Official County and City Paper.


Bemidii Tidende, which means
in the English language, BemldJl
Times, is the name of a NorWe-
gian paper that is being clrcu-
lated in this county by local poll
ticians. K. P. Wig, a saloon
keeper of Bemidji, is publisher.
Anton Gordon, a local candidate
for office, is said to be the chief
promoter. The paper will be
published three times before the
primary election and then die.
Here is the way it was gotten up:
Anyone who wished to pay $50,
more or less, could become inter-
ested in the paper and would be
given a right to say in it whatever
he wished, but only one candi-
date for each office could thus
buy interest in the 'lidende. "
Here is a list of the stockholders:
A. B. Hazen, Fl. j. Loud, Hal
vor Steenerson, Albert B. John
son, Oliver J. Shinn, E. j. Swed.
back, Anton Gordon, D. l.. Syl-
vester.
The "Tidende'' is anything but
a legitimate journal. 1t resorts
to the abuse of those seeking Of
flee who are not stockholders, and
who, in most instances are not
familiar with the Norwegian
tongue. It says things it would
not dare to say in English-in the
pure Anglo-Saxon language
and things it has said, beneath
the blanket of a foreign tongue,
it is likely to be called upon to
prove. The "Tidende" illus
trates at once the wisdom Of the
serpent and the harmlessness OF
the dove. It makes charges
against a drinking man for office,
that is, the drinking man who has
no stock in the "Tidende." But
its inconsistency is so plain when
it is known that it's editor is a
saloon keeper on Third street
that no more explanation is nec-
essary. But, throwing aside the
underhandedness of the project,
it does an injustice to some Of
those who are part of it, for
some of them allege that they
expected to see the Tidende ad-
vocating some nobler purpose
than it does. But the funniest
thing of all is thot the promoters
are beginning already to deny
having anything at all to do with

While w. F. Street no doubt
has many enemies in the county,

The School Chart Graft.

, O. E. Bailey, candidate for the re-
publican nomination for county
school superintendent, sold a
"Cooley" chart to school district No.
8, which cost the district in principal
and interest, over s44. Bankers will
please take notice that there is a
liberal discount and a good rate of
interest on such school orders. A
word to the wise is sufficient and a
boost at the primary election can be
reciprocated.

DEPEW'S IDEA As To ELECriNG
SENATOR'S.

Election Of senators by popular vote
will not come. II has practically failed
in the senat where Il has always been
defeated. The will Of the people is
thwarted by the fellows elected by leg
islators for six years. The contention
steadily grows that there is less danger
OF corruption and rascality in a popu-
lar election than in an election by a
small body called a legislature IL De-
pew's point were to De regard as cor
rect then the preference for a popular
process to choose senator's would be
dropped in several southern states. The
New York senator held that IL senators
are to be elected by popular vote the
ballot must be open to all of those who
are recognized as ,itizen by the consti-
tuition OF the United States There are
three or more northern states that have
an educational test. In the south the
illiterate negro voters are to be elimi-
mated. Depew would have these vote
for United States senators. II that
elections by popular vote for senator's.
If Depew is right a. TO senators why
shall it not apply equally to representa-
tives? Depew gave notice that he
would press the matter If the question
OF popular election OF senators was
provided for. He wants all 10 vote. OF
both races and however ignorant and
unlettered il there shall be change OF
method Between Depew's conclusion
in the senate and Crumpacker's efforts
in the house the south will fair badly
in the end if they shall succeed. If you
elect senators otherwise than by legis-
lures you must also elect representa-
tives and give universal suffrage to all
classes and conditions. the lettered and
ignorant.

"A EVIL

One of the peculiar. strange things
among northern church paI.ers is their
p~roneness to fail to understand the
southern situation. They blunder when
ever they write OF the south, and really
are not accurately informed as to the
real conditions existing, as they are
Of conditions in China or Corea. Read
this from the Boston Congregationalist:
North Carolina, Wyoming and Colo
rado citizens lynched negroes last week.
The time for sectional criticism on this
matter has passed. 1t is a national
evil" The brief comment OF the
Charlotte Standard is to the point ex-
actly: Exactly SO. And a national evil
can only be cured by national protest
against the crime which lynching
avenges." People in the north, wen
in New England, will do as the south
does under equal provOcation. II they
had S.OOO,O 900 Of negroes, n Boston was
blessed with 100,0 900 or more, the whites
would hang as freely in 1902, as Mas
sachusetts hanged most cruelty old wo-
men once as witches. The Messenger
for years has told the better class OF
negroes and the ignorant northern en-.
ourager of rapes and murders in the
south, that if they would cease to de-
fend scoundrels and cause the crimes
to cease that Judge Lynch's occupation
would be gone and the court in the
woods would adjourn sine die. And
all this would happen. Lynchings
are indeed a national evil" n not
strictly southern.
