..There,s Millions in it, Millions,"

Col. Sellers King in company with
several other equally as visionary men
in Chamberlain are talking of starting
a new town about half way between
Pukwana and Kimball. On Satur-
day last, King, Stearns. Colborne and
Walker came up from Chamberlain
to look over several prospective sights.
King says nothing can prevent Kim
ball from always being a good town,
but he thinks there is room enough
for more towns in the county. Yes,
there is more room than anything
else, and he will learn in time that it
requires something besides room and
wind to make a town. He does not
seem to profit by his experience in
Chamberlain. 1t is to be regretted
that Chamberlain is so dead and also
so unfortunately located that she can
never be otherwise, and it Is further
to be deplered that false pride pre-
vents her business men from remov-
ing up to Kimball where they would
be certain of prospecting, instead of
attempting to build up another town
as ear Kimball as possible "a little
one for a cent, you know. How
much better it would be for Bro. King
aud the other sick one if they would
bury their false pride and come right
in with us. We are nothing if not
! forgivlng. However, if they won't
come we will do the next best thing,
sell them goods cLeaperthan they can
buy in Chicago. Kimball already
does a large wholesale business with
surrounding towns and our mer-
chants will make special prices to the
merchants in the new town (D if it
ever has more than one. The more
we think of it the we hope Col.
Sellers King will make his new
scheme work, forpossibly in the course
of time the town (D might make
pleasant homes for our business men
if the street car lines ever extend
from Kimball that. far. and perhaps
we would take the suburb into the
city of Kimball and call it the ls 10
or Goth ward, whatever it happens to
be. Anyway, you'll be neighborly
wont you, Bro. King, and come up
and stay to tea often, you will now,
wont you Johnny?

The County Election

The board Of county commissioners
meet at Chamberlain on Saturday mex.
at which time the official vote of the
county will be declared We shall
publish a supplement next week con-
tanning the complete vote of the coun-
ty. AT the present time we can safe
ly state the candidates are elected as
published in the GRAPHIC last week
There seems to be a little dispute be-
tween Gregory and Kilfeather for
Register of Deeds. Mr.. Kilfeather
claims a majority of 90 which NJ.
Gregory does not concede, but we
think the official returns will show the
former has a small majority.

The above is "made from whole
CLOTH" "Old man Austin" was not
at the polls and had nothing to do
with the opening or closing of them.
The editor of the GRAPHIC was there
during the last hour they were open
and KNOWS nothing was said about
keeping them open longer than five
o'clock. No one said they could keep
them open until ten o'clock if they
wanted to: no "counsel prevailed;'
"Old man Al,stin' did not succumb,
because he was not present, and the
Register has merely added another
lie to its long list.

or the prairie, that is soon to have a
city on each side OF her, where there
is plenty of water, could not be salts

best friend, and slaughtering Stuart

who tried SO hard too hard to favor
her, Let Kimball read her records
of lo,ality both to men and to party,
8 vote for r. j. Andrews, the regular
republican nominee.-Register.
That 8 votes for R.. J. Andrews is
what sticks in Kings crop. Let us
see how Chamberlain voted; how
"loyal' she was. Mark Ward, the
regular nominee of the Republican
ticket, received SO votes only, TH1s IN
THE Each OF THE FACT TIA HE HAD
NO OPPOSITION IN THE COUNTY, but
Tucker of Chas Mix county, on the
Democratic ticket, received 226 votes
only four less than Ziebach and 80
more than Wilson, the head of the
ticket. Had Duncan been against
Ward it would not have been 40 bad,
but the mere fact that Ward lived In
Kimball was sufficient excuse to
scratch him for a man in another
county whom not one man in fifty
in Chamberlain knows. There's 10y
atty for you. On the other hand,
Barnes, a Republican, secured 26s
votes and Ryan a democrat only 50.
There's some more "loyalty" for you.
Again Lafabre received 239 votes and
his opponent Stuart the Soldier can
didate," 81 votes only. Oh, Loyalty
thy name is Chamberlain. All that
ails IL friend King is: he is mad
because he got scooped; mad clear
through. Mad because Kimball did
not split On jenkins and Nugen and
let his brother-in-law Andrews, re.
main in. Mad lecause his competi,
tor Lafabre will hold a county
Office. Mad because Gregory
was not elected and mad because
Kllfeather is, and worst of all he il
the maddest because Cleveland i,
elected and his post Office is gone up
Were it not for some one saving thai
the editor of the GRAPHIC meant it
he would quote the words of poo,
Richard when he said, "poor, id
distracted man, farewell.

nor any other man of Chamberlain ever gave me
any announcement to run in any shape. But l
do say truthfully to the GRAPHIC and the voters
of Brule county the reason that I aimed and did
keep my name in the field as best 1 could was
the unfair means resorted to by the Brule Index
and some other schemers to force me from the
field. Further, after the official vote of the coun-

Not to His Credit,

During the engagement of the Ell
roy company in Kimball Mr.. Elroy
in his customary announcement each
night before the curtain, said on one
evening that the Klmball audiences
were the most intelligent of any the
company had had the pleasure of
playing before. A remark that GER
tainly was not t~iattering to Plankin-
ton and Mitchell. 1t was said for
effect of course and we would not
now notice it had not Mr.. Elroy In
their opening night in Chamberlain
sought to gain favor in Chamberlain
at the expense Of Kimball. We are
informed that MIR. Elroy publicly
announced in Chamberlain that the
Kimball people tried to prevail upon
the company not to visit Chamber
lain and told him that it was a poor
town etc. etc. etc. 1t is true Mr.. E.
{. Smith, manager Of the opera house
did try one day, when the company
were down to Plankinton, to get a
certain number of season tickets guar
anteed for another week. And it may
also be true that he personally de-
sired to keep the company away from
Chamberlain. However, when Mr.
Efroy returned from Plankinton and
it was learned that should the COM
pany remain here n more week they
would be obliged to cancel their
Chamberlain contract the project was
abandoned by MIR. Smith at once.
One person does not constitute the
people of Kimball any more than the
three tailors of London did the peo-
pie of England. 1t would be extrem
ly silly for Kimball to are whether
Chamberlain has one theatre a week
or one a year. The writer of this
volunteered the information to MIR
Elroy hat he would find Chamber
lain a mighty good show town, bet,
ter than Kimball if anything, and as
pleasant and nice a lot of people as
he ever met. The truth of which
Mr. Elroy will affirm. We cannot
help bnt think therefore that he ex
hibited very poor taste. He may
want to visit Kimball again some
time. He should remember that.
