The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1891-04-09

These lovely spring days bring sug-
gestions of much needed raking and
cleaning of yards.
County Supt. Wait, of Lyon county,
was united in marriage with Miss
Margaret Downie, of Lyons, on Tues
day of last week.
Prof Kirk, principal of Redwood's
schools in years gone by, bought 40
acres of Southern California lands
while Mr.. Peter Smith was in Cali
fornia.
NJ. B. Albeit removed his family
and household effects to the F. A.
Gray house last week. With four
Grand Army men on adjoining lots,
that street might now be christened
Veterans Row.
Judge Baldwin has been appointed
municipal judge, under our new char
ter. His court will have jurisdiction in
cases of less than $500, and in time will
probably haye large class of business
to adjudicate.
Mr. Lance reports a good demand
for registered bulls this spring. Farm
ers are alive to the fact that cattle will
bring good prices in the near future,
and the man who heads his herd with
good bull now is the man who will
make the money.
Lu Verne Herald: Miss Maggie
Mccarthy left for Redwood Falls We'd
nesday morning where she will assist
her brother Matt in the management
of Hotel Francois. The house will be
| open to the public next Monday and
| under the supervision of Matt and
Maggie Mccarthy will be second to
none.
Young Gibbs, who went to Chicago
for treatment at the Pasteur hospital
last month, in company with his faith
er, was in town Monday. Both Mr..
Gibbs and his son were given thorough
treatment, and are relieved from any
fear of future trouble on account of
their exposure to rabies. Since last
accounts, steer and a sheep belong
ing to Mr.. Gibbs have died, after show
ing strong manifestations of rabies.
This good advice is given by the
Pipestone Star: 4While planting trees
this spring do not neglect to start some
evergreens. They add beauty to a
landscape and are the only good wind
break. The Scotch pine is the cheap
est and easiest to raise, makes an ex-
cellent windbreak, and if we'll cultivat-
ed will grow as fast as the boxelder.
Norway spruce is finer looking tree
and grows nearly as rapidly"
The w. G.. T. u. of this town has
now home of it's own, having rented
two rooms in Mr.. Philbrick's brick
block which they hope will be con-
venience and benefit to many. The
public library will be located in one
room, which will be open at stated
times announced later. The other
room will be always open, and ladies
from the country are invited to use it
as waiting room. It will be we'll sup
| piled with good literature, and they
hope to make it pleasant place for
the young people to spend their ev-
enings, not excluding the middle aged
and elderly. In short every one is
welcome at all times
There was large attendance at the
anniversary exercises at Huntington
hall last Monday evening. The pro-
gram included history of the post
read by R. ]. Tyler; addresses by
Elder Harrison and Judge Baldwin
recitations by Misses Fannie and Ma.
rion Everett; singing by male quar-
tette-Messrs. Martin and Buxton
tenors, Hitchcock and Houck bassos
and by mixed quartette- Misses Car
rothers and Fannie Everett, Messrs
Houck and Martin. The veterans anc
all others in attendance appeared t.
enjoy themselves, and the occasion
was pronounced success throughout
We have interviewed E. NJ. Brooks
who says that he thinks it unnecessary
to prepare an article in reply to VIII
bur Holden, as few probably believe
his statement. Had he been in tow
when Holden's statement first ap
peared, he would have reviewed it. A.
!. to the jury, he considers it the one in
stance in lifetime where the jury triet
the case submitted to them individual
ly, each man for himself weighing tn
, evidence, and arriving at his own con
clusions,. untrameled by pleas of at
. torneys or anything else. Being goo,
, judges of fact they quickly arrived a
. righteous conclusion, and that
why it hurts. He thinks Holden vii
hang. He considers Gov. Merriam on
of the firmest men he ever had any
; thing to do with. The governor toll
him he should not be governed by pc
titions. The law, he said, defined hi
5 duties.
