Republicans Win in Emmet County and State Races
The county and state returns show Republicans winning major offices. Cummins defeats Connolly, Clarke defeats Hamilton, Woods returns to Washington, and Wigdahl wins the representative seat. In Emmet County, numerous Republicans are elected to county posts while Democrats secure some township roles amid a broad GOP victory. A fire surge raises questions if Estherville has a firebug as multiple barns burn across town in two weeks.

Second Letter From Fred Spies Describes German Travel Perils
Fred Spies continues his letter from Mannheim era travels recounting a cheerful elderly passenger, a near-empty bridge, and crossing the Rhine to Ludwigshafen. He details the American consular advice in Heidelberg, funds and trains for stranded travelers, and a visit to Heidelberg’s famed castle, noting its medieval defenses, the castle layout, and the temperance barrels in the cellar. The piece ends with promise of continuation.
