IMPRESSIONS OF PROMINENT VISITORS Cnllfornlanft Movlnc for n Competing Itnll- rund Tlic Irtlcnllcin Problem Samples of Jllnernl Development Suinmnrjr ol .Northwest News. \\hilo there Is no especial rush of business In any of the loading towns ot the Hills yet thcro Is evidence of a steady Incroasa in all material lines of grotvtb.The spring has opened Into In the Hills , as It has elsewhere , and this has retarded work to some extent , but Urn Indications are that tbo summer will bo a vary busy one. Tbo great tlti plant at Hill City will soon bi In operation and the success of this ndw oitorprisa will bo watched with much In terest. This will noc only glvo Hill City a prominent plAce among thocitloiof the Hills , but will In all probability open up a now and very Important Industry in thin region , Ilapld City U pushing tbo schema to build a smelter and Judging from the energy with which the citizens of that vigorous young city tnko bold of now enterprises it seems altogether likely that tbo smelter will bo a reality In Ilapld City before another winter sots in. Hot Springs is pushing ahead as usual , tbo < * " Mptondlil now betel being the Inrgest Improve ment now under way at tbo great health resort ot the northwest. This now hotel will tbo a surprise to visitors at the Seringa. It will contain 1GU line , largo rooms , with thlrty-Ilvo double suites , alliiuppllcd with electric llpht and ovury mouorn convenience. Tbo building is solid stononnd covers an area ICiO fcut f qunrp. It is built In tbo form of H capital H , thus giving an abundance of light nnd the very best of ventilation. Major Evans , tbo owner , will probably retain tbo management of tbo housa himself , although ha mills of leasing it to sotno competent party. U ho stucco works at tbo Sjirings are meet ing with splendid success and the indica tions ai a that this will become one of the lending industries of this section. Therois torao talk of building a motor line out to "Wind cuvo , twelve miles north of the ( Springs. Tbu siuv mills throughout the Hills seem tote to unusually busv this spring , as the demand lor liimbf r for building purposes is qullo Irisli. If it were not for the law prohibit Ing tbo shipping of lumbcroutof thastatotbo demand upon the Black Hills saw mills Vould be much greater. Nebraska would take ull tbo lumber the mills of tbo Hills could furnish , but the law prohibits tbo ex portation o ( lumber cut on jrovernmetitlunds and only that owned by private parties can bo shipped out of the state. Tbo great mines are using more ana moro coal ns the Umber becomes siiarco In the im mediate vicinity of tbo mills. Newcastle coal tinds a ready market in all tbo loading towns of the Hills. Grazing has not been as good this spring as usual oil account of the lateness ot the season , but the cultlo are rapidly picking up now that tbo grass has made a good start. Small grain ( n the valleys and on the prairies adjacent lu the Hills looks well considering the backward season. It is expected that this will bo an important summer for the bills for the reason that a very largo num ber of Influential men from tbo east are be coming interested in various enterprises in the stirring towns in this section , and in all probability the Hills will bo vlsltod this sum mer by a creator number of capitalists and sightseers than over before. " * Visiting Uilgemont and tlm Springs. A distinguished party , consisting of dele- pates to tbo Methodist conference recently bold In Omaha and several citizens of the Nebraska metropolis , passed through Edgc- tnont on the 30th , onrouto to Dead wood and other points in the Black Hills. Tbo party consisted of Judge William Lawrence of Bcllofontaino , O. ; Dr. J. S. Brcckenndgo of the Brooklyn Methodist hospital ; Dr. J. M. Klna of Now York ; Dr. ChurlosS. Wing of Stanford. Conn. ; Hon. E. J. Hill of Nor- walk. Conn. : Dr. George P. Mains ot Brook lyn ; Itov. Alfred Coons of Kingston , N. 'Y. ; j&lr. Horace Candeo of Beatrice ; U. J. Mills , V. < J. Grablo and J. M. Gillan of Omaha. C. J. Grablo of Crawford and F. M. Yroman of Hdgomont clso Jolued the party. The distinguished gentlemen from the east expressed them selves ns being very much pleased with the country through which they bad passed between Omaha ana Edgcmout. They poke In glowing terms of the rich farming lands of Nebraska , and the linn crazing lauds of South Dakota. Judge Lawrence was especially impressed with tbo superior advantages of this region for snoop creed- ing , and declared that , in his opinion , it was the lineal country for sheep that ho had ever eon. The largo tracts of good farming land about Kagcmont were a special sur prise to tbo visitois. Hot Springs was thronged with visitors during tbo past week. Among tbo number were several of tbo delegates to tbo Metho dist conference at Omaha , bovornl of tbo pulpits of thu city were ailed Sunday , May 28 , by prominent Methodist clergymen. Dr. AVlnw of Stamford , Conn. , occupied thu pul pit at tbo Metbodist collect * , and Dr. Mains of Now York preached at tbo Presbyterian church. Jri tbo aftorncon thcro was a mass meeting at the opera house in the Interest of education. The meeting was addressed by Judge Lawrence , Dr. J. , M. King ; of Now York and others. The large bathing resort and all tbo points of Interest about the Springs were taken in ' by the visitors. Sotno'of trio party visited Wind cuvi\ twelve miles north of the cltv , under the guidance of Dr. Hanchor of Hot Springs college' . They were all very much pleased with the trip and with tbo cntorluin- fnent found hero at tbo Springs. Tim Arid Kl'Kloii. Amocg tbo faw eastern papers friendly to the Irrigation movement in the west , tbo New York Bun must bo conceded first olooo. In n recent Issue It says : "Tho bill pending in congress to turn ever to the ctatos And territories tbo arid public lands lying- within their respective limits , ao that tbey may make wbal tboy can of tboso lands bv irri gation , has a sound and sensible basis. It may need to bo guarded by additional re- trlctlons in order to produce tbo most beneficial results. Since tbevatcr courses on which tbo systems of reservoirs , dams -ft&d.dltchcs depend often traverse two or moro stittes. euro Is required in framing legislation of Ibis sort , A danger also to bo guarded against is tbo posslbln perversion of such a project of general bunelll to tbo pur- poies of monopolies nnd rings tbnt might ctuen\lso control local legislatures. Those , Iiowavor , uro details under the geucral plan. The lirst inquiry Is as to whuthor tbo pro posed distribution of tbe and lands is 'ttio wisest one , und of this thcro seems to bo little doubt. "Thu Irrigation necessary to wake tnls vast domain fertllu should bo undertaken by private enterprise understate laws. Thus jar there has bo-su llttlo demand upon con gress for any work except preliminary sur veying uud the segregation of reservoir sites. But after the great areas of furtlla soil now open for homestead settlement shall have been taken up the federal government will be urged , probably , to apply Irrigation to tbo arid lands In order that tney may bring a better price. Tbat Is not tbu busiues > of tha government : and jvuti as a meiisuro of econ omy U should glvo up these lauds now in order that by tbo tlmo tbey are ut'odoJ for occupation , tboy may have been made fertile understate supervision. Of course , mineral lauds would bu exempted from sucb grunts. " Striking ut u Monopoly. California capitalists huvo lit last decided to attack tbu Central I'aclllo monopoly In the mott vulnerable point the construction of an Independent line to Salt Lake City. Ar ticles of Incorporation were filed at tbo state capital last week , signed by Alvluza Hay * vrard , Dnnlul Meyer , William Babcock , K. L. Q. Bteolo and li F. I'roston , all strong men financially. Tbey aro'backed by tha Central Truffle association of tbo stato. The 'Ina will go to Halt Lake via Stockton und will pats over the Sierra range at one of tbo best possible points for the passage of o railroad. 1'be ttr t mrvey enters Nevada vU Beck- with miss , but two other ! hare been made and tbo route has not been dotlnltely decided upon , The Union Pacific has flvo surveys from Its terminus at Ogdeu to San Francisco nnd all ot these routes have been carefully lodkod over by Mr. Cleveland within the past three months. Tbey are all shorter than the Southern Pacific line , which reckons 895 miles from San Francisco to Ogdcn , having lost nearly 100 rr > lle < In following tbo old emigrant trail. This distance will bo saved by the new line which ever route It may tnko , and the grades will also bo much easier , making it possible to get to Ogdcn in about six hours' less tlmo than at present. } There will bo three corporations in the deal. Ono In San Francisco , ono tu NoraJa and n third in Salt Lake. It ls understood that the Xovndn subsidy will bo 81,500.000 and that Utah will give flu , 000 moro than tbo amount above mentioned. Tbo capital Is to bo increased to $10,000,000 as soon as the road Is built far enough to warrant tbo in. creaso. , Ono of tbe creat obit-cU of the company will oo in the development of local freight traffic. Tbo Central Pacific has never done anything to oncourngo the mining Industry iii Nevada or Utah. It has charged rates on ore shipments that wrra simply prohibitory. The now company's line will run through n rich mining territory , which It will develop as rapidly as possible after Its completion. A lilt of Wyoming IJonlor Lifts By something llKo a thousand per cent , Suggs Is tbo liveliest town in tbo state of Wyoming. It li In Sherldnn county and l called for a cattle owner whoso herds rnngo thereabouts. It Is Just now the control point for the Burlington construction In northern Wyoming. Tbo railroad grading is com pleted to within fifteen miles ot that point on Powder rl'/or. The vllllago Is a hummer and affords Wyoming Its only available touch of real high Ufa. It consists mainly of tents and the tents mainly