". A. Morse Announces his Candidacy for
the Legislature.

For over year prominent demo.
Gratis of this county have been trying
to get Mr.. William A. Morse of Sank
Centre, to run for Representative of
his district, but be bas declined and
told them to try and find better man.
But now he has consented to file as a
candidate for the nomination, for that
Office by the Democratic party from
the west end of the county.
Mr.. Morse was born at Rutland,
Vermont, Nov. 2, 1850; moved to
Steele Co., Mimi, with his parents in
May 1856 and was brought up on a
farm, received common school
education, then graduated from the
state normal school at Mankato and
then taught school for a time; after
wards took four years college course
iChautauqua) and studied law and
practiced about ten years after he was
admitted to the Bar, in South Dakota.
He moved to Minneapolis in 1899 and
came to Sank Centre in 1900 and was
with his brother in real estate business
for about two years, since which he
has been in the real estate and in
surance business alone and looking
after his farms around Sank Centre.
Mr.. Morse cast his first vote for
Horace Greedy in 1872 and has always
been an Independent or a democrat.
He has never been an office-seeker,
though he has always been active in
politics and owned and published an
Independent newspaper, for some
time, in South Dakota. He has been
fairly successful in business but
always preferred farming and has
always bought all the farm lands
that he could handle. He is typical
Minnesota man and has strong faith
in the future of our noble state. He
is natural reformer, though never
rabid. He is genial, liberal, we'll
posted, speaks and reads the German
language nearly as we'll as English,
a good Judge Of law and has had a
good deal of experience in drafting,
revising and correcting laws and his
interests are always with the common
people. He ought to make an ideal
legislator.

CELEBRATION A HUMMER.
TIVE Great Days in the City by the Sank.
The YeOmen Picnic a Disappointment
In Attendance but It More
Than Made up In
Quality
The Glorious Fourth Breaks all Records.

The Reporter is wearing a bushel
basket for hat this morning and
consequently only the most meager
outline of the interesting events is
presented.
After weeks of dripping clouds and
leaden skies the weather man relented
and by special arrangement of the
Herald ON the 3rd and 18th the
weather was such as is only furnished
in Minnesota.
There was some disappointment
expressed on account Of the meager
attendance of the Yeomen, the Min
neapolis Homestead being the only
one appearing in uniform. The
Morris Military band arrived on the
N. P. train. They resembled Joshua
Hayseed's aggregation when they left
the cars and marched up the streets,
but after they had donned their natty
white uniforms they presented quite
q different appearance, and they
furnished most excellent music dur
ing their two days. sojourn here.
The exercises commenced at the
park at 1890 a. m. Mayor Webb
introduced Grand Foreman Koch,
who made a brief but eloquent ad-
dress explaining the principles of
the order. DR.. Dubois surprised his
friends by making one OF the best
speeches ever heard in the city. J..
H. Murphy Of Oatawna, F. A. john
son OF Wisconsin, and T. ]. Crosse
OF Minneapolis, also talked most
entertainingly. In the afternoon the
archery contest, the races and the
competitive drill took place. The
summary of the races is given below
Dancing at the bowery, A. o. U. w.
hall and an entertainment at the
Grand Opera House by the Damon
Colored Students filled in the after;
noon and evening.
The Fourth was ushered in by the
usual racket and record breaking
crowd soon filled the town.
Hon. Charles Lindbergh of Little
Falls, delivered the Grafton. 1t was a
mastery effort and was listened to
with the closest attention by the
large crowd in attendance. The
speaker was introduced by DR.. ].
A. Dubois in his usual pleasing
style. The afternoon was given over
to races and sports.
The horse owners from the cities
expressed in highest terms their
appreciation of the racing facilities
and track furnished them by the Fair
association. 1t is not generally known
that this city has the finest half-mile
track in the state and the half-mile
record for the state has been twice
broken on the same. The races
furnished the sport loving public by
the Stearns County Fair association is
unequalled in the state outside of the
cities. As this fact becomes more
widely known among horsemen the
speediest flyers in the state will show
up here in the future.
The city authorities are entitled to
much credit for the rigid suppression
of gambling in every form and for
the first time in many years the streets
and fair grounds were absolutely free
from skin-games OF any description.
The celebration taken as a whole
was one OF the most successful ever
pulled of in this city,
The following is a summary OF the
two days races.

A TRIBUTE.
Thomas Waitcs Lan5rsth.

From time immemorial il has
been customary to say kind
things OF the dead, and TO spread
over their faults The broad man
tie of charity. But i is nos al
ways easy to speak well Of the
departed for all men Go not 50
order their lives as to make this
= pleasant task. Not so OF Wal
ter L2ndreth. No one could be
true concerning this really ster-
ling character and say aught
but good things of him. He was
BORN in Benton county, Miss,
Nov. 18th, 1874 and was born
agsin in 1895 during which year
he united with the Baptist church.
He was united in marriage Oct.
9th, 1897 to Miss Odilla, daugh-
ter of DR.. Wallace of Burgess.

Sabbath morning March 18th,
the summons came to enter that
..rest that renaineth for the peo-

life was closed.
Walter Landreth was the only
merchant ever known to the wri-
ter OF whom no unkind thing was
ever said. He mad his faults We
may be sure, but strange to say
no one ever pointed them OUT.
That he was not perfect this wri-
ter knows full well and yet he
could not name any particular
wrong and say that Walter Lam
dreth was guilty OF that. No
business man eau ever be more
sadly missed by the poor, both
white and black, than he. Per.
haps he had enemies, bat If he
, did, nobody knew about il. I
any person thought i'll of him !

before his death the writer VS.:
speaking with a young man whC
: had known Walter from boy
hood and had had abundant op'
portunity to know him, and b,
asserted that he had never hear,
