"wETs" CARRY BALTIMORE.
Monumental City Showed Under
Prohibition at Yesterdays
Election

Prohibition was showed under in
Baltimore in yesterdays election.
Apparently the same thing hap
nened in Baltimore county, but the
returns from there are rot as con-
elusive as those in the city. Annapo-
lis likewise is reported t. have gone
wet by 500 votes, while in Ellicott
City, the only place voting on the
question from which definite returns
have been received, the "drys" lost
OUT by 26 votes.
The results in Baltimore city were
a. surprise even to the most rabid an,
ti-prohibitionists. At midnight re-
turns from Isl precincts out of a
total Of 316 showed majority in
favor Of the sale of liquor of 21,516.
These figures Indicate a majority
against prohibition in the entire city
CT between 100000 and $4,000 votes
Only the lower precincts in Balti-
nrore county have been heard from,
olt they piled up such lead for
he "wets" that no one has any idea
that the upper precincts, which are
exp 'cted to go dry" can overcome
il.
Prohibition was voted upon also
in Allegany. Washington. Frederick

BACKACHE IS DIsO0URAGING
But Not So Bad If You Know How t

Nothing more discouraging than a
constant backache. Lame when You
awaken, pains pierce you when you
bend or lift. It's hard to work or to

kidneys. Bemidji people recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills. Read this case:
Oliver Gordhamer, carpenter, 1900
Dewey Ave., Bemidji, says: II was
stiff and lame in the morning and it.
hurt me to bring any strain on my
back. I believe it was heavy lifting
and hard work that brought on the
trouble. 1 was handicapped in doing
my work, especially STOPPING or lift

Kidney Pills strengthened my back

STAND BY WILSON

In a decidedly equivocal manner
congress has stood by President Will
son in his demand that he be sus-
tanned in his negotiations with Ger
many. Indications are that a ma
jority OF both houses voted to up
hold Mr.. Wilson on patriotic grounds
because as eX-Speaker Cannon put
it, "He is the the man whom we, of
ca: own free will, have elected
Pc dent and to whom we have en-
tru: ted our foreign affairs, and when
We are engaged in controversy
with a foreign nation it is not the
tirio to deplore or even to admit our
mistakes.'

CITY IMPROVEMENTS

The recommendations made by F..
S. Lycan, president Of the council,
at the council meeting Monday night
are approved by every we'll thinking
citizen of Bemidji. The improve
ments are necessary and we hope
that the council will be able to see
that the city gets them before the
close of this year.
The recommendations are the con-
struction Of a bridge over the Mis-
sissippi river at the inlet at an esti-
mated cost of 100000; the installa-
ton of a sewer system on Minne-
sofa avenue which it is estimated
would cost about $4,000; the pa
wing of four blocks on Beltrami av-
enue from Tenth to Fourteenth
street; the improving of the city
park system.
Another Improvement which we
believe should be made is road work
to connect the city with the state
rural highways.

the fellow who marches up to the

the clearing job is also much
healthier.

- Over 10000 babies, it is esti-
mated, endure unnecessary sickness
in this state each year.
This would indicate that about
one-half of our babies have severe
illness before they reach their first
birthday. About 5000, death certi-
ficntes show, succumb; the remainder
survive but many are more or less
Handicapped for life.
Prevent Needless Deaths.
If Minnesota mothers were prop
erly informed they could prevent
many needless deaths and much I'M
necessary illness. Child diarrhea,
summer complaint, improper feed
ing, if you please, kills over 1000
Minnesota babies each year, APP
proximately one out Of every forty
babies born is so Improperly fed that
it dies
Proper feeding for the infant
means breast feeding. Even though
the breast milk be scanty, it can be
used to advantage, in such cases the
baby should be nursed regularly to
the extent of the supply and then
if required Immediately make the
shortage good from the bottle; q
shortage can be easily detected by
weighing the baby before and after
nursing.
Bar Bottle Feeding.
Bottle feeding should never be
instituted except upon the advice Of
a physician; for the poor unfortunate
baby deprived of it's mothers milk
we know no better food to offer than
properly prepared cows milk;
neither patent foods nor condensed
milk are proper substitutes for
mothers. milk The best substitute
is good cows milk-properly modi-
fed; cows milk, however, must be
properly modified, that is according
to the age, health and strength Of
the child; proper modification is a
problem for a physician to deter
mine; where a physician cannot be
afforded the local health officer,
free dispensary or visiting nurse
should be consulted.
