HOT AT PETERSON
7. T. Ofsthun, Angered at
Charge Made by Minneapolis
Politician, Will Sue

Charged with having received a
large sum of money from Thomas
Frankson, St. Paul real estate man,
which was to be used to get votes in
the recent state primary election.
I. T. Ofsthun, prominent Glenwood
attorney, threatens to bring a suit for
$50, 600 damages against James Pet
erso, Minneapolis rival of Frankson,
and 81 other prominent citizens of
Minneapolis. The men who are to be
made defendants in the expected
suit signed a petition asking that
Frankson be barred as a candidate
for lieutenant governor on the repub
lican ticket alleging that Fraakson
exceeded the expenditures allowed by
law in the campaign. Ofsthun is
we'll known in Stevens counties where
he enjoys high standing in the
estimation of his friends. The
following item relating to the matter
was printed last Friday in the Glen
wood Herald:
Action on the petition to annul
the nomination of Thomas Frank
son, Republican candidate for lieu
tenant governor was delayed until to :
day when Judge H. R. Brill in dis
trict court at St. Paul yesterday
held that there were not sufficient
number of the 80 petitioners in court.
The petition will be heard at 10 a.

the petitioners are in court.

TWO RUNS ON END
WIN FOR NORRIS
Fast Herman Hitters Given Sc
cond Shut-out on Home
Grounds Sunday

In an exciting base ball game be-
tween Morris and Herman on the lat
ter's diamond Sunday afternoon, Man
ager Boyd's champions tanned their
rivals and hung their skins out to
dry with the second shut-out of the
season. 1t was a pitchers battle in
which Berns of the Morris team
struck out seventeen men while
Macy, the Herman find, swelled his
record to twelve. Morris was charged
with one error and Herman had FIVE.
Each side secured three hits. Both
teams gave their pitchers faultless
support and the game demonstrated
that the Independents have recovered
their old style vim and vigor and are
playing in best condition for months.
The story of the game can be told
in few and sweet words. Herman's
share in the proceedings prevented
Morris from scoring till the last half
of the ninth when Kessler, ambled
to bat with sinister gleam
in his lamps. He got a chance at a
base hit after which Kopitzke slipped
one through in the same place, ad-
vancing the feet-footed farmer to
third base and himself landing on Sc
cond with a foxy steal. Grandjean
was the third person up. He spat in
his hands and wrapped his lunch
prongs about the bat like hooks of
steel. He missed the first one over
but the second Vas swatted for two
bases and Kessler and Kopitzke sped
across the plate while silence as thick
as the darkness which is said to have
once overspread Egypt.fell over the
noisy Herman rooter section.
The game progressed as smoothly as
deaf and dumb wedding feast. Not
once during the game were the UNI
lpire,s decisions questioned and those
WhosWitnessed the performance pro-
claim it the standard for baseball ex-
cellence. Kessier, Kopitzke and
Grandjean are the three latest addi-
tions to the local team. They were
recruited from the ranks in the Nor
ris bush leagueF'to fill vacancies, and
the manner in which they are per-
forming puts lots of ginger and pep in
the clouting.
Herman will come here next Sunday
for another game and the lineup will
be about the same as in the last two
games. The teams are evenly matched
| and worthwhile contest is assured.
The game will be played at the fair
grounds diamond and will be called at
the usual hour.

Child will Recover Use of Hand

Nels Olson, bookkeepecr at the
Wells Bros. Hanson store, received
encouraging news from his brother,
Otto, at Cyrus, yesterday when he
was advised that the three-year-old
daughter of Mr.. Olson whose hand
was frightfully lacerated in wringer
attached to a power washer three
weeks ago, will recover the use of
her hand. The child was standing
near the wringer and was warned
several times but at an unguarded
moment slipped her hand into the
rollers. Three of the fingers were
drawn in and the palm of the hand
was split open. 1t was thought at
first that the child would become
permanently crippled but indications
today are that she will fully recover.

