One Of the objections brought
against the candidate for mayor
who was first in the field was that he
was too young. Circumstances
overthrew that objection. Another
was that he was born in Europe.
Whether to be born in Europe Is a
bad thing or not, does not need dis
cussion in this case. However, the
statement is not true. The candi-
date referred to- was born in Fort
Ripley, north Of Little Falls, when
that tort was still a military post OF
the United States, and when the stars
and stripes were floating over it.
Further than that, the father of this
same candidate who was first in the
field, wore the blue as soldier OF
the United States during the civil
var. Under the circumstances, the
said candidate rather thinks that he
is as good an American citizen as
anybody. .@: ~.

MAY OR NELSON RESIGNS.
Resolution Stopping Sunday Amuse-

Resolution Stopping Sunday Amuse-
mcmts Did Not Suit Him.
From all accounts there was a pretty
warm meeting of the Thunderbolt COM
missioners last night, resulting In the res
isnation of Mayor L. W. Nelson, who,
it is said, could not agree with the views
of the other commissioners with regard to
Sunday amusements.
When Mayor Nelson called the meeting
to order there were present besides him
self Commissioners Gray, Reitz, Lear and
Sheppard. 1t was known that some move
would be made to stop musical and other
entertainments in the town on Sunday,
and Mr.. Herman Winter had previously
seen one or two of the commissioners,
but had been unable to change their
views. As he runs the only musical gar
den OF any importance in the town, he
naturally wanted to see any such legisla-
ton defeated. He was present at the
meeting.
Commissioner Sheppard introduced the
expected resolution during the course of
the meeting providing that no more Sun
day entertainments, musical or otherwise,
should be allowed. The motion was put by
Chairman Nelson ana carried.
MIR. Winter then asked if he would be
allowed to make few remarks, and per-
mission was accorded him. He stated that
Sunday was the only day on which the
working people could get day to come to
Thunderbolt and that they naturally
sought such amusements as a relief from
their weekly toll. He regretted that the
commissioners saw fit to take such action
Speeches by several of the commission
ers then followed, Commissioner Gray ex-
planning the BRASS bands would be allowed
but piano music and singing were prohib-
tied under the resolution.
Mayor Nelson, Ii seems was not In ac-
cordance with these views at ALL He
held that If Thunderboit was to be a sum-
mer resort and other liberties were to be
allowed, the commissioners should not put
such restrictions on musical entertain-
ments so long as they were of a harm
less character. He thereupon rendered his
resignation, which the commissioners We're
at first not disposed to accept, but he in
sisted, and 1t was accepted.
Mr. Winter asserts that he will continue
the light musical features on Sunday JUST
as IL the resolution had not been passed
He does not thing the commissioners act
ed rightly in the matter he states, and
il he is interfered with. he says he viii
take the matter into the courts.
An effort was made last night to get
Mayor Nelson by telephone but he had re-
tired 1t is said that one Of the present
