Grand Rapids Peraias'Review Published Every Wednesday By E. C. KILEY. TWO DOLLARS A FEAR IN ADVANCE Batered in the Postoffice at Grand Rapid Minnesota. as Second-Class Matter, THE HERALD-REVIEW IS THE Official Paper of Itasca County. Official Paper of Village of Grand Rapids. Official Paper of Village of Cohasset. Official Paper of Village of Keewatin. Official Paper of Village of Nashwauk. Official Paper of Village of Holman. Official Paper of U. S. Dis- trict Court in Bankruptcy Proceedings. Designated by State and National Officials as the Of- *ficial Paper for the publica- tion of all legal notices to be made through their re- spective offices in Itasca Co. Recognized by Everybody as the Leading Weekly Newspaper of Northeastern Minnesota. MRR ENE an) Tue Coleraine Optie caricature— he who reflects in form and feature a pitible specimen of the mangy dog genus—is so overjoyed at the at- tention given him by the Herald Re- view in its last issue that he fairly prances, in his weak and uncouth way, to attract additional notice from this peer of Itasca county papers. The mention of his paper or name, no matter in what connection, through these columns, is sufficient to lead him to believe that he is emerging from the obscurity of filth in which he has been so long en- veloped and is ascending to the high plane of our distinguished consider- ation, But the poor imbecile is mis- taken. The Herald-Review cannot perform miracles; cannot transform one of his make and mind to the dig- nity of man, any more than it could transtorm a polecat to a pigeon, The Herald-Review is delighted, however, to note that the Coleraine cur is still possessed of sufficient animation to sit up and take notice when he is kicked and cuffed by his superior. In common with creatures of his kind, he cannot enter into intelligent discussion of any subject, but he can bark and whine and spew his evident appreciation of the fact that the Her ald-Review so far forgot its accus- tomed dignity as to even recognize his presence as an unclean spot upon the face of the earth. For having done so the Herald-Review makes sincere apology to its readers and pledges no repetition of the public offense after he has again been con- signed to his proper piace. Herald-Review also frankly admits its guilt of tresspass on the duties of the} official scavanger of Coleraine when it interfered with the Optic and the cur that controls it. BERRYHILL of the St. Paul Review up the situation in this tragic manner; ‘If the Panama libel in- quiry results in the postponement of the African hunting trip, Pulitzer de- to be hung. If Fairbanks had his hand in the pie, Indian should be expelled from the Union.” sizes serves a Dip you ever see the Coleraine} Optic incubator? He addresses the editor of the Herald-Review as his brother. If we were not the best natured and most forgiving gentleman in all Itasca County the implied in- sult would be vigorously resented. But what’s the use—he don’t know who his brother is. —————>—____ Tue Cass Lake Times issued a very} creditable special edition last week. It was illustrated with scenic and structural pictures to an extent that made it attractive and interesting. and being printed ona good quality of book paper makes a very desirable publication for the citizens of that community to send abroad as an advertiser. : Tue International Falls Echo, edited by that charmingly aesthetic and lady-like individual, familiarly known to his personal chums as “Monty the Monk,” acknowledges his mistaken opinion of the Herald- Review hitherto, and boldly an- nounces that the editor hereofis “the only pewspaper mano in the northern part of the state who is possessed of apy ability,” and hence the Echo The} grants that this paperis entitled to rank as the peer ofall its contem- poraries. ee ple ae PINHEAD partisan papers that are trying to make capital against Gov. Jvboson on account of Supt. Olsen’s appointment to the position of dean of the agricultural school should re- member that it is the repubiican members of the board of regents to, whom Mr. Olsen is indebted for his appointment and that it was the democratic regents (appointed by Goy. Johnson) who opposed Mr. Ol- sen.--Martin County Sentinel. —_— ~~. In the appointment of committees by Speaker Rock neew note that our old friend P. H. McGarry, of Walker, has been placed on the ‘‘temperance” committee of the Minnesota legisia- ture. Considering the fact that Mr. McGarry during his residence in Virginia conducted a saloon, the appropridteness of the appointment cannot but appeal to the old-time friends of our former townsman.— Virginia Enterprise. pee a ae Tue attention ot those who ex- ercise control and management of the model town of Coleraine is called to the last issue of the eyeless Optic. There’s a pipe joint in that town and the eyeless editor hits the dream _pro- duce, As evidence thereot glance at the first column of the fourth page of his paper—the place where most local papers print editorials. If there isn’t conclusive proof to be found there ofthe existence of an opium joint in the vicinity of the Optic office there’s no use trying to get a convic- tion. None but a_ pipe-dreamer could have produced the unintilligible conglomerate that is printed on the page indicated. A model town should not harbor a “pipe joint.” ems, Tue Fioodwood Broadaxe can’t be knocked out by a fire. While the re- cent blaze that destroyed the princi- pal hotel of the place, Dr. Triplett’s drug store and the Br oadaxe office was a severe blow to the property owners, the Broadaxe appeared on time with- out missing an issue.” Dr. M. N. Triplett, the editor, and E. R. Robin- son, his newspaper partner, are not the sort of men who are easily dis- couraged. They found an old build. ing unoccupied, except by minature snow drifts, patched it up a bit and the next day were setting up a print- ery in one end anda drugery in the other. They are doing business just as though nothing unusual had taken place, and the Broadaxe is as bright, breezy and entertaining as ever. May it long continue to cut into corrup- tion and peel the bark off the ‘bad ones.” “KICKERS” GETTING BUSY. Criticism of the legislature is al- ready being sent out to the country papers by some of the ‘‘correspond- ence bureaus” established in St. Paul for the session. Nothing could be more unfair. Not a single member of either branch has had a chance as yet to demonstrate whether he is saint or sinner and yet we are told by these correspondents that “the people must be extremely watchful” if this or that thing is to be done this winter. These writers would convict be- fore the commission of any crime. 1f the legislature does not on *the opening day correct every existing evil it is evidence of corruption gone rampant. A body of men represeat- ing sixty-three districts, each hav- ing seperate interests and demands distinct from the other, are expected to get together in a few days on every proposition that comes up. Less would be expected of a board charged with the running of a country tow mill. If members of the legislature vio- late their pledges to the people they should be criticised--as they most always are--but the stamp of disapproval should be placed on the senseless and unfair criticisms sent out’by some disgrdntled place-hunter or 1tchy-palmed grafter. It is incon ceivable that respected men, elect- ed by the people under the direct primary law, should turn rascals the minute they reach St Paul. And if these critics who are out with the openly avowed intention of “raising hl” with somebody don’t over- reach themselves in the besmirching process, we miss our guess.--Bemidji Pioneer, Secccerscoosccoooe | TRY ONE OF $ HILLING’S BOT DRINKS IT WILL DO THE HEART GOOD Hot Tomato Boullion Hot Ciam Bouilion Hot Chocolate Hot Cocoa Hot Beef Tea Hot Soda Hot Egg Phosphate Hot Lemonade Ice Cream and Crushed Fruit SODA WATER ANY FLAVOR My stock is always Fresh Clean and Up-To-Date 1 also have the finest line of canned goods in the city H.W.
