There will be several widows in

Wilder IS in Duluth driving nails
and planning boards. Hofer is across
the Rockies in Oregan making con.
fectioneries. Mckee goes to Col.
orado also to take charge of a horse
ranch. All these gentlemen will
return in spring and resume their
farming operations.
This grand weather, which has
been superior to an eastern Indian
Summer, has been God-send to the
farmers, as it has allowed them to
let their stock Craze on the fall
growth of oats, barley wheat and nu-
tritious prairie grass. Animals that
were in poor condition six weeks
ago have been put in good order
without expense. It seems i'm.
possible to our eastern man that
this can be so, but the dead grass of
these N. Oak. prairies compare very
favorably with first class hav for
nutrition value.
There was given at the Hudson
school house, Thanksgiving evening,
one Of the best school entertain
ments we have eyer attended. The
exercises all had vein of temper
ance sentiment in them rendering
them both entertaining and instuc-
tive. The selections were arranged
and conducted by Miss Minnie E.
Ladd, teacher of the school. Both
scholars and teacher received the
thanks Of all present. for the very
enjoyable evening afforded them.
The ability shown in the prepara-
tion OF these exercises, together
with the progress made by the pu-
pills during the past term prove Miss
Ladd to be one Of the best teachers
in Dickey county. A supper was
afterwards served by the Ladies Aid
Society and collection taken amount
ing to S13.67 for the benefit Of
Rev's Hooke and Monroe who occu-
py the pulpit on alternate Sabbaths.

Their selections were from the best
composers. The Fullerton Brass
band rendered few selections du-

their performance. We trust the
people of Fullerton will see fit to
visit our city again.
The write up Of Dickey county,
which appeared in the Fargo Argus
Of Sunday, hardly does justice to
our city Of Oakes. 1t tells of every
advantage which Ellendale can pre-
sent and then cuts our city off with
the statement that "Oakes has a
good mill, several elevators and a
large trade with the farmers. -
What kind Of an idea would this
statement convey to an eastern read
er. The writer Of the article either
willfully sighted Oakes or else did
not know much about our city,
and for his benefit we will say that
Oakes is today the best city in the
county Or in several counties in this
part Of the country. 1t has as good
railroad facilities as Aberdeen and al
most as many trains daily, Every
branch Of business is represented
and every residence contains a fami-
ly. It is thoroughly live prosper
Gus city and is destined to beco me
the principal city of the valley be-
tween Jamestown and Aberdeen.

FULLERTON.

l.
1t is an old saying that continual
dropping Of water will fill the buck
ct: the setting Of type after type,
brings forth The Oakes Republican.
II our good friends at Oakes and
the settlers along the James River
Valley, had been i'll a right frame
OF mind to have driven oyer to
Fullerton on Thanksgiving day, and
taken glimpse Of ''The Settlers
Library" that was thrown open for
exhibition, they might have return
ed home with asperations to so and
establish a library, worthy Of its
name in their own town. But
Oakes, Ludden and Ellendale are a
peculiar people, peculiar i'll respect,
that if either Of those towns have
an entertainment, show, horse race,
ETC., these towns express a very
tender feeling and high regard for
| Yorktown and Fullerton and are
extremely desirous for the presence
Of these settlers to leaye few shek-
els in their Golfers. Not long since
over fifty persons from this section
drove to Ludden to attend the G.. A.
r. reunion. No gathering in OalSes
or Ellendale has ever taken place
but Yorktown OF Fullerton has sent
its quote. 1t is noticeable that about
election time the politicians of both
parties are extremely courteous, they
not only visit from house to house,
getting down almost on their mar
row bones, begging for votes, they
also insist upon having grand
political pow-wow in the hall OF
school house, with brass band ac-
companied by cracked orators, to
enlighten the heathen in the central
part of Dickey Co. One would
think to hear these wise men Of the
east and south talk that Yorktown
and Fullerton were in Central Africa
Yorktown and Fullerton, while
neither claim to be the Hub of the
Universe" yet they do claim in
social gathetings Of various kinds
to be on par with any township in
Dickey county. The central por-
ton of this county can justly boast
Of having the best selection Of books
known as the ''Settiers Library (cir-
culating) within fifty miles Of Full
lerton. There are more books in this
library than can be found in the
combined circulating libraries in
Dickey county. Books that no
settlement need be ashamed. Books
treating on science, history, law,
medicine, poems, travels, fiction, &c.
The Settlers Library was duly
opened on Thanksgiving day, with
appropriate exercises. Oakes, Lud-
den and Ellendale had been invited
to attend the feast, but neither
point was represented, our own
surrounding neighborhood however
filled the school building. Hon. Mr..
Rowe Of Monango, gave an excel
lent talk, music by Fullerton band,
after which the doors Of the Library
Room were thrown open and the
visitors had an opportunity Of seeing
full, round one thousand volumns
neatly placed on shelves, at the
nominal cost to the settler of Just
thirty dollars. Now Mr.. Editor if
your great city Of Oakes, Ludden or
Ellendale can tow that mark at the
same cost, let them sail in and on
your opening day Fullerton and
Yorktown will drive over and help
celebrate the occasion.
