Minnesotans are awakening to the great summer resort advantages this state has to offer and in this connec- tion the Grand Rapids Herald-Review says: An industry is commonly spoken of in reference to any productive business which employs persons and makes a profit out of a finished ar- Al ticle—thus a manufactory, mine, farm or similar productive enterprise, is classed among the industries of the country. Up to the present time the summer or winter resorts of this country have not been classified { amopg the industries thereof, al- though they form a great source of [ productive wealth in the regions ¥ b where they have been developed ex- 1 tensively. Take Palm Beach, and 1 other resorts of Florida, and a great many of the big seashore resorts of both coasts which have become in- dustries, so to speak, and may very properly be classed as such. It is well known to some people | that.the most famous of the seashore { and mountain resorts of this country { have been systematically developed and built up by civic organizations 4 eo-operating with the railroads and § individuals owning and controlling the resorts themselves. The surf bathing along fine beaches, invigor- ating climate, the wonderful scenic beauties of the mountains—not one § of the advantages has been sufficient | to develop the resort business with- | out the systematic organization of i the men who expected to reap the benefit. Now just who does reap the benefit from a well developed resort that is patronized by hundreds and thou- sands during summer &nd winter in this 'and foreign countries? Always first the farms which raise the sup- plies to feed the guests, the business houses that cater to them, the rail- roads and mnext the hotels which en- tertain them. Eventually, everyone 4inthe community shares in this benefit. Let us bring this down home- to us here in Itasca county, and see what we have and what can be done by organizing to develop the resort business, and advertising our region to the outside world. We have the natural beauties of forest and stream, with a most ad- mirable climate and the finest fishing to be found in the world. These things represent our capital, hitherto and even now, lying idle, undeveloped and unproductive. We have seen that without any help from us, these splendid attractions—the gifts of nature, have already brought people to our county of their own accord. How much greater this new in- dustry will become, all to the profit of the people here and the county it- self; if it is taken in hand and -prop- erly developed as any other business is: handled, can easily be seen. Other | counties around us are waking up'to these wonderful advan- g tages. Beltrami county is going in- i to a great campaign to develop and i advertise her resort advantages, and i 2 the railroad company has signified a willingness to join hands in the en- 3 terprise. Shall we of Itasca county awake to this great industry right within' our gates? And who ~will take the- initiative in getting our business:people together for organi- 2ation? % PSSR TS E L E L8 R % EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS ¥ PP T UL ELCEE RS S S Don't’ worry.

T The Duluth Herald thinks it would be better if the governor of the state had a cabinet, picked by himself, in- stead of being surrounded by a bunch ‘of recalcitrant state officials, elected by the people just as he himself was elected. That, we should say, would depend largely upon who the gover- nor happened to be. The Herald ar- gues that such a course would place all the responsibility for the state government on one person. But what good would that do? A misfit governor, such as people sometimes elect by mistake, surrounded by a number of political creditors in the shape of hold-overs and others, could do a ot of harm before the expiration of his term.—Red Wing Eagle. aiges The Minneapolis Journal thinks Woodrow Wilson is greater than his party. We don’t believe it; we don’t believe any party leader has been greater than his party. Whatever good things have been accomplished by Woodrow Wilson, have been done in the name and in_ the spirit of de- mocracy, and the inspiration to do them has come from the struggles, ‘labors and sacrifices of millions of democrats for many years. In so far as the president reaches out toward the ideals which have inspired these ‘millions, so far is he their exponent, but he is not greater than they. That is ridiculous. It is king worship, out of place in a free country, and is uttered by those who hope the president may not be greater, but different.—Little Falls Herald. MINNESOTA SCHOOLS PRAISED BY EXPERT By J. 0. KNOTT. United States Bureau of Education. Minnesota has swung into the edu- ‘cational limelight through the pub- lication of a bulletin, about-to be issued by the United States Bureau of Education, on the rural school system of Minnesota. Dr. D. P. Claxton, commissioner of education, says, “Minnesota has made remarkable progress in improving the efficiency of its rural schools.” Investigated by Foght. He detailed Harold W. Foght, one of the bureau’s specials in rural education, to go to. Minnesota and study its rural schools. The bulletin about to be issued contains the re- sult of Mr. Foght’s investigations. Foster Rural Schocls. “Minnesota is an agricultural state,” says Mr. Foght, ‘‘and appra- clates the value of a system of schools organized to prepare scientific agri- culturists and men and women to take their places in community af- fairs. The laws providing for con- solidation and association for the several kinds of state aid all aim at fostering real rural schools.” “Encourages Centralization. Speaking of the one-teacher schools of the state, Mr. Foght says: ‘“While the one-teacher schools of Minnesota are as efficient as those in other states, they have proved unable to meet the needs of modern farming. ““As a consequence, the state dis- courages all further deceantralization of school effort. Minnesota now en- courages centralization of schools.” County is Unit. “Experience in Minnesota,” says the report, “seems to point to the county as the natural unit of school organization wherever it is the unit for civic administration. ‘“Minnesota advocates of this sys- tem would elect a non-partisan board: of education of, for example, three members from over thé couwnty large, or by eleetion disiricts—timee | or more in the county, according to the size of the board.. - This - board- should then choose a: professionalisu< perintendent.’” Officials Complimented, A high compliment is paid" the: businesslike administration of boards and superintendents. Equal Opportunity Given. Of the board of management ha says: ‘‘These large districts are marked by a varied commmnity life. To-egualize matters so as to-give the most recent ‘squatter’ all educational advantages of the established lumber king is the working problem of the central hoard of education.” KE KK KA KKK KKK KKK * WILTON 2 * KKK KKK KKK KKK KY Mrs. Melvin Dahl of Trail, Minn,, has been visiting with friends and realtives at Wilton and Bemidji:for the past couple of weeks.
