In the last issue of this paper there
was an item purporting to be an inter-
view with Mr.. Rummell, roadmaster
of the Winona & St. Peter system.
While the body of the item contained
in substance what Mr.. Rummell said
that gentleman made no reflections on
any of the stockholders or officers of the
road, and the article did Mr.. Rummell
an injustice to that extent. His talk
on railroad extensions was from hear
say only, and was not based on any Of
fetal actions seen by him or ordered
through him. THE GAZETTE makes
the correction gladly.
Windows of local business houses are
unusually attractive at this season OF
the year. Philbrick & Co. have an at
tractive display in every window, but
one feature is more praiseworthy than
the rest. 1t is huge doll at child's
sewing machine, bent on hard work at
the machine. J. r. Wolff & Co. have
neat display of fancy dress goods and
shoes, Francois & Schmahl have clev-
er display of decorated china, handker-
chiefs, etc. The drug stores, The Fair,
the grocery houses, the jewelry estab-
lishments, etc., all have appropriate
holiday displays. They will probably
all be- given retouching during the
coming week.

train north, and arrived here as abov

Farmers are cautioned against usin!
the wheat not threshed until after tn
Thanksgiving storm for seed mex
spring. THE GAZETTE has been in
formed by a well-known wheat maj
that such wheat is not likely to pre-
duce any crop-that while it Nigh
sprout it will not go very far above tn
ground. Our informant points back t
time when Clinton Fisk was man
ager of the Whitcomb, now Willar
farm, and who sowed several hundre
acres of wheat threshed after just sue
storm as we enjoyed during Thanks
giving week. The grain sprouted, grey
about a couple Of inches and the
turned yellow to die. Farmers know
, ing anything to the contrary are II
, quested to send in the information t
The GAZETTE.
A meeting is scheduled to be he'll
here to-day for the purpose of subscrit
