A MEAN subject never yet inter:
ested manly man.
EDITOR QUINN, of the Cloquet In
dependent, is ready to quit and offers
his plant and business for sale.
A WOMAN may not be able to drive
a horse or nail, but when it comes
to driving bargain she is right
there.
VIRGINIA needs more houses for
rental purposes. The lack of home
accommodations is keeping many
families from moving to the city.
The margarine section" of some
of our exchanges helps wonderfully
in making the common people think
they are getting something for their
money.
IF you have not paid your per-
sonal property tax you had better
get move on. The sheriff is not
welcome visitor when>out on a col.
lecting tour.
! STRONG men are wanted from this
district in the next. legislature.
And every man who works or votes
for P. r. Vail for the senate seeks
the election of a man who will be a
power in that body.
AND while the professional poll
tician makes wry face at the can
didacy of Senator Hawkins for the
lieutenant governorship the de-
mands of the voters are so strong
that they command respect.
A MAN who crawled under the Re-
publican canvas for the paltry sum
of $500 could gain more respect
among those acquainted with the
facts by laying low for time in
stead of aspiring to lead and dictate
to the party of whose principles he
is purchased exponent.
| CONGRESS considers a new natu-
radiation law which will require an
alien to write either his own or the
English language, and to speak and
read English, and to declare his in
tention to reside permanently in the
United States before he can become
a citizen OF the United States.
DULUTH realty threatens to rival
Virginia. In this city one owner of
Chestnut street property has refused
an offer of practically $500 per foot
frontage, while in the Zenith City
the owners of the proposed court
house site have signified their will:
lngness to accept of similar figure.
IT is tacitly understood that Hon.
John Saari will become candidate
for reelection to the house, though
he has made no formal announce
ment of his candidacy yet. Mr..
Saari is man of unquestioned hon
or, and his ability as legislator
was fully exemplified at the last
session.
The string fiend of the News Trib-
'une who sent in the news of the
"threatened lynching" of the sus-
poets arrested in this city Sunday
for the murder at Aurora has missed
his calling. He should make appli-
cation for a steady "sit" on the Pc.
lice Gazette or hire out to drive a
scavenger wagon. 49,, 49,.
THE space in the columnszof The
Enterprise belongs to our readers,
and we believe we can fill our col
umns with matter of greater inter
est to them than to deliver disserta-
tons upon cur dogs or a pair of
rimless 90. pug" will there
fore excuse us for any seeming
lack of appreciation of his efforts to
have us keep him before the public.
FIRST thing Bro. :Perham knows
the. Associate Editor will meet him
in dark alley some evening and
basic him with a stocking full of
the stuff he has been serving read
ers for some weeks past. And the
meandering pole-cat will take the
other side of the street for thirty
days thereafter. Should be more
circumspect in Your remarks. Bro
