| | TO REFORM ‘THE JACKS Jabe Hines Intends to Make Ideal Citizens Out of His Employees. MEN MUST CUT OUT WINE, WOMEN AND TOBACCO. Payment for Work Will Be With- beld from Woodsmen Until End of Season. The Blackduck American, offi- cial paper for the publication of the plans, specifications, inten- tions, et cetera, of the Hines Col- onization company, Jabez Hines, (alias Wm. Hines), manager, con- tains an article this week which sets forth the manner in which workmen will be treated while in the employ of the company. An iron clad contract must be signed by each woodsman when he en- ters the employ of the company which sets forth that during the time he is employed he will neither use liquor of any de- scription, tobacco in any form, nor associate with women whose character is shady. He must also promise notto draw any money until the end of the log- ging season beyond his actual needs for the maintenance of his family or for the payment of debts and the checks issued for this purpose will be made out to his wife, providing he has one. Among other things which Mr. Hines says in the article is the following: ‘“About Jan.15 we intend to employ about two hundred lum- berjacks, and every man that stays till discharged shall have his employment fee returned to him. As far as we are concerned we are going to make a suc- cess of this contract. I propose to employ every bartender and saloon keeper that needs to work for a living and give them honest and clean work where they will have a clear conscience and a clear brain, for I am a friend of publicans and sinners. I do not belong to the goodie goodie class but have been helped from the deepest depths of sin myself by a kind and loving hand with or- ders to help cothers.” Mrs. A. B. Donaldson and daughter, Miss Floy, arrived in the city last night from Alexand- ria and have been the guests of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Henderson during the day. They will leave this evening for Northome for a visit in that city at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Ward. PRINCESS Grocery Co. Don’t forget that our line of Canned Goods is the best.

Halvorson & Carlson, contract- ors for the new Minneapolis, Red Lake & Manitoba railway now being built from Bemidji to Red Lake, have signed a contract with J. P. Pogue of this city for the use of his ‘“steam thawer” for the remainder of the winter, and Mr. Pogue is preparing to haul the new device out to the scene of active operations on the right of way, where it will be put into commission, The invention is a very simple affair and was used by Mr. Pogue in thawing out frozen hydrants and water mains last winter. It consists of a steam boiler to which is attached a long rubber hose, on the end of which an iron pipe is fastened. The steam is turned into fhe pipe, which, after it is placed endwise on the ground, bores a hole through any depth of frost and thaws the ground around it for a distance of several feet. The heat transmitted below the frost line will remain in the ground for several days and . will work upward, leaving the soil 1n a condition so that it may be re- moved with a shovel with little effort. Mr. Pogue has made a thorough test of the device and says that he can keep enough dirt soft and loose to supply hun- dreds of men with shovels and dump cars. The machine will be used in cuts through which the railway will pass and will prove a valuable aid in building the road. LAND TITLE - IS SETTLED White--Street Townsite Co. Wins Out in Case Against Northern Pacfic. A decision was handed down yesterday by Judge Brill of St. Paul in the district court of Ram- sey county which settles the title of 40 acres of swamp land near Tenstrike in favor of the White- Street Townsite company, and affects lands claimed heretofore by the Northern Pacific Railway company valued at $50,000. The case is the White-Street Townsite company against the Northern Pacific Railway com- pany, J. Neils Lumber company and Dwight F. Brooks. Judge Brill finds that the plain- tiff is the owner of the land and the defendants have no right, title or interest in it. The Northern Preific Railway company is a party defendant, as the successor of the|Little Falls & Dakota Railway company. Prior to 1901, the last named road constructed 87.8 miles of its main line of road. On Jan. 4, the Little Falls & Dakota railway filed in the office of the land commissioner alist of the counties where its line ran to fill out its grant. The list con- tained the land described in the complaint. Would Refund First Payment. John Lind introduced a bill in congress yesterday authorizing the secretary of the treasury to refund to all purchasers of pine on the Chippewa reservation, the 20 per cent deposited at the time of filing their sealed bids. The payments are to be refunded when the contracts for cutting the pine are completed. The money was turned over to the Chippewa Indian fund and under terms of the Morris act it can- not be returned to the lumber- men without new legislation. Bought Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and Sent it to Friends. Mr. F. W. Fletcher, a druggist in Victoria, Australia, says: “A customer of mine, was so pleased with Chamberlain’s Cough Rem- edy, which she had used for her children when suffering from colds and croup, that during a fortnight’s time she obtained at my shop, nine bottles, which she sent to her friends in differ- ent parts of the state, telling them how much good it had done and advising them to give it a SHOULD HAVE NIGHT TRAIN Bemidji Has Insufficient Railway Facilities Dur- ing Summer Months. NIGHT SERVICE WOULD AC- COMMODATE TOURISTS. Hundreds of Twin City Busi- ness Men Anxious to Visit “Northern Minnesota. P. H. McGarry of Walker, president and general manager of the Walker Hospital and Sani- tarium Association, passed through the eity last night en- route to Blackduck, where he will look after his interests in that city. Mr. McGarry has re- cently returned from Chicago and the Twin Cities, where he conferred with several of the leading railroad men regarding rates to Walker, Cass Lake, Be- mldji and other summer resorts in northern Minnesota for the season of 1905 and he states that he received assurances that a low rate to these points would go into effect at the opening of the season, *One of the things which handicaps us,” said Mr. Me- Garry, ‘‘is the fact that we are not provided with sufficient rail- way facilities during the sum- mer months. While at Minne- apolis and St. Paul the other day I met scores of prominent busi- ness men who declared that they wished to visit this section but could not afford to lose the time necessary to make the trip, Hundreds of tourists would be attracted to this region if a night service were installed on the M. & I. This would allow a passen- ger to board the train at Minne- apolison Saturday night, spend Sunday in Bemidji, and return home in time to take up his busi- ness on Monday morning, with- out the loss of a single minute’s time. This would result in much good for the entire north country. It would bring moneyed men and investors to this section and the country would receive a great amount of valuable adyertising which would aid materially in its upbuilding, and would also be an aid in stimulating the influx of tourists and pleasure seekers to this section during the summrer. We have all the natural advan- tages of lakes, rivers, fish and game, so necessary to the ideal summer resort, and all that is necessary to - induce pleasure seekers to spend their vacations here every summer is to allow them to visit this section once and see for themselves the many natural advantages which it pos- esses. A combined effort of all the people interested in the wel- faae of northern Minnesota should be made and all the in- fluence possible should be used to secure a night train over the M. & I1.” LUTHERAN 5 LADIES’ AID Officers For Ensuing Year Elected at Meeting Yes- terday Afternoon. A large attendance was pre- sent at the meeting of the Luth- eran Ladies’ Aid society of this city held yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. T. B. Olson. The reports of the secretary and treasurer were read and accept- ed and it was found that the work accomplished during the past year, largely due to the efforts of Mrs. O. M. Skinvik, the presi- dent, was very satisfactory. The amount of money in the treasury was $110.85 and is considered a very creditable balance. Re- fréshments were served after which the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President--Mrs. E. M. Peter- son. Vice President—Mrs. Olson. ‘ Treasurer—Mrs. A. R. Erick- son.

