Comments on Recent Matters.

Wedgefeld, March 7.-About one
year ago, or probably less, we were
hearing a lot about good roads. and
the roads then were in fairly good
condition. Now, while they are all
In the worst condition in years, very
little is heing said about them.
Some who opposed the bond issue
made it very plain that we had
enough money to give us good roads.
If such was the case why not make a
new start, or is an effort on foot ia
use such funds for other PURPOSES.
1t seems from the number who ap-
plied for the position as rural DO
llceman that we have quite a number
of good policemen in the county. and
IL Is hoped those selected are efficient
men. The territory seems large,
though, for three men to cover.
If the blind tigers could be put out
OF business, it would put an end to
~ VI iiO'S, CNS' throughout the COQn-
ty.
One Of the greatest nuisances i'm
the county, I guess and one that de-
moralizes labor most, is gambling.
and yet those who should set the ex-
ample for good, are found wanting.
The crap shooters, playing for their
nickels are rounded up on the out
skirts Of the town, while those higher
up are left unmolested.

BLIND TIGER CASES CONTINUE.
Every Case Results i'm COnyicti0n--
Only one Case Heard Thursday
Morning.

The cases against the blind tigers
who were arrested Tuesday after
noon and Wednesday morning are
still going ON, something like twenty
cases having been heard up to the
/ present time with almost that many
more TO be heard. Every case has
resulted in conviction. where the
defendants were tried with a Jury or
without one and whether or not they
We're represented by attorneys.
Thursday morning only one case
was taken up. This was the case
against Eliza Farmer. She was rep
resented by Geo. d. Levy, while r. D..
Epps acted on behalf Of the city, TAX
Ing the pace Of Mr.. j. III. Clifton who
was called to Columbia to attend the
meeting Of the committee to investi-
gate the old dispensary winding-up
commission. There was only one
charge against the Farmer woman
and this resulted in a conviction, the
jury having returned a verdict to
this effect.
The evidence In the case was prac-
tically the same as 1t was In the 9TH
er cases already tried Eliza claim
ed that she did not sell the LIQUOR
while the detective stated that he had
bought II from her. Officer McKagen
testified to having sent the detective to
the house who brought the whiskey
to him after he left the house.
The cases Wednesday afternoon
which were tried all resulted in con-
victions. Those who had already
been tried in the morning were also
sentenced. Lille Holman was rep
resented by L. Il. Wood and the city
was represented by j. H. Clifton. Lii
lie and the detective corroborated
| each other In all details except the
selling Of the liquor. The case took
up the greater part Of the afternoon
and no other jury cases were taken
up.
The sentences imposed upon those
convicted up to this morning were as
follows:
Reece James. who asked that he
be not spoken of as a notorious blind
tiger. was given t120 or 120 days on
his four cases. to which he had plead

Back From Sweden.

Nels Lind returned from his trip
to Sweden last Monday night, ac-
companied by a brother, Oscar Lind,
who expects to make his home at
Willmar. They came across the At
lantic on the steamer Mauritania,
one day later than the Inflated IT,
tanic. The people on board Maure-
tania heard Of the catastrophe by
wireless telegraphy soon after it hap
pened, and were kept as we'll, if not
better, Informed on developments as
the people on land.
Mr.. Nils Lind left Willmar last
November, and since that time has
been visiting with his aged parents,
81 and " years of age, who live on
the estate Of Vannberga in the parish
Of Vinsl0f. The station of Vinsl0f
is located halfway between Kristian-
stad and Hesselholm; on the railroad
that is known by the names of these
two towns. Returning after an alb
sence Of "a years, Mr.. Lind found the
old home station much improved, a
number Of modern residences and
buildings having been erected. The
conditions among the common peo-
ole has also improved. There is a
tendency to sell off the great estates
and divide them into smaller farms.
Mr.: Lind did not spend much time
at sightseeing, only making a few
5ide-trips to neighboring cities.

AboIishinq Street Stabinu.

The city hay market has been put
in shape for use during the week.
The new idea at Willmar Of prohibit
ing stabling in the streets has been
kindly received by most people, who
are quick to see the advantages both
to the farmers and city in having
certain place to stable the teams and
keep them off the thorofares. Natur-
ally some do not understand the mo-
tive Of the new rule as yet, but we
believe when the new idea has been
tried all will agree that it is good.
The public market and stabing
grounds have been established on the
old mill lot and adjacent property.
Water is provided there for horses,
and toilet arrangements are provid-
ed for men and women. There is no
disposition on the part Of the au-
thorities to unnecessarily annoy any
one, but to improve the city and ac-
recommendations given to everyone
coming to town. The TRIBUNE
would welcome and print signed ex-
pressions from farmers in surround
ing country as to what they think Of
this new rule.
