PATRIOTISM In THE
CAPITAL CITY DISPLAYED

One of the largest aud most enthus-
iastic gatherings of patriotic citizens
to be held in the state took place IN
the Capital City last evening, when
our ever loyal citizena responded to
the call OF Mayor Borst for a patri-
otto parade and meeting at the Audi
torium, which was taxed to it's full
capacity.
The line of march was formed in
front of the court house, Major Beck
/ with heading the Capital City band.
Company A, S. D. N. G. of this city
and members of Company 1 of Rapid
City, stationed here on guard duty,
then followed and made a fine show
ing. The Sons of Veterans carried
the mammoth American flag and were
followed by the G. A. r.. The young
men of the Indian school fell in line
and a number of young men carrying
Old Glory in all her beauty brought
forth cheers from the crowds which
lined the streets. The local fife and
drum corps, the w. r. G.. and the
citizens, four abreast, concluded the
marching line.
Upon their arrival at tho Auditor
iIm patriotic selections were given
by the band and fife and drum corps.
Mayor Borst then introduced Rev.
Edwards, who pronounced the invo.
cation. The principal address of the
evening was made by Attorney Fl. G,
| Fuller, whose talk held the audience,
with frequent applause. Short talks
were also made by G. Fl, Anderson,

AN OLD GUESS

OF late Germany has shown a de.
sire for colonization in the Pacific,
AND England, more than any other
power, could thwart or help that
wish; besides.Germany must know
that England's humiliation would
destroyt the balance of power in Eu.
rope and give Russia too great a pre-.
p~ondUrance. France, most likely,
would remain neutral; IL she took al
active part, with Germany allied to
England, she would be with Russia.
The republic has not yet forgotten the
tall ofthe Empire. Thus would stand
the combatants: Germany against
France; England, Austria and Italy
coping with Russia; the theatre OF
VAT being both Ii Europe and Asia.
Sooner or later this war will come,
i WILL be q mighty foe. Europe has
been at peace nov for q long time.-

Many people labor under the impress
sion that Luxemburg is a part of Ger
many and that it, too, is at war with
the United States which is quite a
wrong impression. Luxembourg has no
connection with Germany, more than
has Holland or Switzerland or Denmark
all of which border on the German ed

taking that action as to mail for Lux

Henley and Stevenson.

W. e. Henley once met Robert Louis
Stevenson and found his friend dis
tressed because he was not a voltaire
or a Dumas, though he had an equip
ment which ought to have made him
their peer. Stevenson put his Failure.
down to the weakness Of his lungs.
Perhaps you are right, Louis" said
Henley. 1--WE always felt that If I had
not been a blessed cripple l could have
taken the earth in my hand and hurled
