The social was held by the Wilmerding

ape measure. Refreshments were fur
lished free. "
The social was great success
among the younger people, but elder
members of the Wesleyan community
are raising hue and cry. They de-.
clare that it has made their church
ridiculous, that it. savors of flippancy
and that the size of ones waist has
nothing to do with the size of ones
soul. A church trial for those who
originated the social is threatened b.
some of the more radical of the con
sentative church members.
Nothing else has been talked of since
The social. All the fat girls, it is al.
legged, pulled their corset strings 4
rifle tighter to save money, and Tiers
are charges that number of thin ones

leaving home. The young man who
handled the tape is accused of unnec-

We were standing and struck me a

Congressman lSteernson scored
a big victory when the committee
on public lands of the house of re-
representatives. decided to report bills
favorable for federal drainage OF
ceded Indian lands in Minnesota,
ten counties in North Dakota, and
the big dismal swamp of Virginia
and North Carolina. BY a majority
vote the committee instructed Mr..
Steenerson to report the Minnesota
bill. The fact that it has been pos
sible to get such an important
measure out of committee in one
session, in spite of opposition,
shows good, intelligent work on
the part of Mr.. Steenersen and the
other members of the Minnesota
delegation.

The Red River Valley got nothing
at the hands of the Republican state
convention, and for the very reason
that the delegates were divided on
every proposition looking to the
preferment of valley man. We
could have had either the governor

unity OF action. Norman county,
(which has always had a fair share
of official consideration, displayed a
very narrow spirit. 1t behooves
