No Change on Branch.

Browns Valley Tribune-A short
time ago a petition was circulated
here and at other points on the Valley
branch, asking for a. hearing before
the Railway and Warehouse Commits
sion in the matter of changing the
train service on this branch. It is
presumed that the petition was cir
culated at the instance of the railway
company. However, it was not very
generally signed. ..-. l..
A remonstrance was hurriedly pre-
pared and circulated here and at
Beardsley, protesting in strong terms
against again opening up this matter
It was signed by practically all the
business interests of both towns, and
forwarded to Sam Y. Gordon at st.
Paul, who presented the same to the
Commission. The Commission, hav-
ing had two hearings on the matter,
and having been sustained in all the
state courts, evidently thought the
people had been put to enough ex-
pense in this case, and so denied the
petition for hearing.
People here are much pleased over
the action of the individual members
of the Commission, and are not slow
in expressing their appreciation.
Now then, if the Great Northern
officials will only make a little effort
in the right direction, the earning
capacity Of this road can be greatly
increased For one thing, have a
sleeper attached and run through to
Browns Valley or set out at Morris
this is something that would be great
ly appreciated and literally patron
lied.
Let's try and get a sleeper!

Ortonville Has Big Fire.

The three-story brick building oc-
cupied by the M. NJ. Johnson Furi-
ture company at Ortonville was COM
pletely destroyed by fire, which
threatened adjoining property valued
at upwards of 100000, last Thurs
day afternoon, causing a loss estima-
ted at $4,000. The building, erected
in 1902, was one of the largest in the
city: 1t is thought the fire originated
from a defective chimney. The high
wind on that day made it difficult for
the fire department to combat the
flames and the efforts of the organiza-
ton were directed toward saving ad-
Joining property. ~ ~ {: ..
