M. D. A. Some seven years ago the Northern Minnesota Development association was organized in Bemidji. Today it is & healthy, progressive and aggres- sive organization. The association has in a great measure carried out its high purpose, the development of Northern Minnesota. Tomorrow the association will hold its seventh annual meeting in Be- midji. Hundreds of delegates from all sections of the state will be pres- ent and matters of great interest and great importance will be discussed. This association represents 19 counties with an aggregate area of twenty million acres of land—two- fifths of the state of Minnesota. There has been some discussion in regard to discontinuing the associa- tion. Dame Rumor has come forth with the statement that this would probably be the last meeting. Stop! The delegates should not for a mo- ment consider the disorganization of the association. The work is not done—it has just begun. Much re- mains to be done for the betterment of conditions and the advancement of Northern Minnesota. The meeting will be held tomorrow because the agricultural area of Northern Min- nesota is yet undeveloped. We hope that the matter of dis- organization will not be.considered at all. THE MESSAGE. In a simple, appropriate manner, President Wilsion read his message to the 64th congress which has begun its dying session. If congress passes the measures urged upon it by the president, it will have plenty to do before March 4. 3 President Wilson urged the en- largement and administrative reor- ganization of the Interstate Com- merce commission; he urged provi- sions for public investigation and as- sessment of all industrial disputes; he urged that the national executive be given power to take over, control and operate the railways when neces- sary in time of war or other like pub- lic necessity. Nothing was said in regard to the h. c. 1. by the president, but it is believed that he is studying the sit- uation and that he will later deliver a special message when a plan he deems feasible has been found. SHEEP RAISING. Sheep raising is a paying proposi- tion and as a result Beltrami county farmers are buying and raising more sheep. R. L. Muzzy, who has a farm near Thief River Falls, has proven that sheep raising is a paying proposition in this district. He has kept a care- ful tab on the sheep on his farm dur- ing the past season. He places his investment at $800, of which $200 is a charge for the 26 head of sheep with which he started. Pastureage was also charged against the flock at the rate of $100 per acre, the al- lotment being six acres. The debit items of his record fol- low: Hay .$25.00 Care .. 10.00 Feed during lnmbing peri d. 5.00 Interest on capital stock.... 80.00 TAXES ...veceancncans . 5.00 Loss in flock 8.00 ] $133.00 To the credit of the flock: Wool, 265 pounds ... $ 79.50 Four lambs shipped . 31.00 Four sheep sold .... . 29.00 Twelve lambs born .. . 92.00 Two lambs for home use. 17.00 Six ewe lambs for overstock 48.00 $296.50 AN AUTOMOBILE. An automobile is not a wagon, neither is it a boat or any other mode of conveyance described by the fed- eral statutes as subject to seizure and confiscation by the government | when used to carry liquor or other contraband into dry Indian territory. This is the essence of a decision just made by Judge Bourquin of the fed- eral court in Butte, Mont., in declin- ing to order the confiscation of -an automobile alleged to have been used by a half-breed in carrying liguor in- ¥ California, which is an asset very * along this line. to the Flathead reservation. court contends that when the statute was passed there were no automo- biles' and as a mode of conveyance they were unknown. The decision is considered at vari- ance with that of fellow judges in Minnesota and other states, where cars have been seized by federal agents and sold for carrying liquor into dry territory. vened here. Stillwater Gazette: California is for good roads. At the recent elec- tion, by a vote of 5 to 1, they decided to authorize the issuance of bonds in the sum of $15,000,000 for the com- pletion of the system of state high- the highway, but they reduce the cost of living by the ease and reduced ex- pense by which all farm commodities can be shipped to the city. The state has built to date 1,222 miles of state roads at a cost of $16,000,000, to which the above $15,000,000 is to be added.

Told of quick relief—of undoubted benefit. The facts are now confirmed. Such testimony is complete—the evidence conclusive. It forms convincing proof of merit. Mrs. Carl Golz, 623 Minnesota Ave., Bemidji, says: “I had a lame back and suffered from distressing head- aches and dizzy spells. My kidneys caused me great annoyance. After using two boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills, obtained at Barker’s Drug Store the lameness and aching left me and I felt better in every way.” (State- ment given March 20, 1914). ALWAYS KEEP DOAN’S ON HAND. TWO YEARS LATER Mrs. Golz said: “The statement I gave in favor of Doan’s Kidney Pills some time ago, Phone 239 The | THE “ANTIS” CONVENE IN WASHINGTON (By United Press) ‘Washington, Dec. 6.—The “antis” had their inning today, when 1,000 members of the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage, con- This was the first na- tional convention in America of wo- men who believe progress for the sex lies without the realm of politics.
