Only ten more weeks of school.
The high school track team has
started training for the spring sports.
Tom Harri has been elected captain
and manager Of the team and the
boys were called out last Friday.
About twenty candidates answered
the call and there seems an abundance
of material for good team. On &C
count of the weather the boys have
not been able to get to work out doors,
but expect TO get out in few weeks
for regular work. In the meantime
they are lmbering up in the auditor

bells. Mr.. Jenkins is trying TO de-
veiop some good distance men, and In
Byron Carlson, Clarence Williams and
few others he has good opportunity.

to give any team on the range tus.

following named persons are among
the Stockholders, land owners and

Axel Lingren, John Eckholm, Charles
Wickstrom. Alfred Nelson, August

Axel G.. Olson and Gust Nelson. These
parties together own some over two
sections of land in Cook county. A
large number Of these parties are the
original ratentees of the land and
the majority Of them have great faith
in the country as prospective iron
producer. Good surface indications
prevail, and men whose opinions are
considered authority in matters Of
that kind claim that the prospects for
iron ore in large and paying quanti-
ties are excellent on some of these
lands. The primary object of this In
corporation is that all Of these par
ties join interests, and further that
they take the necessary steps to thor.
oughly explore their lands. Each IN

no inflated or watered stock In this
concern; every one will be able to join
on equal footing; no promoters stock

BRYAN AND THE DENVER
PLATFORM.
CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS.

The democrats are saying that
the republicans did not take ad-
vanced ground enough in the tram
ing of their platform. They criti-
else the republicans for not incOrpo-
rating plank of publicity of cam
paign contributions. You would in
fer that the democratic party had
always stood for political upright
ness, but in the midst of this comes
the remarks of Col. Henry Waiter
SON, thrown off in the heat Of the
campaign against Judge Parker, the
party's last candidate. To read and
ponder over the colonels remarks
IS to get a new sidelight on democ-
racy not wholly edifying.
1T was the Belmont-Ryan mon
ey." asserts the colonel, that
financed Judge Parker's campaign
for the nomination in 1904. 1t was
the Belmont-Ryan money that nom
mated him, and 1t was the Ryan
Belmont tag that made. an anti.
trust government under such a
brand absurd and impossible"
II what the colonel says is true,
democracy is not without its faint
OF being swayed by corrupt influ-
ences and cannot lead reform
along these lines without being
open to conviction for pretense. In
this same connection comes with
even more force the allegations
made by Guffey against Candidate
Bryan, who, he charges. was will
4ng. In his former campaigns. tn
take freely of the tainted money
without question and is even now
fawning on Hearst who, as a dis
tributor Of funds. is needed sorely
In the present campaign. Demo-
cratic righteousness as laid bare by
Watterson and Guffey is not a good
substratum to build a lofty temple
upon dedicated to democracy and
reform.

the Coe"r d'Alene country will be
delivered IN 10 hours. The company
can also offer a quicker delivery
into all Canadian points. which is
expected to secure heavy fruit
