that could be done for the comfort
OF the crowd. Judge Scriber intro.
duced the speakers and did the hon.
nors in most satisfactory manner.
In the after noon the principal at.
traction was the ball game which
drew an immense crowd. The visit.
ing club was from Hot Springs and
proved themselves clever boys on
the diamond. The game was good
one for the first half or so when the
superior training Of the visitors
made them the winners.
After the ball game came the polo
match which was won by the Rapid
City team. During the game sew
eral of the horses slipped and threw
their riders. Bob Holcomb received
a bad fall but continued in the
game.
At night M. Company gave ball
at the armory which was largely at
tended and much enjoyed by those
who attended.
A number OF small races took place
on Main street during the afternoon
also, among which was the hub and
hub race which the Sweeney Hose
Company won from the Indian
school boys. During the day the
Indian school children gave a nun
Der of military drills that we're we'll
executed and brought forth much
applause. Congressman Martin and
Mayor Emrick reviewed the children
after the parades and our represen-
tative was very much pleased with
their maneuvers.
Tuesday a drizzling rain inter,
ferred SO that no sham battle was
had. In the afternoon another ball
game resulted in another victory
for Hot Springs.
A number Of the Indians started
for their homes Tuesday and Wed
nesday but enough were on hand
"Wednesday evening to give a grand
farewell dance in town which was
witnessed by large crowd.
Probably never before has there
been such large number of Indians
away from reservation influences
whose conduct was so free from
rowdyism or unpleasant disturban-
ces of any kind. During their sew.
eral days here their camp south OF
town was visited by many women
and children without escorts and
who were treated as we'll as anyone
could be. The Indians freely
mingled with the whites and visa

and candidate for this Office should
be above employing the methods
and trickery OF the unprincipled
office seeker. We regret to state
Mr.. Wilson has done these things.
In the first place he and few of
his wire pullers called primaries
at Hot Springs on TWO DAYS NO
TlCE and never published the no.
tice in a paper at all! The country
presincts never received the call in
time to attend the convention! Mr..
Wilson and a few personal support
ers simply made this call at an un-
heard Of short time and notified only
those who were in on the deal and a
few who were mislead by misrepre-
sentation. The result was he carried
the ten delegates. Over in Gus ter
County a call had been issued for
convention to nominate delegates
to the state convention. Mr.. Wilson
together with a number of thesCus-
ter judicial committee faithfully
promised members of our committee
that mo judicial delegates would be
chosen at that convention. In
spite OF this promise however, the
righteous Mr.. Wilson suddenly
sprung his little boom and managed
to railroad Custer's nine delegates
to his banner. The question that
naturally presents itself is, if Mr.,
Wilson thought he would be the
choice of his people. why did he not
give them ah opportunity to express
their desires. Mr.. Wilson knew
very we'll that the only way for him
to secure delegates was to either CO.
cree, juggle or mislead them and
he appears to have done q little OF
all of these.
How different indeed was the ac-
ton of the people Of Pennington
County. Openly and above board
the call was published in our papers
in ample time for our people to de.
eide on who would be their choice.
THETA choice fell upon Hon. c. L.
Lewis, a man of exceptional legal
ability and a man whose personal
record is above reproach, Mr.. Lewis
has been in the hands of his friends.
1t is his friends alone who are labor.
ing for him. On the other hand the
friends have been in the hands OF
Mr.. Wilson.
Pennington County has three.
fourths OF the legal work af the cir.
cult and is entitled to the nomina-
tion. We haYe that confidence in

versa. 1t was an inspiring though
somewhat amusing sight to see the
crowd of red and white faces stand
ing shoulder to shoulder watching
the sports. A frail and delicate
white girl might be seen standing
between two painted and feathered
braves, next to them would be a
white mother with her children who
was rubbing elbows with withered
and blackened squaw, etc., and all
intent on watching the performan-
ces.
During all the times the Indians
were here there was some sort of 4
native function going on out at the
camp. The council Of nations was
held and many curious sights and
performances took place. In fact
it was one grand dance and feast
from beginning to end. Most all
the Indians had some money and
spent it freely The city gave them
some $3.50 in money and the citizens
presented many gifts. A number
of Indian police were with the In.
dians and proved themselves police
in fact as we'll as in name by ar
resting and trying by Indian court
several minor offenders.
When the Indians left they ex-
pressed themselves as being we'll
satisfied with their treatment and
the city feels we'll repaid by their
presence, both by reason of the en-
tertainment they furnished and the
splendid trade the merchants en-.
joyed.

