FOR new CAPIT0!

Aberdeen, s. D.. Nov. 15.-Mhile
some soreness is expressed in some
quarters over the result OF h capital
contest. as d general thing most OF the
Mitchell adherents throughout the
state accept the defeat of their favorite
town gracefully and echo the sentiment
expressed by Chairman Bras when he
congratulated Pierre and expressed the
belief that the capital should remain ut
Pierre forever. This sentiment has de-
Neloped TO such an extent that Il num-
Der of the newspapers of the state
have commenced to advocate the inn
mediate building of a new capitol. The
last legislature passed a bill authorlZ-
ing the warden of the penitentiary to
have the convicts in tina institution
get out stone from the state quarries
for capitol building purposes, and ii
the next legislature should see lit TO
authorize the construction of the cap
itol at once but little time would be
required to get. the structure under
way. During the capital campaign the
newspaper advocates OF the claims OF
both towns protested against the con-
struction of a permanent capitol at
should be postponed until a few years
later, when the state lands set aside
for that purpose will have increased in
value until the state will not find it
necessary to levy a tax to secure the
funds necessary to erect the building.
The present building is deemed unsafe
by many people OF the state. however,
and it is not beyond probability that n
bill to construct a capitol viii be in
troduced at the next session of the
legislature.

Dear Huntinq Season Near.

Lead. S. D, Nov. 16.-The season for
deer hunting in the Black Hills will
open tomorrow, lasting but six weeks.
Deer are said to be very plentiful in
the southern and western Hills this
year, and man parties are being or
gani2ed for hunting trips. The season
is very short, and consequently there is
u general rush when it opens.
For h privilege of bagging this big,
game each hunter is obliged to pay a
license of 81. Anyone from outside the
state must pay $25. No hunter can kill
more thar three deer in a season. And
they cannot be old in any form. The
penalty for violation of the law is Sc
we're. and ninrods are watched pretty
closely.

Huron. S. d., Nov. l5.-The Bunday
computing beam for wagon dump
scale, a device by which the weight of
a wagon or other vehicle is separated
from the load, is among the patents
recently awarded to South Dakotans.
By this device the weight of the wag-
on is given separate from that
of the load, in bushels and pounds, at
a single weighing, thus dispensing with
the usual pencil figuring. The results
are absolutely correct and are instant
ly indicated on the scale beam. The
patentee is S. L. Bunday of Arlington,
grain buyer at hat place for many
years, n secretary of the Central
Dakota FIGURING Mill company, which
has just completed an immense mill
and elevator at that place. The inven-
ton is me that will be especially APP
preciated by grain buyers, although it
is also adapted to the uses of grocers
and market men.

Gould and Vanderbilt.

the only western one that laps over into

ever, unlike Mr.. Gould. are making
no effort to extend the Northwestern
to the Pacific coast, but are content
with the traffic alliance the road has
with Harriman's Union and Southern
Pacific roads. Although the Chicago

erty, yet scrupulous care has been
taken not to have it closely identified
with the Vanderbilt roads east of Chi
