Address, Bemidii : Pioneer Bureau, Staté Capitol, i St. Paul, Minn, A DIST:NCT HONOR President Brown of the New York Central railroad, Governor Eberhart and other notables were present and addresed the Minesota bankers when | they met in annual session at St. Paul last year, the sessions being in the grand opera house of that city. The bankers organization is one of the most influencial organizations in the state. The character of the organization at once commands deep- est respect, not only because its mem- bership contains the names of some of the state’s keenest minds, but be- cause every part of the common- ‘wealth is represented, and represent- ed usually by the highest type of citizen. . An organization of this kind—one usually confining its meetings to the larger citieS, which decides to honor Bemidji with its annual meeting, is entitled to every consideration and the meeting here next June should not only sustain the reputation of this city for open hearted hospitality, but a real effort should be made to establish a precedent, impressing these distinguished guests with the real spirit of the north. If, as there is reason to hope will be the case, James J. Hill, whose reputation extends around the world, comes to Bemidji, the occasion will be still more important from a sel- fish standpoint, for the Great North- ern power, would have an opportun- ity to view the growth of the town, and her advanced needs for proper facilities for the care of railway business. But whether Mr. Hill comes or does not come, tkhe meeting will be one of the most distinctive gather- ings ever held in Bemidji and its im- portance will be sufficient to insure the presence of some person of wide reputation as the leading speaker of the convention. It should be remembered that the State Bankers Association is broad in its aims and that to this or- ganization is due great credit for the increased interest in farm cultiva- tion and in the improvement of our educational system, the efforts in be- half of the latter being along prac- tical lines, I WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY I Keep Residents At Home. A. K. Strand, in conversation with ye editor, calls attention to the im- portance of keeping our residents at home.

Old Guard Leaders Are Active for a Taft Man. New York, Jan. 19.—While talking harmony and urging the necessity of burying the factional hatchet in. the Republican camp old guard leaders of the organization have begun a canvass to assure the election, to succeed Ezra P. Prentice, of a new state chairman ‘who will be a strong advocate of Pres- ident Taft’s policies. Friends of the president have realized for some time that Colonel Roosevelt’s control of the state ma- chinery would militate strongly against Mr. Taft’s renomination. To aid in their plans they recently in- duced Mr. Taft to name William Loeb, Jr., as the dispenser of patronage in this state after the collector had trans- ferred his allegiance from Oyster Bay to Washington. ‘When the state committee meets Saturday to name a successor to Mr. Prentice the old guard men will en- deavor to elect a man who can be de- pended on to aid them in blocking Mr. Roosevelt’s ambition to be the party’s candidate once more. Medicines that aid n2ture are al- ways most effectual. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy acts on this plan. It allays the cough, relieves the lungs, opens the secretions.and aids nature in-restoring the system to a healthy condition. Thousands:have testified to its superior excellence.

They will still continue to ask for country continue to develop as they have in the past ten years. “The wage ‘standards of these classes have been increased approxi- mately 40 per cent in the last decade. Yet they have done but little, if anything, more than keep pace with the increased cost of living. “They know, too, that transportation has not ‘been a serious element in in- .creasing the cost. of living, because rates generally have not been in- ‘creased.” Mr. Morrissey Teviewed briefly the adoption by the railways of equipment and appliances tending to the comfort, convenience and safety of the em- ployes, as well as of the public. All these, he pointed out, cost immense sums of money. ‘The railway employes for whom we speak,” he continued, “favor a liberal constructive policy towards the rail- ways.” Appendicitis.
