MARTIN COUNTY Three different explana- tions have been offered as to the origin of the name of this county, established in 1857. The most plausible of these is that the name was proposed by General Sibley in honor of his friend, Morgan Lewis Martin of Green Bay, Wis,, who was a delegate in con- gress from Wisconsin Terri- tory in 1846 and who, on De- cember 23 of that year, in- troduced a bill for the organi- zation of Minnesota Terri- tory. Martin was a resident of Green Bay from 1827 to 1887 and was prominently identified with the history of ‘Wisconsin. It has been as- serted that the county was named in honor of Hon. Mar- tin McLeod, but McLeod county having been named in his honor the previous year, makes this quite impossible. It is possible, however, that it was named in honor of Henry Martin, a Connecticut man, who purchased for him- self and his associates about two thousand acres of land in southwestern Minnesota in 1856, and visited the chain of lakes in Martin county on hunting and fishing expedi- tions. One of these lakes was unquestionably named for him.

Pendergast of Bemidji will be re- nominated. Representative Pendergast is con- ducting his campaign on his past record. Mr. Pendergast served on the state grain force two years from April, 1899. He 'was nominated for lieutenant governor on the Democratie ticket in 1906, réceiving 103,000 votes. He served'as custodian of the old capitol from 1908 to 1911. Since that time he has been en- gaged -in business in Bemidji. Representative Pendergast is an| able man. Theodore Roosevelt spoke the thoughts of many people in the United States when he said in New York, Monday: ‘“‘Any man at this time of:crisis who is'not aggressively, openly and specifically for Ameriean- im and preparedness is-against them, and every ‘patriot should treat public (] sefvants’on this basis.” — Would' the‘contending countries be ‘very ‘angty if the rest of the world pulléd them dpart and told thém'to behave themselves {or the sake of civilization? o S, The 1916 ‘bageball season will open in:Bemidji next Tuesday 'and asa re- sult many a Bemidji boy is aspiring to be a great baseball pitcher some day.

W. Griffith, the producer, obeyed the directions of military experts who mapped out the{ - movements of the Union and Confed- erate armies as described in the ae- curate reports in the possession of the United States govermmient. In fdct, many weeks were spent in the acquirement of data for the staging of the battle scenes. Many old soldiers have witnessed and approved of these reproductions, saying that they recalled with vivid impressiveness 'the hazardous exper- iences which they endured in army service. Portions impress one with a last- ing sense of the suffering due to hunger, showing Confedérate soldiers on the firing line eating sparingly of short rations of parched ‘corn—-in an- other, the ‘capture of a supply train NO REASON FOR IT When Bemidji Citizens Show a Way. There can be 'no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tor- tures of an aching back, the annoy- dnce’of urinary disorders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what a Be- midji citizen says: P. M. Dicaire, grocer, 1101 Irvine says: “I was af- fiicted for fifteen years with kidney trouble. I had pain in the small of my back and twinges-when stooping: or lifting. My back also ached at night. I had dizzy spells and after stooping, my sight became blurred. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills-and they brought me great relief.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—gét Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Dicaire had.
