Mr. and Mrs, Frank Patterson The Clearwater Crystal (pub- spent Sunday at Bowers. lished at Bagley) and the Bagley Independent, editorially mention the Pioneer man, whose efforts to give a full account of the fair recently held at Bagley, paid the following compli- ment to the editor hereof: Bagley Independent: Doc Rut- ledge, editor of the Bemidji Daily Pioneer, attended the Clearwater county fair and if ever there was a booster for Northern Minnesota, “Doc is the one.” Every daily in Minnesota and North Dakota knew that there was a fair at Bagley, also that all the experts who attended to judge the stock and award premiums, publicly stated that ‘“‘Clearwater county had the best display of vege- tables and grasses ever exhibited in the state.” Doc. never allows anything that is good for Northern Minnesota to escape the public’s eye. He is always on hand to send the good news to every part of the world. Were there more boosters of his stamp in this portion of the state, not an acre of cut over land could be bought under $40.00. The Clearwater Crystal: We have before us copies of the Bemidji Daily Pioneer and the Crookston Daily Times, two of the most energetic and wide awake dailes in this part of the country, and in both of them we find very laudatory and complete re- ports of our county fair of last week. They give us some excellent and, as we hope, merited free advertising that will mean much to us iun the winning a place of recognition among our sister counties of the north, We wish, on behalf of the County Agricultural - Society as well as on our own behalf, to acknowledge our sincere appreciation of this recogni- tion by our esteemed neighbors to }Ahe east and west, and then especially Doc” Rutledge of the Pioneer who favored us with a visit during the fair. The Pioneer wrote all of the articles that were publisbed, includ- ing those in the Daily Pioneer, Crookston Times, Duluth Evening Herald and the Twin city papers. We know that the Clearwater County fair was of such an excellent character that it was deserving of all the good things that were said of it, otherwise we would not have commented at such great length on the fair. PAID UNDER BARK GUARANTY SYSTEM Depositors of Oklahoma Insti- fution Lose Nothing, Oklahoma City, Okla, Sept. & .— State Bank Commissioner Young, who on Tuesday took charge of the Colum- bia Bank and Trust company, with deposits aggregating $3,000,000, has begun paying depositors dollar for dol- lar. It was announced that payments would be continued until all depositors ‘were satisfied. The bank guaranty fund, together ‘with the available assets of the bank, will be used in settlement of the claims. No alarm has been occasioned here regarding the failure. Officials of the lignidated bank say they will reopen in a few days—possibly under a new organization. Fifty thousand dollars of the bank guarantee fund was in the bank April 80, 1909. On that date the state’s bank guarantee fund amounted to $302,500. The banking board has lev- led an additional assessment on the state banks to replenish the guaran- tee fund.

To be cured you must know the cause, Itis wrong to imagine relief is cure. Backache is kidney ache. You must cure the kidneys A Bemidji resident tells you how this can be done. Clyde Johhson, living at 1014 Be- midji, Ave., Bemidji, Minn., says: “For some time I endured a great deal of suffering from kidney com- plaint. There was a pain in my back and during the early part of the day I felt lanquid and tired. I decided to try a reliable kidney remedy, went to the Owl Drug Store, and procured a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills. I used them accord- irg to directions, when the pains ‘disappeared and the tired, lanquid feeling vanished. I know Doan’s Kidney Pills to be a reliable remedy and can recommend-them to anyone sufiering from kidney complaint.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. .
