Injunction Restraini ing on the Board McClenahan. Judge McClenahan today re- fused the injunction asked by Wes. Wright restraining I. B. Olson from sitting on the board of county commissioners of Bel- trami county, and the order and memorandum .will be filed Mon- day. The order sustains the pro- ceedings under which Commis- sioners Wright and Sibley were removed and the subsequent hearing before Gov. Johnson, which resulted in his finding that five of the six charges upon which it was sought to remove the two commissioners were true. The injunction was asked by Chester McKusick, Wright’s at- torney, on June 15, and the mat- ter was argued at Grand Rapids ng Him ulr“rrom Act- Refused by Judge before Judge McClenahan, who took the matter under advise- ment until today. Mr, Wright claimed that the proceedings under which he was removed were void inasmuch as the state failed to prove atthe |investigation and the hearing be- fore the governor that he had been guilty of any wrongdoing while a member of the board. It is understood that there is no appeal possible from the de- cision of the district court, and hereafter the board of county commissioners will be constitut- ed as follows: First district, I. B. Olson; second district, George Gunderson; third district, Chas. {E. Saxerud; fourth district, Joseph H. Wagner; fifth district, !A. W. Danaher.

White., Despite the inclemency of the weather last evening there was a considerable attendance of repre- sentatiye business men at the meeting of the Business Men’s club in Masonic hall. The matter of the Fourth of July celebration was first taken up and a report of the committee on subscriptions showed that the business men of the city had subscribed liberally but that a number who would be greatly benefitted by the celebration has as yet given nothing.

The Plate that wears Sterling Silver, factory and creditable. A representative of a tent show now touring northern Minnesota was present. The institution is alarge one carrying 25 people and showing in a tent 80x110 and giving a highly desirable enter- tainment, consisting of vaude- ville, slack wire walking, sensa- tional mind reading with public street demonstrations, ete. A proposition was made to the club for the appearance of the show here on the Fourth, including the use of the company’s ten piece band, which will probably be ac cepted today. Reports from roints along the Sauk Centre line were made to the effect that a big crowd can he secured from this direction if a special train is put on and Gra- ham M. Torrance and R. W. Hitchcock were appointed a com- mittee to arrange for such a train if possible, The Bible Conference. Rev. S. E. P. White, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, was present and addressed the club upon the subject of the Bible Conference to be held here next month, Mr, K White’s remarks, which were vigorously appland- ed, were confined to a brief analysis of the purposes of the Conference, its possibilities to Bemidji, and the suitability of this city as a location for a perma- ment institution along the lines of the Chautauqua idea. He de- clared that the climatic condi- tions prevailing here are exactly such as are desired fora sum- mer Chautauqua, that Bemidji’s location upon a beauntiful lake amid the pines with abundance of fishing and excellent facilities for bathing constitute this city. an unrivaled location for the es- tablishment of a summer outing school unrivaled in the United States. What is wanted—is a place where people may come and spend weeks and months during the summer. Winona Lake, Indiana had a very humble beginning scarcely ten years ago but thousands of people from the east now make it their annual summer rendezvous, and hun- dreds of thousands of dollars are thus brought into the town. Mr. White explained that the germinating idea of the Confer- ence to be held this summer was the permanent esstablishing of a great Chautanqua at Bemidji, but that it was necessary for some organization to take upon itself the responsibility and the ex- d the Plate that engraves like We have a fine assortment in - PLATE W ARE—also Hollow Ware—in “Rockford”, and many other makes.

BE MiDJI ENROUTE HOME TODAY People of Ifia_ékdnck Entertained Royally and Visitors Were Well Satisfied. . The second annnal tournament of the Northern Minnesota Fire- men’s Tournament association, which has been held at Black duck for the past four days, was concluded in that ci y yesterday and the ruonning teams from Hallock, Argyle, Red Lake Falls, Warren, Cass Lake and Kennedy passed through the city enroute home this afternoon. In spite of the unfavorable weather that prevailed nearly all through the tournament, the meeting was highly successful and those in attendance were well satisfied. The people of Black- duck had prepared for the oc casion for a year and when the visitors arri ved they were treat ed royally. The me mbers of : the Bemidj running team speak very highly of the treatment accorded them by Landlord Thompson of the Palace hotel, which was made the headquarters of the team, and state that during their stay in Blackduck were shown every courtesy. They feel, however, that they were entirely justified in quitting the tournament after they had been declared out of a race in which they had apparently won first money without a protest having been made againstaward ing the money by any of the other teams present. 1t is cer tain that the Bemidji team was by fur the fastest aggregation that visited the tournment, and if they had remained at the meet, ing yesterday would probably have taken every race pulled off. Band Practice Tonight. The Bemidji band will hold a practice at the city hall tonight and members of the mew organ- ization are asked to be present. The bend is now assuming tang- ible proportions, and it is ex- pected that within a week a director will have been secured to take charge of and instruct the members of the band, who seem anxious to make the organization a success.

REPORT OF PROSPECTORS SHOWS MUCH WEALTH. Valuable Mineral Diseoveries in the Northern Part of the State. State officials are wondering whether the entire porihern part of the state contains a continuous bed of iron ore. Every day bringsto State Auditor S. G. Iverson fresh reports of the dis covery of new ore fields, and the opinion is growing that the state, which owns millions of acres in | this section of Minnesota, has an immense fortune. Mr. Iverson yesterday received | reports of the discovery of two new ore ficlds. Oue of these is located about thirty miles north ofBrainerd in Crow Wing county. | This is about fifty miles from the so-called Deerwood district,which | was discoyered siveral weeks “The state auditor has no de- finiteinformation regarding the amount of ore in the district, but from the number of pros- pecting mineral leases which are; taken out daily, he believes that ! it will develop into a pmspemusg mining section. Those- who are| taking out leases are guarding| their movements with close secrecy. Itissaid thatva high grade of ore has been found crop- ping from the surface and -that these finds are the basis for the boom. There were nine leases taken out yesterday in this sec- tion, the property being located in township 138, range 37, and township 138,range 28, - Another new district, in which it is reported valvable finds of ore have been made, is located just east of the Lieech Lake Indian reservation in Cass couunty. This property is located in township 143, range 25. These leases were taken out'yesterday by David T. Adams of Duluth. It is said that ago.
