ROUSING MEETING Mass Meeting Saturday Ev- ening Largely Attended By Citizens of City. RESOLUTIONS PLEDGING SUP- PORT FOR RAILWAY. Memorial to Common Couneil Largely Signed—Every- body “Boosting”, The mass meeting at the court house Saturday evening called out a large attendance the court room being comfortably filled, The meeting was called to order by Mayor Ludington and Attor- | ney L. H. Bailey was called upon to outline the Red Lake railway proposition as it is up to the city. Mr. Bailey responded with an energetic address pointing oub the benefits to be derived by the city from the road and the need of immediate unanimous action. Mr. Bailey’s remarks were freely applauded. Mr, Stoner gave a brief description of the work as it has thus far proceeded and de- tailed what the city is expected to doin the master. A resolution was thereupon offered by Jay L. Reynolds pledging the moral sup- port of the citizens of the city to the common council in whateyer action they may find necessary in securing the road. The reso- lution was signed by all the busi- ness men and tax payers present and a committee consisting of George W. Campbell, W. W. Browne and E. H. Winter was ap- pointed to secure the signatures of those not present at the meet- ing. As soon as the city has been canvassed the comittee will leave the resolutions at the post- office where they may be signed by anyone. The meeting adjourned with a determination on the part of every one to leave no stone un- turned that might result in bringing the road to Bemidji. About three hundred signa- tures had been secured at two o’clock this afternoon. Chamberlain’s €ough Remedy. No one who is acquainted with its good qualities can be sur- prised at the great popularity of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. Tt nat anlv euyes colds and grip effectually and permanently, but prevents these diseases from re- sulting in pneumonia, It is also a certain cure for croup. Whoop- ing cough is not dangerous when this remedy is given. It con- tains no opium or other harmful substance and may be given as confidently to baby as to an adult. It is pleasant to take. ~ When all these facts are taken nto consid- erationit is not surprising that people in foreign lands, as well as at home, esteem this remedy very highly and very few are willing to take any other after having once used it.

Last Saturday evening County Auditor Sylvester tendered his resignation and a meeting of the board of county commissioners was called this morning for ten o’clock to act upon the resigna- tion and to fill the vacency. The resignation was accepted and Deputy C. O. Moon was elected for the balance of the term, Mr, Sylvester has been very des- pondent over his defeat and since the primary election the work of the office has gotten in the ar- rears., An arrangement will probably be made by which Clerk of Court F. W. Rhoda, who is an expert accountant and thoroughly familiar with the work of the auditor’s office, will act as deputy auditor and clean up all the back work before the first of the year. BEST ROUTE R. H. Dickinson Claims That Buena Vista Beats All The Others. R. H. Dickinson who is in the city from Buena Vista today is confident that the route surveyed through Buena Vista is the best route for the Red Lake railway to take. He has studied the whole matter out very carefully and is convinced that he can show the officials of the road that it will be much more to their ad- yantage to go throught Buena Vista than to take the route fur- ther west. Before the route is finally settled upon he will lay his facts and figures before the ofticers of the road. The second route as it is now surveyed runs about two and one half miles west of Buena Vista. Hold Meeting. A meeting of the Business Men’s Club was called this after- noon to meet with Attorney A. Ueland, of Minneapolis, repres- enting the Red Lake railroad company to discuss the final de- tails of the agreement between the company and the city for the extension of the road. The business of the meeting had not been coucluded as we go to press. Opvak Im Cloarwator County- Arrangements have been com- pleted by which BE. F. Crawford of this city will deliver two ad- dresses in Clearwater county for the republicen county committee. The first will be given next Tues- day evening at the school house in the townof Moose. The re- publican candidates will all be present, the country is thickly settled and thereis every indica- tion of a largely attended meet- ing. Dedicate in November. The members of the Baptist church are arranging to dedicate the new church the third week in November. Owing to the cyclone which did so much damage in the twin cities some weeks since, the windows for the church have been delayed but are expected now within a week or so. The new church will be a very com- fortable and convenient edifice. Play at Turtle River. The ladies of the Congrega- tional church at Turtle River WATCH This Space For TOMORROW gave an entertainment Saturday evening at Johnson’s Hall which netted the church over $20. The play was well rendered, each of the participants making a good impression, The proceeds go to assist in defraying the expense of a new foundation for the church. Relative of William Cullen. Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Warfield left this morning for Princeton, Illinois, where they will attend the wedding of Mr. Warfield’s sister who is to be married to Dr. Bryant, a cousin of William Cullen Bryant. Mr. and Mrs. Warfield will extend their trip to the world’s fair and will be gone ten days or two weeks. Run By Stickers, It is given out that Attorney Thomas Keefe of Bagley, who was defeated for the republican nomination for county attorney by Edward Tietsworth, will run for the office by stickers. Mr. Keefe is a hustler and will doubt- less relieve the campaign for county attorney in Clearwater county of any monotony. Snow at Blackduck. There was quite a heavy fall of wet snow at Blackduck and other points up the north line this morning, For a time it appeared that rain might turn to snow in Bemidji also. The memory of the oldest inhabitant does not go back to the time when this coun- try has experienced so unpleas- Princess Grocery Co M. E.

