GOOD SUGGESTIONS.

A visitor to Bemidji recently
talked as follows to a represent
tative of of a newspaper of that
village:
"The only way to build up a
town is for all to 60 hand in
hand, every man to the wheel.
Danish all feelings of discord,
if any, let harmony prevail. and
you are sure to prosper. Talk
about your town, write abont it,
push it, speak well of it, en-
courage your people at the head
Of municipal affairs, choke the
croakers, beautify the streets in
every way, patronize it's mer-
chants, refrain from sending
outside for goods, advertise in

terprise always and if you can t
think of some good word to say,
keep quiet. You are all hust-
lers-keep it up. Be courteous
to strangers who come among
you, SO they will go away with
a good impression; always cheer
up the men who go in for i'm

HAVING RARE FUN-NIT.
Prom the Rrainerd Dispatch:

Prom the Rrainerd Dispatch:
The Superior Citizen, edited
by H. G. Stivers, formerly of
this city, a few weeks ago, con-
trined the following editorial
squib:
''It will be fun to read the Re-
publican newspapers after the
coming state elections. They
will explain how the political
situation looks viewed from the
head waters of Salt river"
Funny, isn't it, Bro. Stivers:
you must be convulsed with
laughter at the situation, but
the positions seem to be some
what reversed, which makes one
think how like thirty cents a
man can make himself look
when he gets a crazy idea in his
head and imagines everyone else
is equally foolish, and attempts
the role of a political prophet.
You never was a success as a
political prognosticator. Don't
try it any more.

A STARTLING DISCOVERY.
Clothing and Hat Of the Missing and De-
mented John McMahan Found on
the Biver Bank at Brainerd.

Officer Cannon. who has been in
been in Brainertl several days in search
of n clue to the missing John Nc;
Nathan, returned home Monday
morning.
For several days his search was
without success, but he at last found
clue that indicates that the I'M
fortunate man Is the victim of self
destruction. For several days
Officer Cannon in luired from people
who live in the vicinity OF the river,
to ascertain If anyone saw
McMahan there it being
the officers theory that McMahon's
disappearance meant self destruction
When about to give up the search, q
man was fonnd who stated that his
son had found Il cat any vest and
hat on the river bank. The articles
were examined and proved beyond
doubt to be those the missing
man wore when last seen by the
Brainerd hospital authorities, about
one hour before he disappeared, on
Wednesday, Nov. 8. Although the
boy never reported finding the cloth
ing he readily gave all information
he could. He showed the exact
location. The coat and hat We're
hung on u tree near the old Howe
saw mill site in the southern limits,
and a few rods farther down, his hat
was found on stump. A footprint
was also found at the edge Of the
water.
Considering the finding of these
articles and the condition OF Nc
Mahon men tally, there seems to be
very little doubt that he has de-
stroyed himself.
Dynamite was used in the river in
that vicinity but it failed to raise
the body, which if in the river may
have hoated miles down stream.
His relatives believe that if found at
all he will be found in the river and
are making arrangements to engage
IL diver in the hope of finding the
body Def IRE the river freezes.
1t will be q sad blow to his wife
and children who are now their way
to this place from Ireland.

Yes. August Flower still has the

respect to the memory Of one who
was beloved and respected by all, a
large gathering attended the funeral

their las: resting place in lakewood
cemetel. Everything that SYM
pathet friends could do to assuage
the grief Of the afflicted family was

A wreath of flowers was the gift OF

ton.
Emory p. Warren, son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ira l.. Warren, was born on
Oct. 20, 1873, in the city Of East
Saginaw, Mich. At the age Of ;
years. he became sadly afflicted, los
ing his hearing and speech through
an attack of whoOping cough. He
entered the Michigan institute for
the deaf and dumb at the age of 8
years, and attended that institution
until he WAS Is years OF age. In 1891
his parents removed to Little Falls.
and Emory entered the F,ribault
school for the deaf and dumb, Grndu-
ating in 1896. After leaving school
he was employed for sometime by
the Pine Tree Lumber company.
Last June he went to Minneapolis,
where he was employed for Il time in
1t shoe factory. Leaving that place
he made a trip through Northern
Michigan, and from there he went to
Winton, Mimi, and was there in the
employ OF the Fall Lake Lumber
company, when he met his sad and
sudden death.
He was an exceptionally bright
young man . notwithstanding his
;lttlictiOn, ;ln hi kind, loving and
cheerful disposition endearcd him to
all with whom he became ac-
Quainted. Mr.. and Mrs. Warren's
family consisted OF five children, four
OF whom have grown to manhood.
This is the first break in the family
circle and the sudden death Of Emory
makes it an exceptionally sad blow
to the bereaved family.

The news comes from Grand
Forks that 4 number of cap
italists have formed a company,
known as the Gre at Northern
Canal and Transportation com
pany, for the purpose of build
ing 4 canal from the Red river
to Lake Superior.
There is no connection with
the Great Northern railroad.
The president of the company
is G.. McGown, examiner, of
Trenton, N. j., and now head
of the big rubber trust. The
local attorney, Ledrue Guthrie,
of Grand Rapids, states that

men are in the deal, but will
not divulge their names. The
capitalization Of the com pany is

vided as necessary. A prelim-
mary survey will be started
within two weeks, and the work
will continue as far as possible
through the winter months.
All preparations are made,
and the route is decided. It
will pass from Red river to Red
lake, and from thence to the
minor lakes of the region, max
ing use of the Mississippi on the
way. There will be from 800 to
400 miles OF straight cutting to
