PAGE FOUR Brand Repias Werala-'MReview Published Every Wednesday By KILEY @ SPENCER Official Paper of Itasca County The Nashwauk Herald is years eld. Editor Haugan has been giving the people of his section of Itasca county a good newspaper and its ap-| pearance would indicate that his ef- forts in this direction been appreciated. Se ts Following the lead taken by the Duluth Evening Herald, the papers of the miaing sections of Northern Min- nesota have started a campaign agaiust the gun toter that should re- sult in the abolishment of the cow- ardly and inexcusable habit of I ging a revolver around. Hardly a week passes that does not its report of a homicide brought about have bring solely through the laxness of the pub- | practice | lic in not sufficiently. ing will help some, an aroused public sentiment that will regard the man with a gun as a crim inal before he has a chance it will be of far greater value. oo We do not think that the attempt being made in some quarters to have the state return to the old system of political conventions will be suc- cessful. Like all and untried measures the primary law is not per- fect, but the idea behind it is right and its defects will all be ironed out as they become apparent. To con- demn a law that has been tried but once because it does not do all that its sponsors claimed in the first flush of their enthusiasm would be like abandoning any other attempt at im- provement because of a few obstacles. Any change to be made in the fu- ture will be for the purpose of making the desires of the people still more easy of attainment instead of turning back to the old bungling, grafting convention system. ao VICIOUS AND DETRIMENTAL. Cass Lake Times: It was not a little refreshing to note in the Duluth Herald of a late date the skirmish be- tween Hon. C. M. King and the attor- ney general of the state relative to the conduct of the auditor’s depart- ment as well of the efforts of the de- partment of justice in carrying out the orders of the former department. The criticisms of the attorney gener- al are strictly technical and elusive. Mr. King not being “learned in the law” me be excused for using the terms “evicted” and technically the answer of the attorney general was correct, but the methods used to cor- rect the poor settler who had settled on the so-called government lands believing them to be open to home- stead entry amounted to the same thing as eviction, and the layman will so look upon it. For several years The Times has protested against the use of such lefthanded means to secure lands for the state which in right and justice belonged condemning the Laws against gun carry- undoubtedly but to use new lf Things Were Turned Around Bill: ‘Good mornin’ Joe, been to the city I hear? Joe: “Yes I went down with some pelts, butter, eggs, chickens, beeswax, etc., and sold them for cash to one of them big catalague houses. Mighty fine fellers them; the proprietors gave me a hearty welcome, gave me a cigar, laugh- ed and joked with me as they counted the eggs and weighed the other things; then invited me into their private office, asked about Pa, Uncle John and all the home folks, took me home to dinner with them; in fact, treated me fine and fluffy. Bill: “Well, I’spect you bought a lot of goods of ’em, Joe?” Joe: “No I sell ’em everything I want get rid of, and buy all my goods for cash at home. I’m a great home man, I am, and I firmly believe in pat- to ronizing home merchants. I ain’t ing to help build up some other man’s town; not much. Gid-ap.”’ Morat—Do as Joe did, stand by your home, town and market. H. D. Powers Hardware Dealer eo) ) A iv J Trade Mark Registered IT’S GOOD Ginger Ale Alfalfene Cream Soda Grape Taste Straw.

We are much pleased to have some one as able and virile as C. M. King come to the rescue and help to fight the battle we have been engaged in for the last six years and we feel that a few more such men in the little army of the north will eventu- ally bring the relief so long sought. HELP THE DEBATERS BY YOUR PRESENCE Grand Rapids Should Show Its Ap- r" tion of High School Team ; By Attend’ng Debate | The faculty and pupils of the high school have given notice to the effect that they want 400 people to come and hear the debate to be held be- tween the team of their school and that of the Ada high school on Saturday night. The teams are the champions in their respective con- | gressional districts and the winners of this debate will be entitled to en- ter the semi-finals. Should Grand Rapids again be successful in these it will mean that the representatives of the school will be entitled to com- pete for the championship of the statc at the contest to be held at the state | university in March. The locals have defeated every team they have thus far engaged but this is the first time that a trio of championship calibre has been met. The subject for dis-! | cussion will be: ‘Resolved, That All Judges Should be Subject to Popular | Recall, Constitutionally Granted.” Grand Rapids will maintain the affir- mative of this proposition. The mem- bers of the home team are: Helen Weitzel, Harold Brown and Eugene Cassidy, while Ada will be represent- | ed on the negative side by Alma Nat- wick, Henry Steining and William | Ogard. The judges will be Superin- tendent Peter Olson of Clouquet, and Superintendent George Keenan of Deer River, these two to choose a third from the audience. The Grand Rapids team is working to secure the silver cup given by the Minneapolis Journal to the best de- bating team in the state, and their chances for securing the trophy are| fully as good as those of any other contender. They have made a bril- liant start and deserve every encour- agement.
