selves and bring enormous expenses upon
the county if they would live under the pro-
lection of the law.
The party in power now seems to be hon
estly taking steps to make party action
upon the prohibition of the liquor traffic
square with party professions and the Ii
quor interests should not be permitted
to quietly sneak through the legislature any
more of their schemes to protect their out
lawed traffic, and certainly not this one
that would SO greatly increase the difficult
ties of enforcing the law and the burdens of
the county.

Representative Kinsman of Augusta in
troduced resolve March End that the State
accept the offer made by the United States of
America of the Marine Hospital property
known as Widows Island with the build
ings thereon and that it be utilized as a
summer home for such of the patients of
the Maine Insane Hospital and Eastern
Maine Hospital as would be in the judg-
ment of the Superintendent of the two in
stitutions benefited thereby and that an ap-
preparation of $1,000 be made to furnish the
buildings, same to be expended under di-
rection of the board of trustees of insane
hospitals. The National government some
years ago bought Widows Island, near
North Haven. On this island they built a
substantial brick hospital building, fitted
up in every way for hospital purposes, but
for some reason it was never occupied. The
United States has made tender of same
without expense to the State, provided it
can be utilized for charitable purposes.
The property is now in the possession of
the State.

FREE DELIVERY FOR SLEEPY EYE
Postoffice Department to Place Carriers in Mayor
Olsen's City.

Sleepy Eye will have a city mail
delivery system in operation within a
few weeks, says the Sleepy Eye Dis
patch. The city council on Tuesday
evening ordered the street signs put up
and the houses numbered, and as soon
as this is done the postofice depart
ment will deliver the mail for the BUSH
ness houses and residences of the city.
The council has had the matter I'M
der. consideration for some time, and
at the last meeting Alderman Black
presented a resolution that the streets
be designated by proper signs and
that the houses be numbered.
L. @. Hansen was awarded the con-
tract of putting up the signs and of
numbering the houses. The city pays
for the street signs and the property
owners will pay for their numbers.
The work will be done under the
direction of the street committee. Mr..
Hanson has already started work on
the contract, which is to be finished in
thirty days.
Postofice Inspector Morris of ST.
Paul, has advised Postmaster Buelow
that he will have the city delivery
system put in just as soon as the city is
ready for it. There will be two carriers,
but just how the city will be divided
between them has not yet been decided.
Postmaster Buelow has investigated
the systems of handling the business
in the neighboring cities and will be
able to place everything in proper
working order around the local post
Office in very short time.

Depar tment, graduate of Columbia Col
lege, and who served three years at West
Point, has the following to say of Peruna:

from your wonderful remedy.
One short month has brought
forth q vast change and / now
consider myself & well man after
months of suffering. Fellow suf-
ferers, Peruna will cure You. /"
A constantly increasing number of
physicians prescribe Peruna in their
practice. It has proven its merits so
thoroughly that even the doctors have
overcome their.prejudiee against so call
ed patent medicines and recommend it
to their patients.
Peruna occupies unique position in
medical science. 1t is the only internal
systemic catarrh remedy known to the
medical profession to-day. Catarrh, as
everyone will admit, is the cause of one
half the disease which aff1icts mankind.
Catarrh and catarrhal diseases affiict
one-half of the people of United States.

Yes, we saw a man come out of the

WITNESS ON TIME.

When the witness was handed over
to Mr.. Somerville he started in to
prove that the young man was not sure
he had seen Koch come back immedi-
ately after he saw him in front of the
hardware store.
He asked him how he happened to
be standing in front of the drug store
for SO long time.
[ was just looking around, the boy
answered.
You first saw the defendant at about
sos?
Yes sir.
Why did you watch him?
The witness hesitated and could not
answer and then said family, Because
[ wanted to see if he went to the
postofice.
Now Alfred, said Mr.. Sommerville,
kindly, just tell the truth; that is much
the better way. you have beentelling
the story the detectives told you to
say, just tell the truth.
Now, are you sure that it was not 8
or ten minutes after you spoke to DR..
Koch the first time that you saw him
the second time?
No sir. 1t might have been that
long, said the boy.

Wednesday, Jsnaary il, 1905.

Frank Eddy has bought out his com
petitor at Sank Centre and now has
the only paper published in city OF
5000. Mr.. Eddy is getting out a good
paper but even he cannot satisfy all
and there is sure to be an opposition
paper in so good field.
John A. Johnson created a surprise
by recommending a four-year term for
governor beginning with 1906 and maxi
ing himself ineligible to reelection.
The four-year term is all right but we
think John A. johnson was too modest
when he barred himself against the
chance of reelection.
Frank Clague of Redwood County
enters upon his duties as speaker of

ner, and the sentiment seems to be
gaining that he will not be bad timber

young man but he has brains with his
youth and he is using his brains to
good advantage.
