Stevens County tribune. (Morris, Minn.) 1877-1880, 1878-10-24

For the credit of Stevens county,
we hope A. A. Brown will not receive
one vote. We cannot expect the same
result in other portions Of the district,
as there are some of the voters who are
under obligations to Brown--not from
any kindness he ever done them, but
he is in business and holds their notes
and mortgages, and they know what
the result would be were they to OPEN
~ oppose him. This county cannot
afford to endorse a man whose reputa-
tion will not bear scanning; and from
articles elsewhere quoted, it seems that
his past record contains nothing that
would recommend it to any honest or
fair minded person. The articles we
publish arc bona-fide; they are copied
from papers published in the district
where all the parties were known, and
consequently relate the facts. We
copy from. more than one paper so al
not to do Mr.. Brown any injustice, but
as all the articles show o bad state o.
affairs and if these were not facts-it ii
certain that some one paper would
have a word to his credit
Stevens County tribune. (Morris, Minn.) 1877-1880, 1878-10-24

The contest for representative is
now between Messrs. Sanford and Com
stock, and the prospects are that it
will be a close fight. Both gentlemen
are well and favorably known, and are
competent and reliable, and either
would be credit to this district. Mr..
Sanford has the advantage of being the
regular nominee, and having had his
name for some time before the people
This gives him decided start, and as
many Of Mr., Comstooks friends helped
put him (Sanford) in nomination they
Of course feel in duty bound to support
him. Mr.. Comstock. however, has
the advantage of being better known
in this part of the district, and if he
had been earlier in the field, would
have stood much better chance
Yet, he and his friends are actively at
work, and they propose to make up
for lost time. The friends of both
gentlemen are making a lively canvass
for their respective candidates, and we
predict close fight. Lately, nothing
has been heard of Barsness, and it is
not probable that he will poll vote
in this county.

The elevator agents state that the
proportion of No. 3 wheat being re-
ceived is less than at the commence
ment of the season. This is attributed
to the fact that the grain now delivered,
being stacked and going through the
sweat; whereas, large portion of
that previously delivered was threshed
from the shock. 1t is gratifying to
know that this is the case, and we
would suggest that as the farmers are
to blame, it might be well for Hodges
& Co. to ''shake them over h-l'' for
a while.
Stevens County tribune. (Morris, Minn.) 1877-1880, 1878-10-24


1t is probable that we shall have to
have some important legislation, the
coming season, in order to perfect the
title to the lands purchased from the
railroad company. 1t is a well known
fact that there is some difficulty in re-
gard to the lands on the line of this
road, and as far as can be learned, the
titles are not perfect. No lands are
being sold; no business is transacted;
hence, it is not improbable that the
legislature may be called upon to pro.
tect the rights of the settlers. Should
this be the case, it is necessary fer us
to have representatives whose reputa-
ton for honesty, integrity, and capa-
bility are unimpeachable. We must
have men on whose judgment we can
rely, and in whom we can place full
confidence. The regular nominees,
Messrs. Stone and Sanford, are both
men Of unimpeachable character, and
are fully competent to fill the positions
with credit to themselves and to the
people. The secondhand" candi-
date for Senator, A. A. Brown, is not
a man in whom we can place conf
dence, as his reputation is none of the
best, and as for Barseness, he is totally
incompetent, and his candidacy is but
farce. It is therefore evident, that
if we consult our interests in this mat.
ter, we must support the regular nom

The qualified electors of School
District No. l, must turn out in full
force at the next meeting. So much
feeling has been stirred up in this mat
ter that it is necessary to take prompt
and decisive action, and thus settle the
question. If we are not to have the
school house, it is better to SO decide.
Ifthe action taken at a previous meeting
meets with the approval of, and is rat
flied by majority vote that will effect
ually dispose of the matter. In either
case it will be advisable to have full
house, as whatever action is then taken
will be final, the minority being CON-
PEELED to acquiesce.

Browns Record.

North Star.
Since the convention at Alexandria an
old chronic candidate has come to the sur
face in the person of A. A. Brown. He is
always up fer some Office and if the PEG
pie do not put him up he is sure to come
up himself. We think the masses of Big
Stone county can do no better thar to give
their support to Mr.. Stone, and we anlici,
pate that the masses outside of OrtonvilAe
will give him such support.
Swift Co. Advocate.
Capt. A. A. Brown, of Alexandria, is an
independent candidate for the State Senate
against Hon. ii. w. Stone, OF Morris. In
our opirion the people should stand by Mr..
Stone, for it will be a credit to the State as
well as to that Senatorial district to have
such men as Mr.. Stone in that body; and
besides A. A. Browns record in the New
Ulm Land Office is such that it would be
no credit to the people of that district tc
be represented by him.

