undisputed right to high praise. In

and they promise us another visit.

ARNE S0LBERG HAS HAD
EXPERIENCE AS DEPUTY
In His Candidacy for the ShrieveIty
Nomination, Mr.. SoIberg Receives
Much Encouragement.

In recent issue of the Spooner
Northern News, Editor Husse, of
that journal, relieves himself of the
following screed under the caption,
"One on the Pioneera Or One on Mr..
Solberg?" 49,. ....
In a recent issue of the Pioneer
we note an item proclaiming the
candidacy of Ernest Solberg for the
Office of sheriff of Beltrami county
for the coming election. In the
article Mr.. Solberg is credited with
very efficient "incumbrancy" of office
as deputy to Sheriff Bailey. Now,
that is just what has allied Beltrami
county in the past. There seems to
have been too much efficient in
cumbrancy" of office, although, as
rule such is kept dark when it comes
to election time. What the people
want and need is more efficient dis
charge of official duties and some of
the incumberancers are liable to
learn such fact about election time"
Whatever may be said of Mr..
Solberg's 'incumbrancy," nothing
can be said of his ability as an
officer.
The writer has been on several
arduous trips with Arne Solberg
while the latter was working as
deputy sheriff, and we know whereof
we speak, when we say that he has
made a good officer. He has travel
ed in all kinds of weather, both
team and afoot, in serving papers
and chasing criminals. Being a
man who is absolutely fearless, Mr..
Solberg makes an excellent officer.
Mr.. Solberg has filed for the re-
publican nomination for sheriff, and
it is to his advantage that he has
served as deputy sheriff for the
past two years and has become
thoroughly familiar with the work
ings of the sheriff's office. -.
Mr.. Solberg is making clean
campaign, and any attempt of Husse
or his News to throw any slurs in
Mr.. Solberg's direction will but
strengthen the latter with voters of
Beltrami county.

Grand Rapids, Mimi, August Is.
Mrs. George Cochran, II years
of age, was found in a pool of
her own blood at 1 o'clock this
Sunday morning in the front
yard of her residence by Ben and
Mike Lieberman.
The two men were walking home
and heard faint cries. They ran to
the spot and found the aged woman
fearfully cut and slashed about the
head, neck and body. She was
feebly struggling to arise, every
movement causing the blood to
squirt in jets from her many wounds.
The men picked her up and
before they could put a question to
her she died in their arms.
They Immediately investigated
the house and premises and found
evidences of a bitter struggle for
life. The furniture was disarranged,
the stove torn down, the chairs
broken, the curtains pulled from
their fastenings, and many loose
articles on the floor.
So desperate was the fight for life
that some of the woman's clothes
were torn from her body and there

blood. ~. E.~
The crime was the most atrocious
in the history of Itasca county.
Weak, because of her age, the
woman was overpowered, beaten
down and viciously cut and slashed
with sharp instrument, probably a
razor.
Sheriff Hoolihan was Immediately
notified and he went at once to the
scene. He was unable to obtain
any clue that might lead to the
Identification of the murderer or
murderers. He will procure blood
hounds today and they will be given
the scent.
Mrs. Cochran lived alone. She
had no money in any great amount
in her house, and the officers do not
believe robbery melted the deed.
She was not surprised by the
person or persons who killed her for

supernatural when her weakened
condition is considered.
Mrs. Cochran's husband is cook
and lives in Hibbing. She has a
daughter, Mrs. Lee Gates, wife of a
local ice dealer.

IN GREENWOOD CEMETERY
Helen Esther Reynolds, Infant Daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. H. Reynolds, Is

laid to rest, Saturday afternoon,
in Greenwood cemetery, Bemidji's
City of the Dead -. g. 4
Z The funeral services were con.
Quoted at the Reynolds home, Rev.
S. E. P. White officiating. Rev.
White spoke briefly on the words of
the Savior, Suffer Little Children
to Come Unto Me, and Forbid Them
Not, for of Such Is the Kingdom OF
Heaven;" and commended the be-
reaved parents to an appeal to God
for comfort in their great loss-the
death of their only child.
The floral offerings were both
numerous and beautiful, the little
casket being almost buried in the
wreaths. E.~
A quartette rendered some selec
tons, and the pallbearers consisted
or four little girls who had known
Baby Reynolds in her lifetime.
Thus over a happy home the
shadow of little grave has fallen;
and, as another has said, it is won
derful how long a shadow a little
grave can throw.
This beautiful baby's life was sc
precious. so fraught with blessing
to her parents that she seemed {

side, then recalled to its nature
skies, leaving the earth road fo1
them dark and lonely indeed.
