NICOLLET COUNTY Many people doubtless sup- pose that county, established in 1853, was named for Jean Nicolet, who was probably the first white man to pene- trate as far west as Green Bay on Lake Michigan in 1634. As a matter of fact, however, both the county and Nicollet Island in the Missis- sippi at Minneapolis were named for Joseph Nicolas Nicollet, an Italian geogra- pher and explorer, who came to J1e United States in 1832. Under the direction of the war department of the United States government, Nicollet made a canoe voyage in 1836 from Fort Snelling to Lake Itasca and two years later went up the Minnesota river to the red pipestone quarry. As a result of these and other explorations he published in 1843 a map of the region now * x * x x * * * * * x x x * * x x x * x * * * . x x * * x X * x * * embraced in Minnesota, to- * gether with the eastern part * of North and South Dakota. % This map, considering the * time at which it was made, ¥ is a marvel of accuracy and % his report which accompanied % it, is a valuable historical % document, Nicollet’s first ¥ name is given incorrectly as % Jean in most of the early * works on Minnesota history. *® x HHK KK KKK KKK KKK FORGETFULNESS. The American people have one dis- tinct and besetting peculiarity. They think today and forget tomorrow. In this respect they probably are unlike any other nation of people on the face of the globe. To demonstrate the force of this statement you have but to glance at the pages of any of the great papers of the country. A sensation will be sprung today and it will be blazoned in big type over the first pages of the press. Unless its importance is of tremendous mag- nitude tomorrow will find it rele- gated to an obscure corner of the pa- per. It is forgotten. About the only exception to this rule is the news- paper story that is reeking and slimy with scandal. It holds the public eye and is played up to the limit. Preparedness is just now the great and overshadowing question before the American people. Everybody is talking about it, either for or against. A few months ago monster peace par- ades were held in the large cities, and war and preparedness against war were denounced on every hand. To- day you can find scarcely a man who can tell you even the month'in which one of these parades was held. They have been forgotten. A few weeks ago New York City held a monster preparedness parade, in which 145,- 000 people participated. Chicago im- mediately followed suit with one of the greatest parades in the history of this country, all in the interest of preparedness. Other cities, large and small, all over the country caught the fever and paraded for prepared- ness. Governors proclaimed Prepar- edness Days and everybody marched and shouted for preparedness. But these, too, will be forgotten, for it is"the way of the American people to do today and forget tomor- row. BACK TO FARM. Much of our future success in this country depends upon our ability to keep our young men on the farms and away from the cities. Statistics show that the farms are gradually becoming depopulated and’ the éitiss are being’ overorowded, with from * * * x * * x * * x * * * x * * * * x * * * x * * * * * * * * X * * x* * x * * x * * x * x * * * job. If our young men would stick velop the uncultivated acres, it would be only a question of time when the wealth, of this country would be doubled and trebled. Bright lights and white ways appeal to the young eye, but théy do not feed empty stomachs, The farm is a good place to be and a far better place to stay. JAMES JEROME HILL. This afternoon a funeral proces- sion went its way from St. Paul to North Oak farm, five miles away, and the remains of the late James Jerome Hill, “Empire Builder,” were laid: at rest. He was a -very great man indeed, a leader who served his country well in the period of rapid material ex- pansion. Starting at the bottom, he became a master of transportation. His vie- tories were won as a result of knowl- edge, hard work and faith. His death is one of the greatest losses- that the Northwest has ever had. ENTHUSIASM. Bemidji won the opening game of baseball yesterday. The Bemidji team will win a great many games this season with the present strong aggregation, and with good crowds of rooters. There was a good crowd at the game yesterday but—they did not root. They didn’t enter into the spirit of the game. The next time you go to a ball game gel into the spirit of the game. Whoop ’er up! Be a real fan and give the home team all the support possible. SIX ASPIRE FOR PRESIDENT IN THE PROHIBTION RANKS St. Paul, Minn., May 31.—S8ix as- pirants for president of the United States on the Prohibition ticket will present themselves for nomination at the Prohibition national convention in St. Paul, July 18.

Doan’s Kidney Pills have brought lasting results to thou- sands. Here is proof of merit from this vieinity. Mrs. J. Blondo, 306 Third St., Be- midji, says: “My back ached so se- verely that I couldn’t rest well at night. It was hard for me to turn over or change my position. Be- lieving that the trouble was caused by some disorder of my kidneys, I was led to try Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at Barker’s Drug Store, as one of my people had becn cured of kidney complaint by them. They soon removed the pain in my back. They also strengthened my kidneys and I have felt well ever since.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—sget Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Blondo had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.—Adv. Study Food' Values .

Mosby, the most famous Confed- erate raider of the Civil war, dled here yesterday after a long illness. He was a native of Virginia and 82 years old. Col. Mosby dared death over fifty years. ago when at the head of a band of a few hundred Confederate raiders he rode up and down the Shenandoah valley, capturing out- posts, destroying supply trains and cutting off means of communication. It has been estimated that ‘he often neutralized the force of over 15,000 Federals in the valley. UPON THIS CHAIN OF BONES depends health.
