MITCHELL SHOULD BE VERY
CAREFUL.

Mitchell's contention that the land
west of the Missouri river is sterile,
unfit for cultivation, and that the
only use 10 which it can be put is
that of raising coyotes, jack rabbits
and sage bush, is a knock which will
do the aspiring town no good in the
fight for capital honors.
Abuse is yer a poor argument,
and the person or community who
INDUCES in it always has a weak
cause; so Mitchell instead of making
friends in the Black Hills and other
cities and communities west of the
river, has lost them and will be
surprised at the big majority which
will resent the ISLANDERS sent out
from there.
There is a gentleman living in
Lead today who left his home in
Illinois not many years ago and
bought 10000 acres of government
land. His friends back in Illinois
looked upon him as a crazy man,
and thought him foolish to put his
money in "desert" land which would
never return him anything. Five
years later the gentleman sold some
of his land for S6 an acre. The
desert was beginning to bloom. A
few years later he was offered and
refused $40 an acre for the rest OF
! his holdings. Today sections OF
the 10000 acres, purchased at 70
cents an acre ebout thirty or thirty
five years ago, a not be bought
for 800 an acre. This is the same
character of land which lies west o.
the Missouri river, the same sol
which Mitchell shouters declare il
unproductive and sterile.
With a railroad across the country
from Pierre, or any other Missouri
town, to the Black Hills, all of thi,
land, which is declared a desert b,
the paid boomers of the Dawson
county village, will be settled ant
cultivated. In fact much of it ha,
already been taken up, and dali,
; entries Of lands are being made b,
! settlers.
} Mitchell men should be more care
full in the statements which the,
3 make, especially when they effect
!, large number Of people who hav
votes, and who will resent the sland
: ering of their homes.-Pierre Pres
Bureau.

Mitchell has had a great deal to
say since the commencement of the
capital removal campaign, concern
ing the alleged gift to the state, by
= lease, Of its so-called capital build
ing.
The sincerity Of Mitchell's pre-
tensions can best BE- gagged by its
actions during the last session of
the Legislature.
It will be remembered that the
capital removal resolution passed
the Legislature quite early in the
session of 1908. but the Mitchell

Mitchells attempt to buy the
voters of the state by offering them
the use of its city hall indefinitely
for capital purposes, is a cheap

1abocNp9o1 Paces N.Oo Per Yea
Editor Andrews of the Lid
s gerwood Broadaxe 10 greatly
troubled over articles that ap-
pear in this paper from time to
I time. Almost every week he
comes out with a big bunch of
nonsense in a vain attempt at
criticism, which have been so
utterly foolish that we have
!, deemed a reply not necessary,
knowing full we'll that all he is
fishing for is a little free adver-
tising through our columns.
Last week he published
about a column of "stuff" roast
ing The Times for daring to
! make any comment on "blind
pig spotters." -.
Editor Andrews is one of
those rank prohibitionists, of
the Simon pure type, who be-
lieves that the drinking of a
glass of beer is a crime and
therefore, simply because it is
his belief, all others should be
prohibited from 50 doing. He
does not take into considera-
..tion that this is a tree country,
nor does he believe the majority
should rule. He realizes that
the prohibition law was enacted
years ago, and tackled onto our
statute in such a manner, that
it is next to impossible to have
it removed. He does not realize
that this state is going through
the same ordeal that the older
states have passed through and
which took them years to
throw off, leaving only three
states at the present timesthat
have this greatest of all farces
Aof law on their statute books.
He has evidently not been
reading tn E state papers of late
or he would have noticed the
cry from all classes of people
to have this law stricken from
our statutes and a high license
law enacted, which would place
this thfic where it could be
handled by the better classes
and not, az in the present case;
by "boot-leggers, thugs and
people who have no interest in
the state"
He realizes full we'll that the
majority is against this law,
realizes that if it were SUBJ.
mitted to- the people that it
would be turned down almost
unanimously. Instead of being
fair-minded'in the matter with
the thought uppermost in his
mind that thiasis free country
and that the majority should
rule, he looks at it in just the
opposite light and says to him
self 1--WE prohibitionists have
got the upper hand and while
we realize that we have the
majority against us we have
this law on our statutes and
we won't allow the people to ]
vote on it, and the majority can
simply 60 to the d."
A law that, is not approved
of by majority of the people
can never be enforced, and just
30 long as the present -ryohibi-
tion lawRdisgraces our statutes
just so long will We have this
needless expense of prosecu-
tions end "reign of crime"

why do not the prohibitionists
want this question submitted

RUSSIA IN BAD WAY.
Fleet Bottled Up and No Chance 4
Combine.

Russia's navy is widely scattered.
A large part of it is in the Baltic set,
in northern Europe; and a strong fleet
is in the Black sea. In southern Eu.
rope. where it is effectually bottled up
by the treaty Of 1S41, confirmed by
the Paris peace Of 1856.
The Bosphorus connects the Black
sea with the sea of Marmora. and the
Dardanelles connects the sea of Mar
mora with the Mediterranean. BY the
terms Of the treaty of 1S41 no foreign
ship of war may enter the Dardanelles
except by Turkish permission. There
fore the Russian Black set fleet can
not pass into the Mediterranean and
thence into the Atlantic.
Now that the Russian squadron In
the Pacific has been crippled by the
Japanese, Russia must find a way to
strengthen the damaged squadron or
yield naval supremacy to the govern.
ment of the mikado. It is not surpris-
ing, therefore. to learn that a report
Is current in London that Russia is
trying to arrange with Turkey to- per.
NIT the Black sea fleet to pass the Oar.
danelles. Since the consent of Great
Britain will also be needed, there is
no probability that the Russian fleet
will be released. Japan and Great
Britain are bound by treaty to support
each other under certain contingen.
cies. This alliance is particularly d.
rected against Russia, and Great Brit.
ain will not consent to the liberation
of hostile feet which would instant.
ly be directed against her friend and
