A shy advance agent of what is to
come visited us last Saturday night.
William Newgord and Jalmar Void
returned last week from Stevens Co.,
where they have worked this fall.
There is much talk and some kicking
about the New London Milling Co: in
this neck OF the country because they
keep the water and thereby spoil our
New London road. The grades are
now flooded and consequently impass-
able with loads.
The sad news reached US the early
part of last week that Martin Halvor-
son, who has been working for Bel
grade Milling Co. in North Dakota,
had been gathered in by the grim
reaper, Death. Mr.. Halvorson was
brought up in this vicinity, and the
news of his death was received with
much regret. He leaves q suffering
widow and many children, an aged
father, brother, and many other rel
atives and friends to mourn his death.
The bereaved family and Borrowing
relatives have the sympathy of our
community.
Last Saturday evening We had an.
other basket supper and surprise par
ty. This time the honors were conferred
upon our parochial teacher, Miss Jor-
dahl, OF Norway Lake. Although
only seven of our young ladies and
one boy brought baskets they brought
in the snug sum of $3.50. Together
with what was collected for lunch the
sum amounted to $2O.6O. One half OF
this was given to Miss Jordahl as a
present and for the other half she will
teach school.
Although we, as we'll as many OF
our young people, have at times done
things which we now regret, we have
often felt proud of our.industrious and
sturdy young men; but never have we
felt that they were so worthy of our
praise as after the basket party last
Saturday evening. When they saw
that all the girls from our neighbour
ing localities, and some of our own,
did not come with their baskets as
promised they seemed to be determi ned
to keep up our good reputation, and
they not only bid literally, but they
also backed every statement with the
cash. / feel that must give thanks to
Mr.. George Johnson for letting us
have the free use OF his house; to the
young ladies that brought baskets; tc
the young men that paid so literally
for the baskets; and to those who
paid so literally for their lunch.
Peter Larson, that "jolly boy,' is
now with US again.
Mr.. Nordquist, of Minneapolis, is
visiting with Amund Larson and fam.
lily
Anton Iverson leaves for Wiscon-
sin this week.
Amund Larson auctioneered at our
basket party. he proved to be the
same lucky chap.
Belgrade has new photogra pher.
We wonder which Belgrade has had
the most of, photographers or printers.
Anthony Anderson, of New London,
has applied for our school; in all
probability he will get it.
We are glad to see that literary
societies are being organized Or reor-
gained in so many parts of our coun-
ty. Such societies have been the first
steps to success for most of our great
men. May the good work prosper.

Law AND ORDER COLUMN.
Edited by the chairman of the Enforce
ment Committee OF the A. S. League.

Edited by the chairman of the Enforce p
: ment Committee OF the A. S. League. y
over six months ago the majority of the
citizens of Willmar decreed that no saloons
should be allowed within the village.
DOES THE MAJORITY RULE IN WILLMAR?
NO!-it is said-Not when the majority is
against the saloon gang
What will the citizens do about ity Well.
We shall see.
No respectable man would run blind pig
nor allow one in his building Either is a
case OF lawIessness
*x*
lfyou would avoid trouble do not trans
classed as friend of the law-breakers do
not associate with nor defend such gentry.
~
Among the powers Of the village council
given it by tho laws of the state is the abate-
ment and removal of nuisances. Within
the legal definition of nuisances which may
be so disposed of are included gambling
houses houses of ill-fame. disorderly tav-
ems, and houses or places where spurious,
vinOus or fermented liquors are sold with
out license" Now it is clear that prosecu-
ting few irresponsible bartenders, even II
successful, will not abate the nuisance of
the four saloons that are running in Will
mar against all law and decency. More he
roic treatment is needed. The power pos
| sessed by the council gives 1t a special inter-
est not possessed by private citizen. 1t
can therefore invoke measures which will
| compel these joints to cease their illegal
practices.
~
When you defend blindpiggery you de fend
lawlessness and outlawry.
~
AS u general rule. you will find that it is
| the customers OF the blind pigs who are SC
certain that these critters will again be Civ
| en- official protection next spring.
~
Every pigger and pigger's friend was
heartily in favor of convicting Nels Carlson
last Saturday for filling the prescription OF
a veterinary surgeon. STANCE. was it not?
~
And just now a person must be "trusty'
| in order to buy strong drink in Willmar. In
| other words. the seller must have confidence
that the buyer will not give him away, ever
| II put under oath. The lines have tight.
| ened somewhat since the prodding began.

"ArlERICAN PROSPERITY"

The Statist, an influential Lon
don, England paper, takes occasion
to speak of American prosperity
in the following manner: There
will be very large exports of wheat
to meet the demands of Western
Europe. American farmers are
disposing of their crops rapidly
and Mt tolerably good prices, they
will be able to purchas from the
East and from Europe as full as
they have been doing this year.
The United States has made great
progress Of late years in manufac-
turing and trading, but it is still
essentially an agricultural country,
and its prosperity depends mainly
on the harvest Therefore, fair
wheat and good harvests of other
productions mean the continuance
of the well being of the farmers,
who are the backbone and life
blood of the country" "Un-
der the circumstances, it is reason
ably certain that railroad traffic
returns and foreign orders for To-
comotives, steel, etc, will continue

DOES 1T MEAN DIssoLUIoNa
The Dreyfus Case May Wipe
France Off the Face of
the Earth.

