Gus WILSON is touring the State for the
Republicans. Gus is nice, clean fellow
and plausible talker, but he lacks courage.
The amount of kicks and cuffs he has
s:ood from his party would have driven a
brave man to fight or suicide. He seems
to like it, however. Every time he offers
for nomination he is booted out into the
Street, until he has been kicked so full of
holes that he can hardly hold his breath.
He must like it because he keeps coming
back for more. Every fresh kick seems
to incite Gus to fervid bursts of oratory.
He is so accustomed to these leatherp Jars
that he can not begin his speech until
some strong fellow rushes up behind him
and hands him a swift kick.

junior all they can do to keep pace with
him. A temperate, correct life has given
him constitution of iron. With perfect
physical health he has brain equipment
that makes him master over enterprises of

country would be fortunate indeed to have
so sane and sound a man as presiding

ON THE NJ. @ ST..
Rails Spread on an EaSt-BOund Freight
When Two Miles West of
Delhi Thursday Night.
No One Was Hurt, but Fifteen CarsuDe-
rallied and Several Rods of
Track Torn Up.

A St. Louis freight train, pulled
by two engines, was wrecked q
couple of miles west of Delhi last
Thursday night, the first freight
car ditched being thrown from the
tracks on the town line between
Delhi and Kintire.
Spreading rails caused Is cars to
leave the track, Ii of which were
ditched and most of them ESQ badly
demolished that the trucks are all
that remain of them, so far as value
is concerned. OF these eleven cars
three were filed with wheat and
one with barley. The remainder
we're either empties, or contained
small consignments of way freight.
No one was hurt.
The accident happened between
/ and II clock. The freight was
due in Delhi at four clock that af-.
ternoon, but shortly after leaving
Watertown that morning the regu-
lar engine was disabled, and it be-
came necessary to send another en-
CINE to its relief. This required
several hours. In the switching
and the making up Of the train that
followed at different stations the
disabled engine was well toward
the center Of the train when it pull
ed out of Belview.
Arriving at the gradeon the town
line the first half Of the train passed
safely over, but the weight of the
dead engine was too much for the
weakened track. The rails COM
menced to spread, and instantly
there was a terrific jerk, lurch,
and then an awful crash, the latter

THE MANSE ASSURED.
PreSbyterianS Seem Sure of a House for
their Preacher.

At the meeting of the congrega-
ton OF the Presbyterian church last
Sunday morning Andrew d. Stew
art, chairman of the soliciting com
mlttee, announced that as the result
OF only few hours canvass the af-
ternoon before, during which time
only p people had been seen, over
IL, oOO had been subscribed towards
the $500 wanted for the erection
OF a Presbyterian manse-a home
for the pastor, and that there were
enough other members of the CON
creation, together with outside as
slstance, who would subscribe, to
warrant the announcement that
the manse would be constructed
this year. A meeting of the con-
gregation will be held next Monday
evening, at the church, when the
committee will make its final report
and definite action taken.
There were many pleasing sub
scriptions. Rev. l.. f. Badger be-
lieved in setting a good example to
the members of his flock and started
the list off with 1850. Then came
Andrew Stewart with $3.50 set op-
posite his name, John and Robert
Stewart 300 each, A. ID. Smith
800, z. A. Pease and r. w. Phil
brick 800 each. Then came a SIS
subscription, several $50 pledges
and number Of $25 names. One or
two who are counted on for reason
ably large amounts have not vet
been seen.
The work has progressed SO fav-
orally that negotiations have been
opened for site, and ID. r. Brigham
has offered lot 3, block 10, Hitch
cock ; first addition, lying between
his residence and that OF wv. N. Car
ter, for the low price Of $500, and
in addition give $50 to the enter
prise. A lot owned by Fred. Il.
Warner, located on Chestnut street.
between the residence Of H. IN. Bell
and that of August Knuepple is al
so being considered, and the manse
will probably be located on one Of
these two sites.

