Prospects for a good mill on either July { or 8, at Naco, are improving daily. Manager Sid Cobun of the Naco Athletic Club is busily engaged with the problem of securing the best talent the section has to offer
 Manager Cobuu was endeavoring to match Frankie Bay the Douglas boy with George Memsic, long known to fame in the calcium of things fis- tic Memsic has been heard from, however, and has declined 10 leave his position in Los Angeles.
 As a consequence. Cobuin is casting about for other material In the light weight division the most promising outlook is for Larry Strouer. The boxer is one of the best in the South west at the present time. He recently was discharged from the Thirteenth cavalry. which was stationed at Fort Bliss and then at Columbus, New Mexico. His record is a very excellent one and guarantees a good show with any one

SECY. BRYAN RESIGNS
SAYS There is no Personal Break Between
Himself and President Wilson
Not Wholly Unexpected.

Washington. ID. c., June 9-Rather
than endorse President Wilson's second
uote to Germany, and attach to it his
signature as Secretary of State for the
United States, William Jennings Bryan
yesterday afternoon rendered his resig-
nation. 1t was st once accepted
This action followed the cabinet meet
ing yesterday at which the final draft of
President Wilson's second note to Ger
many was submitted. Secretary Bryan
made known his disapproval of the pre-
emptory tone of the communication and
opposed it from fear that it might ulti-
mately draw the United States into the
European war To this Bryan is so
strongly opposed that he preferred to
sever his official connection with the
administration rather than endorse the
presidents rejoinder to Germany's reply
to the first note. The president accept
ed the resignation promptly, in per-
sonal letter expressing deep regret. 1t
has not yet been indicated who will be
named to succeed Bryan.
Bryan today paid the president his
farewell official call. But he stated that
he would make other visits as private
citizen.
He stated that he favors arbitration in
such differences as have arisen with
Germany, rather than appeal to
arms. And that he will now do what
he can to chrystallize the sentiment of
the country in favor Of such views. He
stated that while the president is honest
in his views as to the best course for the
United States to pursue, he regards his
own views as best.
He asserted that there is no break in
the personal relations between himself
and the president, but that it was pure
ly on a difference of views as to the
proper course which the United States
should now pursue. And that such
differing views are irreconcilable.

At the meeting of the board Of county
commissioners June 3rd, the plans and
specifications submitted by Architects
Eisentraut x Bartholz of Rapid City for
two additions to the Custer county court
house were approved and the auditor
was instructed to advertise for bids.
Plans are on file in the Office of the
county auditor and at the Office of the
architects in Rapid City. Bids will be
received up to o'clock p. m. July 18th.
The advertisement appears elsewhere
in this issue. The plans and specifi-
cations call for two additions, one on the
east and the other on the west side OF
the court house. They will contain
modern vaults for the county treasurer,
register of deeds, auditor and CLERK Of
courts. The second floor is to be used
for jury rooms and offices. This is a
much needed Improvement as in the

WAR ON WOLVES.

Plans are well under way for the
opening of an active campaign against
predatory animals throughout the West,
on July |, at which time the recent
Congressional appropriation becomes
available. A representative Of the bio
logical survey of the Department of
Agriculture is now in the West, seeking
the cooperation of Stock Growers AS
sociations and others interested in the
project.
Under the provisions ofthis Act, $685.
600 is to be expended on the National
Forests and the Forest Service, at the
request of the Biological Survey, under
whose administration the work will be
supervised, has already listed the Nation
al Forest areas where the question of
predatory animals deserves attention.
The Forester has also recommended the
names of such Forest officers and local
residents who, through their experience
and knowledge of conditions are quail
fed to receive appointments as hunters,
trsppers and inspectors.
1t is planned to divide the West into
series of districts somewhat similar to
those of the Forest Service, each of
which will be placed in charge of Dis
trict Inspector.
The war on Coyotes and Wolves is re
garded as being particularly important
at this time because of the existence of
rabies oyer wide region in the North
western States. 1t is probable that for
a long time rabies has existed among
these animals, but with an increasing
population the danger to human beings
and live stock is much greater

TRAVELLED THROUGH MOST
OF THE CIVIlIZDn yyOp


Will. II. Harrison, formerly of Custer,
arrived Saturday from Seattle, Wash,
for a short visit with Custer friends.
Mr.. Harrison left Custer fifteen years
ago and during those years has travelled
through most of the civilized world
The outbreak of the great war found
him near Storaropal, South Russia. He
made his way to Rosloff-on Don and se-
cured passage to the Crimea in a small
boat down the River Don. Thence by
steamer "Yalta," which has since been
sunk by Turkish warships, to Odessa.
From Odessa by Italian boat TO Syra.
cuSe, Italy, via Constantinople and the
Dardanelles, visiting enroute Salonika
and Athens, Greece. From Syracuse he
made his way to Paris by train. While
in Paris he had the experience of a
German Air Raid" a bomb from a
''Taube" landing on the opposite side of
the street from where he sat. Mr. n.
reports that the French people took the
war rather philosophically, did not be-
come greatly excited but realized that
they must settle down to fight for their
life. He ridicules the reports of atroci-
ties by the Germans, lauds them for
their 100 per cent efficiency in war as in
peaceful pursuits and suggests that Eng
land is probably more to blame for con.
ditions in Europe than many people
suppose if the real truth were known.
He does not think the Germans justified
in sinking the Lusitania, neither does
he think the English justified iu loading
counterbands and non-combatants on
the same ship, and making no provision
to guard same.
Mr.. Harrison arrived in New York
Sept. 18th and came directly to his com
pauy at Canton, Ill. On Sept. Goth he
left for Cuba. spending the month OF
October in various parts Of the island.
He went to Canada in February and
made a trip through Western Canada in
the interests Of his company, took trip
to Vancouver and Victoria on the Pacific
Coast and dropped off to see us on his
way through from Seattle to Chicago.
He expects to depart for foreign lands
again next month.

TO CONCENTRATE ANTIMoNY ORE

TO CONCENTRATE ANTIMoNY ORE
Henry Morrow, one of the early day
proSpectors of the Silver City district,
and an owner of valuable antimony car
rying veins, was in town this week from
his mining property. He came to see
McNish & Mills and the mill in which
they have successfully concentrated tin
ore, to learn if they could concentrate
antimony ore, and if so, to make ar
rsngements for test run. Antimony
has nov reached price at which figure
Mr.. Morrow thinks he can produce the
mineral at profit, and if the test run
should demonstrate that this can be sue
cessfully done, plant will probably be
erected near the mine to produce the
mineral, for which there is now good
market.-Hill City News.
