It cites his rise under an inexperienced manager at the Deadwood Pioneer and contrasts it with changes at the Black Hills Democrat and upcoming Black Hills Union. Local officials and railroad figures, including J B Buchanan, visit Sturgis and Meade County boards discuss county bond settlements and joint sessions.
