The vacancy will be filled by Oscar Erwig, who WILLH STRONGTEAM Bemidji Base Ball Aggrega- tion Will Be Composed of Fast Players. SEVERAL NEW PLAYERS ADDED TO THE LIST. Finance for Maintenance of Team Will Be Furnished By Pop- ular Subscription, Bemidjiis to have a base ball team again this year, The warm weather of the past few weeks has set the fans agoing and they are already looking forward to the warm days when they may sit on the bleachers and enjoy themselves with the great Amer- ican game. Amateur teams al- ways have their troubles as well as their managers, and although each fall they all declare they will never bother with it again, the balmy spring days invariably have their effect and the base ball fever goes the round. This year Bemidji is haying doubly its share and from pres- ent indicagions a team will be ready to represent the city as soon as the weather will permit the players to assemble on the diamond. Within the past few days some of the most prominent business men of the city met to- gether and discussed plans for the season. The old problem of how to finance the team came tp the' first thing, and it was decided thot the only way to start a team to represent the city would be to circulate a popular subscription, and it is thought that with care- ful management the team, after it has been given a start, will more than pay all the expenses that arise during the season. Last year Bemidji had a team that everyone knows was a credit to the city. That was because it was fortunate enough to harbor several players who had made good record elsewhere. This year in addition to this material, it has added to its list a few men who are stars in the amatuer world of base ball. Among those who have taken up their abode here, proba bly the most important is Leigh LeGore, who has just accepted a position with the Bemidji Eleva- tor company. Mr. LeGore comes from St. Paul, where he starred on the fast Great Northern team last year, and it is well known that it was due largely to his pitching that the flag of the Com- mercial league of the capitol city floated yictoriously over the Hill road. Another player of prominence is H. G. Truesdell of Chicago, who will probably hold down the first bag. Mr. Truesdell has played on a number of fast ama- teur teams in the Windy City, and is considered a first class man. George Kinney, also of Chicago, is another player who has gained considérable nctoriety in amateur base ball circles, and his services will be valuable in vhe Bemidji team during the com- ing season. Mr. Kinney will probably play in the outfield. With these three new stars and probably some more who have not yet been detected, Bemidji should have a combination that can not be overcome by any ama teur team of the northern part of | | the state. Of the old men who will be on hand are Jghn Mogan at second base, Arthur Flatner at shortstop *Reddy” Riddell at third and McCamus and Hazen in the field. At present no likely candidate for catcher has put in an appear ance, but it is thought that some good man will turn up before the season opens. was formerly employed by Mr. Barker.

See Webster & Cooley’s new ad, ; ) WOOD RATES : Halvor Steeiierson Says the Matter Should Be Looked Into At Once. CITIZENS SHOULD APPEAL TO THE RAILROADS. Railroad and Warehouse Commis- «» sion As Last Resort To Secure Relief. Hon, Halvor Steenerson, con- gressman for the Ninth congres- sional district, who is attending the spring term of district court for Beltrami county, is heartily in sympathy with the citizens of the north country who are now making efforfs to secure a reduc- tion in the rates for transporting cordwood to western points. In talking to the Pioneer, Mr, Steen- erson outlined a plan, which in his estimation should result in bringing about the desired re- sult. Mr, Steenerson said: - “There is no doubt in my mind but that the people of the north country, especially those who live along the line of the M. & I., are suffering a great injustice at the hands of the railroad com- panies. and there should be a combined effort made-to secure a lower rate for shipping cordwood to western markeis. As I under- stand it, after the farmer cuts his wood, hauls it to the station and pays for trausporting it to the markets in Western Minne- sota and North Dakota, there is nothing left for stumpage and the farmer gets practically noth- ing for his work. “In order to remedy this, I think that a citizens’ committee, consisting of one man from Kelli her, one from Northome, another from Blackduck, avother from Tenstrike, and so on down the line should go to St. Paul and in terview the railway companies, and I think that there will be but little trouble in securing a reduc- tion in the rates. However, if the companies should refuse to grant lower rates for the trans- portation of cordwood to the west, the railroad and warehouse commission can be appealed to and it will probably set the mat- ter right, providing that it is shown by the committee that the north country residents are not getting a square deal on rates.” Dr. W. Wilcox optician and eye specialist will be in Bemidji March 28th to_ April 10th 1905, where he will be pleased to see all in need of the services of a specialist for their eyes.
