Frée-" : é t | | | The reading club which has been ;named the Current Event club, is making excellent —_— progress. It held its regular meeting at the Ehle & Russell hospital this afternoon. The Poor Man’s social at Rev. Charles Campbeli’s last Wednesday evening caused much jollity and those who attended found a great deal to please and amuse them. W. M. Noon, superintendent of bridges and_ buildings, and W. R. Hollance, of the Duluth & Winnipeg. came up from Superior during the early part of the week. About fifty of the gold bug adherents went to Laprairie ‘Tuesday night to hear Judge White, of Duluth, talk for hard money. The affair, especially | the parade part of it, was quite tame. H. F. Mallmann was in from the iron range Wednesday. They have begun another shaft at the Arcturus mine making four there now. The third shaft struck such good ore that the Mallmanns are well plersed. The Presbyterian ladies invite the public to their display of culinary ggods Saturday afternoons from 3 to 6 ;o’clock. at Mr. Marr’s store. Last Saturday’s sales were highly gratifying.

They remembered numerons friends in distributing the tropheis of their skill. C. R. Gardner of Stillwater, and E. A. McGolrck of St. Paul, were at Hotel Gladstone the first of the week and went into the woods to examine tracts of pine land in which Jefferson & Kasson, the St. Paul lumbermen, are interested. The Herald-Review will stake its reputation as a political prognosticator right now, that Billy Lacroix will be the next auditor of Itasca county. . He 1s known to be thoroughly competent, votes like a whirlwind. About 200 people boarded the special train to Duluth on Tnesday last to pay their respects to William Jennings Bryan. They psrticipated in the largest and most enthusiatic gathering ever witnessed at the head of the lakes. Frank J. Brady, the prominent St. Paul politician and proprietor of the Califorina Wine House, was here Wednesday. In the Duluth crowd on ‘Tuesday he lost a valuable diamond pin which was the only cause of regret he had for his visit to the Zenith city. »C. C, Mc. Carthy is expected to re turn home the latter part of next week from his labors of love for the single gold standard through the Sixth dis- trict. Mr. Mc.Carthy has also done some work for the State Central Com- mittee in the soithern part of the state. sEmil Litchke started for St. Paul and Minneapolis Thursday morning to select his winter stock of blankets, robes, leather, etc., for his harness business here. He said he would stay on the ground until his orders are all filled and see that he gets’ the best the markets have to offer. Capt. Mason of the A. O. U. W. was here durmg the week to organize a lodge of the United Workmen. He had considerable encouragement in his efforts, It is an old, well establish- ed order with aninsurance department that has as firma foundation as the rock of ages. Captain Mason has already secured seventeen’ charter membrs to start the lodge here. In cigar manufacturing here George Booth is justly entitled to the sweep- steaks for fine quality in all his brands, He leads his work personally and, being one ofthe best judges of tobacco in the northwest, no poor stock 1s used in his establishment. His campaign cigars are sure vote getters and he takes pride in furnishing good stockto the winning candidates, The most recent survey of the Great Northern engineers,on which they are still working, crosses the Mississippi at Carr’s sawmill and runs about two miles south of Bermidji. It looks as though they are trying to tap Bermidji for a bonus. itis said that the line will pass between Cass lake and Pike bay and connect with the Duluth & Winnipeg near Deer River. A hunting party consisting of Ross Dedsun, Dr. Brown, Henry Kniffen vand R. W. Buffum started, Wednes- ay for Cohasset, from which place ies went on the North Star to Six Mile lake, just north of Leech lake, ‘where Mr. Buffum has established a hunter’s resort. The party was equipped with ammunition enough to lepletg the Leech lake country of Ks. “Fhe €ditor of the Magnet says h+ hopedythat. the “ Herald-Review had permantly discontinued to tell the truth ‘eoricerning him and his _ black- mailing»methods in private and public lite, “No. six; the. Herald.Review will | continue from time to time, as the exi- gencies étthe case may demand, to Show the Magnet Mongrel up in his proper lightjawithout any considera- ven whatever as t6 whether he likes or | dislikes it. The Herald-Review this week is ‘way behind its usual standard in the amount of reading matter which it contains, but it is hoped that our re- ders will find the official national, state and county tickets of much interest. As election day ap- proaches the voters should be- gin to post themselves on the various candidates. It goes without saying that most people have already made up their minds regarding the national and state tickets, but the county ballot should be studied carefully and* good judgment exercised in the selection of the different officers. The ballot as printed in today’s Herald-Review is published by authority of law andis identical to that which wlil be present- ed to the votérs on election day, Our esteemed contemporary down on First street utterly blasts the Her- ald-Review man’s political aspirations by publicly proclaiming that he will be defeated in his candidacy for the office of judge of probate. That’s too bad, and more’s the pity that our Magnet friend did not vouchsafe this most depressing intelligence before two parties in conyention had called upon the Herald-Review editor to make the patriotic sacrifice in behalf of the people. Much anxiety and hard hustling for delegates and votes might thus have been averted. Even as it is—were it not for these stringent financial tmes—we could yet “fix’’ the Magnet man and secure his ‘tre- menduous influence with§ about five silver dollars. But in the absence of the boodle we must suffer defeat—perhaps. ASE ASE Mixed Pickles. If ever theae was a case of mixed pickles, this campaign is one. with its numerous tickets, its factional strife and its strings of candidates. There is, however, one candidate bound to win, whatever happens, and that is the Saint Paul-& Duluth Railroad. The Duluth Short Line, as it is popu- larly known, bas always been the favorite with those desiring to travel between St. Paul, Minneapolis, Du- luth, West Superior, Taylor’s Falls and other Northwestern points, be- cause of its facilities and the service it gives. Its rapid trains, made up of the latest and best equipment, al- ways run smoothly, «t hours conven- ient to the business man, between excellent terminals, where the closest connections are made with other trains. Moral—always take the Du- luth Short Line and go with the crowd. For, maps, circulars and gen- eral information, apply to ticket agents, or write direct to W. A.