Bemidji Judge Will Speak at Meeting of Tenstrike Literary Club Tonight, Judge L. G. Pendergast of this city yesterday received an invitation from the Tenstrike Literary club to make the formal opening ‘address at the first meeting of the society in that city this evening. Mr. Pender- gast accepted the invitation and will leave on the north bound M. & I. for Tenstrike to attend the meeting. Although it has not been generally known, the Judge is one of the ablest speakers in the city. He has figured con- spicuously in several political campaigns and years ago was regarded as one of the most suc- cessful vote-getters who stumped the state in the interests of the democratic party. Do Not Suppress a Cough. ‘When you have a cough do not try to suppress it, but remove the cause. The cough is only a symptom of some disease, and the disease is what you should cure, then the cough will stop it- self. The most common cause of coughing is a cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress the cough and preparations containing chloroform, opium, etc., are used for that purpose, but they do not cure the cold. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy on the other hand does not suppress the cough, but relieves it by removing from the throat and lungs the mucus which obstructed the breathing and allaying the irritation and tickling in the throat. It also opens the secretions and effectu- ally and permanently cures the cold as well as the cough. sale by Barker’s Drug store. For *“A Study in Scarlet,” a dram- atization of A.

SSIDER 1In the fall of 1895 Icontracted that fear- ful disease, Blood Poison. It gained such headway that I was forced to resi position and seek relief at Hot ssiflnga. After spending all themeans I had I went to Memphis. In less than three weeks I was in a hospital, and after nine weeks of suffering I was discharged as cured. In less than a month every bone in my body seemed to be affected and felt as if they would break at the least exertion. Again I was compelled to resign, and I returned to the hospital for a seven weeks stay. ‘When I came out I was advised to try farming. When I first went on the farm T grevailed on the only firm who handled rugs to get me one dozen bottlesof S. S. $. At that time both of my hands were broken out with blistersand I was covered with boils and sores. In the meantimemy druggist had gotten two dozen bottles of 8.

Police Are Busy. Although Bemidji at the pres- ent time is one of the most law abiding cities in the state, the been much more strenuous for some time "past than years ago, when the festive lumberjack kept them busy night and day. Nearly every night this week trips have been made to points on the roads leading into Bemidji several miles distant from the city by the members of the force, and even the day men have been called upon to exercise unusual vigilance in watching for bad characters from other towns in this vicinity.
