week, the Sioux Fails Argus-Leader
takes the new train seriously and is
giving d good deal of attention to

few trains to Pierre to worry any
one:
a new passenger service began ON

this morning. The new train goes
north at + a. III. and south at IL 40

One OF the peculiar things CT the
capital campaign %happended over at
Huron a few evenings ago when an
alleged mass meeting was held for
the purpose OF bringing together the
waning support OF Pierre. There
was a handful OF people at the opera
house ana they s'denouncedn Mitch
ell for her alleged 'campaign OF
SANDER on the country west OF
Pierre. There were men i'm that
meeting who signed IN agreement
with Redheld, Huron and Mitchell
honestly agreeing to support the
town that was selected by the legis-
lature against Pierre for the feloca-
ton OF the capital. John Longstaff,
the sc~lf-confessed falsitier, was M
OF them that re%pudiated himself.
Huron accuses Mitchell Of slandering
the country west OF Pierre. Mitchell
has never slandered the country in
the least. We simply have main
| tanned that the country vas the best
| on earth for grazing purposes and that
| there ure no indications OF its yer
! becoming an agricultural country,
not on . scale large enough at least
to support anything OF a population.
How queerly the wheel turns around
in the course Of years. Just fourteen
years ago in the issue of the Huron
lite OF Sept. D, 1890, that paper ad-
voclted the same thing about the
reservation not being suited to agri-
culture and they produced arguments
along the same line tnat Mitchell is
setting forth today. Now that
;town. or a few self-appointed nanip-
ulators, have taken upon themselves
the duty Of trying to turn ReadIe
county over TO Pierre. The Huron
lite editor claims that Mitchell's men
in that county are trying to bride
the voters. John LongstaT simply
lies and he knows it when he makes
the statement. Simply because he
was susceptible to Pierre influence
he should sweep before his own door
before making such rash charges.
