partial. What the Argus-Leader now
wants is for kirby's newspaper to point
out one material statement in the re-
port Of the trial which is not corrobor-
ated by the record. In its advance
report the Argus-Leader understood
and stated that Inspector Fosnes Sc
cured two packages of Kirby. That
statement was corrected in the report
of the trial. He secured but one pack
age from Kirby. Aside from this dis
crepancy, will Kirby's organ point out
one single material error or missta,e-
ment even in the advance report OF the
trial printed by the Argus Leader
when Kirby was indicted? Come now.
Talk is cheap, but this matter happens
to be one of record.

MADE A GREAT SUCCESS.
The Story of Two Dawson County Farm
ers Who Have Made Their Way.

The Story of Two Dawson County Farm
ers Who Have Made Their Way.
The Mitchell correspondent writes
to the Argus-Leader as follows con-
earning the success of two Dawson
county farmers:
Eighteen years ago this last spring
there came from DeKalb county, ILL.,,
to South Dakota, a young farmer aged
y years, with plug team, wagon, har-
ness and one breaking plow and a stir
ring plow, and when he crossed the
Big Sioux into South Dakota he had
just $25 in his pocket: Sl4 was used as
fees in the United States land Office and
S5 expenses. He had the true Dakota
grit and now see how he is situated,
starting with nothing but industry,
knowledge OF his calling and a deter
mination to carve out for himself a
home. He today has one-half section
OF land on which he has bestowed his
efforts and labor: twenty acres of fine
timber from twenty to fifty feet high
and in fine condition: a good fair-sized
house, barn 35 by 40; an abundance of
stock sheds, a hog house and yard :
granary, corn cribs, machinery sheds
and in short all the buildings necessary
to we'll equipped farm: Is good horses,

Horn cattle, about so hogs, farm ma

of water, an artificial lake of about one
acre in extent, stocked with fish. To
day, with what other property he has,
would amount to between 1000 and
S12, ,000-not very bad country in his
opinion. The home may be found in
the half of section in township 1O3
n, range 81 W, fifteen miles west and
north of Mitchell.
Another man living six or eight
miles southeast of Mitchell came to
Dakota in 1879 with practically nothing
but a team and outfit for breaking.
Today his house and buildings cannot
be surpassed for utility, comfort or
style in the country, costing him in

thinks that he has no kick coming on

Why is it that one nan is old and
decrepid at As and another hale and

he takes of himself. Often a mans
body gets out of repair-the trouble
grows until it lays him out in bed.

MITCHELL'S TEAM AT MADISON

Clearly Entitled TO the Championship
Banner--Has Been Won Three Times.
In mentioning the championship
hook and ladder contest at the fire
mems tournament the Madison Leader
makes the following kind remarks con-
corning the Mitchell team: "Another
exciting contest and pretty work was
by three of the teams-Mitchell, Ver-
million and Madison-in the champion
ship hook and ladder contest. The
Mitchell men we're in finest form, thor
ough drilled, and the prestige oftwo an
nual victories to nerve them on They
made clean run, preserved their lad
derman by giving him a ride, and he
mounted the ladder like a bird, All
WAS precision and good calculation.
Madison and Vermillion both run we'll,
but the former ioored a couple of men
and bad to drag one OF them quite a
distance. The ladder work of neither
was precise in movement, and here
they lost time. The two teams tied on
33 AS, over 3 seconds longer than
Mitchell. The latter department is
clearly entitled to retain as its own the
magnificent championship banner it
has won three years in succession"

DEPARTURE OF THE ADvENTIsTs.
The Adventist Camp Meeting Came to an
End Sunday Evening.

The Adventist Camp Meeting Came to an
End Sunday Evening.
Sunday evening the Adventist camp
meeting which has been in progress in
Mitchell for the past two weeks came
to close with meetings held in the
various tents: the German, Scaudina-
vian and English and the services took
on something of a farewell nature. In
the afternoon services were held at the
Firesteel and twenty-five were immers-
ed, making total of forty-two for the
entire session.
Early Monday morning the conference
committee was in session winding up
the details of the session and laying
out plans for the future operations Of
the society. 1t is their intention to
equip several parties with tents and
preachers and establish them temper
arily at Huron and Hartford, with a
third point to be decided upon, moving
from place to place and engaging in
missionary work.
There we're 754 members of the con-
ference in attendance upon the meet
ing and from the expressions heard
among the members it was evidently a
great pleasure for them to be together.
1t is only once year that the Advent
lists meet in conference and as they are
distributed in various parts of the two
states they lack the opportunity for
holding meetings for study. The
preachers and the mem bers stated that
they were greatly pleased with the
treatment they had received at the
hands OF Mitchell people, who seemed
to be very considerate of their guests
who were temporarily in their midst.
At the closing meeting Sunday evening
resolution was passed by rising
vote thanking the city council, Mitch
ell citizens and the Milwaukee railroad
for courtesies extended.
Early Monday morning the laborers
commenced to take down the $50 tents
which sheltered the people and they
wers stored away in the brick building
on Main street until they are required
next year. In conversation with Elder
Nelson he stated that the next camp
meeting had not been located, but they
would very likely return to Mitchell
for the next years conference.

Argus The Argus Leader
has little comment to make upon the
Kirby case. The fact is there is very
little to say. Kirby was indicted for a
serious crime, be was tried, convicted
and sentenced. He has claimed tech
nical errors in the trial and the su-
preme court of the United States will
pass on the question. The Argus.Lead
or has however this to say: Kirby S
newspaper has several times referred
to the false reports of the trial given
in the ArgusLesder. Kirby himself
has referred to the ''scurrulous'' arti-
cles which have been printed against
him in certain newspapers" The
Argus-Leader was the only newspaper
which gave any report of the evidence
submitted 1t had reporter in con-

the trial admitted that the Argus. Lead
