H. Turrittin, covering the conditions of the state banks in Minnesota at the close of business Sept. 2. On that date 940 banks made an- swer to the call against 874 a year ago. Statements throughout are the best in the history of the department. Resources and liabilities reported, total $197,165,013 against $183,- 526,880, Sept. 12, a year ago. The increase in resources is in excess of $14,000,000 and of liabilities, $13,- 000,000. The increase of the deposits in the banks and the increased prosperity of the banks themselves is just an- other argument in favor of “Dress Up” week which will be held in Be- midji Oct. 2 to 9. Special windows, live models, attractive advertisements and a showing of the best materials will be features of this new innova- tion. ¥ Next year will be a big year in Republican primaries. We have al- ready heard from Jim Peterson, Sam Iverson and Lieut. Gov: Burnquist that they would be candidates for governor. For the United States senatorship there will probably be Moses Clapp, A. O. Eberhart, Frank Kellog and George Simpson. And there are many more aspir- are yet to be heard. from. Owners and workmen understand each other when they work with each other, but there is something half pathetic in the spectacle of John Rockefeller, Jr., groping around Colorado mines to work, eat and talk with the men who have fallen into a state of social war with him. How- ever, we are of the opinion that his search will be of common benefit to all employers and employes. The Owatonna Tribune touches on a popular chord among the newspa- pers of the state when it says that although the Minnesota association was opposed to the granting of suf- frage to women, has mailed- many circulars to this paper, the Tribune has yet to see a real reason intro- duced by opponents of woman suf- rage. It is surprising what excellent jokes can be made at the expense of the Ford car when a fellow can’t af- ford to buy one. There are 391 hunters in Beltrami county who are being “trained to arms” and fit to man trenches with preparation. MINNESOTA CLUBWOMEN GIVE $1,661.85 TO RELIEF OF BELGIANS, SAYS REPORT Duluth, Minn., Sept. 24.—Mrs. C. M. Ferguson reported that Minnesota clubwomen gave through the M. F. W. C. committee on Belgian relief a total of $1,661.58. Among the clubs in the state which gave with particular generosity were the City Improvement league of Wa- seca which gave a carload of food and knitted goods; Rochester’s Altruistic club and the Civie league which gave $300 worth of food, Kknitted goods and clothing; the Detroit Li- brary club which gave $300 worth of clothing and the Art and History club, the Tourist club and Zetetic club of Mankato which together gave a carload of flour. COMMISSION GETS CONTROL OF FERGUS FALLS UTILITIES Fergus Falls, Minn., Sept. 24.— Judge Parsons handed down a deci- sion in the district court here vest- ing the sole management and control of the city water and light plants in the water and light commission. The charter says that the commis- sion shall manage the plant and fix the rates, but that it shall make re- quisition to the council for all sup- plies and the council shall allow all bills. The commission wished to in- stall water meters, and the council refused to approve the requisition on the ground that the people were opposed. The commission applied to the court for a writ of mandamus, and FREE AIR and E make no charge for the small at- tentions that of autoists. business. can give your car at increase its utility for business or pleasure.

INDIAN SKULLS ARE FOUND NEAR LAWNDALE Barnesville, Minn., Sept. 24.— ‘While digging in an old sandpit a few miles east of Lawndale, Wilkin county, Alfred Maligen, a farmer of that vicinity unearthed a number of human skulls and brought one of them: and a number of jaw bones into this city today. " The others crumbled when handled. Besides the bones was found an old Indian stone hammer. Maligen discards the theory that the pit was once an Indian burying ground but thinks the bodies—presu- mably Indians—were carried to the pit by high waters and ledged there. The size of the jaw bones give rise to the opinion that the bones are those of Indians. CHILD WALKS AND SOBS * Minneapolis, Minn‘,' Sept. 24.— Police today admitted their inability to secure a satisfactory clue to the murder of Mrs. R. M. Heineke, mur- dered in her home. Her husband sought to surprise her by slipping into the house un- announced, and fell over her dead body, over which their 19 months’ old baby lay sobbing, wet with its mother’s blood. Several days ago Mrs. Heineke told her father a strange man -at- tempted to engage her in a conver- sation at her home. —ATTEND— Day and Night to you. of this.
