He’s dead again. It takes a poor promiser to live up to his own promises. The Stillwater Daily Gazette was 82 years old Saturday. Don’t forget the Beltrami County Fair, September 13-14-15. Every city has its human side, but it takes a hume . to find it. Now, all together, and for every known ill: ““The war did it!” There is always a bright side to life, but people who hunt gloom never find it. Getting acquainted is easy these days. All you have to do is to get acquainted. Stick to the farm, brother, and you won’t have a horde of bad debt col- lectors sticking to you. That American inventor who claims tc have harnessed the sun can al- ways make that excuse that the har- ness broke. No, we can’t say that we are en- tirely unbiased as to the war in Europe. Our sympathies are dis- tinctly with America. Bradstreet attributes more than a quarter of the business failures to incompetence and another five per cent to inexperience. The country isn’t suffering such an awful lot, just because the “wet” territory is gradually growing small- er, says the Grygla Eagle. ‘When every man adopts the prin- ciple of voting for the one best fitted for public office we’ll all be glori- ously in the running. Whoop! If the country is to be engulfed by a great railroad strike we neutrals can at least have the crowning satis- faction of cussing both sides and everybody concerned. The Democrats are finding the plaint of a Democratic member of cengress true. He said, when ap- pealed to stand by the president, “It’s pretty hard to stand by a man who won’t stand still.” Farmers should stand against the fire danger, says the state fire mar- shal. Farm buildings should be made more fireproof or at least less susceptible to destruction by fire. The Pioneer received a carload of news print paper Saturday, despite' the big shortage and high prices, in print paper. The Pioneer will ' be able to be publlshed now for some time without worry in regard to the paper shortage and high prices. University students who are on the torder with the national guard should be permitted to return home to complete their education. A man nowadays must have a good educa- tion to compete in the business world and it should not be neglected for border patrol duty. It may be comforting to folks now that they have been paying nine to ten cents a pound for sugar, to know that at the last report the National Bank of Cuba had deposits for the year that showed an increase of near- 1y $25,000,000 over those of the year before.—Browning’s Magazine. THE MEXICAN COMMISSION. President Wilson has named a strong Mexican commission in Sec- retary Lane, Judge George Gray and Dr. John R. Mott. Secretary Lane has a pretty keen grasp of the Mexi- can situation; Judge Gray is a man of demonstrated judicial attainments; Dr. Mott is a man of wide experi- ence in connection with the Y. M. C. A. And yet, in the light of past experience and present events, that this commission has any mission other than ‘‘tide over” the Mexican situa- tion until after the election is diffi- cult to perceive. BELTRAMI COUNTY. . 'Fred D. Sherman, Minnesota com- missioner of immigration, has the fol- lowing to say in regard to Beltrami ccunty in an article entitled “The Ac- complishments of a Decade,” written “|by: him for the Northern: Minnesota Magazine: “Beltrami county, next to St. Louis,- the largest in the state, has made wonderful progress, es- pecially ; in the southern half, and pretty nearly. all of ' that country south of Red Lake is quite well settled and good roads and prosperous farms are found in every township. North of Red Lake there is a vast area of country still in its primeval state and many thousands of acres of homestead lands . are still open for entry, but these lands are being settled up, and in a few years Beltrami county will be occupied with enough people to make rapid progress in devel- oping all sections of the coun- try. In the vicinity of Spoon- er, Baudette and Williams, along the line of the Canadian North- ern railway, the country is quite well developed and some fine farms are found.” 4 P()RT NEWS 0000000000 By C. H. Hamilton, (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Aug. 28.—Apparently someone went wrong when arrange- ments were being made for the big eastern football games this fall. A glance at the schedules of Yale and Harvard universities and the Army and Navy teams is enough to prove Ordinarily Yale and Harvard meet in their annual- gridiron battle the Saturday preceding Thanksgiving and Army and Navy do their historic stunt the following Saturday. This year, however, the schedule makers have seen things differently and the two big games will be staged the same day—Yale and Harvard in the Yale bowl at New Haven, and the Army and Navy at New York. The football season this year is go- ing to start just a little ahead of the conventional time. The University of California will usher in the season officially on Sept. 16. Seven days later Harvard, Dartmouth and Georgetown will be seen in action. Also, the season will be a bit long- er this year than is the custom, the last game not being scheduled until Dec. 9. Important Thanksgiving day games include Cornell and Pennsylvania in the east; Vanderbilt vs. University of the South, and Kentucky vs. Ten- nessee in the South; Nebraska vs. Notre Dame, California vs. Washing- ton and Southern California vs. Ore- gon Aggies in the West. Fielder Jones’ Browns have the best stealing trio in the country to lead off the batting order. Shotton and Sisler are two of the fastest men the game has ever known. Owner Ebbetts declares that if his Dodgers win the National league pen- nant he will provide 40,000 seats for world’s series patrons at Ebbetts Field. Miss Fannie Durack and Miss Nina ‘Wylie, Australia’s foremost lady-fish, are, gdfn’g to visit the United States this. fall .and try to take home. some swimming victories. Mike Gibbons wants to fight again. In fact, Mike wants to fight so bad he has given out the news that un- less Les Darcy comes to the United States he, Mike, will journey to Aus- tralia to battle out the world’s mid- dleweight argument. E Freddie Welsh has nothing but | praise for Benny Leonard since his last meeting with the New York star. He says he has a wholesome respect for Leonard’s ability. A page from history reveals .the reason.:. Benny once made the champion look like a novice.
