John Moede was taken from jail
at Long Prairie, Todd county, on Sat.
urday last by mob and hanged for
numbering man by the name of
Coldale and stranger whose name
was unknown. Moede confessed to
the Sheriff after he saw the excl
ted state of the crowd and implicated
his brother Michael in the tragedy.
There was no excuse for this lynch
ing and the men connected with it
are as guilty of murder as was their
victim. Instead of one execution in
that locality the Sheriff will probably
have a dozen or more on hand if the
law is faithfully executed.

like to have one or more correspondents

cality which would prove Of interest to
those residing at distance If they were
published, Don't hesitate to. write be
cause you lave had no experience in the
matter. ust send simple statement of
the facts l., as few words as possible and
we'll take : &c that it goes in the GAZETTE
in proper Shape. If your neighbor builds
a new barn or house, or breaks his arm
or his neck, or has and extra
large yield from his land, or is so unfor-
tunate as to lose any of his crops from
fire, or new people move in or the old
ones go away, let us know. If you are
too modest to write yourself get one of
your children to write for you and you
win find that it will put to practical use
what they have learned or are learning at
school. And if you can not comply with
either of the above requests, call to see us
when you come to town and tell us about
what is going on in your neighborhood.
No town will suffer by being we'll adver-
