WORTHY OF

South Dakota has an organization
we'll worthy of the support of every
resident of the state for its ends and
aims have directly 10 do with the re-
sources of the commonwealth in a
way so practical that it annot fail
to be of interest 10 every one.
The organization referred to is the
South Dakota State horticultural
Society whose headquarters are in
Brookings. The cb.eci or mission OF
the society as set forth in the words
OF n. E. Hanson, its secretary, is 10
gather and disseminate the best
knowledge and experience concern
ing fruits. trees, shrubs vegetables
and flowers. To overestimate the
value of such knowledge spread
among the people now engaged in
turning this great state into a mag
nificent garden is we'll nigh impos-
sible.
Horticulture on the prairies has
received special attention in the re-
ports of the society which are issued
annually to its members. Through
the medium of these reports ii is
possible for the farmer, fruit-grower
or flower lover to plant intelligently
the varieties most suitable to the To-
cality in which he may reside. Their
use represents an actual saving of
time and money, yielding great har-
vests for small sowing.
In a circular recently issued by
the society, an invitation to Join IN
the good work by becoming a mem
Der, is extended to every one inter
ested in horticulture in any way. 1t
is hoped that a thousand names will
be enrolled in this splendid enter
prize during the year. Such an or
ganization which means so much for
South Dakota is surely deserving of
the most loyal support. The mem
bership fee is only one dollar per an
nun and a dollar could hardly be in
vested more wisely.

NOT WANTED HERE.

One of the moving picture shows
located in Deadwood is extensively
advertising as the principal attrac-
ton on this week S bill a pictorial
reproduction of a murder which oc-
Cured some time ago in the blue
grass country, aud whose notoriety
has spread far and vide owing to lhe
prominence of the persons involved
and sensational incidents in connec-
ton with it.
Opinion differs somewhat in a dis
cussion of the effect pictures OF this
nature have on an audience witness
ing them. but those who make a
study of such things unanimously de-
clare they are detrimental to the
morals OF the persons who view
them. Especially is this so in the
case of children, whose youth rem
ders them more susceptible to the
evil than those of mature years.
With these facts in mind it is the
side in this city that the managers
of the local picture shows refrain
from placing on their screens any
thing that appeals to the morbid.
This includes the depletion of muir
der scenes and certain Frenchiied
films that have been used on several
occasions lately. AS a city we can

Woman Suffrage in England,

n of the best illustrations of the
all-conquering nature of modern de-
mocracy is the victory Of the suffrag-
cites in England. 1t is not complete,
OF course; but it is as complete as
the time permits, and it was Won in
amazing short order by the nerve
and organization of the leaders Of
the movement. When British women
first began asking for franchise. the
house OF commons peered with owl
lsh puzzlement over its s~pectacles,
n called a policeman. The police
man came and the s]uffragettes were
led away to Jail. ut they came back
more numerous and more determined
and-if we may say it-more noisy
than before. This time the House
OF Commons called a policeman, and
an alienist as we'll. 1t was quite i'm
possible that we'll bred women should
act so, you know. if they were really
IN their right minds. But the alien

some ways; and never kicks against

are there. So it has adopted a resolu-
ton ~favoring woman suffrage, passed
the matter up to the lords. and set
tied back for rest.
what the lords vii do with the
suffrage question may easily be
guessed by referring to a record of
what they have done in every other
reform that found itself to be so
uhlucky as to be obliged to solicit
'helr sanction. They will stave it

years. lnded, they may never ac-

over will rejoice.
