This hotel is we'll spoken of and it's

acquisition of David as one of it's bus
mess managcrs.-Austin TRANSCRIPT.
We hear the Board Of County Com
missioners criticized good deal for
consulting the late Ex'Sheriff, J. A.
Town, in making up the jury lists.
Town was present and assisted in
making out the lists. OF course
political friend of Towns is as apt to
make good juryman as any one else.
But then it don't look we'll to have jur-
les one-sided politically. We notice
in the Grand Jury list that in Worth
lngton village there are ten men who vo-
ted for Town to three who didn't. In
Westside, there are four Town men to
one who is doubtful, and three of these
| were the red-hottest men in the county
in calling the Peoples Ticket ''whiskey
ticket" and i'll trying to literally black
guard it down in We:tslde. This pro-
portion is varied little in some of the
townships, but it is singular that with
Il majority Of the legal voters for Miller,
the Grand Jury should be so largely
made up of men who supported Town
at the recent election. The trial of the
serpent seems to he over it all.
The Concert given on Friday evening

Mr.. Weeks is certainly violinist of

Anyhow, Mr.. Erwin is one of the most
skillful cornet play ers we have heard.

sentiment of the song is not lost, sub

pulling. The St. Paul Globe copies
part Of our article on the Mankato Nor
NAL school protesting against tie APP
pointment Of Il sectarian or Il minister
for Principal, and credits it TO the
W0rthington Journal. If that don't

By-the-way, our contemporaries go on
copying from the ADVANCE and credit

a recklessness which is admirable.
