Kellogg of Minnesota may be brought out as a “favorite son” candidate for the presidency, is stirring up things politically in republican ranks in this state, and there seems to be a tendency on the part of boosters for other candidates, already announced, to prevent: Kellogg from becoming the “fvaorite son.” A state conference will be called soon. It is already well known that Irving A. Caswell will man- age the campaign in Minnesota of Major General Leonard Wood. A. A. D. Rahn and Fred Carpenter, it is said, will be found behind Senator Hiram Johnson of California, and the Nonpartisans are plugging for Governor Frazier of North Dakota. It is also the belief of leading party membérs in the state that Senator Kellogg will come out in favor of Wood. In the Sixth congressional district, of which Beltrami couny is a part, represented in the house of representatives by Harold Knutson, C. H. Warner of Aitkin has announced him- self as a candidate for the delegation from the Sixth, and he is in favor of General Wood. The “favorite son” boom is not alone a Minnesota propo- sition, for Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts is being put forward by the republicans of that state; Governor Goodrich of Indiana is another; Governor Sproul of Pennsylvania is also being boosted in his state; Governor Frazier of North Dakota, Nonpartisan, is being brought out by the Townley bunch as being a republican and after the endorsement of the repub- licans of the state of Minnesota. Senator Sutherland of West Virginia: and Senator Kenyon of Iowa are also be mentjoned in the “favorite son” class. Governor Lowden of Illinois is expected to come to Min- nesota and make a bid for the state delegation. Senator Harding might be the compromise candidate at the national convention, and if General Pershing draws in there ig likely to be more complications result, as it is reported that Pershing and Wood don’t exactly love each other. On the other hand, if President Wilson declines to be a candidate for a third term, his son-in-law, McAdoo, might be pushed forward, as his tom-tom is being sounded. _— AN IMPORTANT WEEK OF THE OLD YEAR. This week will be an eventful one, the last week of the year 1919, for the year has been one of strikes and lockouts, and the government is hoping that 1920 will prove a year of peace and record production. Commencing today, the first report of the president’s in- dustrial commission, appointed to work out a plan to prevent future trouble between capital and labor, is due this week and will be made public. The first meeting of the tribunal called to investigate the coal controversy will be held. Railroad union heads will meet to outline further action on their demand for increased wages, which they desire settled before the roads are returned to their privat owners March 1. It is to be hoped that good results may come from these meetings and that differences between workers and capital may end. — o PRESIDENT WILSON REACHES SIXTY-THIRD YEAR. President Wilson reached his sixty-third year Sunday, and spent a quiet day. Rear Admiral Grayson, the president’s personal physician, said that his patient’s progress continues and that the president is in good spirits. e Presidential bees are again buzzing around looking for the entrance to the official hive. We suspect, however, that some of them are only bumblebees. : TR T Among German generals a popular pastime consists of telling each other how they won the war by crying “enough.” —_— Some men are born tired, some become tired, while others are too darned lazy to even get tired.

