Catered In tne postoffice at Bemidji, Minn., is second class matter SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR A Progess of Year. THE year of 1905 has been a notable one in the development of Beltrami county. Two new roads into new territory have been built, opening for settlement some of the iiaest lands in the state of Minnesota, covered with hard woods and of a rich rolling soil, easily drained, and once cleared, destined to become among the most valuable agricul tural lands in the northwest. New towns have already been platted along the lines of these new roads and that section of Beltrami county between Be midji and*the great Red Lake will quadruple in population within the next eighteen months. These two roads, in addition, help to make Bemidji the most important railroad center in north central Minnesota, and the proposed road from this city to Detroit will make Bemidji a division point on more than one railroad and a railroad town of the first importance in northern Minnesota. Development of the resources of Beltrami county has hardly begun. We have been too busy cutting off pine, When the pine is all gone Beltrami county will have made a good start toward permanent growth and its progress from that time on will be steady and rapid. Gaining Headway. THE meeting of the executive committee of the state drainage league at St. Paul, Saturday was well attended and attracted general attention, so much so, that it constitutes another long stride toward the speedy solu tion of the drainage problem. The one great obstacle to the carrying out of a comprehensive policy of drainage has been the ignorance, and consequently the indifference, of the people of the state as to what drainage means and what it will accomplish. The state drainage league has already done a great work in stirring the state to a realization that drain age means more to the state as a whole than has been supposed. The Crookston meeting of the league, the meeting with the Du ulth Commercial Club and last week's meeting of the executive committe of the league have done much for drainage. At the meeting Saturday a committee was appointed on edu cation and the work of this com mittee, which will issue bulletins from time to time, will go a long way toward convincing our repre sentatives, bqth state and nation, of the need of systematic aid from the government. Cold It should be borne in mind that every cold weakens the lungs, low ers the vitality and prepares the system for the more serious dis eases, among which are the two greatest destroyers of human life, pneumonia and consumption. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has won its great popularity by its prompt cures of this most common ailment. It aids expectoration, re lieves the lungs and opens the secretions, effecting a speedy and permanent cure. It counteracts any tendency toward pneumonia. I Price 25c Large Size 50c.

Fall is that season of the year when housecleanmg days fall with awful weight upon the un happy head of the house. ^J0- The secretary of the state drainage league protests that he should not be suspected of drain ing the league's money into his own pockets and declares there is not much to drain anyhow. Probably notnow. Maybe the Indian would waste his substance in riotous living did the goyernment give him own once for all. Maybe the need to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow would make a man of him afterward. NEW GROCER TO BE STARTED K. K. Roe and Christ Marku son Will Engage in Busi ness in Bemidji. A new grocery store is to be established in Bemidji in the near future, and upon the arrival of the stock of goods, which has already been ordered, K. K. Roe and Christ Markuson will engage in business in the building on Fourth street at the rear of the Swedback block. Messrs. Roe and Markuson have been resi dents of Bemidji for several years past and have been con nected with the W. G. Schroeder store for some time. Both are men of well known ability and they will undoubtedly make a success of the new venture. Victory for the Employers.
