Drummond, clerk of court of Koochiching county, has been in Grand Rapids since Monday of tnig week. He is transcribing records in the office of Clerk ofCourt Rassmussen. Mr. Drummond says affairs. political in his county are already assuming an attitude of strenuosity that! promises to develope into a condition of positive and negative interest ere the primaries are pulled off in Sep-} tember. He apprehends that some of the Jocal contests will be hard fought, but does not feel that he should ex- perience any difficulty in being re-! nominated and re-elected to the office of clerk of court. “I bave lots of| faitb in the good judgment of the! voters of Koochiching county, and‘ they will not have the heart to dis charge so faithful and competent a servant as they must certainly know their present clerk to be,” said Mr. Drummond in a manner that indicat- ed a good nature that is really one of the strong characteristics of a suc- cessful man in politics. He will be a candidate before the Republican pri- maries for nomination to the office uf clerk of court, and if the Hearid- Review had to make a wager on the result it would place its money on Drummond as a winner. \ |SPLITHAND| | # NEWS * AR nner Geo.
