LIBRARY NOTES.

Very frequently the librarian is
asked the question Have you a
catalog of the books?" Most as
suredly we have 1t is not, however,
the printed catalog which in the
majority of cases the borrower
means. In its place we have a
catalog on cards, to be used at the
library by all who wish to consult it.
The cards are arranged alpha
betically, similar to dictionary and
should be used in the same way,
only instead Of turning leaves and
running the eye down a printed
page, cards are turned until you
come to the card you wish. 1t serves
two-fold purpose:
l. To show what the library has;
ca by a given author; (b) by a
given title; (c) on a given subject.
2. To show where the books may
be found on the shelves by the call
numbers on the left side of the card.
There is an entry under author for
every book in the library whose
author is known, with cross refer
ences from pseudonyms. A second
entry is made under the title of
every book and a third entry under
the subject. By means Of the sub
ject entry the resources of the IL
brary are made more available, for
books are analysed and often the
chapters noted.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1906-02-28

and also as an orator on the floor
of that body. The North American
Review, in writing up the fight
against the traction interests which
were lording it over the city of
Chicago, gives Mr.. Stewart credit
as being the one man who, at the
critical moment, made the move
that brought the legislature up
standing and compelled it to give the
home rule traction bill fair hear
ing. Mr.. Stewards speech nominat-
ing G. Woolley for the United States
senate was conceded by the big Chi
cago dailies to have been the great
est oratorical effort of the entire
session. The St. Louis Republic,
speaking of that event, said Mr..
Stewart electrified the House in
burst of eloquence that disturbed
the equilibrium of that body"
On the platform Mr.. Stewart is
pleasing, earnest, kindly advocate of
his cause; he wins his way; his
speeches are entirely free from ex-
travagances of expression or I'M
kindness of spirit.

INTERESTING SESSION.
Bankers of RedwoOd County Meet, Eat
and Discuss Banking Subjects.

Wednesday evening Of last week
the bankers of Redwood county en-
joyed the hospitality and good fell
lowship of the local banks, their
officers and directors. About IS
from out of town accepted the in
vitation to be here, among them
being F. O. Gold and A. A. Bennett
of Renville. Every bank in this
county was represented by one or
more of its officers, excepting the
Bank of Belview and one of the
Walnut Grove banks.
The meeting was held in the K.
P. hall Immediately after lun-
cheon, served in the dining room of
the hall and presided over by the
wives and daughters of the officers
and directors of the local banks, the
guests were uShered into the main
hall, where, after few minutes
spent in conversation and getting
acquainted, they were called to or
der by W. H. Gold, and in few
Introductory remarks he gave a
brief sketch of the banking career
of the Hon. H. D. Baldwin, who
then delivered the address Of well
come.
Mr.. Baldwin said his idea of an
address Of welcome was something
like this, Hello, glad to see you"
but for the sake Of established
precedents he would add a few
words. He remarked particularly
upon the different relations existing
between the banker and farmer Of
to-day and those Of a few years
back, and was evidently we'll pleased
at the change.
A. D. Stewart, who spoke on 'The
Bankers from a Farmers Stand
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1906-02-28

point" followed Judge Baldwin S
talk and the audience was treated
to an oratorical display that was
rather dazzling at first, but after
carefully turning back the husks Of
oratory could be found the large
and we'll developed ears of facts and
good thoughts which are always
yielded on Farmer Stewards field of
speech-making He jollied the bank
ers by telling them they were good
looking and then compromised his
compliment by insinuating that in
spite of their good looks they might
bear watching. Although he ad-
mitted that he was about third
banker, he said he wouldn't like to
be a real banker, and this left his
hearers wondering of course just
what Andrew would like to be.
Music by Tibbetts' orchestra was
dispensed at intervals, and was
greatly enjoyed.
In introducing the Hon. c.. T.
Howard, Mr.. Baldwin took time to
hand a prettily worded bouquet to
Till Tibbetts and his old fiddle, which
was as sincere and well deserved as
it was heartily received. Mr.. How
ards subject was Redwood county
politics, without any politics.
In opening, the speaker said that
he had been assigned the wrong
subject. That he knew little more
of nearly every thing than he did
of Redwood county politics; that he
didn't enjoy the prospect Of speak
ing to bankers-in fact, had always
been afraid to speak above whisper
to them, but his fears were for
gotten and his audience listened to
a speech that is rarely equalled
from the after-dinner platform
speech that scintillated with bril-
liant flashes of wit and was jeweled
with precious truths and oratorical
finish.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1906-02-28

But, it is urged, printed catalog
IS more convenient, more quickly
used and can be used anywhere. All
that is true but it is, even in it's
simplest form, expensive and is out
of date soon after if not as soon as
printed, for the library is adding
new books continually.
The new books are always noted
in the paper and lists given. 1t is
suggested that these lists be clipped
and each borrower make his own
catalog Of additions, if he does not
care to use the card catalog. The
librarian is ever willing and ready
to assist those who are DESTROYS of
learning it's use.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1906-02-28

After the close of Mr.. Towards
talk followed general discussion of
subjects dear to the bankers heart,
such as exchange charges, interest
on C. DIS, collections, etc., and the
meeting adjourned at a late hour.
The following day the visitors
were given an opportunity to in
spect the public library, high school
building, etc.
From the standpoint of attend
ance and a good time the meeting
was surely very successful and will
doubtless be followed by others of
like nature.

