MITCHELL DISTRICT ALREADY HAS
ALL THE STATE INSTITUTIONS
SHE CAN HOLD.

1t will be noted by glance at
the map, that the present south
eastern district of South Dakota,
in which Mitchell is situated, al
though but small fraction of the
whole state, has seven of the four
teen state institutions located
within its boundaries, and now the
city of Mitchell modestly asks to
be given the eighth by the remov-
al of the state capital.
If the state capital is removed
from Pierre there will be great
district in the central portion of
the state, extending from Nebras-
ka to North Dakota and running
25O miles east and west, without
one state institution within it's
borders. The question arises:
When this great district develops.
which state institution will it's
people 90 after, and whose turn
will it be then to fight against re-
mOval.
One Of the set arguments used
by Mitchell is to the residents of
the southeastern part of the state.
that if the capital is moved to
Mitchell their lands will he in
creased in value from five to ten
dollars per acre. There is only
one conclusion to draw from this
argument, viz: That the proximi.
ty of the capital will increase land
values. Now to consider that ar
gument as one which is logical,
where does the interest of the peo.
pie Of the whole state lie! The
state lands which are expected to
help support the different state
institutions all lie remote from
Mitchell and nearer Pierre. If
the capital location will increase
values, would it not be to the in
terest of the people to increase the
value of these state lands as rapid
ly us possible and make them rev.
enue producers! Will it not re-
duce taxation to a greater extent
to make the state lands support
the institutions! The heaviest ex-
pense upon the taxpayers of the
state is the support Of these insti-
tutioriS, and anything which will
help reduce the direct expense of
their support il certainly to the

NOTICE.

On the request of Mrs. A. f. Wells, the trus-
tees of the Thomas Thompson trust asked the
sewing women at their recent meeting to ar
range for the appointment from time to time
of an additional reference committee through
whom applicants, if t. ey so desired, could have
the facts of their cases presented to the trHs
tees for their decision.
In accordance with this request Mrs A. J.
Currier has been nominated by a committee of
the sewing women elected for that purpose at
this meeting, has been accepted by the trus
tees, and has agreed to perform this duty for
them.
Any persons considering themselves entitled
to assistance from the fund are at liberty to APP
ply through Mrs. Currier, it being understood
that this arrangement does not in any way pre-
vent persons who so desire from applying
through Mrs. Wells. Ii is also to be understood
that applications made through Mrs. Wells
will be governed by exactly the same condi-
tions as to privacy heretofore prevailing. In
either case the facts of the cases will be pre-
sented to the trustees, and the decision will he
theirs.
This arrangement has been made with the in
tent on the part of the trustees to meet, so far
as practicable the wishes of some of the sew
ing women to have a voice from time to time as
to the medium through which their cases
should be brought to the attention of the trus-
tees. At the same time, the trustees wish to
reserve to those sewing women who so prefer
the right to apply as before, through Mrs.
Wells. whose services have always been en-
ti-ely satisfactory to the trustees and to a large
number of the sewing women. Mrs Wells is In
this way relieved from the difficult position of
being the only medium through whom applica-
tions can readily be made, but her duties are in
other respects in no way changed.
