THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER | A STARTLING STATEMENT 'PUBLISHED EVERY AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY BY THE BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. C. J. PRYOR. G. E. CARSON. A. C. RUTLEDCE, Editor. Entered In the Postoffice at Bamid)l, Minnesota, as second class matter, SUBSCRIPTION---85.00 PER YEAR'IN ADVANGE In commenting upon the recent removal of the county auditor of this county, the Deer River News says: “The auditor of Beltrami county has been removed by the governor for other than political reasons. A special law should be enacted for Beltrami county, permitting it to hold election once a year.” ALBERT F. KAISER FOR STATE TREASURER. George F. Authier, political writer for the Minneapolis Tribune, is au- thority for the statement that Albert F. Kaiser of Bagley is being talked of in influential circles as the repub- lican candidate for state treasurer. Mr. Authier says: “Albert Kaiser of Bagley is the latest candidate for the Republican nomination for state treasurer. Mr. Kaiser comes from the Ninth district. is a banker in his home town, and stands very well in his home district, As his name would indicdte, he is a German, which would line up well with the probable intention of hav- ing that nationality well represented on the ticket. Mr. Kaiser has been looking the field over and professes to be receiving counsiderable encour- agement.” As State Treasurer Dinehart has announced that he will be a candi- date for congress from the Second Congressional district, the field is open to candidates for the republican nomination for state treasurer. While the candidacy of several worthy aspirants has been announced for state treasurer, there have been none mentioned which would suit the people of northern Minnesota better than that of Albert Kaiser of Bagley. Mr. Kaiser has been a life-long republican, has worked indefatigably for the success of the party, and through it all has never asked for anything at the hands of the people; and it is doubtful if he knew before- hand of the efforts of his friends to push him as a candidate for state treasurer, despite Mr. Authier’s statement that Mr. Kaiser is a candidate. Should the republican party see fit to nominate Mr. Kaiser for state treasurer, there is no doubt that he would receive the largest vote in northern Minnesota ever accorded any candidate on the state ticket. CAUSTIC COMMENT. (A. G, Rutledge.] A St. Paul man was mistaken for a rabbit and shot recently. He missed a great chance to make a hare-breadth escape. Chicagoans have asked the govern- ment for a revenue cutter. According to a certain organization we wot of, there are some tax dodgers in Bel- trami county who cutters, all right. are revenue What would the world say if Dr. Cook and party of eminent theorists climbed Mount McKinley and found no records at the top and then Dr. Cook claimed that Barrill climbed up and stole the records before making the affidavit? This pole controversy is becoming about as vitrolic as certain political feuds which have existed in Beltrami county for some time past.

Dyspepsia wears out the body and brain. The weakened, irritable stomach being unable to digest food, the body does not receive the re- quired nourishment, and the victim becomes thin, weak and haggard. As a result, the body becomes a fer- tile field in which the germs of dis- ease may lodge and flourish. Therefore, the person who permits dyspepsia to progress unhindered is guilty of contributing toward the development of one of the most in- sidious and fatal diseases known to mankind. Dyspepsia may be completely era- dicated if properly treated. We sell a remedy that we positively guaran- tee will completely relieve indigestion or dyspepsia, or the medicine used during the trial will cost the user nothing. This remedy has been named Rex- all Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly! no offer could be more fair, and our offer should be proof positive that Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are a dependable remedy. Inasmuch as the medicine will cost you nothing if it does not bene- fit you, we urge you who are suffer- ing with indigestion or dyspepsia to try Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. A 25- cent box contains enough medi- treatment. For chronic cases we have two larger sizes, 50 cents and $1.00. Remember you can obtain Rexall Remedies in Bemidji only at our store,—The Rexall Store.

Druggist E. A. Barker of this town says that he has found in- disputable proof that eczema can be cured—not in one or two cases, but 1n scores of cases which he has studied. He would, of course, not think of making such a recommendation to his neighbors and patrons, were it not that his years and years of suc- cess with D. D. D. Prescription en- ables him to speak of this remedy with confidence. It is a gentle, soothing wash with the mild oil of wintergreen as a base. All the cures seem to be permanent, at any rate, a trial bottle at 25 cents will take away the itch at once—instantly. We are sure of this. E. A. Barker, Bemidji, Minn, urged to be present.
