That Panama Appropriation, Too much money often makes’ a man a fool. j It does no less for a nation. Louk at Panama, When Uncle Sam handed a few millions in cash to that little nation it was freely predicted that an era’ of dissapitation was about to arrive, The thing hasn’t reached the drunk-and-in-the-gutter stage yet, but the Panama government has appropriated $50,000 to send Gen. Huertas on a tour of investigation. He is expected to look over the mili« tary establishments of other nations» aud return home bloated with ideas, Of course, the general will have a good time while the money lasts, He will see Europe, and if there is any- thing that Europe enjoys better than a man with money to incinerate, it has not been named yet. France alone could give him a.run for the entire bunch of money, aud even force him to call for more And no man with his country’s welfare at heart could miss the |bave concluded marvelous military systen at Monte Carlo, where a fortune melts like strawberry ice cream in July. Panama has as much need of a military system as Switzerland has of a navy. There will be no very important disturbance jin that country in which the real policeman —Uncle Sam--will not have a say. The New York Sun wisely remarks that Panama would have shown a glimmering of sense had she invested the money in educating a squad of doctors in the best methods of fight- ing tropical diseases. To go further, $50,000 put in educa- tion would do niore for Panama than the investment of every dollar gotten 4 from the Umited Stated in uniforms and guns. What Panama needs is common sense.--St. Paul Daily News. For SaLe.—One team, one wagon one set sleighs, one buggy, and one set heavy draught harness, Inquire at Herald-Review, THE GLAIR CAMPAGIN Since the conditions in public af- fairs have shaped so favorable to Parker’s election the local cohorts that one victory in Itasca county would be some satis- faction. Register of Deeds A. B. Clair is their special target. Thev propose to defeat him. Why? Be- cause he has dared to be independent of the*‘gang;" because he has dared to defy them. Because he has had the manhood to spit in the face of the D. M. Gunn outfit from the first. They want to defeat him because he is popular with the people and because he has proved himself a friend of those who! needed a friend. Why should Clair be opposed for re-elec- tion? Let some man who is opposing him step -forward and give one valid reason. Has he not served the public asa public official well and faithfully? Yes, they reply. Why, then, do you seek to incompass his defeat? Be- cause he has dared to defy grafters. “We want all county officials to be in harmony with the skin game.” Will the people of the county tolerate the proposition ? The Herald-Review is mistaken in its judgment if the whole outfit of opponents to Clair are not turned down with a vengeance. In the next issue hereof the whole county propusition will be consid- ered in detail. Death of Alfred Keniston. Alfred Keniston, one of the pio- neers of this county, died last Satur- day night and he was laid to rest In Soldier’s cemetery Tuesday after noon, the services being held at the first Presbyterian church. Mr. Kenister was a native of New Hampshire, and came to Wisconsin in 1858 soon afterward removing to .i Minnesota, and has been a resident of Itusea county since 1867. He was a veteran of the civil war being one of the first to answer President Lidcoln’s first call for troops, and took part in many important battles, among them being the first battle at Gettysburg. in 1863, one of the most important of the war. Mr. Keniston is survived by one son, Frank, of Minneapolis, his wife and daughter having passed away before him. He also bas a living brother in Temple. Maine. Schooi Election This Evening At the village hall this evening, there will be an election for the pur- pose of electing a successor to Henry Hughes as a member of the school board. While not an active candi- date, Mr. Hughes will accept the office if elected, and as he has heen eminently satisfactory and conscien- tous in that position, there 1s no rea- son why the people of this district should not continue him in that office. It is the duty of every voter in the district to turn out and take an active interest in their school affairs. The Ogema to be Opened. McAlpine & McDonald will for- mally open their new summer hotel on Pokegama lake next Wednesday. This hotel is new throughout, and under the experienced managemens will equal any summer hotel in the state. Everyone is invited to go vut there next Wednesday. The band will be in attendance and there will be music and dancing. A Fortune in Animals. Gentry Bros. Famous Shows, which have been united for thls season, number among the