Nor ALTOGETHER RAw.-Here
is a story of a raw recuit who prov
ed rather dangerous one to joke
with. An officer approached and
asked for his rifle.
"Let me see your rife"
The raw recruit handed over his
rife and q pleased smile stole over
his face. As the officer received
the weapon he said in q tone Of
deep disgust:
you're @ fine soldier. You've
given up your rifle. and now what
are you going to do?"
The young fellow turned pale,
and putting his hand in his pocket
drew ont big knife, and preparing
for business said in a voice that
could not be misunderstood.
"Gi' me that rife, or I'll bore
a hole through you in a minute. "
The officer instantly decided not
to play any further with the raw
recruit. and the rife was prompt
~ surrendered.

FOR PRESIDENT

FOR VICE PRESIDENT
ARTHUR SEWELL.
FREE COINAGE is TO I.


Mr.. Borah stated a truth
that ought to put to shame
every Mckinley supporter in
Idaho, Tuesday night, when
he said that he and Mr.. Haw-
ley were speaking to the peo-
pie of Idaho under peculiar
circumstances, bordering on
the absurd, in that they were
arguing the cause of silver in
a state that ought to need no
instruction on this question. :"
And it is SO. But it seems,
there is a large element in this
state who are against its best
interests, and money is beng
spent lavishly to make show
ing for Mckinley here on cleo
ton day. We trust Messrs-
Borah and Gum will be able
to convince the Mckinley sup
porters in this state of their
suicidal policy

spoke at Paris to large audience. The
next day they addressed the people of
Liberty and at ight Montpelier citizens

5. meeting house was comfortably filed
when DIR. Hoover introduced ]. H. Haw-
ley as the first speaker. He gave brief
history of the populist-democratie con-
vention recently held in Boise and read
kilograms and letters showing how the
national chairmen of both these parties
desires the return OF senator Dubois to
the United States senate.
Nj. Borah spoke only short time,

This, Friday evening Jos. Gum,

gagged for both events.
George Bourne of Cokeville has

a good business and Mr.. Bourne

urday evening and about the 18th

DEAR .SIR:-It would seem that my
actions during the present political cam

people of Bear Lake county and the
state OF Idaho my position, but it has
come to my notice that different parties
claim | am gold mckinley republi
can, hasng their authority, | under

in the Eoise Statesman. This state
menr is absolutely false and in no wise
represents my position.
ALWAYS have felt since full inyestiga-
ton, and still feel, that silver is the par.
amount issue; thai its free and unlim.
tied coinage is neees sary to the pros
perity of the great mass of all the people,
especially those who toll Tor their daily
bread and, being their friend, | could
not, and be honest, do otherwi than
endorse the cause OF silver, and shall
exert every honest effort for its success
and the success of those candidates who
feel as have expressed myself as feel

No man who takes a candid view of
the situation would expect the coun-
try to enter upon an era of prosperity
at one bound. 1t would hardly be de-
sirable could it be done. But pros
perity. after the severe depression we
have experienced is matter of slow
growth. Moreover this is about the
worst season OF the year for any great
advance to be made as it is the period
right between the winter and summer
trade of jobbers and manufacturers.
Taking it all in all, the advance which
has so far been made along the line
toward better times is a matter for
congratulation and indicates healthy
state for business with the opening of
spring.

IMPROVEMENTS WANTED.
What the Normal School Would Like
From the Legislature at Its
Coming Session.
More Room Needed in the Building
And the Annual Appropriation
Should Be Increased.

AS stated at the meeting of the
Commercial club last night, the Nor
NAL school will ask for, an appropri-
alton from the coming session of the
legislature. In the first place, an in
crease of 5000 inthe annual appropria-
tion will be asked for, in order that
the school may be in position to ac-
cOmplish the full work of which it is
capable.
The two east extensions are now one
story high, and it is very much desired
that another story be added and other
additional space be secured. 1t is
estimated chat this can be accom-
plished at an expense OF $4,000 New
books and the replacing of old books
in the library will take about $1,000,
and the construction of cases, etc., in
the museum will cost $500.
In case the legislature should decide
to adopt the recommendation of the
State Normal board for continuous
session of the Normal schools the
year around, the Mankato school
would require $4,000 to be add
ed to the permanent appropria-
tion in order to secure the services
Of additional teachers.
These requests are all reasonable
and are such as ought to be readily
granted. The Commercial club COM
mittee can be of great service in look
after this as well as any other mat
tiers in which Mankato is interested
at the coming session of the legisla-
ture. Undoubtedly the Normal
school and finance committees of the
two branches of the legislature will
visit the school in this city during the
session, following the custom, and the
committee and others can be of great
service in presenting the needs of the
school in their proper light. 1t might
be proper here to suggest that the
business mems organizations of the
oJher cities of the state where Nor
NAL schools are located generally ten
der the legislators a reception and
banquet on the occasion of their BIZ
ennial visits.
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1896-12-18

The matter of greatest interest to
our citizens before the county board
today was that of constructing foot
ways along the Minnesota river
bridge. The matter was presented to
the board this forenoon by Aid. Him
melman for the council, w. L. Com
stock, w. n. Plymat and FL. P. Chris
Jensen for the Commercial club.
The matter was talked over at
some length, the same arguments be-
ing advanced that our people are all
familiar with, and nothing new was
brought out.
A motion that the board view the
bridge at train time was carried, and
the board went to the bridge in body
at l :15 p. M. and remained until after
the 1:27 p. m. train had gone. All
were impressed with the danger as
the bridge now is, and the need for
walks. The matter was to come up
this afternoon.
The FREE PRESS asked each of the
commissioners this afternoon how he
felt in regard to an appropriation be-
ing made to help pay the expense of
walks, and the following replies were
given:
Robt. Roberts-"I think that the
board will vote the money desired, as
all the members see the need for the
walks"
Chas. Craft am in favor of help
ing the matter along. The only thing
is how to do it, in view of the fact
that no levy has been made for the
road and bridge fund next year, and
there is no money in that fund now"
Robt S. Hughes, chairman-"The
money should be voted not as favor
to the city, but as it's just due. The
city pays one-third of the taxes of the
county, and is entitled to share of
the money to be expended. When /
ask for an appropriation for my dis
trict l ask it because the district is
entitled to it, and it is the same way
with the CITY,"
James Mountain-'I am in favor of
granting the request, and believe that
there is no doubt but that the board
will take favorable action"
A. M. Hannay-'I understand the
necessity for the walks, and the only
thing that stands in the way is the
fact that there is no money in the
road and bridge fund and no provis-
ion has been made for any for next
year. l made request for little
money for repairing bridge in my
district at the last meeting, but it
was refused on this ground If the
board still takes that ground, L don't
see how / can consistently vote for
this appropriation under the circum-
stances"
