His stock proposition, with its 6 per
cent. guarantee and man like Mr..
Burmeister behind it, looks like
much better investment than the
average railroad or mining stock
scheme. If it is not get-rich-quick
scheme it is can't-lose one. which
isa good deal better in the long
run.s
There is one candidate on the Re-
publican state ticket who has every
reason to be gratified with the vote
given him in this county. We refer
to julius A. Schmahl, reelected sec
rotary of state last week. Mr.
Schmahl received the largest vote of
any candidate on the state ticket in
this county, 1854 votes, or more
than hundred more than was given
for the Republican candidate for
president. On the county ticket N.
V. R. Hunter had the highest vote
-2739-Sheriff Schueller being a
close second, with 2736 votes.
| Just to get in a motion before
someone else had made it, the Lam
berton Star dominates Congressman
| Volstead for governor two years
hence, and will have very little
trouble in getting plenty to second
the suggestion. And brother Starr
associates with this suggestion the
nomination of his distinguished
townsman, Senator Clague, for Con-
gress. The senator would probably
consider this suggestion as prema-
ture at this time, but as Redwood
county has never failed to give him
a big majority in his past campaigns
there is no question about what it
would do if Congressman Volstead
declined to become a candidate two
years hence.
j Mr.. Catalan of Mason City, Iowa,
who owns a good-sized tract in Del
hi, was in town one day last week
and chatted in an interesting way
about his impressions of Redwood
county farms and farming. He adj
mitted that soil and crop conditions
were quite as good here as in north
ern Iowa, but thought Iowa farmers
averaged little higher in enterprise
and industry, while conceding that
many Of his neighbors in Delhi would
rank we'll anywhere. He thought
that considering the soil and social
advantages in and around Delhi,
property ought to be worth fifty per
cent more than it has been sold there
recently. With improved farms
selling FRONT ninety dollars up in
Iowa. he thought Delhi farms ought
to sell for not much less than $75 per
. acre, and when the surplus water
had been taken care of by thing he
looked to see the price up to that
figure.
