Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1890-04-04
TOWN TALK,

try for beet sugar. I'm going to expert
ment with sugar beets this year.
Strauss Bros: Business is a little
quiet now, but we had a good trade dur
ing the winter. Can't complain much.
J. NJ: Quinn: Goodbye boys; my
only wish is that all my friends will
prosper and that a bright future will
open out before them.
w. T. Perkins: I had five teachers be-
fore me Tuesday. They passed a good
examination and I think they will all get
second grade certificates.
Booth Jr., clerk of the United States
circuit court: I am now entering the
cases of North Dakota on the docket.
Think there are about 100 cases.
Kuntz & Fischer: "W~ienerwurst' is
having a popular run at our place. Most
everybody comes in and buys a wiener
wurst sandwich. They're boss. Have
one?
Charles Kupitz: Trade? Trade is
good. I tell you what's a fact-my trade
! was greater by Is per cent. last
month than during the same month last
year.
Ed. Goodkind: We have a big stock of
liquors of all kinds on hand and selling
off very cheap. We don't want to ship
away any more than we can possibly
avoid.
Colonel Whitford: There may be q few
good, straight republicans in this city
and I want to be counted among them.
I voted a clean straight ticket last fall
and will do it again.
John Ho%llembaek: What a glorious
morning; no climate like this. I wish I
could say as much for Duluth. T wish
this country, in a business way, was
equal to it's magnificent climate.
Grocer Foster: I'm something like a
ship adrift on the wide ocean without a
rudder now. Titus is sick and Reade
has quit. The latter will soon leave this
city to look up a location in the west.
E. H. Wilson: Heard the TRIBUNE was
going to discontinue issuing a daily edi-
ton this summer; how about it? That
would be a great advertisement for the
capital of North Dakota-no daily news
paper.
Frank Moorhouse: Do you know
there are 10000 Sons of Veterans now
organized in the United States. We are
going to have a grand order in a few
years when our G.. A. R. daddies have
passed away.
Street Commissioner McCue: Fort is a
good man for city justice, but as a
democrat of course I can't vote for him.
If I did, some of the boys would raise a
big howl. However, my hostility will
not hurt him much.
G. 81. Dahl: You will observe I did
not say I would get off the other ticket;
I simply said I'd support the ticket
headed by Oscar Will; I didn't say I
would decline the nomination on the
ticket headed by Baker.
. NJ. P. Slattery: You see I'm entirely
out of the political whirl now, but just as
good a democrat as ever. My store
claims my whole attention now and bust
ness is good. Sold lots of coal last win
ter; selling it yet. Guess the people are
anticipating a jump in prices and laying
in a supply for a 'rainy" day.
Phrenologist Harris: No, 7 am sorry to
say that none of the candidates for city
Offices have come around to me yet to
have their craniums examined. Perhaps
some of them won't bear examination.
Everybody was talking about my pecu-
liar announcement in the TRIBUNE to-day
and it has evidently made a hit.
f. E. s. Pierce: Did you hear the latest
on Dahl? They say he had his head ex-
amined; bumps of unusual size we're
found on one side; their significance
couldn't be explained by Professor Har-
ris at first but finally decided the bumps
we're caused by a circus act-from a fall
sustained while e~ndeavoring to ride two
horses-political-see? On both tickets.
That's a good one; put it in the paper.
xMa-a1 Register Rea: Yes, it's an ele-
Ets of tiRSfmate. It's just a question Of
sNorthable rainfall. I like Bismarck;
tRgre is something peculiar about the
city. Everybody is active-strung up to
q high pitch-money circulates rapidly
why, a dollar started at one end of town
will 60 the whole length of Main street
before night, and everybody who handles
it seems to get more than a dollars
worth of pleasure.
Colonel Little: Two-thirds of the bust
ness men I met in ST. Paul said we were
foolish not to accept the lottery PROPOSE
ton. One man said he couldn't under
stand how it was that North Dakota
