The film, “A Tale of Two Cities,” was shown at the Gem recently and was seen by about 600 people.

Both are among the best in the United States and they should do a flourishing business. This will be handled in conjunction with their work as raveling representatives for the St. Benedictine line of Sisters’ hospitals. The Grand Rapids orchestra which has achieved a reputation for be- ing one of the best in northern Min- nesota, went to Deer River Tuesday where they gave a concert and dance that evening. Poth were well attended and it is needless to state tha he people of Deer River were given their money’s worth. The instrumentation of the orchestra is as follows: leader; H. J. Thompson, violin; C. E. Aikin, cornet; Victor Roecker, cornet; A. L. Wellein, clarinet; Ralph Botts, trombone; R. Hicks, French horn; Tekla Roecker, pianist; Geo. Hewis, cello; Joe. O’Day, drummer. A Cruel Gouncil. It is not only unkind, Price all times. Price, the -barrister, is village attorney. Heretofore he has acted in the same capacity, when he was permitted to be the whole coun- cil and the dog under the table. He would make, put and carry motions and resolutions and render himself generally useful without regard to the will of the representatives whom | the people had elected to transact the municipal business. Different now, however. He seems to enter- tain a wholesome fear of President Bossard’s stern rebuke and Council- man Arscott’s velocity as a trouble remover. The other members, too, seem to have more respect for their own opinions than they have for the mouthings of the vernaculous and voluminous legal adviser. It’s pitiful to see that animated heap of irre- sponsible explosives confined to si- lence and relegated to the rear by the cold mandates of parliamentary usages. Will Advertise Itasca, George I. Reid, representing the Duluth Daily Herald, has been in Grand Rapids during the week. As a result of his visit there will be pub- lished some good advertising of Itas- ca county in the 22nd or 29th of May edition of the Duluth daily. Mr Reid has been doing special work for the Herald throughout northern Minneso- ta, giving particular attention to the agricultural resources of this rich region. His writing is of the very best quality and has operated as a powerful agency is making known the opportunities for investment in agri- cultural lands in this vast territory of incomparable productiveness. Mr. Reid has made a special study of the work he is doing and does not re- sort to hyperbole or misrepresenta- tion in setting forth the advantages of northern Minnesota over other sec- tions. He gets the facts and states them plainly and concisely in a man- ner that carries conviction and in-| spires the confidence of the reader. His efforts in behalf of this county cannot fail to produce good results and the Herald-Review is pleased that he has been assigned to per-| form this important undertaking. Atwood Found Not Guilty The case of J. B. Atwood, the Ke- watin policeman, who was. charged with carnal knowledge and abuse of a girl under eighteen years of age occupied the attention of the court the major portion of the past week. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. Eli Mariam, of Nashwauk, was found not guilty of indecent assault. Anton Marica, who was found guilty of assault in the second degree on James Sullivan, at Ball Club, was sentenced to serve two years at hard labor at Stillwater. B. A. Hunter, the cracksman cap- tured at Cohasset, was senten®ed to seven years at hard labor on a charge of having burglary tools in his possession. Court was adjourned Tuesday and Judge McClenahan and Court Report- er Moody departed for Brainerd. Judge Wright arrived here this after- noon to preside on the bench. Needs No Accusing. The old saying that “a guilty con- science needs no accusing,” has been forcibly and disgustinlgy illus- trated in Grand Rapids during the past while.

But the conspicuous davits submitted to the district court. shown by the accused barrister on every possible occasion. At the vil- lage council meetings he raves and rants about “packed’”’ ‘and attempts to play the part of in- jured innocence, until President Boss- ard is moved to rule him out of or- der, immaterial and irrelavent. On other occasions he reminds one of Cell.” Again he belches forth in the district court room and tells the trial jury of the “conspiracies” that are prevalent in Itasca county to de- stroy the good names of pure men —all through the machinations of grand juries. In the “brawl” rooms of his favorite resorts he cries out in great agony and heaps coals of fire on those who dare attempt to invoke the law against his alleged of- fenses. To others he imparts the confidential informatin that “there will be something doing’’ when he op- ens his floodgates against ithe “gang.” All of which has comvinced the general public that the old say- ing above quoted is ever true.