Resolved, by the board Of di.
/ rectors of the Redwood Falls Can.
ming Co., that owing to the failure
OF farmers within the prescribed
territory to guarantee the required
asreage Of corn, the proposition tc
erect canning factory in Redwood
Falls be abandoned for the year
1904.
1T is further recommended that
representative farmers plant a GER
tain acreage Of corn, keeping dates
when planted and when matured,
and report to this board.
The latter paragraph is placed in
the report with the view of finding
out just what different fields of
sweet corn can mature, for a basis
on which to start the factory next
year.
The expression of farmers sub
Scrlolng acreage, but refusing to
sign contract. was that il they
could not deliver the corn would be
worth just as much to them for
fodder for hogs, ETC., and they
would use it that way. The direc-
tors could not see the wisdom of in
vesting $lO,O under such condi-
tions.
The GAZETTE regrets exceedingly
that the enterprise was not pushed
to success this year. Much hard
work was done by individual mem
bers, and much of this work will
have to be done over again if the
is resurrected next
year, and in the meantime it is well
to consider that it is the creamery,
factories like acanning factory, ETC.,
located in our midst which raise
the price of farm lands. Look ahead
a few years toinereased land values,
rather than the present harvest
with its wheat acreage.

CANNING FACTORY NO GO.
Farmers Wouldn't Agree to Deliver the
Sweet Corn Required.

There will be no canning factory
in Redwood Falls during the year
1904. This does not mean that the
canning factory project has been
abandoned; oG the contrary, there
seems to be every assurance of it
being pushed to success next year.
The decision was reached at a
meeting of the board of directors
last Saturday afternoon "a meeting
extended over nearly two hours of
time. Every one of the directors
was in favor of the factory. Enough
money had been subscribed with
assurances that the remainder of
the stock would be taken, to war;
rant the success of the organization,
building and equipping Of the COM
pany and the plant. But farmers
residing in the territory around
the city had not come to the chalk
line sufficiently. This means that
while farmers had agreed to plant
over 300 acres of sweet corn-in
fact, nearly 400 was promised a
portion of them refused to sign con-
tracts to deliver the same at the
factory when the corn was in con-
dition, and this portion was enough
to make the proposition a failure,
or, at least not a success, simply
pay expenses.
The reason assigned was that the
sweet corn might reach the point
for turning over to the factory in
the harvest season, and that no
farmer could afford to leave his
grain in the field to haullsweet corn
to town. To counterfeit this it was
advanced that the proper variety of
corn planted at stated time, and
this time to be stated by the agent
of the proposed company, would
mature later than the harvesting
season, but still it was feared that
harvest might be late and get into
the corn delivery season, and farm
ers refused to sign the contracts.
After an extended discussion of
this one salutary point the follow
ing resolution was adopted:

caused by the cars going. over into
the ditch.
Forty rods of track were torn up
by this accident, in addition to the
loss of and damage to the rolling
stock. The conductor went to Del
hi, aroused the agent, and wired
the train dispatcher an account OF
the accident. The wrecking train
was then in Minneapolis, but it be-
came necessary to get the members
of the crew out of bed, and it was
nearly five o'clock Friday morning
before the train and crew pulled out
of Minneapolis, arriving at the
scene little before nine o'clock.
In the meantime the early morn
ing east bound passenger was held
at Belview. The wrecking engine
brought up coaches. To these the
live freight engine was attached
and the train at Belview was run
down to the wreck, the passengers
and baggage transferred, and at 10
o'clock, five hours late, the train
proceeded to it's destination. The
day passenger trains, east and west
bound, were obliged to make siml-
lar transfers at the wreck, while
the night train Friday was aban-
doned.
The wreckiug crew worked con-
tinuously until four o'clock Satur-
day afternoon, when the track was
cleared and placed in condition
for traffic, east and west-bound
passenger trains being held there
that day until the track was com
pleted.
Some of the ties we're torn into
splinters, while rails were badly
twisted, by the accident, which cost
the railroad company several thous-
ands of dollars.
The wet spring of this year, fol- !
lowing an exceptionally cold win
ter, and accompanied by the heavy
rains, will be hard one on the
railroad companies.
