Chester McKusick, one of Bemi- dji’s leading attorneys, was in town on business last Thursday evening. Mr. McKusick filed for the county attorneyship and surface indications are that he will be Henry Funkley’s successor. He is strongly opposed by the Pioneer and also the News, both papers of which are intensely loyal to the lumber corporations. —Blackduck American. . The above is a production of E. L. Oberg, the Adonis who is the personal “hammer” of I. B. Olson and whose paper is that individual’s “organ,” the handsome countenance of the wise I. B. appearing imme- diately above the article which we reproduce. The only prediction the Pioneer made relativé to McKusick was that he was using the Beltrami County Tax League to further his own interests, and that he would shortly appear as candidate for county attorney, using the league as a cloak to further his political ambitions. That- we were correct in our diagnosis of the case has - been amply proven by the events of the past few days: Wherein - Mc- Kusick filed for the republican nomication for county attorney, and J. J. Opsakl accuses the “foxy” Chester of being a traitor to the league, etc., and Opsahl himself attempts to assume the reigns of the league in order to againride into the legislature. Evidently, there has been a stir- ring up of dry bones among the gentlemen who launched the league; and Oberg, Olson, McKusick and Opsahl will use any kind of insinu- ations to further their own personal ends. —_— ANNUAL PARADE OF GRAND ARMY Veterans of the Civil Wa March at Toledo. TAFT REVIEWS HEROES Republican Candidate for President, Governor Harris, Senator Foraker and Many Otners Review the Par- \lde—Old Soldiers Saluted With Bombardment of Flowers as They File Past Reviewing Stand. Toledo, O., Sept. .—With flags fly- #g, bands playing, crowds cheering and a bright sky overhead veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic for the forty-second time marched through the streets of an encampment city. Through two miles of streets, guarded by a younger generation of soldiers— the Seventh regiment, Ohio national guard, who restrained the throngs of sightseers at the ropes—the old cam- paighers of Grant and Sherman moved to the blare of bands and the pipe and roll of fife and drum. At the of- ficial reviewing stand, where stood ‘Willlam H. Taft. Republican candidate for president; Governor Harris, Se ator Foraker, Mayor Brand Whitlock and many other notables, the colors were dipped and each department commander joined Commander-in- Chief Burtcn in the stand. The par- ade being the leading feature of the encampment many posts timed the’» arrival for that event and the crowd of visitors was augmented by thou- #ands. The day had been proclaimed » holiday by the mayor and the ma- jority of business places as well as publc offices were closed. The weather was ideal with a clear sky and the temperature of Indian svmmer. Governor Harris and Sena- tor Foraker, in carriages, repeatedly acknowledged the cheers of the crowds. Mr. Taft in the reviewing stand was cheered to the echo by the veterans as they passed. He was kept on his fest constantly returning the salutes of the old soldiers. “lLong Delay Wearies Veterans. The long and wedring d at the vatious points of mobilization - while walting for their proper place ta fall in- discouraged some of the more feeble veterans and they joined the spectators. It was well towards 11 o'clock when the van of the parade marched past the reviewing stand, where they were saluted with a bombardment of flowers, for which surprise the women of Toledo had been preparing for some days. They emerged from the floral shower to be greeted by an immense human flag made up of nearly 3,000 children, who, in their dresses of red, white and blue, swayed their bodies so that the emblem seemed to sway as in a breeze. The old soldiers saluted the picture with many a wave of hat or hand and hummed as they marched to pa- triotic songs the children sang. Long before the parade started the streets were packed with humanity to & degree_which made it al==sst im. 4 Political Announcements } FOR JUDGE OF PROBATE.

They came early, many with chairs and boxes on which to stand and they brought their lunches. Every window along the profusely decorated streets was filled and the public grandstands had no vacant place. Local newspa- pers estimate that including the vet- erans and their women folks there were 150,000 visitors in the city. Ex- cursion trains brought them by hun- dreds from the nearby cities of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan and they poured in from the rural districts on the va- rious interurban lines. BY CAPSIZING OF SLOOP Seven Out of Pleasure Party of Ten Perish. Deer Isle, Me., Sept. J,—Seven sum- mer visitors out of a party of ten, six of them wc'nen, were drowned by the capsizing of a 35-font sloop in Penob- sot bay off this islaad. With Captain Samuel Haskell the party started out for a sail in Penob- scot bay. It was drawing near the close of vacation season for most of them and they had planned this as their last outing together. The wind was from the southwest and squally. The sloop was of the “epen” variely. It had no deck for- | ward and no cabin and it contained no ballast, as ihe party of ten weighted the boat down quite heavily and Cap- tain Haskel’, an experienced navigator in these waters, thought that the craft would be v-ell balanced. All the n ‘mbers of the party were perched high up on the weather side as the slorp cut through the waves with the water almost coming over the gunwales on the lee side. Captain Haskell gave a shout of warning that he was going to tack and then threw over the tiller. Just at this moment the boat rose high upon a wave, ex- posing "her to the full brunt of the ‘wind. An unusually heavy gust struck her and in a twinkling the sloop went over on her beam ends and the ten passengers were thrown into the wa- ter. The npset, however, had been seen from Fagle island, not far frém-the scene of the accident, and as soon as possible a sloop was sent out to pick up the survivors. The rescuing party reached the boat and pulled three men sboard. The others had already sank.

