We publish in this issue a denial by Mr, Hamilton. It takes two to make a trade and with the denials of both gentlemen concerned, 1t would look as if those persons who are intent.on defeating Mr. Thwing, no matter by what jmeans, are adopting methods which only aid him. A ‘‘deal’’of this kind, in order to be effective must be publicly carried on. No evidence of the carrying out of such a ‘‘deal” has been found. Mr. Thwing is carrying on and must carry on a campaign which is consistent with the dignity of the office to which he aspires; if ‘deal” were put through, it would not will from eyen a political standpoint, for either gentle- | men. he public demands a clean campaign and in demanding clean , it declares itself in favor of rarding any efforts made to dis- rage a candidate which assert the of methods not consistent such a be existence with the campaign which must be made If the public generally de- mands clean campaigns it should have them ——_+0+—_—_ Hopes to Get Good Vote. The Grand Rapids Independent and Minneapolis Journal, in recent issues of those respective papers, publish a rumor to the effect that a combination bas been entered into whereby the friends of A. L. Thwing of Grand Rapids have pledged Itasca county to support A. L. Hamilton of Aitkin for a legislative nomination in return for Aitkin county support for Mr. Thwing for the nomination of district judge. As far as the editor of the Republican is informed, (and we ought to, know) there has been no such combination formed. Mr. Thwing’s friends at Grand Rapids have never pledged Hamilton the support of Itasca county, nor have they ever made a proposition of this kind. The counties of Aitken and Itasca have always been closely associated polit- ically, and moreover, many of the citizens of Grand Rapids were former residents of Aitken, and consequeautly Aitken county. citizens have always felt a friendly interest in candidates for political office from Itasca county. Because of this, it is extremely prob- able that Mr. Thwing as the Itasca candidate for judge will get a good vote at the primaries in Aitken county, which would be quite natural. The Republican has decided to sup- port Mr. Hamilton for the legislature and it violates no confidence when it asserts that that gentleman hopes by reason of the freindliness existing between the two counties to get a good vote in Itasca county. It believes that the legislative candidates as well as those for judge are running on their merits, and that no combinations of any kind have been entered into and it trusts that the Itasca Indepen- dent and Minneapolis Journal will correct the unwarranted impression caused by the publication of the rumor above referred to,—Aitken Re- publican. Brilliant Career Ab Miller and Congressman J. Adam Bede for the congressional nomina- tion in this district is attracting notice trom all over the state. Con- gressman Bede has had a wide acquaintance for many years and the impression made by Mr. Miller in his maiden term in the legislature last session, occasioned state wide atten- tion. He is regarded by shrewd politicians of both parties as a young man who has a brilliant career ahead of him. Comments on his candidacy have been almost uniformly friendly out- side of the eighth district, and in his home field the exchanges show him to be highly popular. His nomination is freely predicted by disinterested ob- servers. Both Mr. Miller and Mr. Bede are ready public speakers and listening to either is a task the average man will not shirk, Mr. Bede has a national reputation as a humorist, and most of those who live hereabouts have heard his stories and laughed with him. Mr. Miller is an ernest talker, albeit blessed with a sense of humor and a ready wit. These qualities are turned to account by bim, however, rather to illustrate argument than to be used in lieu thereof. Because of the personalities of the two candidates, the contest in the district piques public interest throughout the state.—Duluth News Tribune. is Death of Jesse Lee Jellison. { Last Monday morning at his home on Bass lake, surrounded by members of his family, Jesse Lee Jellison passed to the great beyond. The immediate cause of death was cancer of the throat, 6f which dread malady he had been a sufferer for some months. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Davies of the Presbyterian church of this place and were held at the family residence, interment was made in Itasca cemetery. Two mar- ried daughters, Mrs. C. S. Palmec and Mrs. R. Paul of Falls City, Oregon, arrived home Tuesday morning, but were too late for recognition as their father was unconscious. He is sur- vived by his wife, four daughters, Mrs. C. S. Paimer, Mrs. Richard Paul, Mrs. C. W Baker and Mrs. C. H. Dowell, and two sons, Clarence and Clyde. Jesse Lee Jellison was boro in Maine, July 10, 1845, coming to Min- nesota while quite young, his life having been spent in this State. Served three years in the civil war as private in Co. B. Hatche’s Independ- ent Batallion, Minnesota Volunteer cavalry, and was a member of Morgan Post, G.A.R. of Minneapolis. Wasa citizen of Itasca county for many years. ? The bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community in their loss. Everything Comes his Way. Some men are born lucky and deputy sheriff Harry seems to belong to that class. -After a long hike across country last week the deputy struck the M. &R. railroad at Jessie Junction and boarding the south bound pas- senger prepaired to rest while the train took him to Deer River. At a flag station a few miles down the line the train took on two passengers who entered the car where Mr. Harry was and dropped two heavy pack sacks that made a noise like illegal game, and the owners proceeded/to occupy seats near the deputy. He silently sized up the pair for a time and then en- gaged them in conversation; settlers? no; came up from Minneapolis about the first of April; worked in camp till about a month ago, since which time we have been hunting. Have good luck? Yes! got a moose last night. Got the méat in the packs and we are taking it to Deer River to sell. Don’t you know it is against thelaw? Yes! but we get off the train before it reaches the depot and cut across to the town and sell; nubody the wiser. Our name is Johnson, Gust and Leonard, Officer Harry loves a joke and in a mild manner said ‘‘Weli boys don’t get off too soon. Jnst ride to the depot and carry the meat to the jail for me.” The men were dumfounded but the officer convinced them he meant business and the program was carried out. The men were taken before Judge Cochran, confessed to the killing, fined $50 each and costs, could not raise the money, and were consigned to the county jail for 60 days each. In less than two hours the work was all done shipshape and Officer Harry is convinced that luck is with him, at least when he rides. , An ad, in the Herald-Review brings results, : The contest between Clarence B.}.

The plan of guaranteed bank de- posits has probably found favor, among al) classes of people and irre- spective of political affiliation, more rapidly than any other public ques- tion. The new state of Oklahoma has already enacted alaw taxing state banks, the fund thus accumulated to be used in paying the depositors of any state bank that from any cause becomes unable to meet its obliga- tions. A special session of the Kan- sas legislature has been called for the pur- pose of enacting legislation similar to the Oklahoma plam. The governor of Nebraska is considering the advisability of calling a special session of the legislature on account of the growing belief among the people that protection tobank depositors in the form.of state or federal guarantees of their deposits will stop the hoarding of money, bring into circulation sufficient currency to conduct the business of the country, and prevent a recur- rence of such disastrous panics as the one through which we are now passing. Mr. Bryan has been an advocate of a law guaranteeing deposits in state and national banks since 1893. The legislatare of Ohio has adopted a joint resolution inviting Mr. Bryan to address its members in joint ses- sion February 18, 1908, on the subject of Guaranteed Bank Deposits. Mr. Bryan, in discussing the tariff question, insists that residents of the United States should be permitted to buy home-made goods at home at aslow a price asthe foreigner can buy American-made goods aboard. He also insist that our government should be by and for the people as a whole, rather than by and for the trusts, and administered in the interest ofa few. beneficiaries of the trust system. He believes that national legisla- tion for the purpose of better regulation and control of interstate commerce and common carriers should supplement; state legislation. and not be a substitute for state legislation.
