the blessings of a no-license ad
ministration of saloons money.
The question is simply deferred
until next year when we hope the
issue will be a square one on men
as well as measures.
In the meantime let those who
are opposed to a backward step
in our city affairs hold up the
hands of their representatives on
the council and give them all
support possible in standing by
their convictions.
THE CITY PLANT.
The Gazette in its last issue
made a blundering effort to prove
that the city water and light
plant is a losing proposition. To
do this it has to figure out a de
preciation of ten per cent in the
value of the plant for each year.
This means that in ten years from
now the entire plant—including
buildings, lots, mains, wire,
wells, boilers, engines, etc., will
be worth nothing, regardless of
the fact that in the yearly ex
pense account js figured neces
sary repairs and replacements of
smaller parts of the plant that
are worn out. It needs only a
moment's thought to see how
ridiculous this depreciation claim
is. Private corporations running
public utilities use such depre
ciation claims in order to hide
from the people the fact that
they are charging too high rates.
A plant run by the people them
selves does not need to disguise
its earnings under such false
claims.
THE SALOON ISSUE.
The result of the city election
was an unsatisfactory one to all
concerned, but especially will it
prove so to the saloon men. While
by hook or crook the license ad
vocates won a slight majority on
the question'they failed to nomi
nate or elect a license council.
With a council with decided views
on .the evils of the saloon traffic
and elected as representatives* of
the no-license policy it is plainly
evident that the situation is not
satisfactory to the saloon men.
The whole present administra
tion is built on the fundamental
principleof running the city with
out accepting money for licensing
evil or graft in any form. No
victory for license were possible
had the license men put up a sa
loon ticket. They fooled a few I increased $747.21, just a trifle
voters to believe they could have v°ver cent. The
In 1898 the plant received from
patrons for water and light the
total of $5,348.53. Last year it
received from the, same source
$11,122.39. Thus in eight years
the earning capacity of the plant
has more than doubled.
The receipts for the past year,
exclusive of what was received
from the city for water and street
lights, showed an increase of
$2,257.77, an increase of over
twenty-five per cent the running
expenses, including fuel and oil,
salaries, repairs and sundries,

New London Times: A man by the name
of Iver Frans, hailed into town a few days
ago, and put up at Nelson's restaurant. On
Tuesday night he came up missing, and had
not paid his board bill. A number of arti
cles belonging to Christ Berg, consisting of a
watch, watchchain and a ring, were also
missing. Marshal Winblad* was notified
immediately, and soon had his man located.
Mr. Frans walked to Hawick in the evening,
and had found lodging in Mr. Jenson's store.
Marshall Winblad drove to Hawick and
took him for leaving without playing his
board bill, and when he searched him, the
missing articles, belonging to Mr. Berg were
found. He was brought back to New Lon
don and yesterday county attorney Otter
ness came down from Willmaq and held the
hearing. The charge entered against Mr.
Frans was petit larceny, and because of his
immediate confession he was given a light
sentence, a fine of $10 and costs or ten days
in the county {ail. Not having any money
in his possession, Mr. Frans was compelled
to serve time in Willmar.... Jerimie Pelky,

ha\e been 101 years of age. The funeral
was held in the Catholic church at Paynes
ville yesterday forenoon at 10 o'clock. Mr.
Pelky had been ailing for over ayear One
of the largest auctions in the history of
Kandiyohi county occured at the home of
Even Railson in Norway Lake, when T. K.
Hasbrouck sold goods to the, amount of
over $3,000 in fivejiours. The prices were
way up on almost everything. On the
Suturday previous, he also disposed of Kul
lander Bros, personal property and they
report a very good price for all their goods.
Little Ruth Harlander, the 10 month old
child of Mr. and Mrs. Gustaf Harlander,)

Atwater Press' P. O. Hall went to the
cities last week to be treated for cancer.
Sometime ago a lump began to appear on
his lip, and he consulted several physicians
in regard to it, all of whom pronounced it
cancer, and told him it would have to be
operated on. He decided to consult Dr.
Kingsley of Minneapolis who treats cancer
with poultices rather than with the knife,
and Mr. Hall is now receiving the treatment
prescribed by this last named doctor. He
arrived home on Monday but will continue
the treatment until he is cured. Parties
were here from Winthrop last week to make
arrangements for opening up a bank here.
They contracted to purchase the building
now owned and occupied by Leonard John-,
son and and will remodel it before moving
into it. It is said the capital stock of the
new bank will be $15,000, the most of which
will be owned by the parties from Winthrop.
Among the organizers are E. W. Olson, cash

another of the stockholders, and County
