ment has begun an investigation of
the fire which pr actically destroyed

KIND WORDS FOR KAISER.

The state presa, with but one or
two exceptions of minor Importance,
is lining up for Albert Kaiser, the
Bagley banker, for the republican
nomination for state treasurer; and
Ninth district papers take very
kindly to Mr.. Kaiser's candidacy.
The Moorhead Independent
recently published the following
kindly mention of Mr.. Kaiser:
"The state press is mentioning
the name of A. Kaiser of Bagley in
connection with the Office of state
treasurer in a very kindly manner.
Mr.. Kaiser has many warm friends
in Moorhead and vicinity who
would be glad to see him land the
the office.
The office of state treasurer has
so far been conceded to the German
population of the state, and as Mr..
Kaiser is German and otherwise
fitted by large experience in financial
matters, he would be perfectly elig-
IDLE.
Mr.. Kaiser is cashier of the
First National bank at Bagley and
also interested in the First National
bank at Fosston. 1t is up to the
people of northern Minnesota to
pull for northern Minnesota man
when that part of the state. has a
man who will fill the BILL"

The DOCTORS QUESTION
Some Advice Against the Use of
=
e Harsh Purgatives and
Physics.

A doctors first question when
consulted by a patient is, "Are
your bowels REGULAR" He knows
that SO per cent of illness is
attended with inactive bowels and
torpid liver. This condition
Poisons the system with waste
matter and causes accumulation of
gases which must be removed
through the bowels before health
can be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathar-
tics may be truly likened to dyna-
mite. Through their harsh, irri-
tatlng action they force a passage
through the bowels, causing pain
and damage to the delicate intest-
inal structure which weskens the
whole system, and at best only
produces temporary relief: The
repeated use of such treatments
causes chronic irritation of the
stomach and bowels, dries and
hardens their tissues, deadens
their nerves. stiffens their muscles
and generally brings about an
injurious habit which sometimes
has almost, if not fatal results.
We have a pleasant and safe
remedy for constipation and bowel
disorders in general. We are so
certain of its great curative value
that we promise to return the pur-
chaser's money in every case
where it fails to produce entire
satisfaction. This remedy is
called Rexall Orderl1es. We
urge you to try them at our entire
risk.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like
candy, they act quietly and have
soothing strengthening, healing,
regulative influence on the entire
intestinal tract. They do not
purge, grippe, cause nausea, hatu-
lence, excessive looseness, diar-
rhoea or other annoying effects,
and they may be taken at any
time without inconvenience.
Rexall Orderlies overcome the
drugging habit and safely remedy
constipation and associate
ailments, whether acute or
chronic, except in surgical cases.
They are especially good for
children, weak persons or old
folks. Price, So tablets IS cents,
and II tablets 10 cents.
Remember you can obtain Rexall
Remedies in Bemidji only at our
store,-The Rexall Store. Barker's

STORM RACES IN

Worst Blizzard Of Season
in Several States.
RAILROAD TRAINS BLOCKED

While No Fatalities Have Been Re-

Done and Communication Is Badly
crippIed-coId Spell in New York
City Causes Great Suffering Among
the Poor.
Chicago, Jan. 6.-The storm which
gripped Colorado Tuesday moved east
ward and the Middle West is expe-
riencing one of the worst storms in
years, according to advices received
from many cities. While no reports
of fatalities have been received from
the immediate vicinity of Chicago i'm.

ing, however, and this drifted the
sleet badly in the Streets, making the
highways impossible in many places
Ice on the tracks completely tied up
surface and elevated traffic for several
hours and caused a number of minor
wrecks on the suburban railroad
lines. AS a result the suburban and
elevated trains were running from one
to three hours late. Scores of per.
sons received minor injuries by slip
ping on the icy, sleet covered side
walks.
Coal Shortage in Iowa.
The blizzard reached it's height in
Iowa and Nebraska. Reports from
Des Moines indicate it is the worst
storm Iowa has experienced in many
years and the damage will be enor-
nous. Besides Iowa City, where the
state university has been compelled to
close it's doors because of a shortage
of fuel to heat the place, many other
Iowa towns have reported similar
shortage.
The frequency of the recent storms
has delayed traffic for days and it has
been impossible to ship enough coal to
supply all the Iowa towns. Numerous
railroad wrecks are also reported.
In Nebraska similar condition pre-
walls. The storm has caused inter-
ruption of street railway traffic in
Omaha and Lincoln, forcing the clos
ing of many of the Omaha public
schools. Nebraska railroads, especial
ly in the northern part of the state,
report many trains stalled. The rail-
road trouble is so general that it will
be days before traffic can be moved
normally.
The blizzard was also general in
Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma.

"MACk." is LIKED Wherever KNOWN.

The International Falls Press
says of "Our Mack"
Wv. R. Mackenzie, general mana
ger af the Northern Minnesota Farm
Land Co., recently made an ex-
tended tri p through Illinois and the
central states in the interest of his
company. This is an organization
to secure settlers in Beltrami and
Clearwater counties.
He expects to secure great
many settlers from the central states
in the near future. Such an organ
lied movement to secure settlers as
Mr.. Mackenzie is bringing about, is
certain to meet with gratifying sue
cess.
Beltrami in the vicinity of Be-
midi can offer some splendid induce
ments to settlers, one of which is
good roads at all seasons.
International Falls is handi-
capped in this respect, and we
venture to say that the man who
will solve the road and state land
problem for northern Minnesota,
will need no others recommends
ton to make him a leader in our
state.'
Our Mack" is known all over
this section as one of the greatest
advocates of successful farming and
dairying in northern Minnesota; and
should he be fortunate enough to

of managers of the Minnesota State
Fair, northern Minnesota people
would be certain of having a
