THE BUILDING PROPOSITION

The court house grounds in this
city are deed to the county and
belong to the county just so long as
it is used for court house grounds
and no longer. So with the build
ing donated by Mitchell, it is loaned
to the state the same as the present
capital grounds at Pierre, and the
same as the court house grounds are
loaned to the county of Day. The
Reporter should not try to deceive
the voter this early in the campaign.

county paper.
The above is another ingenious
attempt to cry "Stop thief" and
then carry of the votes of Day
county on the capital question for
Mitchell before the voter realizes
that he has been held up and robbed
of his rights. There is nc such
comparison as the above possible.
The court house grounds in this city
we're decided to the county by private
parties who under the law have the
authority to deed away property
which they own for any purpose.
The same is true of the present cap
itol building at Pierre which was
built and given to state by private
citizens Of Pierre upon lands donated
to the state by a private corporation
The building at Mitchell is not owned
by individual citizens o a private
corporation, but by she City of Nit

learning, bat teaching them the
white mans methods of agriculture.
and instructing them in the various
trades. The female pupils of the
school are taught all the things OF
value to the housewife washing,
ironing, sewing, cooking, baking,
dressmaking and music.
And last, but by no means least,
the excursionists could visit the state
house that place hardly fit for
human ~habitation, etc. We would
have them visit the state house the
last thing before they go home so as
to carry home a lasting impression
of the building so as to tell their
neighbors about it. They would find
a large swo-story frame building sit
uated on the second bench, having a
commanding view in all directions,
see as beautiful state house grounds
as there are in this great union Of
states. Then they could inspect the
inside of the building. They would
find it properly lighted and ventil-
ated in all its many corridors, rooms
and halls, large and commodious
office rooms and vaults for all of the
state officers and members of the
supreme court, a senate chamber
sufficiently large to accommodate the
upper house of the South Dakota
legislature, and a very large hall for
the house of representatives which
itself would tell the story that the
present state house is large enough
and good enough to accommodate
the needs of the State of South
Dakota for several years yet to come.
hucll tue cAC~uIolOulSlS udd CulCiulil
inspected the present state house,
they would see that the building
which Mitchell offers free use of is
absolutely inadequate to aecommo-
date the state even at present; that
that the new building has not as
much vault as the present cap
irol building, that the officers would
be crowded and inconvenience, and
that the records would be less safe
at Mitchell than they + now.
In fact a visit to the two cities
would prove to every voter in Day
county who is unprecedented that
Pierre is the best city, is the best
located, has the best natural advan-
tages, has the best building, has thu
best grounds, and by all means and
in justice to the people of the state
at present and in the future is the
best place for the capitol.

and they have only n state lnsti-
tuition near this land and that is the
state capital at Pierre" The paid
exhorter for Mitchell came out the
next week with the following:
Look the map over carefully, and
reason for yourself, but do not get
10000 acres confused with the 100
600 acres, mentioned in the Reporter.
Now that is just what we would
have the readers do. Look the map
over carefully. When you are look
ing il over and computing your hg-
ures remember that the Mitchell
paper came as heal the truth when
it said 10000 acres of public land as
it has on all other issues relating to
the capital. Mitchell is fighting its
campaign with falsehood, but we
hardly expected that even Mitchell
would pay a paper 10 print such d
brazen falsehood as this 10000 acres
and then 90 farther and make the
bluff that it was true by requesting
the voters to look it up on the map.
But the bluff has been made and we
will now 60 with the voter as he
looks up the map. In the first place
no one will dispute that the counties
across the Missouri river are more
tributary to Pierre than they are to

Roosevelt

The republican national conven-
ton has finished its labors and the
expected has happened Theodore
Roosevelt has been nominated for
high office of president of United
States unanimously. A fitting reward
to a worthy servant of the people.
When Roosevelt was nominated for
the vice presidency we, like many
others of his most ardent admirers,
were very sorry. We saw then that
that nomination was forced upon him
by his enemies assisted by his over
jealous friends. BY his enemies in
hopes that the Office would prove in
his case-as il had done for so many
of his predecessors a retirement to
private life at the close of his term
and to be forgotten as a presidential
possibility.
But Providence decreed it other
wise. An assassin removed Presi-
dent Mckinley from this world, and
Roosevelt assembled to the high place
by McKinley's death made vacant.
President Roosevelt was Immediately
brought face to face with many and
the grayest of questions and ques-
tions that would have worked the
undoing of a less brave and shrewd
man. He rose to all emergencies.
He conquered all ob ,.acles. He set
tied all questions and settled them
ON the side of Justice and right. The
opposition to him among the money
changers Of Wall street saw the great
ray of popular approval surging
toward Roosevelt and tried to divert
its course TO some other. In ROose-
welt this great money center saw q
man whom their wealth cOSIld not
influence. He recognized no favor
ties but obeyed strictly his osfh Of
office. These money B0sners made
overtures TO the late Senator Hanna
to accept their leadership and come
out as a candidate against Roose-
welt. The senator was too shrewd q
politician not to see that Roosevelt
was the new idol OF the American
people and for kim TO try 10 divert
the public enthusiasm from Roose-
Welt 10 himself was but 10 lose that
confidence Of the people that he had
paid SO dearly 10 obtain and he
would not listen 10 the tempting
voices Of Wall street, but early in
the game announced that he, too,
was for Roosevelt.
The presidents enemies could find
no candidate that could give even
the merest shadow OF success against
Roosevelt so gave up the fight and
assisted in the nomination. Theo-
dore Roosevelt, though nominated
on the republican ticket, is the can
didate Of the great American people
regardless Of party affiliations and
his election will be by the largest
popular majority eve given a candi-
date for president.

Total 1897, 631.47
We ask the honest reader If it
would not BIZ but natural to refer to
that amount as seven hundred thous-
and acres? We want the reader to
remember that Mitchelps paid adver-
tisement about ten thousand acres is
in keeping with the other campaign
statements Of that city. We want
the taxpayer to remember that he
and his children are part owners in
this vast number Of acres of land,
and especially to remember that
when he goes to the polls in Novem-
Der he can vote increased value to
this land by voting to have the CAPT
tai remain at Pierre, OF he can foul
his own nest and vote value away
from his own land by voting the cap
ital to Mitchell. Vote for your own
interests, your children's interests,
the interests of the state generally,
the interests of this and all future
generations. Vote "No" on the cap
ital removal proposition.
