We are in receipt Of a copy of the
premium list Of the Nicollet County Ag-
ricultural Society for their annual fair
TO be held Sept. 10, 20 and 81. AS usual
the list is a long one and offers excel
lent premiums. The catalogue is a
neatly printed pamphlet the work Of

We cannot state positively but we
think We are safe in saying that the re-
port of the Commissioners on the
Sleepy Eye list will reduce the number
of signatures to less than 1850 while
that of the remonstrance remains at
over 1900. This leaves no doubt as
to the result. The Sleepy Eye people
admit their defeat on that score.
The Porter Elevator Company, of
Winona, have reopened their elevator
at Courtland since the Van Dusen con-
Germ was knocked out, and the ware
house Of the New Ulm Mills at that
place will also begin to receive wheat
in a few days. The party who has
heretofore done Van Dusen's business
is now working in the intrests of other
firms and the Rochester Wheat King is
completely knocked out in the village
of Courtland.
The Sleepy Eye Herald excuses its art
icle, charging New Ulm with bribery,
with the statement that it was not writ
ten by Mr.. T. E. Bowen, but at the same
time it declares that it had been told by
farmers, who are ready to prove it, that
money was used by New Tim to buy
signers to the remonstrance. Now
MI. Herald editor, or what ever posi-
ton you may hold on that paper, just
trot out the farmers that made that
statement and prove the charge or you
yourself will be held resp onsible for the
false fabrication.
The death of Peter Gulden, which
occurred at the hospital last Thursday
morning, removes from life one of the
Oldest and best known Of the ea,ly sets-
lers of Brown County. Mr.. Gulden
came to this country from Wurtem-
burg, where he was born, in 1917 and
settled in Minnesota in 1868. Since
s that date he has resided in the town of
Cottonwood, and has always been re-
garded rs q hard working and indus
trious citizen, respected by all who
i knew him. Last February he was taken
sick with dropsy and was brought to
St. Alexander's Hospital, where, with
the exception of intervals, he continued
under treatment up to the time of his
3 death, which came to him at the ripe
age of 81. The funeral was held from
the Catholic church, Friday morning,
and was attended by a large concourse
of friends and relatives. The deceased
leaves a wife, two sons, now residing in
Wisconsin, and five brothers.
