The Sunday Morning st. Paul Pho
neer Press contained this story:
'Thc democratic state central com
mittee will have no more Daniel w.
Lawler, the speaker of the German
American alliance. The mandate went
forth. last night that Mr.. Lawler would
not be allowed to speak at Mankato,
according, to one who is close to the
headquarters.
LAWYERS speaking date has been
called off, said the informant, and he
will not speak at Mankato. The legis-
lative candidates from that district
have notified the German American al
lance that if Mr.. Lawler speaks at
MankatO they will withdraw their
names from the ticket, said the men,
Der of the committee.
Both Mr.. Lawler and Julius Mo-
ersch, president of the German American
alliance, who have been speaking to-
gether arrived in st. Paul last night
from Newmarket, Scott county. Mr..
Lawler went Immediately to his home,
and Mr.. MOersch, when seen relative
to the report that Mr.. Lawler would
not be allowed to speak at Mankato,
denied any knowledge of such action.
Did Not Know What Transpired.
"'Of course, / do not know what has
or might have TRANSFERRED said Mr.
Moersch, but | do know that I have
received no communication from any
of the legislative candidates in that
district relative to our speaking dates.
We were to speak at Mankato on the
2Sth, but we could not make it because
ave could not get a hall
"Mr. Moersch said later in the even
ing that he had received communi-
cation from the Mankato branch of
the alliance, but nothing was said
about the reported action Of the leg
islative candidates in that district in
opposing LAWYERS addresses in that
section of the state.
"Mr. Lawler Immediately retired up
on his arrival home and could not be
seen relative to the reported action
of the speakers bureau, but it is be-
lieved that there may be some truth
in the report, as, since the Minneapolis
speech of Mr.. Lawler, last Tuesday
night, there has been feeling that
Mr. Lawler should not be allowed to
continue if it is possible to stop him.
president Moersch declared emphat
ically that the report was a canard,
but still he, could not account for the
fact that arrangements were not made
for the reception of Mr.. Lawler at
Mankato, except that hall could not
be secured. Neither Mr.. Day nor Mr..
Lawler could be reached at a late
hour to explain the situation"

Herman Olson, cashier OF the bank
at Balaton, and L. Redding, cashier. o;
the bank at Lamberton, were in ST.
Peter several days this week for the
purpose of taking preliminary steps
towards organizing a state bank there.
They have looked the field over and
decided that there was an opening for
a third bank there. They propose to
organize under the state laws with a
capital of $4,000. The stock has been
divided into shares of 800 each and
in the few days soliciting of subscrip-
tions they have met with much en-
couragement and now have nearly all
the stock subscribed for. They plan
to have the bank ready for business
by December and are now looking
for suitable location.

w. l.. Sonntag, of the st. Paul Rail
way Promotion company, met with the
citizens who gathered to hear him
discuss the building of the proposed
suburban railroad Monday evening, says
The Elysian Enterprise. The meeting
was organized with C. 0. Galagan as
chairman and w. J.. Washburton secre-
tary. Mr.. Sonntag stated that as
usual the construction of such lines
they would ask for donation of
lieved that the proposition would be
readily accepted when the parties
interested realize the direct benefits
that would result from the building
of the electric line. The survey runs
near the railroad right of way or
wagon roads near Elysian, and
b. r. Swain, S. Il. Austin and
j. w. Root were named as COM
mittee to interview the property own
ers along the proposed route and ask
that contract be accepted by them on
condition that the new road be built
through here. If the right of way is
readily granted the company expect to
have the line in operation by the last
of next year, and the electric cars from
the twin cities to Mankato, will be
run each way every hour Mr.. Sonntag
states that he believes from personal
observation in the east, where he has
built several electric lines, that this
suburban line which is the first to
be built in Minnesota will do much
for the small towns, through which
it will pass, and that Elysan and
neighboring towns will increase in pop
ulation if the line goes through admits
of no doubt.

| The basketball season OH the local
Y. NJ. C. A. floor opened last evening
with a game between the Waterville
high school and North Mankato.
The teams were well matched in size
and started very snappy game. For
the first seven minutes the ball passed
speedily back and forth, neither side
scoring. North Mankato then made
a basket and followed it up with sew
eral more. Throughout the rest of the
game the local team kept things NOV
ing their way.
The Watcrville boys were alert and
active, frequently getting the ball and
starting it towards their goal, but
failing to make connections with the
basket.
The North MankatO boys had some
very good team work and showed ex-
cellent judgment in breaking up any
team work on the part of their oppo-
nents. They guarded close and their
passing of the ball was quick and ac-
curate.
!
The game was exceptional in that
there was not q word of criticism
| from either team. Physical Director
| Allison as referee gave excellent salts
faction. His decisions were prompt and!
decisive, thus eliminating all rough
play.
The Waterville boys showed an ex-
cellent spirit. While the final score
was sc to in favor of North Man
lato, they did not attribute it, as is
so frequently the case, to the poor
refereeing or unfair treatment on the
part, of their. opponents.
The North Mankato lineup for this
season is: Center, Wesley Wachtler;
forwards, Byron =. Ball and Frank
Wachtler; guards, George Caldwell and
Russell Fields; subs, Engrel Nielsen
and George Lundberg. ~

On Tuesday night there was a
most enjoyable hop given by Dr.
Horgan and wife at their ele-
giant home near Fairville. A large
crowd Of young married folks as
we'll as some who intend to be
married, were there. Dancing was
the pleasure OF the night and was
INDUCED in until the late hours
had passed out and the early ones
came in. The supper which was
taken by the ladies in boxes was
greatly enjoyed. When DR.. Hor-
gan announced that he and his
family were soon to move to Okla
homa there was some displeasure
felt for it was realized this would
be their last OF good times at the
doctors.
On the 21st OF this month there
will be a very interesting enter
tainment at Bethel, given by some

Miss Mary Sweeney our popular

Monday. Some hearts were made
glad and some Of our mad at

carriers were very much fatigued
before they got through distrib-
uting all that was sent.
Although Richard Hightower's

A very sad accident happened in
our community last Saturday De.
cember 3rd 1910.
Lawson Mays, one of The leading
men in our community, got his left
arm cut up very badly in a gin
stand, from the effect.of which he
died Sunday morning at two o'clock.
All that medical aid and loving
hands could do was done for him
but too no avail. He will be sadly
missed in his home and in all the
community. He was member OF
the Knights of Pythias, and the
Woodman Of the World. His re-
mains were inferred in the Duty
graveyard Monday afternoon. The
Woodman took charge Of him and
put him away in their regular order.
He leaves a wife, two children,
mother, one sister, four brothers,
and besides host of other relatives
and friends to mourn his death.
He was loved by every body, and
will be greatly missed IN the com.
munity.
As a friend he was kind and &C.
comodating; as son and brouher
he was kind and loving. He was a
kind and atfectionate hrsba I'd, and
so kind and tender with his two
sweet little girls aud loved them so
much.
All is dark within our dwelling.
lonely is our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly,
From this world has passed away
