N. p. Nelson Commended.

Mr.. E. P. Nelson, Superintendent
Of the southern division of the Du-
luth Elevator Co., has received some
very flattering notices of his work
as chief weighmaster of the grain
inspection force at Superior, Wis.
He was appointed to this position
by the Wisconsin authorities about
six months ago. He was offered a
considerable increase in salary if he
would return to his old position,
which caused him to resign after
serving the state Of Wisconsin for
five months. One of the commits
sioners in an interview with one of
the publishers of a Superior paper
said:
Very few people in Superior rea-
lize the difficulties which the chief
weighmaster would have to over
come starting up a department with
practically every man under him
unfamiliar with the business. E.
?. Nelson was selected to fill this
position, and to say that he has
filled it creditably is stating it
mildly. 1t is safe to say that no
weighing department in the coun-
try, no matter how many years they
have been in existence, has given
better satisfaction than the depart
ment under Mr.. Nelson. 1t is only
fair to the men under him to say

COUNTY POLITICS

The date for the primary cleo
tion this year is Sept. Is, hence it
is more than three months distant.
The prospective candidates for NOM
ination have shown good sense in
not rushing their announcements
for nominations in this county.
The primary campaign will be long
enough as it is. However, the
political pot has now begun to sim
mer a little and there is more or
less talk of the candidates and pros
pective candidates.
There seems to be considerable
speculation as to whether or not
the Prohibitionists will have a
ticket in the field. 1t is known, Of
course, that Peter Bonde is a candi-
date for reelection for sheriff, but
whether there will be other candi-
dates on the Prohibition ticket is
not known. A strong fight for the
election between rival tickets in
the county will be a good thing for
the newspaper men, at any rate,
and that may have something 70 do
with the many suggestions that the
Prohibitionists will have a full
ticket in the field. One thing is
certain-there is no one that can
prevent anyone from filing on the
Prohibition ticket. Anyone who
chooses to do so can file on that
ticket for any office and it would
seem where the candidate wanted
to try conclusions where he would
be quite certain of not having more
than one opponent and only one
campaign to make, he could make
sure of this by filing on the Prohi-
bition ticket. And if he is a pop
ular man and makes good cam
paign, the fact that he has the word
prohibition" after his name on the
ballot instead of Republican would
not hurt him in this county.
The majority Of the county board
will be elected this fall as the terms
of three members expire, namely
those of T. H. Olson, N. B. John
son and August Bitten. Mr.. Olson,
we understand. is candidate for
reelection. We have heard moth
ing regarding the intentions of the
other two. 1t is said that John
Wicklund will be a candidate for
the position in the fifth district and
he will prove a strong one. The
county board can do a real service
to the county if they would re-dis-
trict the same before election
The apportionment at the present
time is the same as when it was or.
ganized after the consolidation with
Monongalia in 1870. At that time

Prompt Settlement.

Atwater, Mimi. June l, 1908.
Mr.. j. F. Branton, State Manager,
Central Life Assurance Society,
Willmar, MINI.
Dear Sir:-On March 18th, 1908,
my husband, Mr.. Peter Boyle, gave
you an application for So, 600 of life
insurance in the Central Life AS
suracne Society of Des Moines,
Iowa. You delivered the policy to
him April 23rd and he died on May
10th, 1908. You have this day,
June LIST, handed me draft No.
26398 for $2,000.00 in payment of
same.
l wish to thank you and the Gen.
trail Life for the courteous treat
ment and the very prompt and salts
factory settlement of this claim.
My husband was great admirer of
the Standard policy written by the
Central Life. l cheerfully recon-
mend your company to any one de-
string life insurance.
Yours respectfully,
(Signed) Leora Boyle
Beneficiary.
1t you are not already carrying
life insurance make your applica-
tion today, tomorrow may be too
late. No better policy than the
Standard policy issued by the Gen.
trail Life. Send your name, age,
nearest birthday. and address to
the Central Life office, Bank of
Willmar Building, Willmar, MINI.
and get a sample policy.

ty was not settled and the first dis
trict was made to include seven
townships, besides the village of
Willmar. while the fourth district
has only three townships. MIR. o.
son now represents more than two
fifths of the population and assessed
valuation of the county. Willmar
township, including the city, is
clearly entitled to one member of
the board, and the other six town
ships now attached to Willmar
would no doubt be glad to have
representative independent of Will
mar. The re-apportionment would
probably have been made years ago
but for the fact that such an act
would legislate one commissioner out
of office. It seems that if this is
ever to be done, this would be an
opportune time as any.
With possibly one or two excep-
tions, all OF the present incumbents
Of county Offices, will be candidates
for reelection. It is not known
whether or not Warner Norm in
tends to try for a seventh term.
He probably is laying low to see
how many there are who will con-
test for the office. In case there is
enough candidates, he probably will
enter the field. Mr.. Olson, the
present incumbent of the regis
ter of deeds office, has not decided
whether or not he will be candi-
date for reelection, and his deci-
sion may be influenced by the char
acter and number of the candidates
who announce themselves.
Among new candidates so far
heard of are N. o. Nelson for coun-
~ treasurer; o. A. Grangaard and
L. z. Thompson for register of
deeds and John Malmberg and Phil
Haley for sheriff. The candidacy
of the latter was announced in an
editorial in the Willmar Republican
Gazette last week. The fact that
the Gazette ignored the candidacy
Of John o. Malmberg- altho he had
been discussing the matter with
his friends at Willmar, including
the Gazette editor, for two days
is rather significant.
The only actual filing made for
the primaries up to this time is
that of Chas. E. johnson for repre-
sentative.
The Republican county conven-
ton for the purpose of electing del
egates to attend the state nominal
ing convention will be held at the

tails of horsemen were scouting in
order to locate any Indians, should
they approach. There were two
wounded men in the party. One,
who had been struck by a charge of
buckshot in the abdomen, bore his
terrible pains with fortitude, but
died during the night in Peterson
house. Another had been shot in

started eastward, guided by the
faithful Indian. Charles Peterson