WONDERS OF WEST
DR.. and Mrs. George Geenty Go
Up Pixies Peak in Automo-
bile-Busiuess is Quiet

DR.. and Mrs. George Geenty re-
turned the first of the week from
their pleasant trip to Colorado
Springs, Manitou and Cripple Greek
where they spent ten days. Speak
ing of the industrial conditions thru
the west, especially in the Colorado
mining sections. DR.. Geenty says
times are not very rosy. But an op-
timistic feeling prevailed with en-
couragement over prospects,. At
CRIPPLE Creek more gold was being
mined than ever before in the history
of the mining camps. Since DR..
Geenty was there three years ago the
town has slipped into the ury column
and 1876 saloons had closed their
doors, and there was general salts
factioon with the change. --~
At Colorado Springs and Manitou
thousand of tourists were. pouring in
and other thousands were coming in
hopes of benefitting their health.
The cost Of living at these places had
been greatly reduced because of the
competition in trade, condition
brought on by those who came for
health reasons and later opened busi-
ness places with a view of securing
small income to help meet expenses.
DR.. and Mrs. Geenty rode up Pixies
Peek in an automobile. They also
visited Mount Almont, a village en-
joying the distinction of having the
highest altitude in the world. Much
of the mountain climbing was done
with the aid of burrows. Although
the stay in the mountains was brief

most important places of interest and
returned home with beautiful tan
complications. SIT was a grand trip
but do not think that we will visit

PASTORS SPRING
CHICKENS STOLEN
Thieves Garner Fifty Choice
Birds in Raid on Rev. Gam
melien's Pepperton Farm

Fifty choice spring chickens each
weighing about three pounds and
raised especially for a clergyman 8
table, were stolen from the poultry
coup of Rev. W. J. Gammelien in
Pepperton township early Friday
morning. All evidences indicate that
the thieves worked slowly and were
experienced poultry men for they
picked out only the choice young
stock from a flock of several hun
dred birds. The finger OF suspicion
points in the direction of man and
a boy. Rev. Gammelien was not
at home when the birds disappeared.
Rev. Gammelien is one of the pro-
minent poultry raisers in the county
and takes deep interest in poultry.
His speciality is white Wyandottes.
This spring he realized something
over one hundred pullets from his set
tings. Because of the late and cold
spring with continued rains it became
necessary to exercise more than or
.dinary care and part of the time the
chicks were looked after in a vacant
but warm room in the house. Every
member of the family became person
ally interested and devoted more or
less attention till the birds were
moved onto a sandy plot in the yard.
Now half of them are gone and the
other half will be more closely guard
ed. The loss of the birds is felt
keenly and Rev. Gammelien will
leave nothing undone in the way of
endeavoring to discover the identity
of the guilty parties. On the night
the chickens disappeared he was look
ing after farm interests at Bertha but
came home Friday morning and i'm
mediately discovered his loss.

BLACK RUST WILL

Fields West and South of Morris
Stricken-Northern Part of
County Looks Fine

Conditions warranting black rust

when large patches of rust appeared
in the fields west of town. Tuesday
afternoon August Heubner came to
town with samples of grain badly
affected. The grain was taken from
the Anderson fields on the old Stam-
baugh farm three miles west of the
city and showed the stalks whiting.
1t was taken off a field that was pot
ato land last year, where the grain
stands thick and was expected to yield
about twenty bushels per acre. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Huebner the field will
not yield four. A week ago today
Mr.. Huebner examined the same
field and says he found no indications
of rust.

Farmers from Swan Lake who were
in town Tuesday say they have every
reason to feel happy if the weather
continues dry and pleasant. Grain in
general never looked better at this
season of the year, they said. "You
can almost see the corn grow" de-
clared one of them. ''Some more of
this warm weather will insure the
crop next fall" They said they
have just finished harvesting a tre-
mendous crop of the very best kind
of hay. They stated there were
traces of black rust but up to Tues
