SUBSORIPTION $5 PER YEAR Starting in the Right Way. “Be sure you’re right, then go ahead,” seems to be the motto adopted by the city council and the sewerage committee in deal- ing with the installation of the proposed sewer system in Be- midji, and the experiences of other cities with sewer systems has proven that this is a very wise motto to follow. The hurry- up method is not a gond one in preparing for and building any public improvement, and of all public improvements the sewer system is without a doubt the most difficult to construct. The utmost care should be exercised in the selection of competent en- gineers to make the necessary surveys and absolute certainty that a drainage system con- structed after the plans of these engineers will be provided should exist in the minds of the city council members before the con- tract for its construction is let. The sewerage committee has arranged an admirable plan to secure the views of a number of well known engineers as to the best plan for the construction of the Bemidji sewer system, March 28 has been designated as a date for the holding of a meet- ing which will be attended by the city engineer of Duluth, County Surveyor Stoner of Bemidji and a number of other engineers from the twin cities. The meeting will be held in this city after the engineers have looked the city over thoroughly,and it is probable that whatever plans prepared as a result of this meeting will be followed in the bnilding of the system. THE merchant who gives the same attention to his advertising as he does to his sweeping, dust- ing and replacing stock will never argue that advertising doesn’t pay. The man who argues that advertising doesn’t pay is the man who would neglect to attend toit. No doubt if he would leave his store for a month without changing the goods, he would conclude that it doesn’t pay to keep store. Advertising is an expense,but if it didn’t pay large business houses would never ex- pend thousands of dollars an- nually te push their trade. It 1s said that a Chicago stuck broker invested in 5,000 acres of Northern Minnesota lands, and after looking it over he com- plained that it was under wat r. We have no sympathy for a stock broker as it is his business to deal in stocks. It is only the conversion of another Chicago man that Northern Minnesota needs drainage.

Operators Hold Reserve of Nine Mil- lion Tons. New. York, March . .—Announce- ment was made during the day by the anthracite mine operators that ' they. have on hand within a radius. of less than 100 miles of New York city a reserve supply of more than 9,000,000 tons of goud marketable grades of anthracite coal. This is in addition to the supplies held by the dealers and larger cousumers. In ‘accumulating this vast store of coal an army of men has been steadily employed for months. Storage facili- ties have heen increased very largely, In some cases by the leasing of farms along the route of railroads. Many of these spots are isolated, but they are within easy transportation distance from New York. 3 The operators declare that should a strike- come there will he no incon- veniences such as attended the dis- turbances in the anthracite region in 1902. FOR BENEFIT OF CREDITORS. Property of Official of “Get-Rich-Quick” Concern Seized. Muskogee, I. T., March / ~—On peti-, tion of several creditors of the de- funct Turf investment company of $t. Louis, a “getrich-quick” concern which failed about two years ago ow- ing creditors distributed over the country close to $1,000,000, Judge Law- rence, in the United States district court here, appointed a receiver for the property of E. J. Arnold, formerly an official of the company and now in business at Broien Arrow, L. T. The petition was filed by numerous creditors from every portion of the country, most of them from Missouri, but many from California and other states. Arnold, it appears, has bheen living at Broken Arrow, a small town - in the Creek Nation, for nearly two years, had built a residence, was en- gaged in the livery business and is said to have money on deposit in the bank. CHARGESD REBATING. Insurance Company and Allied Con- cerns Are Accused. Columbus, 0., March . —Charges have been filed with the state insur- ance commissioner against the Colum- bian National Life Insurance company of Boston, the American Agency of New Jersey and the American Invest- ment Securities company of Maine, setting forth that they are violating the insurance laws of Ohio as to re- bates and improper inducements. The charges grew out of the inves- tigation of Attorney General Hadley of Missouri, which shows that the companies are virtually one, the at- torney general being of the opinion that the insurance company was formed for the purpose of furthering the interests of the investment com- pany.

New York, March . .—The first com- Plaint in a series of eight actions al- ready begun by the Mutual Life Insur- ance company against former Presi- dent Richard A. McCurdy, his son, Robert H., and the firm of Charles H. Raymond & Co., the company’s former metroypolitan agents, has been made public.

SHAW PAID FOR LAST TWINS. Aids Treasury Clerk in Wiping Out His Debts. Chicago, March 26.— . dispatch to the Record-Herald from Washington says: Secretary Shaw learned recently that a clerk in his department was in debt and made inquiries as to the cause. The clerk said it was due to his “last pair of twins,” “For goodness sake, how many pairs have you?” asked the secretary. “Oh, they come in pairs at our house; we've had three pairs now. 1 managed to keep even with the doctor till the last pair came.” The secretary reached down in his pocket. “How much did that last pair cost?"” he asked. The man estimated the figure. “Well,” declared the head of the treasury department, “I guess you're entitled to have the slate cleared. T'II" pay for the iast pair.” And he did.

I have been informed that the aggre- gate weight of vegetables and flower seeds distributed annually by the de- partment of “agriculture under frank is 690,000 pounds. The estimated number of packages is 7,300,000. Com- puting at the lowest estimate—5 cents a pound—the cost of handling this matter is $24,500.” TIMBER AND STONE ACT.
