ROADS AND BRIDGES.
Commissioners Make Some Heavy
Appropriations.

The county commissioners we're in
session on Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday of last week, and aside from
allowing large number of bills ap-
propriated several hundred dollars for
carrying on road and bridge improve
ments during the coming year.
The town of Kintire was given $3.50
as assistance in grading the road
south of the quarter corner between
sections eight and II; Sheridan was
given $50 towards building a bridge
across Clear Creek on the road to and
from Belview; Johnsonville was given
$50 to help in grading the slough at
the southeast corner of the township;
Charlestown was given $3.50 to carry
on grading between section % and
"a; North Hero was allowed $75 to as
sist in building bridge across Pelt
Creek on what is known as the Lam
berton road; and $40 was appropri-
ated for the grading of the road be-
tween Willow Lake and Shutdown

From the Alexandria Republican:
Prosecutors of M. M. Madigan, ex-
county attorney of Redwood county,
who was sent to Saltwater for forgery,
are now trying to have him barred
from practicing law in the State. The
case of Madigan's conviction was
brought about largely through spite
work, and even if he was guilty of the
crime, of which there seems to be a
doubt, there are plenty of lawyers
and other public men posing as
synonyms of virtue who are guilty of
more heinous offenses many times ov-
or than Madigap, who are fortunate
enough not to get caught. Madigan
is more sinned against than SHINING.
From the st. Peter Journal:
1t looks now as if the Supreme
Court would take Attorney Madigan's
case in hand. 1t is true that Madigan
has served term at Saltwater, but
he is none the worse for that. Those
who are going out of their way to
hound him down would probably
serve a longer term than Madigan if
they we're brought to bay. There are
lots worse men than Madigan practic-
ing law but very few more brilliant.

WON'T HOLD WATER.
Olivia Playing Horse With the
County Seat.

Liz h0uTlllo county seat IS SClll
Olivia, according to the latest reports.
On a mere technically, which will
never hold water, according to the
opinion of leading attorneys inter-
viewed on the subject, Olivia has se-
cured an injunction restraining the
county officers from moving back to
Beaver Falls. This injunction was is
sued by the court commissioner of Rem
vile county, according to report, and
if the county officers of Renville coun-
ty, desired to disregard the same they
could move themselves, as we'll as the
records back to Beaver Falls without
the slightest chance for being liable
to contempt. The fact of the matter
seems to be that the officers want to
remain in Olivia.
The grounds upon which this far
cial injunction is based is that Beaver
Falls was never the county seat of
Renville county. 1t admits that the
legislature, in 1866, passed an act to
define the boundary line of Renville
county and to provide for it's organiza-
ton and that Beaver Falls was made
a temporary county seat. The writ of
injunction claims that the law called
for an election on the latter but that,
according to the records on file, no
election was ever held and conse-
quently nothing to show that Beaver
Falls was made the permanent seat of
government tor Renville county. At
tached to this writ is an affidavit of
Perry Burch, who claims to have been
a resident of Renville county in 1866
and afterwards and that he has no
knowledge of such an election.
Attorneys here claim that Beaver
Falls was practically made the county
seat by statute of limitation, it having
been such for Is years prior to the at
tempt to remove the same. Nearly
all of them are of the opinion that the
injunction is no good, while one of
them contends that the Injunction
might hold and Olivia can retain the
county seat for several months pend
ing action on the injunction. 1t viii
eventually be dissolved and the coun-
ty seat will have to go back to Beaver
Falls.
Olivia realizes that she will never
again have an opportunity to hold on
to the county seat and is consequent
ly holding on to it as long as the law
allows.

Arnold was appointed committee to
look into the matter and report on the
same at the next meeting of the coun-
ty board in July. All other applica-
tions were laid over.
The committee appointed to inquire
into the advisability of changing the
county road to and from Morton so
that the road would remain on the
south side of the St. Louis tracks re-
ported that the railroad company had
agreed to build pile bridge 1OS feet
long and Is feet wide, provided with
wheel guards and side rails, free of
expense to the county, IN case the lat
ter would make the change. The
proposition was recommended and &C.
copied and the Board appropriated
$500 for the changing of the grade in
order to meet the bridge at either side.
The petition for the change of the
county road in New Avon was granted.

