CITY Election Next Monday.

The candidates who will ask for
the suffrages o: the people of the city
at the municipal election next Mon
day have all filed their nomination
for alderman In the second w. +. Baker
and Chas. Haas are candidates; in
the third. N. H. Adams and Peter
Jensen; in the fourth l.. l.. Couse,
H. Engbretson and Peter Z. Haugen
and in the fifth Z. J. Gillett and
Geo. Hislop. All that we have to say
is that we hope in each instance that
the best man for the position will be
elected having in mind the interest
of the city of DEBORAH, and we believe
such will be the case.
Besides the election of five alder
man. the Upper Iowa Power Go. asks
a re-voting of the franchise for the
operation of an electric light plant.
At special election held last summer
the citizens of DEBORAH voted such a
franchise, and preparations have been
made by this company, as is we'll
known, to construct large concrete
and steel dam some six miles down
the river, which will form beauti-
fnl lake IN one of the most picturesque
spots of Iowa, from which they expect
to develop at least $40 horse power
to operate their electric light plants
at Waukon and DEBORAH, thus making
a saving of about 80, 600 year in the
cost of coal. The former franchise
is not to be changed in any particular ;
but the lawyers for the bonding firm
which has agreed to furnish the
capital for this enterprise have
differed with local attorneys as to the
technical wording Of the Notice of
Election published last year, not the
franchise, and in order that every
thing may be perfectly straight and
avoid possible litigation in the future,
the company asks for re-vote. We
do not believe there will be much
opposition to the proposition. We
cannot see how anyone who wants to
see DEBORAH and this vicinity progress
can oppose it. 1t costs the city
nothing and brings money and enter
prise here. 1t will not raise the taxes
any, but will make light and power
cheaper. Here is an opportunity to
secure an investment of upwards of
$50, 600, something that will employ
local labor in its construction and
operation, and will result in a saving
in the price of electricity. Besides
this, the beautiful lake amid one of
natures garden spots will make an
ideal summer resort and attract lots of
people to this city. 1t will also be
an incentive to secure the location of
factories here, which we all want.
The Upper Iowa Power %. is asking
nothing not already granted, and not
for the benefit of DEBORAH. We hope
to see the proposition carried by a
large majority anu the project thus
encouraged by our people.

FINE LECTURE THURSDAY.
Ola Johann Saery0ld Will Deliver His
Illustrated Lecture On Norway
In English at the Grand
Tomorrow Night.

Ola Johann Saervold, b. A. Trave-
Ter. Lecturer, Journalist and Author
delivered his illustrated lecture on
Norway in the Grand opera house
Monday evening to thoroughly de-
lighted audience. Numerous regrets
were heard that the lecture was given
in the Norwegian instead of the En-
glish language and the lecturer has
therefore been prevailed upon to re-
peat his lecture in English tomorrow
Thursday evening, at the Grand
opera house, and the undersigned have
guaranteed him against financial
loss and Lave therefore placed the
price of admission at only 35 cents
for ali over the house. At this price
it is hoped that every seat in our
opera house will have an occupant
and the managers confidently believe
that every person present will be
highly pleased. Mr.. Saervold has
delivered nearly 1000 Lectures on Nor
way in this country and we could SUBJ
nit hundreds of testimonials of both
his lecture and his views but must
limit ourselves to only few from his
most recent tour.
At the close of the lecture tomorrow
night the managers will cheerfully
refund the money to anyone requesting
it on the ground that the lecture was
not worth the money.
We do this because we are DESTROYS
that as many as possible who do not
understand the Norwegian language
aud consequently could not with
benefit to themselves attend on Mon.
day evening should be given this
opportunity to get view of the nat
ural grandeur and beauty, excellent
schools, magnificent public buildings,
the liberal institutions and the home
life of the people in country that
has sent nearly one third of her entire
population to America. That country
is Norway.
Respectfully,
B. Anundsen, Mgr.

Mont, in it's Jan. Is, 1906 issue says
1t is seldom that the people of Hele-
ma have the opportunity of hearing
so entertaining lecture as that given
at the Auditorium last evening by Ola
Johann Saervold, B. A., who talked
of The Land of the Midnight Sun. "
There was large audience, and the
evidences of enthusiastic approval and
enjoyment were frequently given.
Mr.. Saervold took his audience with
him on tour of Norway, by means
of more than 200 stereopticon views.
The pictures were wonderfully clear,
and presented the most beautiful
portions of the land of the midnight
sun very wildly. The tour began
with look at the city of Christian a,
and from this point the lecturer guided
the party past the tremendous
waterfalls, one of them being 1900
feet high along the beautiful fjords,
to the splendid churches, and over the
excellent system of country roads.
TIL native costumes were shown, and
the manner of the weddings il that
country, while the pictures of the
ski races were intensely attractive.
The great fisheries. too, were shown
in detail.
The last of the views was tine
aurora borealis, the land Of the mid
night sun, one of the most entrancingly
beautiful pictures ever shown in
Helena, and the audience applauded
the scene enthusiastically. All in all,
it was lecture that was instructive
as we'll as entertai ming, and made a
lasting impression upon the aud
fence.
Hon. Randall j. Condor, state
superintendent of public instruction
of Montana writes to the city superin-
tendent in Butte as follows:
"Mr. Saervold lectured here last
evening to a large audience. and to
say that all were delighted is putting
it mildly. myself was charmed with
the lecture, and learned more about
the Land of the Midnight Sun"
than l ever knew before in regard
to its excellent schools, governmental
control of railroads, telephones, and
other, public utilities, its fine
churches and cathedrals. The
stereopticon views were the finest l
have seen in many day. IL would
be great treat to the people OF
Butte to have chance to hear and
see what Mr.. Saervold has to present. +"
Tile Butte Miner of Butte. Mont.
among other things says:
"A more perfect, instructive and
interesting sterenpticon lecture was
never given in Butte. The pictures
are of the dissolving character, one
fading away as another appears, and
each as distinct and perfect in detail
as the grandest oil painting.
The beautiful city of Ohristiana, as
shown by Mr.. Saervold is among the
most progressive cities in the world.
Her people lack none the conveniences
of modern life, and they enjoy some
of the scientific improvements even
to greater degree than Americans.
Her churches and cathedrals are
magnificent. Her telephone system
leads the cities of the world, and
her architectural beauty is said to
