VOTERS of Sherburne count,

VOTERS of Sherburne county, the
UNION does notpropose to dictate who
you should elect as Co. treasurer, The
Elk River Star would like to make it
appear as though the UNION was in
terfering where it has no business to.
This is = free country, a newspaper
has perfect right to aid friend, ev-
en- if that friend resided in Hong
Kong instead of in an adjoining county.
That right we propose to exercise,
we ask nothing for ourselves but what
we would willingly accord to others,
and whenever the Star sees fit to take
a hand in Mile Laos county politics,
why, let it pitch in. There are por-
tons of Sherburne county more close
~ identified with Princeton than with
Elk River. The Star is
live paper and is doing its
level best for Nickerson, and the UNION
will try to counterfeit the Stars in
fuence in this end of the county at any
rate. We have a strong personal
friendship for j. w. Libby, he is as
honest, upright good-hearted fellow
as ever stood in Sherburne county; he
is good.humored and courteous with
everybody, rich or poor. it makes no
difference, he treats them all alike; he
has got mind Of his own and cannot
be controlled by any clique or combin-
alton; his character is without blem-
ish; there is no man, woman or child
who can truthfully say that ever j.
w. Libby done them a mean act; he
is highly esteemed BY all who know
him =; and wherever he is personally
acquainted there he will get his heavi-
est vote; he can furnish a 500. 900
bond if necessary. Such q man is j.
w. Libby, and those who know the
man will bear us out in our assertions.
Voters Of Sherburne IS not such a man
worthy Of your sudrage9

The Peoples Conventionn which is in

nominated J. W. Libby as candidate for
county treasurer in opposition to Mr.. J. @.
A: Nickerson. He is no doubt popular in
Elk River, and well liked s0far as known.
The Star has not word TO- say against
him as an individual or as citizen >.
Those who know him do not doubt, that
J. W. Libby would be equally faithful
But even if J.. w. Libby should be elect
ed, from our knowledge of the man we are
satisfied that they could no more control
him than they can MIR. Nickerson.

Iakes, rivers, whole mountain ranges and tho
wonderful regions of the Yellowstone were all
before the eye as distinctly as II the audience

descriptive manner, gave an account OF the
earlier Indian civilization, and thought that the
Al0qul villages were similar to those ruins dis.
covered by stephens in Central America, but
they were further from tho centre OF their hig hest

were not 70 excellent. He spoke OF their pottery,

scenery and that OF the great park Of the Yellow.
