Mrs. j. A. BemiS ana MIS-. j. u.
Fuller went to st. Paul yesterday.
FL. Campbell and U. J. Baxter OF
the Interior Department ut Washing
ton were among yesterdays callers at
the TRIBUNE office.

Co. Minnesota arrived at Morris yes
terday. They are on hunting trip.
J. w. Cooper and family after spend

Our readers can gain some idea OF
how farm work is pushed on our boz
nanza farms, by the fact that J. nj.
Dickinson is now running upwards OF
thirty blows on the Moorland Farm
and as soon as the other work Is com
pleted so that the required number OF
| teams can be had the number will be
increased to fifty.-Olive Branch.
1t has been suggested that the citi-
zens be called out, as soon as the
prairie grass is again dry enough to
burn, under the direction of the Fore
man of the Phoenix Fire Company,
for the purpose of making fire breaks
about the city. We think the sug-
gestion one that should be acted upon
as from certain directions. at least pro-
lection is needed.
A file of this paper will be kept at
New Orleans during the continuance
of The Worlds Industrial and Cotton
Centennial Exposition, from Dec. LIST
1854 to June LIST 1885. Morris people
visiting the Exposition and others M
terested in this locality can have the
TRIBUNE to read by asking for it Of H.
d. West, Superintendent of Mime
sofa Publications Exhibits.
No one should be without the TRIB-
UNE. For local news, general news,
editorial, farm and miscellaneous arti-
cles it is unequalled by any paper in
this part of Minnesota. 1t is worth,
to any family, many times its cost.
If you are not now u regular reader of
this paper, send in trial subscription.
We feel sure that after having once
had the TRIBUNE, you will never
again do without it.
Young men and others with small
capital, wishing homes, should inn
prove the opportunity which the pres
ent depression i'll prices affords. Hard
times will not always last, Houses and
lots or farms that present financial COM
ditions have forced into the market at
prices ridiculously low, will in all
probability cost one year from now
twice the amount asked for them to-
day.
The Robert Buck Dramatic Com
pany played "Josua Whltcomb" Oh
Wednesday night of last week and
"Fanchon, the Cricket" on Thursday
might. For some unaceountable
reason their audiences were small, but
their entertainments We're exception
ally good. Robert Buck and his COM
pany are entitled to much more liber-
al patronage than they received while
in Morris.
Rev. III. Johnson has accepted a
call to another field of labor and will
leave his work here and
his home jim Framnas about the
middle of next month: On Saturday
n ovember 1st he will offer his stock,
farming implements and household
furniture for sale at auction. The sale
will be at his residence in Framnas
and will commence at 10 O'Clock in
the forenoon, X. J. Husevold will be
the auctioneer.
w. H. Hendricks after buying
E. Coles stock, first refitted, and. re-
painted the store and made every
thing about it look neat and attractive
He has now put in large new stock
of oysters, candies, nuts, provisions
canned goods, spices, tobbaccos and
cigars and is ready for business. in
| addition to the store he has lunch
room in which he serves hot coffee
| and lunch at all hours. Notice his
| advertisement.
From strip ofg round, about Il roc
wide around the cemetery the sod ha!
| been removed. Our attention la!
been called to the fact that at the cor
ners the work is not thoroughly done;
some of the sod and grass Is left q
that the cemetery, after all, is not pro
tected from prairie fires AS soon as
the grass again becomes dry enough
the grass remaining ct these corners
should he burned. 1t will take hui
little time or labor and the cemetery
will then be wholly protected.
Rev. Thomas McCary leetnred il
Phoenix Hall last night. For such 1
stormy, disagreeable night, the au.
deuce was very large. The lecture
was instructive and interesting. Til
many excellent thoughts advanced
were interspersed with kind Of hv
NOR that is decidedly Interesting. Rev
McClary is all able man, an attractiv
speaker and may feel assured of a
large congregation whenever he ca
find opportunity to speak in Morris
He goes to Browns Valley to-da
where he speaks this evening.
