C. H. MARR TELLS OF ITASCA TOWNS The Grand Rapids Merchant is Inter- viewed by a News Tribune Reporter. C. H, Marr, of Grand Rapids, owner of the townsite of Deer River, and of touch real estate in Grand Rapids, is at the Sy Louis, says the Duluth News Tribune of Tuesday last. He says that a great deal of building will be done this season in thuse towns. In Grand Rapids, he says, there are how assured 20 new dwellings that will cost anywhere from $2,000 to 96,000 each. He figures that Deer River will take on quite a boum this season, and says there are a number of new business enterprises figurin® on going in there. Mr. Marr says that the opening of the agricultural lands in the Chippewa reservations, sched- uléd‘for June 16, will give a great im- petus to all thg towns in northern Minnesota from Grand Rapids tu Be- midji. ys MR. PERREAULT IN TROUBLE AGAIN A Former Business Man of Grand Rapids Has Trouble With His Wife. The following from the Bemidji News, relates tu a former resicent of Grand Rapids: ‘“M. Perreault, of Farley, Monday waiyed examination in Judge Reynolds courtand was bound over to the grand jury on a charge of house breaking, preferred by Mrs. Stanche, of Farley. Iv appears that after some trouble between Mr. Perre- ault and his wife, which has been brewing for some, time and has been aired inthe local courts, Mrs. Perre- ault tuok refuge in Mrs. Stanche’s house. Perreault forced entrance dur- ing the night, it is alleged. It was also stated in local a paper that after the vccurance Mr, Perreault left the country. This ‘is not true, as he merely went to Brainerd on some business matters, befure any warrant was issued.. Sheriff Bailey wired Perreault at Brainerd that there was a warrant for bis arrest, and went down Monday and served the papers, | FARMER’S PART IN COUNTY FAIR Some Valuable Suggestions by A. J. MeGuire of the Experiment Farm. The true purpose of an agricultural fairis to improve the agricultural: couditious of the state or county in which it is held. No matter what the gate receipts may be, if the farm- ers do not receive some instruction or inspiration that will result in bet- ter farming, the purpose of the fair has failed. Itasca county is hardly recognized as an agricultural county by most of the state. True, the ax and the saw is still heard and in their trail is the desolation of a fallen forest. Itisa fact that conditions in Itasca coun- ty at the present time, are not the most favorable fur farming, but it should be borne in mind that it is not always the conditions that determine success or failure but it is the effort put forth. With intelligent effort there is no reason why much of Itasca county cannot be made as productive as any part of the state. r While corn may not mature and the amount of fruit that can be raised may be limited, conditious are most favorable for the growth of vege- tables, roots and grain, and especially for clover, vue of the most important crops that can be grown. It should be remembered that it was not many years ago that the corn crop was an uncertainty one hundred miles farth- er svuth and the apple orchard con- sidered impossible. Through |im- provement the corn fields and the apple orchard are ‘extended fartker north every year. Improvement should be the farmers constant aim, and especially iu a new country, with fertile fields, and piants and animals of superior quality, the same amount of labor that uows gues to gain a meager living would result in most profitable returns, § A county fair may be made the means of bringing about much im- provement. While the premiums of- fered are necessarily small it should be borne iu mind that the greatest That's whet we're all after — 4 a 3 2 i ery transac! - tticular interests of Grand Rapids| both revurning Monday.

It is expected that the Great Northern road will be ex- tended from Nashwauk to Grand Rapids, passing through Bovey. There is reason for the promoters of Bovey midji fire department had calculated to attend both the tournaments at Hallock and Grand Rapids, but the managements of those enterprises selected the same dates. ‘The Be- medji team is in honor bound to at- tend the Grand Rapids event, and it is understood that a majority of the boys feel that way.

Third, the Independent is not perfectly willing to go into court over the matter. Fourth, peo- ple whose vpinivns are worth consid- eration pay a great deal attention to what the Herald-Review says. Fifth, the circulation of the Independent is oaly one-half that of the Herald- Review. Sixth, the Independent is uot the official paper of Itasca coun- ty. Seventh, it will not receive pay for doing county printing. Eighth, it does not andcannot render as efficient service as any paper in the county. Ninth, it did not state the status of the county printing matter. Yenth, the Independent is a liar.

McHugh at Cohassett and the result of their visit was a rough house for a few minutes. Mr, Mc- Hugh caused the arrest of the two men, who assaulted him. It appeared from evidence that White owed McHugh a bill for goods tor which the mer- chant mailed him a statement once a Hugh replied that he had given him credit for the amount -and he would find it receipted for on_ his his next moathly statement. White wanted a receipt. at cnce and Mr. McHugh said he would give him one and sat down at his desk to make it out when White assaulted him, McHugh was getting the best of the first round when Michaud interefered and between the two, the man of business was pret- ty badly pounded about the head and face. A traveling man intereferea and succeeded in seperating the beliger- ents, A warrant was issued for White and Michaud and they were brought to Grand Rapids. The matter was settled out of court, White paid the costs in the case and settled his bill with Mr McHugh. See us for Job Work. Stud Book of America and also in France.

Editor A. M. Greely pays the Her- ald-Review the following compli- ment in the last issue of his Big Fork Compass: “The Grand Rapids Herald-Review is the only genuine, ever-Democratic paper in the county, and yet its influ- euce must be as great as that of the dozen Republican papers of the coun- ty. else how do you account for the democratic control of the chief coun- ty offices? Pie aud plunder has played the devil with the Republican party of this county and the Herald-Ke- view has been the most vigilant in tracking the pieman. It never mis- ses and opportanity to create discurd in the Republicau ranks, heyce the resent disorder.
