The campaign so far has been carried on with little bitterness and in a clean and upright manner, the candidates standing upon their merits and expounding their side fof the matter rather than attempting to belittle the other side. .| resigned some time ago has gone LIVES IN DANGER Great Northern Train on Hal- stad Line Narrowly Escapes Bad Wrecek. Last evening the Great North- ern train on the Halstad line had a narrow escape from what might of been a disastrons wreck. As the passenger south bound was speeding along be- tween Shelly and Halstad, it run full speed into a dump car of dirt standing on the track. The car was thrown into the air, and the train came to a standstill without injury to the engine beyond de- molishing the fender. At the rate the train was going, it was a wonder that the engine and sev- eral cars were not ditched. NEW MATRON Mrs. Watson, Formerly of Be- midji, Takes Charge of Bethel Rescue Home.

For the past thirty-six hours every west-bound train through the city has been crowded with hunters and their paraphernalia of dogs, guns, camping outfits, ete., demonstrating that the num- ber of hunters in the field tomoxr- row morning will be greater than ever before. On the night trains last night, the baggage cars were full of dogs. Dogs in crates were piled up to the roof of the cars, while the floor was crowded with dogs chained to the baggage so closely that there was barely room for the baggageman to move about. Reports from the executive agent of the fish and game commission are to the ef- feet that more licenses than ever before have been granted to non- residents hunters, and the rush of hunters into the chicken coun- try bears out the belief that more guns than ever before will be in the fields tomorrow morning. TO BE RESTORED Reported That Cass Lake Land District Will Be Given Its Original Territory. After a wait of nearly four months the general land office at Washington has received a report of the special agent who was sent to investigate the feasibility of giving the Cass Lake land office additional territory which now lies in the Duluth land district. Owing to the absence of Land Commissioner Richards and Sec- retary Hitchcock, who will not return to Washington until the middle of next month, the report of the special agent will not be made public. The report has been filed away until the return of the two offi- cials, who will make its contents known. It is learned, however, that the special agent’s report recom- mends that Cass Lake land dis- trict be given its original terri- tory, which was cut down by re- quest of the report of J. Adam Bede, and restored to the Duluth land district. Dance Hall For Nymore. E. O.

BEAUTIFUL LITTLE FARM NORTH OF BEMIDJI. What S. A. Phelps Has Done in Beltrami County With a Capital of $1. Less than a mile north of the head of Lake Bemidjiis the forty acre farm of S. A. Phelps which everybody ought to see. Two years ago this month Mr. Phelps whois a gray haired man, perhaps sixty years of age, ar- rived in Bemidji with a few house- hold goods and $1 in roney. He purchased forty acres north of the'head of the lake making his first payment with his quarterly pension money, for Mr. Phelps isanld soldier. He built him a little log hut and commenced to clean up his forty acres. With- out a horse, without a helper, with nothing but his two hands Mr. Phelps toiled on his little farm. Today itis paid for, the brush has been cleaned from the whole farm, one of the most sub- stantial and neatest appearing fences in the whole county has been built around it, a large and immalculately clean log house has been built 100 yards back from the road and two and one half acres has been cleared and made into a garden every foot of | X which is ‘producing some of the finest vegetables ever grown. The place is a beauty spot with its comfortable home set far back in a magnificent grove and no passer oy can withold his tongue from praising it. If a solitary old man with his two bare hands can do this what cannot a strong young man do with a Beltrami county farm?
