CITY TREASURER'S REPORT.

City Treasurer Williams has his
monthly report ready for the council
this evening, which is as follows:

UNFAIR METHODS.
This is What Mankato Cement Has
to Contend With.

Our attention has been called to an
yesterdays Minneapolis Tribune. in
which it is stated that the asphalt
companies having contracts in that
city are delaying the work of paving
the streets. The article goes on to
say that sit was learned yesterday
that the delay was caused by the in
ability of the concerns to secure the
proper cement, which is an important
ingredient in the concrete. Accord
ing to Assistant City Engineer Howe,
there are just two kinds of cement
which will stand the wear in the
pavement-that known as the Man
kato variety and the other from Mil
waukee. The companies claim that
the Mankato cement on which they
were depending, has played out and
that nothing but an inferior variety
can now be secured from those quar-
ries. For some other reason no
cement can be obtained immedia tely
from Milwaukee.
To show how far from the truth
this statement is, it is only necessary
to say that no Mankato cement in be-
ing furnished to any asphalt paving
company, Manager Carney is ship
ping 300 barrels of cement daily to
the city of Minneapolis for use on tn e
public works there. and could send
twice as much if he was able to pro-
duce it. The cement now being turn
ed out is superior to anything manu-
featured here in previous years. Last
week, in the seven day test at Mime
apolis, the cement showed strength
of 145 pounds, while only ITO pounds
is required. The supply of excellent
rock is inexhaustible.
Mankato cement is not only in
great demand in Minneapolis, but
400 barrels day distributed among
the cities of Lincoln, Neb., Omaha,
Council Bluffs, Sioux City, Duluth,
West Superior and St. Paul.
The trouble seems to be that some
of the stockholders of one or more of
the asphalt companies have an in
terest in the Milwaukee cement com
pany, and are displeased with the pre-
ference so generally shown for the
Mankato. Minneapolis is not 1.-The
only point where the Milwaukee
cement comes in competition with
the local cement. Doubtless the
present wealthy eastern owners of the
Mankato plant will take proper notice
of the Tribune article.

Mr.. A. Blue and wife, of Eagle
Lake, Ia, are here at present on a
visit to Mrs. Blues parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Loop.
The Rev. Quigley, the esteemed

occupy his pulpit on Sunday as usual.
William Keehn, an old settler of
Minnesota, and for some time resi-
dent of Lake Crystal, passed away on
Thursday night at about II o'clock,
after lingering illness. We extend
our sympathy to his wife and family.
On Thursday evening A. J. Stack

A MISSING BOY.
Big Chase After Horse Traders Who
Inveigled Him Away.

The people of New Ulm have first
class sensation this week, in the mys-
FERROUS disappearance of boy named
Willie Schmidt. 1t appears that a
gang of horse traders have been ply
ing their trade opposite New Ulm,
and on Tuesday morning one of them
was seen to drive to the Northwestern
depot with covered buggy. The boy
was seen to enter the buggy, which
was then driven toward the camp in
Nicollet county.
That was the last seen of the boy.
The unanimous opinion of New Ulm
people is that he was inveigled to the
horse traders camp and then taken
away with the party, contrary to his
will. Towards night the town was
aroused, and on Wednesday morning
the police officers and sheriff set out
in all directions to overtake the party.
Chief Of Police Heinen started towards
St. Peter and arrived there about
noon. He said that he had traced the
outfit to the vicinity of CORTLAND and
there lost track of it. He had con-
tinued on to Nicollet, where he heard
that movers wagon was headed to
St. Peter. He took after these and
overlook them, but found it to be a
false alarm. At CORTLAND the party
were said to have inquired the way to
Madelia aud St. James, and it is
thought they were headed in that
direction. Mr.. Heinen departed for
Lake Crystal, Madelia and st. Sames.
The boy is II years of age and a son
of Gotleib Schmidt, formerly post
master of New Ulm, but now en-
ployed about the Northwestern depot.
He is said to be modest, unassuming
boy, who was anxious to secure en-
ployment, the position he had being
unsatisfactory because too severe. 1t
is thought by his father that he was
decoyed to the camp of the horse
traders and then spirited away. OF
course his New Ulm friends and rela-
tives are aroused over the affair.

GONE VISITING.
L. d. SayIor Takes a Western Trip
Hired Girl Goes, Also.


1t has been rumored on the street
for some time that L. d. Saylor's do
nestle relations are not as happy as
they might be, and for two or three
weeks past he has been missing from
his usual haunts. 1t is reported that
he has taken trip to Montana or
some other western state. In order
to raise the necessary funds, he is said
to have mortgaged about everything
that he could, leaving his wife and
eight children to live on the atmos-
phere and their own labor and watch
the notes mature.
The young woman who did the do
nestle service for the family is also
said to have disappeared at about the
time Mr.. Saylor hied himself away.
Mr.. Saylor purchased the Shaubut
farm of D. L. Rose three OF four years
ago on a contract and has run a
dairy and hog ranch there since. Mr..
Rose has once more come in possession
of the farm and offers it for sale in an
other column.
Mr. Saylor is said to have written
a member of his family that he ex-
pected to return before snow flies.
The letter was dated from Gre at
Falls, Mont.

