Call and look at the immense
stock of John Norton. No trouble
to show goods.
The crazy social given by the
Ladies Aid of the Congregational
Church, Notwithstanding the m
clemency of the weather, was very
well attended and quite enjoyable.
Owing to the fact that but few of
the parties on the program were
there, it was not carried out as
originally intended at all.
We call attention to a change
made in the call of the republican
county convention. By this change
call includes the selection of a
county superintendent of schools.
AS the election takes place on Tues
day the 10Th day of June 1888.
This call is made at this time to
enable republicans to look around
and select the best and most avail
able man for the place. 1t is an
important position and should be
filled by man or woman perfectly
qualified for the position.
Last Wednesday evening dur
ing the prevalence of a storm in
Egeland township, lightning struck
the residence of Alex. Laduke, ran
down into the house splitting the
stove pipe and moving the stove,
threw down the chairs, table, and
everything standing in the room.
The bolt literally riddled the floor
joice and took the banking away
from the house a foot on the north
side. Two children were sleeping
on the floor, down stairs and Mr.. L.
and his wife and all escaped I'M
hurt.
For every rs cents worth of
wheat shipped to Chicago 81 cents
is absorbed in freight and commits
sion. 1t seems to us that half that
sum ought to be amply sufficient
for the freight and commission.
Five cents bushel would be amply
sufficient and profitable for a rail-
way company and loo for the eleva-
tor company; but the two compan-
les are not satisfied with less than
so per cent of the farmers product.
No wonder the farmer kicks. 1t is
high time something should be done
to prevent the yearly stealage Of
from one-third to one-half his crop.
%. II. Nelson's gray mare "Jen-
ny Lind" if improving rapidly in
her ability as goer. At the last
race she demonstrated her ability to
get away with the balance of the
fiyers( p and not half try. 1t is the
prevailing opinion among horse men
that Mr.. Nelson has good one"
Ia traveller hard to beat. The first
race she trotted in was won by the
Haven MAZE, but Mr.. Nelson and
others who admired the mare, were
not satisfied. Another race was
matched for April gath, in which
race she was driven by Mr.. Cassidy,
who, by the way, shipped her here
from Owattona, Mimi, about a
year ago and sold her to Mr.. Mel
son. Jim said after the race, that
all the mare needed was some one
behind her to talk little Irish to
her, as she hasn't got real well vers-
ed in Norwegian yet. Jenny will
be backed for any reasonable sum
against any horse in the city, for a
race best two in three, mile heats.
If you want a match call on Mr.,
Nelson or Dasady and they viii &C,
lcommodate you.

The Madison Square Theatre
Company Will he here three nights
next week, at the Armory Hall.
Go to John Norton's for clothing
and secure the finest goods and low
est prices ever offered in Dakota.
The grain goes into ground
this year that is in splendid con-
dition. Look out for huge crop.
The choice of Mr.. John Nor
ton for President of the County
Sunday School Association is a
good one.
C. d. Peterson is building a
large barn on his lot in the rear of
his drug store. The barn is 14r24
IA foot posts.
M. Rexford, the own and only
red hot real estate and loan agent
at Waubay, was in town last Satur-
day-happy as a clam.
Miss Florance Baker returned
from her winters visit east last week.
Her many friends here were glad to
welcome her home.
Capt. J. Wander Horck was in
town on Saturday, looking after his
business interests here. The Capt.
is looking remarkably well.
MIR. N. l.. Hardness has re-
turned from his two months visit
east, and will be found at his Office
ready to take your law cases.
1t is claimed that the Fl. Sis
seton beef contract has been award
cd to a Britton man for this year at
the magnificent figures of 81 cents
per pound.
Archibald & Co., of Dundas,
Mimi, millers, are buying wheat
here and receiving it at the Farm
mers elevator. The very first lick
they put up grain three cents on a
bushel.
When you are fooling with
fire you should remember that if
you set out prairie fire that does
your neighbor damage, you are
liable to severe punishment under
the law.
John Wellsinger has been pro-
NOTED and is now night-miller at
the Model Mills. John has been
faithful and deserved this consid-
Grafton from the hands of his en-
ployers.
Next Saturday at 2 o'clock p.
m. meeting of Sons of Verterans at
the court house. Sons of soldiers
Lot members of G.. A. r. Posts,
will bring the discharge papers Of
their fathers.
Our citizens raised quite a little
sum OF money for Mrs. Wentworth,
by subscription, on Saturday last.
1t was decidedly encouraging to the
poor woman in her long struggle
against disease.
This year homestead proofs in
our county are quite numerous.
This will make a decided addition
to our assessed valuation In realty,
and, we hope, by reason of this in
crease, enable us to reduce the tar
levy another year.
The Congregational Church
will now be closed for couple o
weeks pending the engagement of
| minister to succeed Mr.. Dickinson
1t is proposed to make some re
pairs in the church during thl
thine.

