Y., aged 79. i | { HE' most notable event of Van Buren’s administration was the | otcurrence of one of the great panies | from which in the nineteenth century | the country regularly collapsed every 15 of 20 years, as in 1819, 1837, 1851, 181'8 and 1803. Those periodic | trations always followed wild de"No llches in speculation, but since it Is convenient and consoling to blame some one else for our own sins, the | presldenc Invariably has been made the scapegoat in each period of hard times. No doubt Jackson's removal of the | ynbllc deposits from the United | States bAnk caused financial disturb- atce and his distribution of the fed- eral surplus among the state treasur-| fes also was disturbing. The govern- ment, the banks and the people gen- erally had all merrily joined jn sow- ing the wind, whose harvest was the| whirlwind of 1837, The nation had been indulging in/ the first of its big western booms.

Bemidji then started | to smash the Virginia line and in attempts carried the ball to 45-yard-line. A triple four their own |'pass with Higbe at the receiving end and then a 50-yard run netted Be- midji a touchdown. Brooks missed the goal. The gcore at the end of the first quarter as well as the first half was 6 to 0. Second Half. The second half started off with Powell kicking off to Virginia's 10- yard-line, the ball being returned to the 20-yard-line. Three attempts at the Bemidji line failed and then Vir- ginje punted: to the center of the . Higbe fumbleld and Virginia carrying the ball to the e before being brought down by Powell. It was oné of the |incst tense moments of the game for | it lvoked like the runner was gone with a clear field for a touchdown. | A short pass to Larson put the ball | Martin Van Buren. Ruren was the first president-elect to ride in‘n traln even part of the way fo-Washington, and the expansion of | stenm rallway system was begin: nlg, to inflame the national imagl nhtlon. - . ZWhen the @lay of reckoning and re-| morse came; when bread riots broke out; when laborers stood in line near ew. York to get jobs at a wage of month and board; when banks mded payments in coin, and when | . Dimlness, houses were tumbling Into| ikruptcy, the bankers and business | meén, who had always been violently/ antl:Democratle, turned upon Van| Buren und polnted their accusing fin- | §érs af the White House. The Tore- | #108t an of busifiess in conservative New . England, Abbott Lawrence, did| fiot hesitate to hint to a public meet- g in Boston, the Incendlary sugges- tiont: that the time might come for foreible resistance to the government, Qben the crew, as he said, would have| 1to mutiny and seize the ship of state. ‘Van Buren faced the gale without ding. - He rose above political| menvaflng and the temptation to| itter the mad passions of the hour| <-and preserved an attitude of mas- iterful inactlvity! The president did call congress in| extra session, but only to rccnmmend {tlie"adoption of the sub-treasury sys- , . “The banks having falled, he pro- | ’osed that Uncle Sam, like a timid old | iwoman, should lock up his money in| ithe bureau drawer. And the economic| Holly of the sub-treasury was persisted | u.until the establishment of the led<! eral reserve system. It was squally weather all around,| Wwith.the costly Seminole war dragging its slow course through the malarial éverglades of Florida; with embarrass. ing revolutions on hoth sides of us, in the revolted Mexican province of Fexas and in Ontario. | The defeats of the Democratlc tick | ‘et in the off years plainly foreshadow- @4 the ill-starred president’s own de-| feat in his candidacy for r&elecuan\ i 1840, . No prophet was nceded to| ‘write the refrain of the popular cam- ‘paign song of the TWhigs: 1 | | Van! Van! Is a used up man, . ~ Nevertheless Van Buren remained; in| Qfiin politics 10 years. For still an-| athér 10 years -he lived on in retire-| henit at Lindenwold, his country estate fii - his ‘pative village, where he dked the midst of the Cl\‘ll war, on the Bemidji “80-yard-line. The Bemidji line then held like a stone wall for three downs and on the fourth down a Virginia pass was in- complete in the end zone and it was Bemidji’s ball on their own 20-yard- line. Bemidji- then started a steady merch ‘down the field and without once failing to make their distance carried the ball up to Virginia’s 3- yard-line where Brooks smashed thru the Virginit left side of the line for a touchdown. Brooks also kicked goal and the score stood 13 to 0. The third quarter ended soon after. Powell Interscents Pass. In the third quarter with the ball in Virginia’s possession_on their 45- yard line Liucas attempted to pass to Gilmore, Powell interscepted it and raced 50 yards to Virginia's 5-yard- liné-before ,h being brought down. Stapleton smashed off tackleMor two]| yards and then Brooks fumbled going thru the line, Virginia recovering and kicking” out of danger. Higbe returned the -ball to the Virginia 40- yard-line. With Oison, Brooks and Stapleton alternating, Bemidji stead- ginia goal for their last touchdown, ily carried the ball across the Vir- | Olson carrying it over from the 2- yard-lire. Breoks again missed goal and the score stood 19 to 0. Summary. 3 Bemidji Stechman Lord Denu | McDougal Koors Boyce Powell | Higbe | Olson th Stapleton’ ib Brooks, Capt. Score bv Periods.
