It Was Proper.
Cass Lake is to be congratu
lated upon securing its own once
again, in the decision of the in
terior department to return to it
that large tract of northern
Itasca lands which was added to
the Duluth district some time
ago, but the settlers living in the
territory and the settlers yet to
come are more to be congratu
lated. With the territory in the
Duluth district the settlers in
this fertile region were put to
a great and unnecessary expense
of time and labor and money in
order to make their filings and
their final proofs. They were
compelled to come to* Cass Lake
and go yet 160 miles further on
in order to transact their land
business. Except in degree the
interior [department might as
well abolish all land offices and
compel the settler to go to Wash
ington.
The business of the land de
partment of the United States
government is all conducted at
long range which probably ac
counts fur such egregous blund
ers as this one of putting north
ern Itasca in the Duluth dis
trict and keeping it there for
months and only returning it
after the expenditure of great ef
fort on the part of those directly
interested.
IN NO county of the state was
the primary election more inter
esting than in the county of
Clearwater. There were fifty
seven candidates in the fieldone
candidate for ever ten votes.
They were all dead in earnest,
too. and they made [life a burden
for few who were not candidates.
The successful candidates are
nominated by very narrow
pluralities. This is Clearwater's
first experience and two years
hence there will probably be
fewer candidates and a simple
contest between "the court house
gang" and the "we want to be a
court house gang."
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has
served notice on the trusts that
they might as well not apply to
him any further in this cam
paign and has notified Chairman
Cortelyou that there must be no
"understanding" whatever with
the trusts. This may be regard
ed as an ultimatum and the big
trusts may now carry their cam
paign contributions to demo
cratic headquarters and save
themaelves a lot of unpleasant
publicity.
THE board of equalization has
increased the valuation of agri
cultural implements in Beltrami
couuty 20 per cent and on thresh
ings machines 80 per centor
perhaps we should have said,
threshing machine.

has issued an
expurgated edition of the foot
ball rules. Alexander will prob
ably find that his foot ball games
will also be expurgatedas to
spectators.
Now it is the tobacco trust
that threatens President Roose
velt if he will not be good. The
people of the country should put
this in their pipe and smoke it.

Between two heavy editorials
on socialism Brother Boen of the

nocently inquire, if Bob Dunn is
so guilty as Governor Van Sant
makes him out, why the governor
does not have him arrested.
Not to every man comes the
