The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1917-05-08

Menahgas one OF the most
ardent boosters the Bemidji normal
had, spoke briefly. He lis q former
member of the Legislature and his
paper boosted hard for Bemidji and
his writings were copied throughout
the state. He sounded a strong note
when he gave utterance to the hope
that "that imaginary line between
Northern Minnesota; and Southern
Minnesota will be; eliminated" and
he spoke in, praise of what Senator
McGarry had done in Bemidjrs be-
half.

advocated the standing together OF
Northern Minnesota delegations in
the LEGISLATURE and the same for the

ing of the belief that if such were
done Northern Minnesota would OBJ

ferring to Mr.. Pendergast he ex-
pressed it that Mr.. Pendergast rose
like a spector, faced around before
the sneakers desk in the house ana
made his word good.
Nord Too Modest.
Senator McGarry referred to Nord's
modesty in telling of his experiences
before the senate committee but told
his hearers that che (Nord) RED
blooded and red headed, faced the
hardest committee in the world" and
that he (McGarry) "felt sorry for

with him and applauded and cheered
him to the echo, and the old war
horse smiled in genuine apprecia-
ton. He apologized for having been
ill the past six months and not in

said he believed he was being given
too much credit, and launched into
a glowing tribute to "those 80 men

DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is one
of the best and most reliable RENE

eral years, at last getting belfast.
He took treatment from, a 2physician

diagnosed his condition as Bright's
Disease and beyond recovery. He
began taking Swamp-Root and after
two or three bottles began to feel
better and after taking 30 bottles

lieve it is one of the best and we

ches were ground to powder. When
he was rebuffed at the outset, Rep
resenta+iye Pendergast said he was
determined to go to his friends on
the floor of the house and did SO,
but that he couldn't even now ex-
plain how it all happened. He ap-
pealed to Bemidji to give credit to
those representatives in the extreme
southern part of the state and those
from all other parts who stood Dy
fBemidji, and not to forget what they
did for Bemidji. ~
Urges $4,000 Use.'
Representative Pendergast REFER
red to the $4,000 secured two years
ago for the normal and urged get
ting busy at once and spending IL.
He closed mid cheers and loud ap-
plause. e 70 % X.
Representative Miner, who is
member of the house finance COM
mtttee, also took occasion to remind
Bemidji strongly to- do something
with that $4,000 allowed two years
ago as it would expire August OF
this year, and Bemidji would lose 1t
if not taken advantage of.
Man Behind the Gun.
H. F.. Reynolds, the man sent to
St. Paul by the Commercial club 10
work for the Bemidji normal, was
next, and he said that what he had
intended to say, had already been
said but he gave a complete analysis
of the steps through which the nor
NAL item passed and stated that no
other man, no matter who, could
have done what Representative Pen
dergast had done for Bemid]l' ana
he urged all to give support to what
was ahead of Bemidji in the upbulid-
ing of the normal, asserting the
school project had much ahead and
that it needed every bit of support
available.

Senator McGarry then reminded
the people of Bemidji that one of the
best workers on the job in behalf OF
Bemidji and it's normal was Lieuten-
ant Governor FranksOn, who urged
at every opportunity its success and
made it a matter Of personal con-

A Shiftless Nation

Self-denial is a fundamental
virtue, especially for all who have
their own way to make in the
world; happiness for the great
majority of people depends on the
wholesome restraint of desires
rather than on their gratific alton,
because, when unchecked, those
desires are forever stretching out
beyond present reach. 1t seems
strange that, especially in our
country, people shrink from say
ing 81 can't afford it," when econ
omy means safety and content
ment, whereas false pride brings
danger and unhappiness. Fear of
being thought poor or stingy has
brought misery, and often crime,
into many household.
The average wages, salaries and
incomes are higher in this country
than in any other, yet our savings
banks do not make creditable
showing. Fourt cen countries
greatly outrank ours in the pro-
portion of savings accounts to
population. In thrift, as indicated
by the savings banks, we stand at
the bottom of the list of the prime
ipal nations.
Newark post. (Newark, Del.) 1910-1969, 1917-05-09
riches upon this earth.

riches upon this earth.
In religion, however, there can
be no timid, heartless conserva-
tism. He who pitches his piety
low that he may stand by it, will
find he has no piety which will
stand by him in the trying hour
that to be a Christian we must be
positive and earnest in the SER
vice of Jesus is admitted by every
body: but the very readiness with
which the proposition is conceded
may prevent our feeling all its i'm
port.
Nothing is more common than
the self deception by which truth
is received as so true that we do
not give ourselves any trouble
about it. When it is announced,
we at once reply, nobody doubts it,
and because nobody doubts it we
allow it to sleep in our minds; and
act as if it were a falsehood. Now
surely in a matter of such infinite
Importance as salvation this sup
ineness is most deplorable.
Truly a man in his senses ought
constantly to be comparing his
conduct with his creed he ought
to say to himself, 81 believe this
truth, | know it. What has been,
what is it's influence upon my char
acter? Are my hopes, my plans,
my life, in harmony with my prin-
ciples"?

THE POOR OF THE, CITY
One Farmer S View Of 1t

Country people have heard OF
the so-called bread riots in New
York, and various good people
have gone out to ask the farmers
to contribute money to help the
city poor. Most of the farmers do
not take kindly to such appeals
while farm help is scarce or i'm
possible to find. The following
note from a reader OF the Rural
New Yorker in Seneca Co.. \. Y,
shows how they talk:
Country people have little SYM
pathy for all OF this cry O; starv-
ing in the city. The reasons are
many, and plain farm help is scarce
and very high, but it seems people
much prefer to starve or be fed by
charity than 60 to tine country
where no one goes hungry. Here
is a case in point: A young fellow
drifted here with lot of railroad
employees, ragged and wearing one
shoe and one slipper. A farmer
employed him and he informed
them he had a wife in the city
starving, when the farmer and his
good wife sent the funds Tor her
to come to their home. The cou-
pie worked fairly we'll and seemed
contented. beng we'll led aud
clothed, when in the dead OF Win
ter they discovered they had the
magnificent sum OF eighty dollars
due them, when they packed their
belongings and d"par:e! .or the
city on first train. soon again to
be starved out and again tramp to
the land OF plenty. This is only
one OF many that come 70 light
every day, yet how seldom can one
OF these be induced to stav in the
country? Then why have we SYM
pathy for them? They will 90 to
the country only when starved
and return as soon as they have a
few dollars ahead. {. s. F
One can hardly blame farmer
with such an experience. from
feeling as this one does. Not all
the poor people in New York ere
OF the type here described. Some
OF them would like to find homes
i'll the country, but they seen
afraid to venture. The farmer has
his idea OF the city poor man, art
that man has his idea OF the far.
mcr. Both are partly wrong ant
they must understand eaci, other
better before they can be mutual
ly helpful.

In politics-with it's turnings,
windings, shiftings, shufflings,
everlasting sinuosities, tortuos-
tiles, ambitexturitus - there is
nothing like trimming; it saves one
from the charge of inconsistency
and apostacy. Mr.. Burke said, 81
pitched my whiggism low, that |
might stand by it."
In business, too, man often
succeeds through the absence of
all strong, generous elements in
his character and conduct. Let
there be no noble impulses, nc
warm tender sensibilities, no SYM
pathy with human misery, no large
public spirit-the want of these
qualities is a great negative treas
ure to him who lives only to amass
