Well, Floyd Settlement is up and boom

would have been satisfied; as it is we are
not. Now US Wadena has left lis out in the

COM MPTON.'

From our own correspondent:
G. L. Ramsdell goes to Fergus Falls this
week to prove up on his homestead, accom-
panied by George McQuillin and Truman
Robbins as witnesses.
A very enjoyable entertainment was given
last Friday evening by Mr. and Mrs. William
hanlove. twenty-five people participated
in the festivities, which consisted of parlor
games. singing, taffy, and, last but not least,
some genuine, old-tashioned pumpkin pies,
with other refreshments. After vote Of
thanks to the host and hostess, good .nichts
were interchanged and the company sepa-
rated.
1t is generally conceded that a man is
about as mean as it is possible to be when he
cheats hired girl out of her wages. This
being the case, there is man not thousand
miles from Wadena, who deserves medal
tor being emphatically the meanest man we
know OF. If it were not for the mammoth
waste basket" the editor warned us of
some time ago, We should be inclined to give
MS name. : MuGGrNs.

Fergus Falls Journal:-The races last Sat-
0rday on the Fergus Falls track were fairly
attended, but terminated with some unpleas-
antneSs. The pony running race was won
by Charlie Aliens Little Grow. The jockey y
race made considerable Sport, and Herman
hathie's mule carried off the cup. The free
for-all trotting race, best three out of five,
was between Fl. Esrl's "Modoc Chief" and
"Temple,'' entered by A. Brandenburg.
The first heat was won by "Modock'' the
second was declared dead heat, the third
was given to "Tcmple." At this point a
lively dispute arose involving the running of
horses, the shouting Of drivers &c., and Mr..
Earl withdrew "Modoc'' from the track.
"Temple" finished the race alone and claimed
the money.

The Situation.

Every day our streets are crowded with
teams and the village IS making rapid strides
towards the front rank OF the most progress
sive towns in this upper country. This is
a fact which cannot be denied, and yet there
are men in this very county who are looking
favorably on the scheme of Il political ring
which has been organized for the express and
even avowed intention Of BEATING Wadena.
What a suicidal step Tor the county is this.
As an evidence of this, look at the ticket
which has been placed in the field by con-
veution run in the interests of this clique.
Not nomination of any consequence has
been awarded Wadena the legal seat of JUS
tice and largest town OF the county. In view
Of these undeniable facts the citizens o!
Wadena and vicinity, in order to protect
the best interests of the county and them
selves against this disgcacelui and hoggish
combination, hereby place the following
ticket in the field, believing it will meet the
approval Of the mass Of the people, except
those who are working to remove the county
seat FROM Wadena to Verndale:
Auditor, A. w. Lake.
Treasurer, II. W. Fuller.
Register of Deeds, E. s. Case.
Sheriff, William H. Howard
County Attorney, f. L. Luce.

Aud still they come, live or six more fam
lilies from Iowa, attracted here by the fame
of the Northern Pacific crops have come,
and they report numbers now on the way
and making ready to start. At this rate there
will be no government land to be had next
spring short Of ten or twelve miles from
B!uffton. Land plats and pocket compasses
are at premium here just now.
Politics are booming, and candidates for
Office are around promiscuously. There is
some excitement over the Office Of sheriff in
Otter Tail county, Judging 1ro,A the talk
wasted Oh the subject. 1t does seem strange
that voters living in the towns up this way
should have any other choice except the reg
ulav republican nominee, who is by all
odds the most suitable candidate in the field
and moreover an east side man. Homer
Crocker is a young ,nan who would do credit
to any office in the county or State. He is
best liked where he is the most known and
is the regular nominee, carrying the conyen-
tion against two or thee strong candidates
He is an east side man and ought to carry
every east side vote, and will if the voters
know their own interests. This corner of
the county has been long neglected, and
even now very few in the western half of
the county know the power that is day by
day developing mp here. Now we have the
chance to show by our vote that We are 10
longer to be quietly ignored Let us grasp
the opportunity and give our candidate !
majority that will make our influence felt
and respected in the future. Then, and not
till then will we get our share of the county
benefits. FACT.

1t is very singular, although it is true, that
when man gets started down hill, there is
always somebody ready to give him a kick
and send him along. And meddling with

Of their own to attend to.

cure the desired reformation from Williams

latter adds one more to our list of bachelors,

Winchester rifles will have to be resorted to
