The Mormon church is stronger to-

If it were not, President Joseph

state openly that he was practicing
polygamy in defiance of state and ma.

No church in the world is growing

bought, and over them all the church
reigns supreme.

TIPPED FROM GOOD THUNDER
An Old Settler Passes Away--Items Of
General Interest

Last Monday another old settler pass
ed away, Mr.. A. Rosin, who lived about
two and half miles south of Good
Thunder. Although Mr.. Rosin has been
ill long while, and death has seemed
very near, his actual passing away
brought with it the terrible shock that
none can escape. The remains will
be given burial from the Lutheran
church. One by one, the old settlers are
leaving. They are the ones who have
endured danger, sickness and hardship,
such as the present generation will prob
ably never know. A large number have
gone in but short time, making a
great, great change indeed.
Rain has roughed up the roads again,
just as the people felt that they were
going to enjoy smooth ones.
Threshing is a thing of the past
just now, but potato digging is pill"
around here. There are so many pota-
toes and fields of them are half and
some two-thirds rotten. 1t is not very
enviable job to dig potatoes this year.
1t is too bad that so many big pota
toes must be left in the field too dis
eased with rot to be of any use.

A telegram on Monday afternoon last

their son George, which occurred at Hon

UNDER GROUND CROSSING.
Farmers Want One Under Chicago &
Northwestern Track.
From Thursdays Daily.


The farmers living in the vicinity of
the crossing of the Chicago & North
western track over the ST. Peter road
are agitating the construction of an un-
derground crossing at the point where a
young lady was recently run down.
They recognize it as being very dan
gerous place, and would assist in hav-
ing an underground crossing constructed.
AS there is quite rise on both sides
to reach the track, the crossing could be
easily constructed, and it would make
the driveway practically level. 1t has
been estimated that the crossing can
be constructed for $4,000 or less. If
one person was killed on the crossing it
might cost the railway company $1,000.
In the east all such crossings are avoid
ed by either going overhead of or un-
derneath the track
AS the st. Peter road is 80 we'll travel
ed, this is matter that should receive
the attention of the railway authori-
ties.
