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 exhibit a complete success, and it is only through their efforts that this can be done. The time is limited and those who have the matter in charge must act at once. THE HIBBING BALL GAME About Two Hundred and Fifty Grand Rap- ids People Visited Hibbing ‘The base ball excursion to Hibbing last Sunday proved a decided success despite the unfavorable weather that prevailed throughout the entire day. In the morning the air was chilly and before the game was called at 2 p. m. rain began to fall which continued 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 dé- 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 Manager Doran has not yet received areply to his challenge. 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- .ing into a discussion of the question 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 and 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 rict. If Mr. Tone were inclined to honest and fair in his treatment f 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 }county in the state has dealt more 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 ‘the Rainy Lake district. Instead of offering criticism on the manner in Which the school :affairs of Itasca county have been conducted every | titizen should raise his voice and cast his vote in commendation of the county boards and schvol boards who have so wisely and economically ad- F ministered the educational interests of the rising generation. If Mr. Tone fwere a lawyer worthy of the title he Would have known that the fixing of jthe treasurer’s compensation at the July meeting was for the year past— not the coming year—as he erroneous- y states in his erratic communi- cation. If Mr Tone continues he Will succeed in making for himself a reputation, but it will not be an enviable one. ROSING VISITS GRAND RAPIDS ‘The Demoeratic 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 twenty 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 in Minnesota with a perfect working organization. Ali that is necessary is to continue as we have begun and victory will be our reward.” Lofberg Falls to Qualify The contract for the construction on this most monstrous enemy of our; Of the water power and electric light public school system his fortune and | building, It is | his fame will have been made. 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. ‘Tune. as teacher of the school at that place. Mr. Tone complains that too much money is being expended for school purposes in the village of Grand Rapids. If 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 dves in the outside districts. He would bave 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 upplication for an independent school distriet. at Phena Mr. Tone was not sufficiently versed in the law to make bis li- cation in a legal manner, and tikes 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 ase for a school district. at Phena awarded by the village council last week to J. 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 customary ‘“‘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 suffi- cient bond to have the building com- pleted by October 1 Wilt Run Independent. | 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 Dero- cratic nominee. The Budget says that Commissioner Lang will cirenl- ate a petition ina few days and be- come a candidate for re-election again as anindependant. 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 during the past two years. OS aes \e 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 roasted 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.” Chase & Sanbom's Coffees, THE REAL THING : | HENRY HUGHES & C0. | & UNDERTAKING We have some choice bargains in Bed room sutts, Chifforintes and dressing lables in golden oak and mahogny, A conplete line of cubboards, sideboards, bookcaess and china closets Geo.
