AlUEHlt WELL IS DAkOTt.
Work has boon ijuiotly going on In
.South Dakota for the past year w hich
seems to prove that the artesian wells
of the James river valley are as valu
able and reliable water iiowcr as
could ! wished, ami from all indi
cations will continue to be so for
yours to come. Already a number
of electric light ami fl air mill plants
have licen installed, and are lu' daily
operation.
The artesian well district of Houth
Dakota is located In the valley of the
James river, covering a tract uhout
10 miles wide antl -MO miles long.
The James river Is alnait half way
between the Missouri ami the eastern
boundary of the state. The water-
hearing rock is found at from ODD to
1,000 feet from the surface. The first
ami most vital question that comes
up is as to whether the supply is
roliuble, ami can tie depended on to
continue with Its present pressure, a
more wells are sunk ami a greater
volume of water is drawn from the
umtorground source.
There are good reasons for think
ing that the supply Is inexhaustible.
These reasons are based both on the
theories advanced by the United
Htates government geologists and on
observed facts in connection is found
ed on the fact that the same stratum
in which the water is found outcrop
in the beds of the upper Missouri
and Yellowstone rivers antl at the
base of tho llocky Mountains. The
water, sinking in this po.ous stratum
of rock, follows it for hundreds of
miles, until tapped by the South
Dakota wells. It has long been be
lieved that there is more water in
the Missouri river above the Great
Falls than there Is thirty miles be
low. For twenty-five or thirty miles
below the fulls the river bed is com
posed of the ama sand formation in
wnion me rtuutn Jhtkoiu wells go
their water. If this theory lso.irivot
as it probably Is, the supply of watt r
to these wells may be lofiktsi iim n
inexhaustible et lt'-t o much so as
the sources of our Rocky Mouutalu
streams. Another -fait that would
point strongly to the truth of this
theory Is that during the June rU
la the upper Missouri river the pros
Sure In the wells rises. No dimlmi
tlon la pressure has been noticed ii
ny of the wells in the (list rlet, except
by clogging up with mud, due to
improper piping. Tho city well at
RetlfleUi has boon tlown seven years
Its pressure has loen constant, al
though .numerous 'other wot!- luw
since been sunk at no preat tlistaiioes
from it. Tills well furnishes u tlirei l
irewsure system of witter works sup
ply all domostic needs of tho city, ami
at) great contblonoe is placed iixn the
pressure ami supply that tho tire
department requires no fire engines,
The closed pressure of this well is
177 pounds and cost fur maintenance
is absolutely nothing.
About a mile and a half distant is
another well, used fr runnliu olec
trio light plant ami for irrigation
A description of this well will suffice
to give a fair idea of nil. It is 1,000
foot deep, and six inches in diameter
front top to bottom. When closed,
the pressure is lti" pounds. When
allowed to flow freely through the
six-inch pipe, it yields ',0J7 gallons
per minute, and rises to it height of
sixteen feet iu tho air. When the
water la escaping through u two
Inch pipe the well pressure Is 12
pounds, and with a two and three
fourths Inch opening nenety-tlve
pounds. From this it is estimated
that with a four-foot IVItou wheel,
eighty borse-powcr would be de
veloped With a two-inch opening,
and 100 horse-Mver with a two ami
three-fourths Inch. With the plain
undershot wheel nt present in place,
fifty horse-jiower is developed, ami it
Is calculated that fifteen more is
available with it. The (low is ah
olutely steady. This well cost .!,
0 hi.
' At Chamberluiu a l-M) hair el Hour
mill ami light plant, formerly run by
steam, is now lining "won power."
Those two plants wer.' started iu
1s about to be sunk by the city, t.,r
electric lighting purposes. Tin1 llol
electric light plant in the state, run
frotn.a well, is nt MelloUe, a town of
4iM) inhabitants. It is sale to say
that very few plants in the world are
dying a paying business ia sn small
a place. This place is thriving, how
ever, and has oonnecud ton four
ampere arcs and 1 r-lxleen-oaudle
power Incandescent. The well is
only four and t half inches in di
ameter from top to boiiiiui, but it
operates, beside the ilcctrie light
plant, a flour mill, which grinds
hnrrels of flour a day mid lifty bush-
p, ' fcf,d
per hour. Tliis work
would require an engine of forty
horse-power. The well is '.no fot
deep. Its pressure when closed is
ITS pounds. The flow Is l,;o' gitl
Ions per minute.
Tho outlay for an eighty horse
power well is about M.ooii, tho bit
erest on which would be f J.i'i js r
horse, power ht annum. Thlsi
with the interest and depreciation
on the water wheel, is the only ex
pense for primary motive power,
aside from labor. A H0 or flno
building gives the wheel and dyna
mo a good shelter. The repairs to
the wheel ought to b almost zero,
antl the skill of tho men employed
for atteudum-c does n it hegiu to be
that required in u ste.nu pi int.

