Will Not Offset the III Effects of Coffee

when l went to the field to work

almost everything I could get for my
stomach in the way of medicine, but

Zone day I read an ad for Postum
and told my wife l would try it, and
as to the following facts l will make
affidavit before any judge:
II quit coffee entirely and used
Postum in its place. l have regained
my health entirely and can eat any
thing that is cooked to eat. I have
increased in weight until now I weigh
more than l eve did; I have not
taken any medicine for my stomach
since / began using Postum. Why, ]
believe Postum will almost digest an

first, but they saw the effects 1t had
on me, and when they were feeling
bad they began to use Postum, n al

Present Superintendent Of
City Schools Will Serve
Another Year.
BOARD TOOK ACTION AT MEET
ING LAST NIGHT.
Schools Being Conducted iu Elk
cellent Manner Under Direc
ton of Mr.. Richie.

At a meeting of the school
board of Independent School Dis
trict of Bemidji last night, A. P,
Ritchie, the present superinten-
dent, was decided upon as the
superintendent for next year.
The resolution by which Mr..
Ritchie was retained for another
year was adopted unanimously
by the board and no other name
was mentioned for the position.
That the retention of Mr..
Ritchie as superintendent of the
public schools will undou btedly
meet with the hearty approval OF
nearly every resident of the city
is the belief of the members of
the board. Since taking charge
of the schools two years ago Mr..
Ritchie has made an excellent
record as superintendent and
has shown much ability as an
educator.
The board at it's meeting last
night also accepted a report from
the committee on purchasing
wood appointed at the last meet
ing. The committee reported
having purchased $50 cords Of
green cut jack pine wood at $1.9s
per cord, delivered. It is thought
that this amount, together with
what wood the board has already
on hand will last until the closing
OF schools.

TITLE OF THE
ISLE OF PINES
Should Rest With United
States, Says Committees
Minority Report.

Washington, Feb. ID. The
senate, in executive session yes
terday, made public the majority
and minority reports from the
committee on foreign relations
on the treaty ceding Cuba the
title of the Isle of Pines. The
majority report has already been
pu blished. The minority re-
port, which is signed by Sena-
t)rs Morgan and w. A. Clark,
upholds the contentious of
Americans who have invested on
the island, that they we're war
ranted in doing SO by the Ian
guage Of the Platt amendment
and the Cuban constitution, as
we'll as early announcements
made by Assistant Secretary
of War Meklejohn, that the title
i
was invested in the United States
by the treaty Of Paris. The
minority reports that if the
island is turned over to Cub 1t
will be unsafe to leave Ameri-
cans there, for it they were
maltreated, this government
would be compelled to protect
them. It is stated that from the
hour this government again sent
soldiers to Cuba, the destiny of
that repub bic would be that OF
Ireland or Egypt, and the repu b
lie would disappear.

Indians at Cass Lake Are Madden
Than Hornets Oyer the
Forgery.

l .
D. Morrison, who was in Bemidji
last Sunday, was called to the.
denial of DR.. Craft. of ST. Paul,
in a dispatch that the signatures
of the Chippewa Indians to the
petition in favor of the forestry
reserve were forgeries. He
stated that there was no possible
ground for doubt that the sigma
lures we're forgeries, and that
he IS prepared to shed much
further light on the subject. If
the petition was not forged the
person that secured the sixty
signatures must have travelled
l 900 miles in one day to accom-
plish the work, in addition to the
time of interviewing that many
signers. The bishop is pre-
pared to substantiate his state
ments in regard to the irregular
proceedings.
On the same subjective follow
ing dispatch was received from
Cass Lake:
"The statement in this morn
ing's paper, issued by DR.. Leo
M. Crafts, of Minneapolis, and
officers of the committees of the
commercial clubs of the twin
cities, that tho notorious Indian
petition was not forged, has
created much comment here,
where hundreds of people have
positive knowledge that it was a
piece of rank forgery. ST
"The Cass Lake commercial
club has in it's possession original
ahidavits Of prominent Chippewa
Indians. including five chiefs,
whose names were signed to the
forged petition. Each of the 80
says: Among the pretended
signers to the said petition my
name appears. Deponent states
under oath that he has never
heard of or seen such petition
until shown the printed copy
thereof attached to said memoir
ial and appeal; that he never
signed said petition or authorized
anybody to sign his name
thereto; that the inclusion of
his name among the pretended
signers was nothing short of
forgery.
s'The commercial club there
would like to know how Crafts
and the twin city clubs can recon
cile the above statement Of Sc
Indians, whose names are on the
petition, with their statement
that Crafts had full authority to
use the petition.
| s'The Indians say they will
give Crafts warm reception if
| he comes to the reservation and
| repeats his published statement.
