Morris tribune., 1882-11-02


E. Pearce being present Immediately con-
eyed the same to his residence on Fifth
street, and as no counter claim has been
put in we presume he will remain unmo-
Tested in the possession of the valuables.
We have three marriages to record this
week: On Monday John Coleman was
married to Margaret Welsh and on yester-
day there was double wedding, the par

ply and Anna Feely and James Dempsey

The business of Geo. H. Munro s. Co,
has been continually increasing until now
it has outgrown the building In which it
is conducted and work is to be commenced
at once upon an addition to it.. The addi-
ton will increase the length of the store
! twenty-f four feet and is absolutely needed
to make room for the immense additions
to their stock which are about to be made.

enthusiastic meeting at Brainerd, torch
| light procession two miles long, the great
est enthusiasm, ETC., for Mr. Kindred at
his home where Nelson's organs have been
trying to make out that he is unpopular.
Read what the P. P. says, we copy it else

whether Mr. X. is respected and houored
or not, where he if best known
There is low mixed train running be
tween here and St. Paul, over the L. F. &
D, One leaves here for St. Paul at 6
o'clock each morning and another arrives
each evening. AS soon as the road can
be properly ballasted a passenger train
will be added which will be run so to con-
meet with the through passenger trains on
the main line of the N P. We will give
our readers a moro detailed account of ar
engagements upon this road next week.
The most gratifying evidences of the
strength of H. Fl. Wells, our home candi-
date for the Legislature, comes to US from
all parts of the district. That his charac-
ter is unimpeachable, his most bitter po-
IItical opponents are compelled to admit.
He has been identified with this portion of
the state since its earliest history. He has
always taken the part of the people and
has constantly fought rings and monopo-
lies in whatever form they have pre-
act fearcs'y il! the cause of right in spite
OF any external pressure which may be
brought to bear upon him. During the
past ten years he has in many ways shown
his value to the people Of this district, and
ON Tuesday next his worth will be suitably
recognized by the shower OF ballots which
the people will pour upon him.
Owing to the many painfully exaggerated
eulogies of Knute Nelson by his workers
here. many of our people have thought
him to be IAN able, forcible and effective
speaker" and man of much more than
ordinary ability but in the minds of all
who heard him here last Wednesday even
ing the Illusion IS forever dispelled. His
speech was one of the tamest that has ever
been delivered in Morris and showed that
Nelson knows more about how 1--WE old
| fossils have been in the habit of doing
things" than he does Of the needs of this
great and rapidly growing northwest, and
, exhibited clearer conception OF the dark
and mysterious ways of the rings he rep
resents than of those which should absorb
the attention of statesman. Mr.. Nelson
has gained nothing by speaking here. Had
he staid away so that people would not
have known how ordinary" he is he
would no doubt have received more votes
in Stevens county than he will now re-
ceive.
One of the best evidences of the strength
of VIM. H. Campbell, Republican candi-
date for the state senate is found in the
fact that his enemies have opened up
vigorous fire upon him. They are trying
by slanderous insinuaions (they have no
charges to make concerning him to stop
the tide of public opinion which is steadily
and surely sweeping toward him. No one
can find any fault with his private life or
personal character or accuse him of po-
litical trickery or dishonesty, and we may
be sure that jobbing or chicanery will
never be countenanced or sanctioned by
him. He has proven himself worthy of
the many trusts heretofore confded to his
care, is reliable in every respect and those
who know him best are most hearty ia his
support. Mr.. Campbell Is thoroughly ac-
quainted with the wants of the district and
having had ample experience in legislative
duties will make a valuable senator.
His election will be just rebuke to the
boiling trickster who is opposing him and
a squelcher upon the aspirations of the
Democratic nominee for the same position.
Col. Sleeper spoke at Hancock last Mon
day evening, and held one of the largest
and most appreciative audiences ever as
sembled in that village at a political meet
ing applauding him for two hours. The
Col was so clear and to the point with his
remarks, that the Nelson men were
ashamed to own their cause. and the result
will be large vote polled at that
place for Hon. G. F. Kindred. 1t requires
but little explanation to convince Nelson
men they are assisting in the support Of one
of the greatest frauds in the state. Voting
for Nelson that he may thereby be enabled
to hoist few of his assorted bummers
into office, is SO transparent the people can