DEATH OF THOS. A. MARCH.

Thos. A. March, for many years a
resident of Redwood Falls, where
he followed his vocation of boot and
shoe repairing, passed away at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Cliff R.
Tanner, in Chicago, last Friday af-
ternoon. Kidney trouble, from which
he has long been suffering, was the
cause of death.
The remains were brought to
Redwood Falls Monday and placed
alongside those of his late wife, in
the Redwood cemetery.
Mr.. March was about u years
old. He was born in Quebec province,
Canada, where he lived about Is
years, removing from there to New
York, and coming to Minnesota in
the early '70s. He came to Red
wood Falls in the early sos. and
lived here until about 10 years ago.
when he sold his shoe repairing bust
ness and joined his daughter and
her husband in Chicago. When he
left here he was in ill-health, and
he continued in that condition up
to the time of his death.
Mr.. March was a member of the
A. 0. U. w. lodge of this place and
the members escorted his body to
the cemetery for burial. Relatives
present were Mr.. Tanner of Chicago
and Mrs. w. G. March and Charles
March of Minneapolis, in addition to
those residing in and around Red
wood Falls. Mrs. Tanner was un-
able to attend owing to her recently
having been made a mother. Mr..
March carried $1,000 insurance
policy in the A. O. u. w.
The visit of Charles March to this
place was the first in Is years.
Here was where his childhood DAYS
were spent and all of Monday morn
ing, with one of his boy friends, he
went over the old grounds in and
around the city, and gave expires
sion to the deepest love for those
days, his old friends, and the haunts
they frequented together.

BENDIXFN IS ENDORSED
Nearly 100 Voters at the WabassO Con-
vention Ratify the Stewart
Program.
Resolutions Passed Endorsing President
Roosevelt and Going After
Corporations.

About 100 people assembled at
Wabasso yesterday morning, pur-
suant to the published call, and
authorized the following committee
to unite on a plan for organizing
the convention: A. D. Stewart, Clark
Miller, J. P. Cooper, Eric Wilson,
A. P. Henderson, N. w. Cobleigh
and Frank Davidson.
The committee got together and
decided to ask Eric Wilson to call
the meeting to order and to present
the names of Andrew Stewart for
chairman and C. H. Fredericksen
for secretary. The committee recon-
mended that after completing the
above organization, adjournment
should be taken until after dinner.
The organization as above out
lined was put into effect at about
11:30, Chairman Stewart taking oc-
casion to make an interesting little
speech before taking up his duties.
He thanked the convention grace
fully for honoring him, incidentally
reminding the audience that he was
no stranger to most Of them, his
official duties and long residence in
the county having made him per-
sonally acquainted with about so
per cent. Of its citizens. Mr.. Stew
art justified his reputation for plain
speaking by taking a shy at the
county printing combine, as he
designated the county publishers as
ISOLATION, with a particular upper
cut at some alleged misrepresenta-
tons in the Seaforth Item.
At 1:30 the convention reassem-
bled, and very soon after the chair
man had sisnified that the meeting
was ready for business, Hon. j. A.
Larson presented a series of reso-
lutlons endorsing the action of Presi-
deaf Roosevelt in endeavoring to
secure railroad rate legislation,
proper Philippine tariff law, and
urging the pushing Of the construc-
ton of the Panama canal. The
resolutions also endorse Senator Mel
sons candidacy for reelection and
approve of the action of Minnesota's
representatives in unfolding the
policy of the president. Other re-
Communications urge a reduction of
railroad rates to the Iowa standard,
tWo-cent passenger fares, and the
enactment Of a law similar to the
Nolan reciprocal demurrage bill,
killed IN the state senate at its last
session Other recommendations
were for protection from private
car companies and demanded that
express, telegraph and telephone
companies be declared common car
riers.
The resolutions were adopted.
Proceeding to the main business
of nominating a candidate to be
placed on the ticket at the primaries
for representative, Holmer Johnson
Of Three Lakes placed in nomination
the name of E. M. Bendixsen of
Three Lakes. No other names were
presented, though a small group
from another corner Of the county
threw out a feeler with view of
substituting another we'll known
farmer.
