WILLIAM RAwsoN., {
The Rev. F.. S. Peake, Episcopal
clergyman 1T Valley City, and form
eriy IN charge Of the mission here.
held services in the N. f. church.
Sunday morning and evening. and
whilo here visitad many of his OLE
friends. Mr.. Peake is q brother of
the Peake boys. u
A. Whipple's house on the State
Road was burne last Fridry with
nearly I'LL it's contents. The origin
of the fire is unknown. The in:ur-
ance on the house and contents is
about 5000. This is Il severe loss to
Il very worthy man, and the people
should help him ia every possible
way, as many are now doing.
We clip the following from an cx-
change, which meets our views ex.
actly: "Never growl because news
paper fails to give every scrap of
news, 80 long as you take no pains to
give the editor information. The
average editor isn't y medium, or Il
mind reader; but gets his news just
4, milkman gets his milk--by
pumping."
Mr.. Parker has introduced bill to
create new county out of the terri
tory now embraced in the county of
Cass, lying north of Wadena countJ,
and to contain sixteen townships,
with Park Rapids as the county seat.
He has also introduced bill attach
NJ ave townships of Cass county to
W:ulcna county, the same being in
range 80, and joining Wadsna county
on the east. u
Knulsen, Everts & Fay can now be
found at their new Office on Front
street. two doors east Of the Mer-
chants Hotel. Tn business of the
firm had outsrown their old quarters
at the lumber yard and they have
made the necessary Improvements to
accommodate it. Their new Office is
l6x24, and is nicely fitted up, and we
have no doubt that the increase
in business arising therefrom will pay
the extra expense.
Sank Centro walls over lack of 4
fire department. Sank Centre is a
live town a,d ought to have frstclass
facilities for controlling this tlestruct-
i've element. Being somewhat &C.
quainted with the enterprise Of the
people Of that burgh, we are very
much surprised that they are not
provided with an efi n 'partn. ent
and apparatus.--Little Falls SIR.
And when we have had fire we
shall vail also, and that too without
anything to comfort us, because it is
our own fault that we do not have a
fire department..
