The matter Of granting licenses to
liquor sellers was submitted to the pco-
pie and the movement caused consider
able excitement. 4 Much of the cleo
tionceringl on tie part ofthosc in favor
Of granting licenses befag done in the
latter part Of the day by young man
that was we'll fired.up with the CONF
bustiblc, but not to such degree as to
prevent him from working with the H.
ceusc ballot in ono hand and the whis-
ky bottle in the other. The movement
tn grant "no license" carried the day
by eight majority, which is causing
great discomfort aud hcart-burnings
among the delirium trcmens candidates.
Considerable business has beef. done
in the line of insurance in this locality
within the past few days. A Mr.
Vosburs, Of Austin, agent for the Far
mer's Mutual Insurance Association
Of Minneapolis, wrote up an applica-
ton for nearly every farmer in the
vicinity.
The Continental Insurance Company
have recently paid the officers Of School
District No. l6 the sum Of ten dollars
for the damage that was done to the
school house 1T tho time that it to1k
fire FROM lamp explosion.
The people hereabouts arc on the
lookout for yc official Who is coming to
distrain their goods and chattcls for the
payment Of delinquent personal proper
~ taxes. In looking over the list
which has been published recently in the
TRANscR1rr We notice items Of taxes
which have been paid by the parties,
to the old ring treasurcrs, the name Of
ID. p. Putncy appearing On number
OF the receipts therefor rs deputy trca-
surer. Ii he n,istook his depleted
pockets for the public treasury aud
deposited the funds IN his own dilapi-
dated pocket book he can confer favor
o" the taxpayers Of the town by inform.
ing them what Investment he has made
with the money and at what per cent,
and when he will refund it to the
county.
The people residing in this locality
regret to hear that Mrs. Amelia Best
wick died on the last Of February in
the State Of Ohio whittier she Went d
few months since for the benefit Of he,
health. She had sudden attack o.
the jaundicc, from the effects Of which
she died. She was the wife Of Hon. s
Bostwick, and highly esteemed by 1
large number Of acquaintanccs.
The TnASscn1rr is eagerly sough
after by members OF the opposition
p"rty. 1t is doing good work anon:
them The officers Of School Dis:ric
No. II have adopted the plan Of read
ing chapter Of the wholesome trutl
found in lis columns, at their semi
monthly meetings. Whether they in
tend to keep up the practice Of spong
ing their reading in the future US il
the past, We are not able to tell.
