A safe Soap is the one made from yvegeta- ble oils, with the alkali and oil perfectly | combined. Excess of oil means imper- fect cleaning; excess of alkali means a roughened skin. While cheapness in soap often means badness of quality, you need not pay | high prices in order to get good soaps.

THE COHASSET ROAD. Much in Need of Repairing—The Town Boad Should Begin Work at Once. pat 8 ri There is no public highway in Itasca county used more than that between Cohasset and Grand Rapids, and at the present time it is in about as bad coudition as any road in this sectiun. In fact, since the construc- tion of the dam at this place portions of itis overflown to such an extent that it nas been necessary to abondon it entirely and use the old ruad along the ridge, which is almost impassable When the work is done it should be done thoroughly and insuch a man- her that it witl remain permanently. Travel between these two points is of daily accurance and the’ trade that comes to Grand Rapids from the west is very considerable, and should not be lost on uccount of poor roads, Every business man in Grand Rapids is in- terested in this matter and if public sentiment demands it the necessary work will be done. Caught the Wrong Man. John Welsh is a young: man who suddenly changed his abode and mysterously disappeared from Grand Rapids last week. He had been boarding and rooming at Dave Cham- ber’s resturant, and managed to ac- cumulate a bill amounting to $20 which he forgot to settle before leav- ing. Dave got his “Dutch up” at such treatment from one whom he had befriended and proceeded to cause a warrant to be issued for Mr. Walsh’s arrest. In respunse to.a telegram sent out word was received from Cass Lake that the board-bill- jumper had been captured aod was being held by the authorities in that village. Sheriff Tyndall went to Cass Lake Monday and returned on the afternoon train’ with a man incharge, but it was the wrong man. Dave still has twenty dollars tabbed up on the wrong side of his ledger. Visit From John Lind Ex-Governor John Lind was a visit- or to Grand Rapids this week. He was not here on a political misson, ow- ever, as may be suspected, but-purely en business. Like many atother shrewd business man who happesis to own real estate in close proximity with the iron belt of the Western Mesaba jn the vicinity of Grand Rap- ids, he has recently become very much interested in a tract northeast of this village to which he holds title. During the past few weeks several parties have been to Mr. Lind with propositions to either buy, lease or take options on the land acd in consequence of the anxiety“displayed by those who desired to get pusses- sion of it, he cpncluded to took over In company. with D. M. Gunn he drove out tu the land Tuesday morning. While here Mr. Lind did not talk politics—he ap- pears to be attending strictly to busi- ness and the newspaper reporters find little satisfaction in their efforts to interview the ex-governor, But whatever Mr. Lind’s intentions may be at the present time he will find it a very - difficult matter to refuse the general demand that will be made upon him to again lead the reform forces in the campaign next fall. Minnesota needs John Lind in the executive chair. Dulath’s Bowery Probiem Duluth begins to realize that the reign of terror that has so long exist- ed on the notorious ‘‘Bowery,” must be dealt with. The following pro- posed remedy is set forth by the News Tribune: “It is gratifying to note that the charitably disposed in Duluth are about to attempt some- thing in behalf of the ‘lumberjack’. tis proposed to open on the Duluth Bowery a resort where the woodsmen can get lunches, smoke and have an opportunity for reading, coming 10 contact, not with those eager to loot his hard-earned wages, but to sur- round him with an air of honesty, cleanliness, morality and unobtru- sive Christinity.. This is a worthy enterprise and should get a wide sup- port.” A Delightful Dance, The Rebekah ladies*‘of Arbutus lodge deserve the splendid reputa- tion which they enjoy as entertainers, and that reputation was well sus- tained on Monday night tast ‘when they gave their sixth annual ball. The only criticism that might have been offered was on the size of the attendance, taxed the hall to its full capacity. It is sufficient to say that the music was furnished by the Grand Rapids orchestra and that the ladies of the order furnished and served the supper, to know that Both were the best that the market affords. The total ea amounted tv $131, while the ladies netted $81, OL after paying all expenses, ae sire ‘oa HOME FOR WOODSMEN The Difference Between Treatment of Lab- orersiIn Grand Rapids and the Cities. Scarcely a paper is issued from Du- luth or the Twin cities that does not contain accounts of robbers, hold- ups, knock-downs and knock-outs of the jubilant jack from the woods. 4t appears to be recognized by the authorities in these cities that there is an organized system prevailing among the lower class of grogeries that is skilfully operated to deprive the woodsmen of their money by whatever means may be found neces- sary. Fusel oil is the principal and most effeetive weapon used. While thése crimes are of daily occurrence we seldom hear of a conviction of the guilty divekeeper, but instead his victim is usually sent to the rock pile. The extensive advertising that this villainous system. has received of late years through the press should be sufficient to warn the woodsmen against patronizing the ‘“bowertes,’ but warniogs appear to go unheeded by those for whom they are calculat- ed. During the past year there has not been a single robbery report- ed iu Grand Rapids and compara- tively very few arrests have-been made for violations of village ordin- ances by men from the woods. There is no place in the state where men are so secure from human har- pies as right here in Grand Rapids. Their value to the business houses of the village are appreciated and the authorities recognize that these men are entitled to protection against the vultures who would feed and fatten upon the earnings of the lumberjack if permitted to ply their vicious vocations unchecked, as they doin the larger cities. It is about time that the men who toil in the timber of northern Mineesota should begin to learn that they can receive no pro- tection in Duluth, Superior, St. Paul or Minneapolis. while in the smaller towns, where they personally know the citizens, and are made to feel at home among them, there is no danger of robbery or death from drinking fusel oil. ~ THE BONDS WILL SELL. Village Bonds Goat Five Per Cent—Every- thing Settled Except Formal! Action. Recorder Fred A. King is in receipt of a communication from F. W. Kraft attorney for Duke H. Farson & Co., Chicago, in which suggestions are made as to the manner of proceedure twenty-five thousand dollars of Grand ofan electrict light plant. As re- cently stated in these columns the curative act passed at the extra ses— siov of the legislature enables the council to legally dispose of the bonds voted by the people last July. The favorable. Now that the. village is 1n condition to proceed with the deal, it is to be hoped that no unnecessary time will be lost in secuering munici- pal ownership. George Moore in the water County Commissioner Moore of Co- hasset had a rather damp experience the first of the week. While pushing a row boat out into the Mississippi river aboye Cohasset his boat came in contact with some immovable ob- stacle and George and the boat went under. The water was chilly and the ice cold, but somehow the county legislator has thus far managed to keep out of the hospital. The, same day ascaler was riding one of Mr. Mvore’s horse down from the camp and instead of taking the rvad he tried the river ice, with disastrous re- sults. The horse and man went un-— der, but fortunately the man escaped drowning, wile the horse went down to death. ~ Death ot Exelda Perreault. Exelda Parreault, sixteen year old, daughter of Mrs. J. Nolen, died on Tuesday, April, at Morris. Minne- sota, of heart disease. The deseased bad been attending the government school for Indian children at Morris during the past two years. While she was apparentiy in the best of health, at times she complained of pains in the heart, but no thought of her early death was entertained by her daily associates: She was found dead in her bed on the-morning of the first inst.
