OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS _ e e—————————————— APOLOGIES TO CLEARBROOK If the Clearbrok boosters, who visited Bemidji last Sunday, are to get the impression that the live wires in Bemidji turned out to greet them they must have concluded that there was only{ one institution in the city that wasn’t dead. That thirty-five auto| loads of our neighbors from the hustling little city of Clearbrpok should send word ahead that they would be here in force at a| certain hour for a friendly visit and be met on the road by 'one | lonely auto with one lonely man in it seems an unthinkable wel- come for Bemidji to be guilty of giving, and yet those are the actual facts of the matter. * What in the world would a similar number of Bemidji citi- zens think if they were to announce to Clearbrook that thirty- five auto loads of the membership of the Civic and Commerce asgociation would arrive in their'town at a certain hour for a vigit'and Postmaster: Atlnderson of Clearbrook .or some, other| single individual be on and to greet them? ' No, we can’t imag-| ine such a situation. They do not do things that way in Clear-| })rook. The chances are the Clearbrook band would be out in| orce and all the townspeoble to greet the Bemidji visitors. | We apologize for the reception, we have no excuses to! make, we fell down and we fell down very badly, but- we do| take our hats off to Koors Brothers who acted as hosts to the| whole bunch and they did it right royally and unstintingly. The only suggestion we have to offer is that we make up for the in-{ hospitality of Sunday by sending one of the biggest delegations to Clearbrook next Saturday on the occasion of the big celebra-! tion there that Bemidji has ever sent to represent her. The| Clearbrook brothers came here to advertise the celebration—let | us see to it that their trip was not in vain, i i) PRI 0% SHALL WE CELEBRATE OR NOT? ‘ . The question confronting Bemidji today-is whether we| shall provide a program for the Fourth of July, or whether we should go elsewhere to celebrate. It is an important issue. We. are’ of the opinion that the business men of Bemidji wint to dé what our neighbors want us to do. If they look to Bemidji to stage a vrogram and the farmers and townspeople from this section want to come here to celebrate, we say, by all means do| not disappoint them. The problem seems to be to get the right kind of concerted action behind the Bemidji celebration, and un- lesg this can be done, and a first-class celebration in every re- spect.is staged, we say let’s go elsewhere. There is no use vin do- If we do decide to go elsewhere, why not split up and go. | Get a line on the celebrations about Bemidji and send good| sized delegations to each. No one little city can take care of all| of us ond there are enough of us to split up into parties, so that} each neighboring community can be visited by a representa; tion from the metropolis of ‘the north. By so doing,.we can| create a warm brotherly, feeling with all communities and per-| haps accomplish as much real good for Northern Minnesota as by celebrating here. Whatever we do, let us get busy. We are| for the kind of celebration that will bring the greatgstireturns\ to Northern Minnesota. b | Ot 1] THE MINNEAPOLIS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA | ‘After weeks of negotiations it now looks as if Minneapolis; is to loose her nationally renowned symphony orchestra through differences between the Orchestral association, which is prac-| tically the financial backing of the orchestra. and the Musicians’| union, Officials of the Musicians’ union declared that the Sym-| phony orchestra could not play at Lake Harriet this year as the Oréhestral association had contracted with a non-union band to give concerts during the summer. | The Minneapolis Symphony orchestra had reached a stage| of national fame under the directorship of Emil Oberhoffer, and | it Had really formed the musical attraction of the Twin Cxties.§ It #s most unfortunate that such an organization, after twenty vears of increasing success, should in this way have to l}e aban- | doned. It not only will be a great loss to the cities of Minner apdlis and St. Paul, but it will be a keenly felt loss to the entire| state and northwest, for who is there who has not looked fpr-l ward to going to the cities during the comncert season to enjoy one of its concerts? E OVERHEARD BY EXCHANGE EDITOR PUBLIC AND PRIVATE MANAGEMENT The fact that the railroads of the country have not been prospering since | the resumption of private control is often cited as a reason why the opera- tion!of the properties by the government should be made permanent. Those who take this view overlook the fact that under government management | the roads lost money fasted than they have done before or since. If com-| parative losses are to be accepted as a basis, therefore, the argument is allf’ i on the side of private management. But there are other facts which have a decided bearing on the situation which also are usually overloked. One of these is the increase in labor costs. Just before relinquishing control of the roads the government added some $700,000,000 a year to their payrolls. It is to be remembered that the | government did not operate this increased cost, except possibly for a very | brief period. But this addition to costs was passed on to the private owners| with their resumption of control.—Grand Forks Herald. e | | A city not far away/has the following sign boards for ‘the ‘benefit of | motorists: “Dry slowly and view ol city; dty fast and view our jail” The | author may have been a joker, but we are inclined to the belief that the word | ‘“dry” is intended for drive.—Stillwater Gazette. i \d I LSRN b Polygamy may not be a crime in every state, as the Presbyterian assem! | bly proposes. but it is always one of those follies which are worse than: crimes.—St. Paul Pioneer Press. ‘The name‘ of the prjvatc yacht owned by Stillman, the New York bnnk; er of divorce notoriety, is Modesty, but don't giggle.
