Entered n the Postoffice at. class mattor, SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER YFAR !\-sDYANGE Wiangssts, 38 secoead JAMES L. GEORGE. A good many years ago Swift & Co., the big meat packers, decided to open a branch office in Brainerd. They wanted to send some one from Chicago with sufficient mnatural acumen together with an expert training to make the undertaking a success. James L. George was the person finally selected, and that is how he came to leave the smoke- clouded, nerve racking city for the peaceful delights of northern Minne- sota. Jim George went to work at Brainerd with a vim. He made good. Then came an offer from Irwin & O’Brien, Bemidji loggers, which was so tempting that it was accepted and on election day in 1902 Mr. George came to this city and it has since been his home. For six .years Mr, George con- tinued with the logging firm as bookkeeper and when that com- pany ceased operations he found himself possessed of several offers and he finally accepted one from Bemidji Brewing company where he not only showed rare skill as an accountant but did much work of a commendable nature along executive lines. He has never completely sever- ed his connection with this com- pany put during the past year has found it possible to expand his work as an expert accountant and has audited the books of many of the city’s leading business institu- tions, receiving a training that will prove of much value to him in the office of county auditor, to which position he has been nominated on the republican ticket. “My intention,” said Mr. George, ‘s, if | am elected, to employ sufficient competent help to teacu me the routine work and to put the office in first class shape. “I do not need to to tell those who know me best that T shall play no favoritess. I have been accused of being a ‘tool of interests,’” whatever that may mean, and my only answer is that I go into the office with no promises to fulfil, ex- cept the one made to the people that I should do my duty. So far as my power permits I shall demand that alltaxesbe collected without fear or favor; big and little will receive the same treatment. I am bound to no person and my sole aim shall be to give the county a good clean, honest, competent administra- tion. “Three times I have aspired to the office and each time the expense in connection with my campaigns has come from my own pocket and from money I have earned on a straight salary.” \ Mr. Wellman was to sail across the ocean and still is. \ Speaking of skycrapers, how do you like the new fourteen story fall hats? When beset by trials and tribu- lations, just think of the Cass Lake saloonkeepers. Apples may cure aman- of drink but it takes boarding house prunes to drive him to it. Cass Lake is beginning to: realize that what Sherman said about war is all too true. Northern Minnesota - has-a right to feel warm under the collar at some of that forest fire-dope. It is proposed to make -the: dollar bill smaller. It is plenty small enough now with winter coming on Mr. Ballinger still sticks. Ithas been suggested that some enterpris- ing ‘manufacturer might do well to name a new brand of muscilage after him.

That class of persons who dearly love to go-away from home to buy things also sends large delegations to the city to have their dental work done. The better class of dentists are |encrusted in a batch of ethics which shuts out the privilege of advertis- ing, except so far as aplain business card may be constructed as adver- tising, and even thisis denied them in some places. Thus handicapped it is not sur- prising that a . certain species of near-men . doing business in the larger cities in expensively furnished office and buying liberal space in newspapers are enabled to fastened their clutches upon their victims, many of them coming from places even as large as Bemidji. To those who have been caught, or may be, the following may serve as a warning and a convincing argu- ment that a pretty safe place to have one’s dental work done is in the office of a man who has won the re- spect of the community .and whose livlihood depends upon his doing good work. We quote from an article in the current issue of Hampton Magazine written by Roy McCardell under the title “The Tooth Tinkers:” Mr. Cardell uses affidavits obtained by the New York Dental association from men who have worked in the fake dental parlors. The New York Dental association has prosecuted 500 cases against these fake dentists, but they continue to thrive. These stories of the operators show why. “We were expected to™ get all the money possible,” said one of these operators, in his sworn confession. ‘If there wasn’t much work to be done, we had to find defects in the patient’s teeth, anyhow. I had a smattering of dentistry, having at- tended a dental college for a year, but was not a graduate. I got fairly good pay, but only on the understanding that I must do some- thing to every patient sent to me. ““If the contractor made one esti- mate, I had to ‘raise the contract,’ by finding new defects that had to be remedied. If nothing else could be dome, I told the patient that the gums needed hardening, or that the mouth was too full of acid, and I made people come back day after day when I did nothing ex- cept what is professionally known as ‘turn cotton.' That i<, I would clean out a tooth for filling, plug it with cotton, and tell the patient I didn’t dare fill it until I knew whether the roots could stand filling. |. we Every time the patient returned, it meant another deposit. We wouldn’t bother with a patient who didn’t make a deposit every visit. Ifa gatient fried to get out of pay- ing, we would inject something to make the tooth hurt, or even remove a filling, and no mat- ter what the work was, we always collected in advance.’ *“ ‘I remember in one of the places where I worked,” said another wit- ness, ‘there was a tinker who didn’t know how to fit a gold crown. In- stead of cementing it on, he simply ground down the apex and slipped the cap on. The woman was told it was the newest and best method, as she could then remove it after eating, clean it, and always keep it polished. Needless to say, within a month, the tooth had decayed badly and a real dentist fixed it up with great difficulty. ¢I can also remember a case in Brooklyn, where an operator, who ‘|wanted to curry favor with the management by bringing in large fees, filled a tooth with gold fill ing, and deliberately left a small piece of cotton soaked in some antiseptic, in the bottom of the cavity. In about four. days this cotton worked such damage from gas formed by fermentation that the filling was actually blown out of the tooth, and the patient came back to have it repaired, having suffered agonies meanwhile. This time the operator took back the gold, put in porcelain cement, painted it with aluminum paint, and collected another big fee.” ‘] once-saw'the contractor in a so called dental parlor order out a perfectly good tooth, confessed an- other operator, ‘because there was a decayed tooth on each side, as the removal of the sound tooth would make possible a more ex- pensive piece of bridge work.”” Wants .

