Our unpreparedness in the matter |3 of national defense is in most part attributable to our notorious state of congressional pretense. It is no trouble to elect a good man to office, but it is a whale of a job to keep him good after he gets there. “Americanism” is a good slogan, but ‘“Americanism and Community- ism” is the best one of all. The sun, -we hope, will continue to shine this summer, whether the political pot sizzles or not. The lowly dog is faithful to his friend until death. Get down to the level of the dog.

ROSEAU COUNTY The name of this county, first applied to Roseau lake and river, is the French form of the Chippewa name which meant ‘“‘the place of the rush- es.” It was derived from the coarse reeds with ornamental plumes which grow in the wa- ter, sometimes attaining a height of 15 feet. Roseau river appeared on Verndrye's map of 1737. The county was organized in 1894. * x x * x * * * * * * * * * * * * x x *x * * x x HHKE KK KK AKX K KKK AMERICANISM AND OTHER ISMS. The Republicans nominated Jus- tice Hughes for the presidency and he immediately chose ‘‘American- ism” for his campaign slogan. The Progressives at the same time nominated Colonel Roosevelt, and the colonel is well known as a staunch advocate of Americanism, although he has declined the nomination. The Democrats renominated Presi- dent Wilson, whose slogan is also ‘““Americanism.” Thus it is seen that whoever may be elected in November, Americanism is to be the watchword of the fu- ture. 1t is well, for if there is one thing above all else that is needed in this couniry it is a strong and ever in- creasing spirit of Americanism. But while the presidential aspir- ants are agitating Americanism, let us of the local community coin a few “isms” for our own individual and collective weal, and force them through with the same energy and perseverance that is being exercised in the national areana. America needs Americanism, and F Aok ok ok ok ok ok k ok ok Ak ok ok ok ok ok ok kok ok kK in like measure our own community| needs a broader spirit of community- ism. We should annex or “ism” to our homes, and to our business enter- prises, and our schools, and churches, and societies, and to every other feat- ure of our local existence. We should make those “isms” in- tegral parts of our every day life, and pursue them to a successful con- clusion in every case. ‘We should raise the standard of| communityism and rally every citizen to the colors. Give us Americanism for the good of our country, but let us have com- munityism for the weal of our wo- men, and our children, and our homes and ourselves. Let's make ‘“Americanism” and “Communityism” the slogan for Be- midji and this community. Let’s do it now! All national guards in all the states have been ordered to the Mexi- can border for service. Now that the Democratic convention is over the idea cf “watchful waiting” has been forgotten. The president seems bent on some sort of action. 1t is the popular fad now to at- tach a small American flag to the goat end of your automobile. Or- dinary humans, however, can still fall back upon the buttonholes in the lapels of their coats. Five thousand suffragists paraded in Chicago in a heavy rain. This, though, by no means signifies that they would go to the polls and vote under like conditions. Praise the Lord for an old time red hot political campaign. It may di- vert our thoughts from Europe and Mexican ‘Whiskership entirely. The .polls are open until nine o’clock tonight. If you have mnot voted yet do so at once.

It is all over now but the voting and the counting and the shouting. WAR AVIATORS HAVE ONE CHANCE IN FOUR TO LIVE (By United Press) London, June 10.—(By mail)— Life insurance in wartime is a diffi- cult problem for the man who wants to be insured. Also for the insur- ance company. Soldiers cannot get life insurance. No company will take the risk. But the life insurance companies of Eng- land are so game that the man car- rying life insurance at the time he went to the front is assured that his wife and family will receive his in- surance money, no matter how he may be killed. All insurance life policies issued in the United Kingdom have always borne a clause that the companies would not pay for death caused by war. Nobody expected war, there- tore nobody objected to the clause. But when the war began and the men of England marched off to the front from their desks and offices, the di- rectors of life insurance companies met and decided that in spite of the war clause they would pay for deaths in war on all outstanding policies, but would issue no new policies on the lives of men going to the front. The life insurance companies have paid out for the deaths of men kill- ed in battle a tremendous sum. TAMS BIXBY A REPORTER AT DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION The following is taken from the St. Paul Pioneer Press and is in regard to Tams Bixby, head of the Bemidji Townsite & Improvement company: St. Louis, June 16.—It may not surprise old Minnesota politicians to learn that Tams Bixby was doing the Democratic convention, for Tams spent about thirty years “doing” Democrats in Minnesota, and mostly he did them very brown. It was not as the boss of any Republican com- mittee that Tams was doing the con- vention. He owns a newspaper in Musko- gee, Okla., of which he thought he was boss until a few days ago. In a thoughtless moment: he sent some copy from the Chicago convention to that paper. He promptly received orders from one of the junior Bixbys to report the St. Louis convention. The junior was in charge of the busi- ness and Tams obeyed, taking the precaution to send a few extra. tons of white paper ahead of his reports.

Ofie years ago, Barksdale, with its three " houses and general store, was nothing. Weather beaten, unkept and dreary, in the Northern . Wisconsin woods, it was an object of scorn. Today it is a proud little ecity, thriving with a perfectly good taxation of $118,000 annually. The war is blessed. E. I DuPont opened a powder mill here. That made Barksdale over night. KKK KK KKK KKK KKK Bragdon, a wealthy clubman, was found guilty of an offense against a minor girl by a jury in district court here Saturday night. The maximum penalty is seven years’ imprisonment. This was the third trial of Brag- don, who was indicted following stor- ies told by several young girls before the grand jury, which recently con- ducted a sweeping investigation of vice conditions here. The first trial jury found the defendant not guilty, and the second jury disagreed. MAYO ASSUMES COMMAND OF ATLANTIC FLEET TODAY (By United Press) Washington, June 19.—When Vice Admiral H. T.
