In the second half the Bemidji boys braced and one touch down was made by Grand Rapids.

Romans and Peterson at left atackle and end »layed a good game and Bemidji’s runs around their end fell short on every occasicn.

Every business man in the county should’ be interested in the development of our county. We have today a vast army of home- steaders struggling hard to convert a virgin forest into a farming district. Asitis at present the development of the homestead is very slow because of the condition of our roads. We must have assistance; where are we to get it from? Only from the source from which it isdueus. Ever since this county was organized we have been paying a large portion of our taxes annually to the state, but we have never received any assistance from the state todevelop the county. Not until recently has there been any demand for assistunce from the state, but now there is a demand for assistance. Last winter a com- mittee of farmers from the upper section (f’ this county called on Mr. Cole, one of our representatives, and asked him to do something towards getting an appropriation for roads so that. they could get to and from their homes with teams. ‘They now carry their supplies in pack sacks, One of the party who went to see Mr. Cole informed the writer that that gentieman said he was too busy then and could do nothing for them. The matter was then taken up with Sen- ator O. N. Moston who promised to do what ne could, but we have not yet heard of anything having been done. Other couaties get appropri- ations from [ihe state every year, to improve their roads and build ditches Who not Itasca county? Because you have no representative in the state house. This county has many thousands of dollars due it from the state, money that we should have had from year to year for the pur- pose of building roads and ditches. Are you interested in the develop- ment of your county? Do you waut the money that is due you frum the state for the development of your county? Then if sv vote for John Lefevre, the ltasca couuty candidate for the legislature, and have a repre- seatative who, like yourself, has an in- terest in the development of Itasca county. CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE. It is Diphtheria. The report has been circulated that the home of A. A. Kremer was unne- cessarily quarantined for diphtheria by Dr. Gilbert, which does the doctor an injustice. ‘The following telegram from Dr. F. F.
