Like a Mitchell Jubilee.

From the appearance of the Cataract
during the meeting Of the retail grocers
and editors one would think that it was
Mitchell ju bilee. OF course Pierre had
friends there but the sentiment and
crowd all seemed in favor of Mitchell,
and prominent Sioux Falls old timer
remarked that Mitchell is geographi-
cally the center of population at pre-
sent and will always remain go, not be.
cause otaler parts of the state will not
grow and prosper, but from the fact
that the population of the state will
hold its present and future relation to q
we'll defined center, and Mitchell seems
to be that center in spite of all other
conditions which surround other grow
ing centers of population. Yankton,
Mitchell, Redfeld and Aberdeen are
the leading business centers of a north
line leading through the center of the
state Watertown, Brookings. Sioux
Falls, Canton and Elk Point represent
the eastern line of commercial activity
and all are within easy distance of the
proposed capital location at Mitchell.
From Elk Point, Vermillion, Gsyville,
Yankton, Scotland, Springfield and
Tyndall, Mitchell is but a few hours
distant. From Canton, Worthing,
Lennox, Parker, Maripn Junction,
Bridgewater and Alex andria, Mitchell
is neighbor. The Northwestern takes
you up at Alcester, or at Beresford,
Centerville, Hurley or Parker, and
drops you at Salem where the Sioux
Falls branch Of the Northwestern picks
you up and you are ut Mitchell in q
very short time. From Watertown or
Brookings or Madison you run out west
and jump onto the train with its many
connections at Aberdeen, which picks
up travellers from the east and west at
Redfeld, Wolsey and Woonsocket and
again you are close to Mitchell. The
people west of Chamberlain are close
to Mitchell when they get to the
east side of the river. The same
is true Of those on the west side of
tho Missouri when they reach Pierre.
Tae Black Hills people won't have
to ride all day and part of the
night to reach Mitchell, as they now do

The mid-winter meeting Of the edi'
tors of the state was held at Sioux Falls
on January 81, ~ and from the num-
bers present was the best attended
meeting ever held The boys were
feeling good and an evidence of pros
perity was everywhere visible. When
the writer looks back over stretch of
"a years, and draws a mental picture
of the present and the past, he is forced
to the conclusion that wonders have
taken place in the newspaper field
since January 1870, when the writer
purchased the old Union and Dakotian
from Mcintyre & Foster. At that time
the Vermillion Republican was being
published by Charles True, long since
dead. In the fall of 1870 the Yankton
Press and Elk Point Leader were is-
sued, the former being discontinued
for a time, and then Frank Wisner
took up the task and the Leader con.
tinued to flourish We loaned Wisner
q small job press to help him along and
he has it yet 90 far as we know. We
loaned a hand press to Mr.. Owens when
he began the publication of the Yer
million Register in 1872, and we guess
Owens must have taken it to Washing
ton when he left the territory. We
started the Sioux Valley News with q
lot of surplus material out of the old
Dakotian Office in 1872 to aid COL
Moody in his desire to go to Congress
that year From that time on papers
were established as the territory grew,
and now hundreds are published by
brilliant young editors. What a con-

speak very strongly for Coe I. Crsw.
ford. The write.up of the event is
from the Aberdeen News.
Mr.. Crawford held his much herald.
ed meeting in this city Friday night.
The opera house was occupied by not
to exceed two hundred people. Many
of these were populists and demo.
Gratis. 1t was plain to everyone that
aside from the latter he had less than
dozen sympathizers in the audience.
This statement may sound exaggerated
but it is the fact as near as the News
could Judge by personal observation.
Mr.. Crawford opened his spsech at
o'clock; he closed at S:55 He is a
young man, scarce in the prime of
life. He had not been on the stump
for a couple of weeks; he arrived
here the night before and had a long
period of rest. Notwithstanding this
he almost broke down in the middle
of his tirate. and all through exhibit
ed evidences of mental unrest.
TO state the case mildly, Mr.. Craw;
ford was not at his BEST Speeches

his enthusiasm. Frid ay night, with

est applause, His praises of the party
were received in silence. His perora.
ton was an eloquent tribute to the
national republican party, but it moved
no hand to action.
Three times the nominee Of his party
in this state under conditions similar to
those under which other men have been
nominated He denounced all save his
his present mode of operation accusing
other candidates for the office to which
he aspires of trying to sneak" the
honor. His very denunciation Of the
republican machine" shows positively
that his grievances lie wholly in the
fact that certain individuals whom he
named would not stoop to the practice
he himself condemns and promise to
force his nomination in the convention
regardless of the wishes of the party as
a whole. j
Itch for Office is vile disease. Once
it gains possession of man he becomes
oblivious Of all other sensations For
three years Mr.. Crawford slept with it,
drank with it, eaten with it, worked
with it.. This is the only apology that
can be made to the people of Aberdeen
for the spectacle which Mr. Crawford
made to his audience Friday night.
Ignorance of his condition and the
utterances that would spring from it is
the only excuse that can be made for
his local republican sponsors, if he has
