MADISON LAKE PEOPLE HAVE
QUESTION BEFORE THEM.

Specified; Allyn Bros. Will
Have Building Erected of Con.
crete Blocks; Others Are Pre-
pairing to Replace Their Burned
Structures as Soon as Possible.

will carry, as the village needs and
wants such system.
Allyn Bros. Will Build.
Allyn Bros. are hauling gravel for
a new building which they will erect
in the place of their large structure
that burned. They will make it of
concrete blocks similar, to the
garage of the Mankato Auto com.
pany in this city 1t will be made
the width of their general store and
hardware store, the lot where the
furniture store stood being left va
cant. If the water bonds carry, the
firm is said to intend to make the
building two stories high.
Has Purchased Lake House.
James Mape has purchased the
Lake House property, near the de-
pot, and had intended to reopen his
saloon there, but it appears that Mr.
Thompson, the present lessee, has
n five years lease on the property
and does not desire to give it up
for n figure that Mr.. Mape is will
ling to pay. Mr.. Mape has there
fore taken space in Pietch's shoe
store and has reopened his saloon
there.
Larger Building Than Before.
John Brown has decided to re-
build and will put up a larger
building than he had before, build.
ing the full width of his lot. He
will also build of concrete blocks.
Theodore Roemer and the Enges-
ser Brewing company are both
planning on rebuilding, the Peoples
State bank will rebuild, and it is
likely that the coming summer will
see the burned district rebuilt and
presenting better appearance than
ever. With -waterworks and fire
limits ordinance the village will be
in splendid shape.

The correspondent is very sorry
that there are few Kasota peopIe
who do not know how to appreciate
q favor, who are continually throw
ing slurs at good citizens who are
striving to do what is right for
their village and for the future gen.
Grafton. Perhaps they would rather
see their sons gambling and playing
pool than at some better and more
honorable occupation, or perhaps.
they have not stopped to consider
this side of the question. They will
also remember that good is never
done for spite and can only cause
enmity where there is n reverse mo-
tive.
