She always seems so pleasant that
! often wonder what good fairy,
BY magic OF some wand's fiat,
Decreed her moods and manners airy.
And smiles-I marvel much thereat
When cares great cross is hers to
carry
Yet, be dun grief or gladness present.
She hath the art Of seeming pleasant
To beauty slight would be her claim,
Likewise to grace and lofty station
And, though she bears an honored name,
Her hearts ne'er felt that quick pulsa-
ton
That comes with picking fruits OF fame
And earning critics sweet oblatlon.
Her placid life hath known no wimple,
Yet smiles keep e'er her cheeks a-dimpie,
/ think the fates or fairies must
Have. when with Braces they endowed
her,
BethOukht how beauty dies as dust
And fame doth crumble Into powder,
While smiles 1--we on, and, being just,
This greater boom than all allowed her
A grace most sweet In queen or peasant,

The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1903-10-23

One OF the amusing things of the
capital campaign is to read the daily
and weekly press that m from
Pierre. Long tine ago they twisted
and distorted matters concerning the
country west Of Pierre, which they
alleged were said by Mitchell and her
capital committee, and rarely a day
goes bv, or a week, for that matter,
but what they pay out a few stunts
concerning Mitchell's alleged knock
ing proclivities on the reservation.
They are declaring that Mitchell is
backing water on the original alleged
proposition and that we are trying to
cover up our tracks. Why, bless your
heart, you Pierre fellows, Mitchell
has never said a word derogatory to
that section or any section OF the
state. What Pierre is attempting to
do is to make it appear that Mitchell
has done so and thus try to bring
the dislike of people against US.
Mitchell has stated her position as
to Pierre's allegations but u short
lived capital friends don't propose to
let 60 Of that little stub which they
are working up to mountainous size
for their WI sake. With her corn
palace Mitchell has endeavored to ad-
vertiSe South Dakota and her pro-
ducts and that means every foot Of
the state and we don't bar any Sec
tion. When the city Of Pierre does
one-hundredth part of the amount Of
advertising for South Dakota that
Mitchell has done then she can get
on the housetop and yell ''knock'' at
Mitchell until she gets black in the
face.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER %, 1903.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway certainly made a most excel
lent selection in the person OF Mr.. T..
S. Young when the company placed
him at the head of their advertising
department, and the evidence is ac-
cumulating right along that this part
of the road will be kept e~ternallV and
prominently before the public. Mr..
Young paid a visit to Mitchell dur
ing the corn palace and he Travelled
over the agricultural portion OF the
state while in this country. Since
his return to Chicago he has secured
column after column Of interviews
in the leading publications in Chi
cago. and he has intelligently set
forth what South Dakota has done in
the closing season in an agricultural
way. In nearly all OF the daily pa
pers he had printed an illustration
of Mitchell's cor palace with a nice
story about this big South Dakota
feature. Mr.. Young is a newspaper
man of ripe experience and he I'M
derstands thoroughly the use OF
printers ink, and as a result Of his
conscientious labors we feel safe in
saying that the Milwaukee will
get the best advertising for the ter.
ritory through which it passes than
it ever had before.

SAME CASE IN IOWA
Old Line Insurance Companies in
Iowa VIM Out Against Anti
compact Law.

Preston & lIannet, who are attor-
neys Tor the old line insurance com
panies in their tight against the anti
compact law in this state. feel some
what encouraged by the decision Of
the federal count Of Iowa on the
same question. The folio wing dis
patch from DesMoines gives the in
formation in the Iowa case, which
is substantially the same in the
South Dakota case:
Judge Mcpherson has decided the
anti-compact insurance case brought
in the federal court against the state
auditor to prevent him from enfOrc-
ing the penalties against foreign in
surance companies for --violaLion Of
the law %forbidding compactS, com
bines or agreements between the cun.-
panieSa iii. regard TO rates Or comnis-
sions OR business. He holds that tie
penalties are not enforced becaus,
the state has entered into agreement
virtually with the companies to allow
them to do business, and the auditor
has no right to shut them out. He
also holds that the state undertakes
to prevent the right of contract be-
tween the companies, which is lnviO-
late and necessary for them to dc
business.
Suit was brought on behalf of d
large number of foreign companies at
the instance of the insurance beard
or combine. H..
