———“A- FOUR. CORNERED CAMPAIGN FOR COUNTY SUP’T OF SCHOOLS. H. M. EDMUNDS, of Bemidji. Beltrzum is a big county and its eduactional interests contain | interesting possibilities for devel- | opment on account of the newness of the county, which perhaps ac- counts for the number of candi- dates who aspire to fill the im- portant office of County Superin- tendent of Schools. Thus far, three candidates have announced themselves, J. J. Regan of Sol- way, H. M. Edmunds of this city, and D. H. Congdon of Blackduck, while it is generally understood that Superintendent Dunwoody who has held office for six years past will be a candidate for re- election. The county is to be congratulated upon the fact that men of such ability and experi- ence have offered themselves for the position. All of the gentlemen named have had ample experience in school work, are endowed with a liberal education, and are close- ly in touch with school affairs. The campaign promises to be a spirited one, but the high charac- ter of the gentlemen who aspire to this important office is sufficient surety it will be ¢lean and manly. D. H. CONGDON, of Blackduck. TO BOOM THE R. R. Conference of Business Men Yesterday Afternoon Took Important Action. TOWARD SECURING RAILWAY TO BUENA VISTA AND RED LAKE. Tams Bixby Will Confer With Railway Representatives in Twin Cities. 1mportant action was taken at a meeting of the Business Men’s club yesterday afternoon toward securing a railroad north from Bemidji to Buena Vista, Nebish and Red Lake. It is well known that the bond holders who have taken over the property of the Red Lake Transportation com- pany, desire to extend the road whichnow terminates at Nebish to some point where they may connect with either the Great Northern or the M. & I. The advantages which would accure to such a road by building south from Nebish through Buena Vista to Bemidji have been laid before some of the stock holders and the extension is understood to meet with their favor. At the meeting of the clnb yes- terday afternoon Mr. Bixby was appointed as committee of one to PRINCESS Grocery Co. M. E. CARSON, Manager.

The Pioneer is in receipt of the following characteristic letter from one of ‘“‘us jacks” as the writer styles himself and pub- lis it not as a contnbuhon to “perlitikal econimi” but as set-| ting forth the “neads of a lumber town” from the point of view of the boys in the woods.

Dizziness '1 FLOUR AND FEED MILL Senator Val Batz of Heldings- ford Considers Locating One in Bemidji. MET WITH BUSINESS MEN'S CLUB YESTERDAY. Mr. Batz Considers Bemidji An Excellent Location For a Custom Mill. Senator Val Batz of Heldings- ford, Stearns county, spent yes terday in Bemidji. Senator Batz is the owner of a custom mill at Heldingsford where he also con- ducts a creamery and a general store. He has for some time been favorably impressed with Bemidji as a location for a custom mill and his visit here was for the purpose of examining more closely into the matter. Held- ingsford is not on a railroad and the senator has determined to re- move the mill to a more favor- able point. He has spent some time in driving over the country tributary to Bemidjiand beheves that a mill could be made to pay here. A meeting of the Business Men’s club was calied yesterday afternoon to talk the matter over with Senator Batz. He stated that if he came to Bemidji he should install a 100 barrell mill, that the mill would employ eight to ten men but that the principal value of the mill to Bemidji would be in the effect it would bave in building up the tributary coun- try. A proposition was made to ; Sonator Batz and his answer is expected within a few days. Eagles Social Tonight. The Eagles will give a smoker lodge rooms tonight. eral good time is anticipated.
