Dowling, representative in the state legislature from the Forty-ninth dis- trict, pays the following compliment to Candidate Martin Hughes: “Phe Mesaba range is again honored by of one of her favored sons receiving the nomination on the Democratic ticket for congressional representative. This is no small houor and if it cannot be considered wore than recognition, or tribute to our leeal citizen for his peculiar fit- ness for such a calling, it is, to say tbe least, a mark of respect and an honor to the Mesaba range. Thisis the time the Mesaba range honored with the Demo- cratic nominee for congress being named from our citizens. ‘Two years ago Mr. M. L. Fay of Virginia re- ceived the nomination for congress from the Democratic party. He was of course much behind tbe race; from the fact that this district is so over- whelmiogly Republican. Now Martin Hughes of Hibbing, bas been chosen by the same party. Mr. Hughes is one of the bright Jights of the bar of He is a strung man for the party be represents and if Martin could get Lo congress frem this districthe wouldcertainly make a good congressman. Besides being a Drilliant member of the bar of this county, a splendid public speaker, a good debater, a logical reasoner, and a hard worker, he is a clean man, an ideal citizen. There is litule doubt but what Martin Hughes, of Hibbing, will receive a good vote on the Mesaba range, for most all citizens feel that it isan honor to have one of our local men chosen from this seetion of the state for this office, and although there is no hope of Mr. Hughes being sent to congress from this district as against Mr. Bede, yet it will no doubt be surprising the complimentary vote Mr. Huglies will receive.” pa Se ONE ASS ror McCarray is a very poor politician, else ke would have had Caddington kill old man Kerrig dur- ing his administration of the county attorney’s office, so that be could claim the glory of ha ving sent him to tbe penitentiary. second has been Ss PROCEEDINGS Of Village Council of Village Grand Rapids, Minnesota. 4 regular meeting of the Village Council of the village of Grand Rapids, Itasca, county Minnesota, was called to order in the record- er’s office, Monday, September 12. 1901, 8 o'clock p m.

While hun- dreds of people annually visit’ this county it bas ouly been by chance that they heard of its many attrac- tions and came to investigate. These visitors are invariably charmed with what they find and the praises of ltasca that they sing are heard by others. It is only in this manner that any advertising has been done, e pt thater our enterprising real estate men. ‘Their circulars and maps are devoted to the land and its productiveness. Little attentiou is given to that great body of men and women from all over tbe country who annually seek rest and recreation near Lo nature’s heart. The fishing that is to be found here is excelled nowhere in the north coun ry; ia big game thé possibilities are a delight to any true sportsman. ‘The visitor may start in almost any direction from Grand Rapids and tind suitable accommodations at regular summer resorts or with farmers who are pre- pared during the fishing and hunting seasons to give satisfactory attention to the: wants of visitors. Of regular summer resorts there are a great many located on the lakes through- out the county wherg the very best service may be had at reasonable prices. The best known and most popular of these is that owned and conducted by David Cochran on beautiful Waubana lake, sixteen taining seventeen rooms, all heatly furnished throughout. It was com- pleted about one year ago at a cost of over five thousand dollars. The Wau- bana postofflce, Dave Cochran post+ master, is one of Lhe conveniences to be found here. A launch, eapable of carrying forty people, propelled by a six-horse power gasolene engine, be- sides many row boats, are con- stantly at the seryice of Mr. Cochran’s guests, A large house boat is also among the comforts that Mr. Cockran |. offer his guests. Waubana lake is located in the very heart of the deer and moose district of the county. Leaving the Cochran home a direct ran of ten miles may be made by boat to the head of Big Trout lake. The latter is the most prolific producer of lake trout of any water to be found in this sec- tion. Waubdana ts famous for the size and quality of her black ba By making stort portages the lak of Burnt Shanty, Island, Sand, John- son and Spider are reached, where biack bass, pike and Great. Northern pike are to be had for the casting. Messrs, Louusberry & Simmons of Cedar Rapids, lowa have just com- pleted the erection of an ideal sum- mer home a short distance from the Cochran place. The gentlemen are the owners of several thousand acres of land in the Waubana district. Mr Simons of Miuneapolis has/ also erested a beautiful retreat just to the east of Mrs, Cochran’s — resort where he entertained a large number of friends during the past sunner. Perhaps that which would prove most desirable to visitors, aside from the fishing and hunting, is the pro- has to miles uorth of Grand Rapids. v ‘and his excellent family. r bial hospitality of Mr. Cochran ‘The stranug- COCHRAN’S POPULAR RESORT ON WAUBANA LAKE.
