VIM. Stroebel has declined to serve
on the Democratic ticket as candidate
for Register of Deeds. Who will be the
next to decline?
james +. Swenson and Geo. T.
GrannIs, Prohibition nominees for
county treasurer and auditor respective
ly, have declined to run on that ticket
and il Is stated that the Republican can
didates for those offices will be placed
upon the Prohibition ticket.
Mr.. ID. L. Rose states positively that
he will not run for auditor on the Dem
ocratic ticket and does not consider
himself in the field in any sense Of the
word. He said before the convention
that he would not serve for any office
and reiterates 1t now. Thus, piece by
piece, the Democratic ticket falls to
pieces.
The deed for lot /, block IL, Bran

10 complete the $4,000 paid for the

sent sooner, but Mr.. Parry, just before
taking a long trip, saw in st. Paul pa
per that the hotel project bad fallen
through. On his recent return he dis
covered his mistake upon looking at a
MankatO paper.
What might have proved serious
accident occurred at the corner of Sec
ond and Walnut streets about three
O'Clock this afternoon. j. III. Long &
Co. are having sewer connection
placed in their store and the excavation
has reached a depth of twelve or fifteen
feet. At the hour mentioned a consId-
cradle CAVERN occurred and one Of the
workmen named Pat Williams was
caught at the bottom and covered as far
as bis waist. When nearly out a second
CAVERN occurred and caught him again.
He was finally taken out without suffer.
ing anything worse than bruises. The
excavation had not been properly
planked up and the cave-in was some.
what similar to the fatal one of about
year ago.
