Quite a large» number ‘of ‘residents left this morning on the early trains for West Superior, to witness the festivities at that place. A.A. Kremer, who was recently connected with J. J.

Besides, it is absolutely necessary that Grand Rapids be represented at the launching of, whaleback steamers, etc., and as“we know of no one the town can better get along without than the gentlemen above mentioned, everybody will be glad they went. We were gving to switch the paper’s politics but the foreman wouldn’t stand our work. He agrees with us, however, that two papers in this town is one too many, so we hereby announce that the publication of the Herald-Review will after this issue be discofitinued. « 1t may.look strange that a paper like the Hefald-Review should boom a Republican for governor, but it must SOME FOUR LINERS Politics.

Pease, of Anoka might properly be designated the ‘country press candidate,” and as this journal is a member of that vast fraternity it hastens to add its sup- port. to bis candidacy. He has re- sided in Minnesota since he was a boy, and during all that time has been an active factor in its develop ment. As governor he would give the state an honest and economical administration, and if the Republi- cans would have a lead-pipe ciuch vo the next election they could not do better than to nominate Pease. Theré. wil be services at St. Jof seph’s church to-morrow.

I'll send the paper.” When fall came he found he was pay- ing the price of two papers. After that he found he was never too poor to take a ‘paper. Besides when he wanted to borrow his neighbor's p. + per he was’ always reading it, so he had‘to wait until the news was old or take it second-handed. There 1s nothing like taking one of your own and getting-the news from first hands. Try it. Will Ignore It. ‘The Head of the Lakes.

Remmington and a friend were engaged in fnendly wrestling bout, when the accident happened, The seven good jurors, who were secured on Monday to “sit” during the murder trial of Fergusson, did not like the idea of being locked up, so they kept the people in the village awake all night wondermg what was the cause of all the- noise.

The trip includes a. visit to Northfield to witness the laying of the corner stone of the Odd Fellows’ home. Mrs. Thos. McAlpine, who goes to _repre- sent Arbutus Rebecca lodge, left Tuesday. 7 Great preparations are being made for the 4th, such of its kind which has never before been witnessed here in this village. There-will. be base ball, Tunning, trotting, pacing and bicycle races, climbing the greased pole, and chasing a greased pig; and the probabilities are thatthere will also be a baloon ascension, it will be worth coming miles to’see. If the weather permits, a grand display of fire works able counsel and will resist any at- tempt that may be made to enforce its provisions. It 1s expected that a test case will be made at once, either in St. Paul or. Minneapolis, and the question as to the constitutionality of the measure settled for all time. A complete understanding has been had between the Duluth board of trade, Minneapolis chamber of commerce and the fruit exchanges of St. Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth and com mission m¢ n in other parts of the state so it is probable the state board of rail- road and warehouse commissioners will not be burdened with work in re- cording licensed commission honses and approving of the bonds offered as required by the obnoxious law. In Minneapolis Senator George P. Wil- son, who vigorously opposed the pas- sage of the law on the floor of the senate, has been retamed by the Chamber of Commerce and Fruit Ex- change and Palmer & Beck have been retained by the St, Paul commis- sion men. When the bill was up for consideration in. the senate, Senator Wilson, in speakmg in opposition to it, said that it was unconstitutional and that he would like nothing better than an opportunity. to demonstrate its invalidity in the courts, . He has been given the coveted chance. Many good lawyers have been consulted as to the validity of the law, and with- out exception they have. expressed the belief that it could not stand the test of the..courts...

When an ounce of gold would buy 16 ounces of silver instead of mere than 30 as now, then 50 cents in gold would buy just 50 cents in silver, charges would not fall with the prices of products, such, for instance, as are fixed by the trusts and monopolies, custom and law, but would be the same everywhere.

This gives them their old profitable price and gives us the ruinous half prices of recent years, and has made this mightiest of our farm industries very unprofitable, unless we happen to have the unprecedented crops of the last two years and they have a wheat famine at the same time. We can destroy this ruinous competition only, by open mints, for thereby and there- upon, the old ratio between guld and silver would be restored. Is not this also true? And the foregoing are among the reasons why the money question is not dead, neither sleepeth. * * Our balance of trade which does not bring us any actual cash in the “balance,” is a delusion: and an snare.
