Garretson News: Mitchell has
shown itself to be one of the best and
most progressive towns in the state.
The capital needs Mitchell more than
Mitchell needs the capital. For what
is Pierre noted may we ask: 1t is
the capital, the geographical center,
and has a wonderful voice that it
uses in yelling for help and sympathy.
S. A. Hubbard holds Il farm sale at
his place in Pleasant Grove township
October Is. Mr.. Lumbard advertised
a sale at two different dates last fall.
but Il storm caught both Of them and
he was forced to abandon the disposal
of his property for the time being
Now he is starting in early enough in
the season to make a go of it. Mr..
Lumbard has a lot of desirable prop
erty, a list of which will be found on
the bills printed in this Office. Don't
forget the date.
Fulton Advocate. 1t is very Sig
~niiicant that in all the reports which
are given by people visiting Pierre
there is never a word in reference to
the country contiguous to the capital
City. There is lots of talk about gas,
plunge baths, boat rides, buffalo
h erds. etc, etc, and about what a nice
town Pierre is and how royalty they
were entertained. No one las ever
said a word about Pierre as a town.
There Is no objection to it on that
score, but on the score of suitability
for capital location.
1t remained for c. A. Cahlll of Will
Der township TO put Brule county on
the map at the Yankton state fair.
Mr.. Cahlll came here from Clinton
Co., III. last March and is a breeder of
several kinds of blood live stock and
poultry, He got first premium on
litter OF Poland China pigs, first on
SOW and also first and a diploma for
SOW of any breed. He also captured
first premium on SOW under six
months. He got there also with his
showing of bronze turkeys and chick
ems and second on his geese.
Pukwana Press: VIM. Prefer, one
of the most level-headed farmers OF
Ola township, was in Pukwana last
Saturday. and he was discussing the
capital with a couple of his neighbors
has strong capital convictions that
the capital as between Pierre and
Mitchell ought to be in Mitchell of
course. He said. ~ can't for the life
of me see why anyone living here,
haying property here, can advocate
Pierre for the capital. 1t looks to me
to be the most foolish thing that any
man can possibly do" and Mr..
PrctZer's neighbors with whom he
was talking, all agreed with him.
Monday, the opening day of the
Mitchell corn palace, was Il big boost
to the enterprise, and the towns and
country west as far as Chamberlain
poured in a thousand people to help
push, but the day was no comparison
to those following. The jam began
early Tuesday. A special train was
made up at Canton, but before it had
got a third of the way to Mitchell
there wasn't standing room on the
platforms and it vas necessary to
make up another special at Mitchell
and end it out after the people along
the line who couldn't board the first
one. 1t required two big specials to
take them home at night.
Nermillion Republican: The edi-
tor of the Pierre Frcss Press thinks
lc has ulSCONcIcu Dilc VII us, DC-
cause the otherweek we alluded to
South Dakota as 'sthc best State in
the Northwest" witt more assurance
than percision he Stralghtway asserts
that this is a broad term ana seems
to take in the whole State-bad lands
and gunlbo gullies and all. in one
large lump. If Brother Dewell's ~
legged find warrants serious treatment,
the only reply we need to make woYld
be to quote Il sentence from Ely
Governor Lees late letter to a Black
Hills inquirer after information
wherein that gentlemen tersely and
truthfullv suggested that there was
no state in the Union that was all
good. We know OF one county in our
native State of Vermont that is un-
fitted for agricultural purposes. Half
Of the States of New Jersey and Del
aware are sandbars. Large portions
of Northern Michigan and wisconsin
