Former Bemidji Mayor Suggests That
Minneapolis Street Cleaning
Plan Be Used Here
ALSO USED IN OTHER TOWNS

]. P. Pogue, former mayor of Be-
midi, who is now in Minneapolis,
writes the following letter in regard
to the street cleaning plan Of Min
neapolis, and suggests that it would
be a cheap way for the paved streets
of Bemidji to be cleaned:
Minneapolis, Mimi, Feb. .16, 1912,
To The General Public and Tax Pay
ers, Bemidji Mimi
Gentleman
was in Minneapolis and saw a
demonstration Of a street ausher
operated by a gasoline engine con-
nected to rotary pump, which
forces the water; through inch
adjustable nozzles in a way that it
drives all the dirt and dust to the
curb, and it appeared to me that
this surely would be the best way
for taking care Of our paved streets,
and it appeals to me the cheapest in
the future, while one team takes the
place of two, in our present inten-
3tion of the City Council by using
both the street sweeper and street
sprinkler. 5s B.

HIS HOME
Colonel, in. Seattle, Hopeful
Of Throwing Ex-SeCretary
Into Discard"

SEATTLE. WASH, Sept. 10.-Into
this reactionary stronghold came Colo
mel Roosevelt today. AS the train neared
the city, the ex- president remarked that
he was hopeful" of putting down the
machine of western Washington and
throwing ex-Secretary Ballinger, leader
of the Taft forces, into the discard
Roosevelt expressed himself as ex-
tremely satisfied with the situation in
eastern Washington. His stay yester
day in Spokane convinced him that the
Progressive party in that part of the
state is going TO make a clean sweep.
I'm no prophet, but I'm told that
the Progressives will carry Washington
in November" observed the colonel
mo doubt exists as to the eastern part
of the state. think we can pull the
western part with us"
The colonel reached here at 9 o'clock
this morning after an all-night ride
from Spokane. He was greeted by a
great crowd waiting to see him.
Vote, He Urges Women.
He went direct to the county conven>
ton of Progressives, whore he talked
on the issues of the fight. Abiding to
the suffrage of women. the ex-presi-
dent said he wanted to impress the
women voters Of Washington with the
necessity of using the ballot.
You women here in Washington
have the right to vote he said. turn
ing to the women delegates at the con-
vention. IF the women fail to exer-
else the ballot privilege, they show that
they do not regard the suffrage as of
practical value. 1t is not enough to
! fight for the right to vote. You must
so to the polls and fight for the princi-
pies of government"
The colonel felt impelled to give this
advice because of the apathy shown in
many parts of Washington by women
who failed to register. He urged that
a complete registration be got out, so
| We may smash the bosses.
