Took in Taft Meeting.

VIM. Ii. Doherty returned Tuesday
from his trip to Huron, where he attend
ed the gathering of Taft republicans.
While there. he was made member Of
the executive committee for Perkins
county. He also secured pledge
from the convention that one of the
electors of the presidential electoral
college should be a Lennon man.
Even without the testimony of Mr.,
Doherty. the public has learned with
satisfaction that the meeting at Huron
was one to be proud of. Over four
hundred delegates from all parts of
the state were on hand, to help amid
the best ofharmony to launch the Taft
campaign in the state, and to go on
record that the states best sentiment
is lined up for Taft for second term.
The gathering was made of added
interest in the attendance of Secretary
OF Agriculture Wilson, Sen Gamble
and congressman Burke and Martin,
and in voicing solid sentiment for
President Taft as the standard bearer
Of republicans

the seed grain at the price at
point of loading, so that the
farmer will get the benefit of the
free freight.
The counties east of the Mis-
souri, to which the free rate ap-
plies are Faulk, Edmunds, Nc
Pherson and Walworth. This
concession means much for west
ern South Dakota, for it enables
the farmers to get free of freight
charges the best seed grain in
the northwest. The free rate
will go into effect in a few days.

Adams Co. Commissioners
Provide for Seed Grain.

At there recent January session
the commissioners of Adams
county took the necessary steps
to furnish seed grain and potatoes
to needy farmers Of the county.
Provision is to be made to supply
not only wheat, barley, corn and
flax. but also potatoes.
The requests made that every
farmer carefully plan his sea-
sons planting with a view to
secure good results, if the sea-
son broves fruitful, but at the
least possible burden upon the
county. Thus it is advised to
order only as much spring wheat
as can be properly seeded the
early part of the season. There
is no use to seed wheat late. and
at time when barley or flax will
prove safer cro1s.
The county commissioners and
Auditor Walter F. Kelly will be
at Lennon on Saturday of next
week, January 20. at which time
they will receive the petitions of
farmers for seed. The place Of
meeting has not been determined
upon as yet, but will be easily
found upon inquiry on the day
set.
Let the good news be passed
around from mouth to ear, so
that all will be informed as to
the date of meeting. The county
commissioners may possibly ap-
point someone here to receive
orders later than Jan. 20 on their
behalf, but there is nothing sure
of this it is urged that all be on
hand to confer with the board at
that time.
The commissioners, with Mr..
! Kelly will also meet for the same
purpose as follows: At Reeder,
Wednesday Jan. II; at Bucyrus,
Thursday Jan. 19; at Haynes,
Friday Jan. 49,

South Dakota'S Gold and
Silver Output in 1911

The principal gold mines of the
Black Hills, according to Charles w.
Henderson, of the United States Geo.
logical Survey, were steadily operated
in 1911, and a heavily increased yield,
only slightly below that of the record
year, 1908, was the result. The Home
stake mine, which produces each year
the bulk of the gold bullion from this
State, at the beginning of the year
had completely overcome the labor diff
ficulties of 1909-1O and was again OPP
Grating at the full capacity of its plant
of l 900 stamps with cyanide, sand, and
slime plants. The other large proper
ties were correspondingly active.
Of particular interest in the north
ern Black Hills are the progress on the
hydraulic-electric plant of the Home
stake Co.: the building at Galena of
the new Osterman- Danckwardt pyritic
smelter, and of the Gilt Edge Maid con-
centratipg plant; the proposed increase
in the capacity of the Golden Reward
cyanide plant by the addition of a
roaster; the open-cut mining and low
costs of the Wasp No. , Co.; the build
ing of the 800 ton cyanide plant of the
Bismarck Co.. and the testing of the
deposits of zinc ore near Deadw BOD
The operation for five and half
months of the first dredge in the Black
Hills, at Mystic, Pennington County,
and of several properties near Hill
City, Keystone, and Oreville were the
principal features of interest to the
mining industry in the southern Black
Hills.
According to preliminary figures
compiled by the Director of the Mint,
South Dakota produced in i9l' 81, 430 :
367 in gold and 206. lSS ounces of
silver, valued at Sll3. 403, against
s5, $50, 200 in gold and l2o, 900 ounces
of silver valued at s65, 100, in 1910.

Will Render 1.-THE Messiah. .

The singers of the village of
Reeder, led by Mr.. Jacob Hort,
will on Sunday, Jan. 2l render
the glorious oratorio. HandePs
Messiah" 1t is something of
a compliment to small COM
munity to attempt work of so
high character, and Reeder
may count itself as standing
unique among musical centers,
in that it's people with limited
resources and forces dare to
render this great work.
A chorus of fifty trained voices
will render the choruses, among
them the grand Hallelujah
chorus, propably the most noble
tonal triumph ever conceived
solofty, that at it's first rendition,
at Covent Gardens, London, in
1743, it's grandeur compelled the
king, and the entire audience to
rise in mute respect.
The solo numbers will be sung
by the following artists: So
prano, Nine. Emma Theoline Loe-
Skaug. of Ipswich, S. d. Con-
tralto, Miss Edyth Bergh, Of Het-
finger. Tenor, Jacob l.. Hort,
of Reeder. Bass, J. +. Paul

Free Seed Grain
Shipments Secured:

DR.. W. G. Smith, a member OF
+bn state board of railroad COM
missioners. who has just return
81 to the state from Chicago. has
brought the people OF that part
Of the state lying west OF the
Missouri river, and of four coun-
ties lying east Of the river, asub-
stantial New Years present, in
the form of free freight rates on
seed grain which will be needed
for the coming season.
The railroads which have con-
sented to grant free freight rates
on seed grain hauled to those
portions of South Dakota men,
toned are the Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy, the Chicago &
Northwestern, the Fort Pierre &
Rapid City. the Chicago, Mil
waukee & Puget Sound. the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and
the Minneapolis & St. Louis.
In discussing the securing of
the rate DR.. Smith said: For
the past few weeks have been
working at the request of the
commission for free seed rates,
and can say chat the greatest
obstacle to getting the same has
been the laws. How to grant to
any one but paupers without con-
ficting with the federal laws,
when you have to ship largely
Interstate from Minneapolis, and
finally We had to adopt, so as to
comply with the laws, the plan
of shipping direct to county com
missioners west of the Missouri
river who can under the cd
statute buy seed grain, distribute
to the farmers and the cost OF
the seed becomes a first lien or
the growing crops"
After enumerating the above
railways which have granted the
rate he stated that they have
agreed to haul to county com
mlssloners in the counties tribu
tary to their lines west of tht
Missouri river in car lots, free
Of freight charges, seed grair
from Minneapolis and points OF
their lines in eastern South Da
kota, who will buy and distribut,

was to have been played In st. Louis
