Considerable comment has been occasioned by these occurances and a repetition of the offense will re- sult in a determined effort to cause the revocation of the offender’s license. E, L.

C. was here a week taking orders for the distribution of a work by the: goyern- ment, ten volums, containing the mes- sages and papers of the presidents of the United States from Washington to McKinley.

Mr. Hunter remained here longer than he intended to, be- cause, as he expressed it, Grand Rap- ids and her immuidiate surroundings. is the most delightful town in the north. KREMER RE-ELECTED. The School Meeting Last Saturday Even- ing Quite a Lively Affai4. This school district is assured of a first class directorship during the next year. E. A. Kremer - was re-elected last Saturday, and with. Mrs. C. C. McCarthy as the other member of the board the people feel secure in _ trust- ing our educational affairs to their. combined good judgment. Since Prof. E. T. Carroll has been principal of Central school the standard has been raised from zero by the state graders to among the very highest in Minnesota. He is regarded as among the most advanced educators inthe west. Mr. Kremer’s election secures Prof. Carroll’s continuance at the head of our high school, and those who are.interested 1n its wellfare have ample reasons for congratulation. County Auditor E. J. Farrell, who was absent from the village on a visit to New York state, was the innocent victim of those who would convert our public schools into charitable in- stitutions. Mr. Farrell was well aware {that under the law he could not hold the office and that of county auditor at the same time, and it was his friends, not-his enemies, who ‘voted agaist him. Could he have served asa director and been elected he would make a most excellent member and one who would conscientiously work for the best interest of education. His defeat 1s no reflection upon his personal popularity or worth. There were 267 yotes cast of which Mr. Kremer received 207. At the conclusion of balloting other business was considered and transacted. ‘The tresurer reported that at the begin- ing of the year cash on hand amouat- ed to $330,82; receipts during the year, $19,875.92; balance on hand, $1,414,- 81. It was voted to raise the tex levy to $15,000 tor school expenses for the ansuing year. ‘he sum of $250 was voted K, A. Kremer for his services during the past year, and a simular sum was fixed as the salary to be re- cived by Mrs. C. C. McCarthy, the clerk of the board. After some decussion it was declar- ed to be the sense of the meeting that the directors should construct an iron’ fense around Central school grounds. THE BICYCLE BOYS. At a Meeting Held Wednesday Evening it Was Declded to Begin Work. Qutte a number of the members of Grand Rapids Cycle club met at Vil- lage hall, Wednesday evening and discussed matters of mutual interest, particularly relating to path improve- ment. It was decided by unanimous vote that the members shouid turn out on Tuesday next in a bedy to begin the building of a path to Pokegama lake along the old road, Those who cannot personally report for duty will send a substitute or pay into the treas- ury of the club 50 cents. The num- ber enrolled up to date is not as large as it should be. The ladies are only charged 50 cents to join and men $1.00. Itshould not task to raise a fund of $100 to be ex- pended un paths. It was decided at Wednesday’s meeting to construct a bridge span ning *Dead Man’s Gulch,” south of the Indian . burying” grounds. The path proposed will follow the present trail, starting at the Mississippi bridge, entering the woods at the rear of Villa Scholastica, crossmg ‘Dead Man’s Gulch,” following the trail. to the old Pokegama road, and reaching the lake at Allan’s landing.. The club feels quite enthusiastic over this new enterprise, and the path when com- pleted will no doubt be the popular spin for wheelmen. It is only fair to expect that every member of the club will put forth an extra effort to be present at the “bee” next Tuesday aiternoon, or send a good substitute. The Boy-Girls. Pease, the philosopher of the Anoka Union, found the following in a Kansas paper and thought it good enough to reproduce, ‘The Herald Review does not print it for local ap- be any such in Grand Rapids: “A great deal of jawing is done be- cause: the boys come down town at night and loaf all around Commercial street, Perhaps the boys would be better off at home reading good books or thinking high, ennebling . thoughts but the Gazette desires to say right here that boys are in lots better busi- ness down on Commercial street than | their sisters who. are mgged out in | fluffy dresses, perched on the front porch, waiting for fellows; too many girls in this town are given over body and soul to fellow businéss, and their brothers who smoke an occasional cigar, or drink a glass of beer once and a while will be woith lots more to this world than these morbid, hand-hold- ing rattle-pated fellow chasers.

It seems not, In regard to the street commissioner that paper says that he is paid $50 per month for doing nothing and pays other men $2 per day to do it. Commissioner Vient is the only man now doing work on the streets and sidewalks, and he can generally be found doing his duty where repairs are needed. «No man employed on the street this year, except the com- missioner, has been paid more than $1.50 per day The Magnet will also find by reference to a law passed last winter, that the village council is re- quired by its provision to appoint a street commissioner.
