Gunn, candidate for state senator, and Henry King of Grand Rapids, spent Monday evening in Cass Lake on their way to Walker, business. receiving the most encouraging reports from all over the district and that from present indications he has every rea- son to believe that he will experience but little difficulty in landing the numination.—Cass Lake Voice. = Dan Gunn, candidate for the state senate, was in town the fore part of the week and found his fences all in good repair in Cass Lake. He went to the county seab to be at the delegate convention which was held on the6th inst. Cass county 1s expecting the nomination of oneof her favoritesons for governor and should be geners ous enough to grant her neighboring ‘county everything she asks for politi- cally. Mr. Gunn has only one oppon- ent, amildand mannered good fellow, but too modest to do things in our degislative halis. We'll vote for Dan this time and give his opponent a needed rest.”—Cass_ Lake Guardian where they had been upon Mr. Gunn stated that he is “much ‘Times. +06 Tue Virginian types a truth in the following that is worthy of perusal, rememberance and adoption: “The universal ‘booster’ is just as undesirable a character as the gener- al ‘knocker.’ For he is generally insincere and a hypocritical friend is much less desirable than an open foe. ‘Vo speak well of all or not at all may be a good rule to follow to preserve une’s peace of mind but is a cowardly policy just the same. Honest criti- cism, tempered by justice and mercy, and the giving of praise where due is a better plan.” eo a ‘THE prosperity uf this great family journal is evidently the cause of much worry to our friends of the Indepen- dent—located in the alley back of the Herald-Review block. The Indepen- dent is reaching the end of the legacy to which the publisher fell heir three or four years ago, and the thought does not make his slumbers peaceful. He attributes his inability to make friends and money in Grand, Rapids to the perniciousness of the Herald- Review, and hence he instructs his editor to say mean things about the gentleman who presides over the destinies of these columns. Last week the aforesaid editor found a string of “water wagon” doggrel in the Minneapolis Journa) and dedi- cated it to the aforesaid gentleman. Butitdid not in the least disturb his philosophical nature. It only served to call to mind bygone days when the aforesaid editor of the Independent was the most disgusting sot that ever came up the Mississippi river to Aitkin; a drunken sot whose very presence was abhorrent. It brought to mind a tottering, senile served to picture in the pes an ignorant, half-baked boy undertaking to run a newspaper with the assist- ance of the senileold man. And the Herald-Review could only soliloquize On the pity of it all. The one lost in brain and body; the other neglect- ed by vature in the original plan. May God pity them both. The Her- ald-Review does. Spear and His Paper. “George H. Spear, the briliiant young proescuting attorney of Itusca county, seems to be devoting his peculiar talents to the editorial page of the Grand Rapids Indepen- dent, and it is stuff well worth reading.” The above was taken from the Hibbing Mesaba Ore, CU. M. Atkinson's paper. All men have defects of one nature or another, and Mr. Atkinson is no exception, but the above quoted from him is the first intimation we ever had that he was a fool.—Grand Rapids Independent, In the hope of back-stepping into the good graces of the Independent we hasten to withdraw the statement, apd openly declare that the stuff dished up by Prosecuting Attorney Spear is the rottenest kind of rot, and we shall hereafter refrain from taint- ing our insides with Mr. Spear’s peculiar-kind of rubbish. Now we shali expect the Independent editor to state we “was”? not a foul. BOND ISSUE. WAS. CARRIED Nothwithstanding the misrepresen- tations and protests of the Depenent last week the proposition to issue municipal bonds in the sum of $17,000 was carried by a vote of 75 to 14, Less than one-tith of the vote of the village was polled. This is ac- counted for very easily. Every bu: ness man in Grand Rapids considered that there could possibly be no opposi- tion, inasmuch as it was a money- saving uudertabing by the council and met with such general approval that the idea of oppusition did not enter into the mind of any taxpayer who had given the proposition the least consideration. If the presevt floating indebtedness can not be taken up the full amvunt will be placed in judgment in a short time and those who pay the taxes of Grand Rapids would be called upon to ‘make good” atasingle levy. If the bonds are taken by the state the interest will be reduced from a rate that runs from 9 to 40 per ceut in some instan- ce, to a straight 4 per cent. The umount proposed to be sold is$17,000, and under the proceedure taken can only go tothe state at4 per cent. Payment of the bonds is to be made in three installments at five year periods, thus making the burden Jight and convenient. Our esteemed contemporary, the Dependent has an illustration of its influence in this community by the vote polled Jast Thursday. Its deliberate misrepresentations were understood and contemptuously ignored. B. P. MUNSON RETURNS “HOME” The following from the Northome Record is the first intimation coming to the Herald-Review that the former Itasca county logger had returned from Idaho and was again operating in this section. Burt is welcome home, however, aad we hope he may remain while his large western hold- ings ure accumalating a fortune for him. ‘Bert Munson trepresenting Backus & Brooks Lumber Co., was in Tuesday evening. He said that the company is willing todo all it could to clear the lake at present; and en- gaged Denis Johnson to take care of the logs with bis launch. He also stated that they would start actual work on the spurinto Bartiett lake notlater than the 15 th of June, and tbat they bad two hoisters on hand to take all tke logs out as soon as possible. Mr. Munson takes the place of Geo. McCrea in looking after the interests of the company and is at present making sheadquarters ab Blackduck; but soon will come to Northome. The company has sold ahout twenty million feet of logs to be delivered in Stillwater.” CASS LAKE HERE TOMORROW WILL PICNIC “AT GRAND RAPIDS Great Northern Employees Wilf Hold Their Annual Outing Here. SEVERAL PLACES ARE CONSIDERED The Committee Finds Grand Rapids to be the Most Desirable Pic- nic Town in Northern Minnesota. Two years ago the railway em- ployees of the Great Northern Rail- way company at Superior enjoyed their annual summer outing at Grand Rapids. There were fifteen. coach loads of railway men and their fami- lies. They enjoyed the outing here and the cordial treatment accorded them by the citizensin general, They expect to hold their picnic this year on the 2gth inst. Several towns have oftered inducements to the party to spend the day, and a committee, con- sisting of Messrs, Frank R. Clapp and Arthur Ensley, were appointed to visit the several places and report. ‘They were in Grand Rapids last Mon- day and expressed themselves as being favorably impressed with this place. Judge Huson was in Superior Thurs- day and was told by a prominent mem- ber of the railway working force that it had been decided to again come to Grand Rapids. Secretary Dickinson ot the Commercial club, submitted a proposition to the committee setting torth the inducemeuts that would be offered. He has not yet been advised authetnically of the action taken, There will be in the party fully fitteen hundred people. The village council willaid to the extent of $100 in preparing for the reception of the railway men and their families, REMEMBER JOHNSON’S SALE As announced in the last issue of the Herald-Review August Johnson, the Grand Rapids tailor, will offer for sale, beginning on June 20, all suits of clothes made to order not called for at that date. ‘This will in- clude all orders placed before April Ist.

DOINGSIN. DISTRICT COURT During the week there has been little doing of general interest in dis- trict court. Only a few unimportant civil cases were disposed of.
