provisions are.
The Manitoba right of way through

right of way will be required to move
Off at once after which the space will
be graded and set with trees. The
work will result in greatly improved
for the city.
The TRIBUNE man made a flying
visit to st. Paul and Minneapolis. He
bought a new Economic" paper
cutter, additional type and printers
and large stock of station
cry and paper. The TRIBUNE keeps
on hand great quantity
and variety of all kinds of stationery
and has the best equipped job office in
western Minnesota. Prices are uni
low. Call and see samples
and get prices.
The Tribune earnestly hoped that
the position Of Minister to Sweden

to Minnesota, as the appointment of
Minnesotian to that place would re-
suit in benefit to the state. But it
now transpires that it was not to be,

sofas candidate for the mission is out
In the cold. He has since been a cam
didats for the Consulship at Vienna

The people Of this county have taken
an unusual interest in the Dr.s well
fare, have shared his disappointments,
and still accompany him with their
good wishes, hoping that he may be
able to get something and be permit
ted to 60 somewhere.
