Otter Tail would perhaps get his
share, on the score OF sheer
merit.
Stevenson is by all odds the
most dangerous man IN q cam am. !.
paign of that character, as he is a
full-voiced orator, OF brain ca
pacity and power to go up against
any proposition, but his popular
ity Of late years has been mainly
confined to jury duty and
speeches for other men. And it
is said that his avenging Nemesis,
"A. ID. Stephens, who beat him SO
badly for mayor Of Crookston
two years ago, is credited with q
consuming desire to have a go
at him for votes in Polk county,
as a test Of their personal
strength. And Stephens Is not
slow.
Valentine is no slotch Of q cam
paigner, and he and Comstock
both have the benefit of the
friendship Of the Great Northern
railway to help them along.
There is every probability that
one Of these two will withdraw
from the race in the interest Of
the other.
If all Eve of these men, how
ever, go into the fight, the candi-
date Of Beltrami county will not
be third or fourth in the count up.

The Game Law.

Under the game laws it is legal
to kill prairie chickens on Sept. 1,
but quails, pheasants and ducks
cannot be shot until Oct. i.
Hunters should bear this in mind.
because the law will be enforced
as strictly as possible and no favor
will be shown anyone. Under the
law ducks and pheasants are not
marketable and must not be sold.
All wild fowls are said to be
abundant, and quail especially.
which comparatively recently
have come to this section are seen
in large numbers.

The pioneers Of jamestown,
Va, adopted one plan which this
county might well follow. They
shipped in a cargo Of females to
be manufactured into wives for
the bachelor contingent Of that
colony. In Bemidji the lack Of
hired girls is istressingly felt,
and there are thousands Of shacks
throughout the woods that need
the touch of a woman's hand.

Why don't the Duluth papers
put in a little time praising the
country in Northern Itasca
county, SO that region would be
filed with farmers, instead Of
bowling so much against the
national park? Duluth's schem-
ers care more for a Whack at the
Indians pine than they do for
trade territory.

It is stated at the Indian Office that
Mr.. Parr, superintendent of logging,
has effected compromise with the
lumber operators who purchased tim

During the past 10 years the
increase Of population IN Canada
has been about9 per cent, ccord-

chief industry Of Canada is the
expectation Of its sons to this
side of the line.

DECISION REGARDING FILINGS.

COMMISSIONER HERMAN
~ of the general land Office OF
the United States has issued q
decision which is to the effect
that filings for land before United
States court commissioners must
be made in the county in which
the land to be fled on is located.
The ruling is said to beasurprise
to the land offices Of the country,
as hundreds of such filings not so
made have been allowed in the
past. The PIONEER wrote to-
Judge Ives Of 'Cass Lake, whose
Judgment, based upon years Of
experience, as Judge and commits
sioner we considered valuable,
and have received the following
opinion upon this decision:
CAss LAKE, Aug. 8, 1901.
"a. vi. Greeley, ESQ.
Dear SirI am in receipt Of
your favor of the 4th inst. rela-
tive to the ruling Of the United
States commissioner in the Olson
case. I am at loss to fathom
the necessity of making such q
ruling and havelaid my bjections,
with reasons for them before the
commissioner, and he has prom
ised to give the matter his early
attention. The commissioner in
his ruling has attempted to group
the acts Of United States COM
missioners with judges and
clerks Of the courts, which IN my
opinion is not correct; a United
States commissioner is an officer
of general jurisdiction through
out the district in which he lives,
the law regulating the admins
tration Of oaths in the initiation
of homestead claims is not OBJ
scure nor is it ambiguous; it pro-
vides thatwhere the homesteader
resides a long distance from the
local office, etc, the affidavit may
be made before the judge Of any
court Of record or before the
clerk thereof, within the county
where the land is situate, and
before any commissioner Of the
United States court having jufis-
diction over the county or parish
where the land is situated. The
only question in the case is, has
a United States commissioner
jurisdiction over every county in
the district where he resides?
In judicial matters there is no
question about his Jurisdiction,
he may administer oaths and
certify afidavits to be used in.
any county in his district and no
question will be raised as to his
authority to do so. Is his au-
thority In matters pertaining to
the initiation of land claims re-
stricted by the statute Of May 26,
1890? We do not think it is and
are firmly of the opinion that the
acts of United States commits
sioners in the initiation of land
claims in counties outside of the
county where he resides is lawful,
and that the order of the commits
sioner if appealed from must be
reversed. Any other ruling

THE PRIMARY ELECTION LAW.

