What to Do

What to Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge SO
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism. pain in the
back kidneys. liver, bladder and every part
OF the urinary passage. 1t corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use OF liquor,
wine or beer, and oYercomes that unpleasant
necessity OF being compelled TO go often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect Of Swamp-RoOt Is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its Won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.

TAXES TO BE HIGH
Rate viii Be SO Mills Next Year, in
Mankato.

From Mondays Daily.
When the tax payers call on the colu-
ty treasurer to settle their accounts next
year they will think that the various
governing bodies have been ''going some.
The rate tax will be SO mills, as com
pared with 3O.3 mills last year and
about p mills the year before. The city
tax levy is $4,000 as compared with
$4,000 last year the city school district
levy is about $4,000 as compared with
s22,095 last year; the county has levied
exactly the same tax as last year; while
the state has levied 2.7S mills, or a
quarter of a mill less than last year.
Tax payers will find their taxes TWEEN
ty-fiye per cent higher next year than
this. This will not be all due to the
increased amounts levied in the city, but
also to the fact that the assessed valu-
alton is less in the city than it was
last year. This is the one ray of hope
in the whole matter.

SEVERE HAIL STORM.
Ceresco Town Was Given a jolt One
Day Last Week.

FROM FRIDAY DAILY.
Mrs. +. H. Griffin, wife of the editor
of The Good Thunder Herald, took a
trip into Ceresco last week, and gath
cred large number of interesting
stories of what was going on in that
town. Among other things the lady
wrote as follows:
A week ago Tuesday this section was
visited by a severe hail storm. The
storm occurred about five o'clock and
came with great force, breaking four
teen window lights out of the Cooling
school house; frightening horses and cat
tie so that many horses ran away. Some
were badly cut by the hail. One man
reports two cows which have been COM
pletely bewildered and crazy-like since
the storm. A large cottonwood tree
at George Coo1ing's was twisted and
broken off, falling on the woodshed SC
as to crush one corner. Had the tree
be en- further from the house it would
have undoubtedly broken the whole root
in. Corn in many places was husked
leaving it entirely exposed. This is the
only place we have learned that any
damage was done; other sections of the
county light hail fell, but to do nc
hurt.

law i'm force some other method of de-
Chewing the voter became necessary, and
so the selection was made of a man
whose name was sufficiently similar to
accomplish the purpose. Similar frauds
are attempted at every election in local
contests i'm large cities.
When all the circumstances surround
ing the filing of the petition in behalf
of the socialist labor candidate are con-
sidered; the obscurity of the candidate
himself; the secrecy and expense with
which the petition was circulated; the
late hour at which it was filed, the
conclusion is irresistible that those who
instigaied the filing of this petition did
so with the sole purpose of deceiving
the voters of this state in sufficient
numbers to secuye the defeat of John
A. johnson, candidate of the democratic
party.
believe that you recognize this fact,
bat the only way for you to sufficiently
repudiate this dastardly attempt to dis
franchise the voters of this state, is to
denounee in fitting terms the motive
which prompted the deed.
In my Judgment your committee owes
it to themselves to take this action.
So far as the democratic state central
committee is concerned. it will continue
to sift this matter to the bottom, with
a view of such action upon its part as
may be deemed advisable in the future
