On their journey to %« St. Peter the committee dis- % cussed several possible names * for the new county, but seem- * ed unable to agree on a suit- * able one. Finally at the sug- ¥ gestion of one of their num- % ber the name of Wright was * adopted as a compromise. * * * ok Kk ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ko ko ok kR ok ok HH KKK KKK KKK KKK AUGUST FOURTEENTH. Do you know that every appli- cant for insurance is asked whether he drinks alcoholic drinks and if so whether it is beer or whiskey and how much per day? Do you know that every em- ployer asks a prospective em- ploye the same question? Do you know that many em- ployers refuse to hire a man who drinks liquors even moderately? Do you know that the fact that 2 man who indulges in al- coholic liguor disqualifies him from service with many rail- roads? Why? It is practically conceded that alco- hol does a man no good; the best that the friends of alcohol claim for it is that it does a man little or no harm. But big business answers em- phatically that it belittles the value of man. They are figuring it on the dollars and cents basis. They are not looking directly as to the moral effect of strong drink; they are only indi- rectly interested in the sufferings and deprivations of the family of the man who squanders his salary at a saloon; they are primarily interested in the financial result. Experience has taught them that they can lose money on the man who drinks. He mnot only does inferior work himself but he has a bad moral effect on his fellow workman. It doesn't pay; they don’t want him and won't hire anyone whom they know drinks. Insurance men ask higher rates from the driking man or if he drinks to excess they refuse to issue him a policy at all. That is a very emphatic answer as to what they be- lieve the effects of alcohol are. Just as emphatically the Pioneer states its position on this question. To dissolve any doubt in.the minds of our readers we_ bluntly announce without any reservation whatsoever that we stand for-prohibition and are unalterably opposed to the liquor in- terests or those who favor license. On August 14, Beltrami' county votes whether or not the county goes “dry.” The southern half of our county is‘already dry under'the Fed- eral Indian treaty. It is up to you, voters, to decide whether you will follow the example set by the Fed- eral government or whether you will offset that advantage by permitting those from the dry territory swarm into the wet half of the county and then return home intoxicated and broke. County option will make it possible to govern the communities inside the treaty district that are at present rebellious and defiant. On election day we will place our cross on the ballot for prohibition for two reasons: First, saloons are an evil which mitigate against the pros- perity and welfare of Beltrami coun- 'y; second, the whole county should be upon the same basis and not split up as at present. 5 Think it over between now and August 14 and ask yourself for any good reason why you should perpetu- ate drunkenness in Beltrami county: ask yourself why you should maks some poor family dependent upon charity or county aid simply becansé the father or son is immoderate and weak. Think when you vote! A NEW PAPER. The Pioneer has received the first copy of the Sleepy Eye Progressive which has been started by Paul F. Dehnel, formerly editor of the Be- midji Herald. The new paper is Mr. Dehnel's twelfth paper and is a Hughes-Fairbanks Republican news- paper. MANY DIVORCES. Don’t yell too. loud .about peace. Last year there was one divorce to every three marriages in Beltrami county.—Baudette Region. KR KKK K KKK KKK KK % “BAY BREEZES” * ¥ (By Special Correspondent) ¥ KKH KK EH KKK KKK KKK Mrs. S. C.

One man’s eyes were so badly strained he could not read five minutes without pain. Two applications with-lavop- tik relieved him. A lady had tried three different glasses for weak, in- flamed eyes.

The footnote: “Oklahoma is an American terri- tory, adjoining that of Kansas in the northeast of Texas and its chief town has only a population of 5,000.” NORTHERN BELTRAMI FAIR IN SEPTEMBER Baudette, Minn., July 10.—A meet- ing will be called in a few days to arrange for the annual Northern Bel- trami County fair, which will be held in Baudette some time in September.
