Rather than that the development of northern Minne- sota should be retarded for years the forest reserve in this state should be wiped out. The Times;| is not an advocate of such action. We believe in the forest reserve principle and we much prefer that the forest reserve in Min- nesota should stand asitis tod’ay. But the development of the wonderful resources of this great section of the state must be pro- moted as rapidiy as possible and ifit must be a choice between men and trees in northern Min- nesota we are for men, The Times believes that the present forest reserve is ample in size and that no additions should be made, Thousands of acres of land in arich agricultural region have already been set aside for for- estry purposes. It is enough. On the land that is left we want farms and towns and cities and people. Congressman Buckman has introduced a bill repealing all the forestry provisions of the Morris law. The bill will probably never become a law; still, it mightif the | forest reserve advocates do not cease their slander of northern Minnesota. — Crookston Times. Did you ever stopand consider that Bemidji as a thriving city has rtassed the experimenta) stage and is fast settling down and building up as'a solid com- mercial center of northern Min: nesota? The substantial build- ings erected during the past two years but emphasizes the faith her business men have in the city’s growth. Then too, the or- ganization of the summer resort companies, who are taking up the advertising of the advantages of Bemidji and the pleasurating features of this community. Again we are still more adver- cerns which afford markets for the natural resources of the country. These in a short time will bring to our city wholesale houses and other institutions. and pushto the front northern Minnesota’s best town—Bemidji. Both the Minneapolis Journal Senator A. D. Stephens for and the Pioneer Press say very kind things this week of Senator A. D, Stephens of Crookston as ayailable gubernatiorial timber.

Heis a popular man and if he should decide to heed the voice of the people clamoring for his candidacy he will receive the delegations from several counties in his end of the state. He is a Minnesota man, born in Carver county, has been mayor of Crookston, surveyor general of logs and lumber of the Seventh district and a member of the republican state central com- mittee. Ex-Mayor T. W. Hugo, of Du- luth, would make a strong candi- date for Governor. He isanable business man, a good presiding officer, a good campaigner and is in no way mixed up with the old Dunn-Collins factions. Let’s bring oui all the good material early in the campaign, so that when the time comes for the selection of a candidate, there will be a goodly number to choose from. Bogus Naturalization Papers. Youngstown, O., Feb. 8.—The treas- ury department in Washington is again making inquiry about bogus nat- uralization papers supposed to have been issued here and it is thought the party of Greeks who some time ago sold the papers in Buffalo and James- town, N.

In this way you WANTS ONE CENT A WORD. feel clean, strong and strenuous—you are toned up and invigorated, and you are good for a whole lot of physical or mental work. Best of all, the strength and in- crease in vitality and health are lasting. ‘The trouble with most tonics and med- icines which have a large, booming sale for a short time, is that they are largely composed of alcohol holding the drugs in solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red blood_corpuscles, and in the Jong run greatly injures the system. One may feel exhilarated and better for the time being, et in the end weakened and with vitality ecreased. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery contains no alcohol. Every bottle of it bears upon its wrapper The Badge of Honesty, in a full list of all its several ingredients. For the druggist to offer you something he claims is “just as good ” is to insult your intelligence, Every ingredient entering into the world-famed “Golden Medical Discovery ” has the unanimous approval and endorse- ment of the leading medical authorities of all the several schools of practice. No other medicine sold through druggists for like purposes has any such endorsement. The “Golden Medical Discovery” not only 'produces all the good effects to be obtained from the use of Golden Seal root, in all stomach, liver and bowel troubles, as in dyspepsia, biliousness, con- stipation, ulceration of stomach and bowels and kindred ailments, but the Golden Seal root used in its compound- ing is greatly enhanced in its curative ac- tion by other ingredients such as Stone root, Black Cherrybark, Bloodroot, Man- drake root and chemically pure triple- refined %lycerine. . “The Common Sense Medical Adviser,” is sent free in paper covers on receipt of 21 one-cent stamps to pay the cost of mail- ing only.
