i IT WASA NEAR THING Woodchuck County Division Bill Cleverly Manipulated Last Week. PERISHED IN COMMITTEE BY SWEDBACK’S OPPOSITION. Work ofRecommending Enumera- tors for Beltrami County is Now Being Undertaken. Senator Swedback, who has returned from St. Paul with the close of the legislative session of 1905, informs the Pioneer that the bill to detach the northern end of the conuty for the benefit of the village of Warroad came very near to passage. The bill provided that territory could be detached from any county containing more than 80 towns when the county seat was more than 70 miles from the ter- ritory to be detached. Immedi- ate action could be secured from the governor upon petition of a majority of thelegal voters in the territory affected. Beltrami is the only county in the state which could possibility be affect- ed by the law, The bill was fathered by the Minneapolis delegation and it was passed in the house when nobody was looking. [t perished in the senate committee on towns and counties, however, under Senator Swedback’s opposition, the senator being a member of that committee. The work of recommending census enumerators will fall largely to Senator Swedback and the senator states that many applications have already been received. ICE GOES OUT OF RAINY RIVER Navigation Opens On the Lit- Ite Fork—Daily Mail Service. Although Rainy River has been opened nearly to the town of! Baudette for some time, naviga- tion did not open until Tuesday, when the Itasca left on her first trip for down-river points. The ice in the Little Fork river went out on Sunday and the steamer Se-a-mo left Tuesday for the vil- lage of Little Fork and other points in the valley. Before the ice went out the water roseto a point of six feet higher than it was at any time last year, and the warehouse of the Northern Minnesota Navigation company at Little Fork was destroyed by ice. The Se-a-mo will connect with the Itasca at the month of the Little Fork, so that home- steaders in the valley will have a daily service this seasqn. It is not expected that Rainy Lake will be free of ice until the first of May and it will probably be the 10th before navigation opens on the lake. Cheated Death. Kidney trouble often ends fatally, but by choosing the right medicine, E. H. Wolfe, of Bear Grove, Iowa, cheated death. He says: “Two years agoI had kid- ney trouble, which caused me great pain, suffering and anxiety, but I took Electric Bitters, which effected a complete cure. I have also found them of great benefit . in general -debility and nerve trouble, and keep them constant- ly on hand, since, as I find they have no equal.” All druggists guarantees them at 50c. ' LOST FATHER LOCATED C. H.Miles Hears From Rela- tive Whom He Has Not Seen for 30 Years. LEAVES AT ONCE FOR ACKER- MAN, MISSISSIPPI. Search for Father Extending Over Many Years Finally Successful. < A message received yesterday afternocon by C. H. Miles from his father, Pettis Miles, who is now at Ackerman, Mississippi,is the result of an extended search conducted by Mr. Miles for his parents, who he has not seen since he left home 30 years ago at the age of nine. Mr. Miles immediately prepared for a journey to Mississippi and left ior Ackerman last night on the wmidnight train. The meeting of father and son after a separation of a score and ten years will probably be one of the most happy reunions that ever oceurred. Mr. Miles’ par- ents were poor and lived in an eastern town. At the age of nine years Mr.Miles lefthomé&to go out into the world and shift for him- self. He went to Chicago, where he spent several years as a news boy and bootblack, afterwards engaging in business when he was still in his ’teens. He was very successful and at the age of 21 he sold out his interests in the Windy City for $113,000.and left for the west. He located at Galveston, Texas, where he conducted a saloon business for several years but owing to adverse conditions Mr. Miles was forced to sell out at a sacrifice. He afterwards tried several other western cities and towns,but hard times during the panic of 1890 to 1895 left him with but a small portion of his fortune. He traveled extensively, how- ever, and finally came to Bemidji where he first bought the Great Northern saloon and afterwards erected the brick block at the coroner of Beltrami avenue and Third street. His history from that time on is well known to.the people of the city. Mr, Miles expects to remain at Ackerman about three weeks and will probably bring his father with him on his return to Be midji.

No. The Chiropractic and the Osteopath both aim to put in place that which is out of place, to right that which is wrong; but the Path- ology Diagnosis, Progn: and Movements are entirely different.

The Chiropractic is ten times more direct " in the adjustments and the vesults getting health ten times more thor- " ough in one tenth of the time than an Osteopath would. | Hi il HE E.,.
