The highly favorable results already
attained by Mitchell in this contest is in
great part due to the efforts and lib.
erality of her "capital committee"
comprising among its members the best
business men in the town and number
in business and political circles. This
committee is composed of the following
gentlemen. a few of whose photos Eere
grace the columns of the GLOBE: A.
Nj. BoWdle, vice president First Ma
tional Bank, one of the most successful
business men of South Dakota; A. E.
Hitchcock, one of Mitchells leading at
torneys; Hon. T. F. Mentzer, an able
and successful lawyer, and one OF the
delegates from this city who, in connec-
tion with III. G. Preston and Hon. A. j..
EdgertOn, made the capital fight pos
sibility by their efforts at Washington
during the last session of congress:
Hon. A. j. Edgerton, one Of the ablest
statesmen of South Dakota, eX-chlef
justice of Dakota's supreme bench:
James E. Foster, eX-commissloner OF
immigration and leading real estate
dealer; M. II. Rowley. president OF the
Security bank and register of the Uni

these men are spending their time and

that their faith will witness success.

StraWberrY Culture.

Any good soil prepared as for rails
ing vegetables, will produce straw
berries. There are various systems
of cultivation, One is where plants
are set out and allowed to grow until
the ground is covered with vines.
This is the shiftless way. A second
is the alternate strip system which is
excellent, Rows are struck out three
feet apart. All runners on one side
of the rows are allowed to grow and
take root, while on the opposite side
they are cut off. In this way every
alternate strip of three feet will be
covered with vines which will give a
crop of berries, while the bare strip
will serve as an alley for the pickers.
After this crop is over dig up the
alley and next season permit the rum
ners to cover and take root in it. At
ter this seasons crop is gathered, dig
in the old plants, and so on, digging
up one side each year. AT the time
of setting the plants and at each an
nual digging, a liberal coating of ma
nure should be dug in. This should
be well rotted. Next is the biennial
system, and with many is popular.
1t consists in planting beds, three
rows, eighteen inches apart each way :,
and paths two feet wide. Hoe the
plants, weed properly, let the rum
ners grow, and after the bed has pro.
duced two crops, dig or pillow it up.
and plant in a new place. The an
nual system is the same. except that
the plants are put a little nearer to-
gethnr, cultivated the first season,
bear the second, and are then plowed
or dug under. The best time to plant
is in April or May,

Has it ever occurred to the citizens
of Oakland that the colored people OF
this town are absolutely without any
Christian privileges or means ofgrace?
Some may say our church doors are
open to them! But it is an obvious
fact that they, feeling unwelcome, or
not at home, In the white churches,
would throng to one of their own. or
to any appointed place where religi'
Gus services are held especially for
them.
Again throngs of bright little col
ored children roam around on the
Sabbath day that should be gathered
into a Sunday School. They have
souls to save and characters to mould;
this is the period to instill principles
of honesty, morality and religion.
Vino will undertake to start this
good work? Who will volunteer to
assist ? Some suitable building might
he procured; the ministers of the
different denominations, by turns
hold divine service for them, and

carried on in the same place.

fight against coming into the city.
While the official vote from all the
points has not vet been announced,
there is no room for doubt, from the
figures received, that all the suburbs
named have been carried by the an
nexationists,
The various towns to Chicago add
additional population of nearly 200,-
600, bringing the total up to probably
100000. The territory.annexed will
give Chicago total area, approx.
