RAILROAD A SURE THING Committee of Business Mens’ Club Returned From Twin Cities. RECEIVED ASSURANCE THAT ROAD WOULD BE BUILT. Work on Grading Will Commence as Soon as Right of Way Is Secured. The committee of the Business Men’s club, consisting of Messrs M. D. Stoner, Senator K. J. Swedback and W. G. Schroeder, who were sent to St. Paul last weelk to confer with the ofticials of the Minneapolis, Red Lake and Manitoba Railroad company, re- turned to Bemidji yesterday. During the time they spent in the Twin Cities they visited the directors of the railroad company and were given assurances that leaves no doubt that the road will be built into Bemidji as sooon as the right away is secured by the business men. The committee called on Gen- eral Manager Ward o the Great Northern, and spent some time with him talking oyer the pro- posed building of the new road. Mr. Ward expressed himself as heartily in favor of the proposi- tion and promised his hearty co- operation and influence in an en- deavor to secure the road for Be- midji. The visit to Mr. Ward by the committee was o eat bene- fit, as one of the difticulties that laid in the path of of road was to secure a cr over the Great Northern tracks mile west of the city. The com- mittee did better than this how- ever, and Mr, Ward promised that the Great Northern tracks could be leased and used by the new company froma point just this side of the sink hole in the mp west of the city to the ssippi river, Mr. Ward’s proposition was heartily agreed to by both the directors of the road and the Business Men’s committee and unless other contingencies arise this will be the route. It only remains now for the en- gineers to malke another prelimi- nary survey and secure a satis- factory line for the building of the road to be commenced, and it is confidently stated that this will be accomplished within a few days.

LITTLE EVIDENCE BROUGHT OUT BY STATE. State Rested Its Case at Noon And Defense Now Trying Witnessess. Bersvend Roen, charged with killing his neighber, Ole Bakken, last June, is being tried at the court house today before Judge Spooner for manslanght in the first degree. The jury was secured Saturday night and the examination of the state’s witnesses began this morning. Only a few witnessess testified and the state rested its case at noon today. Little was brought in the testimony to show that Roen even committed the crime, and indications point to his being acquitted. Henry f'unkley, who appears for Roen, began his case this afternoon and he examination of the witnesses is still in progress. The defense put up is that Roen was so drunk at the time he killed Bakken that he did not know what he was do- ing, and he himself claims that he does not know whether he stabbed his neighbor or not.

ACTION OF COUNCIL AWAITED WITH INTEREST. Meeting Promises to be One Of Most Interesting Held Dur- ing Present Year. At the meeting of the city council tonight several yvery im- portant matters will come up for consideration, among them being the petition of the retail liquor dealers opposing the establish- ment of the variety theater on Second street. The petition has aroused considerable interest among all classes in the city and the action of the city council will be looked forward to with much interest. The liquor dealers claim that the establishment of the show house would have a tendency to injure both the commercial and social interests of the city, while other business men protest that the theater would be a drawing card and would bring many peo- ple tothe city who would not otherwise yisit Bemidji. What action the council will take has not been given out, and no expression of opmion as to what will be done with the peti tion has been given out by any of the members, but each of the op- posing factions claim that their influence will be strong enough to bring the council to act their way. The committee of the Business Men’s Club which conferred with the railway officials in Minneapo- lis will report to the council to- night as to what they accom- plished on the trip.

Mr. Dunn will be accompanied by Marshal Grimshaw of Minne- apolis, who will also deliver a short address to the people on republicanism. The main feature of the meet- ing, however, will be the speech of Mr. Dunn, and it is expected that he will clearly define his stand on many questions of vital importance to the people of this section, as well as to every other part of the state. One of the im- portant questions upon which Mr, Dunn will speak will be the drainage problem, which is con- sidered as being especially in- teresting to northern Minnesota. Mr. Dunn has made a short tour throughout the western sec- tion of the state and has been welcomed by large crowds where- ever he has appearcd. He ap- pears at Crookston tonight and the people of that city have made preparations for a grand rally. The meeting in Bemidji prom- ises to be ono of the most success- ful political meeting ever held in this part of the country, and Chairman Olson and the remain- der of the county committee have been busy for some time past completing arrangements for the reception of Mr. Dunn. It was absolutely impossible to secure a special train to run from the north line towns, but those from Blackduck. Farley, Ten- strike, Turtle River and North- ome can come down on the pas senger tom orrow mm'ning.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a bacillus or germ which ex- ists plentifully in street dirt. 1t is inactive so long as exposed to the air, but when carried beneath the skin, as in the wounds caused by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and when the air is ex- cluded the germ is roused to ac- tivity and produces the most vir- ulent poison known. These germs inay be destroyed and all dangey of lockjaw avoided by ap- plying Chamberlain’s Pain Balm freely as soon as the injury is received. Pain Balm is an antiseptic and causes cuts, bruises and lik: injuries to heal without maturation and in one- third the time required by thel usual treatment. Sold by Bar-| ker’s Drug store.
