We heard q travelling man say the
the other day that he was led to be-
lieve from various talks with differ
ent conductors on the road that the
boom in South Dakota was pretty
evenly divided between Kimball and
Plankinton.
Chamberlain has an Opera House
with two store rooms under 1t, both
vacant. Kimball will have one com-
pleted by June next, with three store
rooms under it and everyone of them
is already engaged. That's the diff
ference between business and blow. |
A new style of skate known as the
"Peeler' skate is growing quite pop
ular. It has one roller seventeen
inches in height White Lake Times.
Probably SO named because it will
more effectually "peel" the skin off
the end of ones spinal column.

1t is stated that the net earnings of
the C. M. & St Paul road last year
were upwards of 100000. All
but the 100000 was earned between
Mitchell and Kimball and under
these circumstances we think the
management should give VI a regular
passenger unincumbered by freight
| cars.
We call our readers attention this
week to the new advertisement of
Kicker and Lindley who are sue
cessors to the Iowa Lumber Co. The
new firm is composed of two live
wide awake menssand we can assure
the readers of the GRAPHIC they will
receive square and honorable treat
ment at their hands.
We noted last week that Mr.. Cook,
of the harness firm of Hardy + Cook,
had gone to Chicago to purchase their
spring stock of goods. We have
since learned that it was "dry goods"
he went after and he Will return with
them this week. 1t is needless to add
they will be worn by 3 young lady.
Call around and get your cigars, boys.
We are in receipt of : 100 for q
years subscription 10 the GRAPHIC
from Mr. Samuel Bailey of Reading
Vermont, an old gentleman ninety
years of age who has been a constant
reader of the GRAPHIC for some time.
He has become SO interested in Da-
kota that he has written to his son-in-
law, T. Pattee, to buy him q farm
and will come out and show the boys
show we used to raise crops when We
were young"
F. G. Whites Dramatic Company
opened a weeks engagement here on
Monday night with Col. Sellers, fol
lowed by Alvin Joslin on Tuesday
night and Rip Van Wrinkle on We'd
nesday night. Whites rendition Of
Col. Sellers is fine and as much may
be said of his Alvin Joslln. We
think however he attempts too much
in "Trip" and would do well to omit
it, especially with his support, which,
aside from his leading lady, Is very
amateur.
Chamberlain has two hetels, one
opera house, and n mill that cost
more money, and are worth more
than all the buildings in the little
town of Kimball put together
Chamberlain Register.
Well, granting that the above il
true, which it comes far from heing,
what do all your 'big" b'ildings
amount TO further than to serxe as
monuments to the folly exhibited by
those who have sunk their money in
them from va:n Reservation hopes.
As well might they have built them
on the Great Sahara Desert ip kspes
that it might some day be irrigated.
The smallest cigar stand in kamball
does more business than all Your &C
called big concerns combined.
