Prinsburg, Oct. 19.—Martin Van
der Geett and Joe Terpstra have
rented the farm on which Fred
Plowman has made his home the
past three years while Fred has put
improvements on his own 100 acres
and will take his family there.
Thursday was hog day, so many
of our farmers bringing their hogs
to market. The hog cholera is fast
gaining ground, and farmers who
have hogs anywhere near the mark
etable weight sell as fast as they
can, for fear this dreaded disease
take them (the hogs, of course).
Sadie Myer, Richie Slagter and
Hattie and Bessie Nieuwenhuis
were among the young ladies who
went to Raymond last week for
new winter headgear.
Ben Wieberdink and wife were
visiting in Raymond Wednesday.
On Friday they left for a visit at
Greenleafton, Minn., and Chicago,
111., before leaving for their home
in Denver, Colorado. We hope the
change may be of benefit to Mrs.
Wieberdink's health and the best
wishes for future success follow
them to their new home. And so
we wish them God speed.
Miss Ruth Roelofs spent a few
days last week in Raymond.
Miss Annie Plowman came home
from Willmar, where she has been
the last month taking treatment at
the Willmar hospital. She re
turned somewhat improved in
health.
Baby girls have arrived at the
homes of John Bonnema, Lou Brink
and Henry Van Os. We might
make separate items of these three
young ladies, but that would not
add any to their welcome, and now
they have no cause to feel lonesome.

Barbara Nielson, the wife of
Knud Nielson of Mamre, was found
to be insane by a board of examin
ers last Friday, and she was taken
to Fergus Falls on the same day for
treatment. The disease manifested
itself in constait restlessness and
sleeplessness, and she would wander
away at night if not watched.
About five months ago she had a
severe fall, striking on her head,
and it is possible that this may
have had something to do with her
affliction. Mrs. Nielson has lived
in this county since 1876, is the
mother of two children, and is
about 76 years old.

C. G. CARLSON.
Carl Gustaf Theodore Carlson of
New London died at his home Oct.
15, at 5:20 p. m. He was a native
of Ringarum parish, Ostergotland,
Sweden, and was over 70 years of
age. He was for many years a
resident of Colfax township, but re
tired from the farm a few years
ago and moved to New London.
His wife Ulrika (Anderson) sur
vives him. They had no cihldren.
Three brothers and one sister are
among the mourners—John Ph.
Carlson of Colfax, Wilhelm Carlson
of Wilson, S. D., Frans. residing
in Pennsylvania, and Mathilda, who
lives in Sweden. The funeral oc
curred Saturday, Rev. Seastrand
officiating. The stricken widow
has the sympathy of all in the loss
of her faithful life companion.
Jumped From the Flyer.
Axel Hanson and Edward Dokken
had a miraculous escape from death
or at least serious injuries late Sat
urday evening. They were aboard
the late west bound passenger bound
for Pennoek to attend a dance, not
knowing that the train was not
scheduled to stop at that place.
When they realized that the train
was going thru, they jumped, and
as the speed of the' passenger was
something like 40 miles an hour,
one can easily realize that they
struck the ground with some force.
Dokken, however, escaped with only
a few scratches and bruises about
the head and neck, but Hanson was
badly bruised, and a doctor's ex
amination later revealed that hts
right collar bone was broken. As
luck would have it the east bound
way freight was on the siding, in
charge of Albert Gorwell, and he
and his crew helped the injured
ones and took them back to Will
mar, where Hanson was at once
given medical attention. Dokken
went to work the next morning,
but Hanson will have to take a rest
for a time. They were both fortu
nate to escape so easily. Had they
jumped a second later, they would
have struck a block holding a couple
of rails, and the story would have
had quite a different ending.
Stanford lor County Attorney.
Ralph W. Stanford, candidate for
county attorney, was born on a
farm near Kandiyohi in 1879. His
parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Stan
ford, are still residents of the coun
ty. Ralph graduated from the pub
lic school at Kandiyohi attended
the St. Cloud Normal taught school
two years in the county and attend
ed the Willmar High school and
graduated therefrom in 1899. He
then entered the University of Min
nesota, graduating from the law
school in 1902. He practiced law
four years at Minneapolis in the
law office of Ludvig Arctander,
during apart of which time Ludvig
was in partnership with his brother
John W. Arctander. Two years
ago Mr. Stanford located at Will
mar and has been very successful in
his practice. He served one year
as city attorney, in which capacity
he made a very good record. He
is thoroly in sympathy with the
progressive spirit of the times and,
if honored by the election as county
attorney, will make good as prose
cuting attorney and can be depend
ed upon to do the legal business of
the county in a satisfactory manner.
He is receiving a great deal of en
couragement from all parts of the
county, and the people will make
no mistake if they choose him as
their legal representative during
the next two years.

