ciate aang Probable Candidate for the Office of Attorney Hon. C. M. King of Big Fork is looked upon by many voters in this county as a very desirable and strong candidate for the office of county attorney. Since coming here from Wright county about eight yeirs ago and taking a homestead in the fertile Big Fork yalley, he has given little attention to the practice of law but he is well known as a man of excellent ability and rhany years active and successful practice in his profession; a man who has done much to improve the road conditions in his locality by urging the necessity thereof to the commissioners, and in many instances nas demonstrated his usefulnes tial manner. He has not yet next three days, or he may be an independent candidate. and loyalty to Itasca county in a very substan- filed but may do so within the “Pighting For Life. It seems almost too good to be true that the Standard Oil company must shortly face a contest that is actually a tight forits life, says the Duluth Herald. Not that the Standard Oil trust is the most oppressive of the American family of trusts. Others cover com- modities even more necessary to the life liberty and happiness of the American people. Butas the largest, most successful, most grasping and typical of trusts, a sucvessful fight against the Standard will be a whole- some augury of victory ia the fight of the people for fair play and an equal tield without favor or special privi* lege. In September the Standard Oil forces may stand facing the govern- ment of the United States in a tight for life. District Attorney Morrison of Chicago, who has been sifting the evidence gathered by the government is free to express the opinion that there 1s testimony enough in hand to compel the dissolution of the com- pany. That is the object to which the government's law officers will bend fieir energies, judging from their present attitude. They realize the magnitude of the task, and are pre- paring themselves accordingly. They realize the power of the Standard. They realize that it} is immensely rich, and that it can affurd to buy the highest legal talents the nation pro- vides. Indeed, it can afford to do no less. It will bea mighty fight. It will be a free government agaifist a gigan- tic octopus that has twisted its ten-} tacles throughout the fabric of gov- ernment and society. It will be a test of which is the greater and stronger, the .government of a free people or the creature to which to it has given birth. Of course the Standard will fight to the last«drop of blood. It has been browsing in a rich pasture, and it will not submit to being driven out tame- ly. It will take all the power of the government to do the work it has undertaken, It will take all the power of the trust to resist it. These are two mighty .forces, in many re+ spects the mightiest in the world, and the contest will be surely titanic, In the opinion of the people the oil trust bas merited the worst that can come to it. In simplifying the oil trade, in adopting modern methods and inventions, in cheapening the cost of production and in eliminating waste and useless friction, the found- ers of the trust performed a great public seryice. But they did not let { without permission from bim. the public get the benefits of that service. Theggook them all for their own use, me And by that exhibition of merciless greed, by their .cruel and relentless] qe ‘rushing of those whe might have given the public a fairer du bution of benefits, they have richly merited the punishment that would be ine volved in the dissofution of trust. Tone Wins His Fight. The fight which started two weeks ago between Aad A. Tone and the Backus-Brooks Lumber company has all been settled. The Backus-Brooks Lumber company found that they Were up aguinst the real thing when they tried to run over Tone’s land Two weeks ago Tone told them they would have to settle with him for the land and make the road a public carrier so that-sanyone may have his logs havled out of the lake. he company would not do this and thought they would get around it in some manner with- out settlement, but after they were erdered off and two of their men ar- rested for trespass they changed their minds and settled with Tone. At- torney Rockwood of Minneapclis represented the company. ‘The case of The State vs. Wm. Stack was held before Justice Aaberg on Saturday and after several witness- ness were heard and no defense was made, Stack was fined five dollars and costs. Although the fine was small, the defense appealed the case. Manson who was also implicated,plead guilty and was fined five dullars and costs. These cases are importance, as they show that a hig company can be brought to justice as well assan indi- vidual.—Northome News. Thwing’s Candidacy. The News has received a lengthy communication from A, L. Thwing, candidate for county attorney, in reply to editorial comment made by the Ircn News at Bovey in regard to his candidacy, that paper wanting Mr. Tbhwing to state how he stood on the Miller cases, The space in the Itasca News is so limited and the letter so long we cannot give it in full. However, while we tavor Mr. King to the exciusion of everybody else, we have no hesitation in saying we believe Mr. Lhwing, if elected, would do his duty in the Miller cases asinali other cases. Candor, hon- esty and fair play compels us to say this mueb. Thereis no question of uprightness in regard to the two candidates so far named for the couaty attorneyship. Both men are and honorable citizens, and neither would bring any shawe upon the county if the transaction of the busi- ness of the office of county attorney. It is simply a question of ability and experience, and of these we believe Mr. King to possess the greater. Mr. Thwing takes exception to the infer- Jences made by the Bovey. News, and in this we believe he is right. That uch is due him without in the least from Mr. King’s cba: © DEFECTIVE PAGE s CUT : PRICES just now satisfy us and please ; others.
