A trip about town will show the lawns and streets lden with dandelions. This vege- table pest has come to stay and it will require concerted action on the part of the village authorities and residents to abate the nuisance. Begining July Ist the postmasters fthe country will begin tbe six months task of weighing all mail matter originating in their respect- ive offices. No extra recompense is offered for the additional work and many a hardworking postmaster will cuss the government before the job 1s finished. Pommaase ci aus The Minnesota Agricultural College which just closed for the year has an enrollment of $19, the largest in its history. Of these, 641 were boys and girlsfrom the farm who haye chosen farming as their vocation, 106 were creamery and cheese factory operators and 72 were taking the four year college course. et diets 0 8S if this “lid” agitation keeps up Minnesota will be practically a dry state so far as Sunday liquor selling is concerned. The _ prohibitionists ire not in it with the attorney general when itcomes to doing things and with the question settled it will be along time before the state re- turns to the old order of things. pedlaasE aeT The grand jury which set in the Rapids last week and ordered the state law enforced as regards liquor trafficand gambling, is being roundly censured by some of the saloon ele- ment and those with an unguenchable thirst. The jury, however, did their full duty, and their action should be commended, rather than censured. The better class of law-abiding saloon keepers have no kick coming and are giad of a chance to get out and spend their Sundays in recreation or at their Coleraine Optic. pa Rea A We hope our merchants have not laidin big stocks of dangerous fire- works for the ‘‘glorious’” 4th.

The LeSueur News stands in a class all by itself for fairness and recently contained the following anent the situation. “We don’t know where the talk of divid- ing Minnesota into two states origin- ated, but we do know that the presesent is no time to consider it. The south halfof the state nas all the advantage in past public im- provements, the north half, until DEFECTIVE PAGE localities here and’ there. If] we ever must divide, to satisfy the politicians, let us at least wait until we of the south pay the debt we owe to those of the north, in publicfunds to be used in placing that portion in equally as good a’ condition as we enjoy, in drainage and roads.” > THE LID. The law is coming to Itasca county and contrary to the opinion enter- tained by many, it is a good sign for the future prosperity of this section. That the lid has been pyt on in the villages of Itasca county isa good be- ginning toward a wholesome regard for the law generally. During the earlier history of the county, the law was held in light esteem and infringe- ments thereof were easily condoned, with the result that county officers were aJlowed to go on year after year defrauding the county of money that was badly needed for the building of roads and other improvements. This disregard of the law has retarded in a great measure the develupment of the county. And the number of shooting affairs which have occurred lately through- out the county are but instances of the disregard for law which has been engendered by the lax methods of the authorities. When people see the laws of the state broken every day by men who are held in esteem in their town and who hold, perhaps, offices in their village, is it any wonder that they themselves come to regard the law as of little moment? Happily this state of affairs will exist no longer, and the good the grand jury has done in this instance can hardly be over estimated. When outsiders learn that this section is no longer a’wild and wooly, lawless com- munity, but a peaceable, law-abiding one, they will have no reluctance to come here with their families and settle. A wide open town or county was all right for the lumberjacks, but the day of the lumberjack in this section is slowly but surely passing, and the day is not far distant when Itasca county will be dependent on the settlers instead of the floating population. And what aman witha family wants is a place where he can raise his children and send them to school and where they will not have the example of total disregard of the law and the consequent display of vice and crime before their eyes daily. When the majority of the business men come to recognize these facts there will be no fault found with the action of the authorities in putting on the lid.—Itasca News. > BLUEBERRIES IN PLENTY The blueberry crop in this section bids fair to be the largest in, many years. Cold weather kept the growth back and blossoms did not appear until about the first of June, and no frost having ‘fallen since that time there is an assurance that the crop will be the heaviest in the last ten years. Last year and the year before the blossoms in the openings were destroyed by late frosts and only those that grew in the heavy tim- bered lands were saved. This year there will be berries everywhere, in the open as well as in the timber and the frugal housewife will be able to secure a plenty for next winter’s pies and puddings. FINEST DAIRY COUNTRY. Superintendent A.J. McGuire ina speech delivered at the banquet given by the Duluth Commericial club on Wednesday evening to the speakers who were there iu attendance upon the agricultural meeting said: “T went to Grand Rapids and ran the Experimental station as I would a private farm. I am familiar with conditions in northern Minnesota, and its farmers. They are poor men and they lead hard lives. If the country was settled as it should be the lives of these men would be made much easier. & “This meeting tonight will adver- tise the country and do much to help the settlers already here. IfI were going to own a farm of my own I would prefer nertheastern Minnesota to any country that Iknowof. My specialty is dairying, and I think this is the finest dairy country in the United States.” Sunday newspapers at Millers— Chicago Examiner, Minneapolis Journal, Minneapolis Tribune, St. Paul Despatch, X Ma., April 7, 1856, died last Sunday after a cortinued suffer- ing of more than 14 years. She was married to Edward Wilson May 10, 1876. To this union were born three children, John, Edward and Louise, now Mrs. Geo. Williams. The funeral, conducted by Rey. Hollis R. Scott, was held from the late residence Tuesday afternoon at 3 o’cloex, wheao alarge number of neighbors and friends assembled to pay their respect to the deceased and extend their sympathy to the bereay- ed family. VARSITY BOYS TO THE FORE Last Wednesday the state forestry board held a meeting at Itasca park to consider among cther things what lands to buy with the $35,000 of state money. The work of surveying the land to be purchased, and scaling the timber, will be done by the stu- dents of the state university. It will be remembered the last legisla- ture granted $2,000a year tu the university for the establishment of state summer school of forestry. A dozen university students will leave Minneapolis for the park ina few days to form the first school of for- estry ever established in the north- west. They wil! bein charge of Mr. Cheney, assistant to Prof. Green of the forestry department at the university. The school will be con- ducted at the old lodge building and the students will for the most part live in tents pitched in the immedi- ate vicinity. Special Holiday. It has become currently rumored throughout the community that Wed- nesday, July 10, will be celebrated in this city as a general gala day, and already arrangements are under way to make this holiday the event of the year. Gollmar Bros.’ greatest of American shows will arrive early in the morning transported in immense trains bringing in splendid entirety their colossally enlarged circus, mu- seum, menagerie and hippodrome es- tablishment.

The Gollmar Bros, will bring to Grand Rapids shows worth travelling many miles to wit- ness. Oneof the events of the day will be the grand, gold glittering ard and glorious free street parade, a magnificent, spectacular, military and triumphal pageant, in which will ap- pear in panoramic display a retinue of equipages, tableaux, vans, alle- goric floats, open dens, musical char- iots, serred ranks of royally robed knights and ladies mounted on blood- ed steads, fit to grace an emperor’s reception. This grand procession in all its magnificence of color, glare and glory to the soul stirring music of three great bands and the clarion strains of the monster 32 pipe calliope will move from the show grounds promptly at 10 o’clock.
