The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1889-09-27

A gentleman from Yankton who
travels extensively in South Dakota
told Mitchell man on the train from
Lesterville Friday that all along
between Jefferson and here decidedly
strong sentiment prevails in favor Of
Mitchell for the capital.
A party who came up from Bon
Homme county last evening, and who
seems to understand the capital situa-
tion, states that Mitchell will get an
overwhelming vote in that county. In
the Bohemian, German and Polish set
Elements the people are solid for Mitch
ell, and q gentleman visiting south
west of LesterYille informed reporter
that what they want now is lots of
literature, badges, ETC., to get their
neighboring brethren in Yankton
county to fall into line also.

Lecturer Chase of the alliance is out
in a circular favoing Watertown for
the capital. Mr.. Chase, by the way, is
a resident of Watertown, which fact
must be taken into account by the
farmers of Southern Dakota who are
asked to deliberately throw away the
certainty of increasing the value Of
their land by voting tor any other town
than Mitchell. Self-interest governs
individual action, and the interest a
farmer may haye i'll increasing his
share i'll the property of the alliance is
small compared with his interest in
increasing the value of his own farm.

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: Mitchell
agrees to withdraw from She capital
race If Chamberlain can show that the
Milwaukee road is endorsing or aiding
her candidacy. Here is chance for
Chamberlain to make stake--if she
can get the proof.
And Mitchell means 1t. too. But
Chamberlain, whose campaign is one OF
bluff aud misrepresentation, dare not

Judge Moody on Irrigation.

Judge G. g. Moody was here yester-
day enroute for his home in Deadwood.
lie gave the REPUBLICAN some inter-
estlng points on one of his fayorite
! themes-irrigation, The senate COM
mittee on irrigation, Judge Moody
thinks, will necessarily result in good.
This would be true if nothing more
came of it than the popular enlighten-
ment on the subject that would surely
come through the committees report.
But this would not be the only or
principal benefit resulting. Govern
mental aid would be secured if the
states particularly interested made an
earnest and united effort for it.
When asked as to his opinion of the
Importance of irrigation to South Da-
kota he responded that he consideredit
Of the very greatest Importance. With
irrigation the state would he one Ct
the most productive agricultural Sec
tions in the world. More than that
the artesian wells which furnished the
water Tor irrigation would furnish also
motor power for factories in which
much of the raw material from South
Dakota farms could be worked into
finished products. These factories too
would give home market, through
their large number of employees, to
those farm products that could not be
changed into finished articles.
AS to the probable area that one well
could irrlgate, Judge Moody said he
had little doubt but that such we'll
as Col. M. M. Prices at Letcher, which
has flow Of 200 gallons per minute
would successfully irrigate if the wat
er were entirely utilized 5000 acres.
The possibilities for material growth
in South Dakota are practically un-
bounded if her people wisely develop
the natural facilities afforded for sue
cessful irrigation.

The year 80 is surely panning out
much after the iondest expectations Of
the mining mer. From all the New
Mexico mining camps come reports Of
new strikes, and stirring times promised
for the fall and winter. The superior
climatic advantages Of this territory must
always count as an important factor in
all her business enterprises, but in none
is this more apparent than in the mining
industry. In this respect New Mexico
stands pre-eminently alone. 1t can be
said OF this territory only that extremes
Of temperature at no time affect the work
in the mines. Possibly this may be
counted as one OF the reasons that our
great sister commonwealth on the north
is just a bit enyious OF New Mexico at
times v hen it comes TO considering this
special line OF industry.

IMPORTANT.

Itturns out that the call tor the
recent republican convention in Bot
tineau county was not in accord with
that which was issued to the voters OF
Ward, McHenry and Pierce counties.
Non-partisan delegates have been
elected to The district convention to
be held ut Towner next Saturday.
Whether this action Of the republi-
cans in this county was through mis-.
information or in pursuance Of some
double.dyvd scheme, we do not
know. 1t s~uf;ces to know and to
say that outside Of Bottineau county,
it has been, as it should be, the de-
sire to have a convention that should
select delegates who should be non
partisan and represent the intslli.
gence and worth Of the entire district.
As the democrats in the three coun-
ties named have decided to fuse with
the republicans ill this business ~e
advise the convention called by the
democratic committee of Bottineau
county for tomorrow to select and
send four delegates to the convention
At Towner who with four from tho
delegates chosen at the late republi.
can convention, sl.all act and vote in
the selection Of The best three men in
the Fourth district to represent it in
the constitutional convention to be
held at Bismarck. We consider this
the most meritoricus plan and in har-
Mony with the sentiment indicated
By US two weeks ago; to throw politics
overheard for once and let the people
have it to say that in the formation
OF n constitution Of 4 great state, pol
ities per Sc must take a back seat and
good judgment, wisdom, federation
and a general desire for the common
veal should be the spirit animating
the coming state makers.
We in like manner appeal to the
delegates to assemble at Towner next
Saturday to recognize this liberal
spirit, equslize this double headed
delegation from Bottineau county,
cast aside all partisan prejudice, rise
to the dignity of the emergency and
show by your acts that in the business
before you a high regard for the
homer Of our district will enable its
representatives at Bismarck to take
IN enviable part in the deliberations
Of the first constitutional convention
Of North Dakota.

SCHOLASTIC.

The first biennial report Of the
Territorial Board Of Education OF
Dakota has been sent US, for which
We give our thanks. 1t is valuable
for reference, containing many things
interesting as we'll as instructive. We
are somewhat panied to note, how.
ever, that in bis report to the terri
torial superintendent Of public in
struction, u county superintendent
has gone out Of his way, and, as We
consider, unnecessarily, to find fault.
Psrvading his report, We regret to
say, is a spirit or tone of sxacerbese-
sncs, (the county superintendent will
of course excuse the big word-we
disclsim any p.dantry) that might
have been appropriate in an editorial
Of the Free Lance on the doubls-dyed
schemer" and "the notorious gang" Of
renegade politicians, but which in an
official report affecting tho schools,
their teachers, officers and system
generally, might better have been un-
said and unwritten. The young
county superintendent has much to
learn and among other things, that as
Xenophon wrote:
The sweetest Of all sounds is praise
and if he cannot honestly express it,
that then as Terence said:
.Silsnee 10 sufficient praise"

In the Free Lance of last week is
