par excellence Of all the fall carni-
walls. The way people pour into that
town from all directions when any,
thing is going on is a sight.
Sioux Falls journal: The corn
palace at Mitchell has been the most
successful entertainment furnished
in South Dakota this year, and for
that matter about the best in the
west. Tho decorations of sthe palace
were certainly up to the standard I
Mitchell has pretty good police regu-
lations, having several plain cloJhes
men and while the town was filled
with crooks who focked there but
little thieving was dcne. Some noted
crooks were run in and the rest were
very quiet.
Redfed Press: The writer and wife
visited the cor palace on Friday last
and commend the city of Mitchell
on getting hold of the right end to
make the show a success. The pal
ace itself, inside and out, is a marvel
OF beauty and the attractions are
first class. It seemed a high price
to pay S4OO per day for the band,
but it always pays to get the best.
Geddes Record: The corr palace
at Mitchell is one in which all South
Dakota should feel a kindly interest,
as nothing ever undertaken in the
state has done so much toward her.
aiding the world over the great corn
producing qualities of the soil of
South Dakota as this splendid expo
sition. Visitors from far and near
have visited Mitchell within the past
ten days and marveled at the beauti-
full display there made. The Mitch
ell Commercial club made it pleasant
for all the visitors and saw that they
were comfortably cared for, either at
hotels or at private homes. Here is
hoping for another corn palace as
grand and managed as successful next
year as attended the efforts of the
business men Of Mitchell this year.
Howard Spirit: The growth and
substantial character of the new i'm
provements surprised those who only
visit the city at long intervals. The
artistic beauty of the corn palace,
the excellence Of the various exhib-
it's, the high class entertainment
provided and the courtesies extended
: to the immense throng made a good
u impression.
Geddes News: There were some
good exhibits at the corn palace at
| Mitchell, but the space was limited
and but few counties could be repre-
sented. The corn palace will have tt
e be enlarged for another year to &C
commodate the incoming crowd an6
: to make more space for county ex
r hibits.

gressive town. Its citizens are Wild
