In each instance these people state that they intend to attend the sale in Itasca county and desire all the knowledge avail- able, so that they may intelligently invest when the proper time arrives. Information regarding the public lands that are subject to entry 1s also sought. It is evident there will be a large attendance at the various sales, and those who are receiving letters of in- quiry are doing all they can to en- courage the prospective homeseekers, many of whom will find themselves in a new country under conditions to When you purchase $25.00 wortn of goods of us we give you— absolutely free—a nice Phonograph. time you make a purchase and you will be surprised how soon you will have a nice talking machine. sold-Moulded Record given free with each additional $5.oo}worth of trade, and you can buy as many as you wish at 35¢ each. one machine to each family.

It would, indeed, be a great ac- commodation to the patrons of the Great Northern if the officials of that corporation would install telephone service at the depot in this village.

He was sick but a short time, when death came asa release from his sufferings. He was a mem- ber of the G.

The Fountain house, owned by Martin Dufticy, situated on the corner ot Leland avenue and Fifth street, was partially destroyed by fire Wed- nesday. It was thought at one time, | owing to the Ingh wind which _pre-! vailed, that the building would not only be an entire loss but that other | property in the neighborhood was in danger. By the prompt and efficient work of the fire department the fire was under control in a short time. The damage to the property by fire and water is estimated at about $500 and was not covered by insurance, The next, and last, number on the course of the local lyceum bureau will occur on Monday evening, April 2, and will be filled by Mr. L.

There 1s no truth that ought to be more impressed upon our youth than the unchanging law of cause and effect, and no one can dv it better than Wickersham,” Monday night of this. week the new village council convened. President Powers, Trustees Dibbert, Gunn and Bossard and Recorder Graffum were present at roll call. ‘ibe business be fore the mecting was transacted in a | ple which they are unaccustomed and will naturally reed a good word. The sale of state lands in Itasca county will be held at Grand Rapids on April 17, at which time 40,000 acres will be offered at auction to the high- est bidder, with a minimum of $5 per | acre. Full information in regard to this sale may be bad by addressing C. E. Dickinson, secretary of the Grand Rapids Commercial club. GREELEY’S BAD ASSOCIATIONS Greeley, he of the Compass of Rip- up on the Big Fork, is so . anxious to make for himself a place in politics that may land him some- thing, that he has stooped to the low- est depths. He might have risen to the highest heights—so far as his natural abilities would permit. He derides the county commissioners for the discharge of the alleged expert accountant employed by the county to examine the books of the county treasurer. Look the matter up, Greeley, and your conclusions will be far different. The Herald-Review will have a few facts to print a little later on, and this paper believes you to be honest enough to acknowledge the truth when it is given to you with convincing force and overwhelming evidence, : RECORD IS MADE BY COLD WAVE he thermometer registered 15 de- grees below zero Tharsday morning— something remarkable in the way of weather, When one comes to consider tbat it was the second day of spring. ‘The weather bureau says that this is the rst time since 1888 that the Pioneer Store. : | John Beckfelt. | Pioneer Store.

It is a record-breaker and there are but very few cases on record in this country where as cold a streak as prevailed on March 22 as prevailed Thursday morning. The uurmal temperature for March is 24 degrees above, and the coldest temperature recorded in this regiou for any day in March during thitty- five years was 26 degrees below zero on the 19th, 1875. Ordinarily March is a windy month, but not a cold one. It is sometimes a bit chilly because of the wind, but that 1s all; so that the cold weather this week was out of the ordinary. The cold spell, hows ever, appears to have spent its force, and hopes of better weather may be indulged in. Village Council Proceedings—Official Publication. Grand Rapids, Minn., ) March 12, 1906.
