The republican state central
committee last week Strengthened
out the muddle between Red Lake and
Beltrami county on the apportionment
Of delegates to the representative dis
trict convention. BY some oversight
no committee was appointed two years
ago authorized to call legislative
convention and a decidedsdifference Of
opinion exists as to the matter of app
portionment, of deleg ates.
The committee fixed the vote on gov
ernor, SO both couRties will have the
same number Of delegates. Allowing
one delegate for every 100 votes and a
fraction, each will have four or FIVE
delegates. DR.. Watson Of Red Lake
Falls, Ira Richardson of Thief River
Falls and w. f. Street Of Bemidji,
were appointed as the legislative com
mittee for the district. The convention
will be held il Red Lake Falls Sept.

a Singing Rebuke
Administered to Judge Holland
and Attorney Larrabee.

A decision was handed down Aug.
i in the Supreme Court, BY Justic,
Lewis, in the damage suit brought b,
Margaret x. Martin, widow OF Jos. "A
Martin vs.. DR.. Walter Courtney
Judge Holland is again reversed, and
q new trial granted. The case ha.
twice before been appealed to the Su
preme Court with the same result.
In his decision, Judge Lewis reflects
rather severely upon both Judge Hol
land and Frank Larabee, OF Minneap,
oils, attorney for Mrs. Martin. The
St. Paul Dispatch, ia referring to the
decision, says:
1.-THE Supreme Court, in a decision
today by Justice Lewis, administered a
singing rebuke to Attorney Frank
Larrabee, Of Minneapolis, and Judge
Holland of the Fifteenth Judicial Dis
trict, comes in tor another, but little
Jess severe. =
In the first appeal, the court held
that the wrong party had been made
defend ant. The second decision laid
down the rules as to expert testimony
that the practices and principles Of
physicians OF given school should
be judged by physicians OF the same
school.
Larrabee found this rule objection
able and stated before the jury, in re-
plying TO the objection Of defend ants
attorney to one of his witnesses, that
the rule of the Supreme Court was in
his judgment rotten as hell ITSELF Z
Attorney Butler, for the defense,
objected to this language but was
overruled any way he could put it.
The Supreme Court makes the fol-
lowing rulings regarding the rulings
Of the court in the controversy and
with regard to Larrabee's language:
sFirst-It was prejudicial il its
effect upon the jury.
Second was error for the trial
Judge to refuse to direct the attorney
to withdraw it.
sThird-It was error to refuse to
instruct the jury to disregard it.
Fourth Evidence examined and
held that it was not error to refuse to
grant q motion by the defend ant for
Judgment Notwithstanding the ver-
dict.
We can account for the rulings Of
the court upon this occasion on no
other grounds than a failure to grasp
the full meaning and effect Of the.
language employed by the counsel. It
was error to permit the use Of such
language in court Of justice without
a reprimand, and to refuse to attempt
at least to remove the effect from the
minds OF the jury. For these reasons,
q new trial must be granted. - Brain

The Jury Couldn't Say.
The village authorities ar

The village authorities arrested
G. G. Blake last week for keep
ling o disorderly house, the Olympic
Concert Hall. He was heard befor,
Justice Gilmour, and plead not guilty
A change of venue was granted, ant
the case postponed to Monday. I
came up before Justice Anton Erick
son Monday afternoon. The defense
through it's attorneys, Chas. Scrutchir
and J. M. Marin, asked for jury trial
This was granted, and the following
were chosen: Messrs. Linberg, fore.
man, F. A. Brown, w. S. Powers, r.
McLennan, VIM. Rogers, w. Har.
mon, A. T. Wheelock, r. S. Coombs,
Ed Naylor, Iyer Erickson, Thompson
and Richards.
The defense had several of the vii.
lage officials and other prominentciti-
zens as their witnesses. This gave
the case a peculiar flavor, and the city
hall was crowded with spectators all
day Tuesday. The evidence seemed
pretty well balanced, for and against
the accused. The case went to the
jury about supper time. They wrestled
with each others opinion until after
midnight; it was then decided that no
agreement could be reached, and the
jury was discharged. The village at
torney says that new trial will be
begun soon.
The Jury seems to agree with public
opinion, that the proprietor of the
Olympic, even if guilty, should not be
made to suffer alone when report says
1 there are others" whose conduct is
equally questionable.

