FEARING FAITHFUL FlDO.

At about this time in the year
there is much alarm throughout the
country over hydrophobia, although
it seems a safe assertion to say that
more persons die of fright than from
the effects of rabies.
Eighteen years study of domestic
animals has convinced j. E. Ruders-
dorf, manager of the Spokane HUI
name Society, that the so-called mad
dog cases, reported every summer in
various parts of the United States
and Canada, are nothing more than
instances of poisoning, indigestion,
stomach troubles and mango.
He declares there has never been
an authenticated case of rabies west
of the Mississippi river, saying also
that scientific analysis of every re-
ported case in other parts of the
country has developed the fact that
the affliction generally is poisoning,
Indigestion or some other ailment,
but never rabies.
"There has never been a case of
rabies in the western country" he
asserted, "and I am prepared to
prove this statement"

As GOOD FOR BEMIoJI, mlNN., AS CHARLES
TON, S. c. -

Way down south at Charleston,
South Carolina, the retail merchants
have adopted list of reasons why
residents should buy goods at home,
and they are being reproduced in
many newspapers throughout the
country, because they apply with
equal force to all places.
Here they are:
Because my interests are here.
Because the community that is
good enough to live in is good enough
to buy in.
Because 1 believe in transacting
business with my friends.
Because want to see the goods.
Because l want to get what buy
when l pay for it.
Because my home dealer carries
me when I run short.
Because every dollar l spend at
home stays at home and works for
the welfare of Bemidji.
Because the man buy from stands
back of the goods. =,
Because I sell what I produce here
at home.
Because the man I buy from pays
his part of the local taxes.
Because the man I buy from gives
value received always
Because the man / buy from helps
support my school, my church, my
lodge, my home.
Because when i'll luck, misfortune
or bereavement comes the man I buy
from is here with the kindly greet
ing, his words of cheer and his pock-
etbook if need be.
Here live and here 1 buy.
This ought to set the person who
patronizes the catalogue houses to
thinking. 1t has in Charleston. Per-
haps it will in Bemidji. If it does
there will be more money spent here
where it belongs.

wonder if he thinks his salary will
be stopped, or reduced rs per cent
if this bill is not passed, if not, then
let him consider how he would like
to be a farmer and the price of his
grain reduced ten cents per bushel,
to give his neighbors across the line
a chance to compete with him in the
same market. 1t is certainly anus
ing to hear some of the reasons some
very intelligent men will give for
wanting this bill passed.
I might say in behalf of the stand
l take in the matter, 1 am in the
timber business, principally the ced-
ar posts and telephone poles and l
find that when the farmer does not
get good crop, or he does not get
a good price for his products, that
is when my business falls off, and
when the farmer is getting good
crops and good prices he is willing
to pay good prices for what I have
to offer him.

northwestern North Dakota, next to
the Canadian border, and know that
when l was ceiling wheat for $.l.OO

hauled the same grade of wheat in
the same elevator and sold his wheat
for 9Oc per bushel.
The farmer can get along very
nicely without these $4,000 salaried
men. But what would our salaried
men do without the farmer. Please
let him answer this, and see il he
don't think he can get along Just as
well if we do not have reciprocity

PRINTING The NEWS.

When the Daily Pioneer ran a Sc
ries of "Heart-to-Heart" talks with
its readers few weeks ago many
persons glanced over them as mere
space filters; few readers realized
that sooner or later some of the prin-
ciples and explanations set forth
must involve them personally. When
this paper said that it intended to
print all the legitimate news it
could get it's hands on, it meant what
it said. Within the past week GER
tain of our readers had occasion to
realize this. We have one case in
particular in mind. A divorce de-
cree was granted. A request was
made to say nothing about it. 1t
was court proceedings and a matter
Of public record. It would be Just as
reasonable to ask a paper not to
chronicle a wedding. 1t was an
event that was food for the gossips.
and every gossip who repeated, it,
enlarged upon the case until it be-
came a mountain out of a mole hill.
The Pioneer silenced these untrue
reports by presenting the fact in a
four-line item. Still the paper is
blamed and one of the principals has
cancelled his subscription. Thus the
merry task of getting out a news
paper goes on day after day.
