No. The Chiroprac:.c and the Osteopath both aim to put in place that which is out of place, to right that which is wrong; but the Path- ology Diagnosis, Prognosis and Movements are entirely different. One of my patients, Mr. W. A. Casler, has taken both Chiropractic and Osteopoth treatments. The Chiropractic is ten times more direct in the adjustments and the results getting health ten times more thor- - ough in one tenth of the time than an Osteopath would.

HITCHCOCK: ‘nrared In the postoffice at Bemidj!, Minn., 23 second rlass matter, Official Paper Village of Bemidii SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER VEAR Gov. Johnson’s Messége.‘ Governor Johnson’s message to the legislature is brief and full of meat. It advocates a large number of things like tax reyision, rate ad- justment, educational reforms, etc., which will ' meet the approy- al of “everyone. They are the things for which we have all been contending for years, things which the gradual development of the state are certainly bring- ing about. The only new pro: position of importance mention- ed by Governor Johnson is the making of the goveruor’s term " |four years and making him in- eligihle for reelection. The pro- position has no chance whatever of becoming a law—the people of Minnesota are entirely satisfled with the present two years ar- rangement and they will decide for themselves whether a man is entitled to two or four years or more in the governor’s chair. The message is remarkable however for the hostility that it breathes toward drainage and the board of control. Of drain- age the governor says that the present system is “unsatisfact- ory” and of the board of control he says that its worth is yet to be proved. Itjs evident that Minnesota has a governor squarely . at vari- ance with the great public poli- cies which the people of the state have so emphatically ap- proved. : Clapp’s Election.

A HENNEPIN county solon is said to have said ‘that if $10,000 had been thrown into the fight at the last minute Senator Clapp would have been defeated. Who is always the first to cry ‘‘stop thief?” WHAT has become of that re- port of public examiner Johnson which disclosed such a ‘‘terrible state of affairs” in the state andi- tor’s office? Nobody has ever heard of it since election day, Mr. Johnson’s extraordinary activity has suddenly and totally ceased. Can it be possible that he was working for a political faction instead of the state? is now certain. Nothing else would have been decent for the republican party of the state to do. . Two republi can state conventions have de- clared unanimously for Clapp’s reelection and a majority of the members of the legislature were elected this fall upon the distinct promise and” pledge that they were for Clapp. Senator Clapp has proved him- self an able man and he will worthily represent Minnesota in the national senate during the six years beginning March 4 of this year. With two such men as Nelson and Clapp Minnesota will not fare ill in Washington nor will the nation have cause to complain of the senators which Minnesota has named. WHILE both governors had cordial greetings, both were speaking in a sense to a hos- tile legislature. The republi- can members elect, who had been candidates on the same ticket with R.C. Dunn, many of them felt chagrin at his defeat, and some resentment against the retiring governor for his attitude in the cam- paign. For this reason the recommendations of the two messages, while listened to with interest, will not carry the weight that they would have, coming from an active head of their own political party.—News item in Minne- apolis Journal, If the Journal and some others had thought of this before Minne- sota would not be afflicted with a governor and a legislature work- ing at cross purposes. THE defeat of Dunn did not seem t0 have a like effect on Senator Clapp. We trust that overworked lie will be quietly buried.—St. Cloud, Journal Press. “That overworked lie’ came so close to'being the truth that Senator Clapp’s friends: have been in a panic for the past month and had it not been for the cordial cooperation of the Dunn men all over the state Senator BITSINOR TH b EROM | COUNTRY 4§ 2l e S 2B 2B o 2B Mr. Hines is in hiding. —0— Hibbing is the hub of prosper- ity. —0— Glencoe coppers a canning fac- tory. o= Most everybody applauds Mr. Clapp. —— ‘Wonder if Goyernor Van still has a mad on? 2 —— Todd county pulled off 183 mar- riages in 1904. —o— And it snowed upon the just and the unjust. “Every doggerel has its say,” muses the Cass Lake Times. —— The fear of rust never grows rusty in the Red River Valley. —— The banks of the north coun- try have more money than ever.
