Liquor License Law.

The grand jury adjourned last
Thursday morning, after handing
in five indictments and the report
as to the condition of the county
jail. The indictments were all for
selling liquor without a license and
to minors, and the parties wanted
for the misdemeanors were alleged
to have been doing business in Wa
basso at the time the misdemeanors
are alleged to have been committed.
Bench warrants were issued at
once, and on Thursday evening
Deputy Mclean brought in WalIy
Cady of Springfield, who has been
selling at Wabasso, according to
the indictments. One charged with

stondpoint. For half and hour or
more they received the gathering
throng and listened to expressions
of regret over their departure, and
congratulations to the people OF
Waterville over what was Redwood S
loss being Waterville' gain. At
the close of the handshaking and
farewell tributes a short program
was carried out. Miss Grace Ferris
sang solo, and was following by
Mrs. J. r. Lankard, also rendering
a solo, both of which were applaud
ed. Then came F. E. Ring on be-
half Of the Epworth League, who
made clever farewell speech, both
humorous and serious, in which he
spoke of the work of Mr.. and Mrs.
Martin for the League, as we'll as
their efforts in social circles. When
Mr.. Ring spoke Of Waterville as be-
ing summer resort and predicted
that many Redwood friends would
visit them in summer and remain
three or four months at a time,
there was much merriment. Mrs.
Arthur Jones and Rev. F. J. Bar
ackman rendered solos, both vocal
lists having to respond to encores.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Barack-
man S solo J. R. Lankard stepped
forward, and on behalf of the mem
bers OF the church presented the
couple with a handsome parlor
chair. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Martin
were deeply affected, and the form
er could do little more than express
his thanks and state that whatever
his future might be he would al
ways hold the people Of Redwood
Falls in kind remembrance. Mrs.
Martin also expressed her appreci-
alton Of the farewell reception. Fol-
lowing this the party was informal
until the dispersion.
Mr. and Mrs. Martin left on the
the noon train Thursday for their
future home in Waterville.

Judge Webber pointed out his
duties under the statutes, saying
that the sentence must be to the
Minnesota Training school at Red
Wing, where the governors of that
institution would do what was
deemed advisable for them, prob
ably placing one or two of the boys
in separate places there, and also
teach them some trade that would
be useful to them in future life.
They could be released on parole
at such time as the governors we're
satisfied that they would not violate
the parole. He then sentenced them
to the Training School. At the
close Of his sentence he told the
boys that their release depended
upon their own conduct while there.
He also cautioned them that as they
were all about Is years old, that on
their release they would have to be
very careful on drawing the line be-
tween sport and theft, as they
would probably be over Is years
old when released, and if they were
ever caught in another crime, it
would be penitentiary sentence,
sure. The boys were then placed
in charge Of Sheriff Pease, who ex-
pected to take them to the Training
School during the latter part of the
week.
Willie Winters, who was held to
the grand jury for larceny from the
store of Kuenzli & Luscher in June
last, was released from his bail, the
grand jury not having sufficient ev-
idence to warrant the Indictment of
the young man.
Members of the grand jury stated
to GAZETTE reporter that it was
the most painful duties of their
lives to bring the indictments
against the three boys, knowing
that it would take them from their
parents and send them to the train
ing school. They regarded all
three boys unusually bright, max
ing the matter all the worse.

6. & N. RAILROAD.
Capital Stock Increased from
$4,000 to S7.OOO,OO0.

