Bemidji People Are Learning the
Way

There is but little peace or COM
fort for the man or woman with a
bad back. The distress begins in
early morning-keeps up throughout
the day. It's hard to get out Of bed,
it's torture to stoop or straighten.
Plasters and liniments may relieve,
but cannot cure if the cause is in
side-the kidneys. When suffering
so, use Doan's Kidney Pills, the test
ed, and proven kidney remedy, used
in kidney troubles for over SO years.
Doan's Kidney Pills are recommended
by thousands for just such cases.
Proof Of their effectiveness in the tes-
timony of this Bemidji resident:
Mrs. Henry Reyoir, 342 Minnesota
Ave, Bemidji, says: II was so. bad

anything. had dull, steady pain
in the small of my back which was
always worse if did any bending.
A couple of boxes of sDoan's Kidney
Pills put an end@to the trouble, and
I have never had return attack.

backache and suffered severely.

X THE STORY OF ....
* SMITHPORT AND
BELTRAMI PRAIRI

x x x x X x x x 4 Z x x x x x i
Seven years ago the entire country
north of the Red Lake was a vast
wilderness, almost unknown to the
white man, where the Indians hunt
ed moose, deer, caribou and other
large game, unmolested by the white
settler. Great herds of caribou were
then to be seen feeding on what is
now known as "Beltrami Prairie,"
so named by State Forester William
T. Cox, whom the writer had the
honor to guide across that country a
few years later.
Previous to this the Indians used
to cross this so-called "Prairie' in
canoes, leaving Upper Red Lake at
point known as Little Deer River,
and following course north by east
into the head of a stream now known
as Miller Creek, down which they
drifted into the Rapid River and fol-
lowing it's course reached the Rainy
river at place known as Clementson.
Crossing the river they visited and
danced with their Canadian brothers.
The old "canoe trail" can yet be seen
in places, but it is several years since
a canoe passed over it.
Today it would be hard to make,
the stranger believe that a canoe had
ever f1oated over "Beltrami Prairie"
The water is gone and large por
tion of the country is cut up by large
dredge bitches and fine roads. The
entire country along the lake, and
for some distance north, is dotted
with houses. One can hardly realize
that such change has taken place in
so short time.
In 1908 the writer was the first
settler on the north shore of Red
| Lake, and for two years lived here
alone, my nearest store being at
Shotley, some twenty-three miles
away, by land, and about thir-
teen miles across the lake.
Finally induced a few settlers to
take up land in my immediate vic
unity, and in another year or SO we
petitioned for ditch IA. In the mean
time the township east of here was
being settled along the lake, where
a little high land was to be found.
After ditch IA was a certainty set
tiers came in large numbers, but not
fast enough to settle on all the land
before it was sold for ditch taxes.
Under the famous Cor rather .infa-
mous) Volstead act, the land not
homesteaded could be bought by the
1 speculatOr, who was to use his home
stead right, but was under no obli-
cations to live on or improve the
land, thus working a hardship on
the actual settler, who had to live
on his land and improve it, thereby
enhansing the value of the specula-
tors land by improving the land and
roads around it. And the home
steader has to pay the same price for
| the land at the time of final proof
as the speculator. Even the excess,
or bonus paid by the spectators in
the process of bidding is claimed by
the government instead of being ap-
piled on the cost of ditch construc-
| tiOn.
However, we have good land and
intend to stay right here even though
Uncle Sam is bankrupt and has his

Is Peace Near?


Political considerations of some
sort may induce peace at any time !;
but the military considerations point
to prolonged war.
Neither side is yet victorious, and
neither is exhausted. If the Kaiser
would like peace, the Allies would
not. What Italy can do has not yet
been tried, and will not be shown
for some months, perhaps many, to
come. To assume that the Anglo
French expedition against the Oar
danelles is failure is premature,
since the siege of the Gallipoli Pen
insula is barely commenced. It took
Grant from July to April to take
Petersburg. Should the Allies take
Constantinople by next Christmas,
they will not have been too long
about the job.
Constantinople impregnable? May
be, until some time in November.
Belgium unrecovered? rhaps,
through this summer and fall. Re-
member how during our Civil War
Europe expected peace every year,
and after every pitched battle that
stayed the North.
This war, called the greatest, has
not yet endured a year. Already it
has cost both sides so much, that
neither cares to have all the loss GO
for naught by agreeing to prema-
ture peace, which, however long it
might last, would be but a prelude
to second conflict to decide the same
issues. The one inducement to peace
now might be that some belligerent
would like peace in order to prepare
itself more thoroughly for renewed
war.
The fact is that the greatest hui
manitarian, the most socially pro-
day the most militant. Asquith OF
others may get "cold feet" but Lloyd
George is for war to the end. And
he has behind him Sir Edward Grey
and Lord Kitchener, as we'll as the
chiefs of the Unionist Party.
The woman's peace conference at
The Hague revealed that French wo-
men, German women, English women
and Belgian women are as militant
as their men. The women of Europe
want war in order to achieve a per-
manent peace; they will have none
of a patched up article that will not
endure. + -
Europe is like the man who has
been forty years sick and prefers "A
venturesome surgical operation ra-
ther than more years of suffering. A
whole generation has grown up in
Europe under the constant shadows
of war. Now they are accepting war
in order to be rid of both wars
shadow and wars substance for many
years to come, says the Minneapolis
Journal.

RoUTs AND LAND VALUES.

The building of great deal of
we'll paved roads in Manatee
county, Fla, has shown how
! good ROADS affect land values.
5 From 1871 to 1912 land along
these roads increased ON the
; average $40 an acre, while lands
mile frem the road increased 7.
; only $40 an acre. r
DinwiGGia county, Va, is an
> other instructive case. The build
ling Of 125 miles Of fine roads
:. caused land adjacent to the
). roads to. increase in value from s
I $24.25 to $50 an acre, while
. lands ten miles away increased
an average Of 1852 an acre. :.
The state builds the road, and
the landowner sells it if he sells
the land. That would look queer
ito a man from another planet.
. The man miles away is taxed to
!. build roads, and the people along
. Ethe pike get the selling value Of
them. Rather queer, too, when i
. Eone thinks of it for a few min
utes.

. ment for good roads and also for
