Game Lodge Offered
The president has been offered by
South Dakota the game lodge which
lies in the largest state park in the
nation, amid more than 36 square
miles of state-owned mountains, for
/ ests and roaring trout-filled streams,
capped by the highest peak between
the Rockies and the Pyrenees Of
4 Spain.
The mansion which would become
the summer seat of government is

with great boulder fire-places and a
governors suite overlooking cliffs
. Where deer come down to Craze on
summer evenings and mountain
goats play tag.
In the Black Hills, so-called be-
cause thick growing spruce make
the range look inky black from a
distance, gold was found in 1876, and
the whites drove out the Indians in
their quest for riches. 1t was in
protection of settlers that Custer
and his men were led to massacre
just over the Wyoming line.
The richest ore lode. was near
Deadwood, which overnight became
the wild west capital of the world
posts lined the gulch which was its
Main street. Gold dust was better
than hard money.
Hickock Was Sheriff
In the pioneer government Wild
Bill Hickok became sheriff, ruling
with hand never too late on the
draw. He had more than two-score
notches in his gun when he died
from bulletin the back.

granite Needles and Harvey Peak

present at last nights meeting and
charged Fargo was refusing to CO.

Huddleston declared that the

He opposes Smith and predicted
that the two,thirds rule would de-

The present indications are that
Gov. Smith win go into the con
vention with greater strength than
any other candidate and that the
real fight will come over an effort
to abolish the two-thirds ruiz"

that Smith can win with this rule
