NO LICENSE ON THE GAIN
Views Of N. A. Palmer the Anti Sa.
loon Man.

Summarizing the results of recent
lagos where license of liquor selling was
an issue, n. A. Palmer, state superin-
tendent of the State nti-Saloon league
has found that there is definite evidence
of an increased sentiment for no license
and lid policies.
"That which is of most vital inter
est says Mr.. Palmer, "is found in the
majorities of this year, as compared
with those of last year and other for
mer years. The majorities of the vii
lagos continuing license almost univer-
SALLY decreased, while those continuing
no license have increased.
"a few no license villages have voted
to restore the saloons. Probably the
most significant of these is Ada, the
county seat of Norman county. This
little city, however, was not normally
no license last year, but became so as
the reaction of trick of the saloon
people of that place one year ago in
connection with the city election. There
was not sufficient sentiment to continue
the no. license policy, and the laws were
only enforced during the year because
County Attorney N. T. Moen, with some
men of like spirit, kept an iron grasp
upon the situation. We have i'll this
fact another proof that votes must be
supported by public sentiment if any
policy is to be perpetuated.
Hoffman, Grant county, is another
example of the same principle, but in
reverse order. The saloons, by some dis
honest hook or crook, forced themselves
upon the people of that village, after
they had been defeated at a former cleo
ton and were rebuked for it at the
polls this year by a large majority.
"The number of license villages
which reversed the former decisions and
abolished the saloon by their recent vote
is somewhat, though not greatly larger
than those returning to license.
"Some of the most notable of those
aboIishing the saloons this year are
Buffalo, Cambridge, Grove City and
Worthington. We have list OF III
villages which have either voted the sa-
looms out or have kept them out. Our
list. however, is not complete.
at is also worthy of note that sew
eral cities have elected their officers
on the Sunday-closing issue, among
which were Rochester and Barnesville."

PACKING HOUSE NOTES.
Messrs. Macbeth e. Gardner Are
Making improvements.

The packing house of this city is one
of Mankato's industries that is doing a
much larger business than our people
realize. Here daily are killed and dress
ed large number of the choicest
beeves, calves, sheep, hogs and poultry,
all the meat is inspected by a govern
ment Inspector, insuring the public OF
food stuffs that strictly comply with the
pure food laws.
In their store rooms may be found
daily meats of all kinds ready for ship
ment and for local use that are the
most palatable the country produces.
Macbeth G. Gardner are making exten.
sive improvements around their build
ings and yards, among them being a
large poultry feeding shed. The build
ings and sheds are being painted and
whitewashed. Last winter this firm feed
$1,000 fowls, including poultry ducks,
geese and turkeys. This branch of their
business has largely increased during
the past year. One room is now de-
voted entirely to the packing and ship
ment of eggs. In this line they have
a nextensive business, and are supplying
many of the leading firms with this

HORSE DEALERS SUED
Firm Of Burgess & lukyn Of This City
Made Defendants in Action
Filed In Minnesota,

An action has been begun at st.
Peter Mimi, by Il number of farmers
against Burgess & Lukyn, the well
known horse firm of this city and Man
kato, to recover the sum of So, 800, the
value of Percheron stallion sold
about two years ago by the defendants.
Mr.. Lukyn of the firm, when seen to-
day, said that horse was sold to
farmers at Belgrade, Mlm., an import
ed Percheron stallion named Alcala.
The bill of sale and guarantee used in
this sale is the same as used in all
sales made by his firm If the horse
does not meet the guarantee the firm
will replace it with another horse, but
the animal sold must be as sound and
in as good condition in every way as
when purchased.
Mr.. Lukyn says the horse had been
kicked and injured as competent evil
dence will show. The plaintiffs ask
for another horse free of charge, and
the defendants have offered to share
part of the loss with them if they will
buy another horse. The charge, that
the horse sold was not as represented,
Mr.. Lukyn declares, is too silly to be
noticed. After the injury of the horse
the plaintiffs consulted DR.. Philips -
Mankato, and, at his request, it was
cared for in the barn of the defendants
at the order of the plaintiffs who asked
that the bill be sent to them The de-
PENDANTS made no charge whatever
and besides lent them horse for the
season free of cost and bred a number
of mares on the same terms. They
claim to have done all that reasonable
persons could expect.

