Civic Trade Tour
TOCover ESQ Miles
Redwood Falls to Be First Stop
in Tour of Civic and Com
merce Association
GUESTS HERE MAY 81
Train of Twelve Cars To Garry
Minneapolis People Through
Big Territory

Redwood Falls will be host
May 81 to the members of the
Minneapolis Civic and Commerce
Association who will make an
extended trip through the terri
tory in which Minneapolis COM
petes with more distant cities.
In speaking of the proposed tour
the Minneapolis Journal says:
"The first trade extension trip
of the Minneapolis Civic and
Commerce association for the
year 1915 will begin Monday
night, May 81, lasting until June
5. 1t will cover $50 miles and
make 81 towns and cities in
southern and southwestern Min
nesota. Subject to some change
or Encouragement of the last
three days of the trip, the timer
airy announced Monday by the
committee on trade extension.
The rails of the Minneapolis &
ST. Louis, Rock Island, Omaha,
Chicago & North Western and
Milwaukee roads will be used.
Redwood Falls will be the
first important stop after which
the trip will extend as far into
South Dakota as Watertown and
thence to Luverne, MINI. There
after it probably will take in
New Ulm and Albert Lea, reach
ing the latter city Friday, and
returning over the Minneapolis
& ST. Louis.
Fifty reservations already
have been made, although the
circular to members announcing
the trip has not yet been issued.
The tour will cover country in
which Minneapolis completes
with Milwaukee, Chicago amidst.
Louis. It is expected that a
l2-car, vestibuled train will be
necessary Liberal reservation
is expected because the terri
tory to be traversed is an in
viting field for business men in
every line.
Luther H. Harrington is
chairman of the committee and
j. G. Van Doom will be in direct
charge"

Two Counties Go
Dry Under Option
Lyon and Kanabec Hold the
First Elections Since Law
Was Made
RED WING STILL WET
Brewers Association May Bring
Suit to Test Validity of
the Act

County Option proved the nee
essary weapon to wipe out the
saloons in the two Minnesota
counties where the question was
voted upon Monday. In the first
elections held under the law
Lyon and Kanabec counties went
dry by overwhelming majorities.
In Lyon County the vote from
II of the 80 precincts was 1869
to GA, indicating a more than
2 to l majority. In II of the
Is precincts in Kanabec County
heard from the vote was 760 to
281.
Red Wing, the only city vot-
ing Monday under local option,
remained wet by 260 votes, a
decrease in the license majority
of about seventy-five votes from
a year ago. The vote was 1893
to IT'S. Anti-saloon League men,
bers predict that when County
Option is voted upon in Good
hue County the twenty-one
saloons in Red Wing will be
voted out. Petitions will be cir
culated there soon.
Dry Majorities Doubled
Marshall and Tracy, the two
largest towns in Lyon county,
both Of which went dry for the
first time at the election April
6, three weeks ago, almost
doubled their dry majorities.
Cottonwood in Lyon county,
which has been dry for ten
years, recorded only Is votes
against legislating out the sa-
looms in the rest of the county,
while 102 votes were cast against
saloons.
Brewers May Fight
A test of the constitutionality
of the law is expected, following
the elections Monday. 1t is said
that the Minnesota Brewers As
ISOLATION will bring suit to test
the validity of the act on the
grounds that it gives legisla-
tive power to the voters of the
county. One Of the county cleo
lions will be the basis for the
test suit, it is thought. In other
states, where the law has been
tested in the courts it has been
found to be constitutional.-Min-
neapolis Tribune.
The count for Lyon County at
three o'clock gave 1900 votes for
the Punishment of saloons and
800 in favor of them. This count
was practically complete.

Banner Year for
Redwood Church
Presbyterian Church Has The
Largest Year in History;
lilo New Members

The local Presbyterian Church
has had a banner year, the larg-
est growth in membership with
in the history of the church be-
ing one of the features of this
profitable and prosperous year.
Last Sunday four new men,
bers were added to the church
roster, " aking one hundred ten
new members who have joined
during the past winter. This is
a remarkable growth in member
ship and is a source of satisfac-
ticn to all the friends of the
church. This increase is more
than twice as many as any 9TH
er church in the same Presby-
terry, and more than any other
Presbyterian Church in the
state.
The Woman's Missionary So
ciety has also made a record dur
ing the past year, coming with
in $40 of having contributed the
largest sum of any society in the
Presbytery. The society having
made the largest contribution
had more than twice as many
members as the Redwood Falls
society.
Rev. VIM. Jobusch and John
Colville returned last week from
attending Presbytery at Lu-
verne, Mrs. VIM. Rosendahl at
tended the meeting of the Pres
byterial Missionary Societies at
Blue Earth and Miss Matilda
Jensen attended the Sunday
School convention at Brainard.
All delegates report the various
branches of church work to be
in thriving condition. Reports
from the three delegates were
read at the morning service Sun
day.

