Directors Elected

Four directors were elected for period
of three years. Willibald Eibner, J. H.
Langmack and Louis G. Vogel were re-

organized by electing the following
officers: Pres, Jacob Kossner, Jr; Vice.

of per cent was declared.
Prospects Good for Next Year
It was decided at the meeting Of the

running stock matured January 1st to
take paid-up stock. From the number
of loans that were recently made it would
appear that very successful year is
in store for the Association.

Minority Wants A Scrap.

To- t1SCOlAlQS W ICAl, Vic 1A1ilO11Cy PAL W
is getting ready for a regular, old-time
scrap and the coming conference is an
ticipated as warm enc. Fred Wheaton
seems to be a favorite candidate, but he
will have plenty of opposition. Sen.
S. B. Nelson of Luverne, Sen. James A.
Carley of Plainview, C. M. King Of Deer
River, and Tics Dryer of Minneapolis
all are flirting with possibilities. Sen.
Nielsen is said to be a clean-cut business
man who knows the value of advertising,
but he is no stump speaker. It is said
he makes friends readily and if he con-
ducts his campaign as he does his mer-
camille business, he'd net have much
difficulty getting himself favorably known
all over the state. Wheaton is we'll
known already and in this respect has
the inside track.
Leader Is Lacking.
Sclmshl, Frankscn and others are
mentioned by Burnquist's critics but as
yet no che seems to have seen the "Star
in the East" and they are all waiting
with more or less Impotence as the case
may be for leader to appear.
Snyder Too Previous.
While Fred Snyder is getting a good
deal of encouragement from his friends
on his candidacy for Sem Knute B.,
Nelson's place.. the general comment
offered is that he should have waited for
Nelson to declare himself. It is common
belief that Nelson must and will accept
another term. SIS .s....- e.$zss.
c.. M. Andrist made such an excellent
run for Lieutenant Governor in the last
campaign that he is considered an ex-
cellent number for some place on the
Democratic ticket. Some talk of him
for Secretary of State and others as Rep
resentative in Congress. ...t4
A new possibility for Treasurer is
Douglas Greeley, banker: Of Virginia;
MINI. They say he will make good
race against Rines who undoubtedly
: will be the Republican nominee to sue
coed himself.
The present state auditor, J, a. o.
Preus Is undecided yet as to whether
he'd better announce himself as can
didate to oppose Ernest Lundeen Or
seek another term in his present posi-
ton. w. D. Washburn has thrown a
hammer into the gears Of the machine
that planned to use Preus against Lun-
deem and it now looks as tho there might
be still otEer candidates besides Senator
Campbell, Rep. Washburn and Preus
fer the job Of representative from the
Fifth district.
TIE candidates for minor Offices are
also beginning to be heard from. Rep.
Indrehus of Foley wants job on the
Railway and Warehouse commission
The term of Fred Putnam OF Red Wing
expires this month and it is this place
the Democrats hope to fill.

Main Reservoir Leaks

q
# It was reported that the main water
reservoir leaks at several places and that
it would become necessary to water
proof it. This matter was also considered
at length and in the course Of the dis
cussion it developed that the expense in
Cured for this work would approximate
about 81 900. The matter was disposed
of by referring it to tie proper sommittee
with instructions to get into touch with
concerns which make speciality of this
kind of work and report back to the

The city cemetery committee reported
that the roof Of the chapel recently

Adolph Klause's status in the police
department, like Banquo's ghost will not
down, and was the subject of some more
discussion at the regular monthly meet
ing of the city council held last Wednes-
day evening. The matter was brought
up by councillor Carl Aufderheide. who.
wanted to know what if anything had
been done to get matters satisfactorily adj
.justed. Pres. Krook stated that the
matter would be taken up and discussed
at special meeting called for that
purpose. This meeting was held Thurs
day evening and the matter discussed
at considerable length, but without
getting it finally disposed of. At the
latter meeting Klause was not re-instated,
something that he has been demanding
for some time, but instead he agreed to
ask for another three months leave of
absence. This will no doubt be granted

settled that the -;tv will not assume any

at the regular meeting was the erection
of a freproof building about 18 x %
feet at an approximate cost Of $4,000
to house the new pump at the new city
ellrecently completed in North German

some length and finally disposed Of by
instructing the electric light and water
committee to secure sketches Of the kind
Of pump house desired. The building
IS to be ef the dimensions hereinbefore
stated and is to be surmounted by a
'cupola measuring 80 feet floor
to the crest which will house apparatus

Of accident or if repairs should become

ton will be proceeded with as soon as
the balance Of the material arrives.

"a bird in the hand is worth two in

This in connection with the boom for
Judge Stanton for Governor, In other
words, they feel that Judge Stanton had
better hold on to the job he's got and not
give it up in the expectation of getting
another. They also say his candidacy
would not he fair to other Democrats
who have the itch for office, since the
voters would figure that he should be
salts fed with the bench job. Others
there are who openly declare that STAN
tons boom is nothing more or less than
a scEeme CT Republicans who want to
make tie, Democrats their catspaW.
There are { mcng Republicans number
wLo would so to almost any lengths to
make trouble for the present admins
tration. Judge Stsntcn's present office
is non-partisan, of course, but he is a
Democrat just the same and account is
taken of this in counting noses.

Or. Sheppard I. Franz, ST. 9Iiza-

need for young women skilled in the
treatment OF nervous diseases, and
it promises to grow.
Many universities now offer courses
that will prepare women for ship
craftsmen, as it is largely to them
the government must look to supply
the increasing demand. Other new
openings for women include those
