BELvIEW MARKET
CHANGES HANDS

Edward Kilgas and John Fenske
of Morgan took possession of the Bel
view meat market business last Mon
day which they purchased from John
Stoutland, who has taken charge of
the shop at Morgan. In making the
change Mr.. Stoutland has enlarged
his business operations considerably.
He has entered into a partnership
with his father-in-law, B. j. Bert
son of Waterville and his brother-in-
law, E. M. Jorgenson of Morgan and
purchased the Model Meat Market at
Redwood Falls, and the company will
operate the plant at Redwood Falls
and the market at Morgan. Mr.. Jor-
censor will have charge of the Mod
ell Meat Market at Redwood Falls.
Mr.. Bjertson will devide his time be-
tween the two places. During Mr..
Stoutland's period of business in Bel
view he has conducted a remarkably
neat place, handling only the best in
meats furnishing a first-class shop
in every way. The new proprietors
come highly recommended and, no
doubt, will continue the high stand
ard of the Belview meat market. If
the young men continue the good ser
vice maintained in the past at the
Belview Meat Market they will meet
with success.-Belview Independent.

Fred Theiring came home from Da-
kota to spend the 4th here.
Chas. Gales of The Palace went to
ST. Louis last Monday morning over
the Northwestern.
The Gazette outfit celebrated the
4th of July and the Chautauqua ex-
ervices to some extent, since the OPP
ening day. If the local spread is not
up to standard, charge it up to these
circumstances.
Miss Margaret Stewart, who has
made her home in Seattle for the past
two or three years, is enjoying her
summer vacation with relatives in
this vicinity. Miss Stewart is one
of score or more of graduates of
Redwood Falls high school who are
doing grand work in teaching the ris-
ing generation.
/. N. Tompkins and Mrs. Tompkins
arrived here last Friday, Isaac re-
manning over Sunday only. The cap
ital city papers state that the salaries
Of both Mr.. Tompkins and Secretary
Welsh received a considerable boost
the first of this month. The latter
will receive $4,000 instead Of $4,000
and Mr.. Tompkins' stripend has been
increased from $1,000 to $500 per
year.
Redwood Falls merchants made
their usual attractive window displays
on the 4th. All of them were good
but perhaps the most unique were the
fire-cracker window at Heilman &

at Thuerwachter's.

had been financed through contribu-
lions from utility interests of the State
since being formed, in 1923. He said
he was formerly employed by the Cali
fornia Power Co, for which he carried
on legislative service. This consisted,
he said. of analysing and reporting to
the company on bills affecting utilities
introduced before the State Legislature
Walther said contributions for the
campaign against the amendment had
totaled $4,000, and that refunds had
been made of the money which was
not used. The list of companies to
which funds were returned was en-
tered, and this showed that the largest,
amounting to $2,445, had gone to the
Portland Electric Power Co. Other
companies on the list included the
Mountain States Power Co.. the North
western Electric Co.. the Pacific Power
&, Light Co. and the California Oregon
Power Co.
The witness estimated that contribu-
tions toward the work of his bureau by
utility companies had totaled $50, 900 in
1927, and testified that $1,000 had
been received in May 1927 from the
Northwest geographic division of the
National Electric Light Association.
Healy then went into contacts be-
