The First City Election.

The First City Election.
SINCE the adoption Of the char
ter by tremendous popular ma
jority there seems tobe no faultto
be found with that document, ex-
cept that those who opposed it's
adoption are now excessively
worried for fear that there is no
way to set the city government
a-going. To ease the minds Of
our friends, the enemy, we will
say.
LIST. That the charter provides
that the election November Z
shall be "called, conducted and
canvassed" by the present village
council. (Chapter II, section g.
End That the charter provides
that the general election laws of
the state, so far as they are appl-
cable, shall apply to all elections
held under the charter Chapter
II, section g.
3rd. That the primary election
law does not apply to the city of
Bemidji inasmuch as the primary
election law does not apply to any
municipal election in any city in
Minnesota under 10000 popula-
ton (Section 2 Chapter session

We are conidentthat when the
charter is in operation and Be-
midi is organized as city we
shall all be glad that it is so. One
of the chief arguments made
against the charter was that it
provided a large number of heavy
salaries. We have already shown
that the charter provides for
practically no salaries at all. In
this it is like to most other home
rule charters. An able editorial
in yesterdays Duluth News
Tribune calls attention to the fact
that the city is being admins.

fits which Bemidji may expect

Sunday. The little son of Mr.. Sarnica,
who runs restaurant near The Madison

into the water and soon the endangered

knight of the road proceeded on his way
without enlighening anyone as to his

Boiled Cider.

Some interesting figures 10 regard tc
the advantages OF boiling cider before
putting il on the market have been re.
peatedly quoted by the agricultural
papers and yet are surprise TO most OF
Us. The Country Gentleman says
Boiled cider is always staple, worth
about 81 u gallon. Now, forty five
gallon c4sk of sweet cider, worth 81, will
yield $l5 Deducting The price of cheap
wood in the process, and other expenses,
leaves at least a d. Zen dollars net on
each eask Of sweet cider.
A contributor 10 Farm and Fireside
says: 1.-THE suggestion is not bad, but
unfortunately comes little late. Boiled
cider will Keep almost for an inde finite
length Of time, and surely it will sell, il
properly put up, and fl red for sale. |
might have made thirty or forty casks of
cider without making more than half an
effort, and with good pre- fit-evapora-
iion pans,eic could have produced sew
era hundred dollars worth of boiled
cider. 1t takes but very little time to
make IT, and far less room 10 store IT
than vinegar, and brings far more money
when sold. The idea will keep, how, yer,
until the rext apple year.

1t was not by accident that violet
was chosen by many nations as the ex-
elusive color for mourning and by US
also for half mourning. Painters SUI
ferinG from hysteria and neurasthenia
will be inclined to cover thea pictures
uniformly with the color most in ae-
cordance with their condition of lassi-
tude and exhaustion. Thus originate
the violet pictures of Manet and bis
school, which spring from no actually
observable aspect Of nature, but from
a subjective view due to conditions of
the nerves. When the entire surface
of walls in salons and art exhibitions
of the day appears yelled in uniform
