Northwestern Review: The CAPT.
tai contest in South Dakota is de.
manding more attention than any
other one question in the state. The
fight has narrowed down to two
contestants, Pierre and Huron, with
the odds in favor of Pierre. The
opening ofthe reservation has nat.
urally increased Pierre's chances.
The bulk Of the natural wealth OF
the prosperous state lies west of the
Missouri river. The great tin mines,
the gold, the coal and other mineral
that exist in abundance in this new
empire are destined to be the most
important factor in South Dakota's
wealth, and make her one of the
wealthiest states in the northwest,
and with the capital permanently
located ut Pierre, which is the exact
center of the state, railroads will be
built across the great domain center.
ing at Pierre, affording direct COM
munication for the two divisions OF
the state. The eastern half wants
the mineral product Of the west,
while the extreme west wants the
agricultural product of the eastern
half. Coal at the present time in
eastern South Dakota, costs from Sc
to So per ton, while equally as good
a quality Of coal could be furnished
from the mines of the state for SO
if proper railroad transportation
were afforded. The capital at Pierre
will bring this, but no general good
can result with it at Huron. There
seems to be no question but the ma.
iority Of voters will look to the gen
eral welfare Of the great state OF
South Dakota, and locate their cap.

That Boycott.

One evidence Of the weakness of
the third party is that they work
through the Farmers Alliance to
boycott newspapers of different po-
litical faith from themselves. No
political newspaper has a right to
force itself or its views on those who
do not wish them. 1t is also the
right and privilege of each individ-
ual to decide for himself what pa
pers he will read, and it is evidence
of inherent weakness and folly for
any political body to say that its in
dividual members shall not exercise
this right.-Sringtdd Times.

THE CREAMERy.-Mr. Ace Web
ster, proprietor of the Elk Point
Creamery, was here last week, and
instead of closing the creamery, as
anticipated on the first ofthe month.
he has concluded to run it right
along, as long as cream sufficient
can be obtained. An addition to
the building 1890 is being put on
to be used for the egg department,
and the creamery is otherwise being
improved. Mr.. o. IL. Williams has
had charge Of the management of
the creamery since Mr.. Tower left,
and he is proving to be an excel
lent man for the position. With
the new additions and improve
ments the business of the institu-
ton will be greatly enlarged and
facilitated. The value Of an enter
prise like this to a city can hardly
be over estimated and the more we
have the better for our thriving city.
