The United States Census depart- ment at Washington has just issued a bulletin dealing with the owmer- ship of Beltrami county homes. The ir:portant facts contained in the bul- letin relatives to this county are as follows: There are 4,434 homes in Bel- trami county. Of this number farm homes. One thousand three hundred and ten of the farm homes are owned by their occupants and are free of mortgaged incumb- rance. The mortgaged farm homes number 407. Renters occupy 47 farm homes in this county. Out of a total of 4,434 homes in the county, 2,635 are urban homes. There are 1,414 urban home owners in the county. Of this number mortgaged. One thousand one hundred and fifty of the urban owned homes are free of incumbrance. There are 1,077 rented urban homes in the county. The census enumerators were un- able to secure data pertaining to the ownership of a small percentage of both the rural and urban homes in this county. 1,799 are 235 are Result of Frequent Change. An official of the Federal Census bureau, in discussing the report re- cently issued by the government, dealing with the term of occupancy of farms in the United States, baid: “This frequency of moving from farm to farm, or instability of occupancy, very likely, forms one of the chief causes for the decline of rural pros- perity, or is a hindrance to greater progress. Frequency of removal of farmers results in a general shift- lessness; the roads and bridges are generally in a poor condition because the farmers, moving at frequent per- iods, are not particularly interested in their upkeep. Farm buildings of such farms are not usually kept in good repair, as theé farmer who is about to move will leaye the repairs for the next tenant to make. The same reasons will apply for lack uf interest by the unstable farmer in the schools, churches and general welfare of the community. They move frequently; they do not remain on a farm long enough to get the best results from it, consequently they are usually in a poor financial condition.” The Reason Why. The Kelliher Tribune takes us to task for not supporting Wilson, for senator and gives as the only reason that he is a newspaper, man. The News does not with to see nonentities in official positions no matter wheth- er they are editors or dog catchers. We wish to see able men, there, men who are a ciedit to themselves as well as the position they seek. That's why.—Northern News.

This is reckoned as one of Lee’s strong planks and he makes no bones about admitting it, either. —Grant Falls Tribune. In his letter Mr. Hammond talks about the need of economy in this state. There is no question on that point, but there is a question as to whether Mr. Hammond is the man to secure it. As a member of the ways and means committee of con- gress he is advocating a heavy war tax to make up for the loss of reven- ues. He does not seem to realize that the present congress had in- creased the expenditures of the na- tion nearly two hundred millions of dollars over that of any other con- gress in the history of the nation.— Winnebago Enterprise. - It is expected that the dredging of the Suez canal to a depth of 39 feet will be completed early next year.