As it is, he goes to help the girl and falls so deeply in love with her that he thinks no more of suicide. TOM MIX TONIGHT. SPECIAL—NEW YEARS DAY. the Chinks in the pursuit of their fav- orite indoor sports. “The Tong Man”-with Sesue Ha- yakawa, will be shown Wednesday and Thursday at the Grand. “THE WINNING STROKE” The big scenes in the George Walsh photoplay ‘‘The Winning Stroke, which opens today at the Grand the- atre includes actual photoghaphs of the great Yale-Harvard boat race—a contest which annually absorbs the keen interest of the entire aquatic sporting world. Some of the scenes in this play were filmed on the Yale campus and in the Yale crews train- ing quarters—the first time a con- cession of this sort has been granted for motion pictures. “The Winning Stroke” is whole- some.in sentiment, powerful in plot and speedy enough in action to meet any demand. “THE GRIM GAME.” The tremendous energy and zeal with which Houdini, the famous hand stunts laid out for him by the scenar- stunts laid oue for him by the scenar- ist in his new Paramount-Artcraft picture, “The Grim Game,” a com- plete six-part feature story on view at the Elko theatre tonight and to- morrow, nearly proved his undoing. In a fierce battle in which Houdini fights with a quartet of burglars “extras,” his wrist snapped in the midst of the action. “The present generation can see me in person,” said Houdini during the filming of “The Grim Game,” “but I want my most thrilling feats perpetuated on the screen, so that people in later years can assure them- selves that I actually did them. That’s why I have saved the most sensa- tional stunts I have ever doné for this picture and have worked my head off t? make them as successful as possi- ble.” The result is probably the most thrilling “stunt picture’” ever shown, into which an entertaining mystery story has been worked. The latest Mack Sennett release, “The Speak Easy,” is also on the Elko program tonight and Tuesday. LILA LEE’S LATEST. The attraction at the Elko theatre Wednesday and THursday is “The Heart of Youth,” a new Paramount picture featuring dainty Lila Lee. A pretty country romance is woven into the central theme, which con- cerns a laughabvle feud between two neighbors. THE EXCHANGE EDITOR. By Cy Perkins, Jr. Interesting stories—real and unreal—as told by the editors of the press of Northern Minnesota, retold, rehashed and commented on by this editor. QUESTION NO. 1. Congress may cease publication of The Record to save paper. How would members circulate speeches they do not deliver?—St. Cloud Times. AMERICAN’S 19TH YEAR. Ernest L. Oberg started the Amer- ican in 1901. It therefore enters its nineteenth year, this month. It is the second oldest paper in Beltrami county, and is the only Beltrami county paper that has remained con- tinuously under one owner.—Pollock News. Keep the good work up. Ernest, you're still a young man. COMPLETE HAPPINESS. When we have cows, creameries, contentment and confidence we need not worry for coal or cash or even cold.—Stillwater Gazette. Up here we would start off with clover and cut-over lands. 0. DEATH WHERE IS THY STING? It’s too bad that Gabriel didn’t play his saxophone solo on the 17th. The coal sharks would have needed asbes- tos lingerie by this time, and that would have made us all feel good.— Baudette Region. IF THE GOVERNMENT WOULD DO ITS DUTY. Homesteaders get $7 for a cord of pulpwood. One cord of pulpwood makes one ton of paper, and one ton of paper sells for $160. One jail cell would just fit one paper manufac- turer.—Baudette Region. NEITHER CAN WE. 1t seems that the freedom of the Phillipines would have more stand- ing before congress than the Irish question, which is not our affair at all and we can’t see any reason for the United States to butt in. The Trish always seemed able to take care of themselves.—Spooner News. HOW ABOUT IT. TOM. Tom Frankson’s candidacy for gov- ernor does not seem to take very well with the press in this section, his candidacy receiving anything but fav- orable comment. They say Tom is P 8 s s G— E p E Ds S i L B R e N s B2 50 B P e RO g R o U I LR 2 0 UMD, 5 Wt MR that is about all his candidacy stands for.—Hubbard County Journal. WE'LL BET THEY COULD. If government officials would make an extra effort we believe they could capture almost as many profiteers in ten days as they have Reds. FROM FRIEND HUSBAND. My most embarrdssing moment oc- curred on my birthday anniversary. I had invited some guests to dinner, and as is usual at birthday parties, I received some gifts, among which was a creamer and sugar bowl. As we sat down to dinner, I asked my husband how he liked my new creamer and sugar bowl, which I had already put in use (he not knowing I had received it as a gift), and he said in a joking manner, in the pres- ence of my guests: “Some more of your cheap bargains?” I need not tell you of my embar- rassment, for the lady friend who so kindly gave it to me did not seem to like the joke at all.