Chicago, August 26.-Reni Du-
buffet, wealthy silk merchant of
Paris, who sailed for America on
the 18th inst, says:
Nearly as much uncertainty
prevails in France as TO the out
come of the Dreyfus case as there
is in America. In my opinion the
action of the court. no matter what
it may be, will precipitate the most
dangerous crisis France has had
to face for many years.
I'm the event of an acquittal |
do not believe that the anti-Drey-
fus element will act with precipi-
tation because to do so would be
for the majority to rebel an un-
heard of thing. And they would
be largely influenced toward peace
by commercial reasons and the fear
of making the exposition failure.
But, if Dreyfus is convicted, | be-
lieve that another revolution would
be probable. The Jewish bankers
would first exert all their influence
to secure another hearing for the
prisoners. and this failing, the
worst might be expected.
THE Jewish bankers would pro-
badly refuse to come to the aid of
the government and suspension of
payment by the government banks
followed by panic would not be
improbable. In short it is the
general opinion among conserva-
tive Frenchmen that France will
be lucky if the question is settled
in five years, whether Dreyfus is
found guilty or innocent, and many
believe that peace will not be re-
stored till the Jews are driven out
of France. as were the Protestants. "

AID THE FREE TRAIN FUND

AT the Presbyterian church on
next Monday night, Capt. Richard
Keene will deliver an illustrated
lecture on the Cuban and Philip
pine wars. The stereopticon views
are vivid and faithfully portray
the scenes which have stirred the
hearts of Americans and brought
proud Spain to her knees. Capt.
Keene, the lecturer. may be easily
picked out in number of these
views. The lecture has been given
in many places and has received
the highest endorsement from G..
A. r. Posts. The entertainment
is given here with a two-fold OBJ
ject-that of giving some assist
ance to the Free Train Fund for
bringing the Colorado volunteers
home from San Francisco, and to
reimb the lecturer. The pro-
ceeds are to be divided so that
the lecturer shall receive one-third
of the proceeds. Tickets are on sale
at bookstore newsstand; admission
% and 80 cents; reserved seats so
cents.
The Blue Rapids Times, Marys-
vile News and other papers praise
his lecture highly. The Times
says:
Capt. Keene's lecture, "Our War
with Spain" at the opera house
Friday evening was very interest
ing and instructive account of the
Cuban war, punctuated with stere-
optican views from Kodak snap
shots of the actual contest. One
of the pleasant features of the
captains lecture is that he wastes
The Florence daily tribune., 1899-08-26

no words and no time, and still
there is no hurry or rush. The
views of the Philippine contests
and of Porto Rica are shown and
briefly described, while the Cuban
campaign in which he was an eye
witness, graphically told in plain
and pleasing manner, with many
pathetic and amusing incidents.

Will Not Change.

"Those reports coming from
Canon City to the effect that the
Rio Grande would build short
line from Colorado Springs to Can
on City and send all through travel
that way, must have originated in
the fertile brain of some dreamer
who imagined that it would be
good thing for Canon City if that
were to be done" said President
Jeffery. of the Rio Grande yester-
day. Such move has never
been considered by either the Off
cials OF directors of the road. In
fact, | do not know the character
of the country between Colorado
Springs and Canon City. For the
past year we have been improving
our roadbed. and all that section
of the road from Colorado Springs
via. Pueblo, to west of Buena Wis
ia, has been laid with S5-pound
steel rails, and the entire line to
Grand junction will be equipped
with the new rails before the year
ends.
'.The road is also reballasted, as
the new rails are laid and it is not
likely we would have made all
these improvement on the Pueb-
10 division if we had contemplated
building cutoff to Canon City,
and abandoning the Pueblo route,
excepting for local traffic"

The Canteen to Stay.

The Attorney General decided Mon
day that section seventeen of the act
passed by the last session of congress
increasing the efficiency of the army
did not prohibit the continuance OF
the sale of lntoXicants through the
canteen system as heretofore carried
on. The only thing it prevents is the
detailing of officers or enlisted men to
do the selling. The abolition of the
canteen was strongly advocated by
Congressman Grout. 1t is maintained
by some who have given the matter a
good deal of attention that an army
is better off without the opportunity
of obtaining even moderate supply
of intoXicants, that total abstinence
makes the men more hardy and capa-
able of more endurance. The boys
who spent the summer at Chickamauga
were inclined to consider the canteen
an institution to be thankful for. 1t
enabled them to drink less of the wa
ter that was bad for the health. There
NAV be times when its use is necessary
but its patronage should be always
carefully limited.
