It WON'T Be UNANIMOUS
FOR THWING IN ITAscA
The Home County Of the Judicial AS
pirant Has Not All Been
r. ''Thwing-ed."

3. OF late the newspapers, which are
supporting Mr.. Thwing for the
republican nomination for judge of
the Fifteenth Judicial district, have
been literally quoting the following,
taken from the Grand Rapids Herald
Review: 5
One of the qualities needed by a
judge is a fitness by education and
training and experience to grasp the
details of the subject under consid-
Grafton before him and grasp them
quickly. It stands to reason that if
a lawyer has been in the thick of
the fight, dealing with and solving
daily many intricate problems of
various kinds, his mind will be alert,
his judgement will be active and his
energy will make itself manifest. In
Mr.. Thwing we have such a lawyer,
whose services have made him valu-
able to his clients. Altho he is
young, yet his experience along many
lines and his activity peculiarly fits
him for the duties of the office to
which he aspires." +
Last week, the Grand Rapids
Independent answered the above as
follows:
Exactly! we cheerfully admit
that judge need the quality men
toned by our contemporary. We
also cheerfully admit its detection
that a lawyer who has been in the
thick of the fight and has daily
solved many intricate problems will
naturally be, of alert mind, active
judgement and manifest energy.
But with its conclusion that Mr..
Thwing is such a lawyer the plainly
apparent facts of the case compel US
to differ. And we would be greatly
Obliged to our neighbor, or to any
else who can do so, for the citing of
any legal case of importance in
which Mr.. Thwing has been engaged
since his entry into the Itasca
county bar in which he showed the
"fitness-by which we understood
ability-to grasp the details on the
subject under consideration before
him, either quickly or otherwise.
Also we would be pleased to be
shown what "manyintricate problems
of various kinds, dealt with and
solved daily" or even one such
Mr.. Thwing has met up with and
vanquished since he has been in
the thick. of the fight" in this county.
Please show u.s."
It is very evident that Itasca
is by no means unanimous for Mr..
Thwing.

TOURISTS FIND. PLEASURE
MAKING TRIPS ON RIVER
Several Parties Have Lately Made a
Trip Down Mississippi to Cass
Lake in Seven Hours.

"A trip down the Mississippi river
in a canoe is becoming very popular
with the summer residents on the
shores of Lake Bemidjl.
Howard Booker and Bert Selby of
Grand Forks, N. d., arrived in the
city Saturday afternoon from Bena
where they had gone in a canoe by
floating down the Mississippi river.
The two boys started from here last
zMo1day afternoon and ent leisureiy
down the stream, camping nights
along the banks of the river. They
reached Bena Saturday morning and
returned to the city on the afternoon
train.
Ray Holmes, N..Currie and Young
Williams of Grand Forks, who are
spending the summer at Lakeside,
left Lake Bemidji Thursday and
went down as far as Cass Lake,
camping on the way. They had a
very enjoyable time and returned to
the city Saturday afternoon.
Professor Kennedy, of the Uni
versity of North Dakota, and his
son, James, left Grand Forks Bay
Saturday morning at 7:O6 and
padded down the " Father of
Waters" reaching the Cass Lake
boat-house at 1:56 in the afternoon
and thus making the trip in six hours
and fifty minutes. This record is
forty minutes faster than any prev
ious trip made by any residents Of
this summer resort, the last record
trip being made in seven and one
half hours by Frank Street and
Byron Wilson of Royalton and Bob
=. !. 10 =
and Edgar Stewart Of Webb City,
Mo-, who were spending few
months in Bemidji, about four weeks
ago.
Those who have made the down
river trip by canoe have gotten
along nicely, but several who have
gone down by rowboat have not
been so fortunate. There are several
rapids in the river, where there are
piles Of big rocks and the deep row.
boats had to be pulled across the
rocks, necessitating the occupants Of
the boats getting out into the water
and pulling their craft along.

But those who went to scoff re-
manned to praise. The little girl who
in the old days had never been known
to sing, save as all children sing
showed herself possessed last night
of magnificent voice. She showed
too. that in the years spent abroad
she has worked most assiduously un-
der the masters with whom she has
studied, and that she has learned all
they have to teach.
AS a concert singer possibly she
might not be success. Her first
songs last night failed to stir the aud
X ence. But when she came to the Ger
man song cycle, ''Schon Gretlein," the
love story in seven songs of Ger
man maiden, and later IN the aria,
'Lieti Signor," from the great French
opera, Les Hugenots." she showed
herself possessed of really splendid
ability as a dramatic soprano. With
her beautifully modulated voice, her
natural gift as an actress. her magni-
ficent presence, she swayed all who
heard her, and applause was spontan-
'eous and long-continued. Those who
had come to scoff We're convinced that
Grand Junction has given to the grand
