It keeps an eye on every move that is calculated to help the peo- | ple.

It points out the advantages of its | town and country so that the world; may see iit, and when a man gets! mad it takes a “cussing” as cooly | as anybody, but hews straight to} the line just the same. There are | thousands of reasons why a town | should support a newspaper, but| the greatest of all is because it; ys, and pays well, to support it—! New Postmaster. Oscar Johnson, proprietor of the} Sebeka Mercantile Co., and one of the wealthiest men of Nashwauk, has been appointed postmaster at Nashwauk by President Wilson to succeed P, H. Tvedt, who has held} the office ever since the incorpor- ation of the village. Mr. Johnson is a democrat and has been work-/} ing quietly for. the appointment for | several months. Just when the new postmaster will take charge is not known as Mr. Johnson was out of town this week.—Nashwauk Her- ald. i Mine Policy May Go If the bill introduced in the senate last week by Senator Mar- tine, of New Jersey, becomes a law, the Oliver Iron Mining company will be obliged to do away with its private organization. The railroads will also be compelled to disband their organizations of a similar character. The bill is an outcome of the West Virginia investigation, and prohibits corporatons engaged in interstate commerce from main- taining private police organiza- tions. Mining men, and others interest- ed, believe, however, that the bill will not be passed. Lynch And Lawler (St: Cloud Times.) Fred B. Lynch is a high minded, honorable gentleman. He is not a seeker for office, but for years has sought, labored for and expended large sums of money in the cause of the Democratic party. He was one of the very early advocates of! Governor Wilson, while Mr. Lawler we believe, was supporting another candidate. Mr. Lynch may not have “appeared upon a public platform during a campaign as an exponent of Democratic ideas” (few Demo- crats, comparatively speaking, did,) but he was in the front rank in the political battle of last year and his authority to recognition of the aho Senator.” Maybe, if this incident and Sena- |tor Bristow’s indignation over Mr. Bryan's conduct are studied toge- ther, a connection will be discover- ed. ‘ It was Senator Bristow, by the way, who in 1906, when he was a vate citizen without a public of-, fice, but in search of one, who wrote this letter to Senator Long of Kansas: “I think I would like to have one of those advisory places on the ca- nal commission. They pay $7,500 and require a visit to the isthmus once in every three months. I could hold it and live in Kansas, being at least, half my time, and when the fight got hot, I could re- sign —Duluth Herald. GOOD PEN PICTURE OF DEPOSED WARDEN We have noticed recently in dif- ferent papers some things spoken by the famous “ex-gamewarden at large,’ George Wood, and what must shortly come to pass to all other wardens who served under this great chief. We note the name of Mr. Jesse Harry, of Grand Ra- pids, who will soon be removed; Mr. Thomas Story of Duluth, who now trembles for his very exist- ence; Mr. Matson, the famous war- den; Mr. Carmichael of Bena; Mr. Bailey of Bemidji; C. V. Smith, the logger warden, and, in fact, all jthose who have an appointment— even the Game and Fish commis- sign; also Governor Eberhart may lose his job. Now, Georgia, we have heard your voice, which sounds like dis- tant thunder before the rushing of a mighty storm, and we exceeding- ly fear and quake, for we know thou art a mighty man and hold the destinies of men in the hollow of thy hand. Thou great and ter- rible king of Game Wardens, have mercy! I repeat it, have mercy! Though we know thou wast not highly exalted enough for the great position thou didst hold. Thou should’st have had mo- tor boats, automobiles, rapid-firing guns and aereoplanes to cover the great work that was set before thee. But a prophet is without hon- or in his own country. But, dear chief, why did you not} come and visit your poor vassal when you were in his territory last fall, that I might have done homage to you? When the Finn womandirected you past my humble cot, why did you sneak past on some by-road and tell her you did not want.to see me? I have always sought your presence and carried dark glasses, fearing the brightness of your. countenance would dazzle me. Still, as long as I have worked for you I have never had the pleas- ure of meeting you face to face. Still you know my territory better Attacked with a Pitch Fork No one hurt and no legal proceed- ings will follow. The case is one where Bill Jones attacked a straw stack with one ot our Keen-Kutter Forks Bill says it is the best fork he ever used, and hereafter he will buy no other make. : Ee paid us 75 cents for it snd we will sell you one at the same price. H. D.P OWERS of | than Apropos to a discussion of whe- | se isi ti three years. wisdom exceedeth all ‘nowledge. O, Chief, live forever. CouldI have met you om my territory I should j}surely