Given Their Visitors.

Madison Outlook From every in
dication Mitchell has made a great
success of her 1903 orn palace.
Canton Leader: The corr palace is
a MAGNIFICENT creation Of generi art
and human ambition, local pride and
genuine western enterprise-the kind
that discounted adversitv and smiled
in the days when grasshoppers de-
voured the productive evidence that
summer was giving forth her bOunti-
full bloom. This is the spirit behind
the Mitchell corn palace. The corn
palace was more beautiful than ever
before and the handsomest corn pal
ace ever constructed. The Mitchell
club organization is perfect and tie
gentlemen behind the corn palace
management are the cream Of Dako-
ia hustlers.
Emery Enterprise: We believe it
was the largest crowd Mitchell ever
witnessed on a like occasion, and
everybody who went expressed him
self as being we'll satisfied with the
exposition and the different attrac-
lions.
Vermillion Pain Talk: Citizens
of the corn palace city have not
stood on their dignity since the op-
ening of the "big show" and until
the closing day exerted their utmost
energy in showing the visitors a good
time.
Observation-Disclosures: 1t was our
first visit to Mitchell and we were
much impressed with the beauty and
cleanliness Of the place and the evil
dences of enterprise and thrift so ap-
parent on all sides. \ II \ Mitch
ell people are as brave as they are
courteous and hospitable and will
put up a great capital fight.
Wagner New Era: The corn pal
ace this year eclipsed any previous
effort in that line. The citizens OF
Mitchell are to be congratulated on
the..splendid manner in which they
cared for visitors. 1t is a good town,
has good railway connections and,
last but not least, some of the best
fellows on earth live there.
Miller Sun: Mrs. Stratton and lit
tie son, Cole, attended the Mitchell
corn palace several days. They re
port a grand display of products, en-
tertainment and hospitality by thu
Mitchell people. They also repor'
that the Miller band did our town
Agreat credit.
Lesterville Ledger: If Mitchell
proves to be as good a vote getter a
she has a crowd getter at the corr
belt exposition she will certainly b
the capital.
Woonsocket Times: The corn pal
ace at Mitchell closed yesterday afte
, a ten days successful session. San
born county as usual had the hes
exhibit, but as there was no priz
ofered we got no blue ribbon. l
point Of both entertainment and ea
y hibits the exposition probably sui
" passed all previous efforts, that is tn
"a opinion, at least, Of most of those j
~ attendance.
Letcher Chronicle: The corn pa
ace at Mitchell has been a thing {
beauty and a grand success. Mitche
all has taken good are Of her visitor
and they should be thankful. even
he they think it to he a "capital'' i'd
on the part Of Mitchell. Let US hol
Mitchell may be as successful in b
= "capital' idea as in her palace.
~ Andover Gazette: The corn pala
at Mitchell surpassed all form
6 years. The exhibits-.of the differel
counties made n feel proud to be
lcitizen Of this young and progre
sive state. The people of Mitch
are to be congratulated on the graz
success of their-~.corn palace. N
only were the hotels, but the priva
homes thrown open to visitors.
Kimball Graphic: 1t looks
though the Mitchell folk would ha
to make the corn palace a permane
fall festival. The attendance tt
year was the largest Of any of
five expositions, and the attractiC
and entertainment the best ever
m the state. Mitchell IS located il
