Stevens County tribune. (Morris, Minn.) 1877-1880, 1879-12-04

very entertaining, sparkling with
wit and humor, and will be presented in a |
credtable manner. We bespcak crowded /
houses, as the residents 1of this village and
vicinity always literally patronize any en-
tertainments given by our local Amateurs
THAT FUEL SUrPLY.-The railroad com
pany have concluded to allow dealers to
retail wood at their stations. Judge IL.
Bragg has made arrangements with the
company to handle wood at this point, and
as soon as arrangements can be made will
have constant supply, which will be re-
tailed ut tie very reasonable rate of $500
per Cord. We are very glad this important
question has been settled, and hope that it
may result in closing the breach and bring
ing about more friendly feeling between
the people and the Company.
Messrs. DIR. Sutherland, F. B. Kenner
and L. H. stanton returned from their deer
hunt lastswcek with two fine bucks as "tro-
plies of the chase" One of these an un-
usually large animal, shot by the Doctor,
weighed when dressed, two hundred and
thirty pounds We would endeavor to
give an account of the incidents, events,
occurrences and adventures of the trip, but
we refrain from so doing, only because we
are sfraid some of the parties would feel
sighted, we did endeavor to connect the
three several accounts we received and
publish them AS one romantic tale, but our
efforts Were not successful, there was a
discrepancy somewhere, for which we
could not account, SO we did not try to dl-
vide two between three and give each d
whole.
The wheat blockade will probably be
raised in few days, as il is expected that
the new elevator in Minneapolis will be
ready to receive grain by the 10Th. The
anchor ice which interfered with the run
ming of the mills does not now give trouble,
and consequently there will be no stoppage
from this cause BUSINESS in Morris will
probably continue without further Interrupt
ton as the new elevator will be ready by
the Goth, and with this increase in storage
capacity and handling facilities, it is not
probable that a temporary blockade at ter
minal points or along the line will stop the
receipts or clog the elevators. Prices CON
tinue advancing and although the elevators
at present are receiving no grain, yet there
is considerable wheat in store being sold
those holding tickets being satisfied with
the, prices paid-No. brings from 500 tc
E$1 90 and No. three cents lower.
