Great Northern NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of
Train Service.

4Idlu o6TVICG.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Jan. Is, 'Q1.
Mr.. II. W. STONE, Chairman, and 9TH
ers, Morris. Mimi:
GENTLEMEN:-You our petition of Jan,
9th to the president Of CUR company
has been referred to me.
There is no intention on the part of
this company to impose hardships nor
to curtail the service, except when the
operation of trains does not pay their
cost, it becomes necessary to reduce
such service.
Trains Nos. I and s, prior to the
drouth in North and South Dakota,
paid the cost of running them; this,
however, is not the case now. For
the first eleven months of 1890 the
actual loss in running these trains be-
tween st. Paul and Breckenridge ag-
gregated $40. .237.59, and this does not
include the cost of wear and tear,
maintenance nor interest charge.
AS soon as the normal conditions in
the Dakotas are restored the train can
be made to pay.
To operate these trains would re-
qQire us to advance the rates Of fare
OF increase therates of freight, which
would be an injustice.
l am personally acquainted with
large number of merchants of your
city and l know them to be reasonable
men. If you desire further facts and
figures to satisfy YQg Of the force Of
our Statements ! will be very glad to
meet two OF three of your citizens
and viii furnish transportation to st,
Paul.
The company desires at all times to
have the most cordial relationship
exist between its patrons and itself
and dislikes ut any time To take steps
to any extent whalexer affecting sueh
relations, but the action of the board
in this matter has been based solely
upon the grounds that the company
did not earn the actual cost of running
the train.
The same Is respectfully submitted.
A. J.. MoHLER,
Gen'l Manager.

The ladies of the Morris w. 6. L. u
are desirous of supplying the waiting
room at the depot with religious and
temperance reading. Friends who
have papers or periodicals treating on
thess subjects or any other important
events of the day, are kindly asked to
leave them with Mrs. Orrin Fuller,
when they are through reading them,
and she will see that they are placed
where they will be read.
MRS. o. b. FULLER,
Sup't of Depot Work, Morris, Mimi
LADIES OF THE w. G. T. u:
Pardon me. but l have few sug-
gestions to make. Would it not be
better and suit the readers quite as
well if you would have little origi-
nal matter in the temperance column
every week-something about the
temperance work that is being done
here in our own little cityi Give the
readers practical demonstration of |
work that is being accomplished, as
well as selected reading matter in the
w. &. L. U. column in the TRIBUNE.
Let the outsiders learn through the
temperance column what is being done
here. The field is already ripe for the
harvest, but where are the reapers!
Only in clippings-repeating what
others have said, which all who read
the daily news have seen long before 1
Its reprint in our local paper. Let us
hear from you, ladies; make sugges-
lions; give outsiders some new ideas
IN regard to this great temperance ,
work. You certainly possess the abil.
ty, then why not exercise that ability!
would also suggest that we have
some attractive place of amusement s
or the boys and young men, to keep
hem away from saloons. Have places
# innocent amusement, so attractive
hat they will overbalance the tempt
'tion, however great, to enter these
lens of infamy and vice. Open our
louses, if necessary; give home en- :
ertainments, anything to keep the
outh from the tempter's power.
Boys frequent saloons many times
ut of idle curiosity, at first; after
7ards, finding attractions, such us
hrowing dice, playing cards. billiards
nd whatever games there may be in
ne saloon, and then, after a little,
'ant something to quench their thirst;
lst a few drops, as it were, at first;
len the desire increases until it be-
omes unquenchable and then follows
lsgrace, ruin and a drunkard's 8 grave. -
Let us hear from the ladies of the u

If any of our farmers have dogs
that are inclined to kill sheep, here is
sure way of curing them of the
vicious habit: Tie the dog to the
head of ram, let eight feet of rope
intervene, and place them in Il clear
field The repeated charges Of the
fam will so disgust the dog that he
will ever after avoid sheep.

Death of Emanuel Good.

| Died in st. Paul, Thursday evening
February 5th. Mr.. Emanuel Good
brother of J. ID. Good of this city.
The st. Paul Daily News of last Fri
day has the following notice of Mr.
Goods death:
AT $40 yesterday evening Mr..
Emanuel Good, one of st. Paul's ear
ly commercial spirits, died from the
effects of a severe attack of typhoid
fever. to combat which he had not
sufficient strength, owing to nervous
prostration caused by terrible ex-
perience during the Lake Gervais cy-
clone last summer.
Mr.. Good was born in Pennsylvania
in 1927 and came to Minnesota in 1850,
his first work being in connection
with the steamboat line. In 1851 he
entered the employ of the old North
American Fur Company, in the lum-
Der department., under Messers Borup
and Oakes, remaining and working
his way up until, at the end of thirty.
two years of faithful service, he re-
tired from the superintendecy to
which he had risen. Latterly he was
senior partner of the firm of Good &
Schumacher. Integrity and industry
were the supports of his character,
and to men of his caliber and influ-
ence st. Paul owes it's presents proud
position.

The Morris Ranuuat.

There is now every Indication that
the proposed banquet at The Norris
on the 9th inst. will be largely at
tended and grand affair. Occasionly
some one suggests that the price of
tickets is too high, but when reminded
that the banquet is being gotten up
Tor the benefit of the proprietors, as
we'll as an entertainment. for those
who attend, and that there would not
be any ''benefit" if the price of tick
cts was fixed at the actual cost of the
entertainment, the objections to the
price are at once withdrawn.
There will be Il large number pre-
sent from abroad, among whom will
be a good many who formerly resided
here.
1t should be borne in mind by our
citizens that in most towns where
first class hotels have boen built
bonus in the shape of either money
or building site has been asked and
generally granted; but The Morris
was constructed. furnished and opened
to the public and not one cent of con-
tribution was asked of the citizens of |
Morris.
This being the case it is eminently
proper that we should tender the pro-
prietors of the above hotel a substan-
tial benefit. And this is what is pro.
posed to be done on the 9th inst.
Oar business men and all others who
can possibly do so, should make it
point to he present. That grand
social timo will be had there is no
doubt.
