Hunt up the road officials and cuss them instead. The strike was called off. But prices, we note, persistently decline to come down. l Hibbing has succeeded in getting on the front page again—this time because of graft charges. Well, well, well! How’s the war, anyway? Every time we read about it we know less than when we began. The man who persistently ignores improved 'methods of farming is him- self eventually ignored by the god- dess of fortune. The reaper was distanced'by the stork in Minnesota in 1915. During that year there were 55,103 births and 22,755 deaths, according to a report made Saturday by the state board of health. General Nelson A. Miles thinks a federation of nations would put an end to war. So do we. But the trouble is, the kings and emperors and other potentates won’t listen to either Miles or us. Something must not be of the best in the system of auditing the ac- counts of state departments, county offices and village and city affairs. The recent graft developments indi- cate that some change in the system is absolutely necessary. Are you making use of the state free traveling libraries?

A $2.000.000:000 CONGRESS. “We denounce the profligate waste of the money wrung from the people by oppressive taxa- tion through the lavish appro- priations of recent Republican congresses, which have kept taxes high and reduced the pur- chasing power of the people’s toil. We demand a return to that simplicity and economy which befits a Democratic gov- ernment and a reduction in the number of useless offices, the salaries of which drain the sub- stance of the people.” Demo- cratic National Platform, 1912. Nothing more clearly exemplifies the radical difference between the platform pledges of the Democratic party and its performances than the plank quoted and the performance of the congress just ended, which has created innumerable new and useless offices and appropriated $2,000,000,- 000 of the people’s money. With on- ly the first session of the sixty-fourth congress completed, the Democrats have appropriated, in exact figures, $1,947,259.048. The Democrats have spent over $8,000,000 a day for every one of the 245 days’ life of this ses- sion, including Sundays and holi- days. The administration estimates the total revenues for the next fiscal year at $762,000,000. They contend, however, that the deficit will not be quite as large as these figures would make it appear because payment of some of the gov- ernment’s bills can be deferred until later on. It will, however, require an even more adroit exhibition of juggling with treasury figures than Secretary McAdoo has thus far dis- played to conceal the fact that “Democratic economy” has produced substantially a million dollar de- ficit. After the election, the public will be permitted to know the extent of the bond sales which the admin- istration contemplates. Never before in the history of the nation has a single session of con- gress been. so profligate in its ex- penditures of the people’s money. Probably it will be long before the voters will permit Democratic: ineffi- ciency to perpetrate such colossal economic blunders as has the pres- ent administration.

M’GRAW BUILDING UP NEW GIANTS By HAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Sept. 11.—John Me- Graw, disappointed with his 1916 Giants, is starting in all over with the intention of putting his 1917 lineup in the pennant fight from the start. He has started trades which have materially strengthened the Giants and already has purchased minor league players who right now appear to have the making of stars. McGraw has had uncommonly bad luck recently in his trades. One of the most notable of his failures is Hans Lobert, the veteran third base- man he acquired from Philadelphia. He gave in exchange several young- sters who have been doing good work for the Phillies. The acquisition of Sallee, Herzog and Zimmerman, however, gives promise of bringing better results. All of these men, while they no long- er are youngsters, have been put tthrough the mill and each of them has proved his class. Whether they, like some other of McGraw’s ac- quisitions, will fall down next season is a matter which that season alone will ‘decide. In addition to these three stars, McGraw’s lines are out for youngsters he expects will fill the shoes of de- parted stars. Walter Hoke, a re- cruit first baseman, is favored as a likely candidate for Fred Merkle’s old station at first base. He now is with Rochester in the International league, but his release has been pur- chased by the Giants and he will re- port next spring. He will be given a thorough tryout. Lew McCarty, obtained from Brook- lyn in the deal which sent Fred Mer- kle to the Dodgers, looks to be one of the coming windpad stars. He is a hitter of great power and led the Na- tional league for some time. He will prove a great help to Bill Rariden. Both clubs seem to have benefitted by this deal, for Brooklyn was badly in need of a first class doorkeeper when Jake Daubert was injured. The trades and purchases which brought Herzog, Zimmerman and Mec- Carty to the Giants are epochal from a baseball standpoint. With the Herzog deal Christy Mathewson pass- ed from New York; Merkle departed with the coming of McCarty and Doyle, almost the last of the great Giant machine so successful in by- gone years, went to the Cubs for “Zim.” Sallee grouched with the Cardinals, but is believed to have several good seasons left as a Giant. The success or failure of Coach Jumbo Steihm with the Indiana uni- versity football team will be awaited with much interest. When he had charge of football at Nebraska he was proclaimed the best coach west of the Alleghenies. He will have a chance at Indiana to prove his metal against coaches of the Big Nine. A Rankin Johnson, whose battles with Walter Johnson were a sensa- tion when Rankin was a member of the Red Sox, has again kicked over the traces, having departed from the Texas league. He says he’ll play in- dependent ball. Poe field at Princeton has been named in honor of Johnny Poe, for- mer Princeton football star who was killed while fighting in France for the Allies. There’s five hundred different kinds of pen points sold here and the Pioneer office has over 400 of them. Come and see them. If we haven't it we’ll get it quickly. Incredible Results Startle Bemidj1 There has never been anything here with the INCREDIBLE results of simple lavoptik eye wash. One man’s eyes were 80 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. ONE lavoptik eye wash surprised her. We guarantee a small bottle to benefit EVERY CASE weak, strained or inflamed eyes. ONH ‘WASH produces_incredible results. Barker’s Drug Store.—Adv.
