The new law IN regard to the ap
pointment of University cadets by
the legislators has many cool fea
lures, not the least important Of
which is the free advertising it gives
the University. Every time cadet
is appointed, the county papers
chronicle the. fact, with praises for
the young man and the legislator
who appointed him. This brings
the institution closer home to many
people than anything else could, and
creates healthy rivalry for the APP
pointments.

BOLD BURGLARY,
Tapping of Money Till at B. &
o. Has Puzzling Features.
ONCE Was Empty Only About Twenty
MInutes-S170 Taken and S4S Left
Office Was L0cked-Money Till
was Locked-No Violence Used
Mr.. Wright Made Loss Coed

The robbery of the money drawer In
the 3. & o. ticket Office here yesteF
day was one OF the boldest ever COM
mitted, and has many peculiar fea-
lures, which puzzle the police, aud
which rendered it more mysterious as
it is more closely investigated.
Mr.. j. w. Wright, the b. Il o.
agent, left about noon To go to his
dinner. j. W. Thornton, the tee.
graph operator, usually remains IN the
Office while Wright is out. Yester-
day, he went out for his dinner, leaY-
ing the Office empty for about 20 min
utes, not longer.
When the agent returned, be I'M
locked the door, inserted the key In
the money till, and left 1t. Later, he
opened the till, and counted the mon
ey. There was $48. Is. He had left
$218.15 cents in the drawer. Part of
this was In bills, part In checks, and
there was some coin, Mr.. Wright
remembered of leaving 3 ten dollar
bills on top Of book In the money
| drawer These were taken. Some
five dollar bills, some checks and some
coin was in that which was left. The
purpose OF the thief 10 leaving so much
cannot be satisfactorily explained =.
He may have left 1T to prevent Mr.
Wright from making the discovery
He may have left it because he was
in hurry to get away.
AS soon as Mr.. Wright made the
discovery, be notified policeman Yoke
who responded at once. Chief Price
and Yoke went up the railroad to-
wards the pump station, and arrest
ed negro and white man who
could not give satisfactory account
OF themselves. The white man said
his name was Graham, and that he
was from PittsDurg. He was on his
way there, and had come fron Graf
ton on foot. Both negro and white
man were locked up.
Graham and the negro were seen
around the station 1t is said, and
Graham is said to have carried small
satchel This he did not have when
j,arrssted, and has never made any in
kQuiries about 1t.
Thornton who left the ONCE last,
lays it was locked, and that he put
fthe windows down. The entra nee is
Tsupposed to have been made tn rough
the small window next TO the bu lletin
board. This was up a few inches
when Thornton returned, but he is
moisture he put it down close.
The money drawer had not been
broken open, but Mr.. Wright says the
lock works as though it had been
tempered with. He made the loss
good yesterday evening by a personal
check.
Policeman Shoemaker and Garrison
went to PIT. Marion at $40 but found
no trace Of any one who could be sus-
pected. 1t is believed here that the
robbery was committed by the same
person who cut the mail sack, and
went through the caboose some time
ago. The robber is some one well
acquainted with the conditions, and
location of everything about the Office

upon which a portion of the Red

entry. The timber lands in. this
tract will be reserved it being only
the agricultural lands that can be
fled upon and acquired at the
uniform price of $l25 per acre..
payable in five equal annual install

be a great rush for these lands, and
those contemplating going there
to secure a quarter section will

ANOTHER CITY ELECTION.
Regular Election of City Officials
ON November 8.

Now that Morris has been made a
city, the law provides that the regular
city elections shall be held on the
first Tuesday after the first Monday
IN November on the odd numbered
years. Election of new city officials
will therefore be held a week from
next Tuesday, November 9th.
The council which has given Nor
ris such an efficient, economic and
business like administration during
the past summer should be accorded
unanimous reelection. The coun-
Gil is inside up of business men, all of
whom have plenty Of business of
their own to which to devote their
time, yet they have ungaudgingly de-
voted their time to the business Of
the city, watshing.it as they would
their own. No council has been
more faithful to the interests of the
village, and none could be selected
which would be.more faithful, LIE te~zt the
interestsef the new city. Not only
has their administration been econom-
ical, but it has also been progressive
without being wasteful, and during
the year it has heen their constant
care to conserve the funds and inn
prove the city to the greatest poss-
ible extent. Furthermore, this has
done impartially and without favors
shown.
The new city of Morris owes it to
itself to accord unsnimous re-
election to the present council.
Since the above article was written,
we understand that Mayor Long is
absolutely refusing to run agiap, and
urging that John House be chosen as
the first mayor of the city of Morris, a
selection that would be particularly
good on account of Mr.. Houses long
residence here. This would leave
only Messrs. Hogan and Lund of the
old council, and we understand that
the many friends of these men are
urging them to accept membership of
the council again. The names of
Henry Olson and Louis Dreveskracht
have been suggested for the other
two places, and in the selection of
these two men, we would heartily
concur. They are both comparative;
ly young men, but of good character,
unquestioned popularity, and I'M
questioned integrity,

IMPORTANT
TO DAIRYMEN
STABLES MUST BE CLEAN
They rlust be Well Lighted, VentiIat-
ed and Drainage Provided
Before Dec. 1.

w. w. P. Mcconnell, state dairy
and food commissioner issues the
following bulletin, which will be of
interest to the dairymen o. this coun-
ty: Being deeply interested in secur-
ing the best and purest supply of
milk possible for consumption in the
cities and towns OF our state and be-
lieving it to be in the interest of the
producer to furnish an article. the
purity of which commends itself to
the consumer, we therefore, at this
early date, request ard rule that all
barns or stables where COWS are Kept
and from which the milk is sold for
consumption, either at Wholesale or re
tail, shall be put in first class SAM
tary condition before December LIST
1908. All barns and stables must be
we'll lighted, ventilated and drainage
provided that will keep the ground
dry under the floor. The arrange
ment of the barn mnst be 80 COM
plete that the cows can be kept
clean. All foods used must be free
from decay and fermentation or any
thing that will injure the milk.
Cows must not be permitted to drink
from stagnant poole. Where cattle
from a herd have been condemned
and killed because of the presence OF
tuberculosis the premises wherein
they wer.4 kept must be thoroly
whitewashed, adding tc the white
wash sufficient carbolic acid TO des-,
troy the lurking germs. Unless the
sanitary condition suggested are
bought into effect you cannot hope
to supply pure and healthful art
icle of milk and we therefore trust it
will be your pleasure to cooperate
with this department in it's endeavor
t. improve the milk supply of our
state. Disease cannot be eradicated
nor can better milk be supplied I'M
less wise safeguards be practiced and
better sanitary methods be adopted.
Minnesota is renowned for the purity
and excellence of its dairy: products
and it should be the desire and wish
of all our citizens that the standard
may not only be maintained but 80
perfected that 1t will have no rival.
We therefore, ask all milk vehders to
whitewash their barns on the inside.
As soon as milk is drawn from the
cow it should be cooled and aerated
and kept in detached building at
low temperature until taken to mar
ket. All vessels and utensils in which
Gailk is drawn or kept must be thor
oughly cleaned with boiling water
and aired. The Dairy and Food De-
partment will, when requested. send
competent man to advise and assist |
in making Improvements of places
where COWS are kept. 1t is our pur-
pose to have necessary improvements
made as economically as possible. We
have confidence to believe that the
reasonableness of the above ruling
will commend itself to all concerned,
as it will tend to protect the health
of your herds as we'll as the people
who consume your products.
