HITCHCOCK. ‘ntered in the postoffice at Bemidji, Minn., as second class matter. O_fficial County and City Paper SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR Astounding Ignorance. John A. Johnson, democratic candidate for governor, is going upand down southern Minnesota, making speeches and advising the people of that section of the proper method of administering the government of the state. His speeches are not reported for the newspapers and it is well for him that they are not if the rest of them are like the part of them which deals with the state drainage, It is well known that Mr. Joh nson is opposed to state drain age inasmuch as in the state sen- ate two years he yoted against the bill to appropriate $50,000 for state drainage work, his vote being one of the eight recorded against the measure. But it appears that Mr. John- is not only opposed to state drainage work, but that he does not even know what state drain- age means. In his recent speeches in southern Minnesota he has attacked state drainage on the ground that most of the swamp lands of northern Minne- sota belong to the railroads, and “why should the state drain land for the railroads?” queries Mr. Johnson. It is safe to say that no other publicman in Minne. ota was ever guilty of such amonumental dis- plé,y of ignorance. Everybody knows that money appropriated by the state for drainage can be used for the drainage of state swamp lands only. Every cent of money that the state has ap- propriated for drainage has been used solely for the drainage of state lands, and the state engi- neer is authority for the state- ment that eyery dollar which the state has spent for drainage has resulted in increasing the value of the state swamp land from one to ten dollars per acre, It is astonishing thata man with such stupendous ignorance of the business of the state should have the temerity to ask the people of the state to make him governor, THE democrats claim tbat Mr. Dunn is not an honest man be- cause when state auditor he set- tled timber tresspass cases for less than double and treble dam- ages. But who is to decide what the value of the pine is? There is reason to believe that eyery trespass case settled by Mr. Dunn as state auditor brought the state more money than it would had appeal been taken to the courts. At least every case that has been ap- pealed to the courts has re- turned the state less money thanif it had been settled. It appears that the courts have a different idea as to what consti- tutes double and treble dam- ages than have the democrats. THE most important adminis- trative office in the state outside of governor is state auditor and during the eight years that Mr. Dunn was state auditor the tax levy has been reduced from near- ly two mills to one mill and there is every reason to believe that if the state continues to pursue the policy adopted by Mr. Dunn it will be but a few years when no tax levy whatever will be - made for state purposes. This is the kind of a man the state needs for governor. Nothingjmu be better than the th o best—Mark’s lung Balsa.

The laughter which is directed to is compelled by the sight of in- cougruity or by sudden surprise. All laughter at all events 13 not good, the giggle and titter are laughter debased. People who trifle with laughter only sniff from the throat outward, while it is true, hearty laughter is an index to an honest soul. Carlyle was right when he said, ‘“No man, who has laughed wholly and heartily can be altogether bad.” “A Devil’s Lane,” is guaranteed to cause laughter.

THOS. BAILEY. No one who is acquainted with its good qualities can be sur- prised at the great popularity of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. It not only cures colds and grip effectually and permanently, but prevents these diseases from re- sulting in pneumonia, It is also acertain cure for croup. Whoop- ing cough is not dangerous when this “remedy is given. It con- tains no opium or other harmful substance and may be given as confidently to baby as toan adult. It is pleasant to take. ~ When all these facts are taken into consid- erationit is not surprising that people in foreign lands, as well as at home, esteem this remedy very highly and very few are willing to take any other after having once used it.
