MORRISON   CO.  WINSiUNDBERGH A WINNER
Morrison county has again
been awarded first prize on the
exhibit at the state fair. This
is tbe third or fourth successive
year that this honor has been
given to our county. This
speaks well for the industry of
Mr. Logan as well as the skill
of our farmers.
VALUE OF  FRIENDSHIP.
True friendship is one of the
greatest blessings on earth. It
makes the cares and anxieties
of life sit easily; provides us
with a partner in our afflictions,
and is a sure resort against every accident and difficulty. For
a summer table beverage
try Colden Grain Belt Beer.
It is a food tonic Which does a-
way with that tired and fatigued
feeling.
Order of your nearest dealer or

Veith farm last week.

We think it safe to say that
C. A. Lindbergh will be nominated for the office of U. S.
Representative from the sixth
congressional district, by a
large majority. So far as we
have been able to learn the
sentiment is strongly in favor
of the congressman. Mr.
Lindbergh has so ably represented his district during his
term of service that the people should stand by him and
show him that they appreciate
his tffort. "He makes a distinction between a government of the people administered by and for themselves,
through t: e instrumentality
of political parties, and a government of the people administered b" and for the bosses
and special interests in the
name of parties. He is opposed to bosses and professional politicians administering
the government. Political
parties, when properly directed, serve to unite our energies in favor of policies that
are for the common interests
and he asks all those interested to study with him how best
to promote the personal welfare."
