His ability is not stioned even by those who are, his friends. As attorney for the village of Grand Rapids and ral other municipalities of the county he has always acquitted timself with credit and to the satis- faction of the public which he served. Frank F. Price is absolutely fearless in the discharge of his duties. He would make an ideal prosecuting attorney, and if that’s what the people want he will be elected on the 3rd of November. WAS A PLEASANT FAMILY AFFAIR se Mr, Ernest Gross of the new town ef Calumet is one of the parties in- a terested in the proposed organization of that village, and was present at the hearing before the county board ast Thursday. He is joint owner with his brother in a portion of the jand desired to be incorporated. When the township of Greenway was organ- jzed Mr. Gross was absent on a visit so his old home ia Michigan, but notwithstanding this he was chosen ustice of the peace of the new towao- ship. Upon his return he modestly assumed the judical responsibility and duly qualified. His first official act was indeed a pleasant duty to perform. His son Carl was married on September 2nd to Miss Carry Betz- jer and Justice Gorss pronounced the words that made tbe twain as one. The bride is a sister of the wife of Mr. Gross’ youngest brother. As a result of the union Carl becomes brother-in-law to bis uncle aud aunt. Altogether it was quite a family affair.

He knows enough to know that this paper has a way of presenting facts that count with the people. When the Herald-Re- view offers a criticism it knows whereof it speaks. Jim has long known that this paper is in posses- sion of facts regarding his official record that would not look good in print. And so it happened that he boasted about town of how he would ‘lick’ the editor hereof should any- thing ever appear in these columns that in any manner reflected upon him. He had boasted so generally that when the facts appeared last week Jim had to make some sort of a showing. With fear and trembling he ac- costed the mild-mannered editor on the streets and got knocked down for his impudence. Jim says he will tackle the editor again if any- thing more is said about him. That's the reason we refrain from mentioning his name this week. The next time he might draw his stilletto. In fact he may have had it with him last week but had no opportunity to make the usual in- cisions, as is the custom of his countrymen. C. M. KING, Deer River Democratic Nominee for Commis- sioner, First District. The Deer River News puts it force- jably in the foliowing pointed para- graphs: What should a public officer be? A | public servant. What should he do? Do what his constituents want him to do, or resign. Cyrus M. King has done what you ; asked him to do, and didit effectively. He has done what was greatly need- ed to be done, and did it weil. He is doing what means the very life of the western half of the county, Does the development help any- body? Do you want it to continue? Which one of the men do you think most likely to do the best work? What are you doing about it? Se Given Suspended Sentence. Joho Francisco, who was arrested last week for using his ivories on the thumb of John Pollar, and biting off a portion thereof, pleaded guilty io Justice Huson’s court to a misde- meanor on Monday, and was allowed his liberty on a suspended sentence and the payment of costs in the case. Tbe charge was a serious one and if prosecuted would probably have re- sulted insending theoffeadertothepen- itentiary. Francisco was under the influence of liquor when he committed the crime. He issaid by his neigh- bors to be a peaceable citizen when sober and a man of industrious habits. He has a wife and several small children dependent upon him, who in all likelyhood would have become county charges had the husband and father been deprived of his liberty. County Attorney Thwing and Judge Huson were inclined to deal leniently with Francisco under the circum- stances, and as the injured man failed to appear against him he was let off as stated above. This experience should be a lesson to him that will last a lifetime. A Ride Down the River. Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Clair aod the editor hereof and wife with Thomas Murphy of the Swan River Logging company aschaperon of the quartette made a trip down the river to Missis- sippi landing on the steamer Oriole last Sunday, leaving Grand Rapids at 6a. m. and reaching Mississippi at 11:30. The distance between these two points by river is sixty-five miles and by rail is only éighteen miles. Arriving at Mississippi we had but a brief wait before dinner was announc- ed. And, by the way, it was adinner that would do credit to any first-class hotel, bearing the cut glass, silver- ware and Haviland china. The “gumps” faised at headquarters are certainly the equal of any that grow in this northern clime. Chaperon Murphy guaranteed that he would see the party landed at Swan River in time to catch the 3:20 train east home, returning to Grand Rapids on the midnight passenger. For genuine hospitality and careful attention to guests we unhesitatiogly recommend Tom Murphy. We have about con- cluded to spend our bdbting season vacation with him at headquarters.

Bob and Eva at Home. — Bob and Eva McGinley, the Grand Rapids stage favorites, who are proud to call this place their home, arrived bere on Sunday last. -They are both looking fine and are as jolly as ever. They have with them “Little Alvina,’ who performes on the stage in a man- ner that has ehicited unstinted praise from the press of the country. Bob and Evaare presenting entertainment to the public this season that is said to be far superior to anthing they have had heretofore, and they have always been excelleat entertainers, and prime favorites with the people wherever they show. Today they will drive out to their summer resort, known as ‘‘Itasca Mineral Springs,” twelve miles southeast of town on the state road, where they will enjoy an outing until the 23rd inst. On that date they will open the season at Village ball. Mr. and Mrs. McGinley have many warm friends in Grand Rapids who are always delighted to welcome them home. The regret is that their stay this season will be limited to a few days instead of several weeks, Miss Florence Ethel Shook, former- ly of Grand Rapids, who has been a teacher in the Northome public schools, was married at Cass Lake on the 8th inst, to bk. R. Scribner. The young couple will reside at Northome. Mr. Scribner is in the employ of a logging company at that place. JUDGE H. S. HUSON Republican Candidate for the Office of Judge of Probate. Judge Huson has made good. He attends to the duties of his office every working day of the week, every week of the month and every month of the He has proven his worth as a public servant. He isan old soldier who bears the scars of battle. He 1s not now able to perform manual labor. Judge Huson should be retained his present position. He well deserves the confidence that has been reposed in him in the past. year. Shameful Deception. “{ understand that old Gabsa Golde deceived Dolly dreadfully about his age.” “Yes. He told her before they were married that he was eighty-two, and here it turns out that he is only sixty- five.” See ===] TANGA MERCANTILE MA We Save YOU MONEY COMFORTS THEBIG THE on Underwear Low Prices.

Last Trip of the Season. The steamer Oriole of Aitkin has made her last trip to Grand Rapids for the season of 1908. At six o’clock Sunday morning she pulled out and will not be seen again at this port until navigation opens on the Missis- sippi next spring. The Oriole is a trustworthy craft having been built last year especially for service on the upper river. This is ber first season out and she has enjoyed a very good business from the start. The boat is owned by the captain, C. D. Viebahn, aod the engineer, W. V. Puteney. She 1s 108 feet over all and 22 feet wide. She is adouble decker, provided with a commodious parlor, good sleep- ing accommodations for sixteen pas- sengers, a pleasant dinning room, is heated by steam and lighted by elec- tricity. It is strange that so few Grand Rapids people took advantage of the delightful pleasure trip thus offered during the ,past summer to makea visit to Aitkin and mean- while view the picturesque scenery along the Mississippi. It is an op- portunity not vouchsafed to all com- munities. But like the idle rich, who pine for pleasure and find it not, we forget to appreciate that nature kas been prodigal in lavishing luxuries on this particular section, and we go on unmindful of the blessings that are offered and may be had for the taking.
