Sentiment in favor of Judge Stan- ton’s re-election seems very pro- nounced in every county in the dis- trict and his friends are confidently predicting a majority for him that will run into the thousands. As inhis campaign of two years ago, he has been dignified and gentlemanly, relying upon his stand: ing as a citizen and a lawyer, and upon his record asa judge to com- mend him to the voters of the dis- trict. Unlike his opponent, who bas made use of the columns of a news- paper, published by a disgruntled litigant at Grand Rapids, to attack his character and motives, Judge Stanton has accorded to his oppon- ent that fair, generous treatment which every citizen is so desirous shall govern all political contests, and especially when the judiciary is involved. The bench should be placed above politics. The election of Judge Stan- ton will demonstrate that the people of this district favor and endorse this popular belief. This judicial district is the largest in the state. It is one of the most important in the state. It is import- ant because of its great natural re- sources, its immense possibilities, its rapidly growing population andits un- usually large volume of legal business. Such conditions demand experi- ence, ability and character on the bench. In such a judicial district the election of a judge is more than a mere political contest. Itbecomes a matter of vital public concern, over- shadowing all partisan considera- tions. The almost unanimous endorse- ment of Judge Stanton’s candidacy by the lawyers of the district con- stitutes the most unusual and strong- est endorsement possible for a candi- date for a judicial place to have, and it reflects toa marked degree the high esteem in which Judge Stanton is held by the voters gener- ally. The statement made in the Grand Rapids Rapids Independent to the effect thatthe lawyers signed this endorsment through corecion is so palpably false and malicious as to be regarded as ridiculous and absurd by every fair-minded person, and is a gross and unwarranted reflection upon the honor and integrity of the lawyers of this district. GUILTY. Bemidji was on trial last night on the charge of being indifferent to the better class of theatrical productions. A company of sufficient talent to grace any playhouse in any city in the country and equipped with prop- er scenery and expensive wardrobes presented “'Paid in Full,” an Ameri- can drama so rich in lines that teach a lesson and so strong in dramatic interest that more than 2,000,000 persons have witnessed its presenta- tion. The play had been widely adver- tised, the newspapers had gone to un- usual lengths in an effort to stir in- terest, the town had been blanketed with posters and residences flooded with handbills. An expensive home orchestra was employed and appar-|. ently everything was done to give Bemidji a fair test. But despite all this, the box office was at no time in danger of being mobbed. It is not likely that Bemidji will see other shows of the “Paid in Full” management, which were promised providing “receipts so warrant.” As receipts which scarcely pay expenses can hardly be taken asa ‘“‘so war- rant” sign, the shows probably will not come. Undoubtedly the high scale of prices had a great deal to do with keeping the attendance down last night. Those of our people who find enjoyment in attending the theater are accustomed to a cheaper addmittance fee, while those who think it a waste of time to devote an evening before the stage except for plays of real worth were mysteri- ously absent, preferring apparently to visit the cities for their theatrical enjoyment, depending upon Bemidji for the simpler and more exclusive forms of amusement. Then, too, opera house affairs will never be at their best so long as we haven’t an opera house. Most folks ponder over the proposition before passing over real money for an imita- tion opera seat; they want a real parquet and dress circle and they don’t relish the idea of having their vision of the stage blocked by a seata dozenrows back on a flat floor. In any event, however it must be discouraging for those in charge of the Armory hall to exert their best efforts and be rewarded by the pres- ence of a handful of persons. It looks like a case of back to the “ten, twenty and thirty” and Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the last named pro- duction at its recent appearance here establishing an attendance record for this season. l WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY Those robbers over in Bemidji have evidently feathered their nests, but not with Crane feathers.—Cass Lake Times. Took Peep for Another Leap. The first snow of the season flaked the ground on Thursday of this week, Oct. 27.—and coal at $9.50 took a peep for another leap. —Itasca News. Too Much Johnson. There is still danger in the alleged “dry” territory of northern Minneso- ta and some fears are expressed that the Cass Lake saloons as well as all the rest in the alleged forbidden territory may be closed permanently. 'Bemidji comes within the terrltory included according to W. E. John. son, the government official who has charge of the affair. Some people will once more declare that there is altogether too much Johnson.—War- ren Register. Hearst is Out-Hearsted. We have thought that Hearst's New York American’s account of the Baudette forest fire was the limit, but the first page article headed “Warren is Reported Afire,” in Mon- day evening’s Minneapolis Tribune has it discounted. According to the Tribune’s iu- formant, the fire “started in the town hall and rapidly spread to surrounding stores and dwellings.” grain elevators, machine shops and cement block factories. All these are reported burning. _ * * It is" believed that . the town. will be burned to the grqu‘md.” And there is more of the same kind. Evidently the Tribune is not familiar with the geography of Northern Minnesota, because it says that Warren “is in the vicinity of the district which re- cently suffered from forest fi es.”— Warren Register. : Crazy Reports, To give an idea of some of the crazy reports that went abroad about the recent fire, the following is an extract from the Birmingham Eng. Gazette and Express, received by Mrs. W. X. Jones. Comment is unnecessary. It is no wonder English- men come out here with elephant guns to shoot mastadons and'find themselves taking the role of the hunted instead of the hunter. “Refugees tell terrible tales of their race for life before the on- coming wall of flames. They were accompanied in their wild rush by all kinds of wild beasts, which were driven out of theirt forest haunts by the fire. Hundreds of deer, caribou, moose, bears, wolves and wild cats joined men, women and children, and raced widely about the fire edge. Many animals, becoming exhausted, lay together in huddled heaps and were burnt to_cinders. Others escaped with the. human be- ings by swimming. “Hundreds of armed ruffians are pillaging the ruined towns, where there is inadequate police pro- tection.”—Rainy River Region. Making a Lawn. On his English tour an American was admiring the velvety smoothness of a certain sward, and, being pos- sessed of land and an overpowering confidence that with money all things are possible, he asked the head gar- dener how t produce such a lawn. And the dener said: “It's easy enough, sir. All you need do is to remove all the stounes, plow up the ground, plant it with grass seed and roll it for 300 years.” Our Friends. 5 If we chouse our friends for what they are, not for what they have, and if we deserve so great a blessing, then they will be al s with us, preserved in absence and even after death, in the amber of memory.—Cicero. Couldn’t Talk. De Style—You say that loving pair of deaf mutes were sitting In the parlor and didu't carry on a conversation? Gunbusta—They couldn't, for they were holding hands.—New York Press. I never knew an early rising, hard working. prudent man, careful of his earnings and strictly honest, who com plained of bad 'nek.—Addison.
