LOUIS R. HElBING.
Candidate for Republican Nomtna-
tion. of County Commissioners.

Candidate for Republican NOmtna-
ton of County Commissioner
Louis r. Helbing, candidate for Re-
publication nomination for county COM
missioner in the Second district, is an
old resident of Duluth. He has always
been a consistent and earnest worker
in the Republican party, and has never
sought an elective office before. Mr..
Helbing is now engaged in the sheet
metal business and has now built up
quite an, extensive and, successful es-
tablishment. When Mr. Helbing was
journeyman timer he was an active
member Of the Timers Union, and was
at one time delegate to the Trade and
Labor Assembly Of Duluth: During
Governor Clough's administration ne
was a. deputy game warden, and dis
charged the duties OF his office with
much satisfaction. If he is nominated
and elected to the office which he seeks
he will endeavor to conduct the bust
ness Of the board Of county commits
sioners in an able and business-like
manner. He believes that one should
serve the public with the same fidelity
and clear business tact that he would
his own private business. There is
much work to be done on the county
board, such as ordering the improve
ment of roads, the fixing of assessed
valuations on property, and the con-
trolling of other county offices. This
requires men Of judgment and business
tact, and Mr.. Helbing has given evil
dence Of being a proper person for such
an office. If you vote for him you will
never regret it.

WANTS HOME RULE.

From the Conneaut Evening News:
1t matters little to Conneaut whether
the dividing line between the cities and
villages of Ohio under the new code
law is placed at 5000, 10000, or $4,000
population. What the people Of the
village and cities want most under the
new law is home rule in it's broadcast
sense, civil service in all appointive Of
fees, and the election by the people
Of every executive officer. OF these
home rule is the most vital. The people
Of each Municipality should decide the
choice OF all officers, the question Of it's
bonded Indebtedness, and every other
question relating to their own govern
ment. Give US a. simple, general law.
Mr.. Legislature. with the largest pos
sible measure of home rule and We'll
try to be happy. -.

THE GALL OF A MAN.
From the Shanghai Mercury:

From the Shanghai Mercury:
The Chinese lay stress on the amount
OF gall a man has and not on tne
amount of :41eart. Thus we read OF dou
King, who was governor Of Honan IN
the sixth century, that he once cap.
tured a rebel named Ii Cheb, brought
him into the market, chopped off his
hands and his feet, ripped up his heart
and his belly and cut out his v1tals'
The victim, however, continued to JEST
with his features undistorted, and his
countenance unchanged. His gall blad-
der was then seen to have the capacity
OF a pint measure, which completely
accounted for his stoicism. In l64o'
when the armies of the Manchus were
gradually overrunning China, one WI
Han Chao made head against them In
Anhui. But he finally fell into their
hands. The historian records that his
gall was three inches long.

G. M. BURNETT.
One of the Leading Candidates for Nomil
Sheriff on Republican Ticket.

The accompanying picture is Of c. M.
Burnett, whose announcement as can
didate for the Republican nomination
for sheriff Of st. Louis county recently
created a. great deal Of interest in po-
litical circles. There is no candidate
for any office in the gift Of the people
this fall who has more enthusiastic
company Of friends, and from the mo-
ment he became an avowed candidate
for sheriff he has been recognized as
one Of the leaders in the field. The re-
mark is heard daily that the "Nomin-
alton for sheriff lies between Mr.. Bur-
nett and" so and so, according to the
estimate Of the speaker. It is a nota-
bic and significant fact that Mr.. Bur.
nett is considered by so many well in
formed men as one Of the top notchers
and that his name should always be
coupled with one other when estimat-
ing is done.
\ Mr.. Burnett is a native Of New York
state and came to Duluth ten years ago
to take the position Of roadmaster Of
the Duluth, Missabe & Northern, which
position he has held ever since, with
credit to himself in every way. He has
been lifelong Republican and an ar
dent worker in the interests Of that
party. Not an office holder in St.
Louis county but is indebted to him
for valuable and timely personal as
sistance. Mr.. Burnett has been a DEL
egate to state, congressional and num-
cipal Republican conventions since he
removed to Duluth. He was prominent
in Republican politics in Iowa before
coming to Duluth, and now for the first
time asks for something at the hands
Of his party. Mr.. Burnett is without
question one Of the most popular men
with his subordinates of any railroad
man in the state. He is man OF de-
cision, kindly disposition, good Judge
of men, and his sterling integrity is
manifest to all who have had the pleas
ure of meeting him. Mr.. Burnett is
making clean campaign and says
that if he wins he wishes to do so on
his merit and ability only. He will have
a strong range support, and from pre-
sent prospects will get heavy vote in
Duluth. He is man who inspires con-

 Recover Penalty Under Law.


 Recover Penalty Under Law.
 Hartford, April 17.-Because the Baltic Mills company of Baltic adver- tised in England for help and ob- tained three hands, it is possible that it may have to pay $3,000 to the United States government. Papers in an ac- tion to this effect were filed in the of flee of the clerk of the United States court yesterday. The complaint is drawn up for the government by Unit ed States District Attorney Francis H. Parker. It sets forth that on De- tober 4, 1901, the Baltic Mills com pany advertised in the Cotton Fac tory Times" of Manchester, England, that it wanted first class weavers on fine combed work. The weavers were to come to "one of the most beautiful villages in Connecticut" Wages of old Hargraves, Eliza Hargraves and Henry Billings came to Baltic in De cember last. The government claims that these three people were hired in England and brought over here The penalty for doing this is a fine on the firm of $1,000 for each person so brought into the country. The sum- mons in the case is returnable on the fourth Tuesday of May.

GERMAN ARMY MANOEUVRES

Frankfort-on-Oder, Sept. 10. - The
manoeuvres began soon after dawn this
morning. The two armies (the imperi-
nj. and the theoretical enemy supposed
to be the Russians) yesterday stood over
night facing each other. Each army
will today employ the tactics used by the
Beers in the South African war, and
will attempt to keep under cover as
much as possible. They will be extend
ed over the entire width Of the ma
noeuvre field, distance Of 40 miles, in
order to prevent ambuscades. Both
sides will use balloons to great extent
which will be equipped with wireless tel
egrap hy and which will mount to an
altitude of half a mile, from whence the
manoeuvres can be readily directed. The
army corps about Frankfort, which are
defending Germany against Russia, are
known as the Blues, and the invaders,
who started from Posen, are called the
Reds.
The manoeuvres began at O'Clock and
ended at $50. The Blue army in at
tempting to turn the right wing OF the
enemy from the north was, during
the march, vigorously attacked on the
left flank and beaten by the Red army.
After short fight the Kaiser ordered a
cessation of hostilties. 1t is rumored
he will tomorrow command the Blue, or
imperial forces. The American and
English generals accompanied the
Kaiser today.
