There is nothing like few facts and

u few minutes Tuesday morning to ascer-
tuin the amount Of money our business
men ON Broadway we're sending out
of town each year to fill tie Golfers of
insurance companies. Many were absent
at the time but we learned enough to
know that we are extremely partial to
these companies. In addition to this fact
We are waiting with abated breath to see
which block, or blocks cf business houses
it is that will first be wiped out with fire
entuiling an additional cost of one or two
artesian wellshpon the town. We are at
present absolutely without Gre protection,
hence the high rates OF lsurance which
are still to be raised Jan. 1, 1885, SO high
in fact that many will not insure at all
and hence when our fire does come--and
the history of every town justifies us in
saving il will co,ne-the uninsured prop
erty will be total loss. But here is
what some of our business men are pay
! ing out each year, and remember this is
only on main street and yet not all of

One Of things 10 be voted upon at
this fills election is tho location of the
temporary seat tf the capitnl OF South
Dakota. The votes OF Hand county will

aud Pierre. majority will probably be
for Pierre. From selfish point Of view
Pierre should be the town for our votes.
II the capital is at Pierre, it would be
but short time hen railroads would be
running directly to the Black Hills and
thereby opening up vast fuel country
that would come in direct competition
with the coal fields OF Indiana, Ilh-
nois and Iowa. On the other hand at
Huron the capital would be only half the
distance from us. II would be located
nearer the center Of population and more
easy OF access generally than Pierre.

over $1,000. 1t will take about $4,000 to
put down an artesion well. An artesion
well means au eternal, unlimited, never

II any doubt it let them visit Ipswich,
Aberdeen, Ashton. Groton, Yankton and
Altoona and see their artesian wells, and
see how enthusiastic the citizens are over
them.

Huron with its costly and and magnificent

considering the advisability of discarding
the expensive business and sinking an
