Death Takes Young Life

The Grim Reaper closed his record
for deaths in Morris during the past
year last Friday when the pale hand
Of death was placed on John Carlton
Lund, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
Lund, and stilled life filled with the
rosy promise of the future. Death
was due to appendicitis.
Deceased was sixteen years Of age,
well liked and popular among his
young school friends. His funeral
was held Tuesday afternoon from the
home and many of his young friends
braved the storm to attend and bring
flowers to be strewn over the casket.
Besides his father and mother he
leaves two sisters and one brother to
mourn his untimely death. Among
those from out of town who attended
the funeral was his uncle, James
Lund, of Minneapolis. a.-

QUIET PREVAILS AS
SALOONS CLOSE OUT
Dry Area Extends from Mime
apolis to Montana-Belgrade
Nearest Wet Point

No flowers or special demonstra-
tions marked the closing of the saloons
in Stevens county last Saturday night
when the new county option law went
into effect and closed the remaining
eleven of the fourteen saloons out
lawed in this county. Three Of them
died in Morris. three at Chokio, three
at Hancock and one each at Alberta
and Donnellly. Two went out in Nor
ris about two weeks ago and one fol-
lowed at Donnelly.
For the first time in the history Of
Morris the local citizenry awoke Mon
day morning to find Old John Barley
corn missing. Today from Mime
apolis to the Montana line there is not
a saloon on the Great Northern rail-
way. It is the greatest continuous
dry distance in the northwest. The
nearest point to Morris where drinks
are sold is at Belgrade, about 45
miles across country, but the most
convenient will be Sauk Centre, a few
miles farther away. Both are in

Gagerl Retires

After ten years continuous service
as station agent for the Great North
ern railway at Alberta, Daniel Gagen
was unceremoniously dismissed from
his post last Saturday morning and is
now man of leisure at his home in
this city. E. D. Glover, of Camp
bell, succeeds Mr.. Gagen. IL
Mr.. Gagen went to Alberta ten
years ago with his family but two
years ago brought his family back
to Morris because of the advantages
offered by the Morris public schools
at that time. He has continued at
Alberta, coming home to spend Sun
days and the holidays with his fam
lily. He feels that he always had
the work of the Alberta station we'll
in hand, and there were no complaints
from the public. When notice came
that his services were no longer re-
quired he naturally looked for an ex-
plantation but nothing of the kind was
offered. He also feels that his un-
ceremonious dismissal at this time of
the year, without explanations, is the
highest form of base ingratitude.

HAMMOND FUNERAL
HALTS CITY WORK
Mayor Jones Issues ProcIama-
ton as Token of Esteem and
Respect to Dead Man

Flags were at 'half-mast and in
many places in Morris business
ceased entirely for the space of
one hour Monday afternoon during
the progress of the funeral of the
late Governor Hammond at St. James.
Governor Hammond was we'll known
and we'll liked in Morris and when the
news of his death came last Thursday
afternoon there was genuine universal
regret. AS the body of the late dis
tinguished visitor to this city was
lowered in the grave at three o'clock
Monday afternoon many people in this
city suspended their activities in re-
spect to his memory.
Governor Hammond died at Clinton,
La, small town thirty miles from
New Orleans to which place he had
gone on business. shortly after the
breakfast hour Thursday morning.
Death was due to apoplexy superin-
duced by ptomaine poisoning. His
body was brought to St. Paul Satur-
day afternoon where it was placed in
the rotunda of the state capital and
where it is estimated $4,000 people
viewed the remains. Governor Ham
mond was the second governor of Min
nesota who died during his term of
office. The first was Gov. John A.
johnson. Both were democrats.
In his proclamation Monday after
noon Mayor Jones paid high tribute
to the memory of Gov. Hammond. He
characterized him as an able orator,
splendid patriot and illustrious citi-
zen. Mayor Jones was on the reception
committee when Gov. Hammond came
to speak at the county fair at which
time he was introduced to a large
gathering by Judge George Beise. The
proclamation issued by Mayor Jones
was as follows ~.
t'Once more the impartial hand of
death has deprived the people of this
City and State of an honored and be-
loved executive.

silence and pathetic dust.
"All patriotic citizens, regardless of
party, mourn his great loss. He was
a distinguished man. learned, cultured
and dignifed; he ornamented the high
Office which he held and administered
with rare intelligence, poise, dignity
and power.
He was an able orator, splendid
patriot and an illustrious citizen.
Only recently he was among us with
his winning personality and his charm
ing manners and we people of this
City feel special loss in his sudden
and untimely death.
THEREFORE, AS token of esteem
and respect from the people of the
City of Morris to the lamented Gov
ernor, whose loss they mourn, l here.
by sincerely request and urge that all
business transactions be suspended anC

Stearns county. The largest dry city
in the United States is Atlanta, Ga,
with a population of 148, 900.
None of the five saloon men who
retire in Morris have announced their
intentions for the future. Each closed
his place in a quiet and orderly man
ners and there were no celebrations or
rioting when the curtain dropped on a
business that has held uninterrupted
sway since before the arrival of the
railroad into Morris. Many saloon
men have come and gone during the
steady progress of the city but it is
not till in late years that high class
morale has been established among
the fraternity. Not in a single in
stance did the voters direct their bal
lots against the men personally. The
growing sentiment against the liquor
traffic, especially amongst the farm
ers who had never before had chance
to voice their sentiments, became so
strong that the excellent personalities
of the saloon men were unable to save
the day. All five of the saloon men
in Morris have many friends among
the vets and drys alike who wish to
see them remain to go into other
lines of business.
