The Dream Maiden.

When, l was young / loved maid
who left all others in the shade. Her
eyes were of an azure tint, her
charms too numerous to print. ]
hoped to make that girl my bride,
but fate to me that boon denied. ]
left my native town to stray in towns
and cities far away. The years passed
on, and youth was fled, and silver
hairs grew on my head, and hope be-
came an aching void, and I wore teeth
of celluloid. And all the time and
everywhere I dreamed about that
maiden fair. No other damse1s had
her grace, her sunny locks, her gen.
tie face. All mel! l loved her from
afar, as one may love shining star.
Last month I journeyed home once
more, to see the friends l loved az
yore, to see the shack where / was
born, and blow my fathers dinner
horn. There was suffragette par
ade, and at the head of it the maid
of whom I'd dreamed so many years,
/ saw her through a mist of tears.
An, she had whiskers on her chin.
and bore the sign eve Women
Win!" Her nose was red, her person
fiat, she wore the most outrageous
hat! I shed about a million weeps.
and uttered some despairing cheeps,
and sought a drug store, there to
drink gallon of refreshing ink.

WILL Y0U TELL Us I

The old notion that only saw logr
and gambling devices grow in North
ern Minnesota, as illustrated In q
timely article from Duluth in another
column of this issue, is fast disap-
pearing and this paper wants to, do
all it can to completely wipe out such
erroneous ideas, and it asks the farm
ers of this district to aid in the work
work.
Beltrami is proud of her timber
and she has millions of trees yet to
be- run through saws but long ago 1t
was determined that the greatest
value of this favored section is the
rich soil which grows anything that
can be raised on any farm in the
state.
1t is hard for all of our southern
neighbors to understand this and per-
sons who come here for the first time
usually have to catch their breath
two or three times when they are
whizzed in automobiles over good
roads past thriving farms ornament
ed with modern buildings.
Now, here is the point. If you are
a farmer and will tell us just what
you have raised and how much you
have cleared and what you have
planned in-a an agricultural way for
the future we shall be pleased to
spread the glad tidings and it will go
out from Bemidji as an ever growing
advertisement, arousing homeseek-
ers to realization of the wonderful
possibilities of this section of the
state.
If you are building a silo, buying
additional cattle, building farm struc-
lures of any sort, putting in ma
chinery, clearing new tracts, harvest
ing, threshing or have anything else
to say tending to prove the assertion
that this is indeed a garden spot, you
will be helping yourself and the com.
munity by letting us know. A few
make it point to tell us. Will you
not joint the boosting brigade?

SENATOR NELSON.

For 18 years Knute Nelson of AL
Grandma has represented Minnesota
in the upper branch of the United
States congress.
Nelson's career is an inspiration,
not only to the American youth but
to those who come from foreign coun-
tries.
Born of humble parents in Nor
way, Senator Nelson came to the
United States and here he has forced
his way upward until today there
are few more commanding figures.
Honest, sturdy and strenuous and
ever jealous of the responsibilities
resting upon his shoulders, he has
won respect and admiration.
Now that times hand begins to lay
heavily upon his shoulder he serious
ly considers the idea of leaving pub
JIG life to seek peace and quiet in his
old home in Minnesota. " .
His best friends will hope that he
comes to this decision, not only be-
cause he has earned a rest but be-
cause retirement at this time would
mean political record unmarried by
defeat.
Should he decide, despite his 6S
years, to again seek reelection, it
would mean a bitter struggle and
because the senior senator has been
getting farther and farther away
from the people in the last few years,
1t would be a struggle which must
cause him to exert his utmost
strength.
The Ballinger-Pinchot controversy
in which Senator Nelson displayed
such apparent sympathy for Mr.. Bal
linger while the public at large ap-
plauded and still does applaud, Pin
-ehot. would prove stone about Sen
ator Nelson's neck, and he has done
other things hardly less popular.
Better a thousand time that Sena-
tor Nelson retire now when CRATE
full state is willing to overlook what
1t may term poor judgment at times,
than a bitter campaign, defeat and
retirement in disgrace, as is SO like
ly to be the case II Senator Nelson
insists on trying his strength under
the dangerous possibilities Of popu-
lar vote test.
