showing was made in the face of an

low railroad rates just before the fair,

farmers from turning out, might nat

his fleet is now in winter quarters In
Fountain City bay. He says that on
account of the small appropriation the
work was not begun until in August,
and from that time until the present
month the fleet has been busy in this
section, especially at Beef slough bar,
which has been one of the worst
stretches along the upper river. About
$4,000 was expended at that point, the
channel was cut thru the bar, the
old wing dams were raised and ten new
wing dams were constructed. The
channel will now be from four to six
feet in depth in times Of low water. A
larger appropriation is needed for next
year to carry on the work successfully.

Two Ahead.

st. Paul-Two candidates on the re-

by larger pluralities than John A. john
son received for governor. E. T. Young,
attorney general, will have plurality
of nearly $4,000 and State Auditor S. G.
Iverson will have close OF $4,000. Gov.
Johnson's majority, based on complete
though unofficial returns from all the
counties, is about 1880, while Iverson
and Young have a larger plurality than
that in a list of seventy-five counties,
and it is known that their majorities
will be increased by the returns from
those counties.
Seventy-six counties, including the
three large cities, give 1895 votes for
Iverson and $3.50 for A. E. Aarnes, a
plurality Of 1880 for Iverson. Seventy
five counties give E. T. Young 159,146
votes and John Dwan 81 zoos, plurality
of 1914 for Young. The counties that
have not been heard from are strong
republican counties and the incomplete
returns from them indicate that
Young's plurality will lack very little
of $4,000.

covers in the neighborhood of 11,500.0Oo
miles in their travel through the state.
There are 1,463 rural routes in Min

twenty-five miles. Thus in day the
carriers cover about $1,000 miles, which
is almost half the entire wagon road

of twenty-five miles day, one carrier
would in a years time travel 1925
miles, not including Sundays. but figur-

is made 460 times during one year. In
