Clair and E.. Ne Remer, the committee appointed by the Itasca County Agricultural asso: ciation to solicit funds for the pur pose of making an exhibit of the pr ducts of the county at the state fairy have already secured over one thous and dollars for that purpose from owners of Itasca county lands in} Minneapolis and St. Paul. It is esti- mated that the cost of making the exhibit will be about $1,500. They expect to be able to raise the amount. Harry Williams has been appointed to gather the propucts from the farmers of the county and he will start out the first of the week on his mission. The farmers of the county should lend their aid to making of this exbibit a complete success, and it is oniy through their efforts that this can be done. The time is limited and those who have the matter in y a }county in the state has dealt more AOWs that in the former he includes four townships and in the latter only Dhe. He knows that in doing this he 8 dishonest. If he had any knowl- ige of the law he would know that Only one township can legally be set side by the board of county commis- sioners n independent school dis- rict. If Mr. Tone were inclined to honest and fair in his treatment of the subject in which he evinces so eep an interest, he would have in- estigated the history of school legis- ation in this county during the past ecade and learned therefrom that no generously with outside and isolated localities than has Itasca. Had the tounty board granted the numerous Tequests made for outside districts one half the county world to-day be ‘encumbered with school indebtedness that would remain for the farmers of the future to pay, as is the case with he Rainy Lake district. Instead of offering criticism on the manner in Which the school saffairs of Itasca county have been conducted every bitizen should raise his voice and cast his’ vote in commendation of the county boards and schvol boards who have so wisely and economically ad- ‘ministered the educational interests lof the rising generation.

THE HIBBING BALL GAME About Two Hundred and Fifty Grand Rap- ids People Visited Hibbing -ing into a discussion of the question at frequent intervals all the after- noon. Although the grounds were in a bad condition both teams played good ball as the score—4 to 4— very plainly proves. Ten innings were played and then the game was de clared off by mutual consent, as the rain was pouring down. About two hundred and fifty people went over}, from here and they all felt well}, pleased with the trip. The visitors. received royal good treatment at the} hands of every Hibbingite and there was no ill feeling engendered on} either side through the excitement. of the game..The Grand Rapids team haS issued another challenge to Hibbing to play another game on the grounds here for one hundred delJars a side. Manager Doran has’ not yet received areply to his challenge. i Trying to Make a Record. A. A. Tone, a lawyer who has located at Phena, is agitating himself beyond all reason over the affairs of school district No.1. Without enter- brought forth by Mr. Tone in a com- munication to the Phena record, it is at once painfully apparent that the ambitious young barrester of Phena will spoil in a very short time unless someone joins issue with him und starts a “scrap.” Mr. Tone wants to make a reputation for himself, agd it is evident that he has conceived the idea that this can only be done by at- tacking the school octopus of Grand Rapids. If the legal luminary of Phena can only succeed in attracting the attention of the public to his war on this most monstrous enemy of our) public school system his fortune and} his fame will have been made. It is} to be feared, however, that the public; will pay very little attention to Mr. Tone, and the Herald-Review ventures the prediction that when the public comes to know him he. will be re- garded as a very small and insignifi- cant factor in the affairs of this big and prosperous county. But aside from any real or fancied grievances that Mr. Tone may have against the board of school dis:rict No. 1, we agree that the people of Bridgie dis- trict have just cause to enter com- plaint against the school authorities for employing one A. A. ‘Tone. as teacher of the school at that place. Mr. Tone complains that too mach money is being expended for school purposes in the village of Grand Rapids. It he had taken the trouble to investigate he would have learned that the cost for educating the chil- dren of Grand Rapids averages more than ten dollars per pupil less than it dues in the outside districts. He would have learned also by inyesti- gation that more than two-thirds of the entire school population of Itasca county attends school in Grand Rapids. In making xpplication for an independent school distriet at Phena Mr. Tone was not sufficiently versed in the law to make bis 1i- cation in a legal manner, and hence the county board could do nothing but lay the matter aside until the application is presented according to law. When Mr. Tone quotes’ com- parative figures of the assessed valu- ations of the territory asked to be set enviable one. ROSING VISITS GRAND RAPIDS ‘The Democratic Standard Bearer of Minne- Sota Meets the Local Democrats. Last Monday noon Hon. L. A. |Rosing arrived from Duluth and re- mained in Grand Rapids until three p’clock in the afternoon when he left for Carlton and Cloquet. During his brief sojourn here Mr. Rosing met many of the local Democrats, and the ‘political situation was discussed at some length. At 1:30 dinner was served at Hotel Gladstone by Land- lord Wilder, of which abont eal Fl five of the faithful partook. Mr. Rosing will formally ‘open his cam- paign about the first of September, after which time he will devote him- self to speechmaking unti: the battle closes on the eve of election. “At the present time,’’ said Mr. Rosing, “the situation certainly looks favor- able, and I have every reason to be- | lieve that will be elected in Novem- ber. I have been over a considerable portion of the state and find the utmost harmony prevailing in the party ranks wherever 1 go. We certainly have a united Democracy Is a slang expression, meaning “up to the limit,” another slang phrase whose meaning is much the same as ‘the real thing.” This definition may not be pre- cisely luminous. “Do you want to know more on the subject? If so consult the book on Slang, now in preparation by a Columbian professor, or better still use Chase & Sanborn’s Seal Brand Coffee and you will know at once the meaning of ‘the real thing.” The real thing in coffee is the kind that produces a deep port wine color before cream and a rich golden after cream —only real coffee will do this. Chase & Sanborn’s high grade coffees which’ are delivered to you in richly colored parchment lined bags are the best that money can buy. The manner in which they are toasted and made ready for the con- sumer is nothing: short of scientific. Any one who once uses Chase & Sanborn’s Coffees can never after be persuaded to buy anything but “the real thing.” i Chase & Sanbom’s Coffees, HENRY HUGHES & 60.

S. Lofberg for $4,300, has been rescinded owing to the fact that Lofberg was unable to furnish the required bond. This re- sult was predicted in last week’s Her- ald-Review. When Lofberg found that that the council meant business and would not accept a straw bond and weuld leave no loop-holes through which he could shove in his eustomary ‘‘extras,’’ he quit, making the excuse that he had forgotten to include one item of lumber in his bid that would cost about $500. The council met Tuesday and awarded the contract to Alexander Roberts of Duluth at $4,890. Contractor Roberts will furnish a good and sufti- cient bond to have the building com- pleted by October 1, Will Run Independent. 2 The Border Budget corrects’ the Herald-Review in the statement that Commissioner Frank S. Lang was elected two years agoon the Demo- cratic ticket, and we acknowledge the error. Mr. Lang was elected as an-independent from his district, Al Blackman of 60-24 being the Derao- cratic nominee. The Budget says that Commissioner Lang will circul- ate a petition ina few days and be- come a candidate for re-election again as an independant. ‘That paper. also remarkes that he is not likely to have any opsosition, a fact that will be gratifying to his friends throughout the county who have watched his career and know his re- cord as a,member of the county board aside for a school district at Phena during the past two years. i} | q Geo.
