Wise buyers read the ads before they go to the store to spend their money. If the ad isn’t there they don’t read it. The wise merchant will take the hint. Mr. Hughes and Mr. Wilson are both cock sure of election to the presidency. Which, incidentally, is at least some slight assurance that we will continue to have a president. According to the New York Times (Wilson organ), the cost of living: is now 3.3 per cent higher than it was a month ago, and 36.7 per cent higher than it was a year ago. The plank of the Baltimore platform on this subject is interesting reading just now for men who voted for Wilson in 1912. AN APOLOGY. Charles 8. Sherman of the St. Paul Times made a mistake. He admits it and he apologizes for it. Miss E. L. Calihan of the Bemidji Townsite & Improvement company called his attention to his mistake in regard to Bemidji and the fol- lowing is Editor’s Sherman’s plea for clemency: ‘““We have been called down good and plenty for associating, as we did last week, the name of ‘Bemidji’ with a brutal assault on a young school teacher a short time ago. Our fair correspondent says that it ‘did not happen in Bemidji, nor in Beltrami county. It was in Grand Rapids, Itasca county, I believe. Bemidji brutes—if there are any like the ones described—are not permitted to run about. They lock them up when they do not behave at Bemidji. No other use for the jail at that place.” All of which makes us want to doff our hat to Bemidji—even at the risk of exposing our bald pate—and ask forgiveness for the mistake. We feel quite sure that the item which called forth our indignation said ‘Bemidji.” With this plea for clem- ency, but not offering it as an excuse for the blunder, we submit our case to our fair friend and to the city of Bemidji.” THE FIRE ANNIVERSARY. Six years ago, Saturday, Oect. 7, Baudette, Spooner and miles of sur- rounding territory were visited by a fire which left death and destruction in ist path. The forest fire of Oct. 7, 1910, destroyed two villages, hun- dreds of settlers’ homes, took thirty- four lives as its toll, and caused un- told suffering and misery, but it could not destroy the courage of the pioneers of the north, says the Bau- dette Region. With the work of years destroyed in a few hours and with nothing but their indominable pluck remaining, they turned their backs to the past and their faces to the future—and they won out against tremendous odds. Looking back across those six years, W. T. Noonan of the Baudette Region writes that he is prouder than ever of the stout-hearted opti- mistic men and women who so calmly faced disaster on that terrible night, and whose wonderful courage en-| abled them to conquer the many ob- stacles that beset their path in the long months and years that followed. As we look at two prosperous vil- lages, with their contented, happy residents, as we look at the beau- tiful country surrcundmg them, with their fields of grain and with the many evidences of development and improvement, we can have only ad- miration for' those who have given such & splendid illustration of true American pluck. MR. ROOT'S SPEECH. One of the greatest contributions OILET & BATH jeach bottle. to the national campaign, as well as to the history of this nation, is the classic speech delivered by Elihu Root, former secretary of state, at Carnegie Hall, New York. With compelling logie, lucid il- lustration and unimpassioned oratory Mr. Root analyzed the record of this administration, showed the estimate in which, as a result of the Wilson foreign policy, the United States has come to be held by foreign powers and the danger which that estimate involves. “We are told that Mr. Wilson has kept the country out of war,” he said at one point. “So has every president for seventy years except Lincoln and McKinley. Never since Columbus sighted San Salvador has there been a time when it was so easy for Am- erica to keep out of war by doing 0 | nothing as it has been during the great conflict now raging in the Old < g World. All the great powers of the world, except ourselves, have had their hands full with existing ene- mies. They have been straining every resource to the utmost to avoid being conquered by the enemies in arms against them. Our danger is not now, while the great war is raging, but later, when peace has been made and the great armies are free and governments look about for ways to repair their losses, and the great spaces and ill-defended wealth of the new world looms on the hor- izon of their desires.” Without bitterness, but with tell- ing force, Mr. Root traced the course of the Wilson administration. He declared that the great safeguard of a nation was its reputation for char- acter and manliness and courage and that with such reputation gone it was almost certain to be imposed upon by foreign aggressors as to make war unescapable.
