elected separately and every SIX yesrs-
His measure would have been accorded
the hearty support of all the minority, but
It entirely destroyed the principle Of rcta-
ton In Office and ii was defeated BY more
than party vote. Tie purpose Of the amend
ment WAS clearly 70 remove the election
to time when party lines would not be
closely drawn and when the Democrats
might have better chance Of success be-
cause Of a lack Of interest on the part Of the
Republicans. The majority, however, did

At the Railway House in Austin recently
Justice J. D. sheedy reunited in marriage
Hon. @ Q. Kleven, of Faribault and Mrs
Annie Kleven, Of Albert Lea The feature
OF special interest in connection with the
pleasant wedding is the fact that the now
happy parties were welded to each other
about seven or eight years ago, but for some
reason they were disappointed each with the
other 'ri and agreed to disagree, which resulted
in legal divorce. It has eliminated in mu-
tual explanations and happy reunion.

Some Wheat Figures.

The wheat now in the Northwest -Minne-
sofa and Dakota outside of farmers hands
amounts to little more than 1900, 600
bushels. a year ago the amount was nearly
5000 eco bushels, or more than twice as
much as now. The quantity left back in
the hands OF farmers as surplus above bread.
and an seed is estimated at about 5000 COO
That Is probably about half as much as was
left in farmers hands year ago. Allowing
the common estimate to be correct for the
amounts in farmers hands, then the total
quantity available to go outside is approx
lmately q, GOO, 600 bushels, against ~ OOO, 600
bushels year ago.

Governor Merriam the other day com
muted the death sentence of Martin Moe.
who was to be hanged with John Lee for the
murder of Charles Cherline at Brandon last
June. Moe said he was sorry the Governor

cared little for the manner of his death he
