Justice Court Matters.

On Tuesday, William Sullivan was
before Juatice Stenger on the charge
of using abusive language to Mar
shal Zahl. He was fined $40 and
costs.
On Wednesday, Iver johnson, of
Donnelly, was short-chsnged out of

discovered the shortage, he telephon-

their descriptions. No such men ar
rived from Donnelly, but later it was
learned that they had passed to the
east of Morris, and had gone to Han
cock to spend the night. They were
arrested by Sheriff Delahunt and on

Supt. Ross Resigned.

At the school board meeting Mon.
day night, Miss Mae Barker was elec-
ted to the third and fourth grades Of
the Lincoln school, Miss Walker, who
was formerly chosen, having failed to
accept. Miss Barker comes here from
the Northfeld schools. Her home IS
in Monticello.
Supt. Ross rendered his resigna-
tion but the boal d took no steps to
elect successor. Mr.. r 1ss has de-
cided to go out of school work al
together. although he has not yet de-
cided j4 what he will do. It is a
move that he has bt IN contemplating
for some time. Both the Times and
the Sun we're in error in stating that
the matter of an increase of saia1y
was the point of difference between
Mr. Ross and the scnool board-if
there was any point of difference.
At Mr.. Ress's request the matter of
electing superintendent has been
laid over for two meetings :, order
that he might beside on whether to
continue in school work or not, and
there has meanwhile been discussion
favorable to raising his salary 500.
Although Mr.. Ross's departure will be
a heavy loss from the ranks of the
educators, and especially regretted in
Morris, vet he is to be congratulated
upon his decision. An educator when
he passes middle life is always re
legated to class distressihgly akin
to that of the "has-been" politician.

Climate and Crop Bulletin.

The climate and crop bulletin of
the weather bureau, for the week
ending May 6, 1901 says
The middle of the week was excep-
tionallv warm, with temperatures on
the 1st and End about 80 in western
and southern portions. In many
places these high temperatures have
not been equaled at this season for
many years. During the week there
has been little OF no rain in the Red
River valley, but there we're locally
heavy showers in central-western
counties on the 29th and Both, and in
widely scattered small areas in the
South on the End and 4th. On the
5th and the morning of the 9Th there
were light rains except in northern
portions. In Kittson, Marshall and
parts of Polk counties heavy lands
we're too wet for seeding early in the
week because of the rain of the 26th
ulto.; elsewhere in the Red River
valley, wheat, oats and barley seeding
is we'll advanced, and early wheat is
up nicely. In the extreme s-utheast
where the season opened late, and IN
central-western portions where local
rains delayed work early in the week,
there are still small areas to be seed
ed, but in other portions all seeding
but fax is finished. Preparations
are going on rapidly for the planting
of corn and potatoes and flax sowing,
and in many southern counties fax
seeding and potato planting are we'll
advanced, and some corn is planted.
All vegetation has made an unusually
rapid growth, and pastures are gener-
ally being used for grazing. Early
wheat and oats have grown 80 ragidly
during the warm period that there
we're fears that stooling would not 60
on. The surface soil is very dry in
much of the southern half of the
state, and late sown grains are not
terminating evenly. Fruit promises
we'll generally, but the apple blossom
seems deficient in parts of the Min
nesota valley.

to the Minneapolis Journal Wash

which he said:
''In many respects it is an ideal dis
trict. 1t is both contiguous" and
Compact" as can be seen from a
glance at the map, and has a COM
monality of interest. There is no
county or city large enough to domi-
nate the district, as is the case in
nearly every other district in the state.
1t is safely republican and from re-
publican standpoint it might we'll be
termed the statesman district, for
more prominent party leaders reside
therein than in any other district.
Governor Smith, Governor Rice,
Speaker Bowling, Senators Young,
Jones, Reeves, Representatives ia
cobson, Larson, Judges Brown and
Flaherty and many others, who for
many years have been leaders in the
councils of the party, reside within
it's boundaries.

nomination next year Il do not mean
that all these gentlemen ara candi-
dates. but that any one of them
would make an excellent congress-

no matter how spirited the contest, it

who will be successful, but | am
