LOOKS DOWN ON DULUTH

The city Of Duluth is getting
it's share of criticism these days
since it was made public that
good food, that would have been
gladly taken by many poor fam
lilies in that village or could have
been sold at a moderate price to
a number Of Duluth people, has
been fed to the incinerator. This
is about the worst we have heard
Of for some time, and we wonder
how these fellows think they are
helping win the war. "Save the
waste and win the war" don't
seem to be their motto. No won
der we want the county divided.

Duluth under the present condi-
tions.-The Gilbert Herald.

Bull Advertiser. "Those who
fail to buy a bond will be re-
garded as German sympathizers.

there is a general opinion that,
in many cases, men are hard up
and do not want to advertise the
fact that it is none Of any one s
business what the reasons are for
not buying a bond. 1t takes the

TALES OF THE TOWN

Once upon a time, a Yankee
visitor in Ft. Frances saw a thea
trical man strenuously engaged
in trying to get fifteen big trunks
through the customs at Interna-
tional Falls.
"What's your rush?" asked
the visitor Of the Thespians.

and vigorous reply.

JUST A MOMENT.

BY REV. w. Il. ELLIS.
An old man, going a lone highway,
Came at the evening, cold and gray,
To a chasm vast and deep and wide
The old man crossed in the twilight
dim;
The sullen stream had no fear for
him;
But he turned when safe on the other
side,
And built bridge to span the tide.
"Old man." said fellow Pilgrim
near,
"You are wasting your strength with
building here:
Your journey will end with the end
ing day;
You will never again pass this way;
You've crossed the chasm deep and
wide;
Why build you this bridge at even
ing tide?"
The builder lifted his old grey head:
"Good friend. in the path I've come"
he said.
There followeth after me today,
A youth whose feet must pass this
way;
This chasm that has been as naught
to me,
To that fair-haired youth may a pit
fall be:
He, too, must cross in the twilight
dim
Good friend, I'm bu,lcing this bridge
-''..f for himi" -r..' .-.. w. =. 49,.

SELF CHOSEN JUDGES.

sociates have decreed that unless
a person gives an excuse satisfac-
tory to the Real Patriots as to
why he cannot buy a liberty

loyal and a traitor" says Ran
som Metcalfe in The Steel Plant
News. "Would the excuse that
the h. c. Of |. caused by the

VALUE OF WATCHFULNESS.

Acting more or less on the
suggestion of the Rip-saw, a
goodly number of citizens at
tended the regular meeting of the
school board last week. All
available room was occupied,
some of the citizen visitors even
being compelled to stand in the
corners. .
That was as every meeting
should be. A liberal attendance
Of representative citizens is an
incentive, even an inspiration, to
some members of the school
board and a brake, or even a
corrective, to other members.
The schools belong to the peo-
pie. They pay the bills and
furnish the material for pupils.
The work done on that material
by the teachers is of the utmost
interest. The members of the
school board are the chosen serv-
ants of the people. These chosen
servants never should attempt to
become masters.

shouted the temperamental Thes-
plan.
There is county attorney in
Northern Minnesota with whose
county and county commission
ers P. Mcdonnell has had heavy
business in road contracts. The
two were on the train recently
when the lawyer received three
pennies in change on the chair
car. Showing the coppers to
Paddy, the limb of the law said:
81 always save the pennies 1
get for my young boy who puts
them in his little bank"
"That's a fine idea," replied
Mr.. Mcdonnell. "Take these and
put them with yours for the
boy"
Suiting his action to his words,
the big hearted contractor threw
four coppers into the attorneys
hand.
After keeping the four pennies
fully an hour the lawyer came
back to the county contractor
and said:
GIVE been thinking the mat
ter over, Paddy, and I do not
think it best for me to keep
these pennies. l wish to return
them. Here they are.'
Mr.. Mcdonnell now is trying
to figure out whether that law
yer would have been a joyous
find for old Diogenes or if he is
merely fit subject for the fool
killer

Bates and l are at Casper, Wyo., for
the time being but still claim Du-
luth as our residence"
FRED M. BAKER, son of ]. H.
Baker of this city, went to work for
the Adams Express Co. in Duluth
before that corporation had fully
launched it's business in Duluth.
After several years service, he went
to St. Paul as cashier. He had
charge of the company's office on
the grounds of the Chicago EXPOSE
ton in 1898. Later he resided in
Omaha and filled many positions
with the Adams people. After 20
years service, Mr.. Baker now makes

P. E. BOWLING owned drug store
at Tower 25 years ago. Later, he went
to Eveleth where he had drug store,

being elected to the state legislature.
Coming to Duluth, Mr.. Bowling terror
lied the Hidden Hands and Inner Cir
cles by attacking the Commercial Club
and organizing the Greater Duluth Club.
He then ran for mayor W hen the COM
mission form of government took eff
feet but failed of election. After that,
Mr.. Dowling's health broke down, bust
ness reverses followed and he moved
to st. Paul. His health has greatly i'm
proved in recent months and he now
is engaged in the contracting business
with his brother in the Sanity City.
w. G.. BONHAM lived in Tower and
was member of the board of county
commissioners when it was decided not
to accept $4,000 worth of the d. NJ.
& N. Ry. stock in October, 1893, be-
cause of liability that might attach
to st. Louis county if the railway went
into bankruptcy. Later, Mr.. Bonham
was judge of probate for some years,
with great satisfaction to the citizens
of the county and credit to himself.
When his tenure of office ended, he
opened law office in Duluth. About
two years ago, Judge Bonham went to
New Jersey and purchased a farm
where he ivled when boy. He quietly
moved back there and it wa smany
months before large number of his
friends and admirers knew he had for

nursing rather poor health with an
automobile until recently, when the

sheriff for st. Louis county for some
years. Then he conducted a cigar
store in this city and, also, a hotel

Let not the people grow weary
in this attendance at the school
board meetings. Let them plan
a representative and systematic
attendance from all parts of the
city. Nothing but mutual good
can come from it.
Incidentally, still other citizens
should attend the meetings Of the
city commissioners. A strong,
steady, certain attendance of tax
payers will serve as a balance
wheel to the city machinery in
the grinding out Of public bust
ness.
When the plain, common peo-
pie go to sleep, cunning trick
sters are more apt and able to
steal away their rights. Eternal
vigilance by the people is the
price Of efficiency, faithfulness
and a full measure Of service on
the part of public servants.
