A. O. Preus, state auditor. The table points out another commend- able point of the session .as the amount is $1,064,654.97 less than the 1913 appropriations and $492,- 699.73 less than the total for 1911. The figures for 1913 are $19,084,168. 57 and for 1911, $18,512,203.33. Again the state of Minnesota has stepped into national prominence among the dairy interests of the country; again it is demonstrated that the state is taking first rank in the industry, just recognition be- ing given the state by the election of Marcus D. Munn, St. Paul attorney and owner of a herd of American pure-bred Jersey cattle at Forest Lake, as president of the American Jersey Cattle club. Memorial Day. Winfield S. Hammond, governor of Minnesota, has issued his Memorial Day proclamation, setting aside May 31 as a legal holiday. He recalls the cruelties of war and the blessings of peace, and suggests that between 12 m. and 12:05 p. m., the bells of the city be tolled in honor of the soldiers dead and that all persons stand un- covered during ' that period. The governor's proclamation follows: “With each succeeding year the ranks of the Grand Army of the Re- public grow thinner; those men who, more than half a century ago, took up arms—not for the purpose of con- quest, but to preserve a government KEEEEEREXEH KRR X ¥ EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS * LR R E R R E RS S S SRR R TS About the only man who emerged from the late unpleasantness—other- wise the late session of the legisla- ture—with any particular credit, was Governor W.

The university| board of regents held an open meeting yesterday. This ‘was something unusual and the event headlines in the Twin Cities newspapers. The board of regents is a public body and it has no more right to meet in secret than the legislature has to exclude the public from its. deliberations. The same thing applies to the state nor- mal board.—Mankato Free Press. —— When Knute Nelson said in a pub- lic address that he would be glad to resign his seat in the senate pro- vided Governor Hammond would agree to appoint former Congressman Fred C. Stevens to succeed him, he paid a striking tribute to the St. Paul statesman’s character and ability, and we imagine that it will have a tendecy to center public interest in Mr. Stevens next year when the ques- tion of electing Moses Clapp’s suc- cessor comes up. Stevens and Uncle Knute would make a pretty strong team in the senate—Fergus Falls Free Press.

The first conference of this kind held last July, while not largely at- tended, revealed the possibilities of such meetings and developed a great deal of enthusiasm. As a result a very large attendance is expected this year and a program of interest has been prepared. The leading speaker will be tCharles Otis Bemies, of McClelland- town, Pennsylvania, a man who has made a careful study of the country life movement and who is a speaker in great demand by such conferences. Mr. Bemies is on the program for four lectures. On the program also are men who have done exceptional things in Min- nesota. Among these are E. H. Ed- wards, a pastor of Castle Rock, Min- nesota, and E. C. Hickman, of Byron, Minnesota. The former will discuss the rural church and country life; and the latter will lead the discus- sion on rural problems in general. A. M. Locker, secretary of the Min- |nesota Sunday School Union, will talk jof the Sunday school as a factor in rural life. The Boy Scout and Camp "HE world is filled with people who are not ‘‘sick-in bed”’ and still, neverthel 7 Fire Girls movements will be pre-| the Young Men’s Christidn’ associ: tion at University Farm. > That those in attendance at the conference may be brought into closest touch with some of the prac- tical ‘probléms: of irural life,. the pro- gram includes addresses and demon- strations by men of the faculty of the" College ‘and “School of Agricul- ture.:. Among'these are ‘Dean A. F. Woods, D. D. Mayne, Andrew Boss, T. L. Haecker, A. D. Wilson, W. G. Brierley, Francis Jager; E. C. Stak- man’ and LeRoy Cady. It is expect- ed-also that a: symposium -of opinion by the editors of:the state on rural life problems will be presented. The conférence; it ‘is believed, will attract many to University Farm at the ' time set. The best of accom- modations: can be had and those in attendance will be given not only a profitable; but = a. very enjoyable outing. Fuller/ information ‘can be had by addressing. A: F. Woods, Dean, De- partment: of Agriculture, University Farm, St. Paul. Nineteen of the 30 young women who are to be graduated as physic- ians from' the Women’s Medical col- lege in Philadelphia - this spring, have already received appiontments to hospitals as resident physicians. Boruch Jesselte, a Jewish woman, aged 110, who fled to Warsaw in front of the advancing Germans, also took refuge in the same city in 1812, fleeing before the troops of Napoleon. ‘The practice of planting cow peas on sugar lands between crops to in- crease the soil fertility is being sue- cessfully introduced in the Philip- pines. STRAIGHTFORWARD TESTIMONY Many Bemidji Citizens Have Profited By It. If you have backache, urinary troubles, days of dizziness, headaches or nervousness, strike at the seat of the trouble. These aré often the symptoms of weak kidneys and there is grave danger in delay. Doan’s Kidney Pills are especially prepared for kidney ailments—are endorsed by over 30,000 people. Your neighbors recommend this remedy—have proved its merit in many tests. Bemidji readers should take fresh courage in the straightforward testimony of a Bemidji citizen. Mrs. W. A. White, 1023 Dewey Ave., Bemidji, says: “One of the family keeps Doan’s Kidney Pills in the house and uses them whenever there is the least pain in the back or trouble from the kidneys and they never fail to bring: relief. The bene- fit this one received from Doan’s Kid- ney Pills leads him to hold a high opinion of them.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. White recommends. Foster- Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. Goming The famous Danish sented by J. H.

Each ensuing year this sim- ple but impressive ceremony has been observed by the Grand Army. This would seem a proper manner in which to show honor to our sol- diers who have died for home and country—not only by the remaining comrades, but by the public at large, joining in this silent testimonial of respect—especially at this time, when so many men in other lands are giv- ing their lives on the battlefield. ““We behold today one-half of the world drenched in blood in the great- est and most cruel war of history, and a silent tribute of respect—five minutes of ‘memories—cannot do otherwise than call to our minds the cruelties of war and the blessings of peace. 5 “It is fitting that we should join our fellow citizens in an appropriate memorial to our patriotic dead; therefore I, Winfield S.
