But Misrepresentation Was a Thing He
Could Not Brook.
He is an energetic young man, but a
very poor hand at a typewriter. That
he will get along we'll in the world
there is little doubt, but it will never
be owing to his skill as an amanuensis.
He had heard that Mr. Dazer, a mer-
chant of established reputation, wanted
a typewriter to take dictation, and as
he needed the salary he resolved to try.
The fact that Mr.. Dazer suffered did
not prevent that gentleman from desir-
ing to dictate his correspondence. On
the contrary, he thought that this meth
cd would, by compelling him to talk
slowly and distinctly, assist him in con-
quering his unfortunate habit.
''I'm r-r-rather particular about my
LETTERS" Mr.. Dazer said warningly.
II hope you will be careful to take ev-
erything d-down exactly as s-s-say it. !"
eyes, SIR" the young man answered,
with an air of assurance that was pure
hypocrisy.
''Th-there won't be any use Of your
hurrying yourself" Mr.. Dazer added.
II always t-t-talk s-slowly, and th-this
typewriter s-scheme is only an expert
ment anyhow. If it d-d-doesn't sue
coed, I'll p-p-put you to work at some-
thing else.''
It did not take very long for Mr..
Dazer to get through with the first let
ter. The typewriter novice ratified away
at it in manner that, Judging by the
ear alone, was very convincing. He
trusted to luck to give him an oppor-
tunity to copy the paper before it was
submitted for inspection. But the charm
Of novelty was over the undertaking,
and the merchant said as he held out
his hand:
"Lrl-let me s-see it.
With sinking heart the young man
handed the letter over. The merchant
read little, looked astonished, read a
line or two more and became visibly in
dignant. Taking his glasses off, he
swayed them by the string and looked
pensive.
II s-suppose you thought it was your
duty ito do this?''
"Of course.

she wished to convert by her speech at
Renville last Friday night. 1t seems
she called all the farmsrs who voted
for Republican candidates, "dough-
heads and little goldbug cusses," and
it is thought she was a little extrava-
giant in the use of her language.
Apout two hundred citizens of this
county went to Redwood Falls last
Thursday and participated in the
grand Republican demonstration
given there in the evening, and heard
the speech of Prof. McCleary, which
was pronounced the best calculation
of the money question ever given in
this part of the country. All are now
loudly singing the praises of this dis
tinguished gentleman.
A sensation has just been created at
Olivia which has just been reported to
this correspondent. 1t seems that two
young fellows by the name of Fred
ericks and Gibbs on last Saturday
night seeded very thickly with must
ard the farm of A. H. Donnelly, two
miles north of that place. This was
done as a sort of revenge as Mr.. Don
nelly was road-master last year and
compelled these young sprouts to pull
all mustard on the highway along the
farm they had rented, and now for the
sole purpose of gratifying their spite
against Mr.. Donnelly they have sown
his $50 acre farm to this noxious weed
of which fact Mr.. Donnelly has abso-
! lutte proof. A warrant has been sworn
out but the boys are in hiding and
the officer has not been able to find
them yet. Every effort will be made
to bring these lads to justice, and to
give them the full penalty of the law
The whole neighborhood is very in
dignant over this foul piece of work
and the boys have no sympathizers
whatever, as the crime perpetrated
was wholly unwarranted.