Mr.. WILSON'S METHODS

Tomorrow afternoon at two
o'clock the republican judicial con
vention will be held at the court
house in this city. Tomorrow the
republican candidate for circuit
judge will be chosen by the thirty
seven delegates who are entitled to
seats. Eighteen Of these delegates
are from Pennington Caunty, ten
from Fall River and nine from Gus
ter. There will be two candidates
for the nomination. Hon. G. L.
Lewis of this city and S. E. Will
son of Hot Springs, and the Union
regrets very much the necessity of
calling the honorable delegates at
tention to the very questionable
methods employed by Mr., Wilson
to force the nomination to himself.
The position of circuit Judge is and
should be a high and honorable one.

AS USUAL.

Fred Allison was before Judge
Scriber, having been accused OF
selling liquor to the an Indian and
afterward appropriating his horse.
1t was shown by two witnesses that
Mr.. Allison gave liquor to the
Indian. He admitted having done
SO, but claimed that he only let
him have it to carry it for him a
while. This looked so probable to
the court, especially as Allison had
a larger bottlefull on his person,
that Mr.. Allison was given his lib
erty. Journal.
If Allison admitted giving the
liquor to the Indian and the Judge
turned him loose in the face of the
admission and two witnesses to
prove it then Judge Scriber must
have been paclfied by possibly a
present. Why does the Journal
stop where it doesP Why not &c
on and tell what the Judge received
for the decision. Was it a bottle

The facts are the Journal bung-

that Allison handed quarter breed

ing on the horse. Upon getting
on the horse, the evidence showed
that the interpreter handed the
bottles back to Allison. This j:
the evidence upon which the Judge
decided the case. Some SIX Of
seven hours afterwards Allison
again came to town and got {
quart of whisky. He became
drunk and in a quarrel with the
Indians at the camp, was tiee
down by them and sent down t.

TIL INDIAN
CELEBRATION
=
HOW THE RED MAN IS
PATRIOTIC.
DANCE AND FEAST
The Largest and Most Unique
Celebration Ever Held in
the Black Hills.

This years celebration of Inde-
pendcnce day at Rapid City may be
recorded as the most unique, sue
cessful aud satisfactory OF any ever
attempted in this place. A very
large part of the credit belongs to
the Indians who came 1000 strong
and who we're always ready with
their peculiar dances, parades and
performances. They entered into
everything with spirit and enthu-
siasm that commanded attention
and admiration at all times and
proved the Indian a royal enter
tainer.
The performance opened Monday
forenoon with agrand parade headed
by the band and in which some five
hundred gaily dressed braves,
squaws and Indian school children
took part. The line of march in.

that everyone had an opportunity
of seeing the sights. At the court

minister, old Chief Yellow Owl was
introduced and delivered in Indian

The only arguments that we
have noticed so far advanced in
favor of retaining the capital at
Pierre are based upon the mere
hope Of Il future development. 1t
has to be admitted that Mitchell is
now nearly in the center of popu-
lation; chat nine tenths Of the
people are from so to 100 miles
nearer by rail to Mitchell than to
Pierre; that the growth and de-
velopment of the state so far has
only increased the advantages of
Mitchell over Pierre as conven-
lent center; that while Mitchell
has railroads leading out in FIVE
different directions Pierre can be
reached by only one line; that the
offer of the free use of a modern
building for a state house by the
city of Mitchell will be financial
advantage in favor of removal, as
a new building must be erected at
once if the capital remains at
Pierre. These are all advantages
that must be acknowledged in ia
vor of Mitchell. The argument for
retaining it at Pierre, therefore,
seems to be philanthropic ap-
peal for an assumed advantage to
be realized by our great grand
children. Yet even this advantage
seems to be chimericai. The fer
tility of the soil in the eastern por-
ton of the state, including the jim
river valley east, has from the very
first attempts at cultivation Deen
productive, and will, with proper
tilling, support family on every
40 acres. The trans Missouri
country to the west aud northwest
Of Pierre has so far never shown
any agricultural qualities that
would warrant the belief that il
will ever support one fourth thai
number of people, although crop
raising has been tried in a limited
way for twenty years.

The supreme court has decided
that the law raising the salary
Of the board of chari les and COR
rections TO $15OOis constitutional.
The attorney general held that it
conhicted with the constitutional
provision that the salary of an Of
icer can not be increased nor di-
minished during bis term Of Office.
The court holds that inasmuch as
the law changed the duties Of the
board it could also change the sal
aries. This decision practically
nullihies that clause of the con-
stitution, as il is very easy for the
legislature to make a slight change
in the duties OF any officer and
then either increase or diminish
nis salary at will.

One Of the matters that should
be considered by the stock breed
ers' association at its coming u eet-
ing in Mitchell is a plan for secur-
ing a stock exlilit at the st. Louis
exposition. The commissioners in
charge Of the South Dakota exhib-
itare unable to set apart any ade-
quate sum from the limited ap-
preparation at their disposal, and
an industry that brings to the state
from thirty to forty millions of dol
dars annually ought certainly to
be represented in our exhibit.
