yored by y majority. The brewery
interests and the men who rent
buildings to some of the dives Of the
city are opposed to it and will make
their strength felt.
Nj All over the state, there has been
movement to raise the license fee
required of saloonkeepers and it has
resulted in better regulated saloons
and fewer of them. A man with
$1,000 at stake will not violate state
and. city laws the way many of them
dc, at. present with the lower license.
Tonight, the city council of. Mime
apolis will debate resolution to
limit the number of saloons to 200,
and raise the license to $2,5OO, the
indications being that both proyis-
ions will pass.
Brewery owned saloons are the
worst feature of the liquor traffic in
this city. Under present conditions,
small stocks are constantly being
placed in inferior buildings and
former bartenders of no financial re-
sponsibility are put in charge. They
have no selling principles and are
not here to stay. Law violations are
fragrant and Opener were until the
present police administration. With
profit of from IS to Sc on every bar
rel of beer sold in Bemidji the brew
cries naturally feel that they can
take chances and pay the fines when
caught. With a $1,000 license fee
at stake, they will not feel so free
to follow their own will.
One or two members of the council
have already expressed themselves as
in favor of the increased license. BY
their attitude on this ordinance, the
people of this city will know those
members who can be depended upon
to stand by their constituents and
those who will every time stand pat
for the breweries.

A Higher Saloon License.

At it's meeting tonight, the city
council will have under consideration
an ordinance which if passed, will
gradually raise the saloon license in
Bemidji from $500 to $1,000 per.

that the raise will be at the rate of
$50 per month, distributing the eff

For generations Sage and Sulphur
have been used for hair and scalp
troubles. Almost everyone knows
the value Of such a combination for
keeping the hair good even color.
for curing dandrutt, itching scalp
and Telling hair, and for promoting
the growth Of the hair. Years ago
the only way to- get q Hair Tonic Of
this kind was to make it in the home,
which was troublesome and not al
ways satisfactory. Nowadays, almost.
any up-to-date druggist can supply
his patrons. with q ready-to-use pro-
duct, skiNfullyl prepared in perfectly
equipped laboratories.
An ideal preparation of this sort
is Wyeth Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur
are combined with other valuable
remedies for scalp troubles and thin,
weak3hair that is losing it's color or
coming out. After using this remedy
for q few days, you will notice the
color gradually coming back, your
scalp will feel better, the dandruff
will soon be gone, and in less than
a months time there will be won
derful difference in your hair.
Don't neglect your hair If it is
full of dandrutf, losing it's color or
coming OUT Get a fifty cent bottle
of Wyeth's Sage: and Sulphur from
your druggist, and see what a few
days treatment will do, for you. All
druggists sell it, under guarantee
that the money will be refunded ii
the remedy is not exactly as repre-
scented.
