POLITICS

Park Rapids Enterprise: J. J.
Jinkinson of Bemidji spent Tues
day in the city on business. Jack
has prospered since he left Park
Rapids and still has to make a
yearly pilgrimage hither to pay
taxes on realty which he owns in
the northern part of the county.
Mr.. Jinkinson has been urged to
run for sheriff Of Beltrami county
but intimated to the Enterprise
man that he was much more
likely to enter the lists for county
treasurer.
The numerous filings which
have been made for register Of
deeds, it is argued, will make the
nomination of Matt Phibbs practi.
calIy certain. Mr. Phibbs has the
advantage Of being better known
than any of the other candidates
and of having discharged the
duties of the Office in the past
with conspicuous ability and rare
fidelity.
In order that itmay geta plenty
while it is getting, no town likes
to be too forward in claiming can
didates, and It's reported that
Blackjack feels that County ire
asurer French should be credited
to Bemidji rather than to it, al
though Mr. French never lived
here until his election from Black
duck.
County Treasurer French feels
comparatively certain Of his no.
mination. According to general
custom Mr. French is entitled to
the nomination and his record
during the few months that he
has held the office is one that
proves conclusively that this i'm
portant Office is in able hands.
Congressman Buchanan is out
with vigorous interview in.
which he predicts Robert c.
Dnnn's election as governor by
the largest majority ever given a
candidate for governor in Mime
sofa. 1t won't cost Mr.. Dunn
anything but his reputation for
accuracy to retaliate in kind.

The attics of Bradford and vicinity
are about to contribute to the educa-
ton of the Boston children says the
opinion. At a request from James

a large number of the ancient spinning
wheels with which the old homes along
the Connecticut valley are so well
stored. The different parts, as swifts
clock reels, spools, quilts, quill wheels
and spool frames are to be used as
drawing models. A number Of old hand
looms are to go with the spinning

A Helpful Bit of knowledge.

My mothers sight has failed so that
threading a needle is a task almost be-
yond her. After an absence from
home I learned that a young friend
having seen her difficulty had helped
her over this little obstacle by thread
ing her needles. She simply took the
spool of thread and a paper of needles.
and without breaking the thread
threaded the whole paper of needles
as one would string beads. When
needIeful of thread was desired, all
that was necessary was TO take the
first needle. draw off as long a thread
as desired, fasten the outside needle
to the spool and leave ready for next
time. This is one of the most helpful
little bits of knowledge l have seen
The dear grandmother doesn't like to
have to follow someone around the
house with her needle and thread
whenever the thread runs out A
cushion full of threaded needles, which
is next best. is always in danger OF
taneling. and this offers a solution of
what seems a little point. but is re-
ally a great one. Inspire the little
daughter of the household to do this
or some other little act Of helpfulness
for the aged relative or friend--Phila

timony Saturday, Martell said that

kill Root, he wanted 1t done right away.
He said he heard Bean offer Frank Bu-
chanan. his white mare If he, Blu
chanan, would kill Root. Mrs. Maggie
Belden said Bean came to her house
one day and told her that detective
would give her $50 if she would tell
what she knew about the relations be-
tween Root and the woman over whom
Root and Bean are said to have quar-
relied. George Chatfield of Hancock

to the Green place and say he was
detective from Connecticut. He was to
see Root and warn him to leave the
Greens, or he would be ''tarred and
feathered" The witness was also to
see Mrs. Green, and deliver to her a
message of the same purport. Then he
was to go to the near by house of Mrs
Lucy Wiley, and tell her the same thing
in substance. The respondent fur

him SO for doing the errand.

MEETING of legislative Farmers.

The Vermont farmers legislative or
ganization met at Burlington Thurs
day and adopted a number of recon-
mendations looking towards the ulti-
mate betterment of farmers, as seen by
the members of the organization. The
organization was formed at Montpelier
at the last session of the legislature
and is composed of about $50 members,
only members of the Vermont legisla-
ture being eligible to membership. The
recommendations adopted included one
urging the establishment of a state
dairy school building to be built at
Burlington, They also recommended
that the state tax be increased from 5
to 10 per cent, it being the idea of the
members that more permanent roads
could be built and better travel thus
assured the farmers. They also rec
commended that the existing tax laws
be revised so that the question of
double taxation be eliminated.
