Fney general has ruled that when a
house becomes vacant by the remov-
al OF the owner or occupant, and
such absence extends over a greater
period than thirty days, even though
furniture and furnishings remain
in the house, it is vacant. The in
sured in order to protect himself
must have vacancy permit attached
to his policy to cover the hazard.
Some of the friends of Congress
man A. j. Volstead are urging him
to allow the use of his name as a
candidate for governor, says the
Tracy Trumpet. He has not given his
consent and we trust he may not do
SO. Mr.. Volstead is 'giving the sew
enth district excellent service as con-
gresham and his constituents are
satisfied. We fear some Interior
motives prompt such actions on the
part Of those who are urging, this
movement.

Here is the accurate definition for
an automobile which Bob Burdette
gives: THE automobile is a large
iron and rubber contrivance for
transforming gasoline into speed,
luxury, excitement and obituaries.
1t consists of handsome leather
upholstered carriage body mounted
on fat rubber tired wheels and con-
tanning gizzard full of machinery
suffering from various ailments. 1t
is the speediest and most stylish
form of transportation known. It
has run oyer 1000 miles an hour and
costs $1,000 per minute. 1t can trans
port seven people from the front
porch on the police station, the

Springfield Advance: On Satur-
day night party gained forcible
entrance to the Office at Bingham
Bros. elevator and stole base ball re-
gala belonging to E. j. Prahl to the
value of about $40. Suspicion rests
upon young man who had been
staying in town the past several
months and who on Sunday after
noon left town, taking with him
grip in which it is supposed the stol-
en- goods were secreted. 1t is under
stood the grip has since been located
at Sanborn and an examination made
which revealed the contents intact.
The party who left the grip. at the
baggage room left orders with the
baggageman before departing for
an Iowa city, to forward it to that
address, which request will be com.
piled with, but as soon as the party
calls for it an arrest will.be made.
eAkeley Tribune: Iron ore has
been discovered on a farm a mile
and half southwest Of Wadena ac-
cording to the press reports. When
placed under dip needle the speci-
mems defecte ed it 35 degrees, show
that there was goodly amount of
iron in the ore. The rock contain
ing the iron was picked up on high
piece of ground and whether it is
float deposited in the glacial period
or whether there is deposit of the
ore on the land is matter of specu-
lation. Considering the fact that
iron is being found in different
places not far from this city, it
is highly probable that there is a de-
post in this vicinity. Further in
vestigations are being made. Long
Prairie papers state that iron has al
so heen discovered in the vicinity of
Browerville and that options on the
lands are being sold at 500 per acre.
