thusiasm. ERE reer wT Oe oe Published Every Saturday. By B. C. KILEY. tW9 DOLLARS A YAR IN ADVANCE Entered in the Postoffice at Grand Rapids, Minnexdti, ts Second-Class Matter _ Tris Dovst is from the Big Fork Compass: “Dan Gunn of Grand Rao ids wants to be railroad commissions et. He willspass—on a railroad pass, as usual.’ — a “Dre Detuocrats have concluded that their only hope is in Grover Glevelund,” says the Virginia Vir- ginian. She Democrats havn't con- eluded atything of the kind.” Grover Cleveland is not a Democrat, and if he were a Candidate for the presidency today he would receive more Republi- can than Democratic votes. The Herald-Review would rather vote for the ghost of Mark Hanna than for Cleveland. so ‘wie Minneapolis ‘Tribune calls Cleveland a Roosevelt Democrat and says it would like ‘to see the Demo- crats nominate the big Jobster from Princeton. It is because of his simi- larity to Roosevelt and because pa- like the Tribune endorse Cleves pe : jand that the Democrats will not nominate him. Cleveland is not a Democrat. a eRe Broviek Keecw of the Aitkin In- dependent sizes up the political situ- ation very correctly in the following brief paragraph: ‘Democrats May be having «a great deal of trouble because they don’t know who their next nominee will be, buta good many Republicans feel even more worried because they-are sure who their man will ve.” ee, ee JupDGE Parker of New York is gaining fover with a class of Demo- crats whose sincerity and patriotism cantiet be questioned. - But the fact that /he is backed by David B.

With the endorse~ ment of Hill and Clevleland Parker cannot be nominated. STAT NATOR MILLER, editor of the Luverne Herald, a prospective candidate for congress from the Second district, and a staunch Re- publican, voices this sentiment in the last issue of his’ paper: “The Stand-Patter,’ has planted himself squarely in the pathway of progress and commands the party to halt. He tells the great-army of voters who have been wont to think for them- selves that they don’t know what is vest for them—that the variff sched- sacred and must not be changed—that reciprocity is a nice thing to talk about but a poor thing to put into practice. He would have the party abandon progress and take uw rest—discard the thought of mak- things better and ‘let well enough alone.’ ” wise old dog Tray. ules are ing > Tue HERALD REVIEW rises to cor- rect both the Grand Rapids Magnet and the Deer River News. The honor- ible Ed Ryan, once a member of the state legislature from this district, was aresident of Cass county when elected. die owned and operated a farm in the southern part of that county. His postoffice was Staples. Itimade very little difference, how- ever, where be lived, so far as his leg- islative record .goes. He was about ona par with Cole-and the only men- tion ever made of either of them was in the Blue book, and Ryan madea mistake in locating himself. ——_-e- “TALK about good roads. Read about good roads. Offer suggestiuns to the board of public works and all oflicials inanyway connected with ruad building and improvement,” says the Duluth News Tribunce. ‘Well con- structed public highways appeal to all the people—the farmer, the mer- chant, the school patrons and pupils, and, in fact, everybody, and they do more than any other one thing to de- velop productive agricultural regions out of waste lands, and build up healthy, solid towns by enabling the producer and merchant and consumer to keep in close touch with each -other thus and establish a good mar ket.for products.” —-. A warty of Igorates, dog-eating deyotees from our Philipine posses- sions, are in St. Louis wherethey will be exhibited during the fair. After landing in the big Missouri town our recently adoped brothers kicked for dog on the daily menu card. The request was made public through the press whereupon the humane society protested in behalf of the dogs. Arrangements had been made with the official canine cathers of the city | to provide the colony with fresh dog meat every day, but the kind . | ing brethren. a vigorous kick. “The “Igorates located without the. city limits, how- eyer, and they will be supplied with their favorite delicacy dispite the protests. The Herald-Review is tn- able to understand wherein the home- less curs were to be benefitted by be- | ing kept from the vables of our visit- By authority of city | ordinance they are put te death, and } why it should be considered more cruel to eat a choice @og steak than {a porterhouse beef steak is uot nob clear to our reasoning faculties. By all means Jet the Igorate boys have all the dog rvat they want. ASA SEC Sta a Eptror C. M. ATKINSON of the Mesaba Ore, Hibbing, objects to the buttinski proclivites of the Grand Rapids Magnet, and the Herald-Re- view is inclined to favor Atkinson in his protest. Friend Stuart may feel a feeling of interest in the St. Louis county legislative fight, bein’s he mixed thereaway for several seasons, but he should remember that it goes against the grain with life-long Re- publicans, like the editor of Ore, to see a flopper like Paddy Dowling get legislative honors the same year he breaks into the party ranks. if the Herald-Review were a Republican pa- per published in the Forty-ninth dis- trict it would iusist upon the nomin- ation of Atkinson for the legislature. He would make an able represent ative, und he deserves well at the hands of the party for which he has battled in Michigan and Minnesota for nigh unto twenty years. Aud we wouid also insist upon Paddy Dawling remaining a meek and tuwly member on probation until he had taken the third degree. pie ee A PARTY LEADER. The International Falls Echo edit- or was in Graud Rapids as a delegate to the late Republican county con- vention and he was evidently made wise as to who’s who in Republican politics of Itasca county. He wasa guest at the Hotel Pokegama. Tbe following is an excerpt from an Echo editorial in the last issue of that paper: Mr Gunn has for years been a wheelhorse in Republican ranks in this county, aud the influence of his party work has not been confined to his home county but has been felt throughout the state. He bas spared neither time nor money in his efforts to advance the cause of Republicanism, and the fact that this county has nev- er failed to give the head of the ticket a good majority is largely due to the efforts of Mr. Gunn. It ,has been made painfully ap- parent to Mr. Gunn that “his party influence has not been confined to his own county.” Hé bears the proud distinction of being the only man who ever ran on the Republican tick- et asa candidate for the legislature who did not carry Itasca county. In 1896 he was opposed by the late D. W. Doran who defeated him in this county By 112 votes. The other counties of the district, where he was not known, carried him through successfu'ly, but the vote in his home county demonstrated Mr. Gunn's influence with the peuple who know him best. His politieal Wi ence in the village of Grand Rapids has been repeatedly shown by his ouerwhelming defeat. As an illus- tration, he was very much interested in the late village election and the ticket that he was responsible for getting up and which received his backing, polled 83 votes out of a total of 412. He has been elected president of the village, but only when he . as been permitted to run without op- position. The work done, by the council of which he was the head has been twice repudiated when. the acts of that council was the issue. The Echo man’s source of imformation as to the political influence of D. M. Gunnin Grand. Rapids and Itasca county must. have been a little bi- ased or ignorant of the facts. PROCEEDINGS: Of Village Council, Village of Grand Rapids, Minnesota. A regular meeting of the Village council of the village of Grand Rapids. Minn., was called toorder by President Riddell in the recorder’s office Monday evening, April 11, 1904,8 P.M.
