And let your gate sliep in the house. | And, by the way, the gate will come as near to sleeping as any- thing else. Judge Stanton is apt Lo conclude that it is better to be a real judge than a maybe governor. The United States flag has been barred by Canada but the American dollar still gets the glad hand. And another one of life’s disap- pointments is to get up these frosty mornings and discover that the hard coal fire is out. It must not be supposed that all men are wearing the new fuzzy hats. Some of them, remembering the elec- tion next year, insist on the buzzy bonnets, SHE WEEPS. “Somebody is kidding me,” today chirped the dove of peace. Just a few days ago President Taft made an eloquent and highly com- mendable plea for world wide peace. Today in the harbor of New York 102 American war vessels represent- ing an expenditure of three hundred million dollars point their guns in defiance at the nations of the world. It was on the flagstaff of the great fleet’s biggest fighter thai the dove of-peace blinked its eyes early this morning and cooed a couple of times. “Someone is kidding me."” And none came to allay birdie’s suspicions. BOYS, BE GOOD. Although tonight is Fallowe'en, boys of Bemidji be good. Most any grown man w:ll tell you that it doesn’t pay to cut capers. They know from experieace and a quarter of a century from now you will be handing down the advice. When you meet tonight in the shadows of the back streets and be- gin to lay your plans, just remem- ber that it isn’t nice at all to put tick-tacks ~on windows; besides if you are not careful you may be caught and if you are not like as not the rig will be drumming away on the window of some old couple that couldn’t hear a Kansas cyclone if it were banging against the glass. Nor is it the proper thing to steal a beer sign and put it on the church. they were your ages but some of them ‘got the same sort of woodshed treat- ment that is in store for some of you. And if the spirit of the occasion Ve | insists that you must lead torth from her justly earned nightly nap the family cow, don’t be guilty of tak- ing poor old bossy to the ‘school house to lock her up in the recitation room. That trick has been executed many times but it never has shone as a bright achievement in the chron- icles of history. . Put- wheelbarrows on top of high buildings if you must, steal gates and topple over small buildings and de- stroy an unknown amouut of other property and good tempers by drag- ging all dragable articles from where they belong to where they do not be- long, but remembér this, that the world is improving and that you need not be quite so foolish or be quite so wanton in your destructiveness as was your now sobered dad. To the adult population we only can sigh, “boys will be boys,” and warn you to be prepared for the worst. COOOROC OO D DOP e ® Politics and Politicians. © R R R R R R R Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles, U. S. A, retiréd, is mentioned in some quarters for second place on the Democratic national ticket. Governor George W.

Hobson of “Merrimac” fame, will probably try for the Democratic nomination for governor of Alabama.

