SHORT BUT SWEET
County Convention at WabassO Last
Wednesday in Session Only
Thirty Minutes.
Delegates Uninstructed on Governor
For SCChmahl for Secretary
of State Aftermath.

Owing to almost impossible roads
the convention was not largely at
tended and passed off very quietly
A caucus was called at 1870 at
which it was decided to recommend
A. D. Stewart of Redwood Falls
township for chairman and A. D.
McRae of Sanborn for secretary,
and that county central committee
of five, one from each commissioner
district, should be appointed. The
caucus was open to the public and
was entirely harmonious.
At II o'clock sharp the convention
was called and the caucus nominees
were elected as officers of the con-
vention. A. D. Stewart responded
with a short address, the main idea
being that by electing him the con-
vention had endorsed his rather
wobbly political record. He pre-
dlcted the success OF the candidaneS
of the coming state convention. Mr..
Stewart made a fair and efficient
chairman.
Mr.. Larson of Walnut Grove
moved that the report of credential
committee be dispensed with; that
all delegates with credentials be
delegates and that Republicans pres
ent from precincts not holding eau
cuses should cast vote of that pre-
cinct, the resolution carried and
this shortened time of convention.
AS many of the delegates desired to
leave on the / o'clock train they
urged the convention to proceed as
rapidly as possible. Speaker Clague
moved that temporary organization

be made permanent, which carried

pointed Of one from each district,
and upon being carried the follow

While the committee was out the

lowing as members of the central

for secretary of state, instructing
the delegates of this county to use
all honorable means to bring about

SCHOOL OFFICERS MEET
One Hundred and Flfty-one of the Men
Behind the SChOOima ans Meet
at WdbaSSO.
Many Men of Many Minds, but All
United on Keeping Redwood
County to the Front.

The call for convention of school
officers at Wabasso last Saturday
attracted the largest attendance that
has gathered at any Of these meet
ings since the first one was held,
four years ago. Ninety-three dis
tricts were represented, out of the
108 districts in the county, anumber
of the districts having two and
few three representatives, making
the accredited attendance number
Isl. The character of these school
men and the spirit shown by them
went far towards explaining some
of the causes which have made the
rural schools of the county the best
in the state as a whole. School
trustees generally have little honor
in their own districts and more criti-
cism than praise. But they are the
men behind the school ma ans, and
Supt. Race, IN his opening talk, was
disposed to ascribe to their zeal and
liberality in school affairs a large
share of the credit for the rank the
schools of this county have attained
to. The superintendent talk along
this line led up to his statement that
there were few things still lacking
in our schools and their surround
ings, one of which was attractive
school grounds. He called upon Mr..
Henderson, who is director of one
of the best equipped schools in the
county, to introduce the subject of
tree planting on school grounds.
Mr.. H. responded by telling of a
recent experience. The school ma am
in his district was uncomfortably
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1906-06-13

progressive at times, and had given
himself and neighbor trustee no
peace until they had gone out this
spring and transplanted number
Of evergreens, which they had set
out in the grounds with considerable
care and hoped to be able to keep
alive. Mr.. Henderson left no room
for doubt about his belief in hav-
ing an attractive school grounds
to advertise to the passing way
farers that the people took pride in
their school.
Other directors were asked to give
their experiences, among them Di-
rector Tirhell of Vesta, who had
done a good deal Of tree planting
but had little faith in being able to
raise evergreens on school grounds.
He had noticed that not over ten
per cent. of the evergreens planted
on private grounds in this county
had lived beyond the second year.
He thot that only hardy trees like
the box elder, elm or soft maple
could make a live of it on school
grounds, and these only when fenced
or protected. The only way to sue
coed with evergreens was to set
them out in a barrel or other means
of shading from the sun.
August Leonard of Belview fol-
lowed, with the opening observation
that he would like to show the last
speaker a grove of evergreens set
out in this county several years ago,
Is per cent. of them now growing
finely. Mr.. Leonard made a most
interesting talk about experiences
with the Belview school grounds,
which now contain fine growth of
trees. He insisted that no tree
would live without occasional atten-
ton. That young trees needed to
be soaked in very dry weather once
or twice week, and either cult
waited or mulched to prevent their
becoming grass bound or poorly
rooted.
Director A. M. Dennistoun told of
tree planting in his district under
hopeful conditions, and was followed
by Messrs. D. Notion, G. /. Davis

AFTERMATH.

