DISTRICT
COURT CASES
Ole Landro Secures s12,5oo Verdict
Against the Great Northern
Railroad Company.

District Court convened again on
Monday and the first case to be taken
up was the personal injury suit of Ole
Landro VS.. The Great Northern Rail-
way Company. Mr.. Landro was rep
resented by attorneys G. Halvorson, of
Thief River Falls, julius j. Olson, of
Warren, and Charles Loring, of Crook
ston. The company's attorney was ].
D. Sullivan. The case was tried about
a year ago by Attorney Halvorson,
when the plaintiff secured a verdict
of $500, but the company appealed
to the supreme court and new trial
was ordered. The accident TO Mr.
Landro happened on Feb. 16, 1909,
when he as passenger was riding on
the train from Ardock to Grafton, N.
d. A broken rail derailed the coaches
causing the passengers to be consider
ably shaken up. Mr.. Landro receiv-
ing injuries which apparently make
him a cripple for life and cause great
bodily suffering. The sacro-iliac Joint
located near the base of the spine, is
the part supposed to have been iniur-
ed and six doctors were present at the
trial giving expert testimony for the
railway company and three for the
plaintiff. Charles Loring conducted
the examination of witnesses on be-
half of the plaintiff and julius J. Oh
son made the closing argument, his eff
fort being both able and eloquent. Mr..
Sullivan handled the case for the
company with great skill. Tive. days
were occupied in trying the case. The
jury returned verdict of s12,50O for
the plaintiff, almost doubling the first
verdict.
Another personal injury case
against the Great Northern railway
was brought by R. G. Marlette, of Ar
gyle. He had walked Off the depot
platform at Warren and sustained a
| sprained ankle. His attorneys were
/; 3. A. Brekke and W. A. Schultz, of Ar
gyle. The jury returned verdict il
favor of the railway company.
The case of J. J. Sutton VS.. the
Great Northern railway was settled by
the payment of 1915 to Mr.. Sutton.
Other cases that have been tried al
this term of court are:
John P. Lundin VS.. L. B. Schafel
land wife. Jury returned verdict fol

A Neighborly Visit.

The writer went to Webster Satur-
day morning to acquire at first hands q
little information regarding their great
combination auction sale and market
day. This, in brief, was copy of the
market day scheme put up by Groton
frequently in times past together with
an auction which took in every form of
saleable property.
Auctioneer Lynde was in charge of
the whole business, looking after the
bargains offered by the individual mer-
chants, and getting out the advertising
matter. The bargain sheet consisted
of a full sheet poster printed on both
sides, and of which $500 copies were
issued. The weather was not the best,
and seeding was at its height, and a
large crowd was not anticipated. We
left before the real circus commenced,
but stayed long enough to discover
that Auctioneer Lynde is regarded as a
valuable live wire by his fellow towns
men.
Lester Kranhold was there, busy as
could be in the big roomy garage, act
ing as though hard work was pleas
ant pastime for him.

new Opera House and other structures

The attendance given the musical
entertainment and program put on by

been nor as it would have been had the
treat been more generally advertised.

We understand that our sister city of
Webster, which by the way, with the
exception of Sisseton, is one of the
best cities in this part of the state,
will soon have a $50, 900 opera house.
Good for Webster! This magnificent
addition to the city is the result of the
efforts of Webster's Commercial club,
and shows what men can accomplish
when united in action. Sisseton is
sadly in need of large and up-to-date
opera house, and why should we not
have it? No one will gainsay the fact
thai Sisseton with her 100 or 1900
inhabitants is the best city of its size
in the state. She has twenty miles of
farming community tributary to her.
that for beauty and productiveness
cannot be excelIed by any place on
earth. She has one of the leading
schools in the state, five churches;
three banks with over $500, 900 on
deposit; some of the largest mercan-
tile establishments in the state. stores
employing as many as 33 clerks; and
with her eleven elevators, large -four
mill, five lumber yards and numerous
other enterprises she does greater
volume of business than any other city
in the state twice its size and has made
the thirty seven miles of track between
her and Milbank the busiest thirty
seven miles of track owned by the
Milwaukee system Then we say
why should not Sisseton have an opera
house equal to any in the state. She
should, could and would, if she had
live commercial club to start the ball
rolling. So let us get together and
organize such club first and then let
the world know the fact that Sisseton
is the best city of its size in the state,
Aberdeen not excepted. What doth it
profit man to light candle and set
it under bushel basket? Nothing.
So what doth it profit Sisseton to be
the best city of its size in the state if
we do not let people know it. Nothing
Let us have Commercial club and let
US get together and boost. Dean

THE ANDALUSIAN PLAINS.
they Remind the American Traveller 81
the Western Prairies.

To traverse the great plains Of
Andalusia is not only to travel
through an exceedingly interesting
and characteristic part of Spain, but
to receive an impression, at least
from a distance, of the American
prairies as they formerly were.
For miles and miles on either side
of the Gu%adalquivir (Which, for all
its romantic name, is a very muddy
Stream) the country stretches away
into a faint blue haze of distant
hills, with the foreground and mid
die distance full of herds of horses,
mules and cattle, feeding slowly or
lying at ease in the long grass and
low, gorselike scrub.
The wide and lengthy tracts Of
grass country, the immense herds
and the mounted cowboys combine,
says the Wide World, to present an
aspect which seems to belong much
more to America than 70 Europe,
On closer inspection, of course, this
illusion is dispelled.
For example, the horses, instead
of having ordinary foals at foot,
have mule foals, and interspersed
among the horses and cattle are
herds Of mules, with occasionally a
few donkeys. Moreover, near the
alquerias or farms will be seen
droves of pigs of a dull red color,
hocks of goats and in some places
merino sheep.
Spain, especially on these plains,
is a country Of magnificent sunsets.
Words fail absolutely to describe
the glories Of the evening sky.
Silent and statuesque against the
distant glow enc see silhouetted
perhaps a mounted herdsman--s
brooding figure m~otionless and grim
--or on the rivers bank a black
bull standing dark against the rose.
ate sky.
Again in the moonlight M may
descry the faint and dusky forms Of
feeding cattle, the moonlight now
and again catching on a cleaning
horn. The silence, broken by the
faint lowing of distant kline or the
weird cry Of some night bird, gives
an enhanced beauty to a wonderful
scene not easily forgotten.
