The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1911-10-20

Princeton editor is mistaken when he
says the men Of Minnesota who have
been honored with election to the
legislature will say that the present
injustice to Northern Minnesota must
continue.
This paper believes he is mistaken
when he says that Governor Eberhart
will not convene the legislature.
: Right here we want to say that
Governor Eberhart, n the face of a
resolution from the st. Cloud conven-
ton demanding action, would not
dare remain inactive. =.
> We print Bob Dunn's letter not
only to get his views on the building
of roads, but because, despite the
pessimism of the author, we believe
it is a splendid boost for reappor-
tionment, for it shows that the big
gest men in the state ar behind this
one big, overshadowing issue.
When you read what Mr.. Dunn
has to say remember that he is pledg-
ed irrevocably to reapportionment
and that that in itself is encourage
ing.
Remember that his opinion as to
what the legislature would do is on
ly the act of a phophet and that Rob-
ert hasn't always been successful as
prophet.

THE SPIRIT. OF THE NORTH.

1t takes more than forest fire to
discourage the people of the North.

ashes. Today thriving villages with
modern buildings and up to-date pub
lie structures have replaced the glow

'audette Region:
The splendid fighting spirit of
the people of this north country
was the salvation of the situa-
ton. Order soon came out of
confusion. Aid was freely ten
dered from the outside and new
start was made. The dead en-
bers of destroyed homes were
raked aside, and new homes
were started to take the places of
!. the old ones. Tears for the dead,
brief regrets for the fruits of
earlier endeavor destroyed, then
hope and courage and with faces
to the front.
Grit and courage and loyalty
won the day. The towns have
risen in new born splendor and
in the country fertile fields have
taken the place of barren
wastes. s.s.'' - -. .
1t has been year of ter
rible strain but of tremendous
achievements and now that it is
past and the silver lining of the
cloud is visible, the Region feels
like taking off it's hat to the
heroes - the home builders ---
who have given such splendid
example of American pluck. II r
Pluck is the right word and as tn
Pioneer has said before Beltrami

DUNN on GOOD ROADS.

What Robert G. Dunn has to say
in this issue of the Elwell good roads
law and good roads in general will be
read with keen interest in this part
of the state, inasmuch as Beltrami
expects to profit as much as any coun-
ty in the state as a result of the i'm
proved highways campaign. The
note of alarm sounded over the one
mill tax amendment will strike
home.

well to report the matter to the
nearest game warden and take the
consequences.
Next Sunday the pheasant, quail
and deer season opens on the islands
and a large percentage of the adult
male population will be afield. The
limit is FIVE pheasants, or ten quail
to each hunter in one day and only
two male deer may be taken in one
season. In a mixed bag of pheasants
and quail. only ten birds per day

land birds is 80.
Two boys arrived in a launch at
Doe Bay last week for hunt in the

them $12 each and costs.

The subject of disincorporation
is likely to agitate this COM
munity for the next few weeks.
The situation may be summed
up in very few lines.
There seems to be little use for a
corporate existence if we are un-
able to afford the improvements
that are necessary to an incorporat-
ed town. If the town is to remain
a mere collection of houses and a
trading post, we can find our way
home through the muddy streets
with lantern. We can get drink
at the we'll. There will be one gro
Gerry at least where we can get some
crackers and cheese. Ii the town is
going to grow, it will be necessary
to provide a water supply, light
ing plant, sewers, and street i'm
provements. With the finest har-
Dor on Puget Sound, a water front
well adapted to manufacturing pur-
poses, other water font beautifully
situated for summer homes, all that
is needed are these necessary pub
llc utilities, and an organization to
exploit the advantages offered.
Conditions have reached pass
where it becomes necessary to
make town, or hand the reins of
government over to the County Com
missioners, and be known hereafter
as one Of the road districts Of San
Juan County.

1t is not at all surprising that
reciprocity has been overwhelmingly
defeated in the Canadian election
last week. President Taft and
Speaker Clark furnished the ammu-
milton for the Conservatives by con-
ceding that reciprocity offered the
possibility of annexation. This ar
oused the patriotism and prejudice
ofour Canadian cousins, and they
will have none of it. Canada is in
many respects much better gov
erned country than the United
States. They enforce their laws,
curb their trusts and are growing
rapidly in wealth and population:
