Are you one of those unfortu-
mates who suffer with pains in your
muscles and joints, commonly called
rheumatism, making you miserable;
less efficient, interfering with your
working hours, running your sleep?
You may have tried many things
without relief. Why not try S.S.S.?

MYSTERY man
is C. 0. P. KEY
IN NORTHWEST
Minnesota Wonders What
Bachus Is Doing
and Why.
BY ROSCOE B. FLEMING

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. n.-Meet
Edward w. Backus,' the new power
behind the Republican throne in
the northwest, and Minnesota'S man
of mystery.
He Is the business overload of
Minneapolis, estimated to be worth
between $5O,OO0,000 and $1O0,00O,OO0.
He owns immense lumber and tim
Der mills not only in this State
but in Ontario.
His timber holdings, in thousand
square mile. lots, are scattered from
Lake Superior to Hudson's Bay.
He owns immense power rights
and controls one railroad.
His business partner, William F.
Brooks, is Republican National Com
mitteeman from Minnesota. Be-
hind him stands Backus. The lat
ter has retired the old political
bosses of Minnesota to their private
offices, where they sit and watch the
procession go by.
Why the Mystery
His position of political and buSl-
ness power means that in any future
Republican lineup following the
announced retirement Of President
Coolidge, Backus must be dealt with
as the largest single factor between
Chicago and the Rockies.
Now why the mystery? 1t Is
simply that no one in Minnesota
knows what he is doing or why he
is doing it, with the power he has
acquired in the last five years, or
what his mental processes are. Even
the most informed Minnesota poll
ticians profess not to know, or in
what lineup he will be found when
the time comes to name successor
to Calvin Coolidge.
He keeps his own council, they
say, and Minnesota probably will
find out what l-o wants after he gets
1t and not before.

vests lone wolf of business. He him
self has testified that coming TO
Minnesota as a young man in the
'8O's. unaided and friendleSs, he
was worth $3,OOO,OOO by 1901. From
that time on I didn't have to Work," "
he has said, with unconscious
humor.
taking few into his confidence,
keeping the vast details of his bust
ness all centered about himself,
working sixteen hours a day, he has
since immensely increased his hold
ings. Possessor of unlimited ambi-
ton he is known to be. Where is it
leading him, and what does he
dream?
Immense super power holdings in
the heart of the continent, conferred
about 100000 horsepower potential
: tiles of the Winnipeg River, part OF
whose watershed he is said to con-
troll?
Minnesota doesn't know and
would like to learn.
