Chambers & Clough of the Palace Restaurant, wade unusual prepara- tions for Thanksgiving dinner and the guests of that popular cafe were in a truly royal manner. Messrs Chambers & Clough are chefs who stand at the head of the cl and when they make a special effort to serve the pnblic some rare dishes may be looked for. The dinner last) Thursday was one of anusual merit tracted large number of guests to the Palace. The bill of fare | prepared was printed and circulated thronghout the village and it con- | tained such a variety of rare delica- cies Lhat a dyspeptic would be temp- ted to grow fat upon reading it. Oys-} ters fresh from Baltimore were served in every style; roasts of turkey, beef, the famous West Virginia ’Possum with sweet potatoes and Kentucky corncake, barbecued pig, domesticand wild duck, goose, chicken, etc., made | up the meats of the menu.

Political Advertising, During the campaign nervous Repu- blicaus were accustomed to say. ‘*Cer telyou is a lightweight. He doesn’t know where he is at. Ob, for Hanna”. Results have proven that Mr, Corte- lyou not only knew where he was at but he was up-to-date. There was general apathy. People would not taik polities and it: was disicult to get them to attend politi- | new. aristocracy, deuocracy and all other | Itasca Mercantile Co. cal meetings. Curtelyou knew they were reading the newspapers and ma- yazines and he began advertising. Special, well-written articles occupy- ing pages and double pages in the magazines and selected newspapers were used. In fact it is an open secret that this advertising was the largest item in the bill of exper These advertisements were adroitly written. Roosevelt was exploited There was very little about politics. Sketches and extracts from the pr dent’s speches and books were used. Cortelyou weil understood that while the Awerican people like principles they like them best when embodied ina man, The man Roosevelt was the theme. Results justified the expenditure for advertising. In these days of large newspaper and magazine circulation there is only ope way to get publicity and that is to buy spa Its judicious use will work wynders.—St. Paul News. The Foik issue. Just honesty. ‘Thou shall not steal. When Moses said it, it was already old, When Rolk said it) it wes still It runs through auiocracy, forms of goverument, and if it doesn’t vivify them th ure dead. The elec tion in Missouri weut to the roots of ife. . Just honesty. Why should a man who believes in it be reviled as a revo- lutionist? Because the business men who were advancing their interests in Missouri by bribery regarded any change as a revolution’ They wanted no change. They were conservatives. Folk wanted a big change. He was aradical. There was no telling how far he mighc go. If he objected to having business interests coutrol the legislature by bribery he might ob- ject to having them control it by dis- crimination in freight rates. He might get flightier and tightier till he was as insane as La Foilette. _ Meanwhile he gives no indications of having anything in mind except honesty. Honesty has elected bita Democratic governor of » Missouri.— Chicago ‘Tribune, ‘ | * A Government Bridge. | i | tion during the fishing and” hunting | nesty with the lords of crea Hon. C. C. McCorthy is in receipt of a letter from Stillman H. Bingham, secretary to Congressman Bede, in which it is stated that the assistant secretary of war advises him that the construction of a wagon bridge has been authorized across the Mississippi river in connection with the govern- t.ent dam at Pokegama Falls, The bridge is to be constructed and main- tained at government expense. A petition was circulated last winter asking the department of war to couse the construction of the bridge and Mr. eMcCarthy presented the matter to Congressman Bede. The bridge at that point will be a great convenience to settlers cu the south side of the river and the business men of Grand Rapids will be much benefitted through the additional trade that will come to thisvillage asa result of its construction. A similar wagon bridge was buiit by the goveru- ment at Winnebigoshish dam. Got All the Law Allows. M.S. Burrows and Dr. W. H. Magie of Duluth, accomparied by Miss Murray, niece of Mr. Burrows, and Mrs. Magie, arrived in Grand Rapids Sunday from Irve Martin’s resort: at the head of Big Trout lake. The members of the party were in high spirits, except Miss Murray who had lost her pet spaniel on the trip to town. The doctor end Mr. Burrows brought in all the deer to which they were entitled under the law — three each. Mrs. Magie and Miss Murray provided the camp with grouse and partridge during the outing and had they been in possession of a pair of rifles it is more than probable that they would have returned with a half dozen deer to their credit. Dr. Magie played the limit of the Jaw in about one minute. Out of a bunch of five he got three deer and but fur a short- age of cartridges he might have se- cured the quintet. This is Mr. Burrows’ third trip to the Trout lake district and he is so well pleased with the location and the game and fish to be found there- abouts that he has secured a tract of land on which he and Dr. Magie will erect a cottage for their aecommoda- seasons, Beats the Record. John Hepfel and Bert Pierson