READY FOR BUSINESS.
The Penitentiary Can Now Make GOOD
Brick,

Superintendent H. 0. Bursum, of the
territorial penitentiary has all the ma
chinery in shape to commence the max
ing of brick from "a very fine clay
shale f)uld near the lime stone quarry
two and a half miles northeast of the
city. The hauling of the clay will be
commenced at once with the fine new
teams recently purchased for the peni-
Tertiary. A crusher is in place at the
quarry which will crush sufficient shale
to manufacture 10000 bricks a. day.
Heretofore the bricks manufactured at
the penitentiary were of a poor quality
and there was great difficulty in selling
them even at very low prices. But now
with skilled supervision, e machinery
and excellent raw material 1t is believed
that a superior brick will be manufac-
tured that will find a ready market any
where,

TWO. BAD CROSSINGS.

The attention of the city officials is
called to the condition of two street
crossings leading to the court house.
One is that across Fourth street at the
southwest corner of the court house
square. In muddy weather it is almost
impossible, as there is no cross-walk
there, or if there once was it is now
buried in the mud out of sight. The
county officials say that they called the
attention of the previous street COM
missioner to this crossing a number of
times, but the defect was never rene.
died.
The other crossing OF which COM
plant is made is that across Third street
on the south side of Walnut. Both the
stone walk and the wooden approaches
have sunk so low in the mud that they
are of no account, They should be
raised several inches.
These two crossings are on the main
approaches to the court house and are
traveresed by scores of people from out
of town every day. They are the most
used walks on side streets in the city
and ought to be kept in first-class re-

THEDSCENIC ROUTE.
The Trip to St. Paul by the Stickney
Roads Will Be- Delight.

The acquiring of the Cannon Valley
road by President Stickney, of the
Great Western, opens a new route to
st. Paul, Chicago and Kansas City for
Mankato. At Oelwein. Iowa, the
Great Western branches one line going
to Omaha and Kansas City, and the
other to Chicago by way of Dubuque.
The route to ST. Paul by the Stickney
system will be the scenic route, as it
will pass by a number of beautiful
lakes, then along the banks of the Can
non river, thence along the Mississippi
river to st. Paul. The road passes
through South st. Paul, where the
stock yards are located. This route is
said to shorter than the Minneapolis q
st. Louis route and only thirteen miles
longer than the Omaha.
1t, is expected that one of the first
things to be done will be to move the
depot into the center of the city, on
one bank or the other of the river.

INQUIRIES FOR BONDS.
Mankato Can Float Very Low Rate Re.
funding BoBds.

Mayor Currier has received numerous
inquiries from eastern bond companies
in regard to the SIS. 900 of bonds that
fall due Aug. LIST. These bonds bear
seven and one-half per cent interest,
and Mr.. Currier believes that they can
be refunded at three and a half or four
per cent and still bring small premium
There is strong demand for good
municipal bonds that run twenty years
or more, Minneapolis sold large block
of bonds this spring. bearing three and
a half per cent and got good premium.
Crookston has sold some bonds bearing
four per cent interest and received a
handsome premium.
If the city had been conducted during
the past few years with that economy
with which it should it would have been
able to have paid these bonds when they
fall due. The city ought to be trying
to reduce it's debt instead of forever
prolonging it.

SPEECH AT GETTYSBURG.

The approaching Memorial day will
probably be observed more generally
than for many years. owing to the war
that has interviewed since the last obser
vance of this day. Abraham Lincoln's
speech delivered at Gettysburg Nov.
10th, 1868, will probably be recited in a
number of the schools in the city AID
county, and in order that all who desire
to possess it may have it, we herewith
reproduce it:
'Fourscore and seven years ago our
fathers brought forth upon this con-
tinent new nation, conceived in
liberty, and dedicated to the PROPOSE
ton that all men are created equal
Now we are engaged in great civil
war, testing whether that nation, or
any nation so conceived and so dedicat-
ed, can long endure We are met on a
great battle field of that war. We have
come to dedicate portion of that field
as final resting place for those who here
give their lives that that nation might
live. 1t is altogether fitting and pro-
per that we should do this. But in a
larger sense we cannot dedicate, we
cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow
this ground. The brave men, living
and dead. who struggled here, have
consecrated it far above our power to
add or detract. The world will little
note, nor long remember, what we say
here, but it can never forget what they
did here. 1t is for US, the living. rather
to be dedicated here to the unfinished
work which they who fought here have
thus far so nobly advanced 1t is
rather for us to be here dedicated to the
great task remaining before us, that
from these honored dead we take in
creased devotion to that cause for
which they gave the last full measure
of devotion; that we here highly re-
solve that these dead shall not have
died in vain; that this nation under
God, shall have a new birth of freedom,
and that government of the people, by
the people, and for the people, shall
not perish from the earth -
