be essentially Morgan company, with
all that that implies.
A list of the banks, trust companies,
insurance concerns and railroad and
industrial corporations owned or con-
trolled by Morgan shows a total of
more than $10,000,000,0O0 in resources.
With these back of him Morgan, it is
felt certain in financial circles, can
do about as he pleases with the
finances of the country, no matter
what monetary legislation is enacted
by congress, and there is a general
feeling of wonderment in Wall street
as to where the aged financier is 60
ing to get off. It is known that his
recent activity in assuming control of
the big banks, trust companies and
insurance companies is all part of one
general plan that was decided on by
Morgan and his advisers following the
panic of 1907.

ACTUAL STARVATION
The Barker Drug Store Gives Facts
Regarding Dyspepsia.

Although indigestion and dys-
pepsia are so prevalent, most people
do not thoroughly understand their
cause and how to obtain relief.
There is no reason why people
should not eat anything they desire
If they will only chew it carefully
and thoroughly. Many actually
starve themselves into sickness
through fear of eating every good
looking, good smelling and good
tasting food, because it does not
agree with them.
Dieting cannot cure dyspepsia.
If we refuse every article of food
that disagrees with US, before long
we have nothing left, and find our
selves chronic dyspeptics.,
We are so confident that we can
furnish relief for indigestion and dys-
pepsia that we promise to supply
the medicine free of all cost to
every one who uses it according to
directions who is not perfectly salts
fed with the results. We exact no
promises and put no one under
any obligation whatever. Surely
nothing could be fairer. We are
located right here where you live,
and our reputation should be sufi-
Gent guarantee of the genuineness
of our offer.
We want everyone who is troubled
with indigestion or dyspepsia in any
form to come to our store and get a
box of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets.
Take them home and give them
reasonable trial, according to direc-
tons. They are very pleasant to
take; they soothe the irritable stom-
acb, strengthen and invigorate the
digestive organs, promote a healthy
and natural bowel action, almost
Immediately relieve nausea and
stomach irritation, produce healthy
digestion and assimilation and pro-
mote nutrition. f. IT..
A ascent package of Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets furnishes Is days
treatment. In ordinary treatment
this is sufficient to produce complete
relief. In more chronic cases, a
longer treatment, of course, is nee
cessary, and depends upon the
severity of the trouble. For such
cases we have two larger sizes, SO
cents and $1.0O. Remember you
can obtain Rexall Remedies in Be-
midi only at our store-the Rexall
Store. Barker's Drug Store.

"THEY MISTAKE THE MAN."

Duluth News-Tribune: Those of
the brethren of the press who have
joyously hoped onto the frame of
the editor of the Bemidji Pioneer
because he criticised the State
Editorial association, have mistaken
their man when they say he has a
"grouch." DOC" never had that
ailment in his life.
He has given a thousand times
more favors than he ever asked,
and is as forgiving to his enemies
as he is loyal to his friends. Nor
is he the first to criticise the as
ISOLATION. There, as everywhere, the
majority rules but there, as in most
organizations, there is a very con-
siderable and a decidedly militant
minority who are not all bothered
with a crouch, nor are they all
cranks.
Moreover, it is noticeable that
when newspaper men find nothing
else pressing their time and space,
they are very apt to take "a bat" at
each other. This does not imply per-
sonal hostility, or, at least, we would
very much dislike to think it did,
as we have reaped an abundant
harvest of the kind.
It rather implies that close in
timacy, loving regard and broad
mindedness that carries with
criticism, the same fraternal, not to
say paternal, spirit which accom-
panies brotherly and fatherly correc-
ton. Our mothers and fathers were
no less loving because of the spank
ing of our youth.
So it is that when we of the press
meet at our annual gatherings, the
brother who first grasps your hand,
slaps you on the back and gives you
bear-like hug, with an invitation to
have suthin'," is probably the same
who the other day gave vicious
paragraph lunge at your sorest spot.
He didn't mean it that way, but
he could not bear to spoil a good
squib just because you were in the
way or were the inspiration. Some
times we have known these to come
in broadsides, and then they pass as
free advertising, to be credited at so
much a line and paid for in for.
giving, if not understanding, spirit.
So in February doc" will be with
the bunch" ready to give and take
anything except apologies, and the
association, whether officially close
corporation or not, whether run by
the gang" for political purposes or
for the good of the order, whether
composed of a group of Joe Cannons
and herd of helpless, because out"
insurgents who want to get in"
once more will prove itself the great
binder of the greatest power for good
which the state has, and the most
remarkable collection of bohemian
free-lances and fraternal Kilkennies
