Bemidji will hold a Pay-Up week, Feb. 21 to 26. During a Pay-Up week recently in a western city the editor of one of the papers sent out a reporter to in- terview some of the merchants. “It works, this pay-up idea you have been boosting,” said one of the leading tradesmen. “I have had quite a number call and pay their accounts thus early in the game, which is an unusual occurrence, and all were happy and sweet when it was over. If it keeps up the rest of the week as it has started I will be tremendously pleased.” Another business man said: “It’s the most practicable idea that was ever advocated, and we ought to show our appreciation by presenting the editor a testimonial of some sort.” One man who owed several out- standing accounts said: ‘“‘After I had called on the people I owe I made out a list and added up my indebt- edness. After counting my cash I went back and made payments on each one. This pay-up game has set me thinking. I am going to make it pay-up day the first of every month until 1 get square with everybody, and then T expect to keep square by paying my accounts promptly.” ‘Thé Pay-Up' ‘Week proposition wherever it has been tried has been a splendid success. It has boomed businéss tremendously. If that re- sult has been attained elsewhere it can be attained here. This commu- nity is as progressive as any other. The movement for Pay-Up Week is becoming national. This place should not be behind the times. Pay-Up Week is a progressive pro- position. Be progressive. Do your part in the Pay-Up Week program.

In New York there is a persistent and widespread public demand that publicity be given to the ‘expense ac- counts of state officials who went to the San Francisco exposition. Now it would be just like some heartless advocate of “pitiless publicity” to ask that similar disclosures be made re- garding Federal officials and em- ployeS who ‘made the trip and took advantage of the opportunity to tell the American people of the wonderful achievements of this administration. The people of the United States are weary of the utter futility which for three years has marked the coun- try’s dealing with Mexico. During the past two weeks nearly fifty Am- erican lives have been sacrificed to the administration’s ignominious Méxican''policy. The people want a changé’of policy—a chanige back to stdlwdrt Americanism, to the Amer- i¢dnisi® whichi ‘demands complete re- spéet’Tor our ‘flagand our citizen- ship. Members of automobile associa- tions staté that unless something hap- pens to ‘stop the war it is going to beé’ practically impossible to get met- als of various kinds sufficient to build the necessary motor cars to supply the demand: '“Alreddy war ordérs have taken' precederice over thpse of the automobile miakers and 'the' delivery of cars “is"affected. - Nohie 'of the com- panies ‘will°guarantee ‘early delivery of “a’car. The Baudette Region has an- nounced its intention of supporting C."B."Buckman for congressman of the Sixth congressional district.” A wiser seléction could not be made as Mr."Buckman is the most fitted for the position of the candidates that have alréady filed and of those whom it is rumored may fite.

KKK KKK KK EXERE Much has been said of late con- cerning the couuly opuon situation in Beltrami county Newspnpers published in the southern part of lhe county''have hinted that p\lbllc oyln- ion in this part was changing in fa- vor of county option, and that as a result an election’ would be called. In denying that ‘theré”is any senti- ment in ‘favor of an’ election’ ‘at thxs time, the Region Helievés 'that it 'is voicing the the opinion of the greal majority of the citizens of Northern Beltrami county. Condifions '“that were against the holding' of an elec- tion last winter have not changed. Less than a mile away are licensed saloons in“Canada, and a ¢ounty op- tion election would mean that they would get the trade instead of the sa- loons in Baudette and ‘Spooner. The majority of our citizens, Wwe believe, that if we must have drinking, it is better to be regulated than to have in force the dangerous custom of voted out of Baudette and Spooner. We would have all the bad effects of the trade without having an opportu-' nity to regulate it. above, the idea of spending several thousand dollars on a county option jority of the residents of this dis- trict. The Region has not discussed this question before for the reason that up to the first of the year there was a possibility that the hotels at Rainy River would lose their licenses. If that had occurred there would have been. little objection to closing the saloons in Baudette and Spooner. That possibility has passed, how- ever, and under the circumstances it would not be wise to go to the trou- ble of holding’ an election, which WONDERFUL REMEDY IN TIME T SAVE WOMAN Mrs, Williams Gets on Way to Health After ‘First ‘Dose of * Treatment.
