Newspaper reports sent broadcast over the country from Washington tell us that there are hundred thousand spies of foreign governments in the United States, and that these people are daily collecting information of our defensive measures and forwarding that information to their home governments. If there are that number of spies in this country our own government officlals must be aware of the identity of at least a portion of them. And if their identities are known why it is that they are still at large and pur- suing their despicable calling to the detriment of the United States? Why are they not behind the bars, where they should be, and where they should be if it were in any other country but ours? We do not need traitors or .spies in this country, and the sooner they are kicked out or jailed or hung the better it will be for our own welfare. The man who can not respect and protect our flag and our country has no legitimate place in our midst, and we do not want him. Get out! FALSE SECURITY from danger right at the time when they are in the greatest jeopardy. It is so with the United States today. There is a lull in the German situa- tion, Japan has had nothing to say fer a few weeks, and Mexico appears to be taking a siesta. Hence, without looking beneath the surface, we jump to the conclusion that ‘‘everything is fine and the dove is flirting with the American Eagle.”” But just before every disastrous storm there is & lull, with scarcely a ripple on the water, with not a leaf stirring. We appear to be indifferently sleeping in such a lull today, giving no heed to the tempest that may be roaring tomorrow. And in the end we will pay the price of our folly. WE HAVE SEEN BETTER HEADS ON NAILS Last week when C. R. Middleton of Baudette drew up a resolution en- dorsing the President in the present crisis, the members of the Beltrami county board of commissioners eagerly signed it—that is all signed it with the exception of Commissioner Hayes, who emphatically refused. His re- fusal put him in the same class as Representative Strand of Two Harbors, who drew down the wrath of the legislature for a similar action. We have about come to the conclusion that Hayes and Strand must have been the only men in their districts that desired the positions they now hold. 1f there were others it hardly seems possible that the electors would choose that pair to misrepresent them.—Baudette Region. Tennessee has enacted a “bone dry” prohibition law, which takes effect March 1. After that date it will be unlawful to ship liquor intc the state, to convoy it in, or even to have liquor in one’s possession. The really disastrous feature of the situation is that it will inevitably cause a fearful decimation in the ranks of the colonels, for whoever heard of a colonel voluntarily residing in a “bone dry” state? ‘What shall we do with the food price boosters? There is no place in heaven for them, for that is reserved for human beings. We can’t send them to jail, for that would be cruelty to the other inmates. Hell won't have them, for the devil refuses to associate with anyone worse than bimself. What shall we do with them? Pancho Villa should be proud of his criminal record. It has cost the United States two hundred million dollars to ‘“take him,” and yet he still cavorts around northern Mexico at will and is waiting to be “taken.” If you see an editor who pleases everybody, there will be a glass plate over his face and he will not be standing up.—The Times, Thomasville, Georgia.

Tul. They are the real heroes of life Their disappointment makes them grand, for in their discomfiture their spirit is as gentle as a summer sunset. But with some others it is not so They rage at a little mishap. They de- nounce everything and everybody in their disappointment. They are simply ill bred. It is not so with a gentleman or a lady. They accept a reverse as a matter of course and make a virtue out of a disappointment.—Columbus (0.) State Journal. Good Breeding It shows good breeding to accept without grumbling or growling what falls to one in the ordinary course of ; events. There are people who easily and noisily find fault with everything that doesn't go their way. The slight- est interruption distur them and | makes them mad. They act as if the world was made for them and ir their disappointment was a great chasm in the logic of events. This is | not a show of good breeding. A per- son whose nature is noble will accept the little misfits in life as somewhat to be expected and bear them with a | brave and unselfish spirit. We have seen men who meet their little disap’ pointments with a poise that is beauti.

Doctors prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Catarrh is a local disease, greatly influenced by constitutional con- ditions and therefore requires constitu- tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Medi- cine, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is a constitutional remedy, is taken internally and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System. One Hundred Dollars re- ward is offered for any case that Hall's Catarrh Medicine fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio. Sold by Druggists, 75c.
