VermilliOn Republican Right.
This is the first edition of the Dakota
Republican printed in the new year. It
seems an opportune time for displaying
our colors in the current capital contest
Accordingly we nail to our editorial
masthead the Mitchell flag, and expect
it will fly there until that prosperous
and puissant city-the center Of popu.
lation peopling the fair and fertile
plains around it for more than q hun.
dred miles IN every direction-has be-
come the seat of government of our
good State of South Dakota. We have
given this capital controversy consider
able thought during the past months,
refraining from any committal of OK.

our own mind. The conclusion, how
ever, that we have clearly arrived at is,
that the best interests of Vermillion
and Clay County will be better con-
served if the capital islocated at Mitch.
ell than they will by its remaining at
Pierre. We find, by consulting with
our citizens, that large majority our
people are of like opinion with us in the
premises. 1t is perfectly safe propo-
sition to put Clay in the list of Mitchell
counties. Next week we hope to give
at some length few of the reasons
which have constrained us to cast our
lot with the great array of advocates
who will advocate Mitchells cause and
claim as the proper place for the perma-
nent location Of the States capital.

THEY were BADLY FOOLED.
Those Who Have Taken Lands
West of the Missouri River.
Under Mistaken Ideas.

A few weeks ago we clipped from an
exchange story Of some young men
living near Volga who have been mis-
led into taking claims near Pierre sup.
posing they could acquire title without
actually living on the land. They lost
all the time invested in the experiment,
as their patents were withheld.
Last week we noticed in the Belle
Fourche Bee an account Of similar
experience at Deadwood. A number
Of claimants coming in to make final
proof were confronted by special
agent of the general land Office, who
cross questioned their witnesses ex.
posing the fatal weakness of their claim
to the land. They, also, were out Of
pocket every cent the attempt to beat
the law had cost them. 1t will not work
any more. Uncle Sam is slow easy
going old chap until he gets after you,
and then he is ''bad man to fool with. z
There are only few isolated patches
of agricultural land which can be
farmed without irrigation, left. That
and all vacant land which can be easily
irrigated is valuable. The people who
own jt-that means all of us-expect
the proper officials to see that it is not
grabbed by spectators or land mono
polists They are doing 90. Nobody
is aggrieved by strict enforcement of
the laws. Every acre Of the public do
main has value for either tillage, graz.
ing, mining, or. for the timber growing
on it. 1t is ours. We want to hold it
40 common property or pass it into the
hands of home seekers for actual homes.
It ia to the interest of every citizen of
Sonth Dakota that every acre of public
land within the state should pass into
private hands; become taxable. and be
utilized for the purpose to which it is
best adapted cultivation, mining or
grazing.
1t is the privilege and duty Of the
people in the sparcely settled localities,
where there is yet vacant land, to adver-
tise It's advantages and promote its set
tlement. But II is most reprehensible
to misrepresent either the land itself or
the modus operandi necessary to obtain
title to it. The policy of the Pierre
boomers in deluding people not familiar
with land laws with the impression that
they can file on claims, hold them a few
year-or months living meanwhile in
. distant part Of the state, or in dis
tant state, and thus perfect title 10 the
land. is gross injury to the victims.
It cannot be done The homestead laws
require residence upon and cultivation
of the land. One cannot secure a title
without either doing both, or falsely
Swearing and proving that he has done

Pierre's object in this deception is
easily apparent. The Young man, who
thinks he owns land in that vicinity, is
more likely to favor the retention Of
the capital there Then, too, Pierre
lists as an actual settler every one who
files claim, and from this text preach
es of the rapid settlement of the reser-
vation 1t must be desperate straits
indeed which lead men to resort to
such tactics.-Howard Spirit.

"THE OFFICE BOY"

Frank Daniels in his humorous mu-
steal comedy, 1.-THE Office Boy" comes
to the Spokane tonight under the di-
rection of Charles B. Dillingham;. The
piece was one of the most amusing of
last seasons theatrical offerings. In
a series of comical adventures, 1t tells
the story of an office boy whose ambi-
lions soar above his lowly position in
life. The libretto is spoken of as
amusing the music is described as
pretty, and in the title role Mr. DAN
iels has, it is claimed, one of the best
parts that has come to him in his
stage career. "rhe Office Boy" was
one of the remarkable successes of
last winter in New York, Philadel-
phia, Boston and Chicago. The origi-
nal production will be brought here
intact, so 1t is promised. Mr.. Dan
iels' supporting company, it is stated,
numbers nearly 100 people and his
cast is q clever and talented one. The
curtain will be raised at $40 sharp.

The great value Of Liduozone lies
in the fact that ii does what oxygen
does. Oxygen is the vital part Of air.
the very source Of vitality, the most
essential element Of life. 1t is the
blood food, the nerve food, the scav-
enger of the blood. 1t is oxygen that
turns the blue blood to red in the
lungs; that eliminates the waste It's
sue and builds up the new. Too lit
tie oxygen always causes lack of vi
tality. An excess of it gives strength
to every function of Nature.
Oxygen is also germicide. The
reason is that germs are vegetables;
and an excess of oxygen-the very
life of an animals deadly to vege-
tai matter.
Liquozone acts like oxygen But II
does more than oxygen, because it is
stable. 1t carries it's virtues into the
blood to go wherever the blood goes.
1t is n remarkable tonic-the best
thing in the world for you. Yet it
is germicide so certain that we pub
lish on every bottle an offer of $1,000
for a disease germ that it cannot kill.
The discoverer of Liquozone has
solved the great problem of killing
germs in the body without killing the
tissues, too. And there is no other
way. Any drug that kills germs Is
poison, and it cannot be taken in
ternally. Liquozone is the only way
that any man knows to end the cause
of any germ disease.

through physicians and hospitals, in
this country and others. We proved
1t in all kinds of germ diseases-in
thousands of the most difficult cases
obtainable. And we cured with it
nearly every disease which was con-
sidered incurable.
We knew then that the product was
of vital worth to humanity. We
knew that everywhere there was sick
ness which Liquozone alone could cure
and suffering which nothing but LII
quozone could stop. We knew that
thousands died daily whom Liquozone
could save.
But what was the best way to
quickly let the sick ones know of It?
How could we get this help to
them at once? How could we con-
vince them that Liquozone did what
medicine never could do?
We decided to buy the first bottle
and give 1t free to every sick one We
learned Of We would let the prod
uct itself prove it's power. So We pub
lished this offer, again and again, in
nearly every newspaper in America.
The result is that millions use LII
quozone now. Your own neighbors
wherever you are, can tell you about
1t. And half the people one meets,
in any part of America, know some
one whom LiquoZone has cured.

What Liquozone Is

Iiquozone is not medicine. 1t

drugs, nor is there any alcohol in it,
Its virtues are derived solely from gas
