The commercial club OF Minot
now should get all OF the impor-
tant daily papers and magazines
to be sent to the rooms, and we
believe that if the matter is pre-
sented to the publishers Of those
papers in the right manner, we
can get them without a cents
outlay. We have placed the club
ION the Independents list free OF
charge.
H. Marean, OF the James SEQ
field force, tells a good one on a
young Chicago lady who has a
claim near where he was setting
up a binder. The farmer went to
milk and the young lady asked
if she could not assist. She took
a five gallon lard can and a
small chair and went after bos-
sic, but could get no milk.
Mr.. Keller, OF the Kelley Mfg.
Co., Of Sank Center, Mimi, was
in Minot Monday visiting his
old time friend John Botz, Sr.
Both are strong Democrats, but
while Mr.. Botz will vote for
Parker this fall, Keller says he
will cast his vote for Roosevelt.
He was a Grover Cleveland Demo-
crat.

are always given a little chance
to expand, not being placed up
against each other.
A preacher from Des Laos who
| is as small as his name, refused
to allow a young lady to ride in

holm, Sunday because her ride
was not to fulfill some religious
duty" Such a mortal should
mot eat bread on Sunday because
some mills grind on that day
land he might get a mouthful OF
the product from those mills.
C. +. Weiland, manager Of the
Minot creamery, heard few
kicks regarding the creamery
butter, and upon looking up the
matter, finds that the creamery
butter was not from the Minot
creamery at all. The butter is
giving the best OF satisfaction
When you buy this butter, ask
Tor the pound prints with the
Golden Rod brand. The cream.
cry is making 20 tubs OF butter
a week.
i. Now that most of the furniture
for the commercial club has beer
placed, suggest that the rooms
be opened formally. Let each
member invite one or two friend!
and let a banquet be served. Thu
business men who are not yet
members OF the club should bt
especially invited. We have beer
through the club rooms in ST
Paul and while ours may not bt
quite SO spacious, they are fully
