Muskrats have been killed by whole

Gold Bug City in grand style. In the
morning the town looked just as if a
cyclone had been going over it, as
everything loose was either turned
over or carried off to some other
point. Empty barrels, kegs and pop
boxes were taken from the store
grounds and piled up by the house oc-
cupied by the blacksmith, and was de-
signated as blind pig. The auction
sale held at Halvorson Bros was we'll

the pops are all dead. I don't believe

will Buy Corn.

The enterprising firm P. H. Roise
& Co. have sta1 ted a venture that
bids fair to be OF great benefit both to
Willmar and the vicinity. Realizing
that this is becoming a great corn
country, but that there is no local
market for the surplus corn they have
gone into the business of buying corn
for shipment. They have just erected
q corn crib on the lot east of Wig
dahl's woodward, and are now ready
to receive corn If the venture proves
successful they will put up more build
ings and enlarge the business. We
hope to see them succeed. The, large
number of farmers that have come in
here from southern Minnesota and
Iowa the past two years will make
speciality Of raising corn, and their
trade will 60 to the point that gives
them the best market for their pro-
ducts. Willmar has lost some trade
this fall because there is no such mar
ket here. An increased acreage of
corn will increase the fertility Of many
farms that have been exhausted by
wheat raising. ,..z. e.. :.*s :: *"ass # .t = :, 4

The City Charter Election.

The proposed city charter comes up
for adoptio IN or rejection by the legal
voters of the village at a special elec.
tion to be held next Tuesday. The
council has caused 70 be- distributed
with the newspapers Of the city a
thousand copies of the charter, and
everyone desiring a copy has had
chance to secure it free of cost. New
ertheless, there seems to be a great
deal of misunderstanding rife as to
what the exact provisions of the char.
ter really are. Indeed, it appears at
this writing to be a question whether
the charter will carry or not, great as
is the need for proper organization
to meet the demands for good govern
ment in our rapidly growing town. It
has been suggested, and we believe
that the suggestion is agood one, that
public meetings be called for the free
discussion Of the proposed charter. In
this way it might be possible for a
large, number of our citizens who have
neither the time or disposition to STU
dy the charter for themselves to gain
clearer idea of the provisions of this
proposed form of government for our
city. Whatever the shortcomings of
the charter may be, it will if adopted
be great improvement over the obso.
lete and Ineffective charter now sup
posed to be in force. Under the new
charter amendments may be submitted
at any time within five years; under
the old charter no relief is possible.

4 FIVE THOUSAND DOLLAR BLAZE.
ne Wsstberg Building is .outtsd and
Some Valuable Stock Dastrovad.

oSS0otG 0ulIo1ng Is 0uteod and
some Valuable Stock Destroyed.
The citizens OF Willnnar were rudelv
awakened at midnight last night by
the clamorous tones of the IRE bell.
The fire was in the west part of the
Westberg block, having apparently
started in the hallway between the
tailor shop and Sundquist's confec-
tlonery store. The fire department
was soon on the ground, but the fire
had gained such headway in the old
tire trap OF a building that all that
could be done was to fight its further
progress. The brick fire walls on
either side and the fact that the wind
was light undoubtedly were the fac
tors that saved the east end of the
block and Lund g. Olson's hardware
store. The building between those
walls was wrecked, with the exception
OF the tailor shop in the rear of the
building.
The rooms occupied by o. j. Sund-
quist were the property of O. H. West
berg. He also had q half interest in
the rest of the building, the other half
being the property of Mrs. Mary J.
Berg. Mr.. Westberg estimates his
loss at 81 500; insurance, $3.50. Mrs.
Berg's loss is about $500; insurance,
$3.50 o. j. Sundquist had $4OO in
surance, which just covers the value
of the fixtures, the entire stock being
a total loss. G.. O. Sands stock of
gents furnishing goods was totally
destroyed. He estimates his loss at
81, 500; insurance, $500. G. A. Bak-
lund had little store room in the
burned part, in which he kept several
thousand negatives and a large stock
of picture mouldings. He estimates
his loss at $500, and through the neg
lect of an insurance agent formerly
located here it appears that there is
no insurance on this.
The tenants in the Westberg & Berg
building on the corner were given a
lively scare, and great deal of mer-
chandise was removed to places of
safety while the fire ragged.
