in Indiana.
| Pete Larson, of Villas, was in town
last Friday and treated himself to
one of Bells elegant surreys and then
sent over to John Gray's and bought
a spankin' fine set of harness. All
this right here in the midst of hard
times when capital and soulless cor
porations are pressing the life out of
down trodden farmers and the gold
standard of republicanism is in full
sway. II we read Alright the sign OF
the times, Pete and all his good Swede
neighbors will vote this fall to con-
tinue the same kind Of oppression
nationally, that we have been having
for the last year.
