CAN'T GET 1T All.

There is a very general i'm
preston throughout the county
that the state drainage commits
sion has appropriated $4,000 to
Beltrami county for drainage.
We regret that this is not the
case, but the general rejoicing
which the mistake has caused
shows that the people of the
county are alive to the urgent
need of drainage.
The legislature last winter APP
propriated $4,000 for drainage,
making $4,000 per year for the
entire state. Beltrami county
has been promised ditch by the
state drainage commission upon
which several thousand dollars
will probably be spent but of
course the county could not ex-
poetic get the entire appropria-
ton.
It would we'll repay the state
to spend $4,000 every twoyears
during the next decade for drain
age in northern Minnesota. The
state has got to do it some time
and the sooner the people Of this
part Of the state agitate in earn
est for it the quicker we shall
get it. 1t is bound to come.
