WILL NOT DISRAND.
Plymouth Church Congregation
Makes It's Decision.

The chapel Of the Plymouth Congre-
gatiOnal church was the scene of a
rather unusual and a very interesting
meeting last night. The occasion was
the hearing of the report Of the advisory
committee, consisting of President Cy-
rus Northrop, Rev. S. V. S. Fisher,
Rev. George R. Merrill, Rev. James
Strong, r. P. Herrick and Rev. J. H.
Morley, which was appointed a short
time ago to consider a statement Of the
condition OF the church and suggest
what was best to do under the cfrcum-
stances.
The statement as presented showed
a very discOuraging condition of af-
fairs. The main points were that this
church, which is the Oldest one Of Con-
gregatiOnal denomination in the CITY.
at one time had a membership of 500,
under the pastQrate Of Rev Mr.. Dana.
in 1884, but that since that time, owing
to the establishment of other churches,
this membership had dropped to an
active membership Of only $780, The
financial resources of the church had
been crippled to. a corresponding de-
gree and it was evident that it could
not continue ON its former scale
It was suggested to the committee
that the church do one of several
things, continue on limited scale, al
low deficit, if any, to accumulate as a

congregations.
The advisory committee was asked
to consider the above suggestions and
to advise what it's members thought
best.
The committee met Tuesday after
neon at the office of Rev. H. H. Hart
and elected President Northrop chair
man, and Rev. George H. Merrill
secretary. They considered the state
ment as presented and heard additional
information from the committee of
church members. After an informal dis
cussion it was agreed to meet the
church members last night The sub
stance Of the advice was told in the
Globe yesterday. 1t was as follows:
First-That the Plymouth church should
continue, for the present, it's work in the
present location, with new energy, fresh con-
secration and great hope of growth
Second-That in the future when the pres
ent property shall become valuable, the con-
ditions then existing should determine the
choice of a location for the continuance of
the work.
After hearing the advice the members of
the church discussed the various points, the
majority speaking in1favor of it. and on mo-
ton 1t was unanimously decided to accept and
adopt it. Resolutions were then passed thank
ing President Northrop and other members
Of the committee for the work that they had
would derive a great benefit from the ad-
vice and would eventually regain its former
position as one Of the leading churches of the
city.

PLAYING THE GAME.

Not the least remarkable feature Of
the controversy which is now going
on at Pierre, and generally through
out South Dakota, is the calm indiffer-
ence with which the peoples share in
the transaction seems to be regarded.
The legislators and politicians general
ly for and against Mr.. Kyle are play
ing the game of politics with great ac-
tivity and ZEAL 1t does not seem to
occur to any of them that they are in
public life for any other purpose, or
that the public has any rights which
a politician is bound to respect. The
state of South Dakota, if we are cor
rectly Informed, needs considerable at
tentiOn paid by her representatives to
her domestic affairs. There are a great
many things that the legislature might
do and ought to do to improve home
conditions, protect the rights of the
people and help develop the state There.
is no thought of that. Both Republi-
cans and Populists are too much alb
sorbed in their private affairs for such
considerations to appeal to them. The
legislative session has NOW resolved it.
self into a committee Of the whole to
punish or reward, as the case NAV be.
the men who voted for Mr.. Kyle's re-
election as senator
The senatorial election is over
and the issue is done with. KYLE
will be senator for the next six
years by virtue Of Republican votes
and in return for which he will sup
port Republican measures and policies.
Notwithstanding this, the Populists
exposed themselves to the snub which
was deservedly administered to them.
when they asked Mr.. Kyle for $500.
which he was to pay as their candi-
date, although all but half a dozen of
them refused to vote for him on the
test ballot. They cared a good deol
more about getting that $500 than they
did about Furnishing Kyle. He. having
the senatorship and the $500 both. was
decidedly in a position of ADVANTAGE
and smilingly referred them to Petit
grew. They then proceeded to Law
plans for getting even with him and
his supporters. They mapped out a
programme for the balance of the ses-
sion, which should consist, probably.
altogether Of bills that would hit some
individuals or interests represented by
them that supported Kyle Capital re-
moval bills and railroad tax bills and
lot more have been devised solely
for this purpose. On the other side. the
coalition that voted for Kyle will block
these measures and study retaliation
This is one of the best illustrations
in the country now of the game Of
politics "as she is played The av-
erage man in political life regards his
position as personal perquisite. and
considers it perfectly proper that he
should use it solely for rewarding his
friends and Furnishing his enemies. The
trouble with the whole country is that
politics has become just this kind of
game, remote from the science Of gov
eminent and at the very antipodes Of
patriotism. 1t matters little what par
ty is in power or what laws to advance
the purity of elections we may have.
AS long as this spirit prevails in pol
lt1cs and is tolerated by the people.
Government will be a game plaved for
the spoils, and institutions will wither
and decay

