MILLER-The license question will not
come up hero ut the city election April
20 the saloon men having failed to petit
ton for a vote on the proposition. Tn
o went dry last year by q large ma
jority and those favoring saloons saw no
hope OF winning out this spring. TIL
election will not be without interest, how
ever, as H. ]. Bushfeld has already pre-
sented his petition as a candidate for
mayor, and a petition is out and being
literally signed asking 8. v. Christ, the
present incumbent, to run again. There
will be contests for aldermanic positions,
also.

q farm in Jackson formerly Stanley

milking IA COWS, n figures that up to
March /, Of this year. his income from
the herd, not counting the cost Of keep
ing the animals, amounted to an aggre-
gate of H,013.6. The cream sold during
the period stated brought him A26.05
cream and butter used. SIS; sale Of II
calves at an average OF $50 per head, $50.

held by local baseball enthusiasts q re-
port was made by a committee appointed
1t a previous meeting to solicit subsorip-
tons to a fund for the support of a base
ball cam. The committee reported that
. good sum already had been subscribed
and that enough additional money was In
sight to assure the placing OF a team in
the field for the coming season.

tered the Aberdeen National bank, of this
city, and deposited on the counter in
front OF tie ~teller's window a salt sack

tain zoos dimes-$2OO. 80. The man had

! PUKWANA-At their April meeting the
I county commissioners will take steps to
put a stock of fish In Red lake, a fine
body OF water near here. The kin of fish
has not yet been determined. but they
will be of a variety suitable to the water
Of the lake. 1t is probable that following
the stocking of the lake all fishing will
be prohibited for at least two years in
order to permit the fish to grow.
! IROQUOIS-Iroquois will become a dry
town at 9 I o'clock on the evening of Tune
30. This Is due to the fact that those
favoring license were unable to secure the
signatures of the necessary number of
freeholders to a petition asking that the
license question be submitted 10 the voters
at the annual city election in April. This
shows that sentiment is against the grant,
ing Of licenses this year.
