j. j. Wetzler. livingsabout three and
half miles south of Sleepy Eye, met
with a reaper accident on Tuesday of
lsast week that may result fatally.
While in the act of hitching the team
to the machine one of the horses be-
came unruiy and knocked MIR. w. down.
The team then started to run and
dragged the machine over him. the
driving wheel striking him on the back
between his shoulders and dragging
him along the ground on his face for a
few feet. 1t is said that his head and
body plowed the ground, leaving hole
six or eight inches in depth. DR.. Well
come, who has the unfortunate man in
charge. fears that he can not recover,
as he is paralyzed entirely from the
shoulders down. Mr.. Wetzler former
~ lived in Steele county and located in
this county last winter.
The Lam berton Commercial last
week contained an article putting up
that burg and trying TO make people be-
lieve it y perfect paradise. Every one
who has ever been to Lamberton knows
very we'll that it wouldn't make
respectable jumping off place at the
end of the earth. The Commercial
had better leave the blowing for some
body who has been there, so that the
people can be furnished with something
near the truth. Springfield Times.
The editor of that nleasly little rag
down the road evidently takes excep-
tons to our statement made last week
that Lamberton had no loafers or dead
beats. We will retract that assertion,
because the editor of the Times does
come up to Lamberton occasionally
Lambert0ss Commercial.
It isn't often that an editor gets to
quarreling with himself, either edltori-
ally or otherwise, but here is a spectacle
of an editor bufeting about his own
shadow, the editor of the Times being
the same and identical person that E.
dts the Commercial. Burt, your a
good un.
According to the Reveille, Redwood
county has candidate for county treas
urer who proposes to perform the du-
ties of the Office for 5000, if elected, al
though the fees amount to about 81, 200.
The other 5000 he proposes to refund
into the treasury. Such propositions
have also been made in this county in
former years. but the people never took
very kindly to them nor the candidates
making them. An officer whose SER
vices are not worth the salary or fees
allowed by law is 4 dear quantity at
any price. Commenting upon the Red
wood county mans proposition the
Reveille says: ''Why wouldn't it be
just rs well for contractor to bid on
all the county Offices, than hire gang
to run them, on the same principle that
buildings are :made?" Yes, why
wouldn't it.
The Times gives the following de-
scription of the Springfield roller mill,
just completed:
The mill was built by the Pray
manufacturing company Of Minneapolis
for the Springfield milling company,
which consists of Messrs. Schneider,
Winkleman and Dietz. The building
is three story frame, including base
ment, 32x44 #. On entering the mill
the first thing that strikes the eye is
numberless elevators and spouting. It
has 5 double pair Of Livingston rolls; 5
centrical reels; one separator, one
cookie machine; one wheat scour-
er and one packer. It's driven by a
Buckeye engine of 60 horse power. The
mill will be run by Mr.. Fred Keller, an
expert miller from New Ulm. The
mill, which is the pride of Springfield,
has been q long-felt want, and we hope
will be well supported by the surround
ing country. Our farmers will find the
proprietors honest and fair in their
dealings, and anxious to give satisfac-
ton to all.
Our Redwood neighbor, the Gazette,
says Redwood county has rod in pick
lie for Hon. S. D. Peterson should be
come up again for..Senator, according
to the present programme. Now it is
all folly for our neighbor to talk about
''the present programme, !" for it's a
myth, at least so far as concerns Mr..
Petersen. He has not even yet signifed
to his most intimate friends that he
