Bemidji's Slogan.
$4,000 Population for Bemidji
in 1925.

1t is not very long way from
present conditions to a population of
$4,000 for the city of Bemidji.
With the natural surroundings to
warrant it and with alert and en-
terprising people determined to ac-
complish it and more, the coveted
mark is sure to be attained long
before 1925.
The widest possible circulation
should be given the well-written, il
Illustrated article contributed by F: A.
Wilson of this city which occupied a
full page in the Sunday edition
of the Minneapolis Tribune 1t is a
terse and comprehensive summary of
conditions as they exist today in Be-
midji and Beltrami county. It en-
phasizes the Importance of the work
being done by the Bemidji Merchants
association in promoting the interests
of this city and locality and in en-
listing the cordial and enthusiastic
support of the farming communities
in the campaign of development. 1t
gives the accurate information that
will arouse the interest of the out
side world and is at the same time
all inspiration to those now devoted
to the up-building of this section
To attract people to Bemidji and
Beltrami county only the truth may
be told, and once here, they will not
only become permanent residents,
but will induce their friends to join
them. The continent nowhere affords
a better opportunity for those who
seek pleasant healthful homes with
superior educational advantages To
clearly show present conditions is our
best method of publicity. This the
article referred to does most effec-
lively and is therefore worth wide
distribution.

Politics is a game in which the
loser is generally the winner in the
long run.-Winnebago City Enter
prise
The man who objects to a plan of
progress and has not the ability to
propose something as good or, better,
is not the kind of individual who is
making St. Cloud become better and
bigger city.-St. Cloud Journal Press.
Judged by the comments of the
state press Of all parties, the legis-
lature is the most devoid of leader
ship, in both bodies, of any in the
states history. There are lots of
talkers-but not one statesman.
"'Tis true, it's pity and pity it's it's
true!"-St. Cloud Times.
Speaking of the efficiency and econ
omy bill, the Morris Tribune remarks
that "the trouble with the bill is that
it's sponsors would plow up the whole
garden in order to get rid of a few
weeds" The illustration is faulty.
The truth is that the whole field is
choked by weeds, and that the only
way to get rid of them is to summer
fallow the tract, and make a new
planting at the next election.-Fer-
gus Falls Fheelock's Weekly.
Why should not railroads be per-
mitted to charge 21z cents per mile
for passenger fare if the present
charge is not enough to warrant a
reasonable return on the investment?
Charges must be regulated that way,
no matter how much we dislike to
pay an increase. If the railroads
can show that the present rate is
not sufficient, we must pay more.
While there is an unfriendly senti-
ment against railroads, and it cost
much effort to secure the present
rate, we must be fair. The method:
of regulating the passenger rate by
statute is wrong, and we favor a
change in the method instead of hav-.
ing the Legislature increase the fare.

migration is not likely to be accom- plished without difficulties, for Turk estan only became Russian about fifty years ago, and the mixed po- pulation still regard the Russian as an alien Conquerlng race.
 Better transportation facilities are necessary, not only to bring the crop to market, but also to provide wheat and other supplies for the increased population. The basis for the neces- sary transportation is already in ex- istence, however, both in Trukestan and Trans Caucasia. The Russian government has developed a system of railways. running east and west Turkestan, linked up with the Trans Siberian line. Trans Cau- casia also has some excellent rail- ways, with similar connection with the main Russian system.
 The cotton crop of 1914 in Turkes- tan and Trans Caucasia is said to have been the largest on record to much as 1,3OO0, 900 bales. Prices have been we'll main- tained. owing to the difficulties of supplies from abroad and the increased cost of transport from importation points.

