Dr. Dumas and his gang of trained, politicians, Anyone finding that 14,000,000 gallons of water lost by the city should return it at once and receive 3 Waterhur, tch as a reward. A young woman came all the way from Philadelphia to sing in Minne- apolis at the Bookkeepers’ conven- tion. She probably sang something sweet. This has been the coldest week in August that Minneapolis has had since Fido was a pup, and as a result Minneapolis is about ready to vote in favor of a recall of the weather man. Bet a twisted doughnut that the first thing the new race of people discovered by Stefanson in the ar- tica asked was “What’s the score? And did Marty O'Toole pitch for Pittsburg yet?” Thomas Alexander, for 30 years steward at the Stillwater prison, has resigned, and his resignation has been accepted. There are others at the prison who are ready to resign but for the good of the service the state refuses to accept their resigna- tions. STORIES ABOUT STEPHENS. From the battery of Twin City typewriters which grind out so many columns of copy a day, rain or shiné, fact or fietion, comes the tidings that A. D. Stephens of Crookston is to be- come a candidate for lieutenant gov- ernor at the next election. So far as we know Mr. Stephens has not denied the story, and he probably will not g0 to that trouble. Mr. Stephens, ‘who was the regular nominee of his party for the state senate last fall, was defeated on “stickers” at the gen- eral election by John Saugstad, whom Stephens had defeated for the nomi- nation. Mr. Stephens questioned the legality of the “sticker” dodge and contested Saugstad’s election in the senate, but unsuccessfully. Follow- ing this Mr. Stephens declared he was out of politics, and so it isn’s likely that the state ever will be fortunate enough to have him act as her lieu- tenant governor. THE NORTH'S GREAT CHANCE. The Minnesota state fair should mean much to this part of the state this year. In many parts of Minne- sota the crops have been poor while in this district never have they been more abundant. This, together with the campaign of publicity which has been waged by the Northern Minne- sota Development association and otherwise, has aroused interest in our lands, thus making this the physchological moment in which to show by actual exhibits what can be done on soil here. So far as Beltra- mi county is concerned, she should make every effort to have the most representative display possible at the fair. A few days remain in which to complete the exhibit and every farm- er who has grains or grasses or other farm products which excel should see to it at once that samples are brought to Bemidji for shipment to Hamline. Beltrami has an opportunity to beat them all. Do your share in helping to win the prize. A CHANCE TO EARN $50,000. If you wish to earn $50,000 for a few days easy work buy, or make, an aeroplane; take it to New York, sit down in the front seat, turn its nose | toward San Francisco, pour in the gasoline, open the throttle and keep her going until you brush against the sea gulls at the Golden Gate. William Randolph Hearst has of- fered such a prize to the birdman who first makes a trans-continental trip—and someone will beat you to it it you don’t hurry up. It probably will not be Atwood who glided through the air from St. Louis to New York, because he has decided that while aeroplanes are all right in their place there is the deuce to pay the minute they begin to get out of place. But with the progress that is be- ing made, it can only be a question of time until some aviator will skim up the Hudson, on over the Chicago skyscrapers, the prairies of the west and then soaring upwards, dart by the mighty crags of the Rocky Moun- tains, on and on until the roar of the Pacific drowns the clatter of the ar- tificial’ bird. R R R R R AR R R ORI O R © WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY @ B R R R RO R R R R R As in Days of 0ld. A number<of boys .got into Rev. George Michael’s melon patch re- cently and maliciously destroyed a large quantity of the melons. There are a number of youngsters in Walk- er who appear to take a certain de- light in the destruction of property and a good, substantial object lesson in the shape of a reform school train: ing for a few of them would not be amiss.—Walker Pilot. Dunn a Bum Prophet.- Bob Dunn makes the prediction that Mister Eberhart will be re-elect- ed governor of .Minnesota. The Princeton statesman also predicted, once upon a time, that Bob Dunn would be elected governor of Minne- sota, but he wasn’t not by several jumps.—Messaba Ore.’ Still Love “Pussyfoot.” If you can save $1,000° on dogs under the commission form, how much could you save then, for pity sakes, on cats?—Bemidji Pioneer. That depends. The pussyfoot we have in mind, we wouldn’t save a boot-jack to throw at him, for fear of insulting the jack—Cass Lake Times. Blizzards and Frozen Gizzards. The summer’s swiftly gliding by, it couldn’t well be fleeter; and soon we'll cease to curse the fly, and howl at the moskeeter. A few more busy, hustling weeks, and summer will be over! The frost will sparkle on the leeks, the sandburs and the clover! The sun behind the wintry clouds will sulk, its task forgetting; and we no more in wilted crowds will tell how hard we are sweating. And when the snow has hid the flowers, which now the fields are thronging, we'll talk of golden summer hours with tears of idle longing. And that’s the way we all are built; our heads are made of leather; in summer, when our collars wilt, we long for wintry weather. And when the fires of winter burn, when come the snow and blizzard, we wish that summer would return, to thaw our frozen giz- zard. I sometimies think that when we leave this world of sin and sor- row, where people sit around and grieve, and woe and anguish borrow, we'll weary of the harp and crown and of the snowy pinions, and seek a chance to amble down to these pro- fane dominions.—Walt Mason. An ordinary case of diarrhoea can, as a rule, be cured by a single dose of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. This remedy has no superior for bowel complains.

Bemidji, THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 1911 Why They Like Heinz Baked Beans So Well There is just enough difference between Heinz baked beans and all other brans of canned beansto make them the real favorites in most homes. Heinz beans are baked—not steam cooked—they are baked by dry heat which so breaks up the starch cells of the bean as to give it a very different taste. Heinz beans digest éasier, taste better and cost no This is just one of the 57 good things that Heinz prepares just a little better than any one else.
