A number of Democrats see in the Maine election result a “Wilson vic- tory.” Their declaration to this ef- fect has led to the remark that a “Wilson victory” must be like “Wil son peace,” ‘“Wilson labor legis! tion,” etc., that, precisely as a “Wil- son peace” returns in more loss of life than a McKinley war, as a Wil- son labor law, in operation hurts in- stead of helping labor, so a “Wilson victory” means the election of the Republican ticket. _—— THE LYCEUM COURSE. The Woman’s Study club of Be- midji has secured for Bemidji an ex- cellent lyceum course to be given this winter. The University of Minne- sota Extension course will present a program of four numbers, each number being of extra high quality. The women of the club deserve much credit for securing this class of en- tertainment for Bemidji. Lyceum courses, besides being of highly en- tertaining value, have much educa- tional value. Bemidji citizens should show their appreciation of the ef- forts of the women by buying season tickets. Mrs. Thayer C. Bailey is in charge of the sale of tickets. Don’t put off. Buy your ticket today. A DEAD LOSS. National guardsmen from all over the country have been ‘‘marched up hill and then marched down again.” They have had their taste of “watch- ful waiting’”” on the Mexican border. It has cost the government $130,- 000,000, according to Democratic fig- ures, to make good Mr. Wilson’s in- capacity to perceive the necessity for military preparedness during more than two years of his administration, and to the guardsmen who responded patriotically to the call to arms, sac- rificing their business, their employ- ment, in many instances the business prospects gained by years of hard and faithful toil, and subjecting their tamilies to privation, all the loss they have sustained is a dead loss. No one will recompense them for it. They must simply offer it up as the tribute irrevocably exacted of them by Wilsonian vacilliation and Demo- cratic inefficiency.

SPORT NEWS KILBANE’S CLASS NOT APPRECIATED By HAMILTON (United Press Seaff Correspondent) * New York, Sept. 15.—Since Johnny Kilbane, the featherweight champion, had such an easy time in winning from George Chaney of Baltimore in their labor day bout at Cedar Point, 0., Kilbane has an answer to the talk about his being a champion of the “cheese” class. The fact of the matter is that Kil- bane is just about the cleverest and most versatile champion now fight- ing. Undeniably he has proved the most effective. His record is sur- prisingly full of knockouts and clean -cut victories. It has been said to Kilbane that he has avoided decision bouts to pro- tect his title much the same as Fred- die Welsh has done. Well, even if he had, there is an excuse. It is hard in these days to find a place for a fight where a decision can be given, but Kilbane has fought several deci- sion battles and none ever has gone against him. § There are a great many fight fol- 'IIIIIIIIIJIIIIII|II!III!IIIIIII”_IIIIIII|II|lllIIIIIII!“!IIII“!!IlIIIIllllll[|IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIII!IIIII!IIII!IIIIIIIIIlllllII|III|IIII||IIllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII,IIlIIIfl \ Jlowers- in- the- country-:who: believe |: the little featherweight is just the man to tip Freddie Welsh’s crown -oft-his-head and:-place:it: bhack to-: point where there will be some in- terest in the lightweight class.

FOOTBALL_PRACTICE BEGINS AT CARLETON Northfield, Minn., Sept. 15.—Foot- ball practice began at Carleton in real earnmest with the opening -of school yesterday. Coach Hunt had a small army on Laird field in the af- ternoon, fully justifying Carleton’s claim to have a greater percentage of its students out for football prac- tice than any college in the country. Before the end of the week Hunt ex- pects to have 100 out of 220 possible eligible students in uniform. Four men of last year’s winning team form the nucleus for this year’s team. They are Captain Allison, right end; Truesdalem, tackle; John- son, halfback, and Keller, fullback. The great handicap as practice be- gan was the lack of a fullback. Tom Tolman, who distinguished himself last year in that position is being held at the border in Company D, Second regiment, as a responence of having joined the guard last winter H. E. 6 1 3 1 " —Our suits and coats were contracted for before the big advance in prices. Very little change from last year, as yet.

Owen and Phillips are prospective backfield men and a fullback may be made of one of them. The Carleton team has a stiff schedule ahead of it. The first game is with Stout Institute at Northfield Sept. 30, and the remainder of the schedule is as follows: Oct. 7—Chicago university at Chi- cago. Oct. 13—Macalester at Northfield. Oct. 21—Ripon at Northfield. Nov. 4—Beloit at Northfield. Nov. 13—Hamline at St. Paul. The prospects for a ciity football eleven in Bemidji are not as good as they might be. All efforts to get the men out for practice have failed, only a few men reporting at each call. The city eleven, if organized, could get several games, as Grand have made attempts to arrange a game with the local team. Coach Juvrud of the Bemidji high school eleven put his men through a stiff practice yesterday afternoon, there being no school on account of Bemidji day at the fair. The high school eleven will. show up strong this year, although several of the best men will be unable to play be- cause of scholastic requirements of the athletic association formed by high schools in this district.
