Watson C. Squire. Watson C. Squire, former United States senator from Washington, wag born in Cape Vincent, N. Y., May 18, 1838, and received his education at Wesleyan Universty. From his gra- duation until the outbreak of the In 1861 he enlisted as a private in a New York regiment and the next year he raised a company of Ohio Sharp shooters, afterward known as “Gen.

Representatives of the cial club are to meet with the city council Monday evening in order that the two bodies may get together on the Nymore road proposition. This matter has hung fire for too long and it is time that construc- tive action was taken at once. The road is one of the main arteries of travel to the city and should be kept in first class condition rather than allowing it to be a detriment to the bringing of loads into the city. 1t would be well for the mer- chants of Bemidji to be present at Commer- . the council meeting Monday night and assist with their advice. It is the merchants who are losing through the bad road. Their per- sonal interests enough to force action on the matter. The road is in bad shape and has been for some time. Instead of spending one or two hundred dol- lars a year in repairs that are not permanent, steps should be taken for paving or otherwise putting the road in first class condition for heavy hauls. His Back to the Wall. Governor Eberhart, with his boss Ed Smith, has his back to the wall and is fighting desperately to stave oft the certain defeat of renomina- tion that stares him in the face. The motives for calling an extra ses- sion of the legislature, seven months before a regular session is due, are at ‘least questionable. Last winter the people of the state made a practically unanimous de- mand for an extra session of the leg- islature to comsider progressive and equitable legislation. Governor Eberhart stated many times, even as late as March 28, when he wrote to W. T. Coe of the Hennepin County Progressive league, that the people of the state ‘did mot Svmt 0|the votes of the should be strong|§ session of the legislature and that he would not call one. - The governor heard no demand for that he has some motive other than the common good in taking action at this time. Does he hope to gain some measure of popularity by ap- ple? nomination by having passed a pri- mary law which will allow him to ride in with a small plurality while opposition are scattered among several candidates. Acting on the instructions from the state convention, the state cen- tral committee could have provided a preferential primary for the gov- ernorship. But a ‘direct primary is what the people of the state really want. The legislature should pass one and probably will, but let it be a modern law—one that will not allow a mere plurality of votes, cast by a minority of those voting, to nominate a candidate. Let it pro- vide that the nominee must be the choice of a madjority of the party. To get at this result, a provision for an extra session until his own chanc- |portionment are two things that the es for renomination became ‘desper- [state needs badly and should have at ate.

Mileage but no salaries are allowed the members for an extra session and it is hardly apportionment acts can be passed in a short session if the members get down to work. Eberhart has his back to the wall! He will bear watching that he and his bosses do not try to foist on the state laws which will allow the bosses to evade the will of the peo- ple and continue in power. The Lady in Walting. “Mother.” “Yes, dear.” “In this article nbout the Duke and Duchess of Connaught visiting Am- bassador Reld it speaks of a lady in walting. What does a lady in waiting do?” “I can’t tell you exactly, but I think &he is called a lady in waiting because she has to walt till the royal high- nesses get in before she gets aboard when they go automobiling.” Altruism. An ardent advocate during the re- cent campaign said: “A point upon which a great deal of weight has been placed is that women do not want the suffrage, and that it would be cruel te ‘impose it upon them. Tire cry about cruelty to women reminds me of a dialogue that passed between Johnnie and his mother: ‘Johnnie, your little sster has been hauling you on her sled for half an hour. Why don’t you get off and haul her?” ‘Mamma,’ said lit- tle Johnnie, ‘I am afraid she will take cold” ”—San Francisco Argonaut.

TWINS. A palr of delightful children are the little son and daughter of Burt B. Gorham of Ambler Heights. A stranger who has a weakness for kids met them on the street last week and spoke to them. “What's your name?” he asked the little boy. “Randolph Gorham,” answered the young man promptly. “And what 18 yours?” the girl was esked. “Phyllis Everleigh Gorham,” she piped up. “Ah, I see. So you are brother and ister?” The children looked at each other and laughed merrily. “Why, no,” they replied in chorus —‘“we’re twins!” A Man’s Way. “I hear the bride is having trouble already.” “Married only & month and having friction?” “Why, so they say.” “What is the trouble?” “Seems her husband wants to quit going to afternoon receptions and get back to his business.” Custom of the Country.