The strength of Mr. Heed's splen
did championship of protection is
s?naloiu the frankness and fair
ness with which he appronchcs the
solution of that vexed and lrresKjnsi
hie question. Who pays the tariff
duties, the foreigner or the American
consumer? This has Imsmi the battle
ground of endless tariff .speakers ami
editorials. Mr. Rood cleaves through
the issue in his incisive and charac
teristic way. He points nut that
sometimes tho consumer pays the
tariff tax, or duly; sometimes the
foreigner. To the extent to which
the foreigner is willing to accept
smaller profits to gel u market here
he pays the tariff tax. So far ns the
foreigner is not u tiling to make
suih abatement the n-idtio of the
taxes is paid by the consumer. This
cuts the supports from under the free
trade asumrtion that the entire

I take the position that there is no

money value attached to It. The
government by coining money, and
stamping it a certain amount, dot
no! attach any value to it thereto.

quality of the metal. So stumped
gold is the only money of the world
aud all other values are regulate
thereby. The U. S. f-'O gold piece
will pay a debt of J0 in any country
in the world, liccause the face of It
or stamp on it, is a guaranty by thi.
government that it possesses tha
amount of bullion value, suvti
coin is only money In proportion h
its bullion value, or being surround
ed with those circumstances that
would lead to its conversion itt
gold, would give it a ftce value, ami
all other mediums of exchange an
valueless, unless there Is a promist
to pay in coin of bullion value at
tacbtsl to them. The silver dollar i
held up to the gold dollar in value,
but tho steady decline in silver, tin
worltl over for the last '29 years, at-
counts for the silver dollar not hav
ing a dollars' worth of silver in it,
and in this is the danger from tin

This is how the Gadsden, (Ala.)
Timos-News (Dem.) rebukes its
parly in congress. The republican
party got into power and kept there
by bold policies, vigorous construc
tive legislation, ami party discipline
that mude the organization as com
pact as an army. When it hail a big
piece of legislation on hand nts?essary
for party snot-ess, it didn't mouth
antl rant ami uhlrk ami quarrel and
dawdle ail summer over It. It
didn't paralyze its purpose with in
decision and divided counsels. It
didn't drive Itself Into a-corner shiv
ering w ith fear at the phantom of
possible consequences. None of those I
ftiollsh and cowardly things did It do
but it went right ahead with the
courage of its convictions, and hav
ing determined on a measure, put it
through with promptness; nnd if the
present congress doesn't do business
on tho same lines in the matter of
tariff reform, the coat tails of the
democratic party will hit the ceiling
next fall aud there will bo a lull,
sickening thud, followed by an awful
democratic silence.

