The first article by Mr. Roosevelt will afipear in the February issue of the Metropolitan and will give the true history of the acquisition of the Panama Canal and deal with the administration’s pres- ent attitude toward Colombia. Other articles will follow on such subjects as the Colorado mining situation, and its bearing on our economic policy, the need of military preparedness for the United States, the Pork Barrel, the Mexican situation, and other im- “portant subjects which can be dealt with by Mr. Roosevelt in the most au- thoritative manner. “Bemidji, As It Is Today.” Collier’s Weekly, in publishing the $500 prize story, = “The , Hospital Ticket,” dealt Bemidji a severe blow and in a most unjust manner, and its editor should not delay in informing subscribers, and they total about one million, of the true conditions which now surround this city. ‘While Bemidji, in its infancy, and during the period of extensive log- ging operations, might have been as pictured in Collier’s, the Bemidji of today represents a most drastic con- trast.