The performance of "My Part
ner," at the Opera House last even
ing, by the Madison Square Theatre
Company, brought out the entire
strength of the company, and dem
onstrated the excellent material Of
which it is composed. The role OF
"Mary Branden" by the leading
lady, Miss Ada Howard, was well
done, but the part does not bring
out all the strong points of this fine
actress. Mrs. Keene a "Posey Pent-
land, was very good in this amusing
character, and Miss Bell Tanner ably
assisted the leading lady, in the
part of "Grace Brandon" Mr.. Nc
Dowell as "Joe Saunders" and A.
NJ. Hart as "Ned Slngleton"-the
partners-gave a thrilling and life
like portrayal of mining character.
Mr.. Keene played the rattle headed
politician, major Britt" very cred
itably, and Mr.. Kelly, as "Scraggs, :"
the hideous scheming william and
murderer, was horribly realistic,
and an involuntary shudder passed
through the audience whenever he
appeared upon the stage. But the
member of the company who most
completely captured the audience
was Little Letta, a diminutive tot
of a girl, only four years old, who
played the comedy part of the play,
ewing Lee" the Heather Chinee.
The dialect, facial expression and
droIl grotesque antics of the "typlcal
kid from the Flowery Kingdom"
convulsed the spectators, and also
filled them with astonishment.
Little Retta is certainly wonder
full child and must be seen to be
appreciated. Cloud, (Minn. J

We want to get the acreage OF
wheat sown or to be sown in the
county for the year 1888. Will
some one in each township in the
county kindly help us in this mat.
ter? 1t will be to our interest to
know and we can do farmers some
good by having it.
Mr.. i. E. Potter has retired
from the office of deputy clerk and
Mr.. A. E. Brown succeeds him in
the position Mr.. Brown is very
pleasant gentleman and will be very
acceptable to our people. Mr.. Potter
has been a good officer. We have
not learned what line of business he
will enter.
1t is now affirmed that last
Saturdays convention was held in
the Prior House parlors some two
hours before the Court House con-
vention, which latter was only o
repetition of the Prior House con-
vention. If this is so, the good old
democratic methods obtain in Da-
kota as elsewhere.
-Supt. Barker says that the
pupils of the Webster village schools,
who attended the Teachers exam
ination, have made good improve
ment since the examination a year
ago. This is an evidence that the
pupils in our schools who have
made an effort to improve them
selves, have succeeded.
Lots of tree are being hauled
into the country by farmers. Fruit
trees, and small fruits are plenti-
FULLY sprinkled among the forest
trees for wind breaks and for the
tree claim. 1t looks as if Dakota,
like Iowa, would yet repudiate the
cry "you can't raise fruit in this
country" We hope so anyhow.
DIR. Robinson spent Monday
and Tuesday in our city preparing
the way for the coming of the
Madison Square Theatre Company
next week. The DIR. is a genial,
companionable gentleman, and we
spent an hour IN his society very
profitably-he is an old Dakotian
aud well posted in its history, es-
pecially North Dakota.
Mrs. D. J. Ostrander, from
Paynesyille, Mimi, arrived IN our
city last Friday and probably spend
the summer with her daughter, Mrs.
DIR. Brooks. OF course the lady
renewed her alligience to the good
and noble REPORTER, because she
can "get all the county news in IT."
Mrs. Ostrander is looking remark
ably well and is as lively and full
Of fun as ever.
Our citizens have been agitated |
over a nine days wonder-a singu-
lar phenomenon or freak of nature.
Mr.. J. Alley has a horse that has a
we'll defined snake in its left eye.
Large numbers of our citizens have
been to see the peculiar freak, and
Ill uniformly say cheats anything |
aver saw in my life." The horse
loes not appear to suffer any in
from having what APP
pears to be live serpent IN its eye.
