A special election for the Inde- pendent School District of Bemidji will be held this evening, for the purpose of voting on the proposition to authorize the board of directors to sell the lots owned by the district, in Carson’s addition, to the Soo Railway company for use as a por- tion of that company’s right-of-way through the city of Bemidji. Every voter who can be present at the polls should participate in this election and thereby give as far as possible the general expression of the people of Bcmidji as to the proposed sale of the lots. While the sum at which it is pro- posed to sell the lots is a nominal one, yet by this sale every resident of the city is giving a little toward helping the greatest independent railway in the United States to enter Bemidji. Be present at the polls this even- ing, at 7 o’clock, and vote your con- victions as to the proposition set forth. THE CHRISTMAS SEASON. The Christmas spirit is in the air, and it is doubtful if there is a city in the state that has made more elabor- ate preparations for the holidays than our own. The merchants have responded to the feeling of buoyancy that the season creates and they have loaded the shelves and tables and even the floor space of their stores with everything that the season demands. They have bought heavily of holiday goods and every- one of the establishments is a verit- able exposition of things that are beautiful and sensible. Assist the merchants in their labors during the holiday season that is fast approaching by purchas- ing your Christmas gifts early. CAUSTIC COMMENT. LA. G. Rutledge.] Hunger does not carry with it an appetite for learning. Printer’s ink marks the pathway to riches and fame. Try it. The average man is not willing to concede that cutting down extra- vagances is the same as cutting down expenses. It is interesting to learn that “human beings lived in the Alps 100,000 years ago.” Only Swiss botel-keepers live there now, you know. There is no better way of building up our city than giving to our home business men our entire patronage. The more we help each other the more we help the city. “Boxing is dead in Milwaukee,” says a press dispatch. Once more the Cream City will have to modestly turn its faith back to its old reliable standby for making itself famous— the “amber fluid.” Additional_:ocals Only 25 cents for the chicken pie supper at the armory tomorrow from 5t08 p. m. W. H. Browning went to Walker this morning with the intontion of returning this evening and spending the night in Bemidji. Mrs. Gusta Wagner and daughter arrived in the city last evening from Marble Rock, Ia., and spent the night here. They left this morning for McIntosh. Mrs. E. E. Smiley came to the city last night from her home at Nary and spent the night here, be- ing a guest at the Hotel Markham. Mrs. Smiley returned to her home at Nary this morning. G. H. Warner, trainmaster for the M. & I. Railway company, was a busy visitor in the city this morn- ing. Since the switchmen’s strike all of the M. & I. head officials have been éxceediegly busy and haven’t slept much o’nights. L.D. Libbey of Minneapolis, a member of the contracting firm of | Libbey-Nelson Co., came to Bemidji this morning from Minneapolis to note how progress is being made on the new M. & I. district terminals in South Bemidji. Everything con. sidered the work is progressing very satisfactorily, and it is expected that the terminals will be ready for use along the early part of Januaty. An indication that the strike has not seriousy affected the meat supply in Bemidjiis shown by the fact that Swift & Co. today received five cars of beef which had been sent tbrough from St. Paul with the usual celerity. This would indicate that the big meat company has good standing with both the switchmen and the railway companies and the strikers are to be commended in allowing the cars of meat to come through un- molested and without delay. Notice. The Bemidji Steam Laundry is now moving into its new location, at the corner of Beltrami avenue and Second street. The work of removal will require about a week, and during that time our laundry work will be cared for by the Grand Forks Steam Laundry.

Western Labor & Supply Co., 521% West Mich, St., Duluth, Minn, GOVERNOR LIKELY T0 WITHORAW TRODPS Ohio Executive Sends Notice to Mill Managers. Bridgeport, 0., Dec. 10.—Interesting developments are expected shortly in the strike at the Aetna-Standard il of the American Sheet and Tin Plate company. President indications point either to the dismantling ot the works or a resumption on a nonunion basis. Following telephonic communica- tion between Governor Harmon and General'Speaks it is reported that the governor directed the withdrawal of all the troops unless the plant man- agement made an effort to operate the mills. It is further reported that General Speaks was instructed to notify the company officials that there had been no serious trouble at the plant since the arrival of the guardsmen and that as long as such conditions continued continued there was no need for the national guard. When the governor's attitude was made known a conferemce was ar- ranged between the officials, represen- tatives of the strikers, Joseph Bishop of the Ohio arbitration board and General Speaks. ENGLISHMAN MUCH PUZZLED Cannot See Why Bread Costs So Much in America. Chicago, Dec. 10.—Cost of bread in Chicago has proved a puzzle to J. R. Cahill, an investigator for the labor department of the board of trade of London. Mr. Cahill told of his be- wilderment before the City club, “I can’t understand,” said he, “how ‘we can buy bread in England for one- third the price you pay in Chicago, when you send us our wheat. You have to pay 5 cents for fourteen ounces of bread, while we get a loaf weighing sixty-four ounces for 10 cents. Our four-pound loaf never costs more than 12 and usually only | 10 cents. I confess I can’t under- stand it.” i and costs and Thomley was sent to MIGROBES IN THE SCALP The Latest Explanation Is that Mi- crobes Cause Baldness. Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger- many, and Dr. Sabourand of Paris, France, share the honor of having discovered the hair microbe. Baldness is not caused thr ough few weeks’ work of these hair mi-, crobes, but it is the result of con- ditions brought about by their pres- ence. Baldness may not occur until years after the microbes began work, but itis certain to come sooner or later. The microbes cut off the blood supply. They feed on the fatty matter about the roots of the hair, through which the blood is absorbed. Finally the fatty matter is consumed, the food supplies of the hair is gone and it starves and finally dies. Recorcin is one of the most effect- ive germ destroyers ever discovered. Beta Naphthol is a most powerful, yet absolute safe germicide and antiseptic, which prevents develop- ment of germ matter and creates a THE MODEL DRY CLEANING HOUSE HOGANSON BROS., Proprietors Telophone No. 537 106 Second Stres Dry Cleaning of Ladies’ and Gents’ Clothing, Rugs, Carpets, Household Furnishings, etc. Also Sponging and Pressing on Short Notice.

Borex, because of its well-definsd softening and cleansing properties, is most useful in the treatment of scalp and hair diseases. Glycerine acts as a stimulent to the hair bulbs, and has a soothing, healing and nourishing influence. Alcohol is indispensible in medicine because of its antiseptic, stimulating' and preservative qualities.
