HAZEN STILL FIGHTS TO UNSEAT BAILEY His Attorney Would Have Canvassing Board Throw Out Three Precincts. WITH AGENCY, BAUDETTE AND ZIPPLE OUT, BAILEY WOULD LOSE Scheme Is to Force Bringing of Con- test Proceedings Onto Present Sheriff. New complications in the fight for sheriff were brought to light this afternoon, when A. B. Hazan, the defeat:d candidate, appeared before the canvassing board through his attorney, W. E. Rywe of Crookston, for the purpose f contasting certain re- tarns, What returns Mr. Rowe will | contest, or what his grounds of objection will be, were not ap- parent at the time of going to press this afternoon, but it is supposed that he will seek to have the votes from Baudette,! Red Lake Agency and Zipple, thrown out. These three precincts together gave Bailey a majority- of 106, and if thrown out would give the , election to Hazen, as Bailey’s majority is only 97, according to | The Busieat Street In the Worla.

Two centuries before the birth of Ubrist Ireland was known to the Greeks as Juvenca. Caesar called it Hibernia, 2.7 did also Ptolemy In his map of that lsland. It Is sald the Phoeniclans first gave Ireland the name of Hibernla, meaning thereby “utmost or last habitation,” for beyond that land westward the Phoenicians never extended thelr voyages. Toward the decline of the Roman emplre the coun- try began to be called Scotia, a name retained by the monastic writers until the eleventh century, when the name | Scotia, having passed to modern Scot- land, the anclent name of Hibernia be- : gan to be again used. To Cure Snoring. “At a banquet,” sald an editor, “I | once heard Jerome K. Jerome make a speech on snoring. I remember that it ended with these words: ‘To cure snoring, It is advised that a piece of soap be dropped Into the mouth of the snorer. The oil In the soap will lubri- cate the pharynx and other Latin parts of the throat. This remedy must be applied with caution; otherwise the snorer will arise and lubricate the floor with the person who dropped in the soap.’ ” ‘Worship a Deux. When Dean Swift was called to the the corrected tigures. | In the event of the canvassing board taking action favorable to Hazen, the initiative in the matter of bringing contest proceedings would be thrown onto Bailey. Whichever way the board de- cides, it is probable that the dis- trict court will have to decide the charges of election frauds. for the men backing Hazen seem inclined to push the contest to the limit. The returns as nearly as can be ascertained areas given in the following table, on sheriff and| governor.

Agent Chamberlain informs the Pioneer that the Great Northern railway has made a sweeping reduction in freight rates within the state of Minne- sota. A new schedule of rates has been issued that means a reduc- tion of at least twenty per cent fon merchandise between ter- minal points (St. Paul and Minne- apolis and Duluth) to Bemidji. The same schedile also.re- duces rates between local points in the state where the haul is twenty miles or more, and also where the haul is not outside the state. These rates were effective on the 15th inst. *‘Section 16” Dispute Settled. George Liydick, owner of the Lydick allotment at Cass Lake, came in from the “Lake” last night on a business mission. Mr. Lydick states that his allotment will be platted as an addition to the village of Cass Lake and that peace and harmony reigns in that community, where once strife and contention held sway over the sectional lines drawn between Section 15 and Section 16. The village origi- nally covered only the north half of Section 15, and Section 16 was a community to itself. Through 'special legislation, Mrs. Lydick has been given permission to dis- pose of her lands as she sees fit A few days ago the Lydick Town- site company was organized, with the following officers: President, M. S, Shelly, of Min- neapolis; vice president, Mrs. Nellie Lydick; secretary, J. E Tapley; ‘treasurer, George Ly- dick. It is the intention of the owners of the townsite (the Sec- tion 16 referred to) to begin the sale of lots at once, and the tract will be taken into the erganized village in-the very near future.

Dr. Blakeslee, county health officer from Bemidji, vis- ited the camps yesterday and took into custody James Ramsey and Fred Caldwell, who have well-advanced cases of smallpox. The men were put in the county pest house and Dr. Blakeslee quarantined the camps. Ramsey and Caldwell were among the army of men who came to Bemidji and then north into the logging camps about Funkley and Kelliher. They came originally from Imlay City, Michigan, where they were ex- posed to the disease, which did not develop until after they went to work in the Dudley camps. There are no other cases re- ported from the camp, but the health officer took all necessary precautions to prevent the spread of the disease, which is not of a very severe character. District Court at Walker. A term of district court for Cass county was convened at Walker yestorday, Judge Mo Clenahan officiating.

Among the heaviest in- vestors are Lawson Brothers and C.-E. Carlquist. Among the fixtures necessary was the steamer ‘“Knute Nelson.” The business on the lake has never proved a paying proposition to boat owners or to Warroad. Still the Warroaaites could not stand to see their favorite boat sold to another lumber company and bid it in. Big Millinery Sale.

His attire is coarse al- most to the point of ungainlinessw— rough brown trousers of homespun, a coat a shade or two darker and edged with a strip of black fleece; a peaked woolen cap and a cane, and you have the picture.

Their meal is brought to them at noon and again in the evening, for they often work until sunset. And so life goes on and on.

A %riek of Actors, Most people know that the memory may be easily confused by learning a passage in two or three different ways or by having once heard an Incorrect form of giving it. Working on this principle, actors are fond of putting stumbling blocks in one another’s way. A stock joke dear to the hearts of all players is the regular thing to be in- flicted upon a beginner in the first act of “Richard IIL” It is in the scene where the coffin of Henry VL. !s borne across the stage. One of the men who carry it has been raised from the posi- tion of supernumerary to- his first speaking part, which consists of a sin- gle line. Before the performance it is usual for some older actor to take him aside and impress him with the enor- mous difficulties of delivering that sen- tence correctly. The victim listens nervously. “Now, most actors,” says his tor- mentor gravely, “make this mistake the first time they play the part: In- stead of saying, as it is, ‘My lord, stand back and let the coffin pass,’ they glve it this way, ‘My lord, stand back and let the parson cough.’” And after he has heara the latter ver- sion, absurd though it is, the chances are that the poor supernumerary will glve that to the audience on the first night. The Philosopher’s Sport.

He was taken to a Kelliher physician, who exerted all the strength he possessed, but was unable to put the injured jaw back into place.
