OEFFPICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS OUTDOING THE TWEED GANG Chicago promises an exposure that will equal or excel th«~ political corruption; unearthed'in New York City. during’ the Tweed .regime. To the Northwest, Chicago is more than a great American ecity. ‘Its trade talons reaches dut to this territory and to a certain degree -our commercial activities are dependent on the corqpetizicn.genémted by that ¢ity. ' To that extent, we-are more than mereé curi- ous bystanders. - If graftand greed and corruption restricts her: activities, a vast territory is affected. Therefore, the move to clean up the town is. of particularinterest: . » It is charged that never before in the history of &« the city has there been such:a looting of funds; hawking of privileges; evasion of laws, betrayal of trusts and connivance at crime. “The crimes include,” editorially says the Chi- eago Tribune, “‘offensés by negro police officers against white women; the shaking down of busi- ness houses, blackmail of publi¢ utilities, division of loot with newspapers, robbéry of local improve- ment funds, attempted corruption of the judiciary, attempted bribery of the legislature, toleration of a wide-open saloon town in spite of law, the en- couragement of black-an-tan vice in the most im- moral mixture of the races the town ever has seen, the falsification of income tax returns and many other. depredations.” That sounds as if there were plenty for the re- form element to do. ’ “The stute has had,” continues The Tribune, “the spectacle of Small, its.governor through the grace of Mayor Thompson, running hither and yen:to. es- cape the sheriff of Sangamon county with:a war-" rant for his arrest upon an indictment charging embezzlement of state funds. It now has the spec: ‘tacle of this governor.rejoicing . because legalistic technicalities have relieved him of some counts-in the indictment and because the prosecution - pre- fers to prosecute the charge of conspiracy, instead of embezzlement.” 7w “inclined to treat it in a trifling manner. It looks like a busy year for Cook connty,courts. §——§ ¢ ? Good evening! -Have you sent in your nomina-’ “tion for state senator yet? That's like the question asked of the fellow: “Is your father living yet?” His answer was: “No, not yet.” §—§ A daily paper has been established in Jerusalem. We were wondering why Gene Berman wanted a job as reporter. It’s all right, Gene, we'll make room for you, now that we know. 4 -~ A‘GOVERNOR’S STRONG APPEZL Oue of the most unique proclamations sent forth by a public official was that issued recently. by Governor:J. A; 0. Preus of Minnesota bearing upon the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment. It rang true and clear. No one reading it can have the. slightest doubt as to' that official’s attitude to- ward law enforcement. The final words of the proclamation read: “The instrument which safeguards the welfare of the United States is our Constitution. In pro- portion as. it is weakened in subject-matter or de- prived of the allegiance of our geu'ple, everything ‘“good and safe in the land is endangered. . Loyalty to the Qopstitution and whole-hearted obedience to ts provitions are essential to our.very existence as 4imhtion. Therefore, I, J. A. O. Preus, governor of Minnesota, earnestly appeal to- all citizens of nnésota ‘0" give the prohibition laws ! portin a whole-hearted and determined way. The task of-putting-them-in force is well worthy of our best endeavor.”. 3 s b et Now that is doing business.. -We .know. of no. other governor who: has accorded. the subject of law enforcement as;it applies toiprohibition of the liquor traffic a separate and distinct. deliverance. It is splendid. Would that all our: governors might lift their voices likewise against the iniquitous traf- fic and trafficker. Not};ing;wouid more effectually quench the flow of liquor and.that right speedily. Minnesota is to be congratulated upon the boldness of its governor.—Northern Christian Advoeater. §e———F HOW ABOUT THE RENT HOG? Wonder if we have any in Bemidji? Sure, every- thing else is down, except the thermometer, why not rents? y 55 The other day a friend of ours stated that he was paying $35 a month rent for a-house wiich. rented for $18 before the war. ‘No:sane man will deny.that his rent ought to be reduced, but not perhaps down to $18 a month. We would suggest that $25 would be a fair price to both renter and owner. No one ‘to”our’ knowledge. has. been accused. of rent profiteering ‘in Bemidji and we express' the hope that.there will be no need ;of an iuvegtigafion, Bemidji landlords have a good reputation and there js no reason ‘why they -shoul§ not retain-it, even though it becomes nccessary to'make reasonable cuts in house rent. : §—§ D SPRING 1S HERE? Spring has come. Robins_are.back in Bemidji. Our last report was that they were headed south near Jacksonville, and still going. Now comes C. E. Battles ready to take oath before a notary pub- lic that he saw one in his yard Monday noon.. If it were not for the fact that Mrs. Battles also saw the robin with her own eyes, we might have been The fact remains, the robin is in Bemidji, but where it has been . during our short winter weeks, the robin does ‘not say. §———F6 “Let me live in a house by the side of the road, Where the race-of men go by; They are good, they are bad, they arc weak,*they are strong. Wise, fuolish; so am I. Then why should I sit in the scorner’s seat or hurl the cynic’s ban? Let me live in a house by the side of-the road, And be a friend of man."—Exchrénge. §——§ Somewhere about New Year’s Eve .a regular “devil” chased a bunch of dxx_ncérs out of a dance hall near Hutchinson, a resort known as Marion Lake. They beat it, orchestra. and all, pell-mell, < through doors and windows. Our; printer’s devil " says, “he must have scared hell out of ’em.” Yes, we have a pretty bright devil. ~ §——%§ The “Pioneer’s” puck-chasing. team seems to be making quite a record for itself. We have never seen them play, but we’ll issue a challenge to any other newspaper in the northwest, on the strength of ‘the name.
