LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER Thirty-Four Live Candidates For Your Consideration. A GOODLY LIST OF GOOD MEN. It is Impossible to Elect All So it Will be Well to Make Your Se- lection Only After Mature Deliberation. Below we give a list of all the can- didates who have filed for the nomi- nations in Itasca county, and it will be the fault of the voters if other than the best are chosen at the pri- mary election uext Tuesday, Sep- tember 15. It is important tnat every citizen should attend primary election and give his vote to the man he wishes elected at the November election. Io many cases the result will be close and the larger the vote at the primary the better chance your candidate will have at the regular election. In the following list cf pames Itasca county can make choice of a set of county officials that cannot be beaten anywhere and it is a pleasure to pre- sent so capable a lot of candidates. So far the campaign has been a clean, gentlemanly affair and this feature 1s to be commended. Weare all neigh- bors and will have to live within the same community after the election is over and the absence of bitter person- alities contribute largely to harmony. “, * us love one another.” Autitor—Mr. M.

On the eastern end of the range no other 1 For County Commissioners. Itasca county is fortunate this year in having the best lot of candidates for county commissioners that have ever been named and the board will undoubtedly be a business one in every respect. From the first district ©. M. King will undoubtedly be the choice of the voters. The able work Mr. King has performed for the county during the past year precludes the possibility of any other candidates winning against him and he is practically assured of his election. The second district is an important one and in the past has been most able represented by Morris O’Brien, who has always faithfully attended to the affairs of his teritory and has been a valuable man to the county at large. Mr. O'Brien has demonstrated his worth during the past two years and is altogather too zood a man to be turned down and will be again re- turned as commissioner from his district. The third district 1s one of the most impurtant in the country and must have a man for commissioner who is liberal and broad minded enough to represeat all interest. The citizens of that district have united upon John P. Tribilcock who is one of the best posted man in his district; thoroughly familiar with its needs and will un- doubtedly be elected. In the fourth district, whick in- cludes Grand Rapids, Neil Mullins is the logical candidate. Mr. Mullins has already served the county two years and has fully convinced his dis- trict by his past record that he is the proper man for the place and we pre= dict his election by an overwhelming majority. The extreme* northeastern portion of the county is a new commissioner district and is known as district number five. Archie,McWilliams an old time resident of Grand Rapids, but for the past seven years a resident of Nashwauk, is the only candidate who appears to have a walk-away and his just popularity and know inte- grity entitles him: to a seat on the board. The Herald-Review is confident that the above named gentlemen will compose a board of county commis- sioners that will give Itasca county a clean, business like administration and therefure recommend them to the voters of the several districts. A. L. Hamilton of Aitkin. We present our readers to the above gentleman who asks your votes that he may represent vou in the state leg- islature. We have known Mr. ilton for many years and he is our candidate first, last and all the time.

On Labor day will occur the first football game of the season and prom- ises to be one of the most interesting games ever pulled off in Grand Rapids. According to the custom of larger schoo}s the Alumni have challenged the high school team and the same was promptly accepted and the battle will be for the supremacy. The alum- ni contains many of the old stars of former high school teams who helped to put Grand Rapids in the front rank of football winners, who think they can sull play, while the high school team this year has some players that are about as snappy as they make them and are eager to trim up their older brothers. ‘The rivalry is friendly but the game will be played as only Grand Rapids can play it and the attendance will undoubtedly be large. Boost County Fair. _Everybody should boost the county fair. Get on the wagon and lets make it the best ever. Let every gardner and farmer in Itasca county pick out the best of his herd and crop and make an exhibit this year that will be accredit to our county. The county fair should be the biggest affair of the year.and can easily be made so by a little concerted action on the part of all of us. Decide now what you are going to exhibit and get in shape to make the best showing possible. Miss Katurah Cobb, English and | “Facts are Facts, "Tis the Trath } That Hurts.” \ Thus says the Itasca County Inde- ‘pendent in its last issue relative to the ndorsement of Mr. Thwing by the litzens of Grand Rapids and Itasca ‘county. Right you are, Mr. Independent, and from your appearance, the ap- pearance of your editor and and his attorney when you were running around town a few days ago tearfully pleading with the citizens who endors- ed Mr. Thwing, that their endorsement would hurt you, “would hurt Tony,” you were about the worst hurt of any paper or any person that we have Seen for some time. We wonder if you really see your- self as others see you? Just look at yourself when you are running around town from store to store interviewing the citizens of this place with tears running down your cheeks, telling them that their endorsement of Mr. Thwing under the circumstances, would hurt you, and then look at your paper coming out and admitting that you were hurt. é The Itasca County Independent says: “Itisno light matter for any newspaper to publish such a statement as the Herald-Review has published regarding this paper, and the editor of The Independent proposes to im- mediately consult attorneys with the view of determining upon the course to be taken in the matter.” Of course it is no light matter for a Jarge number of the citizens and business men of Grand Rapids to publish over their own signatures that the statements contained in the Itasca County Independent relative to Mr. Thwing are not true. Of course it is no light matter for a newspaper like The Independent to be engaged in publishing untruths and falsehoods against a young man, one | of its neighbors and whose only fault lies in the tact that he aspires to an office against the wishes of the Inde- pendent, and one or two of the In- dependent’s advisers, We do not wonder that the Inde- pendent feels humiliated and chagrined to be so openly and positively rebuked. We do not wonder that the Inde- pendent feels hurt and sore and sad gut its trouble 1s all its own making, aid the continuation of its trouble depends entirely upon itself. The Coilege Boy, one of the best of recent comedy successes and for which Charles Riggs & Sons are sponsors, will be the next attraction at the Opera House on Tuesday, Sept. 8th. The College Boy comes rather under the head of musical comedy, though, unlike the majority, other music being interpolated, theatre- goers will hear the very latest popular songs and those that are entirely new. Rex Wilson has the title role and 1s sup- | ported by the same favorites that has | made the attraction so popular in the past. The stage settings and scenic | adornement are complete and artistic. | There is a convulsion of laughter in | every line and a world of tuneful song | in evéry act. There are vocal hits that | will be whistled everywhere. The play | | isin three acts and is a scream from the | rise to the fall of the curtain. | prices are 50 cents for the best seats |,on sale at the usual place. The Court House Gang will play the Village Salesmen a game of ball next Sunday forenoon on the south side grounds. It is desired by both teams thata goodly cro wd of rooters be present as they will need considerable encouragement from their admirers to nerve some of them to face the box. An Independent Newspaper. One of the greatest politica] battles ever waged has begun, and the Du- luth Herald’s subscriptiun list is go- ing ahead by leaps and bounds as a result.

Matters in the business world are given equally as careful attention— the daily reports of the Duluth Board of Trade, the Duluth Produce Ex- change, Live Stock Market, the Du- luth-Iron and Copper Stocks and the doings of Wall street make the Herald of particular value to our people.
