BROWN REDWOOD DRUGGIST AsSO.

Our local druggists will entertain
the druggists of the Brown-Red-
wood County Association of Drug
gists today, as well as many others
who have been invited to be present.
The meetings have generally
been held at New Ulm or Sleepy
Eye on account of better rail
way service but this year the
officers, yielding to the persuasions
of Messrs. Hitchcock & Luscher,
have set their annual meeting here.
The plan is to have the regular
business meeting and then take the
visitors around to see the scenic
features of our city. Mr.. Whipple
of Chicago and a representative of
the national association of druggists
will address the meeting.
In Pres. Eckstein the druggists
will present one of the forceful
leaders Of his business and a splen-
did representative of the aggressive
western business man. He has been
president of the state association
and very prominent worker in the
national pharmaceutical association.
Mr.. Eckstein has for many years
been chairman of the county com
missioners of Brown county; has
held many city positions of trust
and honor and is generally regarded
as one of the most active and useful
citizens of our sister city on the

Supt. Harrington of CrOokston to
Assist in Encouraging the
School Exhibitors.

The fair is at hand and if it is not
a success it will not fail on account
of any lack of effort and care on
the part of our business men
Messrs. Gales, Durham. Smith
Hubbard and others have worked
almost constantly to secure fine at
fractions and inluce farmers and
others to exhibit. The same amount
of energy would have brought them
in dollars in any private business.
It's up to the people now to get out
and help make it a success. Half
the value of a fair is the inter-
change of ideas and the bringing
together of people to meet each
other. Those of us who have been
willing to let these hardworkers car
ry the burden ought to show our
appreciation by standing Loyalty by
them during the three days of the
fair.
We believe it is going to be better
than ever and we don't profess to
be very much on the inside either.

BETTER BUILD UP WHAT WE HAVE.

So quietly that half of the people
have not thought of it Redwood
Falls has added two very promising
manufacturing plants to the city.
Mr.. Stensvad is building up a very
creditable business on the corner of
Mill and Third streets in his cream
cry plant. The new cement tile
company is putting on to the market
the best tile that has Icome to Red
WOOD Falls since thing became an
acute issue.
We often hear people say why
don't they start manufacturing
here. These people seem to have
an idea that such institutions are
grown in a single season like cucum-
Der pickles. While We have- occasion
ally an instance where some city or
town gets big plant from the out
side, as rule manufacturing be-
gins small and expands. If this
place ever gets plants it is likely to
get them from small beginnings. So
if you still yearn for an answer to
your question why don't they put
in manufacturing here?" just con-
slider you are one Of the they and
/ look around and see if there is any,
thing you can begin to make If
you wait for somebody else to do the
thing it may never be started and if
it is you wont be much a winner by
its success. The writer remembers
when the great plant of Nichols &
Shepard at Battle Creek was not
much larger than several shops are
that we have. But they did not
spend their time in asking why some
one else did not start something but
they started. And it's there.
This attempting to get something
in bigger than all out doors" usu
ally fails. The big plants are doing
we'll enough where they are, dom
want to go anywhere else. Those
that you can get are usually conf
dence schemes pure and simple. Ane
nearly every town has its ruins anc
monuments of folly where the people
have tried to get some big thing
started and it wouldn't or didn'
. work.
The Gazette would rather see ;
building up of the business we hav'
already started. like charging thu
Burmeister mills, trebling Jap
foundry. increasing Mason's Til
works or the new tile factory ant
, booming Stensvad's excellent propo
, sition than to see lot of money ex
pended in trying to get some easter
, man to bring million dollar plan
in here.
We know that these are succeed
ing while with that we should con
clude that some lambs would be ex
posing shorn sides to the next Nc
i vember blast.
The next time any fellow bleat

i they start something?" either asl

BOUQUETS FOR PETERSON.
Marshall News-Messenger Gives S. G.
an interesting Write-Up.

