To the General Public

Within the past two weeks two of
our most prominent business men,
have taken advantage of our misfor-
tune and Inconvenience caused by the
new sewer and water system, to ship
laundry to Minneapolis and outside
concerns. We will leave it to the fair
minded public, is it not better to sup
port home institutions which employ
home help and support home indus
tries in their dealings, than send their
money to some far distant town that
has no interest in our citys welfare?
Notwithstanding the fact that our work
has not been upto the standard the past
two weeks, all our neighboring towns
have stayed with this institution and
have been loyal to Milbank and its
welfare.
Trusting that our Milbank citizens
will carefully consider this matter and
weigh the problem we'll, will we pat
tronize home industries or send our
money away.
Yours very truly,
j. S. DEFOREST.

 / RUINS TWO STOCKS,
Early Morning Blaze Thursday Destroys Building Occupied By Mrs. Hattie Moore's Millinery and J. w.
 Jackson.

., Front street suffered a loss by Sxg isaNy Thursday morning in nduction of two business )nlce the partial demolition -ose Ssie no building owned by Mrs. Cora w. Spencer Of Denver, Col, niece of N. B. Wishon.
 Mrs. Hattie Moore's stock of millinery was completely ruined by fire and water, her loss being estimated at $2,000, with only $7OO insurance. Her stock was invoiced at s, 900 the first of the year, but had been consider bly, reduced.
 J. w. Jackson is the next heaviest lose~, his stock of wall paper, pictures and paints being ruined. He estimates the dam age at $9O0, and we are sorry to state had no insurance. A DOT tion of his stock, consisting of oils, turpentine and paints, was stored in an outbuilding to the rear and luckily this was kept free of the flames, or the confa- grafton would doubtless have spread to surrounding property. B. Wishon, who had an office in the rear of Jackson's store, lost his belongings, but the loss is covered by $250 in- surance.
 The building proper was fully insured, as the policy of $1, 800 will cover loss. J. B. Doherty, occupying the store of Bailey Bros, next door, sustained a slight loss from water, but he is fully protected.
 The fire was discovered by Baxter Watson at 2::30 a. m., and it was at that time confined to the rear of the millinery store, but soon broke through the frame portion into Jackson's.
 ! The origin of the fire is a mys- ltery that will probably never be Ssolved. The fire department re- Bponded promptly and performed their work well.
