Quinn Goes Dry

Township elections were held in
the towns along the Pierre, Rapid
City and Northwestern railway
Tuesday. The liquor question
was submitted to the voters in all
the towns except Fort Pierre,
where the city election is held in
April. By the decision of the
voters, it will be possible for a
man to satisfy a thirst during the
coming year anywhere along the
line except Quinn. That place
went dry by a narrow vote of
IS to 38. There was a hot
fight on there, and both sides
claimed the victory up until the
last votes were counted. 1t will
be remembered, in this connection,
that it was the Quinn baseball
team that was made sick by drink
ing water at this place. and lost a
game with the local team on that
account. At least that is the ex-
planation given Of the affair by
our genial friend Of the .Courant
at that time. The Quinn team
will be made up this year of men
used to drinking water.

The last number of the Citizens
Lecture course was given in the
opera house last Friday night by the
Old Plantation Quartette. A large
audience was in evidence and its
appreciation and approval of the
entertainment was testified to by
the enthusiastic applause.
The Old Plantation Quartette is
carefully trained company of
singers. They can sing, and aside
from that they have some under
standing of what is really good in
the folk songs and old plantation
melodies of the South. In a word,
they show some indications of be-
ing artists in their line.
The programme was made up OF
numbers varying in excellence
from mere burlesque to the best
classics of the Old South. 1t is
not possible to comment on specia
features of the work done by the
different members of the quartette.
Whatever they attempted was
done we'll.
The Citizens Lecture course has
been a great success from every
point of view. The writer does
not hesitate to say that he looked
upon the project with considerable
doubt at its inception. Others
with us and even the most sanguine
members of the committee have
been agreeably surprised. A course
has already been announced fol
next year, and the committee
promise US better series of en-
tertainments even than they have
given US this year.

Baseball Activities

A meeting was held Saturday
night in the opera house for the
purpose of discussing baseball and
making arrangements to put a
winning team on the diamond dur
ing the coming season. A num-
Der of the players on last years
teams were out and with them a
few of the more enthusiastic fans.
The editor of the News was
elected chairman of the meeting
and Mr.. Hargesheimer secretary.
The meeting then proceeded to
elect Bob Durkee manager of The
team and Will Walpolc captain.
The matter of raising funds came
up for consideration, and several
suggestions were made regarding
a benefit dance or other entertain
ment, which the team proposes to
give sometime in the near future.
An executive committee consisting
of O. r. Hess, Ralph Lee, F. w.
Warner, Bob Durkee and Will
Walpole were appointed to take
charge of this plan and other
matters that are likely to come up
before the season opens.
There will be plenty of candidates
for this seasons team, and many
of them are men who played a
very creditable game last year.
Everything seems to Indicate a
successful season for the team.

Stanley County Death Rate High

The census department of South
Dakota has received the reports of
4,129 deaths in the year 1907.
There were reported II, ,097 births
and the difference, 6,968, is the
gain. The rate per 1000 based
on the census of 1906, is 9.4 and
if the present population could
be ascertained the rate would no
doubt be reduced to about 8 per
1000.
The disease most fatal is that of
pneumonia, 1856 victims falling be-
fore it, !. .a
Heart ailments 366; cancer car

single locality is found IN Stanley

preliminary hearing tended strong
ly to establish the guilt of the
defendant, and naturally the
authorities are making strenuous
effort to recapture the fugitive.
A reward of two hundred dollars
has been offered by the county
commissioners, but so far Clawson
has not been apprehended.
Circumstances connected with
the escape indicate that he had
outside assistance, there being evil
dence that a file and possibly a
heavy monkey wrench were used.
The whole matter is being thorough

Annual Township Meeting and
Election -.

The first annual township cleo
ton of Philip township was held
Tuesday in the opera house. No
great amount of interest has been
shown in township politics this
spring. No party has any local
organization and consequently
there is no machinery with which
to get the names of candidates
presented to the people for cleo
ton. As usual the interest in local
politics seems to be swallowed up
in the larger issues and conflicts Of
the presidential election year.
This is the first annual election
held in the township, the election
last August being a special election
Immediately after the township
was organized. The following is
the list of township officers elected
for the coming year:
Supervisors, F. E. Morrison,
Ira A. Miller and S. r. Reber;
town clerk, Alvin Waggoner;
treasurer, Byron L. Glow; assessor.
q. G. Wheeler, justices of the
peace, William Montgomery and
John Dunlevy; overseer Of high
ways, Jerome Earl.
A total Of one hundred sixty
votes were cast; not a bad showing
in view Of the fact that there was
no contest for any of the offices
except that of overseer of high

FROM EARTH TO HEAVEN
I'M on NV way to Heb ven

l. am on my way TO Heaven,
To that home so bright and fair:
Going to see my papa and mamma:
Precious loved ones, meet me there
| am nearer to my savior
Than | ever was before,
Going to see those shining angels
And sing Gods praise forever more.
When we meet the shining angels
In that bright and peaceful land
Calling for the other spirits
70 come and join our happy band
The judgment day Is coming,
We may all prepare to die,
So we all can meet our loved ones
In that home beyond the sky.
We may meet with many trials,
And our burdens may seem hard,
But if we will trust our savior,
We will sweetly meet our Lord.
When we have to part with loved ones,
OH It's hard to see them die,
But we think that it is better
For we can meet them in the sky.
BY and by we'll meet our Savior
And our loved ones gone before
And we'll sing Gods praises sweetly,
Where We'll dwell forever more.
We will meet our dear sweet mamma,
Who has left US here alone,
And the dear sweet face of papa,
Who is shining on the throne.
o, my dear sweet friends remember
We must all prepare to die,
If we hope to gain home in heaven
In that sweet BY and BY.
When we see the happy angels,
What rejoicing that will be.
| And we see the face of Jesus.
We will live and dwell with thee.
Well meet our friends and loved ones
In that heavenly home above
Open up the gates of Heaven,
We're in search of those we love.
When we gather up the river,
/ With the friends we love SO dear,
We all know that up in Heaven
There will never come a care.
O, the JOY of great salvation,
On that bright and blissful shore.
For we know when we reach Heaven,
We will never part no more.
Mamma sleeps that peaceful slumber,
In the grave so damp and cold,
Waiting to step into Heaven
When the pearly gates unfold.
Now to all I'll bid adieu;
am going over there
To that bright and happy land
Where there is JOY without tear.
Take my hand and heart, O. Jesus,
| simply give myself to thee
l am going to dwell in sweetness,
Through the long eternity.