THE MADIGAN CASE.
What Papers are Saying Anent the
DiSbarment.
From the Window Reporter:


"The State bar association" SAYS
The REDWOOD GAZETTE, "has high
sense of honor when it acts to disbar
man who has been punished for an
alleged crime and is now seeking to
gain an honest livelihood and allows
man to commit offenses without ev-
en- taking note of them" Madigan is
better than many of the men practic-
ing law. He has paid the penalty OF
his offense, if he ever committed it,
and if the association would turn its
attention toward filling the Saltwater
"pen" with other lawyers who are
known for their dishonesty, it would
show more commendable elements OF
character than by prosecuting a poor
fellow after he has been punished and
has begun life over again.
From the Sleepy Eye Dispatch:
Through the efforts of some of bis
personal enemies M. NJ. Madigan oil
Redwood Falls is being still further
persecuted-this time by the State
Bar Association-and disbarment pro.
ceedings have been instituted against
him. This man Madigan who is be-
ing SO heartlessly pursued by his enc

THEIR LAST Meeting.
Banquet Spread in Honor of Rural
Teachers.

Banquet Spread in Honor of Rural
Teachers.
The North Side section of the coun-
ty teachers association held the last
meeting of the school year at the high
school in this city on Saturday of last
week. The meeting commenced about
one o'clock and there were about fifty
teachers present during the four sue
ceeding hours. The programme was
short and included the conclusions of
the various lessons and books taken
up at the beginning of the school year.
After the rendition of the pro-
gramme there was an inspection of
the random work of the pupils of the
Redwood Falls schools. The various
local teachers had decorated their
rooms for the occasion. Flowers,
MOSES and ferns were in relief. On
the blackboards were specimens of
crayon work, letter writing, etc., and
posted on the walls of the different
rooms we're manuscripts, samples of
letter writing and advanced education.
These displays we're in a measure re-
markable as they constituted. samples
of work of nearly every pupil attend
ing the local schools and showed that
all Of them we're progressing rapidly
under the direction of their different
instructors.
After the inspection the rural school
teachers were invited to a spread
given by the teachers of the Redwood
Falls schools. The spread was on a
table standing in the large hall in the
portion of the school building. The
menu card consisted of ices, cakes,
coffee, fruits, etc. The table was
ornamented with natural flowers. Fol-
lowing the spread list of toasts was

WANTS A DIVORCE.
Married Three Weeks and Then
Clubs We're Trumps.

John Fisher, farmer Sc years OF
age residing near the village of San
born has commenced an action for di-
vorce from his wife, Bertha Fisher, IS
years of age, alleging cruel and in
human treatment. Frank Clague is
attorney for the plaintiff.
According to the prayer of the
plaintiff he is afraid that the woman
will kill him. He complains that she
has already beat and abused him 80
badly that life has lost it's pleasures.
All of these beatings we're made by
the strong arms of Bertha Fisher and
the complaint does not set up any
where that clubs or irons have been
trumps in the hands of the defend
ant.
There is quite story in connection
with the affair. 1t appears that the
woman, a widowed lady, came from
Minneapolis to Lamberton last fall.
What her maiden or widowed name
was Lambertonites do not seem to
know. She came at the request of a
blacksmith named Jens Wonsyld, who
she claims, promised to marry her af-
ter her arrival in Lamberton. She
lived with him for month, as man
and wife, according to the story of
Lamberton residents, after which
time Wonsyld refused to marry her.
She appeared to be enraged over
Wonsyld's treatment and went to
Sleepy Eye where she consulted
Messrs. Somerville & Olsen with the
view of commencing a $1,000 breach
of promise case against Wonsyld. She
authorized them to go ahead with the
case and returned to Lamberton. At
ter returning, for some reason or 9TH
er, the case was dropped.
Aug. Groechel, a bricklayer and
stonemason of Lamberton, always has
his eye pealed for the turning of the
course of an American dollar, and
when he heard that the woman had
left Wonsyld he happened to think of
the reserved old farmer John Fisher,
who he had often heard express him
self that he would like to be enjoying
a double life. Groechel Immediately
wrote to Fisher and promised to get
him wife for certain consideration,
just how much is not known. Fisher
accepted and Groechel secured
promise from the widowed lady from
Minneapolis to marry the aged farm
er. So they we're married.
Three weeks to day after the mar
riage ceremony had been performed
Fisher commenced to pine for the life
of single blessedness as Mrs. Fisher
was making life intensely interesting
for him and running the Fisher home
stead with high hand. Whatever
Fisher wanted to do Mrs. Fisher We
toed aud things were at a standstill on
the Fisher farm. Mrs. Fisher fire.
quently beat him and week ago last
Saturday he called for police protec-
ton in the shape of Deputy Sheriff
>Praxel of Lambeftons who went down,
and read some law to- Mrs. Fisher.
Afterwards the two appeared before
Mr.. Clague and a mutual separation
was apparently agreed upon.
