Captain Jonas Lien seems to be a
favorite child Of fortune. Two years
ago when the state first went wrong
and elected Lee governor Jonas had
just attained his majority and having
taken part in the campaign in Mime
haha county became a candidate for
chief clerk Of the house. He came to
Huron on his way to Pierre and In
conversation with friends here was
told about what the job was worth.
Jonas at first would not believe it,
and when he became convinced that
it was big thing he got an extra
hustle on himself and succeeded in
landing the plum. A year later war
was declared with Spain and little
Jonas was appointed adjutant OF the
regiment and went with the boys to
Manila; and now he has just been
honored by captaincy. Jonas is a
manly little fellow--full of dignity
and common sense. He will make a
good captain but his side arms will
have to be made to order or they will
drag on the ground.
