THE BLACK SILLS. Amid the rise and fall of other min- ing comps in the weet, the Black ‘Hills has pursued its course of steady through development with a regulurity which has been in strong cont-ast to the feverish excitement subsequent collapse which has marked the history of more recent and loudly puffed mining districts. year which is closing has been one of general prosperity to the camps of the Dakota Eldorado. The work of development in the various mines has heen greater than in any prec:d- ing year in ite history. Thousands of dollars have been expended carefully and judiciouely in theerection of mills, hoicting works and water privileges. neive law suits between conflict- ing cliims have been settled, the wild-cat clement has almost entirely ared from operations of the companies, and epeculation has given way to legitimate business in which swindling stcekholders hes yiolded to an earn. to make the lsrgest profits t manner. The result is in the hoavy dlyidends which o principal companies have declared e year to their stockholders, notwithstanding the extensive explo tations made in the different proper- ties, Tho Homestake company dur- ing the lpest year has paid in diri dends £420,000, and provious to that daute, $240,000; the Desdwood com- puny bave psid during the year, 8300, 000; the Father DeSmet, $240,000; th iden Terra, §75,000; the Great E. , $16,000, and other less de- veloped mines in proportion. Deadwood hes risen from the ashes of her grest conflageation and substan- tinl fireproofs fill the places of the old whantics which lined the sides of the gulch. Two railroads heading toward the Hills have brought in many new faces and a large amount of capltal to wtill further develop the resources of the country. Farma are springing up everywhere in the valleys, grist mills dready supply the Black Hills with an abundance of food, and thousands of catcle are grazing in the adj.cent and an The mining interests of the Hills on & better and safer basis than | or bgfore, a.d the showing of the mines for the next twelve months will bo even better than for the past year. Tho Black Hilla Times says, i spesk- ingof the future prospects of the re- glon: Dividends are paid after cur- Tent expenses, and the tens of thou. ®ands of dollars that have been ex- peaded during the last year will not have to be done over again, and each wone of which adds to the wealth of the company and tends to the increase of the output of bullion. And again, during the past year the milling from our mines has been principally from the surface and from exten- xive tunnels, in which it was cheaper to mill the waste in many instances than to getrid of it in any other way. Inmany of these'mines there has been <od work done in the way of pros- do which tnou- wands of dollars have been expended, wnd which has shown up the location and extent of the ore bodies and will 10t have to be done again, and gives them a thorough knowledge of their properties. None of these mines are more than prospected at this date,and it can be truly said that they have only just commenced working them. INCREASED POSTAL FACILITIES. Postmsster-General Maynard, in his annual report, appeals to congress >r an Increased nppropriation for the p stal service. It is to be hoped that 20 request will meet with a more lib- wral vesponse than that of the pre- coding year. Our postal service throughout the whole of the western country, where offices are farapart 4 stage routes long, is sedly lacking in «fliciency,and erippled by insufficient means for ite proper extonsin, The constent Increase of small settle- menta in remote portions of the front- i creates s noed for postal commune icitions which it is the im- porative doty of the post- «ffice department to eupply. Itis due to the ehifiing of population, to con- # aut immigration and to the incresee «f small scttlements that the star 7 e service has proved insufficient. tern people, who examine with eur- 17i%0 the estimates for the postal ser- “ice in the western states and terri- i res, have little idea of the distances -+veled or the inconvenience attend- ing the transportation of m; across the mountaizs and plains of the grest trans-Missc ountry. Msny ot ocur senators snd representatives seem equally ignorant of the subject, A little geographical study and an ex- amine’ on of the census tables would soonjsliow such doubters that the con- ditions, east and weat, are widely dif- forent, and that heavyexpendituressre requisite to give eny postal facilities to the people of the far west atall adequate to the wants of trade and the development of the country. Nebraska is in many respects better eupplied than many of her neighbore, Her postal facilities are yet sadly lack- ing. It wasuot untila few months azo that the South Platte conntry en- joyeda postal car service and received *heirmail with anything like regalar- ityand dispatch. Even as it is, con- stant complaints come into this office of delays i1n the mails,'which can find no excuse in the state of the weather or the condition of the railroade. fhe government should care- fully examine the mauner in which corporations who ars paid for transporting their part of the barpain. Usion Pacific road is chronically deficient in this respect, and scarcely a day passes in which their east boand trains are mot delayed from two to four hours, much to the incon- veuience and loss of Omaha mer- chants. The facilities for the dispatch of the esstern mails from this point might also be greatly improved were the force of our postoffice euflicient to deal with the constant increase of our postal busiess. It is to be earnestly hoped that western eenators snd representatives will urge upon congress a libersl and ample sppropriation both for the im- provement of our present mail service and the ircresss of postal facilities throughout the west. Penuriousness in this department of the government is worse than foolish, it is suicidal. the LITERARY NOIES. St. Nicholas for December will be & surprise to its young readers.

