] +. Howard and r.. W. Ziemer report
a very pleasant time at Seaforth
last Saturday night. in connection
with the installation of officers Of
Seaforth lodge of that order.
Sleepy Eye Herald: Conductor

Sunday to take charge Of the pas
senger tran now running from that
city to Mankato On the CORTLAND
Nicollet route. He is succeeded here
| by Conductor CA. Brown, whoyhas
been running on the Sanborn-Ves-
ia branch.
/ F. A. Japs will branch out into
the plumbing game the coming sea
son, having applied for a city license
at the beginning OF the year. His
crew has been putting in, heating
plant for Schleuder's store and is
reconstructing the heating plant for
Jos. Tyson's house which he recently
purchased from 0. w. Mcmillan.
Olivia Times: Gilbert Carruth of
Beaver Falls and brother of Redwood |
and Adolph Brietkreutz Of Beaver
spent few hours in town Friday. |
The Times editor enjoyed half
hour visit with the boys and took
occasion to recall some of the coun-
try dances we enjoyed together,
during our happy boyhood days
down on the farm.
If present plans do not miscarry
some time next month the patrons,
of the refreshment parlor north Of
the postoffice, out of force Of habit
will be saying, Have a beefsteak
Tor perhaps a soup-bone) on me"
For Banker & Dennistoun have rent
ed the building in question for the
purpose of putting in meat market,
and Ruby Kurtz, the meat cutter at
the Mill street market, is to be as
ISOLATED with the firm as manager
of the market. AS the firm are large
buyers of beef cattle. they ought to
be able to furnish good meat and
plenty of it and the stand leased will
certainly be we'll situated for trade.
In response to a petition filed in
district court, asking a judicial or
der authorizing County Auditor Lar
son to enter into a contract with
Mayer Bros. of Mankato for the con-
struction Of judicial ditch No. 5 at
the contract price of So, 665, Judge
Olson last week filed the desired or
der and the auditor drew up the
contract the first of the week. This
is the somewhat unlucky Gold Lines
ditch, which was duly contracted to
be put through and subsequently
abandoned by default, the contrac-
tors adding insult injury by refusing
TO honor the certified check they had ;
filed when the contract was let. The
work will undoubtedly be carried
forward next spring and it is ex-
ceedingly probable that there will
later be something doing as to the ]
forfeited check.
The Gazette went to press last {
Wednesday morning too early to
get exact knowledge of the real is
sue which developed at the second 8
ward polls, and misunderstood the ;
actual conditions. Our statement i
about the defective ballot was /
printed in good faith, but was not {
correct, as we were afterwards in Z
formed that the voter wrote nothing 2
on the ballot. but made a penciled !,
circle and cross over the word mo"
in the license clause, instead of a A
square opposite the same. The
judges counted the same as against :
license, and the subsequent protest
Of the friends Of the license faction
when they found they had lost, was i
entirely out Of order. so far as af- 9
fecting a ballot already counted. B
There now appears no question in !
the matter, except the possibility
that some of the parties to the COM z
pact may get weak in the knees and a
surrender to the opposition pos q
sibility not likely to develop. n n
The annual meeting of the First G
National Bank stockholders develop a. g.
I'd very satisfactory conditions in p
hat corporation, the usual dividend L
being declared and additions made to A
