Much Needed Repair.. Archie McWilliams is doing some good work on Grand Rapids-Nash- wauk road. The county commis- sioners made an appropriation of $500 for improvements. Beginning at the Accturus he will make repairs a dis- tance of ten miles, which wil) bring the work up to Oxhide lake. Five hundred dollars spread over a dis- tance of ten miles cannot build much new road, but with the amount al- lowed be is doing a great deal of good, Will Log at Bena. Bemidji Pioneer: Wm. P. Blakely, the senior member of the logging firm of Blakely & Farley, of Farley, left ov the noon train for Bena where he will look .after the building of three camps which will be used by them this winter to put in about three million feet of logs the coming winter. The timber to be cut is on the reservation and will ve hauled iuto the Mississippi riyer ‘and driven down that stream to Minneapolis, The Supervisors of the Township of Iron Range Are Investing Their Tax Allow- ance in Public Roads, eee The officials of Iron Range town- ship, of which Dr, R. J. Lewell, is chairman, have undertaken their duties in a business-like ~ man- ner. Every dollar that can possibly be converted into the road fund will be used fur highway building and im- provements. The township now has $650 which will at once be expended on the roads. This is one tuwnship that is fortunate in having a set of officers who are alive to the real needs of the people, and who will expend the revenues entrusted tu them to the best possible advantage. With the mining interests now being developed in Iron Range that township — is rapidly becoming the most impor- *tuntin the covnty. Every business man in Grand Rapids is interested equally with those who are engaged in mercantile or other pursuits at the village of Bovey, and their in- fluence should be brought to bear with the county board tu aid in the improvement of the Grand Rapids- Nasbwauk road. No part of this public highway is in good condition, | but from Oxhide lake to Nashwauk, a distance of about four miles, it is almost impassible with a buckbuard. It is a disgrace to the county. If there is no way that the buard can provide ineans to improve this road the Herald-Review would advise dis- organization of the county and turn the management of affairis over to Aitkin or some other reighbor. This last resort, however, we sincerely hope will not be necessary. Let the county board emulate the good ex- ample set by the trustees of Iron Range township and they will give satisfaction and receive the ever- lasting thanks of a grateful public. Cohasset Cullings Some of us will have to go to work after next Tuesday. Jno. Costello of Grand Rapids, he of lager beer fame, was here ‘l'uesday. James Murchie, county surveyor, was in town last Monday shaking hands with acquaintances. Not much news “from here this week.

Mr. Joseph McMahon, candidate for Judge of Probate and the old Democratic war horse, Dan. McCormick, were here the same day. Mother and Son Dead. The death of Mrs. John Gray; noted in these columns last week, was under particularly pitiful circumstances. The decident had been a sufferer from Brigats disease for some time and the family were in such condi- tion financially ‘that she rebelled against the expense that hospital treatment would incur. Finally her children insisted on bringing her tu Grand Rapids from the humestead on Leech river and there she died three days later.
