If you continue to suffer with the ill

From now on until the polls close on
November 9Th there should be no re-
taxation of the efforts to bring out the
voters. The local ticket does not need
it; the legislative ticket does not need
it; but the state ticket does need it and
the effect of an off year and light
vote is very dangerous. Every stay-at-
home republican casts half vote for
Governor Johnson's reelection. If
you want to secure the regulation and
revision of railroad rates, if you want
to secure a two cent passenger fare on
the railroads of Minnesota, go to the
polls and cast your ballot for Hon. A,
T.. Cole for Governor.

The conviction of the Standard Oil
company by an Ohio jury for conspir
acy against trade in violation of the
anti trust law of Ohio is great
triumph for good government. 1t is
gratifying to all who believe that the
laws should operate equally upon the
most powerful.corporation as well as
upon the humblest individual in the
state. 1t is a vindication of that prin'
ciple, once so we'll announced by presi.
dent Roosevelt, that no man is so high
as to be above the law, and no man SO
low as to be beneath its protection.

DEATH OF M. WEIGH.
Veteran Omnibus Driver Transported in
to the Great Beyond.

Marcellus WEIGH, whose serious
illness was announced in the last
issue of this paper, passed away at
4 o'clock last Wednesday afternoon,
in his rooms in the Vaughn block,
as a result of Bright's disease of the
kidneys, accompanied by gangrene
troubles. Mr.. Welch's illness was
not one of heavy suffering and his
closing moments were peaceful. A
slight jerk of the arms and all was
over.
The funeral occurred from the
Methodist church at O'Clock Thurs
day afternoon, Rev. DR.. H. V.
Givler officiating. Many old friends,
and all the distant relatives in this
city, were present. The interment
occurred in the Redwood cemetery
Several days before the end came
Mr.. WEIGH was informed by his
physicians that death was but a
little way off. While he doubted
their statement he took the informa-
ton calmly, and calling in an attor-
ney signed a bill of sale giving all
of his property to Miss Anna French,
a young lady with whom the de-
ceased had been keeping company
for some time past.
Marcellus Welch was born in
Brothertown, Wisconsin, about 48
years ago, where he spent the first
years of his life. In 1879, with the
construction of the Minnesota Valley
railroad into this city he came to
Redwood Falls, and this has been
his home ever since. Here he made
his friends, many of whom have
chung to him thru his life, and here
he worked industriously for the
money which he had carefully laid
aside for his future life. He first
worked for W. E. Baker, then cared
for horse owned by Geo. Brown,
and afterwards engaged in the driv-
ing of an omnibus, and patrons of
the Stout, Hessian and Lamberton
lines, succeeding one another, will
remember this trusty driver making

worst condition, that "Sal' WEIGH
was the driver. From Is to 18 years
OF his life found him in that occupa-
ton. and while he dropped out a
couple of years ago and took up
other employment, the call of the
old profession came back to him and
three months ago he returned to
the employ of Chas. E. Lamberton,
and made his assigned trips up to
the Tuesday morning that he was
obliged to report himself out as ILL.,.
No parent hand was present to
wipe the death dew from his brow,
for his father and mother had long
gone before him. His nearest rela-
tlves were cousins, but his old
friends had gathered around and
watched over him, and with the
relatives, gave the patient every
attention in his last hours. His
honest, pleasant and genial coun-
tenance will be missed in Redwood
Falls.

SHAREHOLDERS SMILE
Farmers Elevator Co. Stockholders Hear
of Dividends at the Annual
Meeting.
Agent Patton Makes Good on His State
ment of Last Year to Show
Pleasing Gain this Year.

The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Farmers Elevator Co.
of Redwood Falls was held at the
court house at 2 o'clock last Satur-
day afternoon. The meeting was in
marked contrast with that held a
year ago. Then the stockholders,
part of whom were patronizing
other elevators in order to get the
advanced price for their wheat and
other grain, were facing net loss
of over $500. This year, as the re-
suit of a years non-competition be-
tween the elevators on the North
western track the stockholders were
told that there was a net gain of
81, 257 .93, and that there would be a
good sized dividend on their invest
ment.
1t will be remembered that for
the year closing June 18th, 1905,
the line elevators were continually
boosting the price at Redwood Falls
from two to three cents per bushel
on the wheat offered for market.
This gave large amount Of wheat
hauled by stockholders of the Farm
ers' to the line elevators, the stock
holders hauling claiming that they
were willing to help make up the
deficit in the Farmers as long as
they could get the advanced price of
the line elevators. The net loss in
the Farmers was then apparent.
After the 1905 meeting the line
elevators came off their high priced
horse and when the season opened
in August they brought the price
down to the scheduled rates for this
