LEAD BEATS DEADWOOD
IN 4 ONE-SIDED GAME

Something evidently was wrong
with the Deadwood High school ele-
ven yesterday afternoon or else II
went up against a combination that
was too strong for it, and too last,
and the latter is very likely the solu-
ton OF the defeat OF our boys yester-
day by score of 50 to O. From the
kickoff il was Leads game, and the
fellows there scored almost at viii
sometimes, although there were oc-
casions when our boys put up a game
fight. They will do better next time,
but IT is hard TO build up a fast
team with 50 few men to draw from,
and the boys feel that it was not a
disgrace TO be beaten by 80 fast and
go heavy a team as they went against
yesterday They tried hard to win,
and although the odds were against
them they did not give up, but kept
on trying to score and fighting bac'
as hard as they knew how There
are other days coming, and Dead
wood will be in the game with the
same eleven before the season is
over.
The band accompanied the boys to
Lead yesterday as did most of the
student body, and all were with them
during the time OF the battle The
Lead bows and the students OF the
High school were friendly and our
bows after their defeat received an
ovation for the plucky fight which
they had put up.

New York, Nov. Theodore
Roosevelt criticized President Wilson
in emphatic words in an address at
Cooper Union tonight Discussing
"our nations crisis. the colonel said
a world cataclysm has overwhelmed
civilization, that the times need a
Washington or a Lincoln, but un-
fortunately. we have only another
Buchanan"
He said he had been assailed fol
criticizing Wilson. Il have not said
one thing that is not absolutely true,
he declared. II believe he has drag
ged in the dust what Is most sacred
Of our past, and has jeopardized the
most cital hopes OF our future. He
charged that Wilson had appealed to
the weakest and most unworthy In
American character. I'm fact, before
the world, he has covered this ma
tion's face with shame as with gar
ment," he said.
He assailed Wilson and Baker for
the latter's comparison OF American
revolutionists with Mexican bandits.
He charged that Wilson'S record was
one of side-stepping, turning back
ward and floundering.
Roosevelt urged his hearers to
"put in the presidential chair clean
and upright justice of the supreme
court "a fearless former governor Of
New York. who. whole public record
has been that of a man straightfor-
ward in thought and courageous in
action. who cannot be controlled TO
do what is wrong, but who will do
what is right regardless OF the influ-
ences against him" Concerning hyp-
enates, he said. mo American can

SUGAR BEETS MADE A
MOST SATISFACTORY CROP

Belle Fourche Bee: PIN Dale, agri-
cultural superintendent for the
Great Western Sugar Co, at this
place. informs rs very satisfactory
yields OF beets are being secured from
the experimental acreage grown this
year and while no definite iigu-es are
as yet obtainable on the entire acre
age grown. tests show the sugar con
tent to be from IA to 20 per cent. and
the beets are going from eight to
fifteen tons per acre. II Is expected
to have the entire crop harvested b,
November Is.
This is considered very good
showing for the first year of growing
beets. and the knowledge gained, not
only by those who have raised beets
but by iheir neighbors who have
wa lched the operation, will result IN
an increased tonnage per acro next
year.
Representatives of the sugar COM
pany have been visiting the farmers
during the past three weeks for the
purpose of getting acreage contracts
for next year, and In some instances

been found, many farmers signing up
a much smaller acreage than had

HOME LODE COMPANY
INCREASING ITS HOLDINGS


Negotiations were recently closed
whereby the Home Lode Mining com
pany, operating on Sunnyside gulch
near Silver City, has come into pos
session of the Saunders property on
Jenney gulch. adjoining the Home
lode. A short time ago Manager
Richards of the Home lode property
caused some of it's equipment to be
moved over onto the Saunders
ground and began sinking shaft.
The shaft had reached a depth oil
something over 100 feet when the
water began to come in 30 fast that
sinking had to be abandoned until
such time as a heavier pumping
equipment can be installed. AFTER
sinking had been stopped drifting
was started from the 100-foot level
and had not proceeded far when
vein. running parallel to the one toT
which the shaft was being sunk was
encountered. This has proved to be
very rich, its values being contained
in ores carrying gold. silver and anti
mony. The vein, where IT has been
struck In the drift is over seven feet
In width and gave no indications OF
its presence on the surface. The
new strike has caused considerable
excitement in the district, for the
ore is the richest that has ever been
struck there, and its values are
equally distributed across the widtf
Of the vein. While II Is known to be
very high grade. Manager Richard 5
has declined TO give out any figures
on II, while admitting that II Is -thc
best thing that has been uncovere
In the southern Hills since the rich
days OF the Holy Terror. Work OF
developing the new find is being con
tinued. and so soon as new pumping
machinery can be installed the shaft
will be lowered, probably to the 300
foot level and drifts started to tar
the vein at that depth. The new
property acquired by the Home Lode
company consists of III acres, heav-
lily wooded and close TO transporta-
tion facilities. People who have re.
Gently visited the new find declare
that II has all of the appearances of
being one of the best things that hae
ever been struck in the district, and
that its development will mean much
10 that section of the Hills.
Work is being continued on the
Home lode with good results. and
the big vein of ore which has been
opened up is looking better every
day. Manager Richards is employ
ing a. large force of men on its de-
velopment and is not allowing work
on II to slacken because OF the recent
find in the Saundera group. He ex-
pects to have the property in shape
by the early spring so that should
II be deemed advisable modern
milling and treatment plant can he
erected upon the property with the
assurance that IL viii always have
supply of ore OF good grade, and this
fact, coupled with the recent fr
in the Saunders group would indi-
cate that the property will soon be
in the list of paying producers and
that Silver City will become one o
the important mining centers of the
Black Hills. The new find has caus-
ed other property owners in the
vjncinity to take more active inter-
est In their holdings and the result
has been that at the present tim,
there Is much work going on there.
