A party of strangers representing
capitalists of Fort Wayne. Indiana,
were out in one of Odekirk's autos
last Friday prospecting. They had
heard Of the corn belt and have
been looking over the country along
the Minnesota in Brown, Renville
and Redwood counties. Redwood
county evidently looked good to
them, for we understand that two
of the gentlemen will probably open
offices here in the near future and
make arrangements for getting some
of their eastern clients settled in
this vicinity. That is, provided GER
tain over-zealous competitors here
do not interfere with their plans.
Hugh Peavey authorizes the an
nouncement that he will remove
with his family to Washburn, Wis,
at the end of this week. Having
interested himself in real estate in
that section and having entire con-
fidence in its future prosperity, he
finds it inconvenient to handle his
property from here and will there
fore. become resident of Wash
burn. The Gazette regrets the ne
cessity which takes Mr.. Peavey and
family out of our community. and
commends them to Washburn citi-
zens as every way desirable. Mr..
Peavey believes in doing things for
his town wherever he may be, but
having disposed of his business here
to his father, his interests are else
where and he plans to boost for the
Washburn country from now on.

and G, E. Lafnberton both had bids
in at $34 per month. Kuck & Far
lees bid being $35. The tie was
finally decided by lot, and the con-
tract awarded to the winner, John