Some parties who participated in
the republican convention, and who
thereby helped place Mr.. Stone in
nomination, are now endeavoring to
defeat him. This action is not honor
able, and we would have these gentle
men understand that the republican or
ganization in this county is on firm
footing, and such reprehensible conduct
will bar them from future participation.
They should remember that this coun-
ty is not what it used to be, and it is
beyond the power of one or two men
to control it.

ness, and of this we are glad, as it will

he did know Ellis, or G. A. Brown, but
that he was employed by A. A. Brown the
Receiver. That is a pretty good idea for
Brown, a man who published statement
that he had DO interest in the land
The facts of the Wass land robbery is az
follows: Wass, Scandinavian, of Disco.
bought claim to 80 acres of land from
Charles Gustafson. he took Gustafson's
release of the claim and went to the New
Ulm land office, and paid A. A. Brown the
fee of SIG, and took his receipt. Brown
told Wass, that Gustafson's abandonment
would have to so to Washington, and as
soon as it was returned, he would notify
and send him filing papers. After long
delay, Brown wrote to Wass that one Gould
Olson had taken the land as a soldiers
homestead, and requested him to forward
an affidavit (Which he enclosed) to the Gen.
eral Land Office, and told him he thought
he might hold the land.
Shortly after sending the Affidavit, which
Wass forwarded to Washington, this same
Receiver Brown sent to the Register of
Deeds of this county the. government pat
ent to Gould Oleson, and deed from Ole
son to Canute Brown, a brother of Re
ceiver Brown, of this same piece of land
for record.
Wass soon learned that he had been
swindled out of his homestead, and that
he had no remedy. Wass had built a
house and granary on the land and other
wise improved it to the value of $500 or
$500, all of which he lost.
The facts of this case, we are credibly
Informed, were LAID before Hon. Mark H.
Dunnell, over year ago, and he promised
investigate the matter, and if the facts
were as stated he would have Brown re-
moved. Brown, however, still holds the
office.
1t appears from the facts and circum-
stances that while Brown was advising
Wass he quietly went 10 work and robbed
him Of his home.

ANOTHER OUTRAGE.

<ANOALHAh OO1haUE'
Some years ago, Benedicht Herrli, Ger
man American, bought claim of Thos.
Hyatt, of Blooming Grove, consisting of
81 acres of land. Herrli is a poor man
with large family of children, whose wife
was insane for several years and finally
died last fall. He worked hard to improve
the place, being compelled to grub and
break much of the land by hand. AS he
was not familiar with the laws of the land,
he neglected to file on his land for some
time. Something over two years ago he
wrote to the land office to learn what was
necessary for him to do in order to perfect
his title to the homestead. A. A. Bro WI
wrote to him directing him to go to GER
tain attorney in Owatonna to whom he
could pay the required fee and by whom
all necessary papers would be made cut
Herri went as directed and paid over his
money. Sometime afterwards, not hear
ing from the land office, Herrli again sent
a letter to Brown, and Brown replied THAT
the papers had been received all right, and
that duplicate would be forwarded in due
time. The papers never came, and on the
Goth day of May last, A. A. Brown, Re-
ceivcr, sent to the Registers office in this
county, government patent, issued Nov.
23d, 1875, to one John Ellis, covering
Herri's land, for record This was SOL
tiers homestead patent, and accompanying
it was deed from Ellis to Canute A.
Brown, brother of the Receiver, also for
record. ~
Here is poor, hard working man, with
a large family of motherless children, swim
died out of II home upon which he has
toiled for many years His loss cannot be
less than 81, 900, and it is his all.
Now, we would ask the voters Of
this district, if it is not piece Of bra
zen-faccd presumption for man with
such a record, to come before them
and ask for their support. Voters,
can you conscientiously support such a
man? Would it not be equivalent to
countenancing dishonesty in its very
worst form, for you to support man
with such record! The foregoing ar
ticles are true, and neither Brown nor
his friends can deny them; they are
facts furnished us by men who know
his record, and consider it disgrace
that such man should be tolerated,
to say nothing of his being openly sup
ported. We state nothing we cannot
prove, and any who are not satisfied,
have only to come to this Office and be
convinced that what we publish is only
what has actually transpired. We ap-
peal to the voters of this district, and
ask them, as honest, upright, conscien-
tious men, to completely ignore this
mans candidacy; it is the only way tc
rid yourselves of him. as it would show
him conclusively, that you will not sup.
port man you cannot trust.
