The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1926-06-11

The story of the life of Hugh j.
McClearn, Duluth attorney who is a
candidate for the Republican NOM
lnation for Congressman from the
Eighth district of Minnesota, is in
brief, story of ambition, of de-
termination, of obstacles overcome
by hard work and perseverance; it
is a story of courage and high
ideals, and of service to his COM
munity and to his fellowmen. Mr..
McClearn is known as an aggressive
fighter, but always on the side of
right and justice. He has made "a
success of his own life and his own
business, and by education and
training he is well qualified to dis
charge the duties of the office to
which he seeks election.
Of Scotch parentage, Mr.. Nc
Clearn was born in Glasgow. With
his sister he came to the United
States at the age of eight, a poor
immigrant boy, and since that time
he has made his own way in the
world. At Is he had learned the
-four milling trade and was working
l3 hours a day. While learning his
trade he had attended school part
time, and now desired to continue
his studies.
Being ambitious, young McClearn
soon discovered that he did not have
the necessary education to under
take the things that he wished to
accomplish. He determined to Sc
cure that education. At the age of
rs he entered State Normal School
in Northern Indiana, which he at
tended four years, being graduated
as president of the senior class or
ganization, with the degree of A. B.
Following his graduation from the
normal school, McClearn taught
school in North Dakota for two
years to earn money to continue his
education. At the age of rs he en-
tered the University of Minnesota,
where he took a years academic
work and then studied law for
three years At the university he
made an enviable record and was
again graduated as president of his
class, ana holder of many honors.
Mr.. McClearn possesses a gold
medal awarded him at the univer-
sity for his outstanding work in de-
bate and oratory, and he led the de-
bate team for the entire three years
that he attended the university law
school. He clinched his right to
this leadership during his first year,
by winning first place in field of
30 contestants, and practically paid
his way through school by means of
cash prizes won in debate. Many
notable debates were won from
other large colleges under his lead
ership.
After acquiring his sheepskin, Mr..
McClearn came to Duluth and for
the last % years has practiced law
here. Following The fires of 1918,
he took up the cause of the fire suf-
ferers and since that time has been
actively engaged in prosecuting
their cases in the courts. In 1919
he got the first verdict in a fire loss
case in the district court in Duluth,
and since that time he has recover
ed millions of dollars for fire suffer
ers from the railroad administra-
ton.
At the present time Mr.. McClearn
is a member of the board of regents
of the Duluth State Teachers Col
lege, and is president of the Bar
Association of the Eleventh Judicial
District. Mr.. McClearn believes in
northern Minnesota. He knows its
problems and he is prepared to rep
resent it ably, efficiently and honest
ly.

A st. Paul association has adopt
ed a report in which it stated: For
the sake of justice and the general
welfare the business man should
welcome the opportunity to perform
Jury service as a public duty and
privilege of the highest character"
If. instead of every man trying to
dodge jury service, more competent
business men would welcome the
chance to serve, one of the great
obstacles to a proper administration
of justice would be overcome. In a
democracy jury service is no less
important than voting. Upon the
exercise of the rights and oblga-
tions imposed upon citizens IN a
free country depends the successful
administration of the government
and its laws.

EIGHT MILLION ACRES FALLoW
Duluth Herald

Something like eight million acres
of cutover land will be left lying
round loose in Northern Minnesota
when the national forest area has
been blocked out as now contem-
plated and when agriculture has
taken all it can use in the next
fifty or sixty years for field and
pasture.
What is Minnesota going to about
it?
Eight million acres is a fair esti-
mate. There was about twenty mil
lion acres of forest-bearing land.
