rne WIDEN i. In.

ANNANASRA&S . ina
Sioux Falls Argus;-Nopublic question
in any state at any time has ever been CIV
en- a more thorough discussion than has
the capital location in South Dakota. in.
the newspapers, In the caucus, from the
stump, on the street, the question has
been tnrned over and looked at and
handled from every point Of view. Its
Importance is generally conceded. The
capital OF a state is its official, political
and in a measure its social headquarters.
That no mistake should be made in its
selection is most important. What is
needed is an accessible location, conven-
lent to the greatest number OF people.
What is needed is not a large commercial
center, but a town which has q prospect
for substantial growth. 1t should be in
the center Of q good agricultural region,
for South Dakota is on agricultural state.
and the country adjoining her capital
should properly represent the entire
state.
These conditions Huron fills. It is con-
coded, even by the opposition, that she is
the most accessible town in South Da-
kota. She is nearer the center Of pOpula-
tion than any other town. She will never
be a large commercial center. but every
prospect is for q good, thriving and comedy
town. The certainty of successful irriga-
tion will put her in a rich agricultural
region-as the capital should be.
In all candor, and with the utmost
kindness for a defeated candidate, the
Argus-Leader must say that Pierre can
not fill one of these conditions. She has
had months to show her advantages and
has signally failed topresent them. Her
evidence before the jury now is simply a
long list OF examinations and deniais.
Her campaign has been n of negatives
Her Supporters have rather opposed Huron
than favored Pierre. They have stirred
up a great cloud Of dust to hide the con-
spicuous disadvantages Of their candi-
date. They have been compelled by the
emergencies Of the case to make noise
pass for argument. They have fought q
you're another" campaign and they have
tried to cover up the weakness of their
candidate by the use Of gorgeous adjec-
tiyes and poetic figures Of speech.
In the less than three weeks that are
left the voters will do some thinking on
the subject. They will consider that the
capital is being located for the present
gensration-posterity can change it il
they like. They will certainly consider
that the capital is being located for the
present generation-posterity can change
it If they like. They will certainly con-
slider that Huron should be the place.
because 1t answers every need. and they
will back up that conclusion by giving q
decided and rousing majority for the
bright little city on the Jim.
The evidence is all in, and the court
will instruct the jury for Huron.

Pierre Is running a campaign Of high
pressure prejudice, wind and fraud.
She nurses and encourages prejudice
against Huron and her people, in direc-
tons entirely foreign to the capital ques-
ton, in order to distract the attention of
the voters from the points of Huron's
strength and her own weakness.
She distends and initiates her boomers
with gush and wind and they flock out
over the state under pay from her, pictur-
ing her as a future Kansas City or as an
Omaha, and foretelling the same old
string Of coming events" that she did
five years ago. not one Of which has yet
come to pass, and never will.
She represents that it is the salvation
of the state to vote her the capital, and
that the state will go to perdition II the
capital goes to Huron. She has filled the
state from end to end with the vilest Of
corruption in order to carry her work
last fall. and is repeating it again this
fall as far as her bankrupted exchequer
will permit, and the present generation
will not live to see our elections purified
OF the scrofula with which her methods
have infiltrated into the politics Of our
state-and it has all been done to salts
fy the inordinate greed and lore of gain
ola few individuals composing her syndi-
Gates. companies and townlot specula-
tors.
Pierre's method Of campaigning has
debauched the political conduct Of. affairs
to such an extent that were she to get
the capital now, the touch Of her local
ringsters and tricksters would be CON
taminated to the states affairs and un-
told damage and losses wovld inevitably
arise to the taxpayers thereby.
North Dakota was threatened with
eternal disgrace by the efforts Of the
Louisiana Lottery ringsters, and only by
superhuman efforts was the octopus
killed and Its tentacles severed, which It
had thrown around that states most
promising outlook.
The Pierre gang and their outside allies
are not one whit better, and if possible
the danger to South Dakota is fully
as great through their inscriptions
ness as was that which so recently
hung like a pail over the future Of or
Northern sister.
Voters of South Dakota, be men. Do
not stand upon the order Of your adoption
Of stern rebuke to the boomers from
Pierre who would seduce you into support
ing her for capital to the end that they
may reap the harvest while you reap the
whirlwind.

Chamberlain Fellows at Their
OLD Tricks


A number Of BOhemians in town We'd
nesday stated that the candidates in the
west3end Of the county were circulating
the statement through certain town
ships down their way that Kimball wa
opposed to artesian wells Throughout the
county and explaining the alleged fact
by the assertion that Kimball wanted no
rivals to its famous well. A more damn
able lie probably could not be manufac-
tured for political gain. The object, of
course, Is to prejudice voters against all
candidates in the eastern part Of the
county. The city Of Kimball has done
more work to secure a general system Of
artesian wells for Brule county than all
other parts Of the county combined, and
the GRAPHIC was the first in the state to
agitate the matter. and no dozen papers
in the state have given the space to the
matter that Il has. ANY candidate circu-
lat.ng 9 report to the contrary will think
his name is Dennis II run down in the
dirty work.