$oO,OOO 10 4I.OUO,OO
The developments in connection
with the proposed construction OF
the Gulf & Manitoba railroad be-
came more bright last Friday, when
it was announced from st. Paul that
the railroad and warehouse CON-
mission had granted the application
of the company to increase it's CAPT.
tai stock from $50, 900 to 81, ,O00, 900.
On the morning following Frank
T. Campbell, who is now President
of the company, arrived in Redwood
Falls, after stay in the east for
several weeks, and was feeling ex-
ceptionally bright over the result Of
the mission of himself and associa-
ates in the Eastern markets.
Mr.. Campbell first denied having
talked with any reporters in St.
Paul, and stated that beyond any
statement that the application for
increase of capital stock had been
made and granted, the reports Of
interviews with him were untrue
But" he says, 1.-The G.. & M. is
now certainty-no longer paper
road, and will be one of the best
pieces of paying property in the
west. -
1t is understood that $4,000 has
already been advanced to construct
the line from Redwood Falls to Bird
Island, or some point on the Milwau-
kee system, the construction to COM
mence in very short time. On
Monday afternoon a representative
of English capitalists, accompanied
by a Mr.. Howard, a well-known
financial attorney of New York, ar
rived in this city, and the two men
are to go over the proposed line
with certain officials Of the &. & NJ,
for the purpose of obtaining an idea
of the country through which the
road passes. The English capital
lists are to take care Of the bonds for
the construction of the entire line
from Duluth to Cover, Missouri,
and when taken work on the entire
system is to be pushed.
The Pioneer Press of last Friday
morning has report regarding the
increase of capital, which is con-
firmed by Mr. Campbell, and which
is as follows:
'Frank E. Campbell, President of
the proposed Gulf & Manitoba, yes
terday obtained permission from the
State railroad commission to in-
crease the capital stock of the road
from $4,000 to $1,000, ,OO0 on a sat
isfactory showing that the company
is expending its stock for construc-
tion and right of way. Mr.. Camp
bell stated that S15,0 more than
the capital of the road had already
been expended, and that the de-
sired increase was for carrying on
and completing the project
The road will run from Duluth
via Willmar and Ces Moines to Kan
sas City, and construction work
will commence at Redwood Falls,
this State, and extend both ways.
Considerable preliminary work has
already been done and there is a
good prospect that capital to push
the work will be available. y

Great Growth In BANK DopO0ltS Wtulo
tho First Five Years.
Colorado, Idaho, Montana and Wy
oming have made remarkable pro-
gress on the road to wealth during the
present Republican administration.
This is due to several causes, such as
the increased demand by manufac-
lures for mineral products now that
the policy of protection gives the home
market to homemade goods. Another
reason is that protection to wool has
doubled the value of the farmers clip.
and all OF these four states are wool
states. Still another reason is the es-
tablishment Of the gold standard,
which gives us stable currency and
more settled business conditions. Add
to these three main causes the gem
eral prosperity Of the country which
has created a better demand for farm
products, and the reasons have been
assigned for the great increase In the
bank deposits Of those states, as shown
by the following table:

II Republicans can be coerced, In
timidated or cajoled into postponing
the consideration Of the Ship Subsidy
Bill at the present session, the Demo-
Gratis may be able to conceal their own
weakness in divided opposition to the
Ship Subsidy Bill in the Senate. A
little incident has clearly demon
strated this, and shown the despera-
ton OF the Democratic leaders.
The Chairman Of the Democratic
National Committee, in his rage at
the filing of the Chanler-Small-Rans-
dell report, sent for these gentlemen
and began to angrily upbraid them as
traitors to their party, so the report
goes, and he told them that by their
ill-timed exhibition Of independence
and honesty they had sacrificed a
splendid issue upon which the Demo-
crafts could have attacked the Repub-
licans in the coming cdmpaign. The
Democratic Chairman. so It is said,
was rendered almost speeohless when
he was very emphatically told by
Messrs. Chanler, Small and Ransdell
that he had no authority to denounce
their action, that the Democratic
party had not declared itself on this
subject in its last national platform,
and that In any event they were de-
cidedly opposed to the dragging Of the
shipping question into partisan poll
tics. They told him that the chipping
question was business proposition, .
commercial question. and Of great and

Master Of the stea m.

There is one thing for which an en-
gineer is noted. This is the absolute
obedience of orders. He is brought up
on that from the time he starts to mr.
ing till he becomes a graduate and
takes charge Of an engine. Then he
becomes the instructor of others, and,
OF course, never loses the main point.
There is a story told Illustrative OF
this. Two men were applicants for
positions on one of the railroads In
Boston not long ago. They both want
ed to be engineers, and there was but
one place vacant. The superintendent
before whom they appeared asked one
a question, which ran after this fash
ion: Suppose you were on siding
with orders for train to pass A
message would go over the wire that
the oncoming train for which you were
waiting was two hours late. What
would you do?'' The first one was
asked the question, and he pulled his
hat down over his face and said: 4
dunno. That is the conductors Job,
not mine" The superintendent said
he might leave his address, and II they
needed him they would drop him q
line. The second man was standing at
respectful distance, with his cap in
his hand. and was asked the same
question. II tell you, sir" he said.
IF the orders looked all right, and l
thought the signature was good and
all that, would stand on that siding
forever" II guess you had better re-
port to the roundhouse for duty" said

WESTERN BANK DEPOSITS.

Within five years there has been an
increase of more than 100 per cent in
the total bank deposits Of these four
states. Who will say that the West
is not prospecting under Republican

West, and this can be assured by vot-
