=) 'EMIGRATION |NoT A wiui‘ TO CANADA Many Settlers Removing From Beltrami County to Take Land in Dominion. MAJORITY LURED BY FALSE HOPES OF RICHES. Immigration Agencies Doing Much to Turn Tide Away From This Section. Although few citizens of this section are willing to admit it, there are many settlers of Bel- trami county removing to Canada to take up claims in the Dominion and of late the emigration from the country north of Bemidji has been quite noticeable. One of the most alarming features of the removal of settlers to Canada is that most of them are of a class that developes a country, a large percentage having settled in northern Minnesota years ago, lived upon their homesteads for five years and proved up, and in the meanwhile doing much to im- prove their land. Lured by false promises of riches by the Canadian immigra- tion agencies, who spend millions of dollars every year endeavor- ing to get settlers into the coun try, they dispose of their lands, pack up their goods and depart, taking with them the accrued profits of their five years’ resi- dence and leaving the land in the hands of speculators and timber owners who, perhaps, will hold it for several years before_ plac- ing it upon the market at a price that can be paid by those who wish to settle in the country with a view of engaging in agriculture. There can be no good reason for any settler to remove from Beltrami county after he has made final proof upon his land. He has passed all the hardships and privations incident to living up to the homestead law in hold- ing down aclaim, and, witha clear title to the homestead and very bright prospects for future success due to the advantages of plenty of fuel, good roads, abun- dance of rain, fine soll and excel- "lent market facilities, he should rather be satisfied to make a good free and substantial living in Bel- trami county than t. attempt to carve out a home in the unknown country to the north. New Clothing Store. L. Goldberg of Duluth has opened up his new clothing store in the French building on Bel- trami avenue. Mr. Goldberg will take personal charge of the store and will conduct a first class es- tablishment. He has installed an excellent stock and will no doubt make a success of the ven- trre. Contractor Kraatz went to Wil- ton last night to make arrange- ments for purchasing a large amount of rock that will be used in constructing the basement of the Brinkman hotel. TRUTH INIT E. E. Mel)onald Denies That|State Auditor Annonnces He is a Candidate for County Commissioner. There is a story in circulation to the effect that f. K. McDonald who assisted the prosecution during the Beltrami County in- vestigation, as well as beforeand after, desires to succeed Wes Wright as county commissioner in case the investigation termi nates in the latter gentlemen’s removal. When all this has hap- peted Henry Funkley will be county attorney. - Mr. McDonald says that the rumor is absurd, ridiculous, pre- posterous. Meanwhile most people confi dently believe that Mr. McDon- ald aspires to be the successor of County Attorney Loud. ROLLED LOG WITH BROTHER Playful Pastime Caused Death of Boy Drowned in the Turtle River. Additional details of the death of George Fogelquist, the 17 year that Thousands of Acres Will Be Offered. State Auditor S. G. Iverson has announced that he will sell from 50,000 to 100,000 acres of state lands in the northern part of the state this fall. The max- imum acreage which' the state may sell under the law each year is 100,000, and the state auditor intimates that he may go the limit. The exact dates and places of the sales have not been fixed, but it is understood that they will take place in St. Louis, Aitkin, Carlton, Beltrami, Crow Wing, Hubbard and possibly Polk and Wadena counties. The sales will probably be held in September or October. Mr. Iverson says that much of the land that will be put on sale is located . in settled districts, within a few miles of railroads, schoolhouses and churches. Palmer Quits, the Bugle. ¢“Dad’” Palmer, the veteran newspaper man who has been employed on the Funkley Bugle for some time past, has severed his connection with that publi- cation and left fzr parts unknown. 1f a search were made for “Dad” old boy who was drowned in the Turtle River Monday afternoon, show that he was rolling a log with his brother when the ac- cident occured. Both the boys were excellent drivers and could stand upon a log for hours ata time. They often engaged in the pastime, and on the afternoon that Fogelquist met his death there were eight or ten men standing on the bank of the river. watching the performance, When young Fogelquist was rolled into the water it was expected that he would rise readily to the sur- face and get back upon the log, but after going down the first time he did not come up again until his dead body was taken from the water. BRAINERD BANK CLOSES DOORS N. P. Bank at Brainerd Closed Yesterday for Ex- amination by Examiner. The N. P. Bank at Brainerd closed its doors yesterday to al- low an examination into its affairs by a deputy public examiner. Rumors of its failure were circu- lated throughout the city last night, but as to the truth of these rumors nothing can be said, A prominent banker of Bemidji when asked about the matter ~ said: ‘The fact that |} the bank was closed yesterday may not signify thatit has failed. It is sometimes necessary while examining a bank to close up be- cause the transacting of busi. ness interferes with the work of the examiner.” M Oxford ever known, Shoes. your fit while the BEST ing Feet.
