A Monument to Ba,nidii

The people Of Bemidji are talking Of
urging the next legislature to make an
appropriation for a monument to be
erected TO the memory of the late Chief
bemldI. The people of Bemidji think
maj tne state owes it to the late red
man to take official notice of his pass
lng' because he has always been a
friend to the whites and never failed

Perllous times. It is claimed that he
was very influential in preventing the
Ch'ppewas from joinigg the Sioux in
'mHssacring the settlers at the time of
the uprising in 1861 while most of the
neads OF families among the white set
Tiers were away IN the Union army. It
was Chief Bemidji's dying wish that
the whites extend to his grandson
Black Toungle, aged ten years. the
same kindly attention. that they had
always shown him.

INSIDE, followed by burst of hySterical
laughter.
Completely overwhelmed, the re-
porter leaned against the wall for sup
port. In. spite of his unusual nerve he
found himself weak and trembling.
The clerk and the young nurse were
shut up together with some strange
power, and Millard was unable to gain
admittance. The unexpected had COM
pletely upset him for a moment.
The reporter turned and walked
down the hall for fear of attracting
attention. In case he caused any dis
turbance the other papers would get
the story. The very thought made
him recoil. He had come expecting
everything to turn out as he had
planned it, but instead he had scented
far better story. He had the mur-
derer and-a mystery. For a second
he hesitated. The time was flying and
he still had McDuff to catch.
AS he stood in the shadow at one
end OF the cold hail., he noticed an
other nurse CROSS the corridor. -. She
entered the room which the other
young woman had left, but finding it
empty, moved to the next door, opened
1t and went inside. Willard stared in
blank surprise. -. s
AT the other end of the hall his eyes
wandered to large clock. It was $50.
IN half an hour the forms would be
locked. The story was ready in his
pocket, but the new turn of events
mad changed matters considerably.

sENsELESs SPEED.

At cost of two men killed, two
wounded and the rights of 100000 peo
pie shamecssly outraged, Paris man
ufacturcr Of death-engines has demon
strated that an automobile can be run
50 miles an hour over roads never in
tended for that purpose.
To that end the Long Island race
wa pronounced a success. In every
other respect it was only an exhibi
tion of degenerate recklessness that
ought to be made criminal.
The course WAS covered only by the
most desperate driving, with fatal and
destructive results If this is to be the
future of the automobile, it would bo
well to make the future brief.
There are no highways suitable for
such speed. None can be constructed
upon which such speed will be safe.
The automobile is not necessity 1t
it destined to become such, but only
under conditions of sanity and safety.
The effect of spced-madnes' must be
to increase popular antagonism to the
automobile as dangerous intruder
upon roads built for common use.
The yacht race develops new princi.
pies in all shipbuilding. The horse
race develops the higher breeding of
all horses. But the automobile race
|
introduces no new principle in meehan-
les and leads to nothing but reckless
disregard of public rights on all high.
