NAMED THEM OVER AGAIN

right rendered their designations, not
that they were not i'm sympathy with
the continuance of the corn palace,
but to give the league officials an Op-
portunIty to make any changes in
the board they saw tit for the bet
termept of the corn palace commit
tee. The league officers considered
that in these gentlemen they had a
board which would make Of the corr
palace as great a success possible and
accordingly was unanimous in the
Ieappointment of the gentlemen.
There was some discussion relative
to the new corn palace building for
1905, and it vas evidently the in
tention Of tine committee to com
Eletely change the building into one
larger and better than the present.
Architect Wherry has in course of
preparation some plans that are a
combination of a building entirely
suitable for a corn palace and for the
stock show. When the stockmen
come to Mitchell the first of next
month the plans will be shown them
in blue print for any changes they
might desire.
In the course Of a few lays work
will be commenced on arranging the
interior of the corn palace for the
coming exhibition and stock sale
Feb. l, in the making of the stalls
for the cattle and arranging for IL
show ring and amphitheatre Short
ly after the stock show is concluded
it is the idea to tear down the corr
palace and seek a location which will
meet the requirements OF the en-
larged building.