WILL EMPLOY FOUR HUNDRED ADDITIONAL MEN. Big Warchouse Now in Process of Erection For Company Near Wilton. The Clearwater Logging com- pany are preparing to put in five additional camps in the im- mediate vicinity of Wilton, and work has in fact begun upon the camps. These camps will be about ten miles from Bemidji and it is understood that they will give employment to not less than 400 men. The company has already be- gun onthe erection of alarge warehouse and depot which will be used as sort of a headquart- ersand supply point for all of the winter’s work of the Clear- water Logging company. The camps of the Cilearwater Logging company will be nearer to Bemidji than any other lum- ber camps for some time. The company will this winter be one of the most extensive loggers in northern Minnesota and their big camps where Supt. John C. Parker always makes visitors welcome, will doubtless be the objective point of many parties of sight seers this winter. The fact that the camps are so near to.town will also doubtless bring the men more frequently to the city for on occasional day’s di- version. Cause of Lockjaw. Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a bacillus or germ which ex- ists plentifully in street dirt. It 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 may be destroyed and all danger of lockjaw avoided by ap- plying Chamberlain’s Pain Balm freely as soon as the -injury is received. Pain Balm is an antiscpbic and ocansos ents, bruises and like injuries to heal without maturation and in one- third the time required by the usual treatment. Sold by Bar- ker’s Drug store. GETS $3000 Mabel Shufelt, nee Benson, Gets Verdict for Damages Against M &L Some months ago Mabel Shu- felt, better known as Mabel Ben- son was accidently shot in the arm by a brakeman at Blackduck on the Minnesota & International passenger, Mrs. Shufelt as soon as she was“well enough immedi- ately brought action in the fed- eral court claiming $10,000 dam- ages. Saturday it as reported that the case had been settled out of court for §3,000. The case was to have been heard before Judge Bunn at Fargo. Tips of the Tongue Postmaster G. H. Carson: “Pos- tal receipts are keeping up very nicely. The past two quarters have been large enough to secure free delivery for the city if the average is maintained for the year. The ensuing twe quarters will doubtless ‘provo heavier than the past two, so that Bemidji is fairly certain of securing free delivery.”’ Sergeant Witte: ‘“Enlistments were pretty slow for a while a few weeks back, but they are coming rapidly now, and the bus- iness that is being done at this point is very satisfactory.”’ Joe McTaggart: ¢The volume of travel during the past ten days seems to have remained at a stand still. More freight is now being received in Bemidji, how- ever, than for some time,” F. N. Lang. “Notagreat deal of work is being done at the han- dle factory just at present. We anticipate a busy winter, how- ever, and have orders enough ahead to tax the capacity of the plant for along time. It is im- possible to secure material in sufficient quantities at present.’’ A. M. Pierce; ‘The flour, feed and hay business is very good in- deed. We are having all that we cando to fillour orders. The re- tail business is steadily improy- ing.” gis WRITE IT DOWN Can’t Remember Whether Steen- erson is a Representative or a Senator. A well known Bemidji gentle- man is absolutely lacking in the political sense, and declares that he can’t for the life of him re- member whether Mr. Steenerson is a representative in congress or a United States senator. He grows desperate about the mat- ter sometimes and has thought that he would buy him a book and write it down so he can re- member. This gentleman is F. N, Lang. Mr. Lang declares that he cannot work up any interest whatever in things political—that he does not know whether the United States has a vice president now or not, and if he did know that it had, he would not know the man’s name. Different people have varing interests in. varing things, but there are few people in this country who do not take an in- tense interest in politics, so that Mr. Lang’s stands out by itself as a most peculiar one. WANT 500 Heavy Demands Made on Bemidji Employment Offices For Men. There are more men in the city at present thanis generally supposed. The men as a general thing however, are not anxious to get to the woods but prefer re- maining in town for a while. The various employment offices of the city are deluged with or- ders for'men and are at present totally unable to supply the de- mand. A member of one em- ployment firm informed the Pio- neer to day that if 500 men should arrive inthe city this evening not a. single man would have togoaway without a job. The steady demand for men, with the opening of many new camps not heretofore counted on indicates that the winter will be a busy one for the loggers in this vicinity. i Seven for Army. Sergeant Witte of the local re- cruiting station has seven wen in town for shipment west for the Uuited States' army. One will enter the hospital service at Saa Hranciseo while the rest will 50 to Seattle. The Bemidji office continues to lead all others in the northwest for number of enlist- ments. To Blackduck. Dar Reese will address the re- publicans at Blackduck tonight and a number of republicans will go up from here to attend the meeting. Mr. Reese will speak in Bemidji tomorrow night.