In many particulars the career of
Mr. Gladstone has been one of the
most notable in history. The sixty
years and over of his public life has
hud few parallels iu his own couutry
where service in isilitlcnl office ofteu
covers lunger period than are kn iwu
In auy other country. In the whole
of the 12 years which have passed
since he became chancellor of the
exchequer In the coalition ministry
of the Earl of Aberdeen he has been
one of the towering figures in liritish
politics. He has broken the nge rec
ord in the premiership, holding that
nthVe when older than auy of his
predecessors In tho pa-t.- He has
broken another record also In con
nection with that post In holding it
oftener than any other man. The
Earl of Derby wai prime minis e
thrtsi times, but Gladstone has hml
the position four limes, entering that
office In Isfi for the flrt lime, after
the first overthrow of his great rival,
Uenjamln Disraeli, who later on l
came the Earl of Reacnnsfleld.

furnishes no parallel to the duration
of (he service of Gladstone. John

OF
In some recent reiulnl.-cences of
Walter Scott, published by a vener
able Scotch lady, Is a pathetic
glimpse of the novelist in the day
Immediately succeeding hi realiz t
tion of his financial ruin. The father
of the little 8-year-old girl, Who is
now the old lady of the retnlnstviui's,
was one of Scott's closest friends, ami
to this friend's house he came ouu
afternoon for solace and rest.
It so haptiencd that we were enter
taining guests that day, and Kir
Walter naturally did not feel equal
to meeting any ordinary acquaintance
at a time when he was suffering so
much from anxiety and dopreitsiou
of spirits. My mother therefore In
stalled him comfortably la a room
whore he would lie quite undisturbed,
regretting that both she and my
lather wore obliged to leave hint for
an hour or two in order to attend to
their visitors. She noticed that ho
was looking with hi usual kind
smile toward her youngtvd child,
who hud followed her into the room,
and, thinking that he might welcome
ny interruption to his own aad
thoughts, sho saltl to -him, "Shall I
leave my little F with you?
Perhaps she may amuse you till we
can come back?" "Yes, do, by all
neans," he said;" I shall be glad to
have her.
She wont out leaving me alwne
with him. I seem to see him now,
seated in an easy chair near the tire,
with his back tu the light and hi
kind face in shadow a ha turned It
toward me.
"Come hen1, my dear, aud alt on
ny knee," ho said. Ho lifted me up
tml put hi arm round ite, and I
leaned against hi breast, thinking
!iov happy I was to be all alone
villi him, for I loved him much.
"Now, my dear girl," he said, "I
know you like me to tell you stories,
but do you know I have not ifot a
-ingle story In my head today; no we
will make a complete chanire for
in -e, and you shall tell ine a atory,
which 1 will listen to, Instead of
talking this time."
I made no difficulty whatever
tbout doing as he deal red. for I
entered upon Authorship at a very
early age, and wrote a novel in large
text in an old account-book, which
drew shouts of laughter from my
elder brothers when they chanced to
see if. I therefore begau at once
with the coolest effrontery to give
tho great writer the benefit of my
fanciful Ideas, and invented then and
there a long romance about giants,
furies and water kelpies supernatur
al phantasms of that dcacription be
ing at all time the objects of my
special predilection.
Hir Walter listened with the utmost
good humor, ami I think with some
amusement as ho laughed out heart
ily every now and then; and when
mother came at last to relieve him
from my society ho lifted mo down
to the floor with a kind embrace,
saying:
"Well, Mrs. 8 , your little girl
has undoubtedly got plenty of Imag
ination, at all events."
With all Sir Walter's remarkable
ohiallty and playfulness when
among children, this old lady adds,
he was tenacious of his dignity In
some resects, and especially In re
gard to his own Christian name,
which had come to him through
long line of ancestors and was much
prized by him. "He was much In
the habit of giving fanciful names to
us children. One of my sisters,
whose little fair head was adorned
witli many ringlets, he always called
Curlinda, and some of us, In a spirit
of imitation, ventured once to Seak
of him as Kir Wattle. We were
most promptly checked by our
mother, who suld that nothing
would annoy our kind friend more
than to have his beautiful namo
altered in an way, and that we must
never venture to take such a liberty
again; nor did we from that day
forward."
The Kjp treasurer of Custer county
is reported short in his accounts all
the way from 7,000 to tl",000. The
gang of reformers with which the
county Is infested, have borrowed
tho county money from tho simple
old man, and now they arc unable to
pay it back, ami he and his bonds
