Mail City and Vicinity. No Reflection Intention. In making a news report of the vil- lage council proceedings in the last issue, the Herald-Review so coupled the action of the couneil in relieving Nightwatchman O’Riley from further duty after the 1sth imst.,-and the claim made by a village prisoner that he had been reheved of $2 by the watchman, as to lead toa possible misunderstanding. The charge against Policeman O’Reilly was entirely with- out foundation, and so the committee reported. Every man who violates the laws in any village or city and} falls into the hands of the police natur- ally feels sore at the peace officer who k makes the arrest, and to claim rob- bery in this c only means they’ have ‘Ted O'Reilly has made a very efficient | officer since ‘beng appointed. ‘The | action of the council in disposing ot | the services of a nightwatchman had | no reference to the alleged taking of | two dollars. | it Finally Rained. | For the past month or so the peo- | ple of this section have been praymg | 1o the Lord, Allah Belzebub, or to | which every diety they owed alle- giance, for rain. Supplications, how- ever,scemed futile, so more certain | measures were resorted to. Shoes were polished, ladies wore their best hats, umbrcllas were lost on purpose, the fire department sprinkled the streets just to prove that it did not have to rain unless it wanted to, lum- bermen swore there was to much water, and it had almost been decided to hold a mass picnic im summer ap- paral to see what affect that would have.

Jameson, editor of the Border Budget, Koochiching, has been in the village during the past week. Mr. | Jameson is a pioneer of his section, where he is ‘at present postmaster. He says that the development of the Raing river country has necessarily, been slow, but that asa railroad is now anan assured fact the coming few years willsee vast strides mad Mr. Jameson says that within one year after a railway ine enters Kooch- iching the town will outnumber the county seat in population. He 1s en- thusiastic over the possibilities of his section and believes that in a very short time he and his feliow-pioneers ill be fully repaid for the mconven- | xence they have experienced, ® Paid Their Taxes. The law known as chapter 235 gen- erallaws of 1899, providing that no timber or mineral shall be removed from lands until taxes on the property have all been paid, has been apphed with snecess in a number of cases in ftasca county. County Attorney Donahue discovered quite a number of cases where timber had been re- moved before taxes had been paid, he at once proceeded to notify the owners that unless things were squared up the logs would be seized. «Every concern so notified came to the front at once and paid all the taxes due. ‘The sums realized were not large, but it is very doubtful if they would ever had been turned it had not the statute been apphed. Marriages of the Week. On Thursday afternoon Mrs. P. Sayers and Mr. Pattrick Kinney, both of Cohasset, were married at the Catholic parsonage by Rev, C. V. Camache, In the evening a large number of the friends of the couple went from here to give them a house- warming, and by reports they must of had an excelient time.
