Sunday, October 10th, will be day
long remembered by members of the
congregations of Rev. E. A. Freth-

of the annual Mission Festival Day
with sessions in the morning, after
noon and evening. The three con-

preached the Festival sermon. A
chorus of mixed voices sang ap-
propriate hymns. The offering to the
Missions, amounting to $1,026.20, was

D. L. Crimmins Better.

Mrs. D. L. Crimmins returned Sun
day from Bismark, N. D., where she
was called by the accident sustained
by Mr.. Crimmins. She states that
he is now making a very good recov-
cry and is fairly comfortable al
though still suffering much incon-
venience and some pain from his in
juries. His arm is still strapped to
his body and he is obliged to lie in
the same position on his back in order
that the healing of the broken ribs
and collar bone may not be retarded.
He is under the care of special nurse
and will be confined to the hospital
for ten days or two weeks longer.
Thus far he has been unable to feed
himself or to help himself in any
way. However, his recovery is re-
markable considering the seriousness
of his injuries and Mrs. Crimmins felt
much encouraged by his condition
when she left the hospital. The IN
stitution to which he was taken is
very large one with splendid facili-
ties.

FIRE
CAUSES HEAVY
Loss OF STOCK
GOODS BADLY DAMAGED BY
SMOKE AND WATER IN WE'D
NESDAY MORNING FIRE
IN STORE HERE.
STARTS IN BASEMENT
FLOOR AND OFFICE AT REAR
ARE BURNED; OTHERWISE
DAMAGE TO BUILDING
is NOT SERIOUS.

The Aune and Thune Clothing Store
here suffered serious damage by fire
early this morning Wednesday,, the
blaze starting in the basement from
some unknown cause. The damage
to the large stock of this firm is a
serious one, goods being badly injur-
ed by smoke and water rather than
by the blaze itself. Just what the
loss is was not ascertained at the time
the. Gazette went to press but there
is small doubt that it will run into
many thousands of dollars. The stock
was insured for a part Of it's value.
This store carried one of the larg-
est stocks of clothing of any store in
this section Of the state and the loss
is big one to the firm and to the
community. Damage to the build
ing was confined to the rear, the floor
and woodwork of the office suffering
most.
The cause of the fire remains un-
explained. A small boy entered the
rear of the store about eight thirty,
announcing that there was smoke
coming from the basement. About the
same time one of the statesmen not
iced smoke and flames coming through
the floor at the rear of the building.
Within few seconds afterward the
building was filled with smoke and
the floor at the rear was completely
burned through. 1t is supposed that
the trouble started in the boiler room.
While the Fire Department used as
little water as possible, it was neces-
sary to use some and this, combined
with the smoke, soon turned an ord
erly, well-equipped store into scene
of desolation.
The stock is especially heavy at
this time, the owners having stocked
well for the fall and winter trade.
Since today is Bargain Day. the stock
was displayed on tables and counters
more than is usual and this increased
the damage. The overall department
at the rear of the shop is complete
loss and several other stocks in that
section of the store were also badly
smoked and dampened. The goods In
the basement stock room also suf-
fered much injury.
This is the second disasterous fire
this firm has suffered. In 1902 when
the Francois Block burned, this store,
both building and stock, was entirely
destroyed in one of the most disastr-
Gus fires the city has ever known.
The members of the firm built val
iantly following that fire, putting up
a better building and enlarging their
stock and facilities. They will, with
the same indomitable courage, rebuild
and restock this time and Aune and
Thune will continue to be one OF the
Northwest best clothing stores.

Judges Are Candidates.

Judge I. M. Olsen of New Ulm and
Judge Albert Emerson of Lamberton,
both judges of this District, are can
didates to succeed themselves at the
November election. Neither of them
has opposition. Judge Olsen has been
judge of this District for many
years with the exception of the short
term of Mr.. Clague who resigned to
become a candidate for Congress.
When the duties became too heavy
for one judge to longer carry them,
Judge Gislason Of Marshall was ap-
pointed as the second judge. He re-
signed after serving only part of his
term and Judge Emerson was appoint
ed by Governor Christianson to take
his place. Both men have given splen-
did satisfaction throughout their Dis
trict-such good satisfaction that
neither the members of the Bar nor
the laity desire any change. While
neither of them has any opposition
the courtesy of a large vote is due
them and such will undoubtedly be
given them.

COUNTY ATTORNEY
HAS GOOD RECORD
DURINCFIRST TERM
GEORGE A. BARNES CLOSING
SUCCESSFUL TERM; ASKS RE-
ELECTION ON RECORD OF
WORK DONE IN PAST.

Since January first, 1922, the Of
flee of the Attorney of Redwood
County has done a greatly increased
business, the amount of work handled
through this office exceeding that of
any similar term in the history of the
County. These facts are shown by
the records at the court house and
those in the office of George A.
Barnes who has been the attorney
for the County during this term. Dur
ing this period more than 100000
has been paid the county in fines and
costs, this amount going into the
County Revenue Fund. This sum ex-
ceeds considerably the salary Of the
County Attorney and all the expenses
connected with his office. This
means that the office has not only
paid its own way but has been the
means also of increasing the county
funds.
The records of the work of Mr..
Barnes for the past four years re-
veals some rather startling facts con-
cerning the County's criminology. For
one thing more than 400 criminal
cases have been tried and disposed
of up to the present date according to
Mr.. Barnes records. These cases
range all the way from burglary in
first degree forgery and grand lar
ceny down to minor offenses such as
liquor violations aud like misdemean-
ors. There have been S5 convictions
in District Court and only one ac-
quital. Sentences have ranged from
fifteen to forty years and down.
Along with the criminal phase of
his work Mr.. Barnes has assisted six
Grand Juries, this work resulting in
more than seventy-five indictments
against criminal violators of the
County. These indictments were
drawn and the Investigations of all
evidence were carried on by the Coun-
ty Attorney. There were two abat-
ment actions growing out of liquor
cases. In one of these the premises
Of the liquor dealer were closed. In
the other the bootlegger's car was
sold and the resulting 1925 added to
The County's revenue.
During Mr.. Barnes tenure OF Of
flee there have been nine civil cases
wherein the County was a party, these
eases involving thousands of dollars
IF the County's money. These cases
have been successfully handled by
he present county attorney. The
county attorney also attended all in
sanity hearings, the hearings on de-
.inquencies in Probate Court and Juv-
4nile Court.
This record is an excellent one and
my item in it may be easily verified
~ any taxpayer of the County who
sufficiently interested to go to the
,ourt house and look into the official
'ecords. This work has been done
Turing Mr. Barnes first term of Of
ice and it is upon this record that he
