NOT so BAD.

"1t's bad, bad thing for the town.
and all Northern Minnesota-this
Dumas affair."" is the woeful com.
ment heard now and then since that
memorable duckshot battle bright
and early on the moring of June H.
We don't believe there is any real
ground for this sort of pessimism. In
fact we take the opposite view.
The events of the past two weeks
have caused Bemidji to be known
where it never was known before. To
the Atlantic Tapped coast of Maine:
to flower strewn sands of Florida
toward the setting sun to San Fran
cisco and down into the towns OF
Texas the telegraph licked the tale
OF DR.. Dumas, and it went out un.
der: a Bemidji date line.
They'll think we are the rende-
vous OF criminals-a rough back
woods country" say the weakened
but they overlooked the repeated ref.
erence to Cass Lake as a thriving citv
of $500, that automobiles carried de-
tectives over farm roads between the
city of Bemidji and surrounding
towns and that the escaped robber
was hiding in the woods fearing to
come out into the fields.
This is the sort of stuff that the
Associated Press has flashed to every
city in the country and this is the
kind of stuff that the staff cores
pendents of the Twin City papers
nave been sending out and it is the
sort of stuff that Bemidji newspa-
per men have sent out, and almost
without exception there has been
some hint, some suggestion, some
thing in every story that might cause
the intending settler and homeseeker
to make further Investigation of
this part of the state.
1t is easy to imagine that an in
tending immigrant now in Illinois
read of the Dumas case and then said
to himself: "How large a town is
Bemidji- wonder what they have
there-what sort of soil they have.
Guess I'll look it up"
1t is doubtful if there is much real
logic in the argument that people
would be afraid to come here and live
because "the band of criminals, 1"
Anyone who would be faint hearted
enough to wilt on that score prob
ably would be pretty poor addition.
1t looks as if Bemidji had received
more free advertising during the
month of June than any other town
in the United States.

Bemidji Man Roasts the West.
Portland, Ore, June 21.
To the Bemidji Pioneer:
When I left Bemidji I think ]
promised. to write you and give YOU
my opinion of this country. Now,
this country is so mighty big it takes
some time to form an opinion, but
1 have travelled over quite a large
scope by steam, electricity and au-
tomobile, and the more I travel the
better Minnesota looks to me. and
especially Valley Farm and Bemidii.
The only thing they have in album
dance is roses, but they make mighty
poor eating. Oh, yes! there is an
another crop in abundance and that
is the "Big Mitt" artist. They stand
on every street corner and seem to
have faculty of "spotting'' an east
ern guy" and they hight on him like
hungry buzzard, and if he is easy
they soon transform him into a
tramp. They haven't landed me vet
but don't know how soon they will.
Now, there is some things here
that the farmer of Minnesota could
learn, and that is the destroying of
pests such as bugs and worms. AS
soon as an insect shows itself the
people, backed by the state, start to
destroy it at once, and the conse-
quences are they keep the pests UNI
der control. Potatoe bugs have shown
up In this country in places but they
are exterminated at once.
Now, would advise any one in
Beltrami county who has a piece Of
land to stay there, and try and do
better farming. wouldn't give one
acre of my farm near Bemidji that
I am holding at $35 per acre for
5 acres of their $500 per acre land
out here.
So far I have no kick on the eli:
mate. only very cold nights. Corn
IS an unknown quality. Hay is GER
tainly fine. Garden truck and small
grain is no farther advanced than
there. The fruit question I think is
being overdone although the crop is

Fourth at Indianapolis. Leaving
