MOVING ON.

A new union depot and bids for
paving eleven blocks opened on one
day. That is Bemidji's record for
yesterday. And in every direction
comes a chorus of hammers-not
from knockers, but from new build
ings going up, and in the list there
are such structures as handsome
new church, a brick business block
with modern apartments, for live
Commercial club, and other business
buildings of scarcely less Importance
while in the residential district new
homes are shooting up like corn in
a pepper. Will the long mouthed,
eye blinking, mirth deserted, per-
sistently sour pessimist who mopes
about forecasting decay and ruin,
please stand up and face west SO that
proper punishment may be applied,
not with the Red Wing whipping ma
chine but with an armored pair of
lumberjack boots?

AND FARMER LOST HIS BET
How Maryland Countryman Proved
He Was Not Ugliest Lad in State.

One of the favorite stories told by
the farmers who sell their produce
outside Center Market concerns two
farmer brothers from somewhere up
in Maryland, who are said to be so
ugly that whenever they want the
wagon backed all they have to do is
to stand in front of the team and
laugh.
One day the boys were bringing in
vegetables in a covered wagon. John
was walking and driving and Bill
was taking nap, hidden by the
cover. A "gentleman farmer" out
for a spin behind his blooded mare,
halted the wagon. Knowing that the
boys liked little fun and were not
averse to being told that they were
ugly, he engaged John in converse
ton, thinking that he was the only
one present. 49,. : s..:~. ~ u
"John," he said, "1'll bet you are
the ugliest boy in the state.'
"How much will you bet?" asked
John. $500. ~. Z
give dollars" -
+ s1'll jest take you on that" said
John. Then turning to the wagon
where Bill was concealed and asleep,
he yelled:
"Bill! Hey, Bill! Poke yo' head
outen them kivers." = 49,
Bill did as he was hidden and the
gentleman farmer" handed over the
five dollars and. drove away without
a word.-Washingt STAR. :

Treachery in, Politics

The American protective tariff sys-

and saturated in humbug that no
body or nothing can touch it with
out becoming infected with insincer-
ity. They who pretend to attack it
suffer with them who frankly defend
it. The treachery of the standpat-
ters who revised the tariff UP after
campaign pledges to revise it down is
matched by that of the insurgents
who vote against reciprocity with
Canada after clamoring for it till
they got into off1ce.-Minneapol

following order was made and enter

der from whom this petitioner claims

ter of the South West quarter OF
