Born in Detroit in 1811 he entered the service of the American Fur company at Mackinac in 1829 and was sent to Minne- sota in 1834 as general agent for the company in the Northwest. The following year he built at Mendota the first stone house in Min- nesota, which is now owned by the D. A. R. and used as a historical museum. For many years Sibley was the most influential man in the Minnesota country. When the territory was organized he was sent as its delegate to Washington and when Min- nesota became a state he was the first governor. Governor Ramsey put him in charge of the expedition to suppress the Sioux outbreak in 1862 and in the following year led an ex- pedition against the Indians in Dakota. He lived in St. Paul from 1862 until his death in 1891.

It is inconceivable that any true American could want war for war’s sake. ‘We are not that kind of a people, and our interests do not lie in that direction. But we are confronted with a sit- uation in Mexico which is calculated to exhaust the patience of any per- son with an ounce of red blood in his veins. It was time that we stop quibbling and do some real acting. The action of President Wilson in calling the state militias is commendable. Our states bordering upon Mexico are raided with impunity by the out- laws that infest the northern section of Mexico. Our citizens are mur- dered and outraged and their property stolen or destroyed. The defacto government of Mexico appears to be not only powerless to prevent these forays but we have every reason fo believe that the authorities are mak- ing no effeort whatever to check them. Every American city or town on the border is in constant danger of invasion by bandit followers of Mex- ican leaders. On Thursday a troop of Carran- zistas trapped and murdered several American soldiers. Other soldiers were taken prisoners. Under these conditions the duty of the United States is clear. The citizens on the border are our own people, the soldiers who were trapped our own people, they are our own flesh and blood. ‘We do not covet a foot of Mexican territory. : We do not want any trouble with Mexico if it can be avoided honor- ably. But conditions in that country have reached the state where nothing but_war will be of avail. “When future historians look back upon the war with Mexico in 1916, for war it seems to be, they will find that the note that professed it re- cited forbearance,” says the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Pendergast and Carter ran a pretty race for legislature at the primaries, which indicates that the fall election will be close. The Bemidji band will give a con- cert at the dock tonight, beginning at eight o’clock. There is not American in the en- tire country who is not proud to say Bemidji is ready to do its share in the present Mexican situation. It begins to look as if Washington had found a backbone.