Correspordence of The oe WasnIxGTON, November 20—I see from your papers that you are having amodern version of the old guestion, “Who was Junius.” I happen to know who your “Junius” is, and, ss I received it under no seal of confi- dence, 1 break none in ing that “Junivs” is Mr. James Morris, of ourcity. I have read his letters In The Watchman, and they prove nim to be a strong and conscientious writer, whom I should much prefer to have as an advocate than as an oppo- ment. I have not only read them, but compered th«m pretty thoroughly with the “reccra” and find his state- menta fully subsiantiated in every in- stance. Senator Saunders I see is held by The Republican as responsible for these letters of ‘“‘Junius.” I also happen to know, of a certainty, that the lettors were not begun till_ weeks after Senator Saunders had left Wachington, and that he never s:w them until their publication in The Watchman. Senator Saunders then wrote to Mr. Morris on some business matters of his own, and took occasion to say, “if you wish any advice of mine in regard to your letters to The Watchman, is that you abstain from saying anything egainstmy colleague.” S0 you see, so far from the reflections of The Republican upon Senator Saunders being deserved, he is entitled to the thanks of his colleague for the abrupt termination of » serles, the last of which might prove infin- itely more damaging to Mr. Paddock than the firs, for Mr. Morris res- pected the ice and wrote no more, Mr. Morris claims the right fn cot- mon with every citizen of his state to express his epinion of men who aspire for office, and he is opposed to Senator Psddock, because be believes that he is' not now a true republican, and never has been, and cites the facts that Mr. Paddock once ran for office upon the democratic ticket with J. Sterling Morton and others of that stamp; that he was elected to eongress by democratic votes upon the under- standing that he would favor the dem- ocratic parly, as often charged by The Omaha Herald, and never de- nied; that he retused to vote against pensioning Jeff Davie, and did vote for theappointment cf & rebel to office. Heis opposed to_Senator Paddock because he thinks Nebrasks, with its half ion of people, is entitled to the services of an abler ‘man, and wishes Nebraska to emulate Towa, vhich t3 best men in the front, s it has just done in recalling Kasson i as U. S. muuister at the una, that he might re- sume his seat in the house of repre- sentatives. He is opposed to Senator Paddock for some of his hasty and ill-advised acts, chief of which is hisrecent de- maud for the soldiery to threaten with bayonets and buliets the peace- able, hard working, laboring men of Omaha. For expressing t1; pen to know that § -iator Paddock has sent Mr. Morris & ) tter which can only beregarded ss = threat, and which a3 interpreted by Tie Republican meana dismissal from cffice.

Since these letters of *““Jumius,” through the attacks upon him, have obtained a notoriety they would not otherwise have d, and as many overlooked them at the time of publi- cation, allow me to suggest that Tue Bez, or some other widely ciroulated paper, republish them, or the second aud last, st loast, so that the people wmay be able to judgs for themselves of their merit, and that each repre- sentative, who will have to vote for United States senator this winter, may study Senator Paddock’s record s shown by The Congressional Record, and act upon his own calm and deliberate judgment, Farerrar. pinions T hap- BLACK HILLS NUGGETS Deadwood has a match factory.

