The herald-advance. (Milbank, S.D.) 1890-1922, 1897-01-15

the city last week, while on his
way west
Ed. GlOmstad, who is now 10.
Gated at Waseca, but who spends
some time in the winter ae
travelling salesman, made his
regular visit to Milbanl, the first
of the week.
We now have on hand the larg-
est and best line Of Heinz S sweet
and sour Pickles, Crout, Chow
chow, Prepared Mince Meat and
Dally's Horse-radish, ever be
fore had in the city, also Mus
tard in bulk at Schad & Cos.
Mr.. J. M. Olson, Of Castle
wood, has been in town during
the week investigating the pros
poets for establishing q machine
shop in this city. While Mr.. o.
son has not fully decided, having
to consult with his partner, he is
very fayorably impressed with
Milbanl as a suitable place for
his enterprise.
The January teachers meeting
was held at the high school build
ing last Saturday afternoon.
Miss Ella Merry gave a model
class recitation in multiplication
of fractions which was highly APP
preciated, and Miss Crowl
brought IN a class from the first
primary department and Illus
trated her work in teaching the
beginning Of numbers. Both
these classes were very interest
ing and the methods exemplitied
We're very helpful, The work in
English History was taken up by
individuals, and in connection,
selections from Shakespear 5
historical plays were read.
The special term Of court for
the trial of the Clark forgery
cases, which was to have been
held last week did not material
ize, owing to the non arrival Of
Judge Campbell, who was delay
ed in the first place by the rail
way blockade, and afterwards
for soE2e reason sent word to the
court officers TO adjourn the
court to the 18th inst. The III
meroas delays andpostponments
that have been Il feature Of this
ease is causing widespread com
ment. The prosecution Of the
case has already cost the county
several thousands Of dollars, and
| there is q universal demand that
speedy justice be had and the
matter disposed Of at an early
day. 1t is such delays and un-
certainties Of judicial proceed
ings as have characterized this
case that prodace the widespread
| distrust Of the courts that have
taken possession Of the minds of
the people, and q vigorous and
healthy enforcement of the law
is the only thing that will remove
this distrust.
Justice Pasco was rudely
awakened Wednesday morning
shortly after midnight by the
announcement that business Of
| Importance demanded his at
tention, and hastily dressing
himself he Was taken to the ho-
tel St. Hubert, where he found
II waiting Henry Grabcrt and
Lena Stenmark, both Of whom
hailed from the vicinity Of Sum
nit, and the couple having pro
duced a paper from the clerk Of
courts, III which the latter tesii-
fled that he knew OF no good
reason why Henry and Lena
should not be wed, the Justice
after deep meditation also con
ciuded that there were none, but
that the reasons were all plain
" favorable to the nuptials, and
without further ado he admins
tered that binding obligation Of
constancy according to the com
piled code, which nothing but
death or a divorce can release
from. The event is considered
q very happy termination Of q
criminal suit that was pending
in the Roberts county court, and
It IS generally. conceded there
should be rejoicing all round.
