The Meeting recently held at Redtield,
to discuss the questions Of the capitol
removal, we believe voices the senti-
ment of nearly the whole of thepeople
az the state. The round-about-way
one has to travel to reach Pierre Ger
tainly is disgusting. Two nights and
part Of two days to get over about $50
miles. Where do you want it? Mitch
ell is our town.-Eureka Post.

ling the latter to make d retort which
has become historical) Ward or Worth
ington has been doing a religious stunt
of the Dowie kind, and has cut quite
a figure. He is a brilliant rascal, apeer-
less orator, and it is the general belief
that had he been honest he couldfhaye

The gold production of the Black
Hills for Oct, 1902, was 500, 456, this
being greater than for any previous
month since mining began in the REGION
in 1876. The increase is due to the
new mills in commission and to the
Increased capacities Of other mills.
The production of gold in the Black
Hills will reach o than a million
dollars a month before the closeof1903.
Several of the mills now being built
are to be enlarged. The Hidden For

running before the beginning Of 1903

Set back in business. i:nthe contrary,
c%oincident with The collapse Of the
stuck market, there We're numerous
evidences that manufacturing and
transporting interests have not sutfi-
cent facilities to meet demands: altho'
plants and equipments are now of
greater efficiency than at any previous
time. Distribution of merchandise
is fully maintained. preparations being
a1ade for a heavy holiday trade, and
frequent complaints of tardy deliveries
testify to the heavy consumption.
Prospects for continued activity are
bright because OF unprecedented har-
vests, prosperity in the agriculture Sc
ctions assuring a good demand for
other products. Threatened laborcon-
troyersies have been ayerted. in some
cases wages being advanced, while il
number of Increases were voluntary
given. Railway earnings continue to
advance, the first week Of November
showing a rise of 4.8 per cent. over
earnings in the same mouth four years

Huron, Redfield, and Mitchell have
agreed to make an honorable fight for
the state capital. They have pledged
themselves to stand by removal
regardless of what town shall re-
ceiye the honor. They realize that
10 remove the capital selfish interests
should be snbordinated to the public
good. Each town hopes TO succeed:
all know that but II town can win.
and the representatives of tllesetlree
cities,haye simply agreed to settle the
remoyalship by joining against Pierre.
If Mitchell is finally decided to be the
most available candidate, Huron and
Rcdfield will support her. If Redtie!!ds
shall be the choice of the remoyalis,s
Huron and Mitchei Support Redfield,
and IT Huron becomes the candidate
Redtield and Mitchell will suppori
Huron. The llnronite expects this
will be the final result, but if it shall
he otherwise. its influence and
support will then be thrown to it,
more fortunate neighbor to the soul Ii,
or to the north as the case may be.
