REDWOOD COUNTY
OFFICIAL 19.O34
Revised and Complete Census Returns
Increase Population of the
County.
Revision In Kintire, SwedeS Forest and
BelvieW and Adding of Glenn
entS Makes Increase.

The correct population of Red
wood county as given out by the
state census department., engaged
in taking the census for 1905, is
1904. or 1893 more than was re-
ported by the state census bureau
in an unofficial report made in July.
The cause of the increase was the
Remuneration of Belview, Kintire
and Swedes Forest precincts, and
the addition of Clements village,
which was accidentally omitted
from the earlier report. The CEN
sus by precincts, now given official
ly for the first time, is as follows:

Lyon county has a popula-
ton of Is, III, Brown county 20, 523,
Cotton wood IL, SIS, Renville 24,O32

smallest.

Excerpts Taken From St. Paul Papers
of 1865

| dredS OF men. This has been
the cause, to general extent
of the great increase of crime
in all the large cities of the
country. Brutal murders, rob.
beries,a assaults of every degree
as we'll as lesser crimes, have
become alarmingly prevalent
St. Paul has been having its
share recently. A gang Of
burglars seems to have made
our city it's headquarters and
citizens would do well to keep
a close watch on their houses
On Thursday night Louis Ro-
berts' residence, Ninth and
Robert streets, was entered
Mrs. Roberts was alone, but
bravely threatened to shoot the
burglars if they did not leave.
They departed at once. On
Friday night Mrs. Roberts got
gentleman friend to sleep in
the house while she remained
at the home of a neighbor.
The burglars again made their
appearance, and were fired at
by the gentleman inside. They
made tracks, double-quick, and
will probably give that house
up for bad job. c. G. Kings
house, Seventh and Robert,
was also entered Friday night.
Those scamps are busy fellows
as scarcely a night passes with
out some house being looted.
Horace Greeley will be pres
ent at the Minnesota state fair
this year, and deliver an ad-
dress. The fair will be held at
Minneapolis during the last
week of September, the
grounds used being those pur-
chased and laid out for the
county fair. A dining hall
capable of accommodating two
thousand people is being
erected.
The bridge for the M:nneso-
ia Central railway across the
river at Fort Smelling will be
finished about Sept. 1st.
Gen. Sanborn, who is in pur-
suit of the hostile Indians,
writes from Fort Larned, Ark:
Il have enjoyed this campaign
very much, as everything is
new and strange. Buffalo
range over this country in i'm
mense herds, and seem to COW
er the entire country, and give
it the appearance of common
pasture we'll grazed down.
The stampede or race Of herds
numbering from 10000 to TO-
600 is really very sublime
and grand spectacle. Large,
strong bulls lead the herds,
who make the air resound and
tremble with their believing
as the earth does from the run
ming of the herds. They are
easily killed and their meat is
very fine. l very much prefer
it to beef. The country here
is one immense plain, over
which rivers of immense
breadth and length roll, except
in dry seasons when all of
them are nearly all dried up.

Arkansas in few days and

dams north of that point"
A party of several hundred
men will leave ST. Peter on
Sept. 18th for a grand buffalo
hunt near the new village Of
Redwood Falls, where there
are immense herds of these
noble animals.

A large number of profess
sional gamblers and blacklegs
have made their appearance in
the city. They will doubtless
make a speciality of fleeing

Capt. Harvey Officer has de-
clined the copperhead nomi-

John Jay Knox, an old resi-
dent of St. Paul, but now of
the treasury department at
Washington, is in the city on
official business and renewing
old acquaintance.
The volunteer fremen of the
city are preparing grand ban
quet for their fellow firemen
who have recently returned
from the war. 1t is proposed
to use the lower story of the
Pioneer Hook & Ladder house
for the banquet hall.
Nearly every large town, in
the state is taking steps for the
erection of a monument to the
soldiers from that locality, who
fell during the war. St. Paul,
which has a list of at least fifty
noble martyrs, ought not to
neglect such a work-one due
to her fallen citizens and to
their relatives, as well as to
the survivors of the war. 1t
will be fitting memorial of
those brave citizens whose
presence we no longer have,
continually reminding US of
their noble heroism.
Hon. Edmund Rice has made
arrangements in England for
the early construction of the
St. Paul & Winona branch of

The last of the wagons and

Four of the principal Indian
tribes have made overtures to
Gen. Sanborn for peace, but
Gen. Sanborn, we judge, will
treat with Indians somewhat
the same as he treats with reb-

force is estimated at about 90
600 warriors, and, so far as they
really are DESTROYS for peace