PRIZES FOR HIRED HELP
Iowa Agricultural Society Proposes
4 Unique Awads.

Lake City. Iowa, April 1.-The Cal
houn County Agricultural society offers
some fine premiums to the best hired
GIRL and the best hired man employed
upon farm, and is limited to farmers
help in Calhoun county. The contest is
to commence April l, 1907, and close
Sept. l, 1907. In Offering the premiums
the fair management believes that lie
hired man and the hired girl are en-
titled to due credit for helping to make
and maintain the State of Iowa as the
first state in the Union in agriculture
and improved stock. The manage
ment believes it will be to the finan-
cial interest of many farmers to nomi-
nate the hired man or hired girl, as the
case may be, in this contest. The Off
Gals argue that it will stimulate them
to do, and remind them of their duties,
and that the farmers hired help that
is nominated in the contest will strive
to earn the prizes offered, and will be
worth SIS or $40 month more than the
help that has no stimulating object in
view.
As the money making proposition 1T
will prove very profitable investment
for the farmer, as the hired man that is
nominated in this contest will be on
hand in the morning before roll call if
he secures the prize.
The outcome of this unique contest is
watched with interest in this cOmmunl-
ty. The prizes include trips to the
state fair this year at Des MONIES, all
expenses paid.

Mayor Lundgren of Warren
Has Novel Plan.
GIVES A LOT TO COUPLES
List of Eligibles to Be Prepared for
the Executives; Council Would
Impose Tax.

Warren, Mimi, April Mayor Au
gust Lundgren, who has been elected
for the fourth consecutive time, has UNI
dertaken to settle the bachelor question,
SO far as it concerns Warren, at any
rate. At recent council meeting Il
proposition was made to impose Il tax
upon all bachelors over twenty five
Years of age. Mayor Lundgren, how
ever, persuaded the members of the
council, who were unanimously in favor
of action of some kind, to allow him to
try persuasive methods before using
compulsion.
He has now issued a proclamation in
which he offers to make presents OF fine
residence lots to the first five bachelors
or spinsters who abandon the selfish
state of celibacy for that of matri
mony, to the profit and advancement of
the city.
In his proclamation the mayor says
welfare of the city, and this portion of
the state. He says that personally he
has found that his family and his pros
perity have increased in equal ratio, and
he firmly believes that family firesides
are more valuable to a community than
bachelor apartments and eating houses
Investigation by the councilmen has
disclosed the fact that there is dearth
of females of manageable age in War
rem and vicinity. 1t was discovered
that there are number of bachelors,
all well to do, and some of them even
wealthy who are perfectly willing to as
sumo the matrimonial yoke, but lack
opportunity because of the scarcity of
eligible spinsters. TO overcome this
obstacle City Recorder Powell has been
instructed to make a list of the UNI
married of Warren who are willing to
consider proposals from the opposite
sex and also of applicants from distant
places. All such persons, however,
must agree to make their homes at OF
near Warren.
The married men of Warren are all
heartily in favor of Mayor Lundgren's
plan, and so far as has been ascertained
Il majority of the spinsters also hail
it with delight. Some of the chronic
bachelors are inclined to look with dis
favor upon the idea, but none as yet
has been outspoken in opposition.
Last year nearly half of the teachers
in the Warren schools made excellent
marriages Immediately after the close
of the school year, and it is expected
that fully as many will do likewise this
year. But there is still room for more,
according to Mayor Lundgren.

