SPOONER has returned Bemidji from the west, t appears to meet with hearty ap- val of the people of this big judi- a move pr cial district. {ae Independent is stuck on the Herald-Review. Least-wise it jopts the Herald-Reyiew’s style of ss and headletters—so far as it is tery, so the saying reads, and thereat we should nut complain. eee Ir now begins to look as though the legislative representatives both io the house and senate from the north half of the state would be strong enough to prevent the passage of a tonage tax law this session. This section has some pretty able men in the legislature who have made their influence felt. gee Iv MAY not be generally koown io Ftasca county, but it isa well knowo and freely acknowledged fact io St. Paul that Hon. D. M. Gunn is one of the foremost senators in the upper house of the state legislature. It is a matter of which any citizen in the district may justly feel a sense of pride when he happens to visit St. Paul and is told by leading law mak- from the Fifty-second district is recog- nized as ove of the most influential i highly respected members of the Mr. Guno has been ao state senate. important factor ia shaping some of the leading legislation that has been during the terms he has served in the house and senate. He enacted did not enter public life with a flour- ish of trumpets and attempt to win recognition of his presence through He inspired the contidence of his colleagues, who found him to be honest and earnest in his endeav- ers to serve the public; they found him intensely loyal to northeastern Minnesota and always faithful to the big and the little interests alike of the important district which he re- bresents; above all they found him to be upright and absolutely reliable in his dealings with his colleagues. His,word is a bond on which there is no default, His judgment on public questions has a high rating amoung the members of the senate and house, and his advice is given more thap ordinary consideration This is the report given of the senator from Grand Rapids by many men of promi- nence who are ina position to know whereof they speak. With such men as.D. M. Gunn in the senate the vast nverests of northern Minnesota will not suffer through legislative neglect. dae gage Searine Qu dependedent contemporarv does some figuring on how much nsoney the Herald-Review makes and how much the Independent doesn’t make. sorrect on figures, but it generally manages to figure itself out of every- thing that it most desires to have. In a table publishea last week the Independent figures that a great sav- ing would haye been made had the commissioners accepted the bid of ‘Timid Tony on county printiug. The damphool might have figured farther and shown conclusively that by not publishing anything the whole sum might. have. been. saved. But as it bombast. e. Imitation is the sincerest flat- | of both parties that the senator | The Independent isn’t very | happens, the commissioners don’t make the laws, but the law requires them to cause certain publications to be made in a paper of legal stand- ing, and the law fixes the price that shall be paid therefor. The commis- sioners are guilty of having done all ‘these things according to law. Tue Independent Says the Herald- Review is opposed to Jake Gole for the office of village recorder because Jake. would not vote to give the Herald-Review village printing. But that can’t be the reason. There is no foundation on which to base the conclusion. Jake has been twice elected to the office of village clerk and twice did Jake vote for the Herald-Review. We know of no reason why he should not do the same thing again—if given a chance. But, like the boy’s apple core ‘‘they ain’t goin’ to be none.” THE SEVEN LAST WORDS OF CHRIST A sacred cantata prepared by the Grand Rapids Choral society under the direction of Madame Daix-Des- ret will be rendered on Thursday evening, March the eleventh, at the High school auditorium.
