DEWALD.

EDITOR ADVANCE: AS the east part
Of DewaId is not often heard from,
Will Say we are all busy, and have been
mending our ways this spring. The
turnpike on the Luverne road at Little
Rock Bridge has been raised two or
three feet. Also good bridge has been
built across the Little Rock just west
Of J. II. Maxwell's place. so Mr.. Girls
sell can get to his farm from town with
out getting in the mud, or in the Little
Rock.
The object of mending the roads we
suppose is to get good roads to Rush.
more, rs the road to Worthngton is 50
bad that farmers do not want to travel
over it when they can possibly avoid
doing SO.
The hoppers are growing nicely.
Crops ditto. Mr.. Sundburg has lest IL
bout 40 acres by the hopperS. Mr..
Moore about II, and others some.
Mr.. Mooae has gone to Heron Lake
to work on the railroad.
But little breaking is being done in
this vicinity.
We have no school in district AZ as
we can afford but one term Il year and
have that in winter.
Cultivating corn is in order now.
Mr.. Eggleston, just over the line in
Worthington, has seventy acres Of corn
this year, that seems more like Illinois
or Iowa than Minnesota. MAX.

EDITOR ADVANCE: Nearly all the
able-bodied men of this town are ut
work OH the $. NJ. railroad. Quite a
number of our citizens have taken con-
tracts among whom may be mentioned
G.. and W. Gage, Jonas and George
Parshall, II. S. Austin and Others.
Breaking seems to be at a stand still
this season, not much of it is being
done.
Mrs. Wallis house is rebuilt and she
has moved into the same and is lis hap
by rs Il lark Oh June morning.
All kinds of crops are looking well in
this town excepting on last years break
ing not backset last fall. On this cl ISIS
of ground the coming up of the grain
after the rains and the Matching OF the
young hoppers thereon were simultane-
Gus and the destruction of the grain in
most cases OH such ground was the re-
suit. The graders also suffer consider
able from the r;svages of the pesty hop
els.
Could we not establish market day in
this county, say once 4 month, where
purchasers and sellers could meet for
their mutual benefit. Such a market
day, ut stated times, would bring into
our midst purchasers of our surplus
stock and dairy products. Think this
over brother farmers and help agitate
the matter until market day is estab-
lished i'll Mobiles county. FARMER.

IVILLMONT,

The crops in our town look just splen-
did, with very little exception. The
Lord has blessed us with nice rains,
now and then, as he thought was nee
essary to keep our crops growing nice
ly. The hoppers have not done as much
damage us was expected. Here and
there tasted of some garden vegetables.
The farmers in our town are advance
ing rapidly.
Il. Kasey has gone into the cheese
business. lie makes q pretty good
quality Of cheese. He has also about
AS good piece Of wheat as there is in
county.
Well, our assessor has come at last.
lie don't ride on our newly organized
town us a good many assessors do. lie
comes on his white horse. He means
business. lie will not present to the
Town Board at their next session ten
or fifteen days assessment when he
might have done it in four or five.
Our rCadmaster could not rest until
he had the roads fixed in good travelling
condition. lie also has ordered. and
his obedient servants have opened and
broke up the road to the south line of
Murray county, upon the east line of
section Q, Town 104, Range AZ.
T.. Schneider is also doing pretty
fair trade, taking everything into con-
sideratiOn.
The farmers are most all busy break
ing and building houses. Mr.. Thomp-
son has built him new house. Mr.
Banks also. A. Forbes an addition to
his house. Also stable and carriage
house combined.
There are good many more houses
gone up in the south and west part of
the town. The reporter did not learn
their names.
o. J. Dodge has also built him new
home. X.

Guesses as to the authorship of the
letter above referred to have been nu-:
merous. Several Of our own citizens
have been charged with writing it and
even the editor of the ADVANCE has
been credited with its production. But
none of the guesscs so far have been
correct.
Worthington is now gaining a wide
reputation as a temperance town. If
this were all, if the reputation were
that of temperance town only, we
should all feel proud of it. But we are
getting the reputation Of being CON-
munity of fanatics. To crafty person.
al spite, prosecutions have been insti-
gated which have driven our merchants |
from selling cider and our druggists
from selling liquor for any purpose
whatever. Even liquor for medicine
and wine for communion purposes can
not he had.
This state of things will continue un-
til the better class of business men take
the matter into their own hands and
tell the fanatics to step down and out.
A large majority of our people are firm
ly opposed to the introduction of open
saloons, but they are just as firmly op-
posed to that mis-interpretation and |
mis-enforcement Of law which prevents |
the sale of liquor for legitimate pur-

dreau was willing to give. They would
expect to repay in advantage all that
the town would give them. There.
would be meeting Of the new company
at St. Paul next (this) week ana they
would like to have the proposition from
Flandreau by that time, in order to
take action thereon. They would agree
to come here by October :1st 1880 and
would undoubtedly reach here several
months before that time. In reply to a
question whether they would allow any
other company to reach the Sioux Riv-
er in Moody county before them, Gen.
Bishop replied that the people of Elan.
dreau could safely leave that to the
company.
at 4 subsequent meeting the citizens
resolved to vote a bonus of $15, 0|N to
the road.

ASTOUNDED.

The Rock Island railroad party,
which passed over the st. Paul & Sioux
City road on the 18th in special train,
expressed rs much as they could of their
surprise and delight after landing at
Sioux City. A resolution was adopted
thanking the road and Mr.. Flower, of
New York, is reported as saying ''tl,at
tho party were surprised beyond ex-
preston to find a country of such beau
ty and fertility between St. Paul &
Sioux City, and u railroad so we'll BAL
lasted and so ably managed, and that
he, for one. predicted a great future for
the st. Paul & Sioux City line.'
Bless you, Mr.. Flower, that is moth
ing new to us. ave told you 500 six
or seven years ago and the mole-eyed
said we '*exaggerated.' If you had
read the ADVANCE regularly you would
have known all about tins beautiful
country long ago.