HAD A STRANGE DREAM
An Incident That Led to the Finding
Of a Body.
From Tuesdays Daily

The finding of the body of Thomas
Ford in the river at Grand Forks Sun
day, has revealed a phenomena of mind
that will make good food for the
psychologist, a phenomena that is III
applicable except through Quesne's doe
trines of the human soul.
The statement is the result of a
dream or vision that came to David
Morrow of Grand Forks as he lay
restlessly tossing about in bed on Sat
urday night. Mr.. Morrow dreamed
and the dream repeated itself several
times during the night, that he had
found the body of the late Thomas
Ford-that he had located it in the
river and had dragged it ashore with
a rope around one foot.
When daylight came, there still re-
manned consciousness of the strange
dream. Mr.. Morrow finally decided to
visit the river and, accordingly he
donned his coat and cap and set out
at ii o'clock.
As he reached the river, and set foot
upon the boats moored to the bank
he heard shout from one of the
bridges.
Bring rope Mr.. Morrow and hurry
said the voice, which was that of Cap
tain Hayes, who at that very moment
had found the body of the dead man
and had it dangling in the water at
the end of pike. Mr.. Morrow hur-
riedly secured rope attached it to one
of the feet, even as he dreamed it
during the night and hauled it ashore
The dream and its prophetic nature
is but another of the strange psycholo-
gical phenomenons, presumably pro-
duced by combining relations of the
mental processes.

ANOTHER WRECK.
Mixed Train Deraiied at Whittaker's
Crossing Yesterday Afternoon.


The mixed train on the Milwaukee
road, due from the south early in the
afternoon, was wrecked near the Whit
taker crossing, two miles from the city,
yesterday afternoon. 1t met the south
bound passenger train at Rapidan at
about $3.50 p. m, and then proceeded
toward this city When near the Whit
taker crossing one of the freight cars
Jumped the rails, and five freight cars
and two passenger coaches went off be-
fore the train could be stopped. The
cars all remained right side up and no
one was injured. The wreck delayed
traffic, as the track was not cleared un-
til half an hour after midnight.
Passengers OH the evening train were
brought as far as the wreck on the pas
senger train and were then transferred
to car OH this side that was attached
to, freight engine.
Why the car should have jumped the
track is mystery, as the rails and roll
ing stock were all in good shape, as well
as the road bed. The accident resulted
in some twisted rails, but the derailed
cars were not damaged The train was
in charge of Conductor Skinyon, and is
known as train 1913. Several derailments
have recently occurred between this city
and Rapidan, but fortunately little
damage has been done.

FAT STOCK SHOW
Il VIII Be Held at South ST. Paul
This Yesr.
From Iridav,s Dali

South st. Paul will have Fat Stock
Show this year. That was the decision
arrived at yesterday at meeting of
the South st. Paul Live Stock Exchange
after listening to a report of a commit
tee which has been considering the mat.
ter for some time.
The exact date of the show or the de-
tailed plans thereof were not decided
upon, the matter having been left in the
hands of committee of five appointed
by the presiding officer, Vice President
y. p. Rogers.
1t was evident from the large attend
ance at the meeting and the expressions
given by the members that the pro-
ject has excited a great deal of interest
and enthusiasm among the members of
the Exchange and that they will give it
united and enthusiastic support.
The committee. which will have the
matter in charge will make a special
effort to enlist the interest of all breed.
ers in the project and by the example
of other mems success in cattle raising
furnish an object lesson which will be
impetus to an industry which is too gen.
orally neglected.
Secretary Randall of the State Agri-
cultural society, who was present up
on other business said that the project
meets with the hearty endorsement of
his society, in spite of the fact it will
cut off the prizes hitherto offered at the
state fair by the South st. Paul Ex-
change. The secretary very kindly offer
ed to include the list of premiums to
be offered i'm the premium book of the
fair association, which would be very
valuable advertisement.
The date of the show will be arrang-
ed so as not to conflict in any way with
the state fair which makes a speciality
of live stock.
The committee named by Mr.. Rogers
to complete the arrangements for the
show is composed as follows:
j. S. Bangs, III. b. Carroll, C.. G.. Smith,
Charles McKissick and A. Simmer.
