CAUSES CRITICISM.
Milwaukee Roads New Location for
Freight Depot Not Liked.
From Thursdays Daily.

from thursdays Dally.
The Mankato Business Mems associa
ton, at its meeting last night, devoted
large part of its time to discussion of
the plan of the Milwaukee road to To-
cate its freight depot in front of it's
present passenger depot on Hickory
street. A strong protest against the
location selected was made by the MEM
bers 1t was felt to be an entirely
wrong move for the new union depot
to be located behind stores and the old
freight depot placed in the middle of the
street, where it will always stand as
an eyesore. 1t is certainly to be hoped
that the road will change its plans in
this respect.
The matter of the. location of a straw
board factory in the city was talked
over, and it was felt that such factory
would be beneficial, as the material can
be secured from the farmers and there
would be ready sale for the material.
The matter of giving some Kind of
an entertainment in. the fall for the far
mers and everybody else was favored and
was referred to the committee on enter
tainments to report plan.

WAR is AT AN END.
Municipal Lighting Plant at New UIm
In Control of the Field.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
New Ulms electric light war has been
brought to an end, the council having
purchased portion of the plant
of the New Ulm Electric Light
company, private corporation
that has been doing business in
that city for some years. The considera-
ton was $500 and the purchase includes
the poles and wiring. This leaves the
city in possession of the field and the
municipal plant erected year ago will
supply the demand for light
The fight in New Ulm was fierce in its
character and the price per 1000 watts
was reduced to eight cents and neither
the city nor the private concern could long
afford to furnish lighting so cheaply.
Last night the city council agreed to
make the purchase stated above, nego-
tiations having been on for some weeks.
In all probability the price of light
ing in New Ulm will now be advanced to
l21. cents per 1000 watts.

BUBBLES" BE LICENSED.
Law Passed BY the Recent Legisla.
ture Says So.
From Thursdays Daily

rIOm IHuISudy Ldily.
The last session of the legislature
passed an act regulating automobiles,
and among other provisions was the fol-
lowing:
Section 5. Before any automobile, mo-
tor vehicle or motor cycle shall be driven
or operated upon any public road, high
way or street within this state, the own.
er thereof shall take out license for
said automobile, motor vehicle or motor
cycle, which said license shall be issued
by any state boiler Inspector in the coun-
ty-where such automobile, motor vehicle
or motor cycle is owned. Any person OBJ
tanning such license shall pay for the
same the sum of two dollars to said boil
er inspector, who shall issue such license
and shall record each license by number
in consecutive order The number of
each license shall be painted in plain
figures upon the back part of each ma
chine in conspicuous place, and said fig
ufeS snail not be less IMAM TOUR ana one
half inches high and of proportionate
width"
The law provides that every automo-
bile shall be licensed in the county in
which it is owned, one-half of the license
fee going in to the county treasury and
the rest into the boiler inspectors peck
et
The law is very much i'll the nature of
a farce. 1t does not provide for any in
spection- of the machine. The owner
simply planks down his two dollars and
gets license. The license is good for
ever and goes with the machine no matter
how often the machine is sold.

NO TRACE OF SECOR.
Winnebago Bank Cashier Still Among
the Missing.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Winnebago City continues to be con-
siderably wrought up over the sudden
and unexplained disappearance of MIR.
Secor, the cashier of the bank in that
place. Not trace of him has been
found, and his friends are more than
ever convinced that he is the victim of
foul play.
When the disappearance of Mr.. Secor
became known in Winnebago City the de-
positors of the bank became somewhat
alarmed, fearing that he had embezzled
funds and had left the country for parts
unknown. \ run was started on the
bank and quite a quantity of money had
been withdrawn when President Eyga-
broad made the announcement to the
depositors that they need have no fear
of the banks condition, that he would
pay dollar for dollar, besides interest on
money that had been on deposit for a
long time. Added to this he would give
each depositor an extra S. bill.
Mr.. Eygabroad's statement treasured
the depositors and no more money was
withdrawn and those who mad pulled
their money out We're quick to replace it.
As has been stated in these columns
Mr.. Sccor's valise and umbrella were
found at the Plankinton Hotel in Mil
waukee where he had left them When
he took his departure from Winnebago
MIR. Secor had in his possession about
s65. Detectives were engaged to hunt
up the lost man, but their efforts to find
even a trace of him have been futile.
Mr.. Secor left Winnebago about two
weeks ago. Mrs. Secor is in a very ner-
Ious condition and receives the constant
are of physicians.
Mr.. Secor's affairs at the bank are in
irst class shape.
