schools are far superior to those in
Egypt. Nearly all Duluthians knew
that before the boss Of the school

The republican clans seem to
have laid aside their feuds and

that has helped the governors

About six years ago, Senator
Adams declared that, the Rip-saw
would not last long. II has lasted
for six years and Is bigger, better
and more powerful than ever be-
fore. Not having long, white whisk-
ers, Sen. Adams makes bum

Colonel Walker, former prime
minister under Kong Odin, but now
a delicate piece Of furniture in
Engineer Acton's office, seems to
be singing rather low of late. The
furnace-fixing days will return #

patience.
The Rip-saw stood ready to make
q telling cempaign In behalf of
Julius H. Barnes for q. 8. senator,
but neither the daily papers nor
the prominent citizens took up his
cause, so what use was there for
the Great Family Journal to tackle
the task all alone?
John w. Maggie, would-bs Tom
@. Plat of Duluth, and Odin
Halden, deposed monarch Of the
marble-hned courthouse. are not
on the firing fine as much az they
might be in this senatorial fight.

Some sad day, some prominent
citizen will get ruptured or other
wise injured in those toll gate
contraptions on the Aerial bridge
line of street cars, after which the
patrons will riot wildly and yank
out the clumsy, inconvenient and
even dangerous contraptions.
II progressive wishes to be
viewed with suspicion or even lose

One Saturday night, just q few
weeks ago, Odin Halden was pull
ing political wires in room 200
at the Spalding hotel. He used

along his spidery spinning of the

KEEP IN TOUCH WITH
THE OLD HOME TOWN

A copy of this issue of the
Telegraph is being mailed to a
member of each family repre-
sented at the Home Coming in
this city Sunday. Numbers of
those attending have been con-
slant readers of the paper for
years, but there are others not
receiving the publication whom
we are sure would enjoy it.
The Annual Home Coming
idea is a good one ali ! interest
in this event should increase
from year to year until great
army of Washington's sons and
daughters, now living in all
parts of the country come back
parts of the country, come back
to the Old Home Town once
each year to mix and mingle
with friends of their childhood
and visit spots held sacred in
their memory.
May we suggest that these
events will mean more to you
if the Telegraph serves as your
weekly messenger throughout
the year. Let us think of our
selves as one big family and
keep in touch with each other
through these columns, open to
you at any and all times.

from one dollar to eighty cents, the In
