The Winona Times, in its county
ticket, prints the name of Lincoln Cell
as candidate for county surveyor
which is untrue, Us the Times people
knew when they put in type the official
date for assessor in the second district,
The case of Francis G. Walker vs.. Peter
Moe, over the ownership of horse, was
tried before Justice Flick on Monday of
last week, and resulted in verdict for
Walker, John Parker appeared for Mr.,
Walker and H. A. Armstrong for Mr..
Moe.
Capt: Flick is an expert "marryer'
now. But they do say, that when he
performed his first ceremony, he was so
much ratified that he came near marrying
Mrs. Flick to the bridegroom, who
couldn't speak anything but German.
The Winona Times says Braddock can
speak Russian What's the use of
lying? Braddock cannot speak Russian
can speak it. Mr.. Braddock as we are
Informed by men who know the German
language well, speaks very poor quality
of German. ~
The writer has frequently been asked
what was in the vile paragraph that
Armstrong wrote IN letter to man in
was as follows: "Mr Worst is in Bis.
mnrck trying to get himself elected presi-
dent pro tenn. Of the senate. If the sena-
tors thought as little of him as you and
dO, HE WOULDN'T BE - HIGH IN A
wINDsToRM." The word left blank is not
fit to appear in print.
1t broke Armstrong; heart when he
lost his grip on the county treasurer's Of
flee. His scheme to have the Republican
convention put him in the way Of getting
his hands on it again was quite cute"
But Lee will knock it out by vote of
two to one. No chattel-mortgagc shark
ought to have, control of the county treas
ury, any way.
Mr.. Klynstra, the democrat aud prohi-
bitonist whom Van Beck has up for
county judge, was in town last week.
TO hear him talk about "the party" one
would think that he was republican,
which he is not and never was. A nice
crowd-Braddock Klynstra, Hasper and
Ouwcrsloot-to represent the. Republican
party of this county.
Voters, don't forget that the gang tried
to beat Il. P. Lee out of his office, in l'92,
and ma dc him expend about hundred
dollars in successfully fighting them in
court. Then they wished to defeat aim
by throwing out one precinct And in this
year of our Lord 1894 the man who put
up the job to throw out that precinct
wants to get possession of Lees office as
deputy treasurer. But he will never do it.
There was big lot of Indians in town
Thursday. They were returning north
from visit TO Standing Rock. In the
the river, near Peter Shiers The flames
ran along through the meadow, and 1t re-
quired hard fghtingto save Mr.. Shier's
hay. If 1t had not been for the fact that
the meadow had been moved and the
grass was short, the hay would certainly
have been burned, The closeness of the
fight will be shown when we state that
Mr.. Shier had his eyebrows and his hair
singed by the flames.
There was big dance and surprise
party at N. L. Shorman's, Emmonsburg,
on Wednesday of last week, to celebrate
the birthday of Mrs. Shorman's mother.
The party took place in the large, roomy
building recently erected by Mr., Shor.
man. Capt. and Mrs. Flick, who were
present, spoke highly to the writer as to
the ability of Mate and his good wife
as entertainers Before the party broke
up, the company Clipped in nearly $50
to buy rocker arm chair for Mrs. Shor-
mans mother, who is over seventy years
old.
Every voter IN Emmons county, re-
gardless of party ought to cast his ballot
for John Worst. In ability he is the peer.
of any man in the state. He is an honor
to the county. The Slope ought to 90
solid for him, He was one of the men
who formed the combine four years ago
that prevented Jud La Moure from re-
opening the capitalremoval question.
All through the campaign, in every.
speech, he has had the courage to ex-
press his convictions on the resubmission
question. The leaders of the prohibits
tionists are against him for this reason.
But the Missouri Slope will offset their
efforts. Let every voter in Emmons
county cast his ballot for our talented
fellow.citizen and resubmission leader,
John H. Worst. The county is pracu-
cally solid for resubmission; and MR..
| Worst has been its earnest champion
from the beginning. Let it be written
after Nov. 8, 'th Lieutenant Governor
Worst, OF EmmonS County, 5bss
