II It is possible the committee having
in charge the raising of fund with
which to assist in defraying the eX-
penses of the return of the Thirteenth
Minnesota volunteers from San Fran
cisco, will not delay the matter more
than a very few days, and it will not
be surprising IL Stiliwater's entire share
of the fund will be forthcoming by next
Tuesday evening. Hon. John McKu-
sick, wealthy resident of Saltwater,
remarked yesterday that he believed the
committee should solicit funds, and that
he would give 800 toward the required
amount He did not object to the sale
of badges, but believed that the amount
could be raised more rapidly providing
the committee could set q date at which
time the money should be raised. He
was of the opinion that it could be done
in one day, and he so stated his belief
at a meeting of the committee held in
the forenoon. The suggestion was adopt
ed, and next Thursday was designated
as the day when the amount shall be
raised 1t is expected Saltwater people
will contribute about $500. The sale of
badges, however, will continue without
interruption, and the committee also de-
cided yesterday to adopt a Juvenile badge.
to be sold to children for % cents. 1t is
believed that il the little forks can be
interested in the matter they will sue
coed in adding considerable to the fund.
