cut down its distance from the CEN
ter OF population.
1t is natural and proper for Mitch
ell to point with pride to what she
has to Offer in the way of "a city aside
from her accessibility and railway
facilities, but she draw no invidius
comparisons in this respect With
| Pierre or with any other of the many
nice towns and cities in the state.
If Mitchell desires that her many
advantages as a place OF residence
and public utilities become as we'll
known as her central locations are
interpreted by a few people, and pro-
wncial editors in Miner county, as
an intimation that Pierre people
wear hair on their teeth and feathers
on their toes and live in tepees, it is
due to the remoteness Of that town
from the line of travel and the
baunts Of men prohibiting a better
acquaintance. The finest and best
city between Winnipeg and Van
couver is way out just this side Of
the Rockies, but for hundreds Of
miles around it there isn't a farm or
settlepent-iust grass and fat cattle.
The fast that a free excursion ticket
is necessary to bring a citizen in
conjunction with the capital of his
state is a sad commentary on the
judgment of those who located it.
1T is particularly distressing when
such an inlucement was necessary to
bring understanding to n who is
supposed to have knowledge sufli-

Pierre's small army OF boomers
may continue to run in train loads

landing FROM midnight to 800 a..
m. and sending them away two
hours before daylight-but it will
not hide the 1865 acres of vacant
government land in the country of
which Pierre has been the capital
for fourteen years. She a give her
visitors free rides and free baths,
but it won't cover the fact that
eastern land owners are advertising
thousands of acres of 'schoice Hughes
county farms'' at 81. so an acre, some
Of them "within five miles Of the

her excursionists within a good many
ways, so that between their light
and the charity Of darkness
it will never be known that in the
fifty odd miles from Highmore to
Pierre there isn't a grain elevator
or warehouse and never has been
but she can't get away from the
fact that:
Nine-tenths of the people Of the
state have to go to Wolsey to get to
Pierre, and when they get to Wolsey
they are tifty-two miles nearer to
Mitchell than to Pierre.
Which is another pat quotation
from "Dad" Olson.

PIERRE KNOCKING THE STAT

Webster World: Pierre is SANDER
ing South Dakota. Pierre by Its
Misrepresentation is knocking the
whole state. In attempting to mis-
lead the voters to believe that the
land west Of the Missouri is as good
for farm ing purposes as the land in
the eastern part Of the state Pierre
is giving a black eye, SO to speak
TO the entire state.
This is beginning to be realized by
the real estate men who come in
contact with outside investors, resi-
dents OF Iow1, Illinois and other
states from which the eastern part
of the state has been getting the
bulk of its immigration and which
are dependent upon for future i'm
migration.
The real estate men are now begin
ming to realize the evil effects OF
Pierre's campaign Of deception, and
the land owners liz this part of the
state will realize that Pierre is a
knocker that must be reckoned with.
a real eSate man from this section
of the state while in Iowa a couple Of
weeks ago advertising this part Of
the state, was informed in several
instances that it was useless to at
tempt to interest anyone in the To-
cality as after the Rosebud drawing
several had gone over the land west
of Pierre, and lately they had learned
through several South Dakota news
papers that the land IN the eastern
half OF the state was no better than
the land west OF the Missouri river
and that they would not care to
look 1t over.
The taxpayers OF eastern South
Dakota have good naturedly consid-
cred this comparison of their fertile
farms with the uninhabited quarters
west vi Pierre As a necessary part
OF Pierre's capital campaign, but IL
1T is going to result in a depreciation
OF land values, they are going to re.
SSho oASh comparisons anu COJSIUCI
them as a SANDER to the state.
Pierre ear not deceive the voters
of The state, but Pierre can deceive
the residents Of other states and in so
doing they impure the entire state.
1t is not necessary to attempt to
deceive the voters. Ex. governor
Andrew r.. Lees %0ninion nm that
proposition is worthy of considera-
tion. He says: "rhe removal of
the capital will not cause the lands
lying west of the river to decrease i'm
value any more than it has caused
them to increase. Farmers settle
upon land on which they can live,
and it is not to the advantage of the
to get settlers bY misiepresen-
