Such a man is bound to restore
his ill.gotten gains to its rightful
owner, but if this be impossible,
then works of charity to the needy
and the afflicted poor might
atone. But sure we are that no
man who fails to do either one of
thes Sc two things, when his wealth
is illegitimately obtained.
IF it be IT, possible to restore
these gains to the individual owners,
then they should be restored to
the people at large, by establishing
orphan asylums, hospitals, homes of
refuge for the homeless and the
afflicted ones, Perhaps after all J. D.
Rockefeller and his tribe are
attempting to make restitution. "A
strict justice obliges US to do this.
Justice first of all, then charity.

HANDICAPPED
This is the Case With Many Bemidj
People.

Too many Bemidji citizens are
handicapped with bad back. The
unceasing pain causes constant
misery, making work a burden and
STOPPING or lifting an impossibility.
The back aches at night, preventing
refreshing rest and in the morning
is stiff and lame. Plasters and
linaments maygive relief but cannot
reach the cause. To eliminate the
pains and aches you must cure the
kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kid
neys and cure them permanently.
Can you doubt Bemidji evidence?
Mrs. E. E. Hanks, 223 Park Ave,
Bemidji, MIMI, says: Il used
Doan's Kidney Pills and the relief I
received from their use was very
great. There was dull pain in the
small of my back which caused me
much suffering. I became very
dizzy at times and dark spots Aoated
before my eyes. Hearing about
Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured a
box at the Owl Drug Store and felt
better in every way after using

GUS Injury.

GUS injury.
Butte, Mont, Feb. 10.-Train No. 4,
known as the Chicago express, was
wrecked five miles east of Heron on
the Northern Pacific railroad. The
entire train, with the exception of the
engine and two rear sleepers, was
ditched. The wreck was caused by
spreading rails. After leaving the
track the train ran on the ties for 500
feet. The forward tourist car, follow.
ing the day coach, plowed into the side
of high bank after leaving it's truck
and was completely wrecked. The
second tourist sleeper turned over, as
did also the dining car.
The train was travelling at the rate
of forty miles an hour and it was mi.
raculous that no one was seriously in
jured. It took two wrecking crews
nearly twelve hours to clear up the
wreck.

Mississippian Proposes to Offer Statue
Of Jefferson Davis. ..
Jackson, Miss, Feb. Ex-senator
Anderson introduced concurrent res
olution in the senate calling attention
to the fact that some persons in the
North who do not know the war is
over have protested against placing
the statue of General Robert e. Lee
in the hall of fame and serving notice
that Mississippi is going to offer one
of Jefferson Davis, expecting similar
objections.
The resolution declares that Missis-
sippi has laid aside sectional feeling
and would let the dead past bury it's
dead, but pledges the state forever to
let the niche representing Mississippi
remain vacant unless the statue of
Jefferson Davis is accepted. The res
olution was referred to the committee
on federal relations.

ABOLISH PERSONAL TAXES
Recommendation Of Mayor Gaynor Of
New York.

Recommendation OF Mayor Gaynor Of
New York.
New York, Feb. 10.-Mayor Gaynor
would abolish personal taxes in New
York state. He has reached this de-
cision In view of the many complaints
from persons who have been errone-
ously assessed for personal taxation.
In a letter the mayor said he be-
lieved a majority of the people of the
state would like to see the personal
tax done away with. He suggests pub
lie hearings on the subject, with a
view to remedial legislation. The
value of personal estates in New York
city last year, after swearing off had
been completed, was $225,OOO,O00.

''The public conscience is now b.
ing awakened upon this aspect Of pub
lie morality. Last week l was in
vited to take Fart in a meeting or
ganixed by men who are not directly
connected with any Christian church.
but who are sincerely DESTROYS Of A.
sisting in the reformation of their
countrymen. Their purpose was to
start an antigambling league, and
with this In mind they called q public
meeting. which was attended by some
hundreds of Chinese scholars and
business men, and resolutions were
passed In approved public meeting
style, approving Of . campaign against
the gambling vice. Members OF the
Chinese Young Mems Christian asso-
citation were asked to assist In tho
meeting. and to demonstrate by the
means Of games the possibility OF
recreation without vice. Suitable ad-
dresses were given by prominent Chi
nese, and the chief organizer Of the
movement ia one of the government
education inspectors for the provinces
Of Kiangsu and Kianssi. A Chinese
Roman Catholic teacher gave violin
solo. Chinese secretary of the Young
Mems Christian association rendered
two Lornet solos, and q Protestant
missionary sang to the gathering. The
whole meeting was conducted in SO
orderly and orthodox a fashion that 1t
was scarcely possible to realize how
tremendous reformation in the
whole Chinese outlook upon public
life this meeting revealed. Twenty
years. even ten years, ago such
meeting would not have been within
the realm Of possibility. Today We
have class Of public moralists arising
who have undoubtedly learned from
Christianity In their midst the ideals
which they are DESTROYS Of impressing
upon their countrymen."

Geneva. Sept 6. a-good long time
ago-The performance of William Tell
of bow. arrow and apple fame, made
a decided hit last night, with an audi
ence that crowded the Grand opera
house to its capacity. Mr.. Tells was
silent act, and came between the
imperial Swiss bell ringers and the
Gordon brothers. acrobats. Mr.. Tel
was assisted by his ten-year-old son
Jimmy Tell, on whose head the apple
was placed at the order OF the Ri
Hon. Gov. Gessler. The young mar
displayed nerve worthy Of his cool
beaded sire. Not only did Mr.. Tell
shoot repeated apples from the boys
scalp across the 30-foot stage. but he
shot 'em with his eyes shut, lying or
his back and pulling his bow with his
feet, and from other novel positions
After this the boy threw apples into
the air and Mr.. Tell spiked them with |
unerring arrows. without missing one

shooting apples from his fathers
head and doing about everything that