He closed with an appeal for every man present regardless of political affiliation to vote for Bryan.

Republicans Carry the State by De- creased Plurality. . ‘White River Junction, Vt., Sept. J— A revifed tabulation of the vote cast for governor in the state election, with nineteen .small towns missing. gives George W. Prouty, Republican, 45,281; James E. Burke, Democrat, 15,903; uimby 8. Backus, Independence ague, 1,222; Eugene M. Campbell, Prohibitionist, 801;, and H. H. Dunbar, Socialist, 461 With the missing towns to hear from it was estimated. that Prauty’s plurality in the state would be about 29,000. The decrease in the Republican vote ounted to 6 per cent and in the mocratic vote to 3 per cént. Polit- ioal leaders were inclined to look upon the returns as indications that the voters were somewhat apathetic in regard to national issues. ‘The Republican majority in the leg- fslature the coming year will insure the election of a Republican succes- sor to the late Senator Redfield Proc- tor, probably in the person of his som, Governor Fletcher D. Proctor. The election of a Democratic mem- ber of the state senate gives the Dem- ocratic party a representation in that branch of the legislature for the first time In several years. At the last state election in 1906 not a single Democrat was elected to the state senate. \ VERY CLOSE CONTEST. Lovislana Primaries for Congressional Nominations.

New York, Sept. j—Chairman Mack and megbers of the national Demo- ctatic committee expressed them- sel¥es as pleaged with the- result of the election in' Vermoni. Mr. Mack said: “When you iconsider that the Dems-. cratic nationd]l committee made 13 campaign in Vermont and sent no money or natipnal speakers there the result is most(gratifying to the Demo- crats. The Republican national com- mittee sent national speakers of prom- inence there and us I understand it had plenty of money to make an ef- fective campaign. We do not intend to make a special campaign in Maine, nor in any state which is surely Re- publican, but will devote all our re- ‘sources to the so-called doubtful states.” CAMPAIGN IN OHIO. - Will Be Financed by Republican Na- tional Committee. Chicago, Sept.’ ;—Plans for conduet- ing the national campaign in Ohio are being considered by Chairman Frank H. Hitchcock of the Republican na- tlonal committee and H. G. Williams, chairman of the Ohio state committee. The fact that the Republican cam- paign in that state is under the diree- tion of Arthur I. Vorys and other Ohlo leaders has led to mo little con- fusion and it is this that Mr. Will- iams is trying to straighten out with Mr. Hitchcock. It was said at Repub- lican headquarters that a satisfactory understanding will be reached by which the Ohio campaign will be financed by the national committee and a full corps of speakers of na- tlonal prominence supplied to work in the state.

CROSS AND NERVOUS Bemidji Sufferers from Kidney Troubles Often Become Very Irritable. Cross, irritable people—the sort who fuss and mope and worry over trifles—are not always to blame for the annoyance they give to others. Frequently these traits are but the effects of kidney poisons on brain and nerves. Uric acid that escapes the kidneys irritates nerve centers and vital organs—causes backache, rheumatism and neuralgic pains— keeps you languid, all tired out— leads to Bright’s disease and dia- betes. Stop the trouble in the be- gioning with Doan’s Kidney Pills. *Twill cure the kidneys and remove the cause ofall these ills. Recom- mended by friends and neighbors in Bemidji. Ms. Ella Barrett, living on Sixth St.- and America Ave., Bemidji. Minn.,, says: “After using Doan’s Kidney Pills I am well pleased with the results. At the time.I began their use, I was very nervous and at times had dull pains in the small of my back accompanied by a dull aching across my kidneys..

In a short time I began to feel a great deal better,, and am . now much stronger and my energy has returned.