have made a lord of you, Of }eourse I had no valuable furs or \fine guns to offer you. What I con- |fiseated was sent to St. Paul, but \had I known you were making up ba collection of such, I might have | slipped you a few. But show us mercy, mighty chief, “He that slays by that |for it is written: 7 lwith the sword shall be slain lthe sword”; and remember 3 block you uttered a deep groan that lis still heard from Eveleth to Vir- |ginia. You were great, but . thene was given you a thorn in the flesh. \Bsau sold his birthright for a mess | of pottage and afterwards sought jit in tears. And when Baalam was padding his expense account and gathering ermine furs for a mantle the dumb ass spoke with a man’s voice and forbade the madness of the prophet. And though a man strive for mastery, yet is he not crowned except he strive lawfully. I hear a large noise about an ap- pointment of another warden in your territory. Why, with all your assistants that are now working as scabs under the guise of a warden {that has no commission, if there is so much violation going on, does not Mr. Brown take up some.of this ‘real stuff and get his reward, and not come into Itasca county and try ‘to arrest citizens for having min- nows for bait? From the song the gun clubs are singing about viola- tions, it seems it would be fat |picking for the scabs Wood ha= manufactured? But Brown is not a good color in Itasca county—black jor white preferred. We notice the gun club of Vir- ginia has written of wholesale vio- lations in the logger warden’s country. That would be a grand place for you game and fish hogs, who have found shelter under the shield of Mr. Wood for the past few years. Now, this same _ dis- trict abounds with game and fish. Come over, hogs, for game and fish, and pull off something. The game is fine and the fish biting good. Come and get some, Mr. Pigs. You ‘shall be royally entertained, for I, who had the honor of working un- der your Great and Honored ex- warden, Mr. George Wood, will see that you have safe conduct back. | But, honored chief, how we do miss you. And not only us wardens, but think of the poor and afflicted who dwell far from town. Just think how the poor mothers and half clad children will miss your com- ing to drag the father from the humble cot. Think of the weeping )you have caused them for some pet ty offence. Remember, how you would ery: “Make’a clean breast of it and I will make it easy for you.” Think of the mountain you would make of a mole hill andget him sentenced for thirty or sixty days. Think of the furs, guns, and es- pecially one moose hide you have at William Wetgel’s now. to get tanned. Think and remember the fine floral bouquets you used to send from Duluth to the lady stenographer at Grand Rapids. | Remember ‘these few things mentioned here, and don’t forget | what pleasure you enjoyed in this riotous work; how you would smile as you read in some paper of some big haul you made—yes, manufact- ured, rather. And don’t forget when you were brought before the bar of justice in district court at Grand Rapids, not for a violation but for a crime, how you laughed at the other corner of your mouth. Before the judge did you break down and tears rolled profusely over the face that was set and stern; and the lips that scorned the pleadings of a patient, weeping wife and mother, now trembled and loud sobs reached the ears of ja multitude of people. Yes, you who have boasted of be- {ing in charge at one ¢ime of half dozen wardens that had the same appointment as you. You whocon- stantly had your gname before the public; you who would_commit a crime to find some evidence of a violation; you, who would scour the state of Minnesota, not with fire and sword, but with a gang jof scabs and game hogs and would turn the whole state over and search the other side for some poor settler, with a house full of lean, poor children, to further your persecutions. Yes, this is the brave, dauntless ex-warden, with a bunch of pups, that is trying to scandalize the Game and Fish commission and every game warden, and are mak- ing ready to besiege the capital building at St. Paul to get this man of character and renown re-in- stated as warden. But it is writ- ten: “He shall be buried with the burial of an ass.” THE LOGGER GAME WARDEN. Thou art wise. Thy AUDITOR'S CALENDAR August 8—Warrants for bills al- lowed July 24 are due and pay- able.

Minnesota has won ten of the twelve inter-state prizes for high quality butter, Made by buttermak- ers trained by the Minnesota Agri- cultural College, and a buttermaker trained by the Minnesota Station won one of the other fwo. Minne- sota butter, therefore, is the stan- dard fcr the United States, and won the highest award at the Paris Exposition. When it is re- membered that a ton of butter con- tains only 60 cents worth of soil fertility, it is evident that this is a profitable kind of’ agriculture, when considered from the stand- point of the conservation of nat- ural resources of the soil—A.
