Wedding Bells.

The wedding bells rang out joyful
~ in Vega last Sunday when two
most estimable young people were
united for life, namely Miss Emma
Helmina Wahlin, daughter of Rev.
Carl Wahlin, of Vega, and Carl G.
peterson, son of Mrs. Emma F. Pet
erson, of Warren. The ceremony
was performed at the brides home
by her father in the presence of many
relatives and friends. The bride
was beautifully gowned in white
crepe de chene and the groom was
dressed in the conventional black.
Gust Wahlin, brother of the bride,
served as best man, and Miss Corne-
liza lverson, as brides maid. The
decorations were smilax and carna-
tlons. A sumptuous wedding din
ner was served. The happy couple
were the recipients of many beauti-
full presents. The groom is pros
porous young farmer in Warrenton,
where they will make their home
and be ''at home" ITO their friends
the latter part of this month.
A host of friends extend hearty con-
gratulations to the newly welded
pair and wish them an abundance of
life's blessings.

Buys Out His Partner,

Nels johnson has bought out his
partner, A. E. Swenson's interest in
the Warren machine shop, and will
continue the business, Mr.. Swenson
retires and will probably go into
the same kind of business in another
town. During the past few years
the business has increased greatly
and Mr.. Johnson has some thoughts
of Incorporating, enlarge the plant
and provide additional working cap
ital. This is a Warren enterprise
which deserves to be encouraged.

Spruce Valley Drainage.

The meeting in Spruce Valley
Township last Monday afternoon to
consider the proposition to bond the
town for drainage purposes was well
attended.
There we're more than 80 voters
present at Edlund's store, where the
meeting was held. And. K. Moen was
made chairman and L. johnson, Sec
retary. -
The proposition was first to bond
for $40, 600; but later those in favor
were inclined to be content with
Sc, 600 to dig bitches from the east
side of town to Middle River, on the
north lines of sections 36, rs and "a.
The opposition held that it would
be better to raise money by road
taxes, and do the ditching by road
building thus reducing cost and
avoiding debts.
The meeting drew a pretty free ex-
preston of opinion from all present.
The vote was IA in favor and Is
against the proposition to bond.

The Warren Building and Loan
Association.

The Warren Building and Loan
association which was organized Dec.
18th, 1905, and duly incorporated und-
er the laws Of the State of Mime
sofa, with capital stock of $500, 600,
is an institution from which much
may be expected in the future for
the upbuilding Of our city and pro-
viding homes for our people. The
officers Of the association are Aug.
Lundgren, president; G. Wittensten,
Vice president; Albin Young, secre-
tary; Louis NJ. Olson, treasurer; A.
N. Eckstrom, attorney. The Board
of Directors are: Louis M. Olson,
Aug. Lundgren, John Lindberg, G.
Wittensten, Peter Olson, Nels john
son, G. E. Lundquist.
Local building and loan associations
are popular institutions in many
towns and the idea is continually
growing. They provide an easy
means for people of limited means
to acquire homes, cultivate the habit
of saving on the part of many who
otherwise would not, and Immediately
works in the direction of good citi-
zenship. The Warren association
starts out with a good membership,
which will rapidly be increased as
the plan becomes better known to
the people of the city. Anyone de-
string to know about the association
will do well to call on it's secretary,
Albin Young.

Surprise Party in Big Woods.

Surprise Party in Big Woods.
They had a grand good time at a
house warming at S. NJ. Swanson's,
in Big Woods, last Friday, January
5th. All the neighbors from far and
near we're gathered to felicitate the
family on their occupation of their
new home. 1t was surprise on the
good folks but everyone was made
welcome and invited to enjoy them
selves. A bountiful supper had been
provided by the visitors which all
paid due honors t.. A splendid bed
room set was presented to Mr.. and
Mrs. Swanson as an evidence OF good
faith and high estimation on the
part of the givers. Everybody stayed
late and went home happy.
Mr.. Swanson is one of the oldest
settlers in Big Woods township. He
took up his homestead on section "a
some time about 1878 and has lived
on the farm continuously ever since.
Last summer he erected fine new
residence which occasioned last Fri
days gathering. The family consist
of Mr.. an Mrs. Swanson and chill
dren, all of whom reside on the
homestead. ~ r. 1s.

tory Immediately tributary to it far
greater than what it has lost. The
towns of Farley and Brislet, and Nc
Crea, at our very door, have but a
small area under cultivation, and are
bound to quadruple in population in
few years. All the big farms in
the vicinity will eventually be sub
divided into smaller farms, in fact
all OF them are now for sale and
parts Of some have already been sold.
A farmer on each 160 acre tract of
these big farms will mean much TO
this city.
No, Warren has just commenced
to grow and to take her rightfulplace
as a commercial center in this great
valley, and we fear that jealousy on
the part of Crookston has inspired
the Times article. Warren with it's
excellent public schools and other ed
ucational advantages, it's splendid
system of electric light and water
works, it's beautiful location on the
timber fringed banks of Snake river,
it's substantial stores and public
buildings and handsome homes, situ-
ated in the midst of an agricultural
district unsurpassed in fertility, be-
sides being the county seat of the
best county in the Red River valley,
and with men and women the equal
of any, such town is not destined
to die
Railroads did not kill Crookston
nor will they kill Warren. Even
the proposed Great Northern line will
not materially injure this city. The
statement that 200, 900 bushels of
wheat we're marketed at the elevator
between this city and Argyle is also
a fabrication. One tenth of that
figure would come nearer the truth.
From this time on the future of
Warren as commercial center is as
sured, the croakers and the pessim-
lists to the contrary notwithstanding.

Radium Wants License.

L. J. Kroller, of Radium, present.
ed petition, signed by the town
board of Comstock to the. board of
County Commissioners at their recent
meeting, asking for a license for a
saloon at that place. The county
board fixed the amount OF the license
at $1,000 and the granting of it is now
III the power Of the town board.
Half Of this money goes to the town
ship road and bridge fund and the
other half to the county road and
bridge fund. The county board does
not like to do much granting of sa-
loon license but in the light of recent
events they have an idea that if the
eastern part of the county had more
saloons and less blind pigs it would
be better for all concerned.