TT is not generally known by the
j people Of Minnesota that the
general primary election law
passed by the last Legislature is
a sweeping measure in it's meth
DDS. Under it's provisions both
parties choose their candidates
on the same day and at the same
polls, democrats presumably vot-
ing the democratic ticket, and re-
publicans the republican ticket,
both of which are SO designated
in printon the backs Of the same.
The law applies to all local and
district elections, except village
and school and township cleo
tions. 1T includes elections for
judges and for congressman.
In the matter of it's results on
the congressional situation in
the new Ninth district it will
seriously complicate well laid
plans, and may sidetrack one or
two candidates who had consid-
cred themselves as good as nom
mated. The primary election
law really makes the campaign
take place before the nominations
are made, and leaves any man a
free agent to enter the race and
make an old fashioned fight for
the endorsement of his party
people.
In the new Ninth district, SEN.
ator Grindeland has heretofore
been regarded as the sure win
ner, but with Ezra Valentine, S.
G. Comstock, Halvor Stevenson
and w. f. Street in the field, all
of them good campaigners from
the sense of oratory, the Mar
shall county senator will have no
WalkaWay. He may not even
carry his own corner OF the dis
trict overwhelmingly, though
Albert Berg will support him IN
return for his abdication Of the.
senatorship, Of which Albert is
DESTROYS. He can be made to
carry Norman county through
the exertions of Senator Myran,
but in Polk he would have to
fight hard for a fair division with
Stevenson.
In Clay and Becker he would
be helpless against Valentine.
Otter Tail would be the battle
ground for all the candidates.,
while Beltrami would undoubt-
eddy throw its solid support to
Street, and Red Lake would give
him a large vote, as he was largely
instrumental in securing that
county it's separate county organ
ization. What he would get in
Polk would be limited to the
Thirteen Towns, where he is
favorably known. In Becker he
would look for scant courtesy.
In Norman he would receive
some votes, in Clay some, and in

EDITOR TRIBUNE:


The miners of this place read
your article on the scrip system
in vogue in the camps operated
by the Fuel company in this dis
trict, and we admire the stand
your paper took.
Yes, the coal mines are dissatis-
fed with the scrip system and an
effort will be made in the next few
weeks to annihiate the system
when a com mittee from the United
Mine Workers. union will be ap.
pointed to confer with the com
pany's officials and to demand
that the system be abolished. We
believe that we are free Americans
and are entitled to the privileges
of such. Therefore we believe that
such money(?) system should
no longer be kept in vogue. We
are further going to demand that
the company pay it's employees
here semi monthly as per law
adopted at the session of the last
legislature. This has been inaug-
urated in Boulder, Ell Paso and
La Plata.
This is matter that the Flor
ence business men should con-
slider and should lend at least
their moral support in our efforts
If the scrip system could be
knocked out these merchants would
be benefited as now we deal at the
Colorado Supply company's store,
buying the goods with scrip. II
we did not have scrip and received
our pay semi-monthly, we could
deal in Florence where we could
save money on our purchases.
Any aid that THE TRIBUNE can
lend in our efforts will be ap-
preciated.

THE work of building house
over the Shamrock III, the yacht
which Sir Thomas Upton brought
over to challenge for the American
cup this year, is well under way.
The yacht is now in dry dock in
Erie Basin and there is a general
opinion among expert mechanics
of the yard that the boat never will
be launched again. Dozens of the
rivets have pulled right through
the thin skin of bronze and in
many other places the plates show
signs of starting. Many of the
braces running from the bilges to
the deck are found to be badly
bent and the bronze plates also are
corroded to such an extent as ser
iously to impair the sea worthiness
of the yacht. In general the opin.
ion is expressed that the challenger
will be broken up and sold for
junk; also that England has quite
distance yet to go before she can
equal America in the matter OF
yacht building.
