ITASCA COUNTY TAlh FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, OC- S TOBER 4th AND 5th. EXHIBIT AT THE STATE FAIR GOOD Farmers Making Great Prepara- tions.—Crops Are the Finest. —New Buildings. The Itasca county fair to be held Oct 4 and 5 promises to be the vest in | the history of the yciation. The county commissioners voted $500 to the premium fund, which will enable the association to increase the pre- miums on all exhibits. The new building will also add interest to the fair. When complete it will probable be the finest county jfair building in the state, the build- ‘ing will provide compartments for agriculture, horticulture, dairy and household. A Live Stock building will also be put up so that all the stock brought in will have comfortable quarters. Watch for the premium list that will be out next week. There will be prizes for every creditable farm pro- duct brought in. The prizesin the household department and for ‘the school children will be worth whiie. | Let us give the Itasca county fair a start this -fall toward one of the greatest 1n the state. Itasca county made its best show- ing this year at the fair. It was first in threshed grain, tame grasses, po-| tatoes and stuck roots. The only | part of the exhibit that did not make ja creditable showing was the fresh fruit exhibit. It was too early in the'season for the plum crop, and |the apple orchards of Itasca county ‘are not sufficiently developed yet for | an apple exhibit.

Johnson to appraise the property of Itwsca and Koochiching counties, were to have left for Grand Rapids this eyening to begin their work, but business duties of one of the commission have caused the Start to be postponed one week. The property is tu be appraised so that a fair division may be had be ‘tween the county of Itasca and the new county of Koochiching. The bone of contention seems to be the Itasca county poor farm, on which valuable iron ore is said to be locat- ed. YOUNG ROOSEVELT WAS NOT HUNTING A. G. Rutledge, of Bemidji’ deputy state game warden, was in the village Monday having come over from Coleraine, where he had been sent by the state game and fish commission to investigate the report that Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., son of President Roosevelt, had been hunt- ing in the vicinity of Coleraine dur- ing the past three days, and was violating the state game laws and that he had not taken out any non-resident license. Mr. Rutledge said he had fully investigated the report and was cer- tain that the published statement that the young man had been hunt- ing without a license was untrue.

NESBITT RFFUSES JOB Council Elects Mr. Nesbitt But He Declines the Distinguished Honor. While the municipal affairs of Grand Rapids are proceeding along satisfactory lines there seems to bea scarcity of candidates for the office of president of the councii. This con- dition is easily accounted for. There seems to be a fewpeople resident here who are determined to get into com- munication with the chief executive of the state and the attorney general These individuals have little else t« do, and it isno trouble for them to write letters to the state- authorities charging that the laws relating t« the sale of liquor are not enforced and that the cause thereof is the failure of the village president to a his duty as chief executive of the municipality. In reply to the com- plaints sent in the county and village authorities are communicated with and dire threats are made as to the awful consequences that will surely follow any neglect on the part of those who are charged with the en- forcement of the aforesaid liquor laws. The situation here is fully un- 'derstood by the people as well as the local officials, and the latter do not their time writing explanations to St. Paul for the sat- isfaction of a few fanatics who re- present nothing but diseased imagin ations and ambitions tu make them selves conspicuous and gain some notoriety through miserpresentation.