AFTERMATH.
McRae is a dandy secretary.
Clague and Larson make strong
team for the two at large.
Most of the county candidates
were there with the "glad hand"
Henderson declaims being poll
ticisn but has some of the move
ments of one.
The old friends of Charlie Knox
admired the aldermanic proportions
he is assuming.
Pat Callaghan came in spattered
with mud, but as usual gathered
crowd to listen to his ready wit.
Bendixen has a safe adviser and
shrewd manager in Holmer John
son, who has no enemies and counts
his friends by the hundreds.
Josh Towle represented New Avon
and chummed with the grandson
of the original bunch he used to
meet in Redwood conventions.
Jim" Marvin was over from
Johnsonville as usual ready to serve
and stand by his friends with him
that other Johnsonville prince, Ratke.
Alfred Laudon will make a strong
member of the central committee
and could make an efficient chair
man. Keep your eye on Laudon, for
he's conner.
Philbrick made a fine appearance
and came into the convention just
in time to turn the tide of battle.
He stood in the door and they
couldn' t-get-by.
A small war cloud lowered around
Morgan township for a few mo-
ments, threatening double header,
but peace reigned and at last re-
ports the Dutch have not taken
Holland.
Roy futile said to Dad" "Mr.
futile can you furnish me match?"
Dad sighed as he pulled out the
match. Il have been handing out
matches for 80 years to this same

FAVORS THE MOVEMENT.
Congress Heights Association Endorses
Greater Washington.

The Congress Heights Citizens Associa-
ton at its meeting last evening voted unan-
mously to indorse the Greater Washing on
movement. with which it was decided the
organization should associate itself close
ly as possible. Mr.. E. E. Fisher. speaking
on the subject. declared the association
should ally itself with those who are pro-
noting the Greater Washington plan, as
anything tending toward the development
of that idea would undoubtedly help Con-
gress Heights. Mr. Edward ]. Newconb
expressed himself in similar way, and it
was decided that Secretary Sirich canmuni-
cate with those directing the movement,
with the view of taking part in the enter
prise far possible
The meeting Of the association was open
ed with the presentation by Mr.. GustaYe
Bender the chairman of the committee en-
powered to work In the interest of sewer
age and water facilities for the suburb. who
declared his committee could do no more.
Mr.. Bender announced that the District
Commissioners were unable under the law
to accept the several rights of way given
by various property owners to afford
outlet for the sewer to the river. He said
it is known the Commissioners are willing
to order the construction of the sewer were
the necessary dedication o. the ground made
outright. This. stated Mr.. Bender, now ap-
pears to be impossible. the land owners
had refused to take such action. He was
unable to see any prospect of securing the
sewerage facilities unless the association
decided to present special bill in the mat
ter at the coming session of Congress pro-
viding that the land required be condemned.
His report was tabled until the next meet
ing.
The secretary read a communication from
the office of the Commissioners to the effect
that the associations request for improve
ment of various roads in Congress Heights
will receive attention. a letter was read
from Superintendent William A. White of

the long hag-decked parlor of the Ebbitt
House. A rich, rare fragrance greeted the
delegates as they entered the assembly
room. and on investigation it was found to
come from a great basket of red roses,
which almost covered the big, round rose
wood table Of the president general. The
handle Of the basket bore the card of
Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt and was sent
by the wife Of the President to the ladies
of the Spanish War Auxiliaries.
The courtesy thus extended by the first
lady in the land was heartily appreciated
by the members of the assembly, and
brought forth many expressions of pleas
ure and delight.
The basket of roses will be one of the
chief features of the decorations in the
red parlor at the reception tonight.
