Heretofore some no specialist has been employed to carry on this work. This year in order to put the department on a sound basis, Mr. A. B. Scott, of Benton Harbor, Mich., has been em- ployed to give his whole time to teaching commercial subjects. Mr. Scott is a man of first-class train- ing in his special line of work, and has had several years experience as a teacher in a high grade commercial college at Benton Harbor.

Mr. Hoisington, of Clarion, Ia.., comes to take charge of the manual training department. Mr. Hoisington received his training at the Univer- sity of Michgan and the the Ypsi- lanti Normal school.

In district No. 3 John P. Trebilcock is a candidate to succeed himself and judging by the record made by him during the past two years he will find little opposition.

In the first district George E. Ruby of Deer River, has filed for commis- sioner on the Republican ticket. He is an old resident of the county and is recognized as a man of sound busi- ness judgment. That his fellow citizens have confidence in him is evidenced by the fact he is serving his fifth year as one of the trustees of the village of Deer River. With a full knowledge of the needs of his district and the county at large, it is not to be wondered at that the]. voters take very kindly to his candi- dacy and the Herald-Review pre- dicts his election on the 8th day of November.

Archie McWilliams, commissioner from the Fifth district, is also a can- didate to succeed himself and is cer- tainly entitled to the office. He is another pioneer resident of Itasca county, coming here in the early days and having traveled all over the county from one end to the other, it will be hard to find a man more thoroughly posted on its every need. (At the annual meeting of the board of county commissioners, his brother commissioners, recognizing his ability and fairmindedness, elect- ed him chairman of the board and his selections of committees, etc., has stamped him as a man of more than ordinary business acumen. Edward Logan, of Marble, has filed in opposition to him. G. H.