About a week ago the county au
ditor received the report of changes
made by the State Board of Equal
ization and by the Minnesota Tax
Commission. The changes are as
follows: increase—real estate, 10
per cent and 12 year old horses, 10
per cent 1 year old cattle, 25 and
2 year olds, 15 per cent carriages,
25 per cent watches and clocks, 60
per cent threhhing machines and
engines, 10 per cent gold and sil
ver plate and plated ware, 50 per
cent diamonds and jewelry, 25 per
cent wholesale merchants, and re
tail merchants, 15 per cent logs,
lumber, lath and shingles in hands
of manufacturer or retailer, 15 per
cent wheat and flour in hands of
manufacturer or retailer, 15 per
cent all other manufacturers ma
terials and manufactured articles,
15 per cent. Decrease—sheep of
all ages, 25 per cent. According
to law, this is the last year in which
the State Board of Equalization
takes part. After this all tax mat
ters are left in the hands of the
Minnesota Tax Commission. The
auditor and deputies are now busy
making the above mentioned chan
ges and extending the same on the
assessment books.
An Important County Oflice.
The county commissionership is
one of the most important offices in
the gift of the people. It is im
portant that the county commission
er be a man of tried business capac
ity and a man of a positive moral
character. Besides making the ap
propriations, levying the taxes and
conducting the business matters of
the county, the commissioners are
called upon to fill vacancies that
may occur among the county offi
cials, to select the jury list and
even to pass on applications for sa
loon licenses if by any chance any
township should vote in favor of
the same. There are usually two
kinds of men found serving on the
county board, viz., the kind that
has no mind of his own and does
what other interested people tell
him to do then the kind who
weighs everything carefully in his
own mind, figures out what is right
and then goes ahead without fear
or favor. This county has, as a
rule, been fortunate in the standard
of its county board in the past and
we do not believe that the people
of the districts involved in the elec
tions will have any difficulty to
choose the best man for the posi
tion.
On Friday, Nov. 20, the Chris
tian Endeavor society of the Pres
byterian church will have a sale of
fancy articles and candy at Bonde
Hall, at which time the Laides So
cial Union will serve supper.

William Haywood Proved a
Drawing Card Satur
day Night.
William Haywood, the noted so
cialist, drew a packed house last
Saturday night. He was introduced
by M. C. Tollefson of the local or
ganization. Mr. a de
nounced existing conditions in the
fiercest of language. The Repub
lican, Democratic and Prohibition
parties were scored. The follow
ing extracts fiom his speech serve
to chow his style of expression:
"It was a heart breaking sight
to see one million laboringniGn
praying tor political crumbs from
the Republican party. The Repub
lican party told them to go to
and they went to Colorado.
A man has aright to steal and bor
row but he has no right to starve.
I quote this from the good book
from the passage which tells of
Christ going through the cornfields
with his disciples. They asked if
it would he all right to eat the
corn, and Christ replied 'Pluck the
corn and eat thy fill but carry none
away.' If a mule down the street
saw a load of cabbage in a wagon
he would reach for it, and no one
would blame the hungry mule, and
I think you all have as much sense
as a mule. A man has a right to
beg, borrow and steal but he has
no right to starve, because starva
tion is suicide, and suicide is
against the laws of God and man.
"Preachers who don't know what
they are preaching about, editors
who don't know what they are writ
ing about, and politicians who
would not tell the truth on a bet
tell you that the Socialists believe
in dividing up. No, we have been
dividing up too long, we propose
to keep it all. We would turn the
country from a political junk shop
into an industrial workshop. We
don't want charity, we want jus
tice, and we are going to have jus
tice."
Mr. Haywood went to Fargo from
Willmar.

city. The happy event occurred at

Genne^see. Oct. 20.—Just at the
close of day last Friday another of
our old residents closed her eyes to
awaken on that brighter shore.
This time it was Mrs. Karin John
son, whose home was on the west
shore of Lake Carrie. She had
been in fairly good health up to a
week ago. On that day she ex
pressed a wish to go and stay at the
home of her stepdaughter, Mrs. Er
nest'Wilson, residing north of At
water. Her wish was complied
with, and she died at that place.
The cause of death was mainly old
age. Mis. Johnson was born in
Norway. Oct 30, 1830, being at the
time of her death nearly 78 years
of age. She left her old home in
Norway and came to this country
in 1866, and was married on Dec.
16, 1881, to Mr. Bolette Johnson,
who died several years ago. He
was one of the pioneer settlers of
Gennessee. Mrs. Johnson had no
children, but is mourned by four
stepchildren namely, Frank Johnson
of Minneapolis, John Johnson of At
water, Mrs. Ernest Wilson, at
whose home she died, and Alfred
Johnson, residing on the old home
stead and with whom she has made
her home. She also leaves an aged
brother at Grove City. She was a
woman of a kind and loving dispo
sition and a true Christian, and
will be greatly missed from her old
home. The funeral was held last
Sunday afternoon at three o'clock
from the Swedish Methodist church
of Atwater, and the remains weie
laid to rest in the Union cemetery
south of town. The surviving rel
atives have the sympathy of the en
tire community.
Mr. and Mrs. Erick Engvall spent
Sunday a week ago at the home of
J. E. Barker.
John Johnson left for his home
