Milroy Echo: w. G. Frank, VIM.
Duncan, Jr., and c. C. Dripps took
a spin out into the country Monday
afternoon in Mr.. Franks auto, and
in making calculations concerning
the storm that was pending. the boys
got caught about half mile from
town and were compelled to get un-
der the auto, as the hailstones were
too numerous for them. The ma

civic committee for inducing him to
clean up his premises, in common
with everybody in town. While
cutting down the weeds. he discov-
cred very good lumber wagon that
had been lost for several years. We
hear of two or three threshing ma
chimes outfits that have been found

Sale of liquor on dining or buffet
cars in Minnesota is violation of
law according to an opinion written
last week by Assistant Attorney
General Peterson. Mr.. Peterson
takes the position that the revenue
tax paid to the federal government
is for revenue only and carries with
it no authority for the sale of liquor
in Minnesota, and except for that
revenue tax the railroads pay no
form of license fee or tax.
Vesta Censor: John Morgan, A.
T. Morgan, Peter Scott, G. j. Hickey,
Herman Kremin and Henry Chris
topherson got out one day last week
and hauled u loads of gravel to fill
in bad piece of road in district No.
4, making the road almost as good as
a turnpike. If all the farmers in the
country would do as much in build
ing good roads each year as the
above named gentlemen did on the
one bad piece, the county would
soon have the best roads in the state.

BILE ahead for the politicians in this

young and aggressive young men
have been selected to push the
league work in the state. L. I.
Bredvold, former university stu
dent and one of the best of the LOG,
is to devote his entire time to this
county. The man that goes to the
lower house will find it pretty hard
shedding to oppose Mr.. Bredvold's
cause.
