John F. Mccarthy.

The sinking of artesian wells has in
recent years become a matter of vast
Importance throughout the country.
Railroads, municipalities, business
blocks and public buildings all see the
need of an abundance of water and of
the best duality obtainable. There are
but few men engaged in the artesian
well business that have made a sue
cess of it. OF these, however, Mime
apolis has one in J. f. Mccarthy,
whose offices and warerooms are To-
Gated at 1875 Fifth avenue S, on the
edge of the milling district. During
the past twenty years he has drilled
hundreds of these wells throughout the
Western States, his business extending
as far as Spokane, Wash, and many
cities, villages and towns have thereby
been abundantly supplied with water
for all purposes. At Waseca. in this

The Only Way to Check It.

The Florence Times expresses
our sentiments on liquor drinking
when it says: "The best and only
way to make people keep sober and
check drinking is to rule drinking
out of good company. Make it
unpopular and discreditable to be
seen drunk anywhere. Just as
long rs it is popular to order it
from Georgia, North Carolina and
Virginia, or buy it from the "blind
tigers" that are abroad over the
land, there will be little growth o
abstinence sentiment" No, you
may close every dispensary in the
State and just as long as the Elk
press continues to bring jugs We
need not hope to check drinking
