A Severe ArraiQnment.

The Chippewa County Progress,
published at Maynard, airs its opinion
of "bucket shops" in the following
emphatic manner:
Another bucket shop ia to be started
in Maynard, that OF Edwards Wood
& Co. Is it not within the power of
the village council to prohibit this
class of business in our village? I'm
mediate action by the council might
possibly save some ones son or q
poor father from bling heeced from
his last dollar, and the deliverance
of his little flock from hunger and
want. It is reasonable to believe that
if gambling houses and the sale of in
toxic eating liquors come under. the
jurisdiction OF a village council, the
bucket shop and other skin games
could be reached by that body. The
o. ening of the second bucket shop
at this place demonstrates that fact
beyond doubt that these human
parasites have "struck" a lucrative
field in which to operate, and this
gambling will 60 on as it did In Monte
video, Clark6eld, Wood Like and
other towns, until the public learns
their business as q skin game. The
Progress warns all that neither Ed
wards Wood & Co. nor the Coo Com
mission Co. have opened business at
this place for the welfare of the pub-
lie. A Mr.. Lanues, OF this county,
we understand, has lost heavily thru
the operation of these skin games.
While there are thousands of in
stances of this kind on record, let this
mans exp 'rtence be warning.

THE CONTRACT LET.


Besides the Lake Lillian railroad,
and the Cosmos railroad, there are
rumors of another railroad which
will effect territory not very far dis
tant. It is said that the contract has
been let for the construction of the
first fifty miles Of the road which will
run from Albert Lea to St. Cloud, and
work will begin upon the same just as
soon as the weather will permit. The
following is clipped from the St
Cloud Jourcal Press: "The Duluth,
ST.. Cloud, Glencoe & Mankato rail-
way directors have closed a contract
with E. L. Tobie & Co. to build line
from Mankato to Albert Lea, 52} miles.
Capt. A. II. Reed OF Glencoe, president
of the road, has deposited $1,000 as
part of the faith money required by
the contract, which is $l2,5OO in all
It is expected that work will be begun
in the spring. Capt. Reed is quoted
as saying that J. J. Hill has offered
to allow the new company entrance to
Twin Cities for 3 per cent OF the cost
of construction from Lester Prairie. I"

"You have firm friend in me, and 1 not only advise its use to my friends, but have purchased several bottles to give to those without the means to buy, and have noticed with out exception that it has brought about speedy cure wherever it has been used. "-Rose Gerbing.
 Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
 One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquiring drug habit. Pe- runa does not produce temporary re- suits. It is permanent in its effect.
 It has no bad effect upon the sys- tenn, and gradually eliminates catarrh. There are a multitude of homes where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty years. Such a thing could not be possible if Peruna contained any drugs of narcotic nature.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there Is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure Is the only positive cure known to lhe medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca- tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and. mucous surfaces of the system, thereby dc. stroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and as. sisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that 1t fails to cure. Send for list of testi- monials.

 "Recently I took long drive in the country, and being too thinly clad caught bad cold which settled on my lungs, and which 1 could not seem to shake off. l had heard a great deal of Peruna for colds and catarrh and I bought bottle to try.
