THE “BOB” DUNN ISSUE. it is very interesting, if somewhat bewildering, to contemplate the vari- ety of advice that is being freely do- mated to the Republican party in Mionesota at present. Obviously, the party is in need of advice, in iew of its third successive defeat in state while the commonwealth as remained unassailably Republi- can io national contests. hut if tbe party follows the advice bhat)-s being handed out to 1t by the garty ;press, it will have a merry time. Not to put too finea point apon it, iL will bave a dickens of a time. wv instance, we note in one group of newspapers that the only way to vilitate the party is to nomivate R. ©. Dunn, the explosive statesman from Mille Lacs county, and thereby right the ‘‘wrong” that was done bim vaeen he fell the first victim to the famous Johnson movement io this state Also, we note from another group »f newspapers that the Republican party cannot hope to succeed in this state, @ter again, unless “Bob Dunn” is laid away in permanent cold stor- age. Now, what is a poor party todo in the predicament provided by these Swe opposing forms of adyice, both of vehich are given with great positive- wl mess and solemnity? To refuse to seminate Mr. Duoo for goveruor means more defeats, and to fail to fay him away, bound and gagged, in the quiet of the political tomb, also aieans more defeats. As an indepen- dent newspaper, itis not our prov- jace to supplement this advice fucther than with the suggestion that since it seems to come to the same thing in the end, whichever way is taken, the party might hark- en to the Hon. Joel P. Heatwole, who, from his snug thicket, engages merrily in the game‘of speeding pois- yned arrows at the eminent head of everybody who shows up above the common level and is mentioned for any office higher than county com- missioner. The obvious burden of the merry lay he sings meanwhile is that there is no virtue in Minnesota outside the breast of Joel, and how can the party afford to overlook this repository of all the political graces aod amenities? 5 But in spite of the Heatwolean solo af inferential self praise, Mr. Duon can congratulate himself that he is the livest issue, one way or another, im the ranks of the Republican party ia this state.—Duluth Evening Herald. toe The Fortunate Fat Man. ‘There is a little argument going the ruunds of the country press and itisimpressive. It is to the effect that the fat man gets the best of eyerything in life, just because he teoks the part, is conducted to the best tables at restaurants, isn’t ex- pected to stoop to pick up things for people, always seems to have enough money to get along with and has a general and highly convincing air of peusperity that compels respect.— Mary D. McFadden, in Duluth News Tri Concerning which the C: Lake Times wants to know if that’s what the doctors call ‘fatty degen- bune. eration The Herald-Review has hing to offer on the subject—lets yp it. Improved Service. | The Mesaba Telephone company has put in an exchange service at Bovey and Coleraine, and the people much pleased thereat. Phe service at Grand Rapids will also be improved as a consequence. Here- tefore Bovey and Coleraine tolls all passed through this office, and of avhich it will now be relieved. thereof are Get printing at Herald-Review. € MUSTC HE SHOT A PIG A Michigan Man Gets a Fine Pork- er That Looked Like a Big Buck Deer. Jobn Hayes of Bay City, Michigan, a brother of Mrs. E. F. Logan, has been spending a few days here on a visit. He was accompanied by Fred Black also of Bay City, who invaded northern Minnesota for the express and only purpose to bag a couple of deer and one moose. And so it come tc pass that Messrs. Hays and Black made a trip to Crooked Lake and camped with Ed. Grady, the famous farmer of that region. Black ac- knowledged that he was fresh in the deer hunting line, but claimed to be a fair shot with a rifie—a fact that he took occasion to demonstrate at the first opportunity. Mr. Hays stationed Mr. Black on a likely-looking ‘run- way,’’ and gave full instructions as to how he should perform when the deer came along that was to be driven out of a nearby tamarac swamp. The gentleman on the ‘‘run-way” did not have long to linger. Something was heard making rapid strides through the swamps and Black was ready with his trusty rifle. Presently a large, ferocious looking animal heve in sight. To the sport on the lockout log the beast was of enormous pro- portions, and certainly could be nothing Jess than a full grown buck. Takiog careful aim he fired, and with one agonizing grunt the animal went down to death. It wasa pig. A full aad satisfactory settlement was made with the owner and Black forthwith returned to his Bay City home. It had been agreed to keep the story out of the papers, and thus spare Mr. Black from the torments of his Michi- gan friends should they be advised of the facts. Otherwise the Herald-Re- view would tell about the small pork packing establishment on the banks of Crooked lake. Every Town Has One or Two. An exchange says every town has a liar or two,a smartaleck, some pretty girls, more loafers than it needs, a woman that tattles, ao old fogy the town would be better off without, men and sports who stand on street corners and make remarks about the women, the man who langhs an idiotic laugh everytime he says anything, scores of men with the caboose of their trousers worn smooth a3 glass, men who can tell you just how the war question should have been settled, foretell the weather and how to run other peoples business— all-of whom have made a dismal failure of their own. Martin Stadig Dead. Martin Stadig, aged 30 years, died at his home near the city power house last Monday morning of typhoid fever. The deceased leaves a wife and four children to mourn the loss of father and husband. The youngest child is only six weeks old. The re- mains were taken to McIntosh for interment yesterday. Martin Stadig was first engineer at the electriclight and water plant, where he had served the municipality faithfully during the past three years. He hada large circle of friends whose sympathy and condolence is extended to the bereaved wife and little children. As Told in Minneapolis. The following was printed in the Minneapolis Journal last Sunday. The gentleman referred tp was ar- rested, tried and convicted here uader the game laws. The incident was re- ported in the last issue of the Herald- Review, but the following details will be news to those who had to do with the case: “Ki. Officer,a well known soprtsman of Los Angeles and a contributor to many sporting magazines, had to pay 75 before a justice of the peace in Grand Rapids, Mion., for running on- to too many deer. The Californian had the regular hunter's license for two deer and a moose. When he saw the third deer he thought he would substitute it for the moose to which he was entitled. The game warden at Grand Rapids, however, refused to allow the deer to pass under an as- sumed name, and Mr. Officer was taken to court. There he was fined $75, and the warden beld twovaluable guns while the defendant went to a bank and cashed a check. When he was released he was given possessior. of two deer, but No. 3 had disap- peared.” ODDO DOOD OOD00 = Gocal andjInstrumental also French Language. Madam Daix-Despret ¢ EPost-Office Box:S452 CS BUT NOT A DEER|RATES AFTER JAN. 1 HIGHER TEL'PHONE Representative of Mesaba Tele- phone Company Here to Meet the Subscribers. Representatives of the Mesaba Tel- ephone Company are in the city call- ing upon subscribers and securing their signatures tu the new class of telephone rates. The Herald-Review interviewed R. F. Landis, yeneral contract agent, this morning and was advised to the effect that nearly all of their sub- scribers had signed the agreement and signified their intention of con- tinuing the service of the Mesaba company. The plan of introducing the ad- vance in rates is looked upon as be- ing bandled in a proper aud satis- factory manner. The company could merely notify the subscribers by let- ter to the effect that after the first of the year such a rate would be in effect. However, they have sent representatives here who call on each subscriber explaining in detail the proposed plan and putting the propo- sition upto them in a business-like manner. The Mesaba Telephone company has aimed to gain the good will of the subscribers in Grand Rapids and calling on the people individually, explaining the move they intend making, is certainly in keeping with their friendly relations to them. The advance in telephone rental, Inaugurated because of the improved condition of the telephone plant and service, is directly in line with what other cities and towns are doing ia the’state. $ BASSBROOK LIVERY$ JAMES ROSS, Proprietor.
