harvard, III. The group was originally owned by George Clark, Jens Peterson and MT. Baack, the first two later sell ing their interest.
 The Viceroy on the east joins the Bland mine, another excel lent copper property owned by William Powers, Frank Reichert and MT. Hecht.
 Extensive development work has been done on the Viceroy group, and 1t is believed that it will make a big mine at depth. and a success here will give great impetus to the develop ment of the mines in the Santa Ritas. The Burro group and Joplin group adjoin this prop: erty on tine the northwest.
 The Victor mine, copper lead silver proposition owned by Dr. Bacon and others, adjoins the Viceroy on the northeast. The Victor group is patented and considara ble work has been done on it.
 Rev. J. M. Hackett's property, where extensive work has been done. is on the south line of the Viceroy.
 The Ruby Copper Company is about two miles north of the Victor. The Hosey (McDonald mine) joins the Ruby on the north. The Alto and the Royal Blue are only short distance to the northwest. The Wandering Jew joins the Alto on the north west, then comes Josiah Bonds property, and north of that is the Josephine country, which has shown well with consider able development work, several smelter shipments having been made, the ore running close to one hundred dollars ton.

HONOR IS CANIlLE'S.

Nogales, Ariz., April 13.
 Editor Tucson Star: We have noticed in the Star and other Arizona papers a statement that Miss Ora Mathews of Maricopa county is the first woman de- putty sheriff appointed in Ari. zona. We beg to correct this impression since Santa Cruz county has had woman deFuty sheriff and constable since the November elections. Mrs. Lu- cretia Roberts of Camille, Ari- zona, was elected constable of the Camille precinct and imme- diately appointed deputy sheriff. She is proving an efficient off cer, too. The same precinct elected a woman justice of the peace, Mrs. Eason. Mrs. Rob. erts is a fine horsewouan and a crack shot.
 Very truly yours,
 J. B. BRISTOL,
 Secretary of Nogales Chamber
 of Commerce.

 In the list of bcilding permits 1 during the past month and in the records of the Building and Loan Association of Nogales, is to be found the glad story of the prosperity of the Key City of the border.
 And it is significant that prac- tically all of the residences pro- posed and under construction will be a vast credit to the city for their architecture, cost and beauty.
 There will be no shoddy con- struction in the houses. Noga- les builders. Nogales architects and Nogales property owners have seen to that.
 Some people who are building:
 Benjamin M Ashby, conduct or on the Sud Pacifico de Mex ico, is one of the progressive citizens of Nogales who are building. He is constructing a S3,OOO home on Marsh Heights.
 On Marsh Heights also, J. E. Mcintyre is building a fine resi- dence to cost in the neighbor- hood of S4, GOO.
 E. M. Mather will spend S3, 800 on a seven-roomed residence on Marsh Heights.
 George w. Dundbar is con- structing a 5000 home.
 J. D. Barry of the firm of Barry and Barry, attorneys, is building thirty five hundred dollar home on Noon street.
 c. E. Wheeler will build S2, LOGO home on Grand avenue between the Fowler and GliSsau homes.
 w. J. Neumann is building a costly residence on Noon Hill
 Samuel Leeker's fine new re- sideDce on Court street is near completion.

 A. L.. Smith is spending $500 on a building in lot 728, block Is.
 E E. Noon will erect a fine home on Noon Hill.
 w. H. Smith is erecting a splendid residence on Ellis, ad- ditiOn.
 The home of S. F. Noon in Ellis Addition is near compile tiOn.
 These are some of the new homes going up in Nogales. The Building and Loan Associa- tion, which has built 40 per cent of NogaleS, has six out standing applications. At least a dozen others in the city are contem- plating building.-Daily Herald.

All Happened Over a Paper.

A man who was too stiugy to take his home paper sent his small son to borrow a copy from a neigh bor In his haste, the boy knocked over four hives of bees and as result was badly stung. When his sons cries reached the fathers ears the fond parent at once started to his aid, but failed to notice a barb wire fence, which he ran into, running a four dollar pair of pants and cutting himself consid- erably. The family COW took ad- vantage of the hole in the fence by getting into the field and killing herself eating corn. Hear ing the noise, his wife ran out, upsetting a four gallon churn of rich cream into small basket containing some little kittens, drowning the whole family, and in her hurry dropped a S17 set of false teeth. The baby, who was alone in the house, crawled through the spilled cream into the parlor, running new $25 rug. During the excitement the oldest daughter ran of with the hired man and a goat broke his chain and chewed the tails off four shirts on the clothes line.- Exchange.

South Dakota will undoubtedly re-
member 1915 as the very best year in
her entire history, a prophecy already
realized. To save even half of the

has far more than half Of it. A little
more than $25, 900, 900 is the increase
in value of the states principal crops

shown by the government crop report
for October /. Wheat and oats this
year break all records for the number

ten million bushels. The corn crop is
almost as big as last year and the

The Iroquois Chief says the pros
poets of harmony in the republican
party in South Dakota depends upon
whether somebody gets funny and
kicks over the milk pail. A policy of
give and take is absolutely essential
to harmony. Strong arm tactics will
not cement disrupted connections, and
selfish personal interests held above
party success will not get any party
anywhere. Cool judgment and horse
sense are essential when conditions
arc critical, and political manipulators
will do well to look beyond the end of

Some of the old-timers in Brookings
are predicting a cold winter. They
advance the theory that conditions
change every ten years in south Da-
kota, and for the past ten years both
winters and m have been rela-
lively warm in this state. They pre-
dicted a cold summer and 1t was so,
but whether winter acts accordingly
remains to be seen. The state weather
bureau says that on the theory OF aver
age which Is used by the bureau, the
winter should not be a severe one, nor
one with great snowfall. But the gem
erai tenor Of the local ~forecasters, bas-
ed on corn husks, wild fowl flight and
other alleged indications show that a
severe winter is at hand, and it Is up
to the average homesteader to prepare
for whatever class of weather he wants
to look to and take what comes as the
season advances.

South Dakota bankers will take legal
action in an effort to prevent enforce
ment of the banking departments or
der requiring state banks to hold fifty
per cent of their cash reserve in state
banks within the state, as the result
of a meeting by almost 100 bankers in
Mitchell last week. The sanctioning of
this step came with the adoption of the
report of the committee appointed at
Pierre on September II, when a
number Of bankers met with Governor
F. NJ. Byrne and voiced their disap-
proval to the ruling. The recommends
ton for a legal fight was adopted with
enthusiasm and the same committee
was authorized to assume entire
charge of the proceeding. The bank
ing departments order, it has been
claimed, seriously interferes with out
side credit arrangements and is an
illogical spite" order in retaliation
against a federal regulation.
