Walter Henzic is learning the ropes
as a counter jumper at Georges shoe
store, and will attend to his german
customers.
Mr.. and Mrs. George started for
Chicago, Saturday. George will look

Rev. j. NJ. Thurston was renewing
"auld acquaintance here the past
few days. He reports the family at
Window well and prosperous.
Rev. Cone having gone to the annu-
al conference at Mankato, there will
be no preaching at the NJ. E. church
next Sunday. Elder Cones people
are expecting the return of their pas
tor for another year, and we trust that
their expectations may be realized.
Editor S. w. Hays, of the Reveille,
received notice of an appointment in
the U. S. Internal revenue department
last Monday, with orders to report at
Chicago Oct. LIST. He left for Chicago
yesterday. We congratulate Mr.. Hays
on his release from newspaper routine,
and hope that his new position may
prove pleasant one.
Redwood people who attended the
Morton fair Tuesday, report that it
made very suspicious beginning, and
that Redwood county was well repre-
sented in the stock departments, Tyson
& Dickinson showing some of their
Polled Angus cattle, and G. Charter
his horses. G. w. Vaugm's horse won
in the freefor-all trot.
The nomination of S. D. Peterson
for Senator from this district was de-
handed by the Brown county dele
gates this year, and of course it was
useless for Redwood county Republi-
cans to stand out against it. Some of
them tried it eight years ago, and aid
ed by the GAZETTE did what they
could to defeat him and got badly
left, Peterson getting 172 majority in
the county, in spite of the fight made
against him in his own party. After
that experience Redwood county Re
publicans appear to be disposed tc
take their Peterson straight, after Sc
curing his promise of allegiance tc
the interests of Senator Davis, when
that gentleman's term expires.
As J. R.. Lankard came here from
Jim Bakers county of Blue Earth, of
course he has become deeply impress
ed with belief that farming doesn't
pay. Last summer he purchased a
quarter section in the western part OF
Redwood Falls township, and this
fall harvested 2,O31 bushels of wheat
from 100 acres, and 400 bushels OF
flax from field of breaking on the
same quarter. At present market
prices his first crop is worth consider.
ably more than the total cost of his
land. No doubt Jim Bakers style
of farming-trying to raise q paying
crop of votes in the second district fol
professional office-seeker,- doesn't
pay, but then that is rather pool
hind anyway.
