GONE "PICNICING"
A happy party of LeMars saloon men went north on Tuesday's train, their
objective point being Luverne, Minn., where tonight occurs the opening of
the new Continental at that place, and which is said to be the finest saloon
west of Chicago. It is owned by the former proprietors of the Continental
of this place. Among those who have gone to the "grand opening" were, J. B.
Champion, Tom Sutton, John Mandershied, and H. M. Conant. They were met at
our depot by a large delegation of Sioux City saloon men, who accompanied
them to Luverne.