of saloons , iil- tbougb pretty nearly every branch ot busi ness is moro or los represented. Until Saturday last there has been no law or government In the plaeo. Its days nnd nlgbts have been an almost uninterrupted succession of saloon and street brawls. The visitor who had not jot received a black eye was rcnmrkablo for bis oddity. Perhaps In no other similar locality in the country was tboro KiHborcd together such an aggregation of hobos and rifT-raff. Many of them were graders , but many moro are simple hungers- oil , nnd such an uninterrupted succession ot scraps no town In tha stuto has over before seen. A city marshal has now been so- cured. Ho is paid flOO a month , paid by tbo business men , and a deputy sheriff bus bcon assigned by the county commissioners for duty tboro. The city marshal wont on duty Saturday. No sane man envies him bis job. If the present strain is kept up ho must in thn nature of tilings break down. He seems in no wise discouraged , however , and hopes when tbo deputy sheriff arrives to bo nblo to cope with the situation. U is expected the trains will bo running to Suggs by July 4. Tbo work of the Burlington construction Is being pushed with tremendous energy nnd through a country requiring tbo heaviest bind of construction worn. Tbo manager ot Kilpalrlck Bros. & Collins at the front says that ilrm has a contract to complete tbo road ton point ten miles beyond Sheridan , tbo county seat t'f Sheridan county. There are now 1,300 teams employed and about 3,500 men. Tracklaying , temporarily retarded by a strike , is being pushed at the rate of a milo a day. As the weather becomes thoroughly settled the present force will probably be doubled. Tboso in charge of tbo construc tion say the work will bo pushed without in termission until tbo Yellowstone park Is reached and u single direct route provided for tbo World's fnlr visitors from Chicago to tbo very gates of tbo park. Copttr d'Alcna Strike. Tbo struggle of the miners acainst a re duction of wages in tbo Occur d'Aleno dis trict of Idaho shows no sign of abatement. On the surface the mlno owners have tbo best of the tight. A number of non-union man bavo bcon shipped in and several mines are in operation. A fuaturo illustrating the desperation ot tbo employers is that of pay ing tbo now and inexperienced men as much per diem as Iho strikers asked. Tbe latter refused to accept a reduction from 1.50 to $3 per day , Tbo new men are paid the old wucos , acd unskilled labor is paid more than before the strike. But till * Is a trifle In tno bill of expense plle-,1 up for no other purpose than to break down tbo miners union. Tbe fares of imparted men wore paid , detectives and guards employed and court expenses piled up. If tbo mlno owners win the tighten on the original basis now , tbey could not recoup themselves in years. Tbero Is no probability of their succeeding. A number of tbo men brought in are believed to bo members of the miners union , wbo secure work nnd hy various methods help to em barrass the owners. The efforts of the governor of Idaho In the direction of arbitration failed. The mlno owners now threaten to shut down for the year , but us this bluff was tried onca before it is not likely to sc&ro the Btri leers. Alining lu Nevada. Although we have no boom In mining bares , writes Dan do Qutlto In the Salt Lake Tribune , tboro is still always something doing in that line. Many persons have been dabbling In stocks for so many years tbat they would not bo able to enjoy Ufa unless tboy were trying their luck on a few shares. It gives them something to watch and look forward to. Then once in a while some slock takes a jump and doubles. It is never so dull in shares but some continue to dabble in them , and now , as in the old times , tboro are those who are always to bo seou watching the bulletin boards. As regards the mines themselves they bold out wonderfully. Again and again we see it announced lu various quarters that tno "Comstocu mines are exhausted , " but tbo fact Is tbat all goes on about as usual. Thus last week there xvoro worked at the Morgan mill USO tons of Consolidated California & Virginia ore , the average of which was SiO n ton. Ophir ere averages $21.70 a ton and other mines from $14 to 320. South Diikotu Ounrnntlnc. Governor Mcllotto of South Dakota has issued a proclamation governing tbo trans fer of Texas cattle through the state , so as to guard against the Texas fever. All Texas stock brought into the state must bo accom panied by affidavits of two responsible per sons and certitlcd to by a clerk of a court of record , giving the name of tbo owner and coaslgnco and Until destination , the counties from wheune shipped and tbo date of * hip- mont. All cattio coming Into the biato from Texas are to bo unloaded und inspectol by tbo state veterinary surgeon or legal repre sentative. Tbe order affects tbo delivery of nearly 100,000 bead ot stock bound for Montana. NfbriiHkn. Mrs. Isabella Scott , aged 78 , a plocoor of Hebron , 1s dead.
