He stated that the newspaper was the best advertis- ing medium. “When my little store closed its doors on its first day of business way back in 1861,” Mr. Wanamaker wrote, “the sum of $24.67 was found in the old-fashioned till under the counter. “The 67 cents was left there for making change next morning and the $24 was taken out by the founder and spent with the mnewspapers, which were asked simply to say that the new store was open and doing business, and had a good stock of goods useful to the people. “If I ever have a monument for discovering anything, it will be for finding out that the only advertising of direct and instant benefit to both merchant and customer is in the daily newspaper of known circulation.” America has not a pleasant task to| perform. The Mexican situation is a burden placed upon the shoulders of the Am- erican people. It will be solved without fuss or feathers or bluster or blow. It will be solved as the people solve their regular questions of life, for such is the American: spirit. The movement of the troops to the Mexican border may be but the pre- lude to a general war with Mexico. For five years anarchy has been prevailing in Mexico and for five years each day has seen the prevail- ing conditions just a little worse than the day before. It has been a retro- grade movement since the day Presi- dent Diaz fled to France. If you are an able bodied unmar- ried man with no one dependent up- on you, the Bemidji Naval Militia and the Minnesota National Guard mneeds you at once. A recruiting campaign is necessary to make the national ‘guard and na- val militia as effective as it should be. If you desire to join the Bemidji Naval Militia apply to Lieut. E. A. Barker. Complaints are being received every day from farmers living near Be- midji that “smart-alec” = automobile drivers are speeding along the roads frightening horses and cattle. One instance -reportcd this morning is that tlree young men in an automo- bile frightened horses and cattle near Solway. Onme of the horses was in- jured. The Bemidji Automobile club should investigate these charges and take some action. — Jefferson highway officials will be the guests of the city of Bemidji to- morrow. They are inspecting the various routes of the proposed new highway from Winnipeg to New Or- lcans. As many automobiles as pos- sible, ‘filled with persons, are wanted to go to Bagley tomorrow morning to meet the highway officials and to escort them to this city. Colonel Roosevelt voiced the: senti- ments of many in his letter to the Progressive national committee yes- terday. The endorsing of Hughes by the Progressives means that Hughes will be elected by a large majority next fall.

Some of these washed out contained old fashioned copper tea kettles such as were articles of trade by the Hud- son Bay company for the furs of the Indians a hundred years ago. As a rule the Indians of this district bury the dead about three feet under- ground and at the present time they build boxes of boards for the depart- ed one, but the old time graves give evidence that layers of birch bark were laid in the bottom of the grave and the bedy deposited thereon and many layers of bark placed on top again. Some of these graves had large quantitics of loose beads on the bottom, showing that they must have been old as the bead work had rotted away.

FIND EVIDENCE THAT LITTLE BOY DROWNED International Falls, Minn., June 27. —All doubt as to the fate of the little La Gasa boy who disappeared from his home here last Tuesday was dis- sipated by the police finding his clothes on the bank of the first creek east of town, where he had been in the habit of going swimming. He was seen thereon Tuesday in com- pany with several other boys but the police have been unable to locate the latter. It is not known whether they saw the boy drown and were frightened and ran away or whether he was alone at the time of the tragedy, of which his clothing bears mute testimony.
