The fill- ing of candidates’ certificates before the county auditor has been going on for some time, but it is thought that a number of “dark horses” are yet to be sprung on the public.

Bemidji is considered by the people from the outside as one of the best towns in northern Minnesota. and hardly a day passes but remarks are heard from visitors about the liveliness of Bemidji compared with other towns in this section.

The semi-annual meeting of the stockholders of the Iron Range flectric Telephone com- pany was held in Wadena recently and some interesting facts were set forth at the meeting and the figures showing the financial standing of the company at the present time were yeyy gratify] ing to the stockholders. The Iron Range company was organized two years ago, with a capital of $75,000. For the first ix months this year a dividend of 9. 6 per wi was paid, this dividend being dec¢ at the rvecent eeting, This isa very fine showing and bids fair to be| exceeded during the last half of] the year. W, B. Baumbach is president of the company and in speaking of telephone maiters Monday he stated that his com- pany made perhaps the best record for the past six months of any company in the state. Mr. Baumbach said that ab the present rate the company would probably pay somewhere near 25 per cent for the year. The Iron Range comipany now has 175 miles of line running though the Red River Valley and from Crookston as far east as Cass Lake. There ave five ex- changes on the line, at Ada, Crookston, Bemidji, Cass Lake, and Grand Rapids although the long distance line does not run into the latter named place.

The blaze was dis- covered at one o’clogk and an alarm turned in, but when the firemen avrived it had been put out by people who were in the postoffice at the time it was dis- covered.
