year has enlivened Barnum's hotel
with his good natured countenance,
left this morning for Senaca, Kansas.
During his stay here he has made
many friends among the travelling

both. He goes to join his family from
whom he has been so long separated,
and if he can persuade his better half
to emigrate, will return this fall. Good

New Potatoes

For the first new potatoes we have
seen or had the good fortune to eat,
this season, we are indebted to our
friend, L. L. West, Esq, in whose
garden they were raised. They were
fine large ones and were dug on June
q. New potatoes in June is not so
bad for a state so far north as Min

course in the late unpleasantness. We
would do the same things over again
only we would do them harder.
The Roorbachers as usual got in
their work, but it is gratifying to
note they did not change the results.
There is no question but that the
wrong men were eliminated at the
eliminating convention that was held
in st. Paul last spring.
If more than 5000 voters in this
county had turned out and voted for
the Stearns county man, the result
would have been --, but they
didn't.
If, during the, strenuosity of the
campaign we have said or done any,
thing that has hurt anybody's feel
ings and they make the proper apol-
ogies, we are willing to forgive them.
1t is regrettable, but it is true that
most political campaigns are won or
lost on fake issues, promises that can
not by any possibility be redeemed,
however willing the promiser may be
to redeem them; and visionary schem-
es, that if realized, would work dis
aster instead of benefit.

Bob Dunn never draws political

DR.. Dubois spoke there Oct. 20, and

stood, Taft 81, Roosevelt 26, Wilson

named Big Hanson, late of Minneap-

down and kicking him into an almost
