THE GAZETTE is indebted to O. F.
Conway for late Los Angeles papers,
containing accounts of the mid-winter
Los Angeles fiesta.
Reports from St. Paul have it that E.
D. French, Frank Kenney and Repre-
sentative James Larson all have rooms

III. G. Hays in the Sleepy Eye Dis
patch last week: Representative Lar
son from this district is splendid man
and an able speaker. We heard many
compensatory remarks made of him
by members after the caucus and many
predictions that he would make name
for himself at this session. The Red
wood people made no mistake in send
ing genial James Larson to St. Paul as
a representative.
D. J. Laird sold his barn in the rear
of the old hardware store on Mill street
to Harris Peavey last week. Mr.. Laird
advertised the same for sale in THE
GAZETTE and received in the neighbor-
hood of go inquiries to the advertise
ment. Like everybody who has testi-
fled the merits of The GAZETTE's adj
vertising columns he knows that adj
vertising in the great family medium
pays.
The Pioneer Press of recent date,

day. He issued an order directing Cox
to pay to Smyth the sum of $626.O
with interest from 1888. Cox formerly
practiced law in st. Paul and at that
time collected judgment for Smyth.
He is at present in California.
Maj. S. w. Tredway was over from
Morton last Sunday. Major Tredway
stated to GAZETTE reporter that Rem
vile county citizens, irrespective of
politics, were getting badly stirred up
over the standardization of J. A.
Bergley, that county's representative
in the lower house of the legislature.
AS a result of this agitation large
number of letters have been going into
the house and to Senator Hanna in
sisting on Mr.. Bergley resigning. Mr..
Tredway contends that Renville coun-
ty has no representative and his opin-
ion seems to be backed up by good legal
authorities. Mr.. Bergley took out his
second papers on Oct. 25th last and
hence will not be citizen in the strict
sense of the word until Jan. 18th. In
the meantime Renville county intends
to send down large delegation to in
sist Oh Gov. Clough giving the county
a legal representative in the house.
Who the latter will be is not known.
Col. Frank Walters of Morton is among
the number named. The present rep
resentative has remained away from
the house for several. days past, accord
ing to statements made by the Morton
crowd