Thomas Keefe, of Bagley, who is the Republican candidate fo1 judge of district court. is making a good campaign. Mr. Keefe is one of the best attorneys in the Fifteenth .dis- trict.and is well known in the ~west- ern part of it. He is making a splen- did showing with all whom he meets and sentiment now indicates that he will win over Judge Stanton.— Itasca News. Frank Eddy Talks of Insurgency. Frank M. Eddy, ex-congressman and political sage, made one of his frequent visits to Alexandria Mon- day. Mr. Eddy says he was. con- sidered something of an insurgent in his day in Congress but he cannot keep pace with the present day movement in Mionesota. In his opinion there is more insurgency to the square mile in the Sixth dis- trict than in any.other districtin Minnesota. He predicts the election of Anderson in the First district.— Alexandria Post News. Earl Geil Good, But Hanson Needed It is reported that some of the dis- satisfied ones are going to vote for Earl Geil of Bemidji for senator. Mr. Geil is an able man, a socialist and as his party has declared for county option it is supposed that he is in favor of the proposed county option law. In this respect therefore it matters not whether-he or A. L. Hanson goes to the senate. Every- thing points to the reelection of Mr. Hanson however by an overwhelming majority. In these days of “graft” and a tendency tu legislate in favor of corporate wealth as against the mass men A. L. Hanson’s type are needed.—Blackduck American. Peter's Bossie is Some Cow. Peter Brate’s Jersey cow that took first prize at the county fair, is an animal that the owner and the entire county may well be proud of. This cow is rather larger than the average Jersey. She is of pure breed- ing and as a butter fat producer she stands probably without an equal in this part of the country. ) This cow produces 2% pounds of butter a day. Mr. Brate says he has two other good cows, but the Jersey produces as much butter daily as the two of them together. Her calves sell readily at from 380 to $100 a piece. The other day Mr. Brate was offered $300 for this cow, but he refused the offer.—Wadena Pioneer Journal.

Before the operation was begun he said: “Cap this ring be mended so a pawn- broker will give me the usual amount on it?" “1t can be mended.” said the jeweler, “but I doubt if you can ever persuade a pawnbroker to accept it afterward.” “Then I guess I'll take chances on my finger getting well with the ring n,” said the young man and left the store. 3 “‘Incidents like that," said the jewel- er. “show what a surprisingly large number of [’hiladelphians live with the pawnshop looming up just ahead of them as an unavoidable evil. Of all the people who need-their rings cut off two-thirds of them ask that very ques- tion, and a large percentage of them take chances on blood:poisoning rather than destroy the ring's value as a pawnable asset.” —Ihiladelphia Ledger.
