The fair last year was the most ambitious thing ever attempted in this line in the northwest and it way eminently suc- ceesful in every particular. The Minnesota state fair is far more Uhan a state fair; in the northwestern ex- position. ‘The fame of the fair has passed beyuud the boundries of the state and both exhibits aud visitors are now drawn Jargely from all the states of Lhe northwest even to the Pacific coast. The fair is one of the best single. advertising mediums which Minnesota has and the people of the state do well to encourage it by their attendance and their finan- cial support. It is very gratifying too to know that the fair is now on an admirable financial footing. The improvements and additiopal exhib- its promised for this year will make the fair the greatest local exhibi- tion in the westera continent. Koochiching, J. C. Chamberlaia, F, S.

The Republican county convention did not have the moral courage to en- dorse a legislative candidate, but sim- ply consented to support such candi- date if nominated and concluded by announcing that a candidate from any short and round. He pulled as hard ss a nine-pound pike or a fifteen | was in keeping with the arrangements : pound pickerel, and when “landed grated his teeth and squealed | a snared rabbit.—Itasca New. other county would do as well. — This ade some time ago in the interests of mn’s candidacy for railroad and ehouse commissioner, — Aw Irishman Nominated. The nomination of Robert C, Dunn as thé’ Republican candidate for gov- ernor of the stateof Minnesota was anaounced from St. Paul last evening about 10 o’clock. in the event of Mr. Dunn’s election Minnesota will have a native born Irishman as her chief executor, There is some satis- faction to the Herald-Review in the contemplation oi this possibility. In .the meantime it will behoove the Democrats to confirm the charges that have been made against Robert by his Republican friends. Won Out At Last. After many years of litigation M Mc Alpine has finally been awarded a verdict in the supreme court of the state in his claim against an” estate in which Frank N. Kratke of Thief River Falls was the appellant. ‘The decision carries with it a verdict of about $3,000 in favor of Mr. M. McAlpine. This, warm weather sugg:sts ice cream. ‘Have. you tried ‘Vrainor’s? _ | It’s always fresh. Dinner’ |EVERYBODY GOES TO COHASSET ee Big elebration at Cohasset on the Glorious Fourth, The people of Grand Rapids will adjourn all business matters on Mon- day next—the nation’s natal day— and go ta Cohasset ta celebrate the glorious fourth. The enterprising and public-spirited citizens of that town have been making preparations to entertain their visitors in a be- coming meznner and nothing has been left undone that might be calulated to make the event thoroughly en- joyable from sunrise of the Fourth until the close of festivities on the morning of the fifth: Among other interesting features will be asteam- boat ride up the Mississippi. That the people of Grand Rapids should turn out eu masse goes without say- ing. Cohasset is our nearest and friendliest neighbor; a constant patron of the county seat and might well be regarded a part of our daily business life. Every patriotic citizen of Grand Rapids should ve a Cohasset guest oo Monday next. Newspaper Influence. The Minneapolis Tribune is one Republican paper in this state that has not worked itself into frenzy over the gubernatorial fight and it is now pointing out to the Dunn and Collins organs that haye been denouncing their opponeuts the extremly awk- ward position they will be in if the convention nominates the candidate they have been abusing in all the moods and téases. Says the Tribune: “The Tribune has not cared to take part in the campaign of defamation of contending candidates for goveru- or that has disgraced the Republican press of the state. We would not lie about a democratic yellow dog as our esteemed contemporaries have lied about men, one of whom they will be begging peuple to vote for in a few weeks. What influence do these‘reckless journals expect-to exert in electorial campaign? The Pioneer Press in St. Paul and the Evening Journal here seem destitute of intel- Tectual power to realize the future consequences of their present acts. ‘That is one reason among others, why neither has much influence in public atiairs. This exacts common sence as well as a sence of decency. We are inclined to think that most sober- minded Republicans intend deliber- ately to make the best of whatever result may come from the convention. The furibund partisans wili have to do the same thing, little they may like it. They are the whole thing in a:cumpaign for the nomination: but they area drop in the ocean of elect= ors. There are not enough uncoi- porwising enimies of either Collins or Dunn to make a bolting mass con- vention, representing nobody but themselves. ‘These ranters make a deafeniys noise; but electorial results are reached without their aid.” There is another reason why none of these papers has much, if any, in- fiuence in public afiairs: They are party organs, and when they are not squabbling among themselves over their party’s nominations. they are attacking the democratic party with- out reason or decency. In this re- spect the Tribune is no better then the others. ‘There is nothing the Re- publican party and its leaders do which they do not praise. There is nothing the Democrats do which they fail to criticize and denounce. Is itany wonder that they are with- out influence with the people? It is because of the general disgust of the reading public w'th this course of the party organs that the independent press has gained the front rank in in- fluence. ‘The peuple want the news unbiased by partisan prejudice, and to get it they turn to the independent newspapers. They want opinions that are not twisted in an endeavor to benefit this or that political party, and again they turn to the independ- eat journals that are not tied down by party ties and are not influenced by a desire to conceal the truth that adversely affects one of the parties or benetits the other. The day of the party organ has ended, as far as any is the independent newspaper, free and uptrammeled by partisan prejud- ice and affiliatious, that is looked to ‘by the public for unbiased news re- ports and, honest opinions. — Duluth Herald.
