Waseca people got up benefit
concert in their Chautauqua tent
last Sunday, TO help along a move
ment for securing another encamp-
ment for 1909. The Waseca Chau-
tauqua was under the Holiday
management, all of our attractions
coming from that city on their way
to Watertown, S. D.
| J. H. Melges is deserving of a
vote of thanks at least for allowing
the public to lay waste the western
border of his lawn which he permit
ted to be used for the Chautauqua
tent. Mr.. Melges did not ask so
much as ticket of admission for
the privilege that many would have
made the management pay dearly
for.

Raw Christensen Of Lyon county
defeated the heavyweight champion
of the Northwest, Ordemann, in an
attempt of the latter to put Chris
tensen's shoulders to the mat in one
hour. on wager of 500. The
Journal sporting editor declares that
"Ordemann worked like a fox in
rhickencoop, but Christensen was
big, strong and clever, and finally
succeeded in staying away from the
grips of the champion for an hour,
when the bout was called a draw"
Franklin Tribune: Reports from
Morgan are to the effect that the
celebration in that village was most
successful. Father ]. ]. Woods de-
| livered the Grafton of the day. He
took for his subject the menace of
the political boss" and his note of
warning and protest against the
reign of the professional politician
and demagogue was most timely.
Father Woods delivered the grafton
at Morgan last year and the folks of
that community were so pleased
with it that they insisted upon his
return on that same date this year.
Market days have grown to be
highly successful business features
in a number of Renville county
towns, and the Olivia Times reports
that at the last market day at the
little town of Buffalo Lake, fully
1000 persons were on the streets.
many of them coming there from a
long distance of 20 miles. These
Market days have been held in Buff
falo Lake monthly for the past four
years, and the crowds that are seen
there on the first Monday of each
month is surprising. There is very
little expense connected with the
market day, and they have done
more for Buffalo Lake than any
other one thing could possibly have
; done. The one essential thing for
the successful carrying on of market
days is harmony among the business
men. Unless business men work
together unselishly it is useless for
them to attempt anything like a
market day affair such as is conduct
ed at Buffalo Lake.
Don't forget that next Saturday
evening is school meeting night. 1t
is best not to take it for granted
that the men you want to keep or
} elect on the board will be elected
whether you go or not. The very
small number which generally at
tends these meetings makes it always
possible for designing voters to pay
off a grudge by defeating the can
