McCualg did not get his two hun- dred majority but he’s satisfied. Two new members were elected to the council, Lahr from the first ward |- and Foucault from the third., Both will make good alderman. The re-election of Treasurer Rhea, Clerk Stein, Assessor Lloyd and Al- dermen Smart and Miller shows that the citizens of Bemidji appreciate their competent service as officials. They have made good. Another surprising vote was that of Hannah in the saloon ward. Looks as though his law enforcement ad- ministrotion was not to the liking of the saloon men. His re-eleétion was deserving. He has made one of the best mayors Bemidjl has ever had and in naming him over Hannah the voters of the city used good judge- ment. Walkerites are peeved because some of the city dalies have been an- nouncing that Joe Graves, the twir- ler recently signed by Connie Mack, was born in Brainerd, the home of Bush and Bender. ‘Walker claims that Graves is a product of that city, and was merely loaned to Brainerd to help them out when in need of a winning pitcher. Charile Scheers, editor of the Ake- ley Tribune has been sent to Illinois by the Hubbard county commission- ers, as a special immigration ' com- missioner. He will make a personal campaign among those interested in farming, especially tenant farmers. The plan is the outcome of a sug- gestion made at the last meeting of ‘the Northern Minnesota Develop- ment association held in this city. Immigration Commissioner Sherman is co-operating with Mr. Scheers in the scheme. It surely must have been a source of satisfaction to the citizens of Be- midji, especially the “dry” advocates, to be able to put the “scare” into the “wéts” to’such an extént that it had them all working over time. Think of it. The first time this ques- tion has ever been submitted to a vote of the people in this city and then to come within 122 of turning the trick. It goes to show just one thing and that is that the saloons of Bemidi must be cut down materially during the coming year. The city council also has a duty to perform. It Dledged itself to cut the salons down to seventeen during the past year. It didn’t do it. The result was that it lost the confidence of the public, If it does not accomplish this in some form or another the coming year, we predict different results the next time the no-license. question comes up. ’Ijhe"heo“ple ‘will ‘riot stand to be fooled all’ the time. They want to be treated fairly and-will insist upon a squate deal from the ' servants whom they place in office. It re- mains for the new council to see that they get it, - liiil{i#iii{ll#ll ¥ " EDITORIAL EXPIDSIONS * C‘kiiii‘liikf‘l#*** The -Cass. Lake Times is authority for the mtement that P. H. McGar- ry 'will have the support of every newspaper in Cass county in his can- didacy for the state senate. It serves Pat t, a booster like him should have the support of every newspaper in his district and then some—and he'll get it too.—Brainerd Dispatch. —id The Fairmont Sentinel . (F. A. Day). is of the opinion that Senator T. L. Cashman, on a county option platform, is the man of the hour, the only one who can beat D. W. Lawler Mr. Day is rather rash in his politi- cdl’ gusses. We have had one county option candidate for Governor—re- sult, defeat by over 60,000. Again, it | .is conceding to Mr. Lawler more than he deserves, to say that there is only one Democrat’ who can’ defeat him.—St, Cloud Times. It it is true, as charged, that five of the victims of the récent Kelliher thotel fire were intoxicat : mu h “quoted theory ‘ takes care of fools And:irun n met and 1 talities, is exploded. In the opinion of the investigating state fire mar- shal, tha five victims who lost /their lives were all is a drunken condition, Those who “were sober ‘Wwere enable to get out and it isbelleved the others could have got out also had they been sober. As a temperance sermon this fact permits of no argument and needs ' mo explanation—Fairmont Sentinel Practical Fashion Hints By Allce Gibson Three Designs For Guest Towels. Dainty little towels of the finest of huckaback are now among the neces: sary linens of every housekeeper. These are for the guest who comes to lunch or dinner or tea after a set of tennis and needs a towel which will be used only once. fancy weaves of huckaback for mak- ing these little towels, and you will find stripes, pretty little all-over fig- ures, as well as the plain qualities at the linen counter. The 15 or 18-inch widths are most practical, for although you can buy the 12 and 14-inch widths these towels are almost too small to be useful. If you expect to finish the ends of the towels with one-inch hem- stitched hems, cut the material in 28- inch lengths, while if scalloping is to be used on the ends, it may be cut in 27-Inch lengths. The pattern includes designs for stamping three towels and scalloping for finishing both ends of’all three. A set of these towels would be an appro- priate gift for the bride’s linen shower, and if you are planning to make some- thing for the Easter church fair these will surely be salable. Towels such as these can be made to sell for about one dollar and a half each, according to the amount of work. Initials may be used for marking these towels and you will find either the one-inch script or block style ap- propriate. The embroidering of the de- sign on the towels should be done in solid . work which may be combined with punched work or French dots. Directions and diagrams for the stitch- es are given on each pattern envelope. This Is a Perfect Pattern. Guaranteed hot iron transfer pat- terns for stamping three towels, No. 14629, can be supplied on receipt of price, 10 cents.

The wheelbarrow is the most com- mon medium of transportation. in Shantung. The load is balanced about the wheel so that the workman does not hive to carry u portion of the load as is the case’ with “the 'American wheelbarrow. “Some wheelbarrows have but ove push man, some have a pulling man as well; some have one, two and three donkeys to aid in the pulling'and some are equipped with a sail"to obtain the help of favorable winds. ' The equipment depends upon the load carried, the maximum load being dbout a ton. Transportation by wheelbarrow is from five to eight times as expensive as transportation by rail in this province. Thus the na- tive methods of Tand transportation, even with' fabor recaiving a- wage of less than 10 cents gold-a day, are cost- ly, disproportionately so as compared with the prices of other commodities. Yet Shantung has tens of thousands of wheelbarrows engaged in traffic.

No country ‘will acknowledge that Hx was f shores dre thie birthplace of the flend, and the following are a rew of the names given this unowned diseas: In Russiu it is called Siberian and in Siberia Chinese fever. people of Brazil know it by the nun\e of polka fever, or zamporina. “La grippe” is the term generally in lli;e in France; also “la coquette” and. Span- ish catarrh. Germans define it as “schafkrank- heit” (sheep’s disease). “Malattla te- desca” (German sickness) is the epithet in use in Italy, while Spaniards name it “influencia rusa™ and “trancazo’ (n blow with a bar). Very apt is the Swedish definition— “snufsjuka” and “snuff fever.” —Our own deserlnflon—lnfluenu—-wu taken from the elghteenth century Ital- ian writers, who spoke of “una influ- enza di freddo” (influence of cold).