for the remainder of this week
at least. The case of Carl Wendt
VS.. Christensen and Meyer was
being tried as The Gazette went
to press and will probably go to
the jury this morning.
The two delinquent tax cases
in which the Winona and St.
Peter Railroad Company is the
delinquent, were continued to
next term. These cases have
been on the calendar since 1911 !;
like the poor, they are ever with
us, and unless the fates are kind,
will continue to be for the next
century or SO.
Several cases have been set
aside for trial by court during
the present term if time permits.
These include the Lindeman VS..
Dahms case, the three divorce
cases, Jennie Neuschwander VS..
Herman Dahms, and the Som
merville VS.. Crimmins case.
The Allison-Richey Land Co
VS.. Fred Kluge case will come
up for trial by jury as will the
cases of Becker County Bank VS..
Theodore Simensen, the State of
Minnesota VS.. Ed. Schenk, and
the State of Minnesota VS.. Lewis

The case of Chas. w. Dietrich
against Ella Walters was settled
and dismissed; the case of w.
L. keogan VS.. Frank and John
Mccartney was continued by
consent to the next term as was
the case of Myrtle E. Clements

reaot.r damages from Jacob and
Charley Johnson.
The case of Martin w. Sean
lon VS.. Fred. H. Aldrich to col
lect money for an alleged MS

siderable attention last week. A
verdict was brought in for the
defendant of no cause OF action.
The case Of the estate OF
Frank Masek, deceased, which
had been appealed from the al
lowance of will by the judge Of
probate, was before the jury

fate was still unlearned.
Four indictments were
brought in by the grand jury
as follows: the State of Mime

Judge A. r. A. Laudon was ap-

dictment. The court sustained
the demurrer and the defend
ant was dismissed and released
from custody.

Class of 1915 Seen
in aaron Boggs"
Strong Presentation Given BY
High School Seniors at Ar
mory Friday Night
MISS HOSMER is COACH
Boys and Girls Give Typical Pic
lures of Student Life in Co.
Educational College

"Aaron Boggs, Freshman"
was the classy little drama of
college life presented by the
Seniors Of the Redwood Falls
high school at the Armory last
Friday evening. The play was
admirably suited to amateur
work, contained many clever
lines and touches Of comedy and
proved an excellent organ for
youthful genius. Miss Alice Hos
mer of the high school faculty,
directed and managed the pres
entation and it's distinct success
was due in large part to her abil-
ity as a leader and her dramatic
4 judgment.
Roger Dolliff, in the title role,
was a real JOY to the audience,
Rogers chief charm being his
absolute naturalness. His lines
were read with ease and the
business being a "rube" fresh
man given with an aWkwardness
that showed really finished work.
Everything Roger did made an
appeal to his audience even to
the jaunty wearing of the red
necktie.
Miss Wilma Ashford, as
Aaron's opposite, the waitress
who aimed to be a perfect lady.
had the most difficult role and
did some excellent character
work in presenting the quick
tempered and quick-witted serv-
ing girl who knew how to out
wit the clever Seniors and to win
back her Aaron after he was APP
parently lost to her through the
enticements of the college belle.
Oliver Steele as Happy jim
ME Jameson, acted exactly as
all his acquaintance expect him
to act at Carleton next year
out for q good time and having
it, susceptible to every pair Of
feminine brown eyes, and such
a good fellow" that all his>col-
lege mates adored him. That
Happy forgot the girl back home
was really not remarkable con-
sidering the 4many attractions
of Cherry Carruthers, she of the
changeable heart, who was most
realistically portrayed by Miss
Eva HenZe.
The other parts we're taken by
Bernard Rice who acted the
snobby fraternity fiend admir-
ably, Wallace Stewart who &C
ted the politician as one would
expect his fathers son to act it,
James Darrell, Floyd Chapman,
Paul Lindeman and Albert Mel
Ike, Arthur Reynolds and 1ngolf
Stensvad, were silent partners
in the company and added much
to the beauty Of the production
by their graceful way of stand
ing round and keeping a digni-
fled silence.
The two types of boarding
house keepers were we'll char
acterized by Frieda Page and
Genevieve Huske, both doing
some excellent character work.
Nan Hunter, Mayme Lauter-
bach, and Josephine Lutz made
a charming trio of real college
girls and Miss Lydia Bopes was
| a very sweet and winsome vaude-
vile queen.
Between the acts the audience
was entertained by vocal solo
by Miss Eunice Vale, a piano
solo by Miss Josephine Lutz and
a whistling solo by Miss Ellen
Horn who captivated the audi
ence by her beautiful rendition
F.! of Mendelsohn's Spring Song.
