FIXING CHRISTMAS DAY.
whv the Holiday Is Always Cele-
brated ON the Twenty-Fifth
of December.

There are no definite illusions in the
writings of any OF the disciples OF
Christ as to the date of His birth, nor
has there ever been produced proof
of any character as to the exact period
in the year when Christ was born.
There are, very true, occasional refer
ences to the event in the Scriptures,
indicating that the nativity occurred In
the winter season.
The institution of the anniversary
dates back to the second century OF
Christendom, and it has been since
uniformly celebrated by nearly all
branches of the Christian church with
appropriate rejoicings and ceremonies
The frequent, and somewhat heated.
controversies, however, relative to the
date of Christs birth early in the
fourth century led Pope Julius |. to
order thorough investigation OF the
subject by the learned theologlans ana
historians of that period, which result
cd in an agreement upon December 20,
and that decision seemed to have so
settled all disputes that that date was
universally accepted except by the
creek church, says the American
Queen While this date was never
changed. the reckoning of 1t is made
according to the GregOrian calendar,
which was adopted in the latter part
of the sixteenth century, and upon
which computations of time in nearly
al civilized nations have since rested

Prichard Townsite.

We take the following from the
Prospector. Fort Steele. B. c., which
will be Of interest to our readers, as 1t
relates to the townsite owned by the
Gold River Mining and Power Co., OF
this city:
Prichard is the name of the new
town. which will be located on Bull
river, near the placer ground of the
Gold River Mining Company.
1t is reported that the new town will
be surveyed and plated. and on the
market as soon as the big ditch and
ilume is completed II is expected that
the power house., for the Bull River
Falls Power and Light Co., will be
completed and the necessary machinery
installed by the time of completion Of
fume.
Prichard townsite is one of the pretti-
est spots in the Kootenay valley. good
hunting aud fishing can be found in
close proximity to the new town6 which
will no doubt be very interesting
place for visiting tourists, hunters and
those seeking few weeks outing in
the mountains.

tnolE newspaper SuppoEGoxe tn0s sAe
Mitchell boomers were running per.
fectly clean campaign and wore put.
ting no money into the capital fight
It's dollars to doughnuts that, win Or
lose. Mitchell will be bankrupt for the
next fifty years as q result of thia
capital fight The newspapers which
are mounting their high horses against
Pierre along this lire should have done
90 before the question was submitted.
No doubt some of the grafters had this
feature In view whom capital removal
campaign was being agitated. "
It's dollars to doughnuts that Pierre
is blowing in ten dollars to Mitchelps
one e-while Mitchell has ten dollars In
resources to Pierre's one. Pierre would
do we'll to keep mum on the bankrupt
subject. The people have not forgot
ten how Pierre not only aeeced the
voters with Its gumbo town lots as
bribes but Aeeced the eastern people
who loaned them money to bribe those
who knew the Worthlessness of Pierre
property by repudiating it's obligations.
Pierre issued illegal bonds to the
amount Of something like $3.50. OO0..
The only bonds issued by Mitchell are
some water and sewer bonds for
municipal purposes to about half the
amount recently voted by Aberdeen
al told less than slOO,O 900. II small
indebtedness like that can bankrupt q
rich and prosperous city like Mitchell
for fifty years, Aberdeens issue Of
bonds will bankrupt her for hundred
and what of Pierre9 Looks like she
was bankrupt until Gabriel blows his
horn, doesn't it, She would be If she
evsr intends to pay her debts, that's
certain. Pierre and Hughes county
owe the state 100000 back taxes. II
Pierre has any money toepare she bet
ter pay up these taxes instead of buy
ing up newspapers at 500 to $500 each.
It is not too much to say that 81, 500
don't pay their newspaper contracts in
this county alone. Later will come
personal work in which Pierre will
spend every dollar she can rake and
scrape That is the way she won the
capital before and the only way BY
which she can help to win it this time.
Talk about q clean campaign! Pierre
doesn't know the meaning Of the word.
If both candidates for the capital were
to leave the question to the voters
without debate or the expenditure Of q
dollar, Pierre would be 80 badly beaten
she would not even be in the also
ram class. As 1t is, she is hopelessly
defeated and knows it. Already some
Of her oldest business men are pulling

ten years than in twenty-five with the

As the capital campaign progresses
1t is evident that the people who were
thinking of supporting Pierre from a
sympathetic standpoint are rapidly
changing their mindsl They have
commenced to look at the location of
the capital from business point of
view and they are reaching the conclu-
sion that the vast majority of South
Dakotans can best be served from now
and the future time to come with the
capital at Mitchell. Fourteen years Of
experience of travelling to an out of the
way place has big influence on differ
ence of opinion as to where the capital
should be, and the matter of sympathy
will not cut the figure in the vote ss it
was expected to do earlier in the cam
paign. It is not matter of sympathy.
Losing the capital will not iDjure
Pierre. The growth and developement
Of town is due to its citizens entirely,
and if Pierre wants to grow her busi-
ness men can make it. Capital remov.
al has been put on the basis of plain
business proposition and in this respect
Mitchell is getting stronger support
from all parts of the state every day.

who should be a bright, alert quick
Witted boy, who is capable of preserv'

laughter are going on all around him.
The players seat themselves in
circle and the leader takes his place
in the centre. He holds in Lis hand
q white handkerchief, which he has
knotted so as to make it partly solid.
When everything is ready the leader
tasses the handkerchief up in the all

it is due largely to the competition of
that club that the Myrtles survived a
period of stagnation and still live to
tell the tale of many glorious victories
as we'll as of several hard fought de-
feats. During these many years the
Myrtle club has ever been to the front
in the development of rowing in this
community, being living witness OF
the evolution of boat rowing in these
waters, as the heavy stationary seat
gig gave way to the sliding-seat barge,
which has in turn developed into the
up-to-date racing shell.
The present chief competitor of the
Myrtles is the Healani Club, which was
reorganized ON a new basis in 1895
under the name of the Healani Yacht
and Boat Club, and this club has be-
yond question proved to be the most
vigorous antagonist that the Myrtles
have had to contend with.
The first boat house of the Myrtle
Club was situated on the waters edge
at the foot of Alakea street above the
Pacific Mail wharf at a point now far
inland; subsequently a larger house
was built on the present site of the
navy docks. The house, which was Ia
ter enlarged, and which has been the
scene of so many jolly festivities, was
removed to a point Stewards of the
channel wharf, where with fine view
of ocean and mountains. and beautiful
ly clean bathing, the members enjoy
themselves and entertain their friends
in renovated and more commodious
quarters.
The record of the Myrtle Boat Club
is one that any organization might we'll
be proud of. Out Of fffty-one races
that the club has rowed against all
corners since it's organization, it counts
thirty-five victories and fifteen defeats,
one race having been declared on
A synopsis of the history of the club
would be incomplete without making
special mention of the great strokes
that have made the Myrtles famous as
winners of races; notable among them
are, Oscar Branch, Alfred Carter, Olaf
Sorenson and Willie Lyle; and of the
clubs captains, to whose patriotic and
thorough work the club largely owes
it's present prestige. In the latter list
we find the names of Torbert, Crane,
Angus, Judd and Harris.
