Grand Rapids BeratdeMReview Published Every Saturday. By E. C. KILEY. TWO DULLARS A YEAR IN ADVANCE Entered in the Postoffice at Grand Rapid Minnesota, as Second-Class Matter, AS TO LEGAL NEWSPAPERS. The Magnet prints what purports to be an extract from a state law pre- a legal newspaper in the state of Minnesota, which states taat omission of publication for more than ecribing two consecutive weeks is necessary in order to render it ineligible to pub- lish matters required by law to be published. If Editor Cross is operat- ing on that theory he will find him- self alone some day with no court to sustain his opinion. If the Magnet will get the opinion of some reliable attorney it will find that under the present laws of Minnesota it is only necessary to omit one publication in order to knock it out of the legal newspaper arena. As_ heretofore stated the Herald-Review is the only legal paper published at the county Itasca It may he necessary to prove this assertion in but it will be done, gentlemen, 1 may be sure of that. seat of county. court. A PROFITABLE TERM Continued from First Page. had a tendency to hold many of the ls in school another year, for inge to say the course seemed to appeal to the girls more than to the boys. Undoubtedly this was due to the fact that shorthand and type- writing was offered as one of the sub- The course not only las kept many in schoul that would otherwise have left, but those who are pursuing work are doing all that was an- ipated for them. The other enter- prise that has succeeded beyond ex- ctations is the savings bank. ‘This unct of the schools was organized with some doubt as to its merits and The results of the past eleven weeks bave more than justi- tied those who were instrumental in getting the movement started, and parents and pupils have responded in wonderful manner. The de- have shown a marked in- crease from week to week, and the boys and girls of Grand Rapids now have over $400 to their credit in the savings fund of the School Savings bank. Thus it can be seen that en- terprise promises to exceed the high- est expectations of its organizers. lt cannot be said that the pight school has been the success that was hoped for it. The enrollment at the beginning was sixteen, but this num- ber bas dwindled down to less than half. The causes are several. Some ject jects. the success a most posits who began the work left town, and thers found they had undertaken more than they anticipated, the work becoming too burdensome for them. ‘Those who staid by the work deserve the highest commendetion, for itis to be noted that among them are some of the busiest people in town, The night school did not appeal to those deficient in the rudiments of the common branches, but attracted only those who desired to improve themselves in commercial law, books keeping, aud to make a start in short- hand. It is to be noted that an attempt has been made to improve the scholar- ship of the High school by raising the passing mark from 70 to 75 per cent. Now the passing mark of the High school is as high as that of any school in the state. It is hoped that this change will not cause fewer to gradu but tbat it will be an incentive to greater effort on the part of the pupils to get as much as possible from the opportunities that are presented to them, While reviewing the more practical work of the past four months, the Uhings that make school life a pleas- ure and help to create a favorable sentiment for the school, and thus stimulate, vetter work, should not be forgotten. A High school literary was organized for tbe purpose of stimulating debate and developing the ability of standing before an audience and speaking. Much inter- est has been manifested in this work, and the teachers have found greater rhetorical ability in the schools than was supposed. Supt. Freeman has asked the schools of Hibbing, Cass Lake, Bemidji aud Fosston to enter a debating contest with the Grand Rapids schools, and it is hoped that these schools will respond to the in- yitation, After the holidays the pro- grams of the High schoul will be open to the public. The football season closed with much honor to the boys and the ate, victories to their credit but because of the manly spirit of the boys and the good reputation they won for the school. The boys have always proven themselves to be gentlemen in all their sports. In this they have not only given the boys of the school a good name but have reflected credit upon the community. “The season closed with Grand Rapids high school team champions of the Range. The Board of Education has added a must excellent incentive to the use- fulness of the school hy fitting up the gymnasium in a first-class manner. After the holidays the gymnasium will be opened to the boys of the eighth grade and High school several evenings each week. Thus the boys will havea fit place to spend their time and will have less temptations thrown in their way.

