McPartlin of International Falls as a candidate for the senate from the Bel- trami-Koochiching ‘district, again illustrates the ne- fl'sslty of Beltrami getting behind a canrhdate for i the position. In the light of calm, unemotional renson, we fail to ‘see the. justice of permitting: the senatorship to again go to the:border city. '!(oochicking vhu hag-the senator; and so long as that county is linked with our ownm,' it certainly woiild ‘only be but-fair-play to change about and surely there are many voters:in ! Kobehiching county ' who will sanction sw.h an arrangement. .1t would be passing strange if the larger city of lemidji and the moré-populous- county of Beltrami were to “agiin ‘permit this represematmn to: get —— awdy, from us. i While it isn’t fipemtwe that the new senator should be.a resident of Bemidji, it may be, regard- el as,a_general conclusion that sich might well'be tfie case, bécauge ‘nere the mterests of the entire district: are most deflMtely ceritralized and because & t}lere are many 'nfen and wonien competent to exe- et cute the duties of this important. office. These are the fundamental facts of the situation. Whh the spirit of fairness that exists in Koochiching and with the lirger number of ‘votes in Be]trnmi it nhn to the npper branch’ of: the leglsht\lre would beia sihp]e Pprocedure. ) ,The yinthemn» 3 dniger ‘that ‘our own forces may be divided and that where:harmony should exist, there is anything but harmony. If Bemidji and Beltrami county can agree on 3 wonhy pemn, fully competent and big enough to A be, elected.” | At this early. period of the game, a definite, de- sirable candidate can be decided upon; it is up to the citizens who believe Bemidji «and Beltrami copnty- should. have, for the first time, a personal representative in the senate. Let’s not spill the beans and let’s not go into any sort of a necdléss controversy thit will jeopardize the chance of realizing our ambition along thli line,; So far as The Pioneer is concerned, it is groom- ing no individual; it is ready to support any man Tlpsday of each weel to insure publication in the cur- meaaure up to the req\nrements, such a person can* worthy of support—but we do feel that Beltrami county is entitled to and should have the senator- ship. §———§ STAMPING OUT FLIVVERS Whereéver civilized man travels there you will find a flock ‘of flivvérs. They buzz around, summer and winter, like bees in a clovet field, and ‘nore being turned out right now than-ever before. You'll al- most think everybody was sufl‘erlng from flivver complaint. Still Henry Ford isn't satisfied; he wants to make better cars cheaper and quicker. Robert Babson called on Henry the other day and found him_ fussing aroun a putty-like sub- stance. Henry explains that' it was composed of a mixture of formsldehyde, nd cotton. - “And what are¢ you inte ,p do wuh :t"" ask- ed Babson. . ~ “Make autamoblles," r k- "o In’his’ desire’to work ]1 tex and c‘heaper car, Henry‘has’gong to cot out a mix- ture for cottonoid—a durd] lnng-wenrmgr material. If he is suqcesslnl Mm!l, in time, block out automobiles much; after the mannex that i,‘cook 5 stamps out doughnutd, AR Mr. Ford makes no effort to co ceal his belief: that his present efforts will result ina greater revo- lution in the automobile industry than has his fliv- ver. He believes that the day of the heavy auto- mobile, with its surplus” of gas-eating weight; is 2bout doomed. So he dreams of a ur lighter, than ever hefore imagined.: i He may do it. Seventeen years ago. he was walk- ing the streets of Detroit trying to get credit for a turkey to grace his hohday table; today ‘he has 123 millions of dollars to his crédit in_the bank. Youcan’t tell what such.a man may. do. The doughnnt model is “on the way. will eat it up.
