the Gazette Office.
ICWork on the court house foundation
is suspended, the concrete being all
ready for the masonry.
At w. H. Lance's, last evening, the
Ladies' Industrial Society of the
Christian church held a social and
supper, and as usual the company en-
joyed a good time.
Calamity orators in Kansas are
styled "calams" for short. They might
be further appropriately abbreviated
here simply to "clams," if they were
only ever known to shut up. Perhaps
they will, after election.
That loyal Republican corner of
Redwood county included in Delhi,
Kintire and Swedes Forest, has not
for years, if it ever lad, been repre-
sented at the court house in any salar-
led office. That is one reason why
Andrew Anderson will get big vote
from that quarter.
Music and fun are the special attrac-
tons at the entertainment to be given
by Smiths Vaudevilles at Huntington
hall next Thursday evening. As music
and fun are the winning cards for the
Redwood Falls public, the hall will
doubtless be filed. The entertainment
will come just in time to enable people
to laugh away the acrimony of the
campaign.
After two terms, Geo. L. Evans had
a clear 500 majority over both demo
cratic and prohibition candidates two
years ago. With H. F. Clipfell, a con-
scientious farmer prohibitionist and al
lancer, and an enterprising Sanborn
citizen, F. c. Posi-, in the lists against
him Georges majority may be reduced
somewhat, but his plurality is safe
enough to take heavy odds upon it.
He is a winner and a capable official.
Ed. Devereaux was called out at a
recent political meeting at Delhi, at
which Jas. Arnold was the chief speak
er, and report says that Ed. talked
back with such effect as to win p enty
of applause, as well as raise laugh,
as he always has way of doing. J.
r. Lankerd was also asked to stand
up and declare his Republicanism,
which he did with good effect, as he
has on several occasions during the
campaign.
The Sleepy Eye Dispatch gives the
speech of A. D. Stewart in that place a
hard roast. If Andrew stated that he
was not prohibitionist, or that che
would be chased up and down the dis
trict with bags of gold," he deserves
rebuke. But as he has always stood
by his principles and shown common
sense heretofore, we are 10th to be-
lieve that the campaign has so turned
his head as the Dispatch intimates. 1t
is too near election day to give such
statements credence against Mr. Stew
arts previous record. But this will be
an educational campaign" for our
Andrew.
Drs. Pease and Gibson are riding
out into the country almost every day,
but are not saying word about their
political fences, for the office of cor
oner. Notwithstanding the enormous
perquisites at stake, the two NJ. DIS
maintain show at least of indiffer-
ence as to the result. AS Doc Pease
has loaned the Gazette about 'steen
buckets of coal, his opponent might
use this fact as a palpable effort to
subsidize the press. N. B.-We stole
it while the doctor was out in the coun-
try, and his record is therefore unim-
peached and unimpeachable on that
score.
For county treasurer we have q
young Republican who was educated
in the Office by A. A. Wilson and j. S
G. Homer, and was thus thoroughly
familiar with his duties before his first
election two years ago. He will enjoy
an easy reelection, although Alfred
Swoffer, his opponent on the democrat
ic and alliance tickets, will not allow
him to have a walk-over. Emil Kuenzli
the Republican candidate, is son Of
B. Kuenzli, the successful dairyman Of
Homer, and is therefore farmer boy
Mr.. Swoffer is one of the principal
merchants of Walnut Grove, and will
poll more than his party strength
down that way.
St. John On. b. Daily Telegraph
Smiths Vaudeville company had a fine
reception last evening, and the per
Torrance was remarkable for it's infn
ite variety. To say that it pleased
would be putting it mildly, and each
act came on with a promptness thai
gave the large audience no time for re-
Election. The programme would, I'm
der ordinary circumstances, have re
quired over three hours. The bell ring
ing, the musical glasses, the harl
playing and pantomimime, Humpty
, and the Elephant, were the main feat
ures, and there were interspersed ,
great range of specialties, including
, Harmachis, wonder worker, songs O
many kinds, and instrumental selec
tons.
, 1t is always best not to under esti
mate competitor in politics or any
thing else. If Andrew Anderson wa
