ENTERED AS SECOND CLASS MAT- TER AT THE POSTOFFICE AT BE- MIDJI, MINN,, UNDER THE ACT OF MARCH 3, 1879, & POOPOOOO000000006 HEALTH HINTS FOR TODAY @ @ Water With Meals. A difference of opinion has. existed as to whether water should be drunk with food. Recent experiments have seem- ed to indicate that water may be drunk with benefit at meal- time. This is not finally settled but it is certain that the prac- tice of following a bit-of food immediately with a mouthful @ of water or other liquid, wash- ing it down without proper % mastication and mixture with ® the salva, is injuricus. Child- @ ren should especially be trained @ to avoid this habit. There is @ no doubt that in a case ir which @ food is imperfectly masticated @ the drinking of 2 moderate @ amount of water slowly after @ eating would faciliate digest- ©6060H06 66 PPV PVPIIPDIVPPOPODOO O side over the destinies of the ‘state training school at Red Wing, and for this reason: because- if the gover- nor had desired to place political ambition:above duty, he /might'have done what the legislature did and what ‘many individuals have done' ‘and ‘that is to_bltmdly pass over the testimony of the training school in- vestigation. There was nothing to compel the governor to:take special notice -of -the-caseafter the ‘legis- lature had voted to whitewashthe famous—or-infamous—inventor of -a Wwhipping contrivance. Nevertheless realizing that-he “was to*encounter strong and even bitter opposition: of ‘prominent politicians, both in :and out of his own party, he studied the evidence and, we believe, wisely, ecame to the conclusion that the 'best interests of the boys sent to Red Wing would-be protected by the:dis- missal of Whittier aad that the pro- 'gresg of the state demanded such a reform. By dodging his duty, as.he has seen it, Governor - Eberhart fcould ‘have continued in ‘the good ferices of both Whitier’s foes and de- fenders but the governor’s comsci- ence was too free from elastic. 'From a political- standpoint, his:stand in regard to Red Wing is poor; from the standpoint of a man’who was sworn in to protect the state it is ‘commendable. WILLING: WOODROW'WILSON. Four or five years ago. Woodrow ‘Wilson, at that time president of Princeton University, said to a friend: & “I ghould like to enter politics and find out whether a man who is not & ion, but the bite and sup habit ®| 2 professional politician -could ‘ever @ is obviously bad. @ POOOPOPPOOOOPO®OO®® Speaking of conversation club cong- resses—we have the women with us this week. If you don't catch any, it is a sin to fish on .Sunday, but if you do —well, that's a different matter. University of Minnesota co-eds dis- played rare talent in a May day fete last week and some of them in Greek costumes did even more than that. Of the 1,500,000,000 who inhabit the earth, 250,000,000 wear .no clothes and if congress doesn’t revise the wool flchedule that number is apt to be increase - During the past eight Minnesota has been spending '$48,- 000 a day. There is no use talking, Minnesota will have to stop putting eggs in the cake. months At the present time there are 711 inmates of the Minnesota state pen- itentiary and there should be more, having in mind particularly the man who rocks the boat, John Deitz says that a revolution will take place as the result of his having been sent to prison, but it should be remembered that John also said that the jury would acquit him. Louis Hill believes this is the psychological moment to fiah home- seekers for Northern Minnesota. Sure thing, Louis, and we might add that the time is propitious for the Great Northern railroad company to build a new depot in Bemidji. PARSON WHITE IS RIGHT. It was a good old fashioned ser- mon that Rev. White pounded into his congregation at the Presbyterian church yesterday morning. The parson was not backward about ex- pressing regret over the indifference shown by parents to the rising gener- ation and he expressed atimely warn- ing against the growing tendency toward nonrestraint. But best of all, Rev. White hurled a direct bomb at the moving picture evil and lament- ed, as well he may, the inquitious influences permeating this form of amusement, an amusement which might readily be made not only harmless but at the same time ed- ucational. Perhaps the minister had in mind the ‘future stability of the church when he denounced the practice of permitting - children to revel in the crude delights-of the Sunday evening theatre, but there is more than the life of the church at stake. We are not ready to say that the moving picture shows of Bemidji are in themselves: demoral- izing, but we are ready to say that Rev. White was entirely right when he said that there are better forms of recreation than these shows for children on Sunday nights. NONSENSE. : It seems to the Daily Pioneer that it is nonsense to say that politics is playing a part in Governor Eberhart’s conclusion that Superintendent Whittier is not a fit person to' pre- attain-a position ‘worth“while; say, for instance, president ofthe United States.” This remark was published by some of the magazines at the. time and created some comment but Woodrow seemed farther away from the White House than: Doc-Cook was from ‘the North Pole Time rolled on until the state of New Jersey, notorious for its mos- quitoes, trusts and other evil things, faced the chore of electing a gover- nor. Normally New Jersey is Re- publican, but shrewd democrats, for good and sufficient reasons, saw that the people were beginning to blink their eyes and that with a proper candidate they might even get them wide open. i Woodrow ‘Wilson was thecandidate and his election shows that the-New Jersey voters-did awaken. Governor Wilson’s victory, fore- ing the legislature to ‘elect, for the first time in many ‘moons a real representative of the people to the United States Senate; and other re- forms which he managed to effect, are too late and sensational history to necessitate recital here. Suffice to say that during the short .time he has been governor of New Jersey Woodrow Wilson has risen until-the cry has gone up, “Will he be a caididate for president in 191227 At Portland, Oregon, the other day, in answer to'the question as to whether he is-a-candidate for:the democratic presidential nomination, he replied: “I certainly shall not seek the nomination but no man: is-too big to refuse it.” It begins to look as if the curious and, we surmise, skeptical, former president of Princeton will find out that it is still possible in America for the best man to win.

WANTS KNUTE TO SIT ON.LID. Bemidji is wrestling with - the sewer problem--and has spent -about $2,500 on a septic. tank and is afraid it is useless, and not strong-enough to withstand the fifteen tons pressure Which would result.from. placing the cover-on it, and Alderman Knute Roe did not want to assume the responsi bility of aecepting it, and-so a num- ber of committees and some. cement men ‘have been. appointed. to see if it is alright. - Knute might sit. on lid.—Mocrhead Indenendent. “KENTUCKY BLACKBIRDS” BAD, The “Kentucky Blackbirds’. troupe which appeared with an impromptu vaudeville show at_the opera house.
