Now Mr. Bryan finds it .advisable to 3absent himself from Washington during his summer vacation and the same people who viewed his continued presence there with such alarm are now claiming his tem- porary absence is a matter of grave concern and that his sticking on the job is absolutely necessary. se Miss Lucretia Dickinson, who has} been the editorial “we of the Itasca County Independent while Editor LaFreniere has been show- ing the neighbors how little he Knows about farming, will soon sever her connection with that pub- lication. Miss Dickinson goes the way of all ambitious young news- paper folks who get a foothold in Grand Rapids—to the News Tri- bune at Duluth. She is a hustler, has the ability and isn’t afraid, and her many friends here will be greatly surprised if she does not do more than, make good in her mew field. We certainly wish her luck. pees eae LE One of the most important and popular departures from precedent is the action. of. the treasury de- partment in announcing that it stands ready. to deposit $150,000,000 in the benks of the West and South to faciliiute the-moving of crops. All the money heretofore provided for this purpose has Deen ceposited in the banks. of New York and Chicago, leaving the sec- tions actually in need of the cash to make what arrangements they could with the bankers of these cities. This is a move, the import- ance of which can hardly be over- estimated, and it is one of the many in the right direction for which the Wilson administration must be given credit. —_—_—_—___ The Industrial Workers of the World did not make out very well in their attempt to cripple the ore traffic of the Great Lakes and in- cidentally of the country.

S. Huson. Deputy Sheriff Carson made the arrest and later Justice ! Kearney allowed the aecused his ‘liberty on his own recognizance un- !til this Morning, when a hearing was had. Several witnesses were examined who overheard Mr. Weit- zel’s verbal assault on Mr. Huson. Justice Kearney concluded that if Mr, Weitzel had not been under the influence of liquor the trouble would not have occurred, and al- lowed him to go after “taking the pledge” not to drink intoxicating liquors for a period of three months. Both Messrs Huson and Weitzel are old soldiers of the Wivil war. Under a state law all soldiers of ‘641 to ‘65, who may be in need, are entitled to state aid in the sum of six dollars monthly. The board having control of issu- ing this monthly pittance appoints an agent in each county to report jon worthy cases. Comrade Huson acts as such agent for Itasca coun- ty. Comrade Weitzel had been re- ceiving such aid until recently, when it was discontinued. He charged Huson with being the cause of his loss of the six dol- lars per month, and last Monday afternoon he called at Huson’s of- fice when it is said he made use of very abusive language and also threatened to employ violence with fatal results. Weitzel was un- der the influence of liquor at the }Kiley & Spencer, publishtag” ‘pro~ time. Under all the circumstan- ces Justice Kearney felt that no further trouble would be likely to arise if the old warrior of Buck- tail fame would abstain from fur- ther indulgence in fighting fire water.

Its wheels roll along under big loads for you— towering racks of hay and grain, sacks of produce over miles of roads to market, loads of sand and gravel, anything that needs moving. When next you ride on top of a load, listen to the constant racking, creaking, groaning sound of the wagon box and wheels, as the load pitches back and forth over theroadruts. It takes solid strength to stand up long under that. I H C wagons— Weber Columbus Steel King give the buyer the most he can get for his money because they defy hard usage for the longest time, and are easiest on the horses. These are a few of the things that contribute to the making of the unbeatable I H C wagon reputation. Selection of the finest les of lumber, oak, hickory and pine, and’ of the best quality steel and iron; many months of toughen- ing, air-drying of every piece of wood; skilled assembling of parts, fitting of bolts and Tivets, and perfect shaping and ironing; application ‘of the purest paint to act as wood preserva~ . tive and to prevent shrinking and warping of the wood.
