The agony is over and the country

The Richard Foote Tragedy Com
pany Is advertised to be here next

an unusually strong company, that
IL ar nt a. a

Farm ers from Grant county tell US
that fall blowing in that county is a
good deal behind this year. The
spring was late, consequently seeding
was late, harvesting late, and of
course fall blowing is late. In Stevens
county farmers are well along with
their blowing, considering the late
ness of the season.
We doubt if there is a county in the
state of Minnesota in which there are
so few sherif7s sales and foreclosures
of mortgages advertised as there are
In our county of Stevens. We have
In exchange newspapers published
in every section of the state, and by
examining the columns of these
papers we are enabled to form cor
rect opinion in relation to this matter,
aud we think we are justified in maxi
ing the above statement, which
speaks we'll for the county ofStevens.
We are proud OF our little county, we
are.
To say nothing of the political
portion of Hon. r. @. Evans
speech at the court house last Satur-
day evening, lis we'll deserved tri-

was not only eloquent, but grand.
His manner OF describing the dsvel-

suggest to the gentleman that ht

vest A lecture by Mr.. Evans OF
that subject would take with tn,
people of the Northwest and woult
be very popular. There IS no doub
about it.
We understand that it is the In
tention OF Mr.. Henry Johnson, of tn
North Star Flour Mills, to erect
two story building on his lots, corne
Of 5th street and Atlantic Avenue
either this fall or next spring. TIL
lower story will be used as an offie
and wholesale -four and feed store
These Iots.uf Mr.. Johnson's are som
OF the very best business lots in tn
city, and good business house, sucl
an one as Mr.. Johnson will erect
viii add greatly TO the appearance 0
that part of town. 1t is probable b
will put up brick building an
make it fire proof. BY all means W
would advise him to construct a brio
building. There shouldsbe no NOR
wooden business buildings erecte
inside the city limits. Brick cost
but little, if any more, and when th
