About twenty two neighbors met
at the homes Of b. B. Scheetz and
John Xaver Tuesday evening and
went in a body to call on Mr.. and
Mrs. Anthony Molter, Sr. to bid then,
good-bve and wish them a pleasant
sojourn in the Southland for which
they left Wednesday morning. Af-
ter paying their compliments to this
couple and increasing their forces
by the addition of several to their
party, they dropped upon the family
Of John Bolinger, where they found
themselves wholly unexpected by the
whole family. This did not alter their
enthusiasm in the least and they
spent a most enjoyable evening here.
Monday evening the same group
spent the evening at J. e. Bergman &
in the same way. The Immediate
cause of these gatherings is the visit
in this city of Anna and Lawrenc.
Schaal and the people visited are
old time friends of their mother.

MARSHALL COUNTY
WILL Be WET MARCH 4
New Saloon Bill Passed By Democratic
Majority Is Signed By Governor
Marshall Today And Becomes Law
At Once.

Governor Marshall signed the new
township and city option bill Monday
and as a resul. Marshall county be-
comes "wet" on March 4 next.
The passage OF this law will come
as a surprise to those temperance
democrats who during the last elec-
tion refused to believe that demo-
cratic legislature would repeal the
county option law. Representative
Adam Wise made fierce attack on
tie county option law just before
the vote was taken which passed
tie measure. He declared that he
was elected by the biggest majority
ever given a representative elected
from this county and that he was
elected to repeal the county option
lawi
This again will be astonishing
news to many, vet all who wished
TO. knew that Mr.. Wise was person
ally and politically opposed to the
county option law.
The provisions of the law are such
that it does not leave "dry" ter
ritory dry until voted wet again,
as justice would distate, but il
automatically makes all territory wet
regardless of the votes taken In
the different counties. The aci
strikes out the word county as tbs
unit and substitutes the words
city, township and townships outside
TIE city limits" as the units. The
legislators could not wait for the
law to go into effect in ordinary
course after the Acts were publish
ed and distributed. as was done
when the county option law was
passed, but made the act take effect
at once, as soon as signed by the
Governor, by adding an emergency
clause
This feature of the law places
again on the temperance people the
burden of securing twenty per cent
of the voters to sign a petition for
an election. where as that burden
In all justice, ought to have been
put upon those desiring saloons
This is the main injustice of the
act, for there are honest differences
as to whether the unit ought to be
the county or the township and city
There is talk of a petition from
Plymouth to the next meeting of the
commissioners to ask for an election
In the city TO see whether we shall
have saloons here or not. 1t is
thought by any that the city would
vote dry if given an opportunity