The Platte Ricg Endeavoring to Cheat the Republicats of the 46th Senatorial Dis- trict Out of Their Choice. Beastly Bulldozing Resorted To. Arapatoe Ploveer, To cast his ballot as he chooses, for whom he will, and have it it counted, has been the pride of the republican party of the north, and it has always endeavored to reach this end, and while the republican party la not re- sponeible for every canvassing board, it reacts against the party, and its mombers, having the best interests of the party at heart, will not stoop to trickery to equeeze its candidates through. To say the republican rings at North Platte and Sidney have stooped to trickery, mnot trickery alone, but crime, in falsifying re- turns, in betraying their sworn duty to canvass the returns impartially, we epeak the truth, and can prove our as sertions. The counties somprising this district, as set forth in section 24, article 4, - of the constitution of the state of Nebrosks, sayi “Until otherwise provided by lav, sen>torial and representative districts shall be formed and senators and rep- resentatives apportioned as follows: “District No. 26 shall consist of the counties of Lincoln, Dawson, Gosper, Furnas, Red Willow, Frontier, Hitch. cock, Dundy, Chate, Keith, Chey- enne and the unorganized territory west of Frontier and Chase and be en- titled to one senator.” And under this law the vote stands as follows: 2 82 38 363 135 25 s 1 Total, ~ 1ssi 1383 787 Giving Ballentiue a piurality of six votes. But no. The perjured can- vassing board must ring in Sioux county with 414 votes, which is not in the district, in order to elest their capper, Henry Soyder. Maybe the cauvaseing board have the right to bring Sioux county iato this district, but our state lenin{lture, wisely fore. eeeing what a dishonest beard might do, provides in_article 3, section 2, which says: “The legislature shall provide by law after 1885 and every ten years thereaiter, and after its first rogalar session after each enumeration made by authority of the United States, but at no other time the logislature can change the senatorial and repro. sentative districts. In the minds of all candid men the fact of Ballentine's election is settled, but the bold mauner in whi cauvassers, backed by the political | ! prostitutes of the Platte Ring, are playing their hand, will give Sayder ia certifieats of_election, rusting the expense may deter Ballentine from contesting his seat, or & biased legis- latare may give him a stolen_seat in the senate, but a mistake is made, and the SEAT WILL BE CONTESTED, and if Ballentine has not the neces- sary means to prosecute his suit every honest man and _shamplon of fair play in western Nebraska will assist and unseat a usurper. It is a matter of principle, and the grist will be ground five; not a guilty man shall es- cape. The gauntlet is thrown down and it will be picked up. - The ball will open, and The Pioneer show up the principal dancers, who will pay for their music. Had Ballentine been defeated we would say nothing, but as he s elected we propose to assist in seating him. COUNTED OUT AT LAST, Furnag County Revublican. Norrr Pratre, November 12, 1880.—The officisl canvass of the 26th senatorial district gives Snyder 1807, Ballentine 1389, Crutcher 831.—[B: The same canvassing board al made retarns that Carrigan, the U. P. candidate for representative from the 46th district, was elected over Judge Dailey by & majority of five. An honest count of the returns of the va- ricus counties would have given Mr. Dailey a majority of 100 and Mr. Ballentine s majority of 93, thus giv- ing to the candidates from the Repub- lican valley the certificates of election. But by s fraudulent change in the re turns from Cheyenne county both the U. P. candidates were counted in and the will of the people defeated. The question ncw before us is, will the people submit to this fraud and be robbed of the right of free represen- tation in our state legislature? It is » grave question and one that shoald ‘e met and answered with all our e ergy and determination in the neg tive. Such returns should be cos tested to the bitter end. Can we ourselves a free people if we allow such acrime to go unpunished? We believe that justica could be ob- tained st the hand of our supreme court, aud to that court our people should take their appeal. Thera ould be no_giving wey toa wrony that Is sure to E‘e’l‘:fi in t’he downfall of all pelitical liberty. Of what ad- vantage 1sit to a man to have the right to cast his ballot and be pro- tected in so doing, if the object and designed effect of that ballot is to be swept away by a false and fraudulent count? It i3 worse than the “bull- dozing” plan of the south, because it is ‘more mean and cowardly. I would have twice the respect for the man who walks boldly up snd de- mands my purse than for bhim who steals it without my knowledge. - Dis- honesty has characterized the Platte valley from the beginning to the end of tha canvass, and_the tools of the U. P. monopoly have used every ‘moans to defeat the will of the peo- ple. Noither of the political parties are responsiblo for what has been done. 'Tis the power of money wiclded by the great corporation. We are opposed to monopoly rule in poli- tics, aud therofore we call upon our people to resist this encroachment upon their rights.