Don's be .

Aberdeen News:-The people, If left to
themselves, would naturally choose
Huron for the state capital. This is
proven by what they have done in the
past. 1t is a pity that they should be
warped from their natural inclinations
by selfish schemes Of speculations for
purely private gain. Any kind Of q
scheme can make some show by a lavish
use of money. No matter how unreason-
able it is, If there sany money in it. con-
siderable stir will be made. But after
all, Is 1t not better to permit the peoplet to
gather at Huron and make it the capital
than to try under various pretexts and
so-called arguments to seduce them
against their own best interests to 70 to
such an out of the way place. The sell
fshness which will perpetuate such a
wrong ought not tosucceed and certainly
will not,

Scotland Citizen:-An audience that
completely Allied the hall turned out to
hear Judge Bartlett Trip speak on the
tarih question Tuesday evening. Tho
hall had been beautifully decorated for
the occasion and the large, attentive and
Intelligent audience was a compliment
that the Judge deeply appreciated. At 8
o'clock General Campbell called the meet
ing to order and introduced the speaker.
And for an hour and q half, the time Of
his speech, the audience listened with the
closest attention to his powerful and elo-
quent address.

Harrison Mad at Rettigrew.
1t Is claimed now, says the Minneap-
oils Journal, that Senator Frank Petit
grew Is In disfayor at the white house.
A Washington dispatch to . morning pa
per states that President Harrison is real
mad at the South Dakota senator because
of his expose Of certain western sena-
tors who entered into q combine to vote
against the conference report on the tar
if bill if binder twine was not put on
the free list. The president Is reported
to have told q certain eastern senator
yesterday that Senator Pettigrew had
overstepped the bounds of senatorial
courtesy in that matter In recent inter
views with the journal and the president
claimed his u%tterances would have a bad
political effect.
Senator Pettigrew is not grleving very
much to-day because of the reported
"roast" by the president. He was found
by the Journal in room 81 in the Mer-
chants hotel, st. Paul. Asked If he had
read The Washington dispatch, he re-
piled:
Eyes, I've read It. I want to say just
this much about 1t. Ihave never accused
any Of these senators Of being liars. l
never mentioned q name in referring to
the breaking up Of the combination. The
president is probably warm, If he said
what is reported, over the statement in an
eastern paper that I referred to Senator
Ingalls,. Over this matter Ihaye no con-
troversy with any one. Tho combine
was made and broken. After they Ind
invited me to come into it l considered
1t no more than fair that 1 should have
been consulted before it was broken.
It would have made no difference to me
80 far IS my vote is concerned. 1 should
have voted against the bill anyhow.
Is there any dissatisfaction over the
tariff bill in your state?"
"There is. 1t is hard just at the pres
ent time to tell how much Of a figure this
dissatisfaction will cut. A good MANY
people in South Dakota feel as I do over
this tariff bill. Naturally, 1 favor the
protection Of American industries, but
what I object to is the raising Of the duty
on so many necessaries of life that were
heretofore sufficiently protected. The
duty on u great many articles should
have been reduced instead of being raised,
as they were in this bill"

Sioux City Journal:-In his late tribute
at Philadelphia to Walt Whitman, Robert
G. Ingersoll uttered An exquisite passage
on the hope Of immortality, and one
which indicates that however short he
may fall Of the Christians faith his star
Of hope shines undimmed. Mr.. Ingersoll
quoted a line from Whitman in which
death Is spoken Of as disappearance in the
darkness, and said:
And is this all? Will the forthgoer be
lost, and forever? Is death the endS
Over the grave bends Love sObbinp. and
by her side stands Hope and whispers:
We shall meet again. Before ali life
is death. and after all death is life. The

flush, that t~estifes of autumn's death, is

Alexandria Journal:-Pierre's city debt
is $4,000 and her population at q
strained figure Is not more than
1900. Do the people Of this state
want to vote the capital Of the state to a
city controlled by lot of real estate spec
ulstors and help save them from bank
ruptcyP We do not believe they will.
The future Of the state depends on the
financial standing OF her cities and the
voters cannot afford to place the state In
such . financial light. Huron Is the
center Of all large gatherings and she be-
ing chosen o. the convention city proves
conclusively that she is the center Of
population and accessibility. Huron Is
abundsntly able to take care of the legis-
lsture now. but when she Is assured Of
the permanent capital she will erect a suit

officers. Voters. do not be tempted by
