IT would be extremely difficult
to collect more competent set of
men in the county of st. Louis
for the various positions than those
embraced in the Republican county
ticket. The larger part of the
candidates have been weighed and
found 16 ounces to the pound.
Those who have held the offices
are perfectly competent as can be
seen by the rousing denominations
received and the new men are
known by their straightforward
and upright business principles.
Voters will make no mistake by
casting their ballots for the Repub-
lican nominees from the head to
the foot of the ticket.

cases two,s suffices to satisfy the
electors Of Pop occupancy? These
are strange facts which should be
pondered over and well studied.
The Republican party does not
tolerate incompetency and when a
man is found lacking in the traits
that go to make a good officer he
is let out. A successful business
man makes a successful county
officer in whose hands the county
is safe. Unless there are charges
preferred against the re-nominat
ed candidates other than the above
of having the Office too long, the
chances for the Pop are as scarce
as hens teeth.

THERE seems to be disposition
on the part of Republicans to feel
an over confidence in their ticket
and the party. While there is no
doubt in anyone's mind but what
the party will win, it is neyerthe-
less poor policy to display lack of
energy in making the majority as
large as possible, Everybody
should take off their coats and go
to work. See that all citizens
are registered on Oct. % and Nov.
1, and take particular pains to
have everyone vote. Let us en-
dorse the administration by cast
ing the largest Republican vote
ever shown in the history of the
country. We can do it.

The Waseca journal is unkind
enough to produce the following
from a speech delivered by John
Lind at New Ulm in October,
1888: Tear down the walls of
every state prison in the land and
you would find that SO per cent
of the population which you would
release are Democrats. All Demo-
Gratis are not murderers and horse
thieves, but pretty nearly all the
murderers and horse thieves are
Democrats.

A st. Louis Democratic paper

says: ''The Democrats forced the

men to fight its battles. But they

Democrat papers have been tell
ing. According to the above, the

The Eustis- country-press racket

based on falsehoods and the writ

themselves to be liars of the first

but the sheriff, or the sheriff and his

the interest on the whole amount, as
the extra $29 will have to be raised to
pay the county, aad the negotiated
note will have to be paid in order to
satisfy Mr.. Whites Winona friend.
The fine had not been paid over to
the county by Sheriff Pease and his
friends on Monday last, but the
prisoner has been breathing the pure
air of freedom ever since the sheriff
allowed him to depart several weeks
ago. It is stated on the best of author
ity that Mayor Philbrick, who holds
the $40, refuses to turn the same over
to the sheriff as part payment of the
fine, because the sheriff allowed his
prisoner to go. Mr.. Philbrick proposes
to hold the $40 as part payment on
the first note signed, and as his share
on the second note.
The fact that Sheriff Pease neg
lected to discharge the duties of his
Office, as we'll as to befriend an enemy
of the w. G. T. q. of this city, in
which Mr.. Pease has heretofore held a
high standing, will undoubtedly cause

THE LIVING AND DEHD.
The Annual Display of the Love
For the Soldier in
This City.
An immense ConCourse of People
Came Early and Remained
All Day.

No more the soldiers toll in weary marches
No more the hosts engage in deadly fray:
And now, beneath the gloomy yews and
larches,
They wait the trumpet of the Judgment
Day.
Just as the last old soldiers of the
civil war march in silent tread towards
the cemeteries to plant the floral gar
lands over the graves of their departed
comrades, the echo of another
generation of soldiers of battles to
come, are heard from the Cuban
shores and from the Pacific ocean
and coast. And as fair hands en-
twined the wreaths and garlands for
the soldiers of the civil war the sold
ier and sailor of to-day were not for
gotten, for in the Redwood cemetery
last Monday morning superb floral
wreath was hung on the monument as
tribute to the heroes murdered on
the Maine.
1t was superb tribute to the mem
orv of the dead and to the coming deeds
of the living. The National colors were
everywhere. They foated in the breeze.
They were worn in neckscarfs by the
men and in patriotic devotion by the
women. Everywhere the spirit of pat
riotism was in the air, and as the
flowers were placed on the graves Of
the dead, it was with thought that
the American spirit would again
breathe liberty over other monarchial
ridden lands.
1t was ten o'clock before the largest
procession ever formed in Redwood
Falls commenced forming for march
to the cemetery. 1t was headed by the
little men composing the crack drum
corps of Redwood Falls. Then came
the old soldiers, under the command
of j. B. Robinson, with 81. G. Baker
as officer of the day, and Jay Ferris
as standard bearer. The old soldiers
we're sixty strong, and all of them
seemed to march lighter to day than
they did a year ago. Following them
came the A. o. U. W. lodge, nearly &C
strong. then the pupils of Redwood
Falls high school. then the ladies oi
the W. r. c., and-then citizens in car
riages. The procession was nearly q
mile long.
Arriving at the cemetery the drum
corps played the death march, to the
place of formation, and after the form
ing, the regular G.. A. r exercises
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1898-06-02

were conducted by Commander Rob-
inson, assisted by E. B. Hale as Chap
lain. The ladies of the w. R. G. first
placed a wreath on the column in
memory of the survivors of the Maine,
then came one for the men that fell at
Atlanta. then one for the Chattanooga
another for Corinth, another to the
unknown graves, and another to those
who died in rebel prisons. Then the
detail of old soldiers, Messrs. J. M.
Dunnington, II. c. Baker, Andrew
Stewart, E. D. French, F. E. Kenney,
L. n. Rowe, j. W. Ferris, and George
Buxton, placed flowers over the graves
of the dead soldiers, and committee
from the W. R. G. did the same over
the deceased wives of old soldiers.
Following this the procession was re-
formed, and the march back to city
commenced. Arriving here the process
sion dispersed until two o'clock, when
march from the G.. A. r. hall TO the
court house was participated in by the
old soldiers and their wives.
At two o'clock the Redwood Falls
Drum Corps escorted the pupils of the
public schools from the school house
to the post hall and from there the
two escored the members of the Post
and w. r. G. down Second street to
Washington Avenue as far as Third.
and then to the court house, where
the children formed in line on either
side of the sidewalk, with the G. A. R.
Post and W. R. G. between the lines.
The school children then sang March
ing through Georgia" and America" +"
and gave the flag salute. The flag sa-
lutte was greeted with applause by the
old soldiers. The crowd soon filled the
court room and the exercises were
opened with music by the Redwood
Falls Drum Corps. A choir composed
of Messrs. johnson, Martin and South
wick and Mesdames Mcmillan, C. E.
Dickinson, and johnson and Miss
Belle Clayson, with Miss Grace Clark
presiding at the organ, sang, after
which Rev. 6. II. Way offered prayer.
Adjutant 81. n. Bell read the orders
and then Miss Ida NJ. Colson gave q
reading. Another song by the choir
was followed by reading by Mrs. D..
A. Stuart.
Robert Stratton of Minneapolis, who
spoke here in 1885 or 1886 at similar
obsequies, delivered the address of the
day. Mr.. Stratton commenced his ad-
dress by review of heroes of other
nations and nations themselves, going
as far back as the career of the one
eyed Carthagenian, Hannibal, and
leading up to the present time. He
compared the deeds of those warriors
of old. who fought for glory and plum
der, with the deeds of our citizen
soldier, who fought that the nation
