TOUCHES ON GOOD POINTS

20 Post Includes Good Men
ton for Mitchell.

Will L. Larkin, a writer for the
Chicago Evening Post, devotes a page
of that paper in a recent issue to
South Dakota and a few of the prom
lnent cities, in which Mitchell re-
ceives good treatment at the hands of
the writer. Referring to Mitchell's
capital prospects Mr.. Larkin has the
following:
Mitchell, the county seat Of Davis
on county, is not only the most beau
tiful and cleanest little city in the
state, but at present. is the most
talked about town in the west. The
reason for Mitchell's popularity is
very simple: 1T is going to be the
permanent capital OF this fast-devel-
oping new state.
Nothing can stop Mitchell's m
bitlons for capital honors except an
epidemic among the voters within a
radius OF Seventy-tive miles of the
City. Figure it out yourself.
Draw a circle on the map of South
Dakota within a radius OF seventy
five miles of Mithell and according to
the last election returns you will find
that Al per cent Of the voting popu-
lation of the state reside within this

ALL FOR THE LIBRARY
Big Bazaar Will Doubtless Bring in
Good Money for the Object
1t Has Been Planned.

The Womans' Library Association
is quite active in raising money for
the benefit Of the Carnegie library.
1t is to go for books, and the ladies'
realize that the library will be of lit
tie value to the public with but a
small selection of books. The public
is interested in seeing the shelves
filled with good volumes, for the pub
lie expects to have free rein at them
when they are once put up. Then the
public should..be liberal in the pat
ronage OF the bazaar which the assO-
citation is arranging to take place
Thursday and Friday afternoons
and evenings of this week. That
there may be plenty of roc for all
the people to come the ladies have
secured the corn palace in which to
hold the bazaar, and booths will be-
erected and made attractive by APP
propIiate decorations Donors have
been very liberal with articles that
are to be placed on sale during The
two days, and they will be sold at
prices which will certainly be an in
ducement for people to buy. What
is purchased embraces many articles
of necessity to the average house,
keeper. and for that reason the nom
ey will not be expended unwisely.
There will be no charge to attend
the Bazaar during the day, but in the
evenings an admission Of ten cents
will be the rule, as a good concert
program will be given. There ought
to be two very successful DAYS for
the Woman's Library Association
and they hope to clear a good sum
Of money for the book fund.

WHEAT HARVEST BEGUN
A Number of Farmers in the County
Began Cutting Their Wheat
Monday Morning.

In many parts of the county Mon
day the farmer commenced to cut his
wheat and by Wednesday practically
every field in the county will be ira
versed by the binder. The wheat crop
is in the finest possible condition and
there ought is no doubling but what
it will be a bumper crop. The season
all through from the day wheat was
sowed until the harvest begun there
has hardly been a day that was I'M
favorable for the crop. in fact, the
season has been as near an ideal n
as could be wished. The rains have
come in season and in plenteous guam
titles there has been no hot weather
to injure the grain, and now the
farmers will reap the benefit of their
hard work during the year. An ex-
pert gives it as his opinion that this
country will yield an average of 20
bushels per acre. il not more. There
are plenty of pieces of wheat which
will go over 80 bushels.
- ii IuOuSAC UIldL pUSSIDly. Tie
rain and wind of Saturday night
might do some damage to the wheat
in lodging it. but the reports received
today were to the effect that wheat
did not suffer a particle. The
amount of rainfall in the city was
LOB inches. The moisture was a
grand thing for corn, which presents
a splendid crop prospect at this
time. Ears have commenced to form
and there is every reason to believe
that it will be out of the way of all
dangerous elements within a month
or six weeks.
Many people drove over portions Of
the county Sunday and they all tell
the same story Of the wonderful
wheat crop that will be harvested,
and of the magnificent corr crop in
sight. Dawson county will rank
among the banner counties this year
for good crops, and she will push
some or those which have held the
banner in years past.
Within another week the wheat
will have been harvested and a great
many farmers will rest easier as they
look into their fields and see them
J crowded with the shocks Of the
grain.

No other star of equal radiance is

Taking Alpha Cyngi as your cue
trace out "The Swan" a constella-
ton shaped something like a cross,
the points and center formed of five
large stars, scattered between which
are very small stars. The lowest
star of the cross is called Beta Gym

Cyngi, south Of Alpha Cyngi.
Do not expect to see anything with
a long tail. The tail is there, two of
them, many miles long, but not yet
visible to the naked eye.
The comet looks like a filmy star
with a haze around it. 1t is not as
brilliant by many times as Alpha
Cyngi, but corresponds rather to a
star of the third or fourth magni-
tude.

