T | TENSTRIKE AFTER US Flushed With Success Ten- strike Conceives Designs Against County Seat. LD DEPOSE. BEMIDJI AND RULE INSTEAD. The Hustling Town Up The M. & I. Prepare to Cast 500 Votes at Next Election. Tenstrike was not named Ten- strike for nothing; the hustling young town up the north line never undertakes anything that itdoes not make a ten strike of it, For some time Tenstrike has pursued the even tenor of its way, its citizens have made money and cast some 75 votes at election time. But suddenly Tenstrike dreamed of greater things and straightway set about to get them. It broughv out several candidates and de- manded their nomination: the outside world gave little heed, except tolaugh now and then av the little town’s bumptious am- bition. But election day rolled round and behold, Tenstrike cast 163 votes, and cast them as one man, and several certificates of nomination are now due its can- didates. It is said that this success has but kindled the zeal of Tenstrike. If the town could cast 163 votes so easily, and win so many offices thereby, why not cast two or three hundred more and aim at higher things? “Tenstrike,” said a promi- nent gentleman yesterday, ‘“is the coming town of the county. Its people have more enterprise to the square inch than any town I ever knew. Notice that vote they cast up there the other day? Well, that’s only a starter. Why, in a year or two Tenstrike will cast 500 votes and will be the county seat of Beltrami county.” Bemidji has a few votes itself but they are always cast at cro: purposes. The situation grows alarming and it is time we got to- gether. MET LAST NIGHT Republican County Committee Held Meeting and Discussed Campaign Plans.

The four new towns on the Great Northern extension north trom Thief River Falls are enjoy- ing a rapid growth and it is noth- ing at all strange for them to double in size over night. The towns are Holt, Middle River, Strathconia and Greenbush. Middle River promises to be- come one of the important towns of the Red River ‘valley and has already a population of two or three hundred. Allof the towns are situatedin the midst of a rich agricultural country with timber near at hand. Greenbush is the terminal of the Great Northern and will without doubt become the most populous town in Ros- eau county than which no county in the state has finer agricultural lands. Greenbush is 52 miles al- most straight north from Thief River Falls while Middle River is about half way between the two points.
