health, but is not quite as heavy as whe1
he left. He had hard luck with his grain
crop this season.
Mr.. Martin, the superintendent of con
struction of the creamery is in the city
1t is his purpose to get at work at once
and lay the foundations, sink the well
and do other similar work before thu
frost solidifes the ground.
Alexander Moor marketed herd o
thirty-fve bred hogs this morning. A. O
Mattison being the purchaser. Mr.. Mat
tenu is shipping carload of hogs but
has not found as fine i lot as these in
his trips through the county.
Mr.. Petit disclaims going to SLEEP
under the sopori6c effects of Mr.. Willis
speech. He says he was merely spell,
bound. This is the first time on record
where a spell-binder threw in audible
snores to help out the delusion.
IfEi Perkins wasn't the first to ''get
there" yet he is getting there with both
feet these days. He will get there on
Wednesday November 10th, and lecture
at the opera house. Our advice to all
our readers is to "get there" and hear
Eli.
Miss Belle Reeder, of Mankato, is in
the city soliciting special line of ad
yertising from our business men. The
plan is to write up the business in poeti-
cal form, covering che entire interests of
the city as far as possible, all to be pub
lished simultaneously. The HERALD be-
speaks for her the kindest consideration.
There was a good natured crowd at
the municipal court room on Tuesday
evening awaiting returns from the cleo
ton. Republicans, democrats and ALI
ance men guyed each other numerically
as dispatches favorable and unfavorable
were read. The returns came in slowly,
and it was pretty tedious work from
waiting the next unsatisfactory bulletin.
The band, at its recent election chose
the following officers: A. o. Scrlvener,
business manager; Director and instruc-
tor, John W. Oehl; secretary and treas
urer, P. Bert Hansen. The band will be
in excellent shape again soon, but would
like few more members. Any young
men, permanently located, who would
like to join the band, should apply to
Mr.. Scrivener. The band expects to give
a few concerts this winter.
Now that active political work is over,
let us give some attention to some other
and more popular and profitable diver
version. The HERALD would renew its
suggestion of the organization of liter
airy society. Two evenings in a month
could be pleasantly devoted to discussing
some topic OF interest, to exchanging
views upon subjects which would be
both interesting and profitable. Loosely
drawn articles of association would be
sufficient for the purpose, and there IS
no question but that such an organiza-
rion, once started, would be perpetual.
Why not call meeting and at least dis
cuss the feasibility.
The school children held an election on
Tuesday, conducted in due form, for
governor only, with the following result:
w. r. Merriam, 255.
Thomas Wilson, SO. ,..
S. M. Owens, 26.
Up. Pinkham, 80.
The rising generation may be relied
npon to recruit the g. o. p.
One of the incidents of the election was
quite characteristic. A little fellow, the
son of republican, was observed yot-
ing for Wilson. When taken to task for
it, he said he was republican, but one
of the boys-the son of a prominent DEM
ocratic politician, had promised him
some gum if he would vote for Wilson.