tachments that these gentlemen make
up their plans. Their supporters and
admirers are never weary Of berating
those who do not agree with them for
what they called the misuse of party
names. But here is Mr.. Towne, for
instance, taking nomination and
election as a Republican, campaigning
on a Democratic ticket before his term
was out and urging the election not
only Of himself, but of all the Demo-
cratic national candidates. and then,
after he, is defeated and still before
his public life, expires, signing a. solemn
address to Republicans and presenting
himself as a devoted member of their
faith once more.
If every party title is not to be a
misnomer, the advocates of free silver
should henceforth omit altogether the
use of the words i"Democrat" and RE
publican" ash applied to themselves.
They traverse without hesitation party
| lines whenever the silver question is
uppermost, and declare frankly on both
sides that all other questions relating
to party policy or the public veal must
wait until we have cheap and inferior
money. This they have right to do,
but they have no right to call it either
Republicanism OR Democracy.
The manifesto of the Republican sill
verites, however, serves an excellent
purpose in reminding, once more, men
who have always been Democrats, but
went astray on the money question, of
the nature of their future associations.
The national silver party is to be Re
publican in organization and officers.
! These gentlemen who attach their
names to the proclamation determine
to be first in the field, in order that, if
ever there should be anything to di-
vide from silver victory, they will
have the head seats at the table. And
they all profess themselves ardent Re
publicans, seeking the advance of that
party in every respect, save only on
| the money question. Their motive is
| doubtless, as it was when they origin
ally formed their little junta in the
| senate, for the purpose of bossing the
nation. While their efforts are rather
amusing than otherwise, the light
| which they throw upon the use and
misuse of party appellations is instruc-
| tive

AFTER PIE.

1t is the same old senatorial cabal
that comes smiling to the front to call
itself the silver Republican party of
the United States, and to name orr
own Charley Towne as it's representa-

United States senator's, who long ago
laid their plans to control the future
Of this government. The prospect is
not as bright for them now as it was

LIVE STOCK.
BREEDING YOUNG ARE

Young mares quite frequently do not
produce as fine colts as older ones or at
least the colts do not do 80 well while
young.
The cause of this, Gays an exchange,
is that, the dam not being quite ma
ture, quite an amount Of the feed she
consumes goes toward the building up
and maturing Of her body instead of
nourishing her youngster. This trouble
may be obviated, in most cases, by
giving the young mother better care
a0d feed than is necessary for the older
one.
Time is money" at our house and
we do not think it economical to wait
until FLIES are three years old before
breeding them. All the FLIES we ex,
pect to reserve for brood stock are
bred when two years old. They are
then systematically groomed, fed and
exercised. The result has been that
our colts cane large, well developed
and as spry as crickets.
We never wait to see how these
FLIES do alone with their colts, but
they r given the very best Of atten-
ton. The very best Of pasture is cup,
piled, With running water and plenty
OF shade, and in addition one or two
grain feeds per day are given regularly.
And what is the result3 Some OF the
best developed, most stylish colts we
have each season are from the FLIES.
In fact, they are most frequently supe,
rioc to the aged mares colts that re
ceive only the ordinary farm care.

CORN FODDER FOR HORSES.

II is sometimes asked whether shed
ded corn fodder is suitable feed for
horses.
AS an instance Of the practical use
of such feed for horses we mention a
horse farm near New York City, where
a large number of city board7rs are
kept.
Several acres Of corn we're allowed to
m Ature fairly we'll, and we're cut when
there was q lot Of color III the leaves
aud sap in the stalks, ana carefully
housed ia the hay nov.
A ST.. Adams shredder docs the rest,
aud tie manager, On EngIisbman of
extended experience, declares that he
has never known the equal OF this
shredded fodder in its cheapness and
( fl 3ctivenessi in carrying horses through
the winter. If some of the patrons of
this farm were TO learn that their high
priced horses were getting corn
stalks" they would doubtless object, az
they are in ignorance of the character
and value of this food when properly
cured and prepared; but to the condi
ton of their horses, when returned for
use, they can raise 10 obj c5ion, while
the economy OF shielded fodder adds
materially to the profit of the farm.
In further answer Of the question we
quote from q letter written 6 year ago
oY ''Eor5h Carolina" to the Country
Gentleman. The writer says: Il ha g

to be done by q shredder, still enabled
us to cut enough fodder in two hours

was shredded in splendid condition,
and the horses ate>it eagerly, leaving
the best hay for it.
"We think, from III experience last
winter, that it would be better to leave
the stalks in the field until they are
needed, as the work then comes on IN
the time when the hands are not en-
ployed, and two men q easily haul
and shred enough in n day to last a
month. Our brood mares and young
things are in splendid condition, and
the foals that come this year could not
be better"
