"Got Them FIXED"

r.. E. Grimshaw, Of Deadwood, Moody's
fine worker, came down from Hill City
Sunday, where he had been spending the
past week. During the day he held a
number of consultations with Jack Sim
mons, George Ayers and other Moody
republicans. Grimshaw while in the
city became a little too enthusiastic and
although q Lawrence county man, ex-
hibited q great deal OF knowledge OF the
affairs Of the republican party in this
county, and before he left the city made
several large bets that the legislative
ticket, Messrs. Clark, Gardner and
Baldwin, would be elected. In an argu-
ment with the gentlemen with whom he
bet he made use OF the following remark:
81 don't give DIN whether the alleys
and Rapid City 60 solidly against the
republican ticket, we will elect Clark
Gardner and Baldwin, we've got them
fixed in the Hills Asked if he wanted
to bet on the other republican candi-
dates, he remarked: II don't care a
cuss for the others, all we are working
for is the legislature, and we are going
to capture it, no matter what it costs.''''
This must be consoling to Messrs. Lamb
Carr. Wilson, Parsons and others. or
the republican county ticket. Grim.
shaw means business and by the first o.
the month will have 500 or as much
more to bet on the above proposition
that the republicans OF Pennington
county will elect their legislative ticket
The county ticket Will have to- rustic

there are various rumors about it..
Some say he did it to cover up his ma
know he was and Irishmar.. Others
laid it to other grounds more grave
Now desire to say to ID. B. McMurray
that we all know that he is an Irishman
and think none the less of him-fo for that,
but he ought to be ashamed OF going
back on his old fathers name. But il
this is not the reason for the change
what are the reasons?

Vote for Huron for Capital,
Accessibility.

.ScceSSID1.lty,
The question OF accessibility iS one OF
the mann springs OF the campaign. Pick
up any map you choose, whether it be
and Huron stands head and shoulders
above Pierre in all OF the attributes OF
convenience, accessibility and center OF
population. Look at any good map OF
South Dakota and you will see that
nearly all the land south OF the White
river west 0f the Missouri, and also a
large area north OF the Cheyenne is
marked s'permanent Indian reserva-
tion." This leaves between those rivers
west OF Pierre, but u comparatively
small belt of open reservation.
This stripe between the White and
Cheyenne has been declared by Pierre's
citizens and statesmen and by the
Free Press OF Pierre under tho date OF
July %, to he nothing but u 'sBleak
prospect" and their statements are
fully corroborated by the the evidences
OF one hundred editors, almost to a
man, who went across the reservation
IN carriages during the summer.
Now, ii Huron is the center of popllla-
ton today, it is her inevitable fate to
be SO for generations hence.
Ii we have the bulk OF population with
Huron as a center, with railway lines
radiating from her in all directions, is it
not common sense, is it not reasonable,
sensible and buslness-like to put the cap
ltal where 1T Will do the most good to
| the greatest number?
Pierre can never attain such an emil
nence. The Northwestern is the only
line reaching her. 1t had the choice oil
routes leading to her when it built in
there. 1t choose a roundabout way be-
cause it was the only way Other roads
to reach her limits must parallel that
line for nearly thirty miles and even
then its route viii be; tortuous, with
steep grades and with bridges and cul.
| verts.
The line surveyed from Forest City
seath and crossing the Missouri al
/ Yankton on it's intended way toward
\ Omaha, passes through Blunt, totally
ignoring Pierre. With these facts star
ing us in the lace, does it stand to reason
that Pierre can in any way look fol
better connections with the rest OF the
state?
/ Paper railroads to Aberdeen, paper
railroads to Bismark, paper railroads
to Rapid City, and paper railroads tt

lsound well in a capital fight, but ths

i Gated up to that point where they wan
something else than paper upon which
to base their calculations.

them every day. There are 10000
voters in the state who can start iron

Thecold interior and rough bare walls
OF a skating rink, was hardly the recep-
ton an United States senator should re-
ceive from an admirlng constituency
and surely not from his loyal political
followers. Alittle effort st adornment
and alittle warmer receptio would have
shown a greater faith in The future OF the
senator. The senator began by
stating that Rapid City must
have made rapid growth since he was
here last, as he never before met SO
large an audience here, (the gentleman
should have attended the womens meet
ing Sunday eve) Reminded his hearers

the senator says, "Did you expect me
to go there and simply drawmy salary"
Perhaps it was the bleakness OF his
surroundings that caused the weakness
Of his address. There was a lack OF
warmth in it, and absences Of eioquence
or humor, that forced one to the con-
clusion that the gentleman was speak
ing against time, that he had no faith in
his own future, but realized that the
honors for which he labored and traded
SO sharply one year ago had already
slipped beyond his grasp.
