The Women’s Roosevelt Memorial association, organized immediately after the death of the col- onel, has just announced the form of the memorial. They are to acquire Colonel Roosevelt’s birthplace and ad- joining property in New York city. The place of his birth is to be restored and the interior reproduced. And the whole “Roosevelt House,” with its assembly halls, is to be not merely a museum, not merely a record of the vigorous life and growth of our great American, to be visited by those all over the coun- try who loved him and who study the influences that made up his growth; it is to be, more than this, a centre of citizenship activities, a living thing, a place where the boys and the girls of America—and the men and women as well—will come to- gether in citizenship activities, in order that their understand- ing of America may become deeper and keener, and in order that the great ideal of practical service to our country, of in- defatigable activity in its behalf, shall stir'and move with vivid power all America that frequent or visit “Roosevelt House.” . 0. Together with re-appointment of Arthur P. White, of this city, as a member of the State Normal School board, comes that of Judge Ell Torrance, and the Minneapolis Journal makes the following comment: “With his reappointment to the State Normal School Board, Ell Torrance enters upon his fifth term and his seventeenth consecutive year of service on the Board. For the last twelve years he has served as President. This record of service is a typical, although minor, example of the many ways in which Judge Torrance has devoted himself through his life to the unostentatious service of the community and the state. Much of this service, most of it in fact, has been without material reward and at a personal sacrifice, but it has brought to him a degree of respect:and affection from his fellow citizens which must be gratifying beyond measure.” Judge Torrance is the father of Attorney Graham M. Torrance.} of this city, and he has at all times taken much interest in the establishment of the new normal school here. The fact that; he is to remain on the normal board assures the Bemidji insti-& tution another genuine friend. 0 i State fair officials are asking for an appropriation of i $300,000 to build a new life stock barn. The present building| used for exhibiting livestock are from twenty to thirty-five: years-old and have been branded as unsanitary and fire traps.i Contrary to the belief of many people, the State Fair has not! been a drain on the public treasury in past years. Figures show| that the valuation of the state fair property belonging to Minn-; esota is $1,890,182 while the state has actually appropriated; only $725,000 of this sum. The balance of approximately | $1,163,182 has been added to the property through the earnings! of the fair and through the contributions of the land to the| state. These figures are interesting and it would seem that the appropriation now requested should be readily granted by the legislature. -0 We cannot enthuse over the bill introduced in the legis- lature which would make it impossible to establish a drainage ditch without a vote of the people in a county in which the pro- ject is to be located. Such a law would add greater expense to this important work and would mean that small ditches would be practically impossible. We believe that state control of all drainage work would prove satisfactory. Many small ditches are needed throughout northern Minnesota, and it would be a matter of regret were the establishment of these projects to fail even though the land benefited would be of suffi- c'ient value to cover the amount of the lien against it. 0. Attack thus far on President Wilson’s work for the League of Nations comes in equal measure from the democratic and republican parties. Support of the president in this matter also comes out of both parties. The line of cleavage at present runs squarely across party line. If the republican party were rightly led, it would now go to the support of the president, as is did on matters of war legislation during the war itself, and thus exhibit the democratic party as incapable of further con- structive statesmanship in the government of this country. ’ G Women of Bemidji are to be congratulated. They have perfected an organization which will play an important role in the civil life of Bemidji. The war has caused our women to more fully appreciate their own capabilities and through the Bemidji Women’s Community club they are united in a work which is certain to result in unlimited good. 0. The observation of Mortimer L. Schiff, that good work is taken for granted and bad work prompts the loudest noise, is well worth keeping in mind.. His vigorous defense of the Young Men’s Christian association on his return from a visit to Europe in connection with the united war service organizations is addi- tional evidence of the association’s great and meritious work. PRSES—— : . Sleeping sickness, scientifically “lethargic encephalitis,” i which gave England a scare several weeks ago, has been dis- | & covered in the Twin Cities. The malady is not the African 5 sleeping sickness, but is bad enough. Dizziness, aching and g drooping eyelids, drowsiness, sore throat and extreme loss of strength are the symptoms. RGNy SNV The statement of W. L. Brooks that people of Beltrami county now own nearly $1,000,000 in liberty bonds, and that these purchases have not lowered bank deposits is a splendid indication of the prosperity and thrift of our citizens.
