Litchfeld Independent: There does not
| seem to be any stir in politics in this
county this fall, except among the can
didates who are seeking nomination on
the Republican ticket to be nominated

quite odd to have an election with but one
ticket in the field, and consequently no
chance to scratch" Are the Greenback-
ers, Democrats and Independent Republi-
cans going to take rest for once?

country is fast gaining the reputation of be-
ing an unsafe place fer respectable people
to live in. Some time ago double murder

mercial traveller made things lively for {
time around the Huff house last Saturday

The Mankato Reuie1v says that the out
look for the building OF the projected 81
Cloud, Mankato and Austin railroad i
anything but hopeful. The bonuses ar
all voted, conditioned upon the compile
tion of the road by Decemser, 1884; th,
land grant will expire about the SAM
time; the charter, franchises, ETC., hav'
been turned over to construction com
pany whose affinities and intentions ar
wrapped in most profound mystery; Will
the people interested, who projected, la
bored for, and staked almost every thinI
upon the success of the enterprise, ar
powerless to act. 1t is possible to build
road of $50 miles in one year, much O.
the work being heavy and expensive, bu
it is not probable; and the incomplet
condition in which the surveys have beef
left gives but little hope or encourage
ment to such an expectation.
