The "Listner" in the Window Re-
porter has the following cheerful
words to soy ofour former: townsunan,
Mr.. G. H. Smith, state insurance com
missioner. 20, yes, I ran up to see
G. H.. Smith. He was comfortable,
and happy as clam, and just to
''show ne that he could walk" he
came half way down the stairs with
me when I left the house. That was
worth the trip to St. Paul. I heard
that G. H. had been fighting with the
grim monster for long time, but he
disproved it in less than no time.
He is still worth half dozen
whimpering fellows who lie down
and die because they haven't energy
enough to get we'll. G. H. shows the
evidence of suffering and sickness,
and has grown little older. than he
looked a year ago, when I saw him
last in the capitol, but now is gaining,
and hopes that in a few weeks he
will be able to go to the capitol and
take hand in the campaign with the
boys. He wanted to be remembered
to his old friends in Window, and
when they go. to the city he will
be glad to see them. Though still
confined to the house, he is cheerful
and happy, and confident of winning
the long fight. Just get on the cable
car at Jackson street, run up to Jim
Hills residence and walk two blocks
to 2l8 Nelson avenue. It will cost
you dime and be worth a dollar,
and G. H. will be glad to see you.
Try it.
So Let it Be.
A petition signed by our business
men was circulated here last week, to
