England's Champions Blue.

England has been in a habit OF scott
ing at great many things American,
but she Is beginning to seriously con-
slider our yachts, our cricket eleven and
our athletes, because they have beaten
the best she had to offer. There is no
jingoism in asserting that we can beat
them in almost everything they choose
to suggest. Our railroads are better be-
cause better equipped. The Saint Paul
and Duluth, for instance always has the
latest equipment, and its luxurious
trains have always been an attraction.
The Duluth Short Line, as this road has
been popularity known for years, has
kept up its old patrons and gained new
ones by its attention to their comforts
and convenience, and it runs fast trains
at hours suitable to the business man
and the pleasure seeker, to and from
st. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, West
Superior, saltwater, Taylor's Falls and
other Northwestern points where close
connections are made with trains run

Frank Ross Again Heard From.

The rumor some how got started the
other day, about town, that members of
the County Board had asked some arch
iteCt what the cost of few needed re-
pairs to the court house would be
Granted that this rumor was true what
cause for mass meeting? Imam instant.
az soon az Mr.. Ross had heard of the
matter, and without investigating IL SEE,
II there was any committee appointed
by the County Board to renovate, and
rebuild the Court House, with power to
90 so without consulting tho citizens of
the county, or Mr.. Ross in particular,
he rushes into print, and calls mass
meeting of the people who were oppos-
ed to spending one cent toward improv-
ing the court house; who felt that IT
was not properly located and all those
who could see that it WAS a scheme to
improve the building, and then as the
statute SAYS after improvements value
ed at 5000 or more had been made it
would be impossible to move the build
ing before the expiration of five wears
lie also claims that the jail was built at
this end Of the city in order to keep
the court house here. Well, now, we
always thought that the jail was more
particularly built in order to keep the
Hon. Frank Ross out of the hole. to the
amount Of several hundred dollars.
But this is probably one of our bad
blunders, and no doubt Mr. Ross YER
sion Is correct. About the only time
one hears of Mr.. Ross is when the sub
Jcct of making any improvement on the
court house is brougt up, then one
would think he was the only man in
town that knew enough to act and save
a people from ruin

If our memory serves us right, aud
we think it does. the West Finders
were not going To say 4 word more
about moving the court house, after
they secured the establishment of the
Superior Court. They argued that they
needed a court; they had so much bust
ness, and the distance was very incon-
venient; and many other excuses were
advanced. and with the understanding
that they say no more about It, the bar
al this end assisted in getting
the Superior Court established, and

lily recall your actions at the time the
Jan was hunt. You were chairman of

if you stop to think, perhaps it will
come to you, that there were many peo-
pie who thought you got little more
than your share-of glory-of course
we mean, out of the Jail contract.
