Renville Star-Farmer: Hughes
antics remind us of the saying that
verify the ass knoweth his masters
crib. Sycophantic adulation and full
some fattery will never pass for hon
est admiration and sincere regard,
and by descending to the methods at
present in vogue in the columns of the
Reveille the editor postmaster cannot
hope to aid McCleary's cause.
Marshall Messenger: There is
prospect of a new legal firm in Mar
shall soon, to be Matthews & Patterson.
Mr.. E. G. Patterson of Redwood Falls
is now here and will probably enter
into partnership with Mr.. NJ. E.
Matthews in his extensive practice and
Office business. Mr.. Patterson is very
favorably impressed with Marshall,
and will move his family here shortly.
An attempt was made last week to
organize for the pupose of having a
big celebration in this city on July 4th.
An organization was perfected and a
committee on subscriptions was
named. Owing to the inability of the
latter to bring certain business houses
together on the amount of the sub
scriptions, the proposition fell through,
aad the committee and organization
perfected last week, has given up the
attempt to have a celebration. 1t is
possible that other arrangements will
be made.
For the past two or three weeks
meetings have been held to bring the
Redwood Falls base ball club under
the head of business organization,
owning or leasing a base ball park in
the city, enclosing the same, and erect
ing grand stand. The grounds chosen
we're those just east of the North
western depot, but the owner, H. w.
Lamberton of Winona, has rejected
the appraised value of the property
in question, and last Friday evening a
committee was appointed to secure a
lease of the grounds just east of East
street, owned by Joseph Fischer. The
grounds will make an ideal base
ball park, on account of the slight
elevation at the west for the grand
stand. The committee expects to close
a deal with Mr.. Fischer, whereby the
association will have grounds for a
period of five years.
D. L. Bigham returned home last
Thursday from a ten days surveying
