The success’ of the| idea has been pronounced in whatever tried. Such a Dollar ¢ scheduled for cele at Croolkston 1 have been sccured and at the ame time was very advantage- ous to the buyer. The day set for the tirst Dollar Bargain Day in Bemiejiis Thuars. ay, November 3. This is the s that the republicans of the| ity have planned a big rally in| Bemidji. Noted speakers will! be secured, special rates will' be secured on the railroads and with a big bargain feast the day will attract hundreds of people to the city. In order that the greatest re- sults may be secured from the Dollar Bargain Day offers the Pioneer will beginning next Mon- to Bemidji that day. Thus every man and woman living in the territory tributary to Bemidji will be fully advised of the feast of bargains which he can secure next Thursday and there can be no doubt that Bemidji will see one of the biggest crowds in its history. What They Think of It, We append a few of the score or more of endorsements given the Dollar Bargain Day by the business men of Crookston where the plan was tried Tuesday: Kinder & McIntyre,(grocers)’ —We did the biggest business yesterday that we have handled since we have been in business in Crookston and alarge percent- age of it was from the country. The New Store,(Department store)—We had more farmer trade yesterday than we have had in any one entire week since we have been in business in Crookston. J. 8. Steiglitz—I sold goods in the jewelry line to many people from the county whom I had never seen before. the biggest business on Dollar Bargain Day that we ever did on any special sale day since we have been in business, with the exception of Jim Hill day. THE ROAD Evidences That the Great Northern is Trying to De- feat Red Lake R. R. OTHER POWERFUL INTERESTS ALSO ARRAYED AGAINST IT. Determined Effort Being Made to Prevent Extension of Road To Bemidji. The Great Northern has two engineers at work north from Vilton surveying a route for a railroad. The engineersare both Grand Forks men and are O. L, | Holman and F. Barrington. They have made Bemidji their headquarters for several days and have made no parti s to conceal their busin icinity, The surveying ol the road north from Wilton is believed to be a pavt of the game! of bluff which the Great North ern is playing in tempting to ¥ ihe extension of the Red Lake railway to this city. But the Great Northern is not alone inits attempt to prevent the building of the proposed road | to this city. Other powerfal in- sare said to be arrayed against the construction of the road as planded. Information to this effect has been received | from a source which seems en- tively reliable. Developments in the matter will be watched with a great deal of interest by the people of this city. Money to Loan—I ain prepared to handle all first class farm loans promptle.

Horses All Rescued—Catters And Sleighs Licked Up in The Flames. At six o’clock this morning the livery barn of Thomas Newby at 514 Second street caught fire and burned to the ground. The fire caught from a lantern which Mr. Newby had hung in the barn a few minutes before, the lantern having eviden‘ly explod- ed. Mr. Newby came into the barn from an adjoining barn just in time to see the flames leaping iuto the hay from the blazing lantern. Vigorous efforts were made to reach Central in order to turn in the alarm, but hefore this could be done ail the horses and buggies on the first floor were removed. When the department reached the scene, in a few minutes after the sounding of the alarm, the building was a mass of flames, and the building rapidly burned to the ground. Adjoining houses were scorched but prompes attention from the bucket brigade saved them. In addition to the building Mr. Newby loses a large quauntity of hay, one cutter, three sleighs and two buggies all of which | were stored in the second story of the building. . 1 There was an insurance of $1500 on the building, horses | and other stock. The insurance was secured through T. J. Miller who declares that it will be promptly adjusted. Make Final Proof.
