Bonds Defeated.
At the special election held Tues
day for the purpose of voting 818,000
bonds to extend our water works
and build a reservoir on the hill
north of town , the vote was 67 for
and 61 against said bonds. The law
requires a two-thirds majority , so
the bonds were defeated. The vote
was li ht , probably on account of
the circus being here. It's up to the
town board to submit a different
proposition as the people evidently
are not satisfied with the present
wells , and can see no change of
water by having it pumped from
the same wells to a reservoir.

proceed to hold him up .Itlooks "to
a man up a tree1' like highway

seter left for Tripp last Saturday ,

likely that they will be held in that
state for trial.

You can drink two pints a day of
STORZ TRIUMPH BEER
and be strictly temperate.
Two pints of Storz Triumph Beef
contain less alcohol than one pint of
cider and in addition to this contain over
8 per cent , soluble food , which builds
and sustains the system.
If the public drank nothing stronger
than Storz Triumph Beer
THERE WOULD BE NO "TEMPER.
