THE CENSUS

The territorial newspapers and for.
eign papers circulating in Dakota are
now publishing census returns from
Dakota. No two papers seem to agree.
The Pierre Free Press gives the
population of Brule county as 6,s75
while the st. Paul Pioneer Press
makes it 1854. The latter paper also
publishes the population of Kimball
as 500, Chamberlain $50 and Puk-
wana 22l. Other papers are publish
ing the census of Chamberlain as
1850, Plankinton 1919 and Canton
l,072. Now anyone who knows any
thing about it at all knows that Can
ton has at least 500 more people than
either Plankinton or Chamberlain;
and that Kimball and Plankinton are
of an almost equal size. Last fall
Chamberlain polled Sc more votes
than Kimball. Giving the ratio of
population as 81 to every vote polled
this would give Chamberlain 29l
more population than Kimball, which
IS about the difference in the two
towns. We happen to know what
the censu of Kimball is and it is
needless to add that the figures 500
are ridiculous. The fact of the mat
ter is the published reports are a
mere matter Of guess work insofar
as many towns are concerned and
wide of the truth.

vertised by flaming posters took place
at the locality designated by the bills
on Friday evening last. Owing to
the fact of numerous other attractions
on the same evening many were un-
able to attend. 1t is perhaps as well
that such was the case for the seats
scere packed early in the eve
ming and standing room only was
plainly visible from the outside when
a reporter Of the GRAPHIC put in ap-
%pearance. He wassunable to ATTAIN
admittance, but with the enterprise
peculiar to his profession witnessed
the performance Though a hole in
the canvas, eugh it pricked his
conscience t Ne obliged to do so.
There were many attractions presen-
ted not down on the bills which
amply made up for the lack of any
thing advertised. The spoultry show,
for instance, was something new and
novel and attracted great attention.
The bare dance was also a surprise
to many and pronounced by all as
being one of the best ever seen. The
animals were all white but not of the
polar species-although it was no.
ticed they performed better when
poked with short poles in the hands
of the attendants. The exhibit of
monkeys was a long ways ahead Of
anything ever before seen, the man.

cured two entirely different from any
exhibited in any menagerie now trav-
cling. Perhaps the greatest attrac-
ton Of the evening was Sullivan, who
had been secured for this special oc-
casion at a fabulous price. w hen
the hero of many a hard fought bat
tie appeared in ring costume the de-
light of those present arose to the
widest pitch Of enthusiasm, even the
poultry could not be kept down. The
management had advertised the circus
to take place in four rings, but for
some reason two rings were all that
were used. They were amply suf-
t%icient, however, tor the occasion.
The bills said ''bear in mind our
asthetic circus is the largest that ever
struck the town" While it might
not possibly have been the largest
circus eve in Kimball, it certainly
was asthetic, everybody who saw it
says it was the most aesthetic circus
they eve saw.