r. S. Coombs, Of Bemidji, is out
as a candidate for county commissions
er from the First District. We wish
him luck, and believe the people of
the whole county would be in luck
should he be elected. He does not be-
long to the white shirt gang" but is
q modest young man who has served
his time on the farm, in the workshop
and with pick and shovel. Naturally
his sympathies would be with the La
boring classes, and that is the kind OF
man pioneer county like this needs
to look after its interests. He is at
present village assessor of Bemidji.

THIS is PROSPERITY.

"A recent report from the bureau OF
statistics OF the treasury department
at Washington makes good campaign
literature in face Of the assertion
made by the gilt-edged liars that our
country has not prospered under the
Mckinley administration. The report
shows that, during the last fiscal year
which closed on June 30, the total
foreign commerce of the United States
exceeded by 1919, 729, $50 that Of any
preceding year and for the first time
in our history it exceeded two billion
dollars. The total export of our
manufacturers amounted to 1892, 2s4, :
$3.50 against 1889, 675s55s the preceding
year. There are thousand items to
point out our tremendous growth,
sure-enough prosperity and industrial
activity. The figures give that SUI
preme satisfaction to Uncle Sam as
comes to a tired bookkee per when af-
ter repeated struggles he makes his
ledger balance. But the brightest item
in the bunch shows that the total i'm
ports of merchandise last fiscal year
were sS49, 714,67o and exports were 81
394, 1851. They point out balance
of trade in our favor, the largest in
the history of our country.
The democrats sized up the tariff of
1897 and rose up in their wrath to say
that under that schedule our exports
of merchandise would fall off like q
lump OF GOODNESS from an ice wagon.
Bryan, the seer of finance and the
prophet Of calamity, often affirms that
we are in hopeless bondage Of debt to
Europe, that we will continue to be
humpback serfs to the creditor nations
of the earth. Their predictions are
being scorched and warped by the
rising sun of prosperity. We are
producing more than we consume and
what is more We are finding MARKET
outside for our surplus products. We
have established ourselves as a credit
itor nation, and Europe expects as to
loan her more money to-day in face
Of her need of increased ornaments.
The richest quality of greatness is
Energy. And that country is destined
o be rich and powerful, whose people
ire energetic and courageous. Uncle
Sam has snch children; children who
ever loaf, who plan as we'll as work.

1eir force of energy, and their plans
Or the future are never gagged by +,

Beans, Boomers and Ball.

| The Boston Bloomer Girls Base,
Ball Club appeared here as advertised
last Sunday. and made a very good
impression on Bemidji's people. They
came in their Private Hotel car, and
brought canvas along to enclose the
grounds. The ball grounds were not
in condition for good ball game, it
having rained during the forenoon.
Considering the condition OF the
grounds, and the fact that the home
team had not practiced any, the game
was pretty good one, the score be-
ing 15,to IA in favor Of the Bloomer
Girls.
The conduct OF the Bloomer Girls
was very ladylike, and when the game
was called played very quiet and
ladylike game. The nine was COM
posed Of ladies except man catcher
and Ed French, who held down first
base. The pitcher and second base
man OF the Boomers deserve special
mention. The work of the pitcher was,
something wonderful not only because
she was q woman, but her pitching
would have been a credit to any
pitcher. The batting and base-run-
ming OF the second baseman was ad-
mired by all. The part OF the game in
which the girls distinguished them
selves the most was in their base-run-
ming. They are all swift runners, and
it was this part OF their playing that
brought in the most runs.
The home nine played better than
had been expected, and the boys need
not be sore on account of having been
beaten by girls, because the girls who
beat them were uncommon ball play
ers. The batters for the home team
were Allen, Billie English, Tom Eng
lish and Oscar Skogsberg. It was the
most interesting game ever Witnessed
here.
