EVER SO OFTEN a man must stop and take an inventory of what he is worth or not worth, if he is honest he finds many weak places—does he pass them by or try to correct them and find a remedy? Does it occur to us that as we take stock of OUR CITY, its affairs and all, that there are many weak places that have been allowed to run on and on for years, would we do well to find a remedy to correct them and to this end, if elected, I pledge myself to use every effort, thus: 1st. TO GET FOR EVERY DOL- LAR spent by the city of Bemidji, one hundred cents, FULL VALUE, BE IT LABOR, CONTRACTS OR ‘WHAT NOT. We can ask, have we always had it in the past. 2nd. TAXES—High taxes have become a burden to rich and poor alike. There must be some remedy found whereby a more economical administration of city officers can be effected, to cut needless waste, to cut needless improvements, to care for what improvements we now have, but not to spend any more for new improvements until we are at least on a cash basis, and until some of our present indebtedness 1is cut down. 3rd. TO SAVE MONEY every year and to set aside, or in some manner provide money towards a new city hall, large enough and good enough, and one that would be a credit to the city such as ours. We need it for conventions, for business or for farmers' meetings, etc. Our present city hall is a disgrace to our city. Give us less paving, if neces- sary, but do give us a new city hall. Care for the indoors as well as the outdoors. Our city should be a con- vention city, and if so, we must have a place to entertain conventions. 4th. Permanent public bath houses provided for ladies, men and the kiddies, with proper attendants. It is only a waste of money to make temporary ones, which are destroyed every year. Same could be said of winter sports—permanent warming houses, etc. A good many other matters could be touched, on but this is enough of a platform to stand on; more can be added later, and as I had no plat- form, one had to be made. Please understand, I do not claim to be any “cure all,” or that I can do all or any of these, except in that I can persistently talk and urge and agi- tate them, until public opinion will bring pressure to bear and same is passed by our council. If elected to this office, all this I promise to do, manicuring,- face massage, treatment for sore feet. Headquarters for Melba preparations. Make your ap- pointments early.

It may be that a Dutchman named Knickerbocker did live in the early his- tory of New York, but if he did there are no records extant to prove it. The truth is, the name was created by Washington Irving. who applied it to all residents of New York in his time who happened to be descended from the early Dutch settlets. Irving used this quaint Dutch character in his “Knickerbocker History of New York” to burlesque the early days of the city. ‘The volume purported to have heen the work of Diedrich Knickerbocker and gave an amusing and satirical account of the early Dutch settlers. of the period tell us that the book bit-|= terly offended their descendants, who never forgave Irving for his fling at them.—New York Times, “I really believe, Will Atwood, that you married me because I have money,” she announced, with a fine display of feeling. “No, youre wrong,” returned her husband candidly. cause I thought you’d let me have some of it.”—Exchange.

It is becoming clear that with a little care and a trifling expendi- ture a car built as Dodge Brothers car is built can maintain itself for an indefinite period.

Its light, strong construction was carefully calculated to promote economy as well as capable performance. It will pay you to visit us and examine this car The gasocline consumption is unusually low.
