Hard Times?

New York, Nov. Is. Bradstreet's
trade review this week says:
Activity is undated. Practically
all avenues of trade are busy, and
the post-election period has appa-
rently witnessed an increased rather

rapid succession during the last
days Of the week. Woe be unto the
easy goers."
There will be an interesting basket
ball game in the High School gym
nasium Friday night. Better come.
The entire Junior Glass was dis.
missed Tuesday afternoon in respect
to the deceased father of their class
mate, Latimer Watkins. The class
attended the funeral in a body and
the entire school sympathizes with
the bereaved.
The coming of the army boys to
spend possibly the entire winter in
Deming gives opportunity for many
hard-fought battles on the gridiron
between now and the close of the
season. The High School team will
meet the soldiers this afternoon
wednesday, in a get acquainted"
game and later will play more
elaborate contest. The date of this
game will he announced later and
the public is invited to contribute
literally with presence and presents.
But the game of the season will be
on Thanksgiving Day, when we meet
Clifton. Ariz., on the local grounds.
Altho' Clifton has a heavy team, we
have already scored one victory
against them. We understand. how
ever, that the big boys of Arizona
have been praoticing in good earnest,
so come out in the afternoon and

Mr.. Graham Of the Graham Hard

time ago.
Friends as the winter approaches
and farm duties become lessened, it
is an opportune time to resume
active work on the county roads.
BY all means let us have good roads.
1t is certainly true that poor roads
are an evidence of barbarism and
not of civilization.

The Needs of the Hour.

According to Judge Alden who is
to lecture here Nov. 20, the one
great need of the present hour is
the returning of the present day
people and citizens of the United
States to the worship of the God of
their fathers. This one step he be.
lieves would bring about all the
changes which are needed now and
will be necessary in a few years.
The elimination of the CRATER, the
purifying of politics and lastly, al.
though not the least by any means,
the divorce question. In talking
about the divorce question Judge
Alden stated that at the present
time there was hardly an American
family that had not had at least one
case of divorce or appendicitis"
Mr.. Alden stated in a recent lee
ture that the spirit of the age gov
erned the people and as the spirit
was. so were they. He divided the
spirit of the different ages in the
history of America as follows: The
first he called the Pilgrim spirit, in
which consciousness and conviction
were the dominant factors. The
next was the spirit of the revolu-
ton in which liberty and loyalty
stand out as the strongest character.
istics of the people. Then came the
heroic age, during the civil war,
when humanity and honor stood
foremost. And now ut the present
time is the spirit of graft and greed
which holds the entire country in its
clutches. adv.

Should Guard the Children.

Many times during the auto races
at the county fair yesterday the
hearts of the spectators literally stood
still for fear that some child would
be hit and severely injured or pos
sibly killed. They seemed to take
delight in darling across the track
just ahead of some machine that was
being thrown through the air at the
rate of forty miles an hour.
Not enough guards were provided
to keep the crowd on the inside of the
fences, but the parents of those chill
dren were also negligent in not know
ing where their children were and
watching to see that they kept with
in the bounds of safety. Such con-
ditions must be watched closer next
year for there is the possibility of a
trajedy the awfulness of which will
never grow dim in the memory OF Be-
midi people. -..

In the Midst of Life"

Three times within a few more
days than it takes to make month
has the hand of Death reached into
this commounity and violently taken
a life from it. In each instance it
was man and in each instance the
man was just realizing the full
strength of his powers.
The first to go was Norman Helm
er who on August 8 was shot and
killed by an unknown hobo whom he
was accompanying to Bemidji where
the latter was wanted as witness
against an Italian who had been dis
turbing the peace of the community.
In a revolver duel, both men lost
their lives, but the one snuffed out
by the bullet from the gun of the
tramp was one that had already
proved it had found place in the
community that it could fill and was
then filing. ~'-'-
Vint Ellis was the second to go.
While his death did not have the
spectacular setting of Helmer's, it
was none the less shock to the COM
munity. While on pleasure trip he
went into the lake to retrieve by
swimming, a shot duck, but was I'M
able to fight his way back to shore.
His young wife sat in their auto so
near that she easily heard him shoot
but heard no outcries if there were
any. Ellis was young man, but one
who had already won place in the
business and home life of Bemidji.
The third to go was Ernest Ander-
son, a pressman in the Pioneer shop.
The first two deaths struck close
home, but the third was as if a men,
Der of our own family was taken
without a moments warning. The
Thursday edition was but half off the
press when the accident happened
and it will be many days before the
force of Pioneer will be able to print
an edition without the memory OF
Ernest Anderson coming to the front
in their minds.
Truly, "In the midst of life we are
in DEATH --.---

reader Of the daily press must be impressed with the
that very large proportion Of these murders commit
