ages South Dakota Breedera.

ages South Dakota Breeders.
John ID. Hale, of Tilford, one of the
most prominent - stockmcn in South Da-
kota, some months ago received the con-
tract for furnishing the Eighth caval-
ry at Fort Meade with some 20 or so
horses. Notwithstanding that he visit
ed practically every prominent horse
ranch in western South Dakota, eastern
Wyoming and southeastern Montana
IN the effort to secure horses that would
pass the rigid inspection, every horse
so far turned in for inspection has been
rejected. The horses wea,e rhe very best
that could be procured, experience hav-
ing shown them to be the hardest ami
mails to be found in the United States.
Some of the horses could not be pur-
chased on the range or in the markets
of Chicago and New York for $3.50 each.
Mr.. Hale says he offered one man $500
for team OF handsome grays, provided
they passed the inspection. The ami
mails were submitted, but, while the
board admitted that they were a fine
looking pair, they were declared not
suitable for cavalry. Horse raisers are
discouraged at the result and say that
any board that holds strictly to the re
quirements of the government in the Sc
lection of cavalry horses would not be
able to get enough horses in the whole
United States to mount one cavalry
regiment.

In the Tolls.

Charley Llnkenhelt has again placed
himself in the clutches of the law by
an effort to sl2ash things in Mike
Speisshofer's saloon Monday night. 1t is
said that Fred Greenburg, who figured
in Saturday nights fight, was with him
and narrowly escaped being arrested.
Linkenhelt's trial occurred yesterday
afternoon.
1t is time these nightly turmols were
stopped, and there should be no "let up"
by the officers of the law until those
who create these disturbances are COM
PEELED to cease this imposition upon the
law-abiding citizens of our city. If q
man does not want to be classed with
lawbreakers, he should steer clear of
their company, for if, like poor Dog
Tray they are found assOciating with
those who create strife, they must ex-
pect to receive condemnation.

Eal,e Report.

1t was rumored on the streets Satur
that the firm of Nussbaum & Mayer had
assigned 1t was but a short time after
wards that reporter of THE INDE-
PENDENT discovered the actual facts in
the case. The firm has been unf0rtun-
ate for some time, owing, to large ex-
tent, t. the continued illness of Mr.
Nussbaum, who at the present time is
very i'll.
When the firm realized their position,
they at once made preparations to Sc
cure their creditors. They proceeded to
give a mortage for S17,260 to the First
National Bank and other creditors, the
mortgage upon property which invoices
some $4,000.
The people of Plymouth truly sym
pathize with this old established firm
of some thirty five years standing and
it is believed that they will in time
easily meet every dollar of their obliga-
tions.

We peruse the eloquence of the editor of

fairly breaks out in new role that of
Il humorist Previous to his last attack
upon the only independent paper in
Plymouth, the vials of wrath have been
broken over our defenselesS heads
which have caused great local disturb
ances in the bowels of the earth.
But now he comes To The front with
a new style more OH the bloomer order,
and gives conclusive evidence, that
somewhere IN his anatomy Is spot,
similar to the north pole, heretofore
undiscovered that produces glimmer
of sunshine toward his contemporaries.
The position of this oasis has as yet,
not been located, but there is not the
slightest doubt. owing to the recently
discovered XRays this minute spot of
editorial humor, will be recognized by a
long suffering community, along the
same lines that the down trOdden
Cubans have been recognized by our
intelligent congressman. That's right
Me, little more of this kind of spirit
and yoa will he recognized as a Bill Nye

REPUBLICANS MEET.
A Republican Club Formed Last >atur
day Night.

day Night.
At o'clock. Mr.. Ed. Brooke of the
Plymouth Republican called the meet
ing to order and proceeded to do bust
ness along republican lines.
Major Kendall was chosen as temp
porary chairman, and Mr.. Brooke secre-
tary. MIR. Kendall said there was not
time for speech making, and that they
should proceed to business.
At that juncture preamble was
read, which bristled with republican
ideas. 1t was unanimously adopted.
A motion was made by J. W. Parks,
that the club be known as the "Repnb-
lican Club of Plymouth.
Editor Brooke moved an amendment,
to the original motion, striking out the
one word Republican and inserting
Mckinley" W. T.. Bailey thought
they should first adopt the preamble
then proceed to take name.
After the adoption of the preamble
Mr.. Bailey said that In his estimation
Republican" was the proper name to
give the club. While Ex-Governor Me
Kinley was favored by the greater por-
tion of those present, TO be the standard
bearer of the party. he did not think it
advisable to name the club after him.
lie therefore moved that it be named
% fnh Of af.ay
Township" instead of Plymouth.
Brooke moved the old amendment,
the inserting the name Of Mckinley in
stead of Republican. The amendment
was lost by decided vote. The or
lgnal motion prevailed.
The club then proceeded to elect
officers. The name of Upton Schilt
was offered for the opposition of president
of the club. He was unanimously elect
ed. Geo. Gross was elected secretary.
A finance committee consisting OF w
j. Rankin, ID. l.. Dickinson and j. W,
Parks was elected, who will have
charge of the working end of the club.
A. Johnson was afterwards elected vice
president.
To make a progressive movement, a
collection was taken up. after which
some republican thoughts were present
ed by A. Johnson, j. W. Slider, Judge
Hess, w. +. Bailey, j. w. Parks and
Hon. NJ. W. SimonS. j. y. IOckey, of
Polk township was call upon and talk
ed few moments along the line of Re-
publicanism.
1t was decided to hold the next meet
ing next Friday evening, the place of
meeting to be announced later.
When the call for signers was made
some sixty names were enrolled.

ESCAPED FROM JAIL
A TRANSFORMATI SCENE AT
THE COUNTY BASrILE.
Cha>. Henry. Who Was Incarcerated for
Stealing Hat and Also Held as =
Witness. Makes His Escape

Ever since the late unpleasantness
when the representative of Southern
Confederacy took notable trip IN
petic0ats, it has been considered de
grading for a man to be discovered
with wOman's apparel ON. But it seems,
according to the evidence secured, that
Chas. Henry, who made his escape from
the county jail Friday night, had no such
scruples. AS near as we can learn, the
facts are these:
Friday evening sister of Henry called
at the jail to see him, as had been her
custom since his incarceration. Shortly
afterward another lady, who was sup
posed by the jail authorities to be the
sweetheart of Henry, also desired to
see him. She was also admitted.
The old gentleman who acts as turn
key claims when they desired to leave
the jail the two went out together. BE
that as it may; upon investigation it
was found that Henry had made good
his escape. The only feasible grounds
as to how he made his escape is, that
in the upper part of the building, where
he was confined, no light is burning;
and the turnkey being an old man, and
the hallway dark, it is conceded An
easy matter for the prisoner to slip by.
Another theory is, that one of the
women was let out 10y one of those con
nected with the Jail, and that was
Henry. When the others desired to go
ont and the old man opened the door,
the two women walked out.
Sheriff Smith feels very keenly the
position IN which he is placed and will
not spare time or money to put his
prisoner behind the bars again.
Chas. Henry was arrested last New
Years day for stealing hat, and,
although ne desired TO be tried during
the last term of court and intended To
plead guilty, yet the necessary papers
were not filed-the reason being that
they desired TO hold him as witness
against the men now in Jail awaiting
trial for the robbery of the Bergner
store at Donaldson.