South Dakota Commission Will Erect
a Corn Palace Building at
st. Louis Exposition.

Friday morning Judge Boucher,
Of Eureka, w. B. Saunders, of Mil
bank, and T.R. Farmer. of Madison,
arrived in the city from Huron,
where they had been attending a
meeting Of the South Dakota COM
mission which has charge of the
erection of a state building at the St.
Louis exposition, for which the re-
cent state legislature made an appro-
priation Of 1886, 900. Mr.. Russell, an
other member Of the commission, was
unable TO come, to Mitchell and re-
turned to Deadwood.
The commission organized by the
election of the following officers:
Presidents. W. Russell.
Vice PRESIDENT. L. Boucher.
Secretary-T. r. Farmer.
TIeasurer-W. B. Saunders.
Mr.. Boucher, in speaking for the
commission, stated that it had been
agreed upon that a corn palace would
be the nature Of the building erected
at st. Louis, as it more fully repre-
senred the interests Of the state than
anything that could be put up.
While in the city the gentlemen in
spected the corn palace building
thoroughly and got some facts and
figures relative to it's construction
and the expense of the work. The
commission is limited to the expend-
lture Of 81, 1000 for the erection Of the
building. Mr.. boucher said that if
the commission was able to erect as
good a building as Mitchell has Tor
its III palace the members would
be well satisfied with their work.
Mr.. Boucher thought that Mitchell
would get a good deal Of free adver-
tising from the corn palace. as in
South Dakota it was dlstinctively
a Mitchell idea. Several members OF
the corn palace committee were in
company with the visitors in showing
them owe the corn palace and sup
piled them with much information
which they will find valuable when
they come to the construction of the
state building.
Mr.. Boucher said that they would
secure the services of A.. Robe, the
gentleman who has decorated Mitch.
CLIPS corn palaces in past years with
such splendid success.
The gentlemen left for their homes
on the afternoon train, and will re.
turn to Mitchell IN the course of
few weeks to watch the progress oil
the decoration Of the corn palace fol-
this year.

MUST PAY OR WALK
Milwaukee Road Has Taken Measures to
Prevent Summer Tourists From
Riding Free.
Mrs. S. 7. Greene Entertained GOOdly
Number Of Lady Friends at a Six
O'clock Tea.
Farmers in County Commenced Monday
to Harvest the Best Wheat Crop
They HaYe Had in Years.
TRAMPS CAN'T RIDE FREE
They are Pretty Indignant at Rail
road for Infringing on Their
Alleged Rights.

There were about $50 summer tour
lists. tramps or harvest hands, or
whatever they call themselves, got
into town Saturday over the Mil
Waukee road with the expectation of
going north on the outgoing freight,
but they found their way blocked to
further progress by the presence of
the two policemen, who are looking
after the interests of the company at
this end Of the division. The tramps
were hot, indignant, tha5 their al
legged rights Of transportation were
infringed upon by the railroad oftic-
ials in refusing to carry them free to
the harvest fields of North Dakota.
About half of the bunch formed a
procession and marched up to the
corn palace in search of the chief Of
police. They found him at the cor
ner Of Main and Third and proceed
ed to interview him as to why they
are kept in Mitchell. The spokesman
Of the crowd declared that the sup
erintendent Of the Milwaukee road
at Sioux City made the statement
through the papers that harvest
hands would be permitted to ride free
to the harvest fields, and now when
they got here they were met at the
train by special policemen with clubs
in their hands to knock them off if
they attempt to ride. They asked
the chief why he could not put them
on again. The chief blandly in
formed the tramps that he did not
own the Milwaukee road at the pres
ent time and could not give them
the transportation.
If these fellows want work there is
plenty of harvest work right in this
vicinity, and it seems passing strange
that they insist on going right
through a country where the harvest
is in progress. a person is entitled
to the suspicion that they are not
particularly anxious for work and
take this means to get a ride over the
road free Of charge.
The farmers in this vicinity do not
take kindly to the hobo harvest hand.
In conversation with a farmer a few
days ago he was asked why he did not
employ the tramps, and he remarked
that as harvest hands they did not
amount to anything and were mighty
poor help during the season.
From some of the conversation
overheard as the crowd started back
to the depot it is likely that they
will rake trouble for somebody if
they are notspermitted to ride. One
of the fellows said: "Well there are
enough of US to carry things our own
way, and we will if we have to-
What makes them particularly sore is
that the road will carry them to the
end of the division and then they
have 10 buy a ticket up to Letcher,
