THERE is to be a debate at the
court house next Friday evening.
Drop in and hear the boys.
THERE is no question in our mind
but that it blows once n while III
Dakota.
WE understand that a gentleman
from Winncshiek county, Iowa, has
opened a general merchandise store
at Richland.
AT the election next Tuesday
stand by the republican nominees.
They are true to your party and Dc
serve your sulIrages.
THE campaign Ill this city has
opened in dead earnest. A candi-
date was on the streets Monday
with q load of turnips setting them
up on the boys.
BAIL was given by Jno. Montgom-
crv-notlce of whose trial and con-
viction appeared in these columns
last week-and he is now at his
Gothland home.
The demand for residences in
town just now exceeds the supply.
There are few, if any, vacant houses
fit to live in, and more people would
come to town this winter if they
could get houses.
Mr.. HINES, having secured for his
services, on Sunday and the night
services the use of the School House
bell, all persons who attend services
of the Church or Sunday School will
hereafter be guided by it in their
attendance.
For a few weeks to come we will
continue the publication OF educa-
tional notes from the pen Of our
superintendent of schools. These
articles will prove oiinterest to teach
ers and friends of education in this
county.
DIR. +. L. BRADLEY, from near
DEBORAH, Ia, has located at Richland
where he will practice medicine and
preside over the school at that place
during the coming winter. The DR..
was formerly a printer, hence we
can vouch for him.
LAST week one day some little
boys were having a ''sham battle"
and the result is that Willie Wilson
got shot in the face with Il brick-bat,
causing an ugly wound. 1t would
be wise for parents to forbid their
children engaging in that kind OF
sport, as some one is sure 10 get
badly injured.
THE friends Of Willis G. Bower, OF
whom he has many all over south
eastern Dakota, will rejoice at his
good luck in securing the position OF
route agent on the Milwaukee road,
and will begin work as soon as ser
vice is ordered west of Canton. lie
will make an honest, intelligent
official.
Our readers viii remember the
notice signed by VIM. Vassar, where
he offered a reward Of $40 for the
return Of a watch he had lost. Last
week a young man found the watch
and returned it to the owner. Such
is the effect of advertising. Had he
not put a notice in this paper the
chances are that he would never
have got his watch. Mr.. Vassar's
good luck is a lesson worth ponder