HEADED TOWARD MANKATO.

The matter of telephone extension
to Mankato assumed definite shape
this week, says the Amboy Herald
Henry Cross visited Vernon Center
last week and placed the matter be-
fore the citizens of that place and in
a short time received stock enough to
warrant the Herald in saying that
the line will run to that place. The
same cheering news comes from Gar
den City. Mr.. Cross visited that
place Monday and sesured $500
block of stock, which incures the COM
pletion of the line into Mankato this
season. We understand that it is the
intention of the company to run the
line fromG ardenCity on the south side
of MillsLake and if the people ofLake
Crystal want connection with the
line, it will be made from some point
near that place, and thence on to
Mankato via. Rapidan.

ness men? For instance there are
about forty men and women of the
Arabians, who peddle all kinds of no.
tions, underwear, jewelry, etc., and
plenty of agents coming here in the
fall of the year which is every busi-
ness mans harvest, and they peddle
and sell on commission, all kinds of
ware, and we must compete with
them while they have no taxes and
no insurance to pay, neither must
they uphold the city as the business
men do: for instance if there is a
dance, ice cream sOciable or church
festival, who do these people come
to asking for help? Nobody but the
business men, and these very people
that get help from the business men
turn their backs when they don't
need them and patronize outsiders
and where is the protection? So if
the council is going to act on such a
matter let it consider the whole and
not protect one line and not the other.

ANTI-TRAnP PLAN.
Renville County Residents Hold a
Mass neeting.

At the Renville anti-tramp mass
convention held at Beaver Falls this
week, theIfollowing recommendations
were made:
First-That all the villages in Rem
vile county be recommended to make
provision for furnishing employment
to any and all tramps or Migrants, and
some method be employed to furnish
village officers intelligence OF such
tramps, and that all parties be in
structed to refuse food except on such
conditions as may be provided.
Second-That meal tickets be pro-
vided to all families in the villages,
and that upon the application of any
tramp or vagrant, the person so ap-
piled to shall sign and present such
tickets to the applicant, and that up
on it's presentation to the proper vii
lage authority the applicant shall be
set to work for two hours, and then
provided with the means to secure one
meal at the expense of the village.
Third-The town board of each
township in Renville county is re-
quested to take action for protection
against the tramp nuisance, as these
men are getting dangerous to the
safety of life and property, and to
work in conjunction with the village
authorities of the several villages.
1t is also suggested that the au-
thorities keep such record of tramps
presenting meal tickets that they
shall be known, and after too fire.
quent visitations shall be dealt with
as Migrants under the law and jailed
at hard labor for considerable
period. To this could be added per-
sonal record that would be of value in
penology.

A REWARD OUTSTANDING.
A Motive Offered for Doing Some
Detective Work.

Mayor Weaver said today that at
the time of the fires last fall he and
the aldermen talked the matter over
and agreed informally to pay reward
for the conviction of the file bug.
The sum was to be reasonable one,
perhaps 5000 or more. While no for
NAL action was taken, the informal
offer has never been rescinded and
stands open today.
If anybody knows who the fire
bug is, now is the time for him to
come forward and earn the reward by
giving the necessary evidence. If
anyone has suspicious, let him i'm
part them to Chief Yates or Sheriff
Bowen, that steps may be taken to
shadow the parties under suspicion,
if the facts seem to warrant it.
1t was suggested today by a busi-
ness man that the city ought to con-
denim the old vacant frame shanties
about the business portion on the
ground of being dangerous to sur
rounding property. The city would
look much better if this were done.
There are some buildings that can
never be rented and are tottering on
their foundations. In dry time, a
match carelessly thrown down by one
of these might lead to a serious cou-
fiagration.

NEW STONE WALKS.

A large number of new sawed stone
walks are to go down on Front street
before operations on that street
cease. T. E. Coughlin is now laying
walk in front of five lots belonging
to Jno. f. Meagher and one belonging
to Mr.. Kratch. This will be solid
stretch of walk from Mrs. Fresch-
oltZ's to T. w. Harris shoe store.
Several other owners of Front street
property are figuring on putting down
sawed stone walks. w. B. Craig has
just completed laying one along the
Front street side of the Model Cloth
ing and Shoe Store, and we under
stand that it is to be laid along the
Hickory street side of the property,
also.

ANOTHER CANDIDATE.

Francis o. Beardsley, of Madison
Lake, announces that he will be a
candidate for the Office of register of
deeds, subject to the action Of the
Republican county convention. He
has held the offices of clerk of
the township and village recor-
der and is a competent man for the
office he seeks, while the fact of be-
ing deprived of one arm will gain
him much sympathy. he has never
asked for county Office before, and
if nominated would make a strong
fight.

the aggressive from the start. At
the nominating convention, he prom
ised that the white plume Of Ma
varre" would be found tossing in the
thickest of the fight, and that was
no idle boast or figure of speech.
