The Portland police caught an
other holdup artist the other day
and then promptly turned him
loose again on the ground that he
had been working at the house Of
one of the city detectives. This
was accepted as a mitigating cir
cumstance on the ground that evil
associations corrupt good morals.
It's bit rough on the detective
though.

breaches PRACTICAL SERMON
Rev. Mr.. Wilkinson Meeting With
Fine Success in His New
Methodist Passionate.

Rev. II. S. Wilkinson, the ne"
pastor of the NJ. E. church, has
made a splendid hit with our people.
His popularity is Of a lasting naIule
and it seems to be growing. One
week ago the ushers exhausted every
available foot Of space in the church
in order to seat the large audience
that assembled to hear him. The day
was ideal. Some thought the wealth
er had much to do with the size OF
the congregation: but Sunday the
weather vas cold and raw, yet every
seat in the large, capacious Method
ist church was filed. and Il large
number OF chairs were secured and
placed in the aisles and corners to ac-
commodate the multitude Of cnuich
goers that vent to hear him speak.
His sermons are practical, his pull
pit manners are inviting, and his de-
livery is very pleasing. while his
thoughts are robed in splendid rhet-
ORIG which gives an impetus to what
he says.
Sunday he admonished his hear
ers not to wear long faces and con
sIder themselves poor, but to count
their earthly blessings, and each one
| would find that he or she was rich.
He said that riches did not consist OF
silver and gold but Of the possession
of the spirit: in a good digestive ap-
I paratus and an unbroken circle OF
loved ones In Illustration of this
point be said: Rockefeller would
give several million dollars iand pos
sibiy advance the price OF oil a fe"
cents if he only bad the digestion
that some OF you possess so that he
could do Justice to his Thanksgiving
! dinner" He sad further that "some
mothers who are Itch in dollars and
| cents would give their last penny If
! they could only hear a little voice
again that is silent He argued
| that those miSfOrtuneS which seem tc
impoVerish our lives are. in reality
our earthly blessings: that Jenny
Lind would never have sung herself
into such prominence had it not beer
for her grief: Milton would never
have imagined such heavenly vision:
as are depicted in bis in mortal allie
CORY had he not been blind; and Johr
Bunyon would never have found time
to have written bis 'Pilgrim's Pro
gress' had he not been thrust int
prison"

For the benefit of the Pierre side
of the case the Doland Times Record
is endeavoring to make out that
should Mitchell be selected as the
permanent capital Of the state this
town will at once set the wheels in
motion to secure the passage of an
appropriation looking toward the
erection Of a capitol building. The
Record man says the anne thing will
be done if Pierre retains the capital.
The Republican would state for the
benefit of the Record man that it is
not the intention and Mitchell Will
not set forth any scheme at the ses-
sion Of the legislature to secure the
passage Of an APPROPRIATION for a per
manenI capitol building. Long be
| fore the time Of the election Mitch
ell will have completed a granite
building which in every way viii
be adequate for the needs OF the
state for several years. Large lire
proof vaults are being constructed in
the building, and the rooms for the
senate and the house of representa-
tives Will have seating capacity for
the members and visitors for several
years to come. Mitchell promises to
do this and up to the present time
the Record a cannot find an in
stance wherein Mitchell has not
stood by her statements. On the
other hand should the capita! be
retained at Pierre what viii be the
result: 1t will be absolutely nec3s-
sary that Il capitol building be con-
structed at Pierre immediately for
the preservation Of the states rec
ords. The old shack that contains
all the state possesses in that line is
acknowledged to be an unfit place
for a matter Of a couple Of years
until a state building could be
erected. Nothing could be done in
the Pierre case to relieve the sitna-
ton. Another thing that must be
taken into consideration is the fact
that the state must sell its s., 900
acres of school land, which has beer
set aside for the purpose, to secure
funds to erect the building. 1t may
be that in the next three or f0ul
veaIs that the states property vii
be worth p to 50 per cent more
money than it is today or will be (
year from today. The state wOulC
have to sell to meet the pressing
emergency. Whereas Mitchell will
have a building all ready for the oc
%cupancy Of the state on the day o
election and will have d hundred pei
cent better place to provide for the
wants OF the public than what PIER,
has in that line. The state and thu
people would be the winner in NOR
ways than one by placing the capita
at Mitchell. and we believe that tn
: good Judgment Of the voters VII
prevail in favor Of the city in tn
center Of population.

Government Building a Disgrace.

