Sylvester Lumber Co.

The Herman Enterprise of last
week stated that the Jenkins Lum-
Der Co. were about to dispose Of
their yards at Morris, Herman and
Donnelly to the Sylvester Lumber
Co., of which S. A. Sylvester, brother
of j. o. Sylvester of Herman, is a
prominent member. The Enterprise
also states that Mr.. Sylvester will re-
move from his home in Iowa to Nor

Upon investigation, we find that
Mr. Jenkins is one of the incorpora-
tors of the Sylvester Lumber Co.and
that the Importance which the Enter
prise attaches to the transfer is un-
called for. No change is anticipated
in either the local or general manage
ment of the business,

His Moments of Jox.

Did you ever hear of the strange
man who went out to summer hotel
once for holiday? He impressed on
the clerk the first day he was there
that it was of vital Importance that he
| be called at 6 o'clock next morning.
He was called. He didn't come down
| stairs till 2 in the afternoon. The in
| junction to the clerk was repeated ev-
cry day, and every day the mysterious
guest staid in his room till late in the
afternoon. When he had been at the
place week and was about to leave,
the clerk said to him:
II beg your pardon, sir; it's none Of
my business, but why have you left or
ders to be called at o'clock every
! morning and never got out Of bed till
several hours laterY'
"Well," he replied, "T'll tell you.
Back in the city I've got a job that
compels me to get up every morning,
summer and winter, at 6 o'clock. This
is my first vacation for five years. Ev-
cry day when your bellboy has come
up stairs and banged at the door I've
started up to dress and get down to the
Office and then suddenly let the convic-
ton steal blissfully over my brain that
l didn't have to. Then I've gone back
to bed, hugged the pillow and dreamed
that I was in the Elysian fields. That

banging on my door every morning has

One day during cold snap last win

him steal potato from a barrelful Of
the tubers that stood outside the coun-
ter. The old fellow slipped out of the
house as soon as he could convenient
ly and limped away. followed him,
thinking to give him what change
could spare, for l thought he must be
desperately poor if he must steal po-
tato.
When I caught up with him and Of
fered him little money, the old man
roared with laughter. When he had
got his breath again, he said:
"You saw me steal the potato, didn't
your
eyes, sir, did,"

SPEECH OF NEXT GOVERNOR.
Though Necessarily Short, 1t Was
Right to the Point.

The short speech given by Capt
Van SAINT, Republican candidate fl
governor, at this place last Saturday
was necessarily short, but in never.
theless contained enough good argu-
ment to show the reliance which
should be placed on the Republican
party and the utter absurdity of the
position of the Democrats in this
campaign.
The genial captain started out with
a discussion of what is the paramount
issue. The Democrats have claimed
first that silver was the paramount
issue, then imperialism" then trusts.
The latest one not out yet. The real
issue is, however, whether we are to
continue to enjoy the good times
which are prevailing at present, or
turn the country over to the Demo
Gratis and bring on serious disturb
ance of business conditions. The
captain then proved by comparing
savings bank deposits and prices laid
for labor the difference between Re
publican and Democratic times.
The "bogy" of imperialism" was
punctured by simple recalling the
days following the rebellion when the
vast army of the Union was peace
ably mustered out, much to the dis
appointment of the Democrats who
had prophesied that Grant was go
ing to set up an empire. All parties
had united in the war against Spain,
aud the whole people should stand
by the President until the questions
raised by that war are satisfactorily
of.
The captain had very little time
left for state issues, but promised
that if he were elected governor to
give clean, honest administration
in accord with what the people de-
sired.
There is no doubt that the captain
added to his many friends here by
his short. bat pointed speech.

HE ..BELoNdED TO OUR PARTY. .
At Elbow Lake, Gov. Lind Tells Why
He Appointed Judge SteldI.

We have maintained all along that
Coy. Lind is the cause of the Judge
ship of this district being the object
of political contest, and now the
governor has come out and said SO
himself. The Grant County Herald,
of Elbow Lake, in reporting Gov.
Lind's speech there on Monday night,
says that the governor said in sub
stance that before making his ap-
pointment.he looked over the field
carefully and found man in Grant
county-a Republican--who had
every requisite qualification for dis
trict judge. In Traverse county he
found another mana Democrat
whose qualifications were equally
good. ''Of course" said the COVER
nor, 81 appointed the man who be-
longed to our.party." He then asked
voters irrespective of party to endorse
the appointment. By his own ad-
mission then, the governor made
partisan appointment. Granting
that both.men we're equal in every
respect, no fault should be found
with the ssgoyernors action. The
voters of thisidistrict now have se-
lectionitolmake under the same con.
ditions, and they will do just as the
governor did: tho Republicans will
select Mr.. Flaherty, and the reform
ers will select Mr.. Steidl. The latter
became judge because the selection
rested with a Democratic governor.
And now Mr.. Flaherty will by the
same right be made judge because
Republican voters are in the majority
and have the say SO in the matter.
By the admission of the Governor,
the Democrats of this district are
stopped from all this gable about
Keeping the judgeship out of poll
tics" The governor showed prefer
ence for Democrat, because he was
a Democrat, and now the Repubi-
cans intend to elect Mr.. Flaherty.
because he is Republican, being as
sured also that he is a man of ability
and honesty who will fill the Office

A SWINDLE.
Have you Sold Your Potatoes for $40
Per Bushel.

A new and novel way of swindling
came to our notice few days ago
and a few of the farmersnea Stewart
are probably out $500 apiece.
Upon Investigating the scheme a
little we find that corporation was
formed last winter in an eastern state
with capital supposed to be $1,000,
10000. Shortly after the incorpora-
ton was formed the farmers in the
state of Minnesota and the Dakota S
received circulars stating that the
company had purchased new kind
Of potato which they had the exclu-
sive right to sell and guaranteed the
yield would be 900 bushels per acre.
They were selling this potato at $40
per bushel and in lots of not less than
two and half to acustomer These
potatoes were sold to the farmer who
gave his note for the required sum,
and it was orally agreed that the
company was to buy back quantity
of these potatoes, at fancy price
and of course they expected some
thing for nothing. The potatoes
were good clean specimans and Of
pinkish color and upon investigation
it is found they are common variety
of potato that had been washed and
then colored. OF course all the notes
were Immediately sold and when in
the hands of an innocent purchaser
the farmer has no choice but pay the
amount as called for. They do not
feel so bad about the paying the
amount for the potatoes but they do
want to sell the potatoes at the fancy
price agreed upon, but as they can
not find the address of the parties to
whom to ship and the agent has not
been around to see about buying the
potatoes, they will be obliged to keep
hem until spring or dispose of them

July Committee from Guaranty.
Word was received yesterday from
F. l. Whitney, general passenger and
ticket agent of the Great Northern,
that the Fourth of July Committee
were released from the $150 which
they had guaranteed to the company
for running the special train in the
evening of the Fourth FROM here to
Browns Valley.
The committee had every reason to
expect that there would be an atten-
dance of 200 from Browns Valley, but
mainly on account of the disagree
able weather the attendance did not
include many more than the base
ball team. On, account of this the
railroad company has done the very
graceful thing of releasing the COM
mittee from the guaranty.
The action of the company will be
all the more appreciated by the citi-.
zens of Morris from the fact that the
surplus can now go to the public
library fund, as originally voted by
the committee,
