CRUSHED UNDER THE CARS
Brakeman Holland Meets . Horrible
Death at Litehf1sld While on
Duty Out Of Willmar.

The startling news was received in
this city last night of the death of
Brakeman Albert Holland as the re-
suit of an accident near Litchfie1d.
Holland was employed as head brake
man on an extra freight in charge of
Conductor McNulty, which left Will
mar in the afternoon. It had pulled
out of Litch6eld and was some dis
tance down the line when 1t was dis
covered that Holland was missing
from the train. An investigation
was made by the train crew and he
was picked up later in a horribly
mangled condition. The details of
the terrible aft air are meager at this
writing, but from what we can learn
it seems that Holland had missed his
footing In some manner and fallen
between the cars. He had undoubted-
ly been dragged some distance, for
his body was cut in several places.
One leg and an arm were cut off and
there was also cut across the shoul.
ders. The injuries were of so serious
a nature that the victim lived but a
short time.
Holland had been employed here on
the road for the past year. He is
a young unmarried man and is said
to have his home in Wisconsin. Mil
waukee and Boscobel, Wis, are both
given as places where relatives reside.
Deceased was a member of the Bro
therhood of Railway Trainmen and
carried an insurance policy of $1,000.
His sudden death in such 8 horrible
manner will occasion much regret
especially in railroad circles, with
whom he was quite popular.

JONAS G. M0NS0N FOR SHERIFF.
A Republicans Idea.

One of the most important county
Offices is without doubt the sheriff's.
It is that to the farmers no less than
to the city people. I would like to
call the attention of the farmers of the
republican creed to one of the candi-
dates for that Office, Mr.. Jonas G.
Monson. He is a farmer. He has seen
the ups and downs of pioneer life and
the development of this county for al
most a third of a century. He has
been tax payer Of the county for
over 30 years. His sympathy and in
terest are with the farming population.
I think all this means a great deal.
He is Independent of the saloon in
terest. This ought not to be forgotten.
He is an intelligent and experienced
man in matters pertaining to county
affairs. This none will deny, and
that, too, means great deal. It must
be admitted that he is not under 30
years and has no college diploma.
But that is not against him by any
means. He is hale and hearty and full
of energy like young man and he
knows the duties of his Office. His
ideas in national politics, as for in
stance the money question of 1900 and
the Filipino question has nothing to
do with the honest discharge of the,
duties as county officer. There are
numerous republicans, who do not
appreciate the Filipino war or the
American possession of foreign coun-
tries. But that has nothing TO do
with the faithful discharges of the
duties of county officer. Mr.. Mon
son is we'll qualified for that Office.
And the farmers should see to that
they mark clear x after his name on
election day. The writer votes the
through republican ticket, both ma
tional and state. But in certain rare
cases he takes liberty to vote on the
candidates for county Offices, whom he
thinks best fitted. National politics
has nothing to do with county interest,".
A county officer should be q man IL Il
honestly and we'll discharges his du.
ties and none will deny but that M.
Jonas G. Monson Is the man to s.
our next sheriff a REpuIlB11o,An "

perfect health. A little after two
O'Clock in the morning he arose on
account of weak spell which came
over him and his condition became so
alarming that a physician was at
once summoned. Dr. Johnson respond
ed to the call, bat arrived too late to
render any assistance, and the end
came at three O'Clock.

Political Notes,

A rumor has it that the county is to

election. Let them come.
Our esteemed contemporary now es-
Inmates majority of 700 for Van SAINT
in the county. 1t will tell different
story next week.
Next week the TRIBUNE will tell who
won as we'll who fell outside of the
breastworks. A mans ''hindsight'
is generally better than his foresight.
As Senator Young will not be in the
next senate, the interests that reserved
so well are strenuously endeavoring
to elect member upon whom they can
depend.>
Hon. Frank M. Nye of Minneapolis,
and A. J. Volstead, republican can.
didate for congress, are booked by the
republican county committee for
speeches. at the Willmar opera house
next Monday evening.
There are three candidates for coun-
ty Offices who are carrying the card
campaign to such an extreme as to
make it q nuisance in some instances.
Not only do they tack them onto every
telephone pole and available fence
board but on farm machinery, wag-
ons, houses, etc. - -.
The Atwater Press takes Senator
Grue to task in its last issue and
says Grue's vote in favor of the She'll
bach bill which would repeal the An
ders0n tax law should be. explained.
Tie Anderson tax law is chapter 1853
of the laws of 1895. The Shellbach
bill, which Grue voted for was 80 bill
for an act to amend section 1869 OF
the General Statutes of 1894, relating
to the taxation of railroads" (See
Senate journal, of 1899, page 1897
and contains no reference Whatever to
the Anderson law. The bill evidently
|contained merit and only three votes
were registered against It In repub-
Ncan senate. This taken together
with the fact that the Anderson tax
law was declared unconstitutional BY
1.-The supreme court Of the United States
lmakes the Press attack upon Grue
afbear simply ridiculous.

QUESTION OF PATIENCE.
stubborn Calves Are Not N~nnuuished
by stubborn Feeders. Hut Readily
Yield 60 Kindness.

The skim milk calf has come to stay.
by careful feeding that skim milk is the
cheapest and best feed for a calf, cspc-
cially for the dairy calf. The greatest
trouble Is the danger of oyer.feeding.
Most people seem to think that because
skim milk isn't very rich they must
give the calf lots Of IL, SO they pour
II down him by the bucket. without
stopping TO think what a calls stomach
is like, and the result Is that they soon
have a lot of "pot-bcllied' calves,
writes j. L. Smith IN the Kansas
Farmer.
When the cnlf Is n few days old he Is
taken away from the COW and put into
: pen or shed to be taught how to drink
skim milk. Then the fun commences.
II the calf will not drink the milk right
oil, aud Is u little stubborn, the fellow
whU - trying to feed him usually gets
mao. jumps straddlc of the calls neck.
backs him up In a corner, grabs hold OF
the calls head with both hands.
and rams IL down In the milk to the
bottom Of the pail. Then the calf gets
mad and bawls, and tries to get away.
gets stranglcd. and finally succeeds in
,pilling the milk.
II is best to have q little patience
with the calf, and remember that II
does not have very much sense at first.
After II has sucked the cow two or
three times 1t should be taken away
and put In n good, clean pen and fed
IN It's mothers milk for a week or
two. Then begin TO gradually reduce
the whole milk and add a little skim
milk each day, until within a coupe u
weeks II will he ON skim milk alone.
A good substitute for the fat removed
Is a little cornmcal given after drink
Ing. This will also keep them from
sucking each other. Over feeding. ir.
regular feeding. or feeding cold. sou
milk is apt TO cause scours with the
calves.
70 feed skim milk fresh from the
hand separator on the farm Is the best
way. because II Is always warm aud
sweet. The skim milk from the crcam-
cry Is all right, but In warm weather
Il will not keep sweet very long unlcs,
II Is stcrillcd well aud thoroughly
cooled when brought home.

Doubtless the problem Of housing and
feeding them through the winter will
