Buell in Laprairie last evening that was _re- markable in one respect, at least. Some of the local Democratic candi- dates and their friends had been invited to come down and spend the evening, the which ivitation they accepted. ‘The party was met by citizens com- prising all shades of political views and amore enjoyable evening could not easily be imagined. Speeches were made by Republicans, Dem- ocras and Populists, but in which dis- discussions there was no partisanship or ill feelings. ‘The Grand Rapids boys returned home about 12 o’clock well pleased with their visit and. en- tertainment. — Died. * Mrs. Anna Jones, aged 39 _ years, wife of John W. Jones, died in this ilage on Tuesday morning last. The eceased had been ill oniy a few days, but ‘suffered a great deal with typhoid fever. A husband and six children are left to mourn their loss. The youngest of the children is but six weeks old. “ For Sale or Rent. The: Wallace cottage on Leland avenue ‘for sale or rent. Inquire of George “Prescott at water f FARRELL IS ENDORSEL M. J.

On the con- trary, however, Mrs. Mather is, well qualified by actual experience, having | taughtia both public and private REPUBS. ENDORSE FARRELL. Local Candidates Getting Down to Business and Hustling For Votes in Ail Directions—Democerats Confident of Success, Local politicians were somewhat surprised on Wednesday when the announcement was made that M. J. Baker would tender his resignation as Republican candidate for county auditor. Up to that tfme Mr. Baker had made no campaign and politicians, began to enquire the reason thereof. However, it appears that the Repub- lican nominee had been looking over the situation from a critical stand) point and finally reached the conclus- ion that his chances for election on] November 6th were entirely too slim to speculate with. He had advised witha number of his party associates and the opinion generally prevailed! that E. J. Farrell could not be defeat~ ed for a re-election. © Mr. Farrell’s conduct of the office has been such during the past two years as to secure the general apprubation of taxpayers, and among his strongest supporters areto be found leading Re- publicans in all parts of the county. A meeting of the Republican couuty committee was held yesterday when | Mr. Baker’s resignation was accepted | and the nameof Mr. Parrel! substitut- ed on the Licket. * * * As the campaign progresses it be- comes quite apparent that Jobn Rel- lis is growing in popularity’as candi- date tor sheriff. He is a good cam- paigner, beiug possessed of that bap- py faculty of making friends ay read ly as he can make acquaintances. Mr. Rellis’ splendid reputation as cha man of the board of county comm sioyers during the past two yeers will aid him very materia/ly in his present ‘canvas. Heis sucha man as will make an ideal sheriff. He will dis- charge the duties of his office without fear or favor to all classes and at. all times will be prepared to execute the laws as set forth in the statute books of the state. Itasca county needs such a man in the important office of sheriff and if we can judge from gen- eral* comment. John Rellis will be transferred from the board of county commissioners to the sbrievalty oa January Ist, 1901: a2 * In his usual energetic and effectual manner County Treasurer C. 0, Mil- leris making acampaign among his constituents that will result in a largely increased majority over his yote of two years ago. Whena pablig servant has served the people with entire satisfaction it is a difficult task to persuade ihe average voter that it would be good politics to make any change. n * * * The same argument. will hold equally good inthe case of Register of Deeds A. B. Clair. Men who have had much business to transact in the register’s office during the years that Mr. Clair has served in his present capacity are among his most effectual and earnest supporters. The securi- ty of every citizen’s real estate de- pends upon the competency of the person‘in charge of the register’s of- tice. Mr. Clair is recognized as one of the most reliabie and paiustaking in the state of Minnesota. * * * 2 Clerk of Court I. D. Passmussen has no opposition, and the fact that he has a waikaway appears to meez with general approval, x * * County Attorney Donohue has a much larger acquaintance through- out the county than he had two years ago when be defeated C. L. Pratt by a good-sized majority. He has made an excellent prosecuting. attorney and there are very few peo- ple who do not look for his re-election over the Republican nominee. ~ x * at * Mrs. O. L. Mather Democratic can- didate for school superintendent, las demonstrated oy ‘that she Is capable of Poy. buyats a Heseh 2 schools in the states of Michigan and New York. Mrs, Hattie F. Booth has also had a large experience in school work and her qualifications are well known to the people of this county. The people: will make no mistake in electing either of the ladies named for the important office of schuol superintendent. * * * George Vient is making a thorough hustle among the voters fur the office of judge of probate. He is well known toa large constituency and will be found among the winners when the votes are counted. ** * For the office of coroner Dr. Thomas Russell has no opposition, His elec- tion will give satisfaction to -all parties and all classes. a * * Archie McDougall’s nomination by the Democratic party for the office of county surveyor is being received all over the-county with much approval. Archie is personally acquainted with as many Itasca county veters as any man who ever worked in these woods and he is just as popular as heis well known. He is thoroughly competent and reliable both as a surveyor and citizen. x * In commissioner district No... two there will be a four-cornered fight. E. D. Johnson, the Republican nomi “lee; Al. Biackman, Democratic; Frank Freestone and Frank Lang, independents. Mr. Lang is the pre- sent member from Koochiching, and with three members in the field from this end of the district it will be hard .to tell who the successful man will ibe. The Koochiching district is in thehabit making claims for a_ big “vote, but on election day they gener- ally fail to materialize. Having a candidate of their own it seems quite probable that the full vote will be hustled out. Why He Flopped. Judge Holland’s record as judge of the Fifteenth district, for the past twelve years has stood the test of the common people of the district, with and for whom he has done business, as he has always used his talent and ability to give them perfect and im- partial justice. True the incorpora- tions, trusts and combines have done all in their power fo have his de: ions reversed and his recort blotted but it is the common people and not corporations that will cast the ballots at the November election and Judge Holland is safe in their hands. Judge Holland has always believed. that his judicial robes should not be polluted in the quagmire of partisan politics and on that account has never become prominent as a politician, nor has this or any of his previous campaigns been conducted in anything but a clean and dignified manner becoming to the honorable and exalred position he occupies and to which he seeks a re-election; but on the other hand, there has not been a dignified nor manly act or word used by his oppon- ent and the republican press in their campaign against him. Up until! February last Judge Hol- Jand’s opponant, W.5S. McClenahen, was an active and outspoken demo- cratic politician, but, with a great flourish of banner and loud blast of trumpet, he then turned his eoat and fiopped himself right gnto the repub- lican band-wagon, and in less than two weeks from that most remarkable flop he announced himself a candi- date for the nomination as judge on the republican ticket. The cause of so sudden and complete a change’ of political faith isso apparent that no comment is necessary. He \bid for the nomination at the hands of the republican party and his bid was ac- cepted. He is now making a bid for an election at the hands of the voters, but his bid will be rejected.—Beitrami Advocate. . saa BE Military Ball. B. F. Huson, post G. A.

SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE. ; Secretary Buell’s Experience During the Past Two Years Teaches Him That More Buildings and Track are Needed. The amount of work required in preparing the names of exhiditors and the premiums awarded at the late county fair has nee rily caused some delay in the publication. | Mr. Buell hasgiven bis'close attention tothe mutter, however, and is now ready to issue checks in payment of all claims against the Itasca County Agricultural association. It is the desire of the officers tu pay _all claims promptly and give entire satisfaction to every person whose displays were found worthy of a prize. A general effort should be made to increase the capacity of the present buildings and improve the grounds and track before another fair is held. Year after year the importance and value of our aunual exhibits from the farm and home are growing, and, as Secretary Buell says, ample facilities must be provided or the best results cannot be attained.
