ing DaCk again.
Some of the streets and many of
the vacant lots and the alleys of the
village present an unsightly appear
ance because of weeds. A great deal
of work should be done in moving
and clearing up. If the people gener-
ally will manifest little more pride
in this direction an improved appear
ance for the entire village will be the
result.
There is to be special school meet
ing at the West side school building
OH Saturday August 2lst. at S O'Clock
In the evening, for the purpose OF
authorizing the school board to issue
a bond of the district for 100000 to
pay bond for the same amount that
has become due and for the payment
of which no other means has been
provided.
r. J. Halls letter will be found
elsewhere in this issue. He appears
as the representative of
white-robed, self sacrificing mag
nanimity. Although inexperienced,
we hope he will be able to maintain
himself in the lofty position assumed.
We hope also that our readers will
not scrutinlze recent events too
closely in their desire to find reason
for his sudden turn in the direction of
true goodness.
The TRIBUNE editor spent last SAT-
urday in St. Paul and Minneapolis
and purchased fine lot of new
stationery for the Fall trade, We
have selected larger stock than ever
before and of the better grades of
stationery, because we believe there
will be demand for it. In note and
letter paper, envelopes, statements,
bill heads, cards, blanks, etc, etc. we
now have an almost endless variety.
Call and examine these new goods
and get prices before giving your Or

will materially increase the funds OF
the society The grounds were heauti

were of excellent quality and in goo6
demand; the costumes were striking

The management of the state fair i
treating newspapers III the sam
partial manner that it did last yea
and the Minneapolis Exposition
following the bad example. The cit
dailies are given full page ads at regu
lar rates while the country editors al
invited to insert an occasional ha
column of puff, in consideration {
the enclosed pass. Country paper
are exceedingly valuable and infir
+ ential, and very cheap. This seem

about it all is that country editors al
9 themselves to blame for it.
