Beltrami Gets Raise. Two bills, one raising Beltrami commissioners’ salaries and the other raising the clerk hire in the county treasurers’ office are now laws, the governor having put his signature tickled as a kid with a new toy when they passed his bill changing the name of. Crooked Lake in Cass county to Roosévelt Lake, and he blossomed forth with the treats as a result. Road Publicity Bureau. A bill to create a bureau of infor- mation for the Babcock road law has been introduced, and there is as big a flock of aspirants for the job as there is for the Bemidji postoffice, which, you will admit, is going some. The big excitement last week was the speech of Will Hays, national re- publican chairman, and he made it plain that the next presidential election is not going to be any pink tea affair, but a fight to a finish. ‘Among other verbal bricks tossed by Mr. Hays is his chattologue were the following: Germs of Thought. “The income tax is a fine imposed on you for living outside of the cot- ton belt.”” “Some people blame Mr. Wilson fifty and sixty cases were before the | Public Health association, and the|you have still to do and his desire -o\ " ave i 4 .
