Tweedledee and Tweedledum.

In discussing the argument by
this paper, advanced against capital
removal as related to the security OF
the location of the state institutions,
the Mitchell Republican says:
At each n of the towns where In
institution is located the state has
thousands of dollars invested and it
does not stand to reason that the
state would attempt a thing of this
character at such a sacrifice as would
have to be made.
This same argument applies to
Pierre. The state owns a capitol
building and twenty acres Of valu.
able land there, but this is the way
the Republican gets out of that:
At the state capital the situation
is entirely different. The state does
not own a foot Of ground or a build
which the city of Mitchell does not
offer to duplicate in goods 100 per
cent better.
Mitchell offers to duplicate the
states property at Pierre. Why
couldn't WATERFOWL or Huron or
some other town offer to duplicate
the states property at Brookings9
1t is true that there are several thou
sand dollars more invented in the
Brookings college than in the state
house, but it is worth a great deal
more to a town. There has been
enough money spent in the location
of the capital in this state to dupli-
cate every dollars worth at the state
agricultural college, and this college
represents more money than any
other state in institution.
Should Mitchell duplicate the
states property the state would be
no better off, and tho present prop
erty would be rendered worthless,
worse than wasted, and the citizens,
of Pierre, who paid for that property
in consideration of the location of
the capital at Pierre, would be
greatly wronged. - Bookings Press.

SHETLAND PONIES SOLD.
Children of Birmingham Have a Great
 Time at Auction.

An interesting auction sale took place yesterday afternoon in front of Fies' stables, in which a number of children were the most interested parties. Through their fathers and mothers they were try ing to purchase Shetland ponies six of which were sold all bringing good prices.
 While the papas were doing the bidding the children were hanging anxiously onto their hands and urging papa to bid higher" Tn all about 100 people gathered around the front of the place to listen to the sale and pick up bargain If that was possible. The demand was consider ably in excess of the supply, and so there were a number of disappointed children, although the hearts of five or six were made glad.
 J. J. Hunnicutt of Woodlawn bought two ponies, Ed Russell one for his little girl, Crawford Johnson one for his boy, MT. Chapman one for his daughter, and Dr. Mobley one for his boy.
 The children wanted to buy the ponies cheap. and could not understand why they kept going higher and higher, but soon they learned that their parents would have to bid over the other man, and the parents did not lack for sufficient urg- ing. It was choice collection of little | horses

TO EXHIBIT WORKS
 OF NOTED ARTIST
PICTURES DRAWN BY GIBSON, PYLE, REMINGTON, HARRISON, FISHER AND OTHERS TO BE SOLD IN BIRMINGHAM.

Arrangements are being made to bring to Birmingham the exhibition of the Newspaper Artists association. Leading public spirited men are receiving invita- tions to act as patrons to the show and if their cooperation Is secured, rare treat is in store c. w. Parker. the presi- dent of the association and N. II. Kup- per, the general manager are here in the interest of the exhibition which will be held at the Hillman for the week beginning December 20. This organization numbers some HOO members and exhibi- tons are held annually in each of the principal cities of America, and the sale of drawings and paintings, at same, run well up toward the s1o,0OO mark. These exhibitions afford the public an opportun- ity of seeing original drawings in all mediums by the leading illustrators of the world, and presents to the artists like opportunity to dispose of work that has served its purpose as an illustration.
 With magazines vieing with each other to produce the greatest artistic triumphs, comes the employment of the great mas ters of the day as illustrators. For the front cover of an issue of The Ladies Home Journal, Jessie Wilcox Smith re- ceived s15OO. Charles Dana Gibson re ceives from Golfers an annual Income of $5O,OOO on a contract calling for only fifty drawings year. A page illustration in Harper's entitled "The Plowman," by Howard Pyle. is valued at 5000 and $35O was paid for the rights of its reproduce tion Scarcely a page illustration in any of the leading magazines that does not represent so the publishers an expend! | ture of from $1OO to $250.
 These prices prevail In the rivalry that exists between the magazines to secure the work of the leading artists, and their copyright prevents 1t being published again in any form. In almost every in- stance the price is paid for publishing rights only, and the artist retains his pie ture, these are placed in the hands of this association to be exhibited and sold.
 A local feature will be the cartoons of Birmingham's leading business. profess sial and social lights, and quite bit of amusement may be had in seeing hun- dred of them in one collection. These are to be made by Blackman of The Age Herald, Floyd Campbell, Vet Anderson and others

INTERESTING CASE.
Judge Feasln Will Hear Arguments on
 Close Point In Law.

An interesting case came up yesterday in Judge Feagin's court in the trial of a negro charged with larceny. fine point in law was brought out during the trial and the matter is to be argued before him today.
 The case Is where negro picked up a s10 bill which he saw a man drop. He hid the bill in his shoe and when the policeman arrested him he made him give up the money. The question in the case is whether or not the testimony regarding the policeman making the ne gro give up the money is admissible in court. The attorney for the negro claims that it would be making the negro testify against himself.
 The supreme court has held that If an officer forces a man to open a grip on suspicion that 1t contained a concealed weapon, and finds the weapon. the eyi- | dence cannot be considered by court,
 as 1t was forcing a man to testify against himself