 Between thirty thousand and forty thousand women and girls were on registers of the labor exchanges alone and q large number were on half time They knew also that the arma- ment factories instead of complain ing of a shortage of women labor, stated that there was no scarcity whatever. A personal investigation proved this to be the case. Since the government appeal had been made. however. MT. Runciman had announced that :he need for women was more protective than immediate. It was one thing for women to fill the places of men who had volun- tarily enlisted for service, but it was quite another thing for them to allow themselves to be used as in

PICTURE PLAY
 IF INTEREST
''The Clemenceau Case" Is Drama of Great Strength and Discloses Acting Such as Is Seldom Seen ill Picture Work.

l, rarely occurs that a successful drama is transferred from the stage to the screen without losing some of it's humanness and virility. There is all most always something lacking in the screen version Exceptions are just frequent enough to prove the rule. The Clemenceau Case" is one of these ex- captions. Here is a truly remarkable picture. story of expressing interest well told. splendidly produced and ex- ceptionally well acted. Theda Bara. William Shay and the little girl who plays the baby all do splendid work, in facr the '-close up" scenes in which the little youngster is dissolved in tears. her pleading with Uncle Pierre" to go to America with her, are really remarkable.
 The story is sufficiently well known not to need repetition. When it was produced a drama many years ago it created sensation. It is handled in much less unsavory manner on the screen than it was on the stage. and if the finish is horrible, it is at least logical and allows of some par ticularly good acting by MT. Shea and Mile. Bara.
 The photography throughout is very good and there is a continuity of in-, tereSt in the story and it's unfolding that is quite unusual in picture plays. The duel scene. for instance, is one of the best pieces of artistry that has been disclosed in motion pictures.
 One would never accuse The Clemenceau Case" of being a nice" picture. It is a horrible story, but it is most interesting, we'll acted and well worth seeing.

DIAGNOSIS OF TNE

The Englishman must have thing brought under his nose before he will act; bring it there and he will go on acting after everybody else has stopped. He lives very much in the
 moment because he is essentially Q. man of facts and not a man of i'm
 agination. Want of imagination
 makes him. philsophicaIly spleaking,
 rather hdicrous; in practical affairs
 it handicaps him at the start; but
 once he has got going" we say.
 it is of incalculable assistance to his
 stamina. The Englishman. partly
 through his lack of imagination and nervous sensibil.tX, partly through
 his inbred dislike of extremes, and habit of minimizing the expression of
 everything. is perfect example of the conservation of energy. It is
 very difficult to come to the end of
 him. Add to. this unimaginative.
 practical, tenacious moderation an
 inherent spirit of competition-not to say pugnacity-so strong that it will
 often show trough the coating of his 'live-and-let-live, half-surly, half good -humored manner: add pecu- liar, ironic. sdon't-care'' sort of hum
 or. an underground but inveterate humaneness and an ashamed ideal ism, and you get some notion of the pudding of English character. It's main feature is kind of terrible coolness, a rather awful level head edness. The Englishman makes con stant small blunders. but few, almost no deep mistakes.
 England produces more than its proper percentage of cranks and po- cts. and I take it this is natures way of redressing the balance in q country where feelings are not shown, sentiments not expressed and extremes laughed at. Not that the Engllshman lacks heart: he is not cold, as is generally supposed. on the contrary, he is warm hearted and feels very strongly: but just as peasants, for lack of words to eX- press their feelings. become stolid, so it is with the Englishman, from sheer lack of the habit of self express erately hypoeritical: but his tenacity combined with his powerlessness to express his feelings, often gives him the appearance of a Pharsee. It is the habit of men of all nations to want to have things both ways; the is, unfortunately. so un- able to express himself even to him self that he has never realized this. i much less confessed it-hence his appearance of hypocrisy.-John Gals worthy in North American Review,

Evils of Jealousy
It causes about as much suf-
fering to the human heart as
does remorse.
Doubling the faithfnlness of
friends without just cause, is a
crime against friendship.
When doubt or suspicion devel-
ops into green-eyed jealousy-
pearing every where, watching to
see if friends are untrue, it de-
stroys both friendship and hapi-
ness.
Jealousy has been called the
spice of the devil, and is a fire
burning with a madness that
often ends in murder or suicide.
Truthfulness is the fruit of
love. Destroy the root and the
tree of devotion dies.
Faith in friendship works mir
acles, and perpetuates it into the
forever.
Will it help you to fill your
soul with hateful jealousy. and
poison your spirit with the virus
of revenge? Is that Godlike?
How much happier one would
be to think only we'll of friends,
and refrain from slanderous gos-
sip and refuse to listen 10 such.
Christ can cure tie leprosy of
jealousy. He gives the antitoxin
of love. When the little demon
is driven out, the Saviour comes
in-and what a transformation.
Overwhelming love is the
passion of your being-when all
is right with Christ.
