st. James PIaindealer: A petition
has been circulated this week by John

restore trains No. ~ and 73 which op
Grated between here and PipestOne
! No. 70 left ST. James about a. m
going through to Pipestone. Another
train, No. ~, left Pipestone in the
morning and returned here in the even
ing. These trains were largely used
! by travelling men and business men
along the line in the morning. The

Window Reporter: Bad blood which
has cankered in the breast of the eX-
county superintendent of schools since
election time, came to a boiling heat
the other day, and doubtless he regrets
letting his anger get the better of
him, at least his friends do. Don
Savage entered his erstwhile office at
the court house and accused County
Superintendent Koehn of circulating
report that he (Savage) had not
left the records of his office in shape
required by law. Mr.. Koehn did
not deny the charge, and started to
tell Mr.. Savage in what way he had
not complied, when the ex-superin-
tendent assaulted him. cutting a
cash over the eye which he will car
ry many day. There are of course,
several different versions of the story,
but The Reporter has taken pains to
look up all reports and find that the
facts are substantially as stated above
The circumstance is universally to be re-
GREETED, and no doubt Mr.. Savage will
regret it as much as anyone.
