streets Saturday afternoon.
Messrs. Gosch and Clancy of Morton
were Sunday visitors in town.
Mark Childs, who has been painting
in Franklin, Sundayed in town.
H. Nuremberg and wife of Olivia Wis
tied relatives in town last Sunday.
John Moon and wife of the Falls
spent Sunday with F. F. Hammer and
family.
Mr.. Morgan and family of Garden
City are occupying the Fleischer resi-
dence near the quarry.
Henry Shoemaker and Miss Chip
man were in attendance at the races
and ball game at Bird Island last week
Friday.
The Pacific Elevator Co. bosses
passed through here Tuesday and
stopped off long enough to inspect their
property here.
Con. Cronin has been retained as
wheat buyer for the new firm that
takes charge of the Waters estate
some time in August.
Florence Richardson had a narrow
escape from falling over the dam at the
mill last Sunday afternoon and only
the timely assistance of one of the older
ladies, prevented her from falling
and receiving what might have been
serious injuries.
There was a slight mistake in last
weeks issue, when we said that Chas.
Fleischer attended the silver conven-
ton. He simply took advantage of the
low rates to visit his wife in Minneap-
oils. Mr.. Fleischer has always been one
of the leading Republicans of the coun-
ty and sees no reason why he should
change now.
The annual school meeting was held
in the schoolhouse on the evening of
the 18th. Howard Homer was elected
treasurer for term of three years, vice
A. A. Lindeman resigned. 1t was vot-
ed at the meeting that this district have
the free school book system, so hereaf-
ter the district furnishes all books, and
the new arrangement is undoubtedly
good one. The election ofofficers passed
off very quietly and very good ma
tured crowd was present. There was a
large number of women present and all
seemed very much interested in the
proceedings.
The Republican preliminary caucus
was held in the lumber office last Sat-
urday evening, and Herman Shoemak-
er and Nels Anderson were elected as
delegates. The election was holly con-
tested and the vote was very close-H.
Lindeman 10, H. Shoemaker II, while
Chas. Fleischer and Nels Anderson
were tie, the latter winning out on
the draw. Considerable dissatisfaction
has arisen among the Republicans on
account of about the same parties going
to conventions all the time, and hence
the contest. 1t will be far better for
the party when these combinations and
gangs are broken and when harmony
prevails and these one man elections
should be thing of the past.
A very neat wedding occurred at the
residence of VIM. Davis in Renville
county, last Sunday afternoon at 2:3O
o'clock, when Clinton Childs and Miss
Grace Gordon were united in matri-
mony. Charles Cliff acted as best man
while Miss Russell attended the bride.
The groom is the youngest son of M. A.
Childs of this place and rustling
young painter. The young couple left
on Mondays train for Hanley Falls,
where they will visit few days with
relatives. A number of their friends
bid them good-by at the train with the
usual amount of rice, old shoes, etc.
They will reside at the residence of the
groom's father on their return, and we
all join in wishing the young couple all
happiness and long and merry life.
1t is rather amusing to us all to hear
the Enterprise correspondent make his
kick and it is still more amusing to see
the way that he is trying to "crawl
out" of it and smooth things over, as
regards his little argument to wheat
prices and their causes. He tries to tell
to intelligent people now, what he
meant to say, but the people of this
burg are not as slow as he may think,
and when he thinks that he can make
them believe any old thing with his
eloquence he is badly mistaken, for we
are sure that there are people of long
residence in this town that are just as