Charlie Whitney, founder Of the
Reveille, had quite an interesting
story last week concerning the life
and adventures Of S. e. Peterson,
Whose business career has been
about equally divided between news
paper publishing and selling Wom-
ems cloaks and garments at whole
sale and retail, and who is we'll
known to the feminine trade of
Marshal as Peterson, the cloak man.
For several years Peterson has
had one or more newspapers on his
hands, and has almost done a brok-
erage business, but we have never
known of his losing money in a
newspaper trade. And he makes
money selling cloaks, because he
knows the value of advertising.
/ We remember not long ago that
Peterson hired store in Redwood
Falls, put in twelve thousand
dollar stock of women's garments,
against larger stocks held by older
merchants. gave the people a few
months whirl in advertising. and
closed out seven thousand dollars to
the good. Since that eye-opener to
the value of advertising, the other
Redwood merchants have caught
on, and the people of Redwood
county know that the old merch.
ants are on earth a second time ano
are there with the goods and te
stay.
Mr.. Peterson has sold the Reveille
to Mr.. L. L. Thompson, who form
erly published paper in Iowa, anG
who also is an attorney. Brother
Peterson said that life is too short
for man to run newspaper and {
| dry goods business at the same
time. and having decided to sci
either business with the first op

THE WALLACE FAMILY
LIKES ARIZONA BEST
Mesates Return From Extended Trip
To Old Home in Ohio.

Mr. and Mrs. David Wallace and two
children returned home last week from
an extended visit to their old nome in
Wilmington, Ohio, where they spent
several weeks visiting relatives and
| friends.
While in Wilmington, Mr.. and Mrs.
Wallace were present at a family re-
union of relatives of Mr.. Wallace, at
which 125 were assembled, this being
in the form Of a picnic. BY this means
they were enabled to meet many whom
they would not have seen otherwise.
The affair was most enjoyable, and re-
mneisences of other days helped to
make the occasion one long to be re-
Imembered by all there Eleven days
twere spent by the visitors in calling
on immediate kinsfolk, a day being
given to each.
They found a great change between
the climate there, and what they had
left in the west, the former. of course.
being much cooler. so much so that
they were compelled to wear heavy
clothing nearly all of the time. Much
rain fell shortly after their arrival,
which brought cooler weather with 1t.
Previous to this however, dry weather
had prevailed there to such an extent
that it was estimated that many of
the farmers would only realize about a
third Of crop. Mr.. Wallace told them
that this was quite different from Ari-
IONA farming. as here the water was
simply turned on the crops when need
ed. and rains did not have to be de-
pended upon.
After this delightful visit in Will
mington, Mr.. and Mrs. Wallace then
proceeded to the latter's old home in
Kansas. and there. they were the
guests of relatives and friends for
sometime. In the Sunflower state. the
weather was somewhat similar to the
Salt River valley summers.
On the whole. they spent one of the
most enjoyable summers that has been
their lot to spend for years. and they
consider that they were well paid for
taking such a long trip and being alb
sent from home duties. for the pur
pose of once more being among their
kinsmen

TRIP AROUND THE WORLD
"The Clansman's" TranscontinentaI
Season Will Open Globe
Trottinq Tour.

"The Clansmanis" forthcoming trip
to the Pacific coast will be much I'M
like the usual theatrical setting forth,
for it will inaugurate a three years
trip around the world unequalled in
theatrical annals. Manager George H.
Brennan has notified the players to
arrange their affairs with a view to
being absent from the Great White
Way until the summer of 1911.
The actors, it is true. will have a
day in New York City next spring. but
it will be merely twenty-four hours
en- passage from the American tour to
! the trip abroad. They will arrive in
New York May &c. and will set sail
for Southampton May 81. Opening in
London the second week of June, they
will spend the summer and autumn
playing the principal theatres of the
British Isles.
The year 1910 will be devoted to the
English speaking C communities of
South Africa, the East Indies and Aus
tralia. The Philippines undoubtedly
will be visited. and possibly Shanghai,
Hangkong and Japan. 1t is predicted
that THE Clansman' will be as warm
ly welcomed in the Antipodean white
communities as the visits of the Amer
lean batleship flee. Those familiar
with the play say it will help greatly
to cement and strengthen the Ameri-
can-Australian understanding.