DOINGS IN DISTRICT COURT District court wasadjourned Thurs- day at 5 o’cloek by Judge Spooner for one week, The case of the state ex rel., Sam Martin vs. M. A. Spang, auditor of Itaeca county, was on trial when the Herald-Review went to press last Saturday. Mandamus proceedings were brought to compel the county auditor to pay over to relator the sum of two hundred dollars, amount of a claim allowed by the board of county commissioners for work done under contract on one of the county roads. An issue was framed in which the county attorney claimed that he had prepared and filed a notice of appeal against the allowance of the claim in the office of the county auditor. This was denied by ex-County Auditor Far- rell and ex-Deputy Auditor McAJlis- ter, and the facts seemed to bear out |. their testimony. A jury was empan- eled on Saturaay morning and after a trial lasting until six o'clock the jury retired to decide the special issue sub- mitted tothem, After being out ail night the: jury was unuble to agree upon a verdict and was discharged by the court at 9 o’cluck Surday morn- ing. C.C. McCarthy represented re- lator. It is reported that the jury stood 11 for relator and 1 for respond- ent, Mr. Spear. The state vs. Samuel Hill wasa case of assault in the second degree. The defendant pleaded guilty and was sentensed to work hard for two years in the state’s prison. C. L. Pratt de+ fended. 5 Wm. Bodenheimer, the printer who forged the name of A. L. LaFranier, publisher of the Independent, to or- ders on the Itasca and Hughes stores, pleaded guilty to forgery in the sec- ond degree and was sentensed toa term of three years in the state’s prison. C. UL. Pratt defended. Philip Dwver pleaded guilty to the crime of petit larceny. Dwyer is the man who actively engaged in business by entering Storey’s taxidermist shop and appropriating considerable gouds. Pratt was appointed by the court to defend. Court cases were then taken up and after several had been heard court adjourned until December 28 at | 9o’clock In the forenoon when the | following eases will be called: State of Minnesota vs. B. H. Ward and B. F. Boyd, charged with the un- lawful killing of game; state vs. Wm, E. Gilson, charged with manslaugh- ter. Court will adjourn again for | New Years and convene on January 2, 1906, when the following cases will be called: State vs. Michael Calahan, James Clingenpeel, grand larceny second degree; James Cooper, selling liguor without a license, After these cases have been tried Judge Spooner will leave for Park Rapids to open a term of courton January 9, and Judge McClenahan will come here and open court on January 15, for the trial of the fol- lo wing cases: C.C Miller, grand larceny second degree; Joseph H. Gardner, murder in the second degree. New Meat Market E. F, Kauffman and A. D. Cour- teau have opened a meat market in the Lent block on Kindred avenue and are now ready for business, For some weeks they |have been doing a a semi-wholesale business on First street. It is said they quote lower prices than have -heretofore prevailed in Grand Rapids and that they have already built up quite a thnving busi- ness. Their place will be known as “The Grand Rapids Market.” Messrs. Kauffman & Courteau are. practical meat men and good business hustlers, ‘They extend an invitation to the peo- ple of Grand Rapids and vicinity to call and get prices. They carry the very best of everything. in the meat line. Christmas at Hill City. The people of Hill City will enjoy their first genuine show on Monday night next, At his own personal ex- pense E. L. Buck, the hustling real estate agent, secured the Hedwicks company of Minneapolis to entertain the people of that village. The per- formance is a refined comedy of good merit, and we bespeak for Hill City people an unusually merry Christmas night. Mr. Buck is certainly entitled to great credit ior his enterprise and public spiritedness. The play will be given in the new school house just completed. HILL CITY NOTES. Monks & McKinley, of Mankato, were here last ‘Thursday. with sixear- loads of logging outfit that. will be used in their cedar operations near Hill City. This firm also brought up a crew of twenty-five men for work in the woods. A new creamery 1s under construc- tion here and will be ready for use by spring. This new enterprise will add greatly to the material advancement of dairying in this vicinity. Robey & Gallea have a large crew near town putting in hardwood that will be sawed at the millon Hill lake. A. H. Schearer, of Blue Earth He was sentensed to serve 25 days in the county jail. The court. repri- manded the defendant about drink- ing and told him that if he ever ap- peared before the court again charg- ed with any crime that he would be dealt with more severely, The court afterwards told the sheriff to allow the defendant to visit’ with his wife on Christmas day but that he must return to jail that night. Frank F, Price defended. The state against Luigi Fullaco was a Cutting affray that took place in an Italian saloon at Bovey on Sun- day, October 1. He was indicted for assault in the second degree. All the witnesses were Italians and testified through an interpreter, James Pas- sard. ‘lhe defeuse offered no testi- mony and the jury found the defend- ant guilty. He was sentenced to hard labor in state’s prison for a term of three years, Krank F. Price de- fended. The case of the state vs. Andrew Hagan was on an indictment for ob- taining a signature to a written docu- ment by means of false pretenses, The defendant was not represented by council and pleaded guilty. He was sentensed to one year at hard labor yn the penitentiary. Frank Ley, the man who caused so much trouble to the prosecuting at- torney in trying to get an indictment that would stick in court, was finally indicted for obtaining a signature to a written instrument by false pre- tenses. Thisis another of Mr. Spear’s persecutions, as he had no case to commence with. After spending con- siderable of the county money in ano effurt that proved his incompetency fur the position which he holds, the court very promptly dismissed the case and discharged the defendant county, has just bought 520 acres of hardwood land near Hill City. Hill City is getting altogether metropolitan. A new billiard hall is the latest in that direction. Logging Outfit For Sale. - George H. Price has arriyed from Minneapolis and may be seen at the Hotel Pokegama by parties who wish to purchase any part of his logging outfit. Notice of Expiration of Redemption.
