President Jackson as an Indopser

There was an impecunious lawyer in
Nashville, but warm friend to General
jackson, who followed the old hero TO
Washington in 1920, and was given n
clerkship. This clerk contracted debt
after debt with clearinghouse keepers,
ana olten forgot to pay their bills. At
last lady TO whom he owed 500 went
to General Jackson and spread the case
before him. "Why don't you take His

no good, she replied, "fOr he will never

her TO present II TO such n broker and he
would give her the money for 1t. She

1T BELONGS TO THE COUNTY

An erroneous impression has gained
currency in certain portions of the coun-
ty, that the title of the county to the
block on which it is proposed TO erect a
court house, in case the bonds are voted,
and upon which the old buildings now
stand, is not a perfect one-that at best
it is only lease.
To ascertain the facts in this matter,
we have caused the ownership to be
looked up, and find that the county has
the title to said block in fee simple The
County Commissioners had the clerk OF
it's board file with the Judge of the Dis
trict Court its application for the county
block, had it fenced IN at an early day,
and took formal possession thereof No
one ever filed adversely to the interests
of the county. Upon proper proof
shown, the county obtained warranty
deed of the block from the Judge of the
District Court over twenty years ago,
and the title thereto is the same as to all
other lots in town, viz: Judges deed.
In the suit of the county of Blue Earth
against the st. Paul & Sioux City rail-
road, which was decided by the Supreme
Court of this State three or four years
ago, the court directly passed upon the
validity of the title of the county to this
very block of ground, and held it good.
So the county at large, not Mankato,
owns valuable property, at present fig
ures worth $4,000, and it remains to
be seen whether or not the people have
sufficient interest in the permanent pre-
servation of their records to erect neces-
sary buildings. We believe they have,
and shall continue to think scat least
until after the election.

IN FAVOR OF THE BONDS.

Editor Free Press
Those bonds are absorbing the atten'
ton Of the farmers all through the coun'
ty just now. ! have been asked by q
large number Of the voters of LeRay
this question: "What are you going to
do about the bondsP" Consequently
have thought the subject over and view
ed it from all the points could think
of, for and against it, and have come tc
this conclusion:
/. The court house we must have. II
must be built some time, and we have
got to build it. The taxpayers are the
| Eve" that have this job on hand. And
the sooner we commence and finish II
up the cheaper it will be for all concern
ed. fit is not built the coming year
money will have to be expended in re-
pairs, another extra or special election
will have to be held, and all these little
expenses make large aggregate In the
end.
2. No matter when I'VE" build it oul
county commissioners must have full
control, and we must depend on their
good sound sense and judgement. We
have business men on the Board nov
that know what they are about, and
believe will work for the interests of the
whole county.
8. The difference In the actual Ia,
each one will pay will be very small
either way. Whether we build now o.
ten years hence, IL will never be less

COUNTY CORRESPONDENCE
Willow Craak.

At the last regular meeting of Pleasant
Mound Grange p. of H., No. PA, the
following resolutions were introduced,
and, under suspension of rules, were
unanimously passed, and the Secretary
was directed to forward copy to the
Mankato FREE Press with the request
for their publication:
Resolved, That we rs legal voters and
tax payers do most emphatically con-
denim the action of our county commits
sioners in calling a special election in
this county on May 9th next, for the
purpose of voting bonds to build new
court house in the city of Mankato; that
the time selected is unwise as to season,
and Justly lays the commissioners open
to the charge Of conniving to defeat the
will of the people by purposely choosing
date when farmers are unusually busy
with their crops, thereby preventing
many from attending the polls.
Resolved, That we believe the amount
called for as exorbitant, inconsistent
with true economy, and far in excess o.
present demands or future wants of the
county.
Resolved, That we believe the present
county buildings suitable for all practi
cal purposes, and that the question o.
ornament as urged by the friends of the
scheme, is unworthy of the ,considera
ton of Intelligent, sensible people.
Resolved, That We earnestly urge upor
every voter throughout the county who
is in favor Of putting down reckless ex
travagance and ring rule the importance
of attending the polls on the day of cleo
ton to assist IN defeating the measure.

the initial presentation. 1t will be re-
peated this and tomorrow evenings,
and all who love pleasant entertain

flying to be so pleasantly diverted by
home talent. The Choral Society de-
serve credit for the persistence which
they have manifested in their winters
work
