I OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEED:NGS BELTRAMI COURTS IMPOSED UPON The district court at Bemidji closed its session recently| with a case which consumed several days and finally gave a verdict for the plaintiff for $15,000. The particular feature about this trial is that the plaintifl lives in another state, the ac- cident which caused the injury over which the trial was held took place in another state, yet the plaintiff, according to the statutes of Minnesota, has the privilege of bringing his case into Beltrami county for trial and foisting uvon this county an ex- pense. of anywhere from $500 to $1,000, for which it is in no way reimbursed and in which the people of the county have no interest whatever: {0 b » This is not right. Beltrami county has no right to have to| bear the expense of a trial of a case which has no connection whatever with the affairs of the county. Because the defendant happened to be a transportation company, wWhose lines ran through Beltrami county, the case is permitted by law to be tried in this county and we pay the bill while the plaintiff gets away with $15,000. Perhaps he was entitled to it. The:jury considered he was, and we have no disposition to dispute their judgment, but we should have some say as to ' whether anyone, who has a case against a transportation or public service com- pany, may bring all their troubles into court in Beltrami county to have them tried because, in their judgment or in the judg- ment of their attorney, there is a good chance of getting a jury which will give a verdict against the corporation. This thing was done once before in Beltrami county, and a similar verdict| obtained, although ihe parties concerned lived outside of the county. . We have enough cases in Beltrami county to try, which properly belong to Beltrami county, without having to bear the burden of a trial which in no way affects‘the citizens of the county. There is a chance for some one to start something and| see if action cannot be obtained to remedy the law which; is manifestly unfair, SESRRIPE S President Clark of the Fair ‘Association has some vision. He wants the Bemidji Fair called the International Exhibition, and is ready to invite our Canadian cousins into the show. Fine idea.

Althongh the Pilgrim pageant at Plymouth, Mass., was properly enough somewliat austere in tone, the audi- ence on the opening night had a hearty laugh that presumably was never in- tended by the author and director, Prof. George Pierce Baker. In the spe ular scene in which King James is shown denying the non-conformist petition . for religious freedom, even the thoughtless, fun-seeking boys of Scrooby village are shown taking ‘up the tenor of the royal threat to harry out of England those who afterward founded a new commonwealth in Mas. sachusetts. Two Plymouth young- sters, who had evidently been urged by the director to put more vigor into their pursuit of the Pilgrims, and who had done their full share in the bar- rying, ran‘ toward each other. “We got him that time!” cried one early Seventeenth century youth. He appeared to have forgotten that the audience might hear him. So did the other, who responded fervently: “I'll say we did!” - Minnows and Yellow Fever. _An incipient epidemic of yellow placing top minnows (Gambusia) in the ponds and cisterns. At the out- break of the disease 600 men were kept constantly employed putting crude oil on the ponds and marshes, and the use of oil on the cisterns and barrels containing rain-water, which is the only source of water supply for the Mexican population, caused seri- ous dissatisfaction, It was found that a few minnows in each water container would eradicate ‘the mosquito Iarvae. 'The fish have entirely replaced crude oil as a yel- low-feyer. preventive, the natives are highly pleased at the change, and the reduction in expense amounts to $3,- week.—Popular 000 a Science Monthly. | LIGHT «“Buzzer Is a man who always weighs his words isn’t he?” dyes, but it takes a deuce of a lot of 'em to weigh anything.” Use of Fuel Oil for Power.

Why Englishmen Proudly Welcome the Statue of George Washington By LORD. CURZON, .in Acceptance Address. ¢ v/Bome may ask why it is that Englishmen gladly and ‘proudly. welcome this statue of Washington in Trafalgar square. The-answer. is-this:- Because: he mogqf,hat ever-lived; because, though he fought us \ api"' anquished us, “he-was fighting for- ideals; and »pyincifles which are as sacred to us as they are to the oY Yy n people; and which are embedded in'the very our ‘common race. : #Plie statue.is a symbol and a sign. It is a mark of the fact that the two branches of the.great English- speaking race are now and henceforth indissolubly one. Itjs now more than a hundred years since we last fought, and that conflict was one of which none of us are proud and of which some of us are very much ashamed. We.can never fight again. I should like to add that we can never quarrel again. We ought never to quarrel again. The idea is such that if any- hody got up on a public platform and uttered it in this country he would be hooted from-the place I.believe and hope that the same sentiments prevail in your country. ' But not merely can your nation and mine en- gage never to fight and never to quarrel; we can do a great deal to pre- vent other nations from fighting. That, I submit, js _the main function and duty that lies upon us in the'future.