have made the banner record for bagging moose and deer thus for this season. They returned from the Big Fork country after a week’s hunt with six deer and two mammoth moose. If there were any caribb in the vicinity where they hunted they would have captured at lest a pair of them and had 1t not been for the stern madates of the law they would have brought in several more of each variety. Work of the Moose Liar. A “string fiend’? on the Duluth Evening Herald tells a thrilling story of Dr. W. H. Magie’s experience while hunting in the Big Troutlake district last week. The “flend’’ relates the killing of a moose by the doctor while it was engaged in deadly combat with a fellow bull moose. The story is wholly the creation of a mose diseased mind ard has no foundation in fact. The doctor didn’t even see a moose track on his trip into the wilds of Itasc county, but he did bag three deer in a hurry. one of which was large enough to play moose. Leap Year Is W Te Only a Jittle while remains in which the fair sex will have authority of custom to assert their rights on social ethics and dictate terms of social am- pion. This Leap year is rapidly nearing its death day, and four years is a long time to wait until the fair maidens will again assume the reins of social yovern- ment. ~ Before the advent of 1905 they should bestir themselves vo take ad- vantage of this grand oppornity to do the gallant by providing an euter- tainment fur the brothers, sons and papas of Grand Rapids. The dancing party given by the ladies of the vil- lage in the beginning of the year was unanimous!y voted to have been the most enjoyable evept of the season, and a repetition of their efforts as entertainers would doubtless be the means of establishing reciprocal rela- tions between the. young ladies aud gentlemen of Grand Rapids that would last all through, the) coming four years of masculine domination. ‘This suggestion is made at the request of several young gentlemen who ex- pect to be remembered with invita- | tions when the leap year dance. is given. Thanksgiving Day. f& shouldn’t requirea formal an@ grandiloquent ‘state paper from the president of all the states and from the governor of each one, to inform the people that the last Thursday in November has been set apart as a day of special and general thanksgiving and praise for the many blessings the year has brought us. For nearly half | a century that day has been invariably named by proclamation of the func- tionaries mentioned as Thanksgiving Day, forcing the inference that it will not do to leave the observance of the day to the religious and grateful dis- position of the people, as it is felt safe to leave the observance of Fourth of July and Decoration Day to the peop- le’s patriotic disposition and impulse, says Farm, Stock & Home. Now that the last Thursday in No- vember has been made by leng custom the day of national thanksgiving to God for His goodness aud favors dur- ing the year, is it not a refiection upcn both our reverence and grati- tude that we must be prodded into observance of the day by formal no- tice from our earthly rulers? But for this high official reminder would our people forget to be thankful and to exptess their thankfulness? If yes, then is not the day’s trne significance largely lost? Is there nut a want of sincerity and reverance in the thanks- giving that we must be reminded to bestow by official pronouncement? If it were a day devoted to thanksgiving and praise it doubtless would require official proclamation to secure its ob servance. But while Thanksgiving Day 1s one of feasting and Fourth of July is a day of noise infernal, official announcement of their coming will not be necessary. Blow Up a Dam. One night last week the dam at the head of Deer river, operated under charter by John Headquist, was blown up by four charges of dynamite. The dam is not totally destroyed and can be easily repaired. The deed is sup- posed to have been done by some set- tler whose land has been demaged by the dam being there.—Itasca News. Shot Stitt’s Mule. Bob Stitt was down yesterday from his headquarter logging camp in sec= tion 29, 63-23, and reports that one of his best mules was recently shot for a moose. Mr. Stitt has a suspicion that ‘Daft? Campbell, the Duluth “deadshot”. who last fall rode a bull moose bareback across Itasea county, did the job. Bob is feeding mule steaks to City Editor Jackson of the Duluth News Tribune, who is stop- ping at the camp.—Hibbing Ore. A Beneflt Supper. The good ladies of the village have arravged for a beuetit supper to be given this evening in the Lenv build- ing on Kindred avenue for aid of the family of John Levire. Several months ago Mr. Levere met with an accident which caused the loss of a foot. He is stil) confined to his home and unable to work. Those who will contribute to this worthy undertak- ing ou behalf of the ladies will be helping a deserving family that is unavoida ly in distre Claiming Too Much. Some of our county contemporaries have been crediting commissioner- } elect Neil Mullias up to the Republi- can party, and the Herald-Review rises to correct the error. Mr. Mullins the Democratic nominee for com- missioner of the Fifth district and was elected by a handsome majority. He is one of the wheelhorses of Ltasca county democraty.
