Farmers, remember 8. P. Chsndler's
auction at Belle Greek on the Goth inst. A
farm and stock are offered for sale.
Burnside Grange, P. Of H., had
splendid time at their Harvest Feast at the
new school house in Burnside on Tuesday
Of last week. We intended to be there and
then we could have told more about it, but
it was our day of issue, and we had to prac
tice self-denial again. We understand that
Rev. Levi Gleason made q very happy lit
tie speech, that gave much satisfaction;
songs were sung; the good things provided
by the provident matrons properly disposed
Of and everybody and his wife went home
feeling better.
-" Music hath charms to soothe the saw
age Breast" and E. P. Lowater is bound
to do missionary work by selling his mu
sical instruments in a way to bring them
within the reach Of all. He offers $4,000
worth Of organs, pianos, &c., in exchange
for wheat at $1.00 per bushel, affording
everybody chance to get a good price for
wheat and to make their wife and daughters
happy. +
1-Jennison's heart is troubled about\
that "lawyer-editor of the ADVANCE"
We have lived in Goodhue County since we.
were thirteen years Of age and
the farmers and everybody else
probably know as much about us as carpet
bagger Jennison can tell them. But Jen-
nison has more recently come among US
and might as well arise to explain now as
to put it off until he is older. We were
once told that he used to be cheap buffoon
%nd singer Of comic songs in the grog shops
okSt. Paul; we afterwards read his name
in st. Paul Business Directory, as a mem
Der of the St. Paul Bar, and suppo sed that
he was lawyerand that our first informa-
tion was slanderous. Since reading the
low sings at the profession Of law in the
last Republican we have thought that there
was misprint in that Directory and that
it was the St. Paul Whiskey Bar in his
character Of Buffoon and comic songster, to
which he belonged.
The incorporators Of the Savings Bank
met on Friday last and elected the follow
ing officers: President, T. B. Sheldon Vice
President. c. Clauson: Auditors, E. W.
Brooks and William Featherstone Treas
urer, J. s. Hoard. A committee was ap-
pointed on the purchase of safe and an
other on the obtaining of room. After
which. the incorporators proceeded to the
reading Of an extract from the GRANGE AD-
VANCE. which was found entirely satisfacto-
ry excepting the typographical errors. The
article after due consideration and discus
sion was unanimously accepted and is to
be kept among the archives of the corpora
tion, with recommend to the great militia
ry commander of "collsred" typos, to load
one barrel Of his shot gun with spelling
book, and let fly at the ADVANCE mans
Uranium instantly. On motion the bankers
adjourned. The corporation has good
Board Of Directors and will doubtless te-
come one of the permanent as we'll as one
Of the most useful institutions of our city.
Mr.. E. L. Baker has bought out the
stock in the Red Wing Mills of Messrs.
Howe. T. B. Sheldon, J. NJ. Hodgman, and
several Of the other heavier stock hold
ers, giving him about $4,000 of stock,
and hence control in the management of
the affairs Of the Company. Mr.. Baker
intends to make the operation Of this mill
his principal business, and the business
could not fall into better hands

Gentlemen:
Owing to q large increase of business
cares I am constrained to decline the nomi-
nation given me by your Convention on the
24th of Sept. Of Commissioner Of the First
District. Believing that it is the duty Of
every citizen to serve in any Office to which
he may be elected, without his own solici-
tation,-I have not felt At liberty to decline
until after mature deliberation am con-
frned in the belief that if elected the pub
lie business would suffer from lack of
proper attention on my part. Am pleased
