General Beadle the Pioneer.

The selection Of General William
Henry Harrison Beadle to deliver the
address at the laying Of the corner
stone Of the new capitol building was
exceedingly appropriate.
For forty summers he has watched
the Dakota prairies bloom and every
year his hopes found JOY in the grow
ing evidence Of coming glory.
Away back In 1870 when the writer
was publishing the old Union and
Dakotan at Yankton, Gen. Beadle
wrote an article which filled the en-
tire front page Of the paper, eight
columns, and today our glorious
young state has reached In wealth
and condition the prophetic prophecy
Of the General made thirty-eight
years ago with a courage and judy
ment that few In Yankton could fol-
low with hope. He was firm and en-
phatic In the prophecy and today he
enjoys the pleasure Of seeing it all
carved on the face Of nature. He
may have forgotten that wonderful
vision Of the future but he has never
weakened in the faith, and the
s1zADEI IS especially pleased that he
was selected to round out his forty
years Of citizenship by delivering the
principal address at the laying of the
corner stone OF the new capitol at a
point never dreamed of when Yank-
ton was the political and commercial
metropolis OF a vast territory, 1900
miles by river from Fort Benton,
Montana.
General Beadle was surveyor gen.
eral Of the territory In 1870, and the
only organized counties at that time
were Union, Clay, Yankton, Bon
HOmme, Lincoln, Minnehaha and
Pembina. His prophecy for territor-
iaI development took in every import
ant feature Of our present wealth and
development and about the only
thing he missed was the location of
the capitol.

the people Is supreme and this YER

extremely not contest by jury Of
nearly 10000 republicans. Both sides
won and both sides lost in the decision
OF the people, and the verdict must be
accepted as final and binding on all.

both sides and that bitterness will
gradually disappear as harmony grows
under the better Judgment of calm
and deliberate reflection. After all,
the gain or loss OF an office cuts but a

The ASSEMBLY OPEN.
Splendid Audience Greets the
Famous Robertson and His
Amusement Company.

Tuesday evening June 3Oth, the
eighth annual session of the Canton
Epwerth League Assembly opened
for a twelve day session with a splen-
did audience present to show their
appreciation of the event and testify
how much they appreciate the efforts
of the management to provide a sea-
son Of real amusement.
The weather has not been the best
for Chautauqua work but our people
realize that the Assembly must be
supported weather or no weather.
Superintendent Cave delivered the
opening address and gave the audi
ence some Assembly history, showing
that the patronage has just about
met the expenses, some years a little
over and some years a little under.
He spoke hopefully of the future and
asked for united action in support of
the best program ave presented a
Canton Assembly audience, and then
introduced Prof. Robertson, the popu-
lar and successful motion picture gen.
ius, who was greeted with genuine
manifestations of delight by young
and old.
Prof. Jones opened with a selection
on the piano and then came Prof.
Garretson, the slight of hand per-
former, who did some wonderful work
with bells and then played a couple
of scare jokes on the boys which they
enjoyed. Then came the real charm
Of the program when motion pictures
began to fly over the white back
ground. The pictures were amusing,
thrilling, wonderful, and every detail
perfect, and an audience of 1900 peo-
pie departed for their homes better
pleased than ever with the famous
Robertson.
Wednesdays program was simply
grand, beginning with the Schubert
Trio and a lecture by DR.. Search
morning and afternoon. DIR. Search
is Enthusiastically one of the ablest
and most interesting lecturers that
has been heard on the Assembly plat
form. His commanding appearance
and magnificent presence invites con-
tidence and interest and his manner
and style OF action is charming.
The Schubert Trio is one of the
best musical attraction on any plat
form, and our home people gave them
q splendid reception because one of
Canton's fair daughters, Miss Palma
is the pianist. Miss And
is an artist of exceptional abili-
ty and wins praise and renown every
where. The Trio is a magnificent COM
bination of musical talent.
The program for day and evening
the balance Of the session is full
Of charm and pleasure for all, and none
can afford to miss the afternoon and
evening sessions.
The grounds are in good condition
and tents are going up every day.
Every cottage is occupied and the
park Is once o the home of Joy
and pleasure.

Dtbrell Brothers make the following
review OF the Danvillc market for tbs
Week:
Our sales were good the first par,
of the week. but owing to the bad
weather the latter part OF the weels
for marketing tobacco, receipts fell of
considerably.
The character OF the offerings shows
but little change from what they have
been for several weeks past, excepting,
possibly good to fine wrappers wert
not in so good supply, All of the
independent buyers arc on tile market
and taking their share of the offerings
The buyers for the large companies
are also active bidders, which has q
tendency to keep prices up to the TOT,
notch.
Trade has been rather quiet In re-
dried stock during the past week. but
we hear of some little business that
has been done In this class Of tobacco.
Farmers are getting their plant beds
In shape for the next crop, and we
are OF the opinion that full crop
will be planted In the old belt Sec
tion. There Is stu some complaint OF
scarcity of labor. which may prevent
any large increase In the planting