—Chicago Trib- une. i said to be entirely due to the rapid reduction of the present supply, rather than to any great improve- ment in the general industrial situ- ation causing a greater demand. THE REVERSE HAPPENED. “Been burglarized, eh? How about that camera you had set for just such an occasion ?” “Hang it all, instead of the camera taking the burglar the bur- glar took the camera.”—Boston Eve- ning Transcript. TRAINED NURSE OUT WITH FACTS Was On Verge of Nervous Pros- tration—Gains Ten Pounds and Troubles End One of the most interesting of the many recent statements regarding Tanlac was made by Mrs. Isabella Rowe of 1517 West Walnut St., Des Moines, Iowa, in an interview, re- cently. Mrs. Rowe, who is a trained nurse of wide experience in relieving suffer- ing'and well known to the people of Des Moines, is only one of the great many in her profession, who after having realized its remarkable pow- ers, have become ardent champions of the Master Medicine. When asked if she was willing for her statement to be published, Mrs. Rowe said: “Yes, indeed, for I firmly believe Tanlac has saved me from nervous prostration and I am glad to make a statement which may be of benefit to the vast numbers who orc in need of such a medicine. “I had suffered from stomach and liver trouble, disordered kidneys and extreme nervousness for a year or more. My food would not digest properly and I not only suffered in- tense pain in my stomach after eat- ing, but my heart would palpitate so from the pressure of gas that I could scarcely breathe. In fact, my whole body was full of pain and the small of my back, especially, hurt me so at times I felt like T would go distracted. I had lost a great deal in weight and even my friends were talking gbout how weak and run down I looked. “I had tried many other medicines before getting Tanlac, but nothing gave me more than little passing re- lief. My entire system seemed to be broken down. I could not get but little sleep or rest and was right on the verge of nervous prostration. I believe T would have had to give up entirely in a short time if I had not gotten Tanlac. But now T am like a different woman altogether. 1 can eat just anything I want and every- thing seems to agree with me per- fectly as I never have any more pain, palpitation or any other symptoms of indigestion. In fact, all my pain as well as the nervousness and that weak, worn out feeling, is gone and 1 have also gained ten pounds in weight. Before taking Tanlac 1 would ‘'not hold out to walk a block, but the other day I got out walked fifty.nine blocks, and felt none the worst from it. I have never known a medicine accomplishing such wonderful results as Tanlac. I don’t believe there’s another like it and it gives me pleasure to recommend it.” Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by the City Drug Store, in Kelliher by Mrs. R. Sterling, in Blackduck by French & Moon, in Baudette by J. Williams and William Fox presents tonight at the Rex theatre Tom Mix in *“The Round Up,” a thrilling story of the golden west, produced by the Fox Film Corporation. There will also be shown an L-KO comedy in two parts and the Fox “News Trip,” entitled “Ar ound the ‘World” will also be shown. This Fox special is a weekly added fiiature to the Rex weekly feature bills. and de- picts views of world happen ings, ac- counts of which appear in t he »nress of the country. “ACCIDENTAL HONEYM §ON.” ‘Much that happens to on g in real life happens through accid ent, and accidents are what bring : jhout the big events in “The Accident gl Honey- moon,” which will be see & at the Rex theatre tomorrow and | Wednes- Aner VO an -..Iu._. tea —a - tupir I | | The feature bill at the Rex theatre on New Years day will be William Farnum in “Wolves of the Trail,” in which Farnum will be seen in one of his best productions. “THE TONG MAN” A strikingly graphic revoroduction of a chinese tong room, with the Or- iental highbinders plotting to kill one of their number who has failed to respond to blackmail, is shown in “The Tong Man,” Sessue Hayakawa’s latest production for Robertson-Cole release. It is authentically stated that this Tong room is not a studio built set but real bona-fide Tong room, which was brought to the studio intact from the headquarters of one of the lar- ges.t Tongs on the Pacific coast.

Women are warned against this rule which makes for great emotional stress and domestic misunderstandings. Military matters will occupy the limelight for a time and disastrous rumors will gain credence. Again warning is given of a prevalent illness which will take the form of intestinal disorder. The death of a famous theatrical man and the passing of a great actor will occur almost simultaneously. Persons whose birthdate this is will have an active year. Children born today will be artistic and very extravagant. #Aen Lo 4ls MThaslaw Qundisata Tne.)
