At that time a mayor, city clerk, city treasurer, as- sessor and four aldermen will be elected. All the present officials whose terms expire at that time are can- didates for re-election and they should be elected. They should re- ceive a flattering vote from the cit- izens of Bemidji and thereby shown that their work is appreciated. Never before in its history has Bemidji had such a good administra- tion as it has had during the past two years. The affairs of the city liave been run in a business-like way and officials have paid strict atten- tion to the city affairs. They have been fair to all and are conducting the affairs of the city in an econom- ical way. The present officials, if kept in office another term, will be able to accomplish more for the welfare of the city than if new men are elected. The present officials are conscien- tious, courteous and loyal to their constituents. We heartily recom- mend them for re-election. The men who should be returned to office are: Mayor William McCuaig. George Stein, city clerk. George W. Rhea, city treasurer. T. Lloyd, city assessor. J. P. Lahr, alderman First Ward, Tom Smart, alderman Second ‘Ward. Paul Foucault, alderman Third Ward. R. E. Miller, alderman Fourth ‘Ward. HEROES OF NATION? Here is President Wilson’s idea of a hero, expressed in a letter from him to Secretary Lane: “The rescuer of the bureau of mines who braves the poisonous gases and saves a miner from death; the coast guard who at the peril of his own life saves passengers of a|. helpless vessel from death; the sur- geon of the public health service who stops a dreaded scourge in its incipiency; the engineer who suc- ceeds in reducing the hazards of industry to its men, and the man who brings about better conditions of living among people, I consider all types of the hero who will be best regarded in the near future.” ENDORSE BUCKMAN. The Minneapolis Journal political writer seems to be looking for a scramble in the Sixth district con- gressional contest. “Nothing to it, Cheney,” says the Brainerd Daily Dispatch, ‘“‘the peo- ple are so well satisfied with the candidacy of C. B. Buckman that it will be next to impossible for even the Journal to stir up strife. Buck- man’s lead over the candidates men- tioned and those that have filed is so pronounced, even at this early stage in the ‘campaign, that those who have their ear to the ground hear the rumble, and this sentiment will grow. Mr. Buckman's well known equipment for the position has easily placed him in the running and made him the people’s candidate; and as such pledges of support have come to him unsolicited from every nook and corner of the district.” Mr. Buckman is receiving the sup- port of the majority of the newspa- pers in this district. Among the pa- | pers that have come out for him are the Eagle Bend News, the Hubbal;d County Journal, the Little Fallg Transcript, the Royalton Banner, the Kelliher Journal and the Baudette Region. Everywhere people are giv- ing him the best of support, which he deserves. The following from the Akeley Tribune is self-explanatory: “From the Akeley Tribune (A!l- gust, 1914): Martin Minster, senior vice commander of the Park Region department of the G. A. R., and a member of Co. A, Third Minnesota infantry, says he will support Con- gressman Buckman for the congres-; sional nomination before the primar- ies. He says that there is a senti- ment among the old soldiers in this vieinity that a man who has been so loyal to the old soldier who was loyal to “Old Glory” in those trying days of ’61, is a safe man to put in the official directory of this great government. . ‘Congressman Buck- man has been successful in 27 per cent of his pension cases, or 17 per -cent more than any other Minnesota sman,’ said: Mr. Minster. @xt best ‘average was 10 per nd that is considered very And remember, too, this is good. © Mr. Buckman’s first term, and the average representative is not ex- pected to accomplish a great deal during a first term in the house. In this Mr. Buckman has proven an exception to the rulé. He has ac- complished an immense amount of business with the postoffice depart- ment in securing rural routes; also with the land department in the protection of Northern Minnesota timber. We feel that he should be sent to congress, for another term, =|at least.” Every Employe Satisfied. Mr. Minster says that Congress- man Buckman will receive almost the entire vote of the men who fol- low logging and the woods, because so many of them have been em- ployed by Mr. Buckman, and Martin has been unable to find a single man |/—me—mr-—o - who has ever worked for the con-|f Twin City Stamp & gressman who does not speak of him ||f Il Stencil Co. rusver & Metatic in the highest terms as an employer. He has never been known to have given the working man the worst of it, every man leaving his employ | satisfied—and that is saying a great deal for a man who has employed thousands of men.” She Will Recover So her doctor said. Her friends and neighbors felt sure of it too. They have used Peruna themselves and know of its merits. That old cough that had worried her for years and years, for which she had taken all sorts of cough medicines, has disappeared. Peruna is doing the work. She will recover. Indeed, she has recovered. Her name is Mrs. Willlam Hohmann, 2764 Lincoln Ave., Chicago, lls. She had suffered with catarrh of the bronchial tubes and had a terrible cough ever since a child. As she got older she grew worse. She coughed both winter and sum- mer. Had to sit up at night. Could not sleep. “But all that has left me now. Peruna has cured me.” There are others, and there is a reason.
