to obtain money hey took her and her
sister in the court OF the house where
Anita was stood against the wall. A

FOR ROAD BOND SALE

County Auditor A. D. Johnson, re-
turning from a trip to st. Paul in the
interest of the county on matters per-
tanning to the sale, Of the road bonds
authorized by the county board OF
commissioners, states that the bond
market appears to be very low and
he feels certain that the issue will
not be able to be sold this year.
In case no sale is made for the pro-
posed bond issue, he advises that the
county proceed to improve the Be-
midji-Cass Lake road as soon as pos
sible and to that end the proposition
will be brought up before the meet
ing of the county board of commits
sioners to be held tomorrow and
Wednesday.
Such improvements in that case
would be nearly the extent of the
road building for the year.

DEATH" Everywhere the Americans
went for the next few days they were
confronted with the slogan.
Then one night some dOughboy got

morning the Italian officers were deep

WOMAN IN NEXT CONGRESS

The new congress will have Wo- man member for the second time in the history of the country. She is Miss Alice Robertson of Oklahoma, and she, like the first woman mem- Der of congress, was elected as Re- publican, defeating w. w. Hastings, Cherokee Indian who has served in the last three congresses as Demo- crat. Miss Robertson is 65 years of age. She has been a missionary, government teacher and worker among the Indians, postmaster and farmer. She is now wealthy, and, 1t is said, is master of up-to-date busi- ness methods and slang. She is very popular, raises good horses and con ducts farm. During the campaign she announced that she asked no fav- ors on account of her sex. q traded a woman's privilege for a man re- responsibilities" she declared, Host in that bargain with fate, but should take the consequence, and expect to do so."
 Miss Robertson has always been opposed to woman suffrage, and was a leader among the anti-suffragis of Oklahoma.
 The first woman to serve in con- gross was Miss Jeanette Rankin of Missoula, Mont. She was young and prepossessing in appearance. Her chef distinction in congress came from the fact that she could not re- strain tears when she voted on sev- eral important matters, including that cast against war with Germany.