Hudson H~udsonite: Editor Nc
Leod, of the Aberdeen News, has
jumped out into the middle of the
road, slung his hat up in the air and
is %hurrahing for Pierre as hard as
we are for Mitchell for capital. He
probably won't like some of our ar
guments and we certainly take eScep-
ton to some Of his statements.
For instance he says and his say
ing is endorsed by the State Register
Of Pierre. the state would be com
PEELED to put up a permanent capital
building. Now, why not build it
at Mitchell? AS it is that city will
have ready a freproof building, built
of Sioux Falls granite with ample
vaults for all state records and doc
uments as we'll as for the supreme
court library. This building is to be
donated to the state free Of cost un-
til the state can realize upon 81, 900
acres Of land which has Teen set
apart by the state government for
this specific purpose. This gives the
state lots Of time to dispose Of this
land at a good figure. What's the
use Of saying that a new building
would have to he built at Pierre.
Don't we know it? Are we not
aware OF the fact that our govern
ment buildings are a disgrace TO the
state: Don't we know that If a tiIe
broke out our state records are gone
UP in smoke? Of ours we do
Better not advertise it any more,
Bro. Mcleod. Let such thing;
alone or you will be putting two goot
words 1Or Mitchell when you thinl
you are only %hurrahing for Pierre.
Mitchell has got Pierre On the hip II
every way.
Better location. easier of access
citizens who are e~nterprlsing ant
willing to do gratis what Pierre doe
grudgingly or not at all. and is mucl
better place all around for the stat
capital than the present location.

WANT TO REClPROCATE
Miller and Hand County Citizens are
Reaching After That Milwau-
kee Extension.

The Miller Gazette: The farmers
of Hand county want the Milwaukee
road and they want it bad. The,
Northwestern road has done all for
Hand county that it ever can do, and
whatever inducements IA citizens
can lend to the Milwaukee company
it should be forthcoming in whatever
way it will best promote a reciprocal
feeling between our people and the
Milwaukee company. We have it on
be built from north TO south and
| with the Northwestern travelling
from east to west the new road would
| be the proper thing. The Milwau-
kee is the most aggressive road in the
state at the present time and if we
| can connect u county with its great
system it would be Of inestimable
benefit to our citizens in more ways
than one. Not only would it give
US better freight rates, but better
shipping facilities. Now is the time
to snug up to the Milwaukee and be
good.
Now. reader. divorce yourself from
any previous opinion for a while and
mediate upon this subject. We
have lived here these many years as
pioneers looking forward to the time
when our county would be more
modern in ways and means, and is
not this a time honorable to assis,
providentia! circumstances in attain.
ing for Hand county what we hoped
for years ago? In the sos ana 90's
we believed Hand county was a gooC
county and that time would prove
it. Success lies with the ones wh(
grasps opportunity. AS one who ha:
had his share Of pioneer life in thi:
county. we are ready to use every
honest means to bring this county
TO its just position as an agrlcul
tural county of the state. In GU.
judgment time will prove that thi
county will produce as much wealth
as the best Of them, and We mos
l certainly need more railroad facili
) ties.

Reasons for Supporting Mitchell.

Yankton Dakota Freie Presse: We
cannot dc otherwise than accept the
fact that the most import ant question
the citizens of South Dakota have to
decide next year is the location OF
the state capital. The voters will
have to decide whether the capitol,
that means the state government
building). should remain forever in
Pierre, or if it should come to a city
that can be easier reached by the
state officers. legislators and citizens.
Mitchell is now in the field fol- the
honor Of becoming the permanent
seat of government OF the state OF
South Dakota. y newspaper so
| widely circulated III the state Us the
Dakota FIeie Press cannot overlook
20 important a question, but feels
compelled to take this matter up,
like it does every other question OF
political and economical Importance.
1t cannot be immaterial to US on
which side we are going to stand.
A no as II proves l3tdl SOuellLItS lOl
d newspaper to Jump blindly into
the political arena we have taken
pains to make a careful study OF the
situation, both by diligent study Of
the arguments of the principals in
the capital contest and from extern
sive inquiry among prominent citi-
Zens of the state. We sent circulars
to about 40 representatives OF this
paper and have received about 80 an
swers, of which only 1 favored Pierre.
The majority is clearly in favor of
moving the capital to Mitchell. 1t
is clear to US: therefore: that the
majority Of the people of the state
feel the same way; and it may be
stated as a general proposition that
the majority generally 90 the right
thing. The Dakota F1eie Presse in
taking the side OF Mitchell in the
capital fight is simply following out
istronn public sentiment.

Maris Taylor is going to fool the
democrats of this state who think
they have no representative on the
national committee. Arrangements
had been made to hold a meeting Of
the state central democratic commit
tee at Huron next week for the pur-
pose Of selecting a successor Of Mr..
Taylor. He moved to Washington
state a year ago and it Vas supposed
that he was going to rem ain there.
When Mr.. Taylor heard of what was
going on in democratic circles lie at
once snt word that be still considered
himself d resident Of South Dakota
and would retain his residence heIe
until his term expired on the ma.

thing Of a disappointment to those
who had other things in view fol
