J Bryan pays the following ite to former president Grover land The death of former president Grover Cleveland brings to a sudden end the phenomenal career of one of the strongest characters known to the world during the present ation. Like every commanding he had zealous supporters and opponents, but those who red from him were’ as ready as rmest friends to concede to him possession of elements of leader » an extraordinary degree.

[he glorious Fourth of July ap- and thoughts of the mighty ignificance that attaches to the the splendid memories it re- s,and of the lofty principals of edom that it celebrates are drown- aches n mental shudders of apprehen- n about the number of young lives that will be offered up as scrifices to fashion of observance that we have come to give this day. five national birthdays, 1907 inclusive, Fourth of July killed 1,153 people and in- 50 more! from jured Of the injured, 80 suffered total blindness and 389 partial blindness; 380 persons lost arms, legs, hands, and 1,670 lost one or more fingers. A pretty penny this, to pay for celebra- tions of an anniversary so holy. Nor do these figures begin §to ex- press the cost. Think of the suffer- both physical and mental, which figures cannot express! Think of the weeks and often months of anguish for the injured, the worry and grief— not to speak of the expense—occasion- ed parents, friends and relatives. Think of the horrors of being doomed to blindness for the rest of one’s life, )f the saddened familes in which the places of loved ones are made vacant, of the proverty and want thatQmay now be resulting from the removalfof the supports of families. Noise isn’t patriotism, though it has often been mistaken forit. That is a curious thing, too, because there isn’t necessarily the slightest resem- blance. Yet these lost lives and these shattered limbs were sacrificed iu the interests of a noisy Fourth, when a quiet, thoughtful Fourth would be far more in keeping with the spirit of the day.—Duluth Herald. in The Independent last week nomin- ated our fellow townsman, J. B. Ga- larneault, for Governor, the Age sec- onds the nomination this week, and the Republican is glad of the oppor- tunity to speak a yood word in help- ing along the boom. Mr. Galarneault isa gentlemen of unimpeachable in- tegrity and is of a high type of American citizenship, and the Demo- crats couldn’t fiud a cleaner man to put up at the head of their ticket, nor could one be found whose candi- dacy would be more of a guarantee that the state’s business so far as the governor is concerned, would be con- ducted as it should be. He is presi- dent of the Hight District Bankers’ association, is on the state highway commission, and at the last’ Demo- eratic state convention was named a presidential elector. Last but not least, he is a politician and a great vote getter. Other men might make better speeches than can Mr. Gal- arneault, but none could grace the position more than he.—Aitkin Re- publican. — General in his eager search for bus- iness has the supreme effrontry to, solicit us for our envelope trade. Nay! Nay! Mr. General; we will print them ourself and as many of our neighbors also as we can get. Don’t crowd the country printer off the earth altogether. JESSE HARRY Candidate before Republican Pri- maries for nomination for office of Sheriff of Itasca County. Seasonable weather for grass—and John H. Grass seems to be the popu- lar candidate for railroad commis- sioner. pi SE SEE ES SLE Speaking seriously and wholly from the standpoint of plain, common sense, why should money be scarce or plentiful any more than postage stamps, when the vital interests of all the people are considered? Both are creations of law, both are expres* sions of sovereign political functions, both are absolute necessities of com- mercial and public life and the beneti ts in revenue to be derived from the use of both should go into the public treasury. — Duluth Labor World. —_+0+—_—_ The lid has been put on at Ely as in most of the range towns, and in com- menting thereon the Ely Miner says: “Now is the accepted moment for those who pay licenses to put ina few licks after hours and puta stop to the illegal traffic. We can see no earthly reason for one man paying a license and another in the same business not paying. We also think it is a little bit up to the man that pays the license to protect his own business. Let the licensed salour men get together and do all in their power to stop it. Sev- eral of the Mesaba range towns have effectively put a crimp in the blind pig business, some even going so far as to refuse to grant a license to the man who handles beer from a brewery that sells to blind piggers. ~Stop the wagons from peddling in the loca- tions and force those who want beer to come up town and buy it io licensed saloons, even if he has te carry it home on bis back.” George Riddell.