Mr. Livingston was defeated for renomination at the last election, after a service of twenty years in the lower house. William G. McAdoo, builder of the New York subway, is anunounced as the principal speaker at a meeting to be held in Atlanta hext month to launch a Woodfow Wilson presiden- tial movement for the State of Geor- gia. In a recent interview Governor Mann of Virginia expressed the opin- ion that the women of his State will be granted the right of sutfrage with- in the next ten years and possibly much sooner. Victor L. Berger, the sole repre- sentative of the Socialists in Con- gress, believes that representatives of his party will be returned from Min- nesota, Ohio, Oklahoma, North Da- kota, and one or two other States in the next congressional elections. The Wisconsin branch of the Na- tional Progressive League is arrang- ing to hold a meeting in Milwaukee early in December for the purpose of indorsing the candidacy of Senator La Follette for the Republican presi- dential nomination.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—One hun- dred and two vessels of the American Navy, the largest fleet ever assem- bled under the Stars and Stripes in their gayest holiday dress, were re- viewed Dby Secretary of the Navy Meyer today, while hundreds of thou- sands, ashore and afloat, saw the spectacle. The aggregate tonnage of the assembled war vessels was over one-half million as compared with less than one-third of this total pres- ent at the naval review by President Roosevelt in Hampton Roads five years ago. The aggregation of Am- erican dreadnoughts and smaller sis- ters taking part in today’s spectacle represented approximately the huge outlay of $300,000,000. £ Dressed from stem to ‘stern in a riot of bunting, the gray lines of the warships, with a background formed by the Palisades, beautifu} in the au- tumn foliage, made a magnificent spectacle as viewed from Riverside Park and other points of vantage on the Manhattan side of the river. On the broad bosom of the Hudson the vessels floated at anchor in three columns each eight miles long, stretching from a point about oppo- site Fifty-seventh street up the river R R R R R IR OROR RS > COMMUNICATIONS. be PPOCOOOOOOOHO®G O E. E. Rain, one of the oldest busi- ness men of Sheylin died at the Roch- ester hospital of cancer of the mouth on Saturday, Oct. 14, 1811. Age 56 years, 7 months, 8 days. His oldest son, C. E. Rain was with him to the last. The funeral was held at the Con- gregational church on Wednesday, Oct. 18, Rev. Dodds of Bagley, offi- ciating. The church was beautifully decorated and the casket fairly bur- ied by fresh cut flowers. A quartet composed of Mr. T. E. Rider, Mrs. Rider, Mrs. E. Lindell and Mr. A. Johnson rendered various beautiful selections. Mr. Rain was born in Norway on March 6, 1855, moved with his par- ents to Fillmore county, Minn., when a child, where he grew tc manhood, and married Ella Skrukrud. From there he moved to Grafton, N. D., and was engaged in the hardware business for seven years, discontinu- ing his business there to take up the real estate business in St. Paul in which place he lived until 1896 when he went to Crookston. In 1898 he came to Shevlin where he has been successfuly engaged in business for the past thirteen years having re- tired from active business iast spring. Mr. Rain was a public epirited cit- izen and his pocket book was always open to domate to public improve- ments or to help the needy. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Ella Rain, and their children Edythe, Cora, Alf and Myrtle of Shevlin, Mrs. Jesse Lea of Bozeman, Mont., C. E. Rain of Caron, Sask., Canada; his brother, J. E.

All the while the ships kept up a roar of salutes. The ships’ sides were manned by bluejackets at attention, the quarterdecks were thronged with officers and marine guards, red-coat- ed ‘bands played the national airs, while “bo’suns’” whistles piped out the ‘order of the day. At-the complétion of. it§ progress through the anchored lines the May- flower took up its station near the flagship Connecticut. Rear Admiral Osterhaus, the commander of the fleet, and all of the flag and com- manding officers boarded the yacht and were received by Secretary Mey- er on the quarterdeck. As the offi- cers, in full dress uniform, came ov- er the side of the yacht, they were greeted by the blast of bugles, the ruffle of drums, and finally by a cor- dial handshake from the chief offi- ger of the Navy Department. Of the warships taking part in the great demonstration six were battle- ships of the dreadnought class. They were the Florida, Utah, Delaware, South Carolina, North Dakota and Michigan. In addition there was a splendid array of first-class battle- ships of the Connecticut type, num- bering, all told, six ships. the Min- nesota, New Hampshire, Kansas, Ver- mont, Louisiana and Connecticut. Adede to these were the battleships a typical ‘vessel of the great fleet which today passed in review, mmander of the fleet, as his battleship. There are 24 other ships of of the type represented by the Idaho and the Mississippi, five of tne Vir- ginia type, being, besides that ship, the Georgia, New Jersey, Nebraska, and Rhode Island, and of the Missou- ri type, including that vessel, the Ohio and the Maine. These are the ships upon which the United States would rely in time of war to do the actual fighting. The tonnage of these battleships is close |to 400,000, and the broadside of the ‘big guns they could fire would mean {a hail of 13-inch and 12-inch pro- jectiles weighing approximately 113, 000 pounds, while a broadside of all jguns of all sizes would total at least | 150,000 pounds of steel. the long lines of fighting-machines included the two big armored cruis- ers Washington and North Carolina, the fast-flying scout cruiser Salem, the unprotected cruisers Des Moines land San Francisco, a fleet of gun- boats, five flotillas of torpedo boat destroyers and torpedo boats, eight of |the newest and finest submarines in | the world, and a fleet of splendid na- val auxiliaries. 000 persons turned out to .view the great naval spectacle. All the vant- age points along both shores of the river were black with masses of peo- ple, while excursion craft of every tators as close to the vessels of the fleet as the alert little patrol boats would permit. During the early forenoon the trains arriving in the metropolis brought great crowds of sightseers from all over New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and even from distant points in the East and in New England.
