Mrs. Viola Long, the widow of
the late George NJ. Long of Walnut
Grove, will soon be recommended
by Representative Volstead for the
position of postmistress of Walnut
Grove to succeed her late husband.
Mr. Volstead, with many of the Re-
publicans interested in the appoint

E. E. Harriott was in from Wa
basso last Tuesday and Wednesday,
securing copies of all the papers
committing John g. Smith to jail for
contempt of court. Mr.. Harriott
states that he is still the leading
counsel in the case, and expects to
be, although A, B. Jackson may be
called in to assist him. Mr.. Harri-
oft will appeal to the supreme court
from the order of Judge Weber
committing Smith to Jail, and this
means that Smith must languish in
jail some time after Oct. 4th, when
the fall term of that body opens for
business. On that day the appeals
will be set for hearing, which will
probably be at an early date as
possible, and then the court will
probably take ten days for deci-

he has plenty of Minnesota authori-
ties to base his appeal on and con-
fidentally expects dismissal of the
contempt proceedings. He will not
apply for release under the habeas
corpus act.

Eccentriques. Gregory, the hoop
roller and iuggler, Mystic quartette,
Harvey, clever baton manipulation.
N. V. R. Hunter, who has been

semi weekly Standard, containing
the following item regarding New
York wheat field: Frank b. Trapp
of Mclean fully realizes this year,
that, although this is not a section
of country that is generally sup
posed to be favorable to wheat rails
ing, yet wheat may be raised here
with great success. He has just
completed his threshing OF the crop
raised upon A acres of land. He
sowed nine bushels of grain, two
