In placing the names of E. j.
English, of De Smet township, and
Mark Plowman, of Spring Lake town
ship, before the republicans of Kings
bury county for nomination at the
June primaries, the ~progressives have
put forward two good sound men.
Both are farmers who stand high in
the esteem Of their acquaintance,
and both are men who are practical
and well posted upon public ques-
tons. They stand for progressive
principles becaues they have studied
the question and believe them to be
right. They are men of the people,
and men who will in every way work
to the best interests of the people of
Kingsbury county and of the state.
The republican voters of this county
can safely place their confidence in
these two men.
The original Boston Boomers
ladies' base ball club, who are max
ing an extensive tour of this country
travelling in their own special private
car, will play a most novel, interest
ing and exciting game of ball with
our local team on Friday, May 22nd.
They have caused thousands to APP
plaud and marvel at their wonderful
playing and are without doubt the
greatest club of base ball players
ever organized. Their remarkable
success during the short time they
have been in this state is only a con
tinuation of the success they have
met with everywhere. Ladies can at
tend this game without fear of being
offended, as nothing will be said or
done that would shock the most fas-
tidious. Game called at 3 p. m. Ad-
mission 25 cents, grand stand 10 cents
extra. You will be greatly dissap-
pointed if you fail to see them.
During the twenty-eight years
this county has been organized Hart
land township has never been re-
presented on the board of county
commissioners. Whitewood town
ship held the Office for one term, and
the balance of the time it has been
held in Baker township or in the city
of Lake Preston For eleven years
last past it has been held by a resi-
dent of Lake Preston. The people
of Hartland township feel that it is
their right to be represented on the
board and have induced Thos. Soren
son to ask for nomination at the hands
of the republicans at the June pri-
maries. Mr.. Sorenson is an able man,
one who has proved himself in the
management of his own affairs, and
the strict attention which he always
gives to business at hand would make
him a valuable man on the board.
All are interested in this matter every
republican should see to it that he
casts his vote for Thos. Sorenson for
county commissioner.
Hon. G. w. Stoner, of Iroquois,
was a visitor in the east end of the
county the latter part of last week.
Mr.. Stoner was, of course, looking
after his political interests. He is
asking a denomination for the legisla-
ture at the hands of the republicans
at the June primaries. Mr.. Stoner is
no stranger in this matter as he is
asking the denomination upon the
strength of his record two years ago,
his first term, and upon the fact that
he stands squarely for the progressive
platform. We are proud to say that
he was regarded as one of the most
able men in the house during the last
session. He is not a mar of oratorical
or grand stand playing ability, but is
purely of the business type. At all
times he was present and prepared to
vote upon every subject from a prac-
