If the Dunn newspapers
are so definitely sure that the
Princeton man will be the
next governor, why should
they spend so much time and
space in trying to show that
Judge Collins is not eligible
for the position?Brown's
Valley Tribune.
One reason why Dunn's sup
porters are so sure of his nomi
nation is that they are leaving no
stone unturned to secure it. It
is the man who is cock sure and*
who lays down because he is
cock sure, that gets beaten. Bob

Dunn is not going to be
that way.
THE administration organs']
otherwise known as the twin
city dailies, announce Judge Col
lins' resignation from the bench
for the near future,
General Douglas is prominently
mentioned to succeed him. Mr.
Douglas has many friends in
northern Minnesota and his apon
pointment would simply be the
recognition of merit.
Now and then some disgustled
newspaper takes a crack at Sec
retary of State Hanson and hints
that he would not be hard to
beat. Perhaps not-- no one
seems to have the temerity to
put such a belief to the proof,
however.

can be no doubt that
Bemidji has fairly entered upon
a period of transition and that
before another year has rolled
around there will be important
changes. The movement to in
corporate as a city now so suc
cessfully under way means the
putting off of many things which
ill become a city of this size. It
is needless to enumerate. Every
citizen can count enough for him
self. It also involves a better
appreciation of the varied pos
sibilities of Bemidji and an earn
est attempt to realize them.

FRUIT BREEDING A SCIENCE.
partment of Agriculture.
Fruit breeders have produced many
marvels, but nothing quite akin to the
unaided performance of a tree in For
farshire, Scotland, which last year
grew apples, and whose branches are
this year reported to be laden with
pears. There are more than 500 dif
ferent standard kinds of apples on the
English market and more than 800
different kinds of pears, but a tree
with an alternating crop of apples and
pears is an unaccountable oddity. New
varieties of fruit are frequently pro
duced in the laboratories of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture,
where fruit Breeding is carried to a
scientific perfection. Other experi
menters have made wonderful crosses
with peaches and nectarines, and the
plumcot is a new fruit obtained by
breeding the Japanese plum and the
common apricot.
NOT EVEN SKIN DEEP.
Fair Woman's Complexion a Matter of
Purchase.
She was a dream of colorblack and
white as to her costume, roses and'
cream in face and cheek. Every
woman who entered the car looked her
over with eyes that gleamed with ad
miration for her frock, hat, shoes and
Attorney i gloves. Every man paid that tribute
to Venus which shows the goddess
still reigns, whatever else has befallen
the other pagan deities. While the
women's attention was centered on'
her costume the men's eyes all rested
her face, calmly beautiful in its
outlines, surpassingly lovely in its
delicate pink and whiteness. Present
ly she stood up to leave the car, and
as she did so a little object fell from
the front of her waist: Three men
bumped their heady in their eagerness'
to reach it. The lucky one who picked
it up held it in such away that all who
sat might read. It was a box of
rouge!

Too Many Risks Were Involved in the I
Transaction.
Capt. Risk of the Mallory line
steamer Denver, plying between New
York and Galveston, Texas, is a bach
elor who attaches a great deal of im
portance to the question, "What's in
a name?" when applied to the matri
monial question. On one recent trip
a party of passengers were discussing
matrimony when the captain strolled
up.
"By the way. captain," said one of
the party, "how does it happen you've
never married?"
"Oh, he could never find a woman
willing to run the Risk," interjected
one of the feminine members of the
group.
"No, indeed," observed the mariner
"no one can run this Risk I'm cap
tain. And no one seems to want to
take the risk, either," he added.

The late Lord Salisbury behaved to
those about him with fatherly benign
ity, not unmixed with humor. One of
his secretaries was interrupted, on
one occasion, when conversing with
him over the telephone. He turned on
the intruder and addressed him with
winged words. Immediately after
wards Lord Salisbury was heard say
ing: "Go on, please your last words

the rebuke delivered to the interrupt

Among the curiosities recently ac
quired by the department of Egyp
tian and Assyrian antiquities in the
British Museum is an ostrich egg
pierced for suspension and covered
-with traces of a painted design, prob
ably of a predynastic period. Accord
ing to the experts of the department,
this egg is certainly nearly six thou
sand years old, as the design was
made not later than B. C. 4,000. The
-egg of the ostrich is said to have pos
sessed some religious significance
even in the predynastic period.Lon

A notable result of the recent cen

is the discovery that prayer-meetings,
which were once regarded as the vital
breath of life of the church, have al

borough of Chelsea, only thirty per
sons were found to be in attendance
at prayer-meetings. Thirty persons

services have also fallen into disuse.