personale of their Company to less than one hundred supurb, perfect, Shetland Ponies. At the consolidation of Gentry Bros. ‘Shows the stock was carefully inven- toried and only the very best re- tained, consequently, this season those appearing in the exhibition are the most aristocratic, well-bred in- telligent, animals in the entire world, and their cost alone, not in- cluding the many pains-taking years of slow tuition would represent an immense fortune. The animals are all seen to advan- tage in the superb street display, which in its augmented appearance makes it exceptionaily and is doubly worth seeing. The date of exhibi- tion of Gentry Bros. Famous Shows United has been definitely fixed in Grand Rapids Saturday July 23rd. Get prices on job work at the Herald- Reyiew office. i rald-Meview. Granp Rapips, Irasca Country, Minn., SaturDay, JULY 16, tg04. Two Dotiars A YEAR. EXTENSION OF NEW LOGGING ROAD Incorporation of . Minneapolis Rainy River Railway Company. and The Minneapolis & Rainy River Railway company has incorporated with a capitol stock of $1,000,00, and with prominent lumbermen of Chicago, Minneapolis and Muskegon, Mich., interested in the proposed new line. Authority is given the new com- pany by itsarticles of incorporation to build a line of railway from Minneapolis through the counties of Hennepin, Ramsey, Anoka, Isanit, Kanabec, Mille Lacs, Aitkin, Crow Wing, Cass and Itasca, and thence through Itasca county to the Rainy river, in Itasca county. The right is given to build a branch line from a point in section 30, township 59, range 26. to acunvenient point on the Big Fork river, and this is pro- bably the part of the railroad that will be built first, and will be used as g lugging railroad. PARKER WILL CARRY NEW YORK Predictions Freely Made That the New York Jurist Will Be Elected. The New York World has the folg lowing editorial comment on the Democratic nominee for president: Democrats in all parts of the state are confident that Parker will carry New York by a rvuusing majoirty Roosevelt never has been a great “vote getter” in this city or state: When he ran for mayor in 1886 he gct only 60,435 votes, while Erhart re- ceived 73,000 in 1888 and Kinstein 98,- 000 in 1892 as straight Republican candidates. When Mr. Roosevelt ran for gov» ernor in 1897, even the glamor of his Cuban war record, enabled him to beat Croker’s Van Wyck No. 2 by only 17,286 purality. Iwo years be- fore McKinley carried the state by 268,000. In 1894, before the Bryan blight, Gov. Morton carried the-state by 156,000'and the Republican candi- date fur secretary of the state was elected by 90,000 in 1895. Roosevelt’s course as president has not strengthened him in his own state. On the contrary, it has weak- ened him, Neither Platt nor Odell likes him. Conservative business men distrust him. Independent voters have been disappointed and disgusted at his cultivated alliances with most notorious spolismen of his party—Lou Payn being the latest. Parker has the confidence and es- teem of his own party and the respect ef the independent voters. He was elected tu the supreme court by the unaminous vote of both parties, and carried the state for chief judge of the court of appeals by 67,000 a year after the great landslide to McKinley. The Democratic party is united and enthusiastic for its candidate for president. ‘The masterful manner in which with a few simple, strong. honest words he brought order out of chaos at St. Louis and reunited and revivified the party has opened the way to another Tildea and Cleveland campaign. New Jersey and Cunnect- icut have a fixed habit of voting with New York in presidential elec- tions. Democratic leaders in those states are confident they will do so this year. The nomination of ex- Senator Davis for vice president re- moves any doubt that may have ex- isted as to West Virginia and Mary- land. and with the South solid, the carrying 6f any one of the debatable Western states will send Parker to the White house. It will encourage the Democrats of the whole Union to learn that Parker will go into the campaign with all his heart and mind—that he will be leader as well as candidate. It willbe a great and inspiring battle. Death of Gust Swanson. Gust Swanson, who was taken to the hospital last Saturday, suffering from typhoid fever, died Friday arter- noon at 1 o’clock. Deceased was 24 years of age. He was a member of the M. W. A., the Yeomans and Royal Neighbors, ‘Che funeral took place this afternoon at 2 o’clock from the Swedish Lutheran church and was attended by the members of the different societies to which he be. longed. He had been in the employ of John D. Loftberg for the past four years, and was a man of exemplary babits. His parents arrived here this morning. Keep cool by taking your ice cream at ‘Trainor’s Work your poll tax. This is good hay weather bat no hay. Go away back in the brush and sit down or try to make hay there. Mrs. T. P. Cook, went to Grand Rapids and back last Thursday. Miss Mary Cassidy was here from Grand Rapids on a visit betweea trains last Tuesday. Owen S. Kelly, took a run down to the city of very much flour last Wednesday, on business, H. E. Torey went up the river with some men last Tuesday to put ap hay and bale out the meadows. John Erickson is doing some needed improvemenst on his property in the _neighburnood of the Bass Brook Hotel. Skelly Bros. with a crew of 5 oré men and an outfit started last Wed- hesday to put up hay in the vicinity of Mininie lake. This corrospondent is anxiously awaiting the usual campaign boodle before ‘““knocking’’ for either Presi« dential candidate. Carl Nelson went to Park Rapids Minn., last Thursday a. m. in the capacity of refrigerator builder for the Minneapolis Brewing Co. A weeting of the Willing Workers of the first M. E. church of Conasset was held at the residence of Mrs. W. G. Moore, last Weduesday, p. m. ‘Two horses belonging to J. C. Gil- more were hit by a railroad locomotive the other night and one was so badly injured thatit was necessary to shoot it. After looking the field carefully over it is found to be a fact, that oflice of Justice of the peace is not of as much importance as those of County Attorney and Sheriff. With hook and line Chas. Brown brought the finest string of pisca- torial fish consisting of muskalonge, pickeral, pike and bass, that’s been eae here ip some time, about 50 in all. Andrew Dareholt after putting in some two months as counter hopper in ageneral store at Millaced Minn., got back here last Saturday and pulled out for his claim in 144-55 last ‘Tuesday. Chas. Dunton, Roxy Renington, and Mik wling, after seeing the famous Fourth and a few subsequent days safely over, went up into the Vermillion country, Cass county, for a much needed rest. Now that all fresh meats will go sky bigh on account of the strike and: - - pototoes next will be impossible to get, cornmeal, codfish, coffee, don- nakeedumpers and pancakes will make buily good chewing. A meeting of the Willing Workers, an auxilliary of the first M. E. churck of Cohasset, will be held at the resi- dence of J. C. Gilmore next Thursday July 21. All members are kindly asked to attend as matters of ims portance are under consideration. With such wild food animals in abundance as bears, moose, muskrats, deer, raccoons, rabbits, beaver, por- cupines, and squirrels and myriads of able fish in the lakes and rivers of county, and no gamié warden, what care we for the strike, anyway. Robert Hoffman. of Pine City, stopped off between trains last Tues- day.to have achat with old time ac~ quaintances. Bob is an all-around saw mill man_and was sent for to manage the Dumas mill at Starks Spur; after inspecting the plant and it nov suiting him he went back home. Oh yes, the trust busters! What little wild hay could’ve been got in this region is to be cut out by that dam water controiled by the govern- ment in order that feed for stock will be so high that the later will have to be disposed of at the mercy of the trust machine and conseduently. buy our beef from the same machine at option. In the postoftice a letter is posted up and signed by a goverment officia! to the effect that he as such official acting under the instructions of another ditto, has thrown the Leech lake dam open and closed down the Pokegama dam and warning those desiring to cut and cure hay on the river bottoms to keep off the grass as it were. This looks lke hitting a person with a club and telling him of it. Fred. McNaughton Sr. who has been in St. Mary’s hospital in Du- luth for about 2 months is out and able to be around. is the report that reached here last Thursday. Friends of “Uncle Mac’, as he is farmiliary called here, will be glad to hear of this.as Mr. McNaughton is one of our staunchest citizens, chairmap of the supervisers of the tuwn of Bass Brook, a- good neighbor and always has a good word for all. The pavilion which was in use on July Fourth for speaking, n.usic and dancing ix yet in commission. Make a steeple 20 or 30 feet long, fix a bell or some other rig capable of making a noise inside of it 60 that those in- terested will know when trouble begins. Place the steeple thusly eamtipped upon the building Sunday and leave it. there for that matter till such time as the edifice would be wanted for public meetings, election etc., when you can unscrew the steeple, take it down, lay it carefully away for further use and hoist your flag pole instead for election anyway. For dances you don’t need either pole or steeple. pe eee ee
