Now that John Lind has recover- ed Senator Nelson isn't feeling quite so well. The University of Minnesota sys- tem seems to be what Tom Lawson once termed frenzied finance, 1llinois says she wants a investigation of Lormier, but what Illinois needs most is a new Senator. new If Sheriff Hazen makes good on his threat to “beat the block off” ‘someone, it will make a good item for the pape: Following in the wake of Bemidji St. Paul and other small cities throughout the state are to have pos- tal savings banks beginning July 1. At Brainerd a small boy who mix- ed a hammer up with a dynamite cap will have to get along from now on with seven fingers and one thumb, For the first time in the history of the country, the postal depart- ment doesn’t show a deficit. Perhaps Sheriff Hazen should have credit for this. some Russell death merely means that you wont Pastor contends that know anything, and the Pioneer Press suggests that if true it will not be much of a change for some people. Health Commiasloner Lankester of St. Paul has issued an order that all fruit for sale must be kept in- slde, and already the Amalgamated Association or Dirty Foot Flies have passed resolutions of indignation. PETEKSON AND THE PERJURY CHARGE Friends of Sheriff Hazen who at- tempt to discredit the charges made by Viggo Peterson probably shot over the mark when they filed an affidavit in St. Paul aceusing Mr. Peterson of perjury alleged to have been comitted in a law suit several months ago. It would look better for Hazen and his gang to disprove the Peterson charges rather than to attempt to divert attemtion. Mr. Feterson might be tte worst of men and still that would not be any excuse for Hazen or anyone else swindling the county. TYPICAL TACTICS. The course being pursued by At- torney General Simpson in the Haz- en case is typical of that official. For more than a week he has had charges in his possession which al- lege that the citizens of Beltrami county are being imposed upon by the sheriff. And yet on a question of such great importance the attorney gen- eral, so far as a written opinion is concerned, has taken no action. It is true that he has said orally that it would be illegal to proceed against Mr. Hazen because the al- leged wrong doing was committed in a previous term of office, although the Peterson petition stated speci- fically that corrupt practices had continued up to the time the peti- tion was prepared. If the attorney general thinks for a minute that he can dodge the is- sue, or that by opposing the govern- or and siding with Hazen he can make political capital out of the incident, he is as badly mistaken as state, he is in his conclusioy to become chief execu SAVING SOULS—AND DOLLARS. Billy Sunday who' yuit belng & successful baseball player to become a still - better evangelist, not ‘only increases the church membership but also adds to Billy’s bank account. Here is a list of towns in which S\md.ay has recently worked and the amount he received. Waterloo, Ta,, 24,000 population $9.000. f Portsmouth, 0., 26,000 pcnulatlon, $10,600. Newecastle, Pa., 42,000 population, $13.000. "Lima, 0.. with 35,000 populatis.i $11,000. Toledo, 0., over 100,000 popula- tion, betwcen $40,000 and. $50,96). Figuring on this percentage, 'if if he were to come to Bemidji he would go away with about $2,000 more than when he-came. SAFEGUARDS FOR MARRIAGE That there -should be more re- strictions thrown about the mar- riage relation is the firm opinion of most students of the subject. A very pointed remark is contained in the report of the Vice Commission of Chicago. The report says: An application for a license of any kind, whether it be to construct a house, run a push-cart, peddle shoestrings, or keep a._dog, must be accompanied with evidence that the applicants are responsible and re- liable agents. But for a mariage license, one person, unattended and unknown and, as far as onme can know, an epileptic, a degenerate, or who has in his blood a loathsome veneral disease may pass his name through a window with that of a similarly questionable female, like- wise unknown, and be granted the divine right to perpetuate his kind in turn, thereby placing a burden and blight on society and the com- munity for generations to come. Not all agree on the methods, but as public opinion is educated to the need for some modification of- our present rules, there will come about the possibility of improving condi- tions.
