More interest attaches to the name of the lake, “GitcheGumee, the Big- Sea-Water” of Longfellow’s “Song of Hiawatha.” To the French it was known as Lac Superieur from its position at the head of the Great Lakes. Lake county was established in 1856. *h ok kok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok kR K * %k kK ok ok k ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ko ko k& EEKEE KKK KKK KX MEMORIAL DAY. Governor J. A. A. Burnquist today issued his proclamation of May 30, 1916, as Memorial day. The procla- tion follows: It is now more than half a century since the close of that terrible con- flict in which so many gave up their lives upon the field of battle for the preservation of this nation and the perpetuation of that liberty for which it stands. Comparatively few of those who participated in the great struggle of that period of American history are today alive. Most of them are sleeping in the land they helped to make free and in the re- united country for which they were willing to die. The immortal service which the soldiers of the Civil War rendered to all of us, who in our generation are enjoying the results of their sacrifices, together with the valor of those who fought in the Spanish-American war for a right- eous cause, can never be forgotten by the patriotic people of a grateful re- public. Let us, therefore, on Memorial Day, Tuesday, May 30, 1916, close our public buildings, schools, stores, fac- tories and other places of business, and upon that day suspend labor of all kinds, in order that we may hold appropriate memorial exercises, dec- orate the graves of the heroic dead, and again show our gratitude to them who in the days when our country was in great danger so bravely went forth to its defense. Heretofore the children of our schools have been addressed by the old veterans on the Friday preceding Memorial Day, but this year, by rea- son of the large decrease in their number and on account of the age of those who remain, a special request comes from them. that our state and municipal authorities and our citi- zens generally volunteer their ser- vices for this particular purpose. All, therefore, are hereby especially urged to-assist in perpetuating this patriotic custom, inaugurated by the |Z Grand Army of the Republic, to the end that every school in the state may be visited and the future guardians of the nation be inspired with the spirit of true loyalty and patriotism. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great: Seal of the State to be hereto affixed, at the Capitol, in the City of St. Paul, this 16th day of May, 1916. J. A. A. BURNQUIST, ‘Governor. Attest: JULIUS A. SCHMAHL, Secretary, of State.

In Ellis county, Texas, a meeting was held and a vote taken to decide how patrons of the rural mail service stood on the question of rural motor service for the old horse and buggy system. Out of 1,950 votes, 1,879 favored the horse vehicle and 71 fa- vored the retention of the new motor service. No real candidate has appeared to contest with Wilson for the Demo- cratic presidential nomination, but there have been tests, nevertheless, which show that he is not without opposition in his own party. It is nowhere evident that Wilson is hold- ing his strength of four years ago. The present cold, wet weather is causing more grievances than you can imagine. It is holding up the work »n Bemidji’'s new baseball park and the season will probably not open on Memorial day as has been planned. The Ruggles’ timber proposition and the Nymore-Second street high- way appear to be as bothersome to the City of Bemidji as is the Mex- ican situation to the Federal govern- ment. Reports from every point in the Sixth district favor C. B. Buckman for congressman. His previous ex- perience and his known ability give him a clear advantage. Aw, quit your kickin’ in regard to the weather. It isn’t half as bad here as it is in other districts. In Deadwood, S. D., snow is nearly two feet deep on the level. Democracy spells derision abroad and depression at home, says a Wash- ington correspondent.
