BIG FORK COMPASS NOW - HAS FINE MODERN PLANT Editor Greeley Has Cylinder Press and Other Metropolitan Material---He Deserves Success. g A. M. Greeley, owner of the Big Fork Compass, and who is a most loyal supporter of his home town and the north country generally, came down from Big Falls thig morning and spent today in the city | Mr. Greeley was at one time part 'owner of the Pioneer, and has many ‘friends in Bemidji whom he secured while connected with this paper. Mr. Greeley went to Big Falls when there was no railroad, and he was compelled todrag his newspaper plant through the wilderness from Blackduck, the swampy condition of the country making the trip an ex- ceedingly tiresome one. He has steadfastly stuck to his post, and much of the good things which have come the way of Big . Falls, are due to Mr. Greeley’s personal efforts and those of his most ex- cellent paper. He has recently put in a new dress of type, a cylind- er press and otherwise brought his plant up-to-date, and the people of Big Falls should give him the loyal support he deserves.

Spooner Northern News: Those residents on Rainy River, living be- low the international bridge Were startled early last Thursday morning by shrieks and yells that pierced the morning airs like arrows in the sky. It was about 3 a. m. and about the darkest portion of the night, just be- tween darkness and dawn, when the stars fadeland the sun fails to appear. AS the screams grew - in intensify and their duration was longer, F. J. Reed, who lives on the Canadian side just below the bridge, got up-and looked out the window, but could see nothing. In a few minutes the first streak of dawn appeared and Mr. Reed could see the bottom of a canoe | ately _Qummoned his wife and together they rowed out ‘on’to-the stream and| there found an Indian in the water, making his last struggles to keep his nose above the 'surface. ‘He was immediately dragged out and placed in the bottom of the boat. His fran- tic motions to the water made Mr. Reed believe that the Indian had a squaw that was also unfortunate enough to be with him, and they rowed swiftly down stream along the boom, when they saw a hand clutch- ing a boom stick. ~ Grasping the hand and pulling -they unearthed. the squaw, who was all in but her ‘moc-] casin strings, and rowed them both to safety. - The Indian had imbibed too freely of the snake-bite cure, overturning. of the canoe. ‘Outside 'ot‘{the efforts -of the bath, neither gne was much the worse for their strange accident, and after receiving dry clothes from their brethern, they departed on their course, 2 County Board Met.

Mizpah, July 10.—(Special to the Pioneer.)—The citizens of Mizpah are rejoicing over the fact that the Minnesota & International railway will give us a first-class depot, one that will be sufficient to accommod- ate the large business which the road has at this point. Heretofore, the local station was a small affair and entirely inadequate, Work on the depot has been commenced and will be rushed to completion. J. H. Condoan will be the local agent for the M. & I. Much work is being done on the streets here, with a view to fixing grades and making all thoroughfares passible to rigs and pedestrians. The most important work is that of opening Itasca street. to the depot, which will add greatly to the ap- pearance of the village. Corisiderable building is proposed for Mizpah in the very near future. Among the buildings that will be erected is a village hall, a feed store and a billiard hall. Word comes from Bemidji that Mrs. A. E. Foster, who was taken suddenly ill here and removed to the Bemidji hospital, is improving nicely. E. C. Clemans Will Lecture. Professor W. B. Stewart this after- noon received a telegram from E. C. Clemens of Duluth, stating that thé latter would deliver a lecture here Friday evening, under the auspices of the summer school. Mr. Clemans is one of the best speakers in the state. He lectured here last year, and he was received with much approbation. FAVORS UNION OF TEACHERS Miss Haley May Start Fight at Los Angeles Conventlon. Los Angeles, Cal, July 10.—The mystery as to the probable position 6f Miss Margaret Haley of Chicago to- ward the proposed new constitution and bylaws of the association, as well as her attitude upon the subject of national officers, continue to be the main topics of conversation among delegates and visitors to the conven- tion of the National Educational asso- clation. Neither Miss Haley nor any of her followers in-the Chicago Fed- eration of Teachers have been seen at the convention or anywhere in the city. At the Illinols quarters in the. Hotel Alexandria none of them has registered. Nothing has been heard directly or indirectly from Miss Hale since the press dispatches from Chl- cago announced that she had left that olty for Los Angeles at the head of a large delegation of her followers pre- pared for a vigorous fight before the convention against the so-called “inner circle” of tfe assoclation and in favor of the “labor union” among teachers. It is Dbelleved, and almost feared, among the delegates that Miss Haley Is keeping her presence in the city & secret and that at the last momgqnt she will appear In the convention w}?h & sufficlent following to cause trouble. - His Wife a Politiclan. London, July 10.—A St. Petersburg dispatch to the Dally Mail says that the husband of one of the women depu- tles in the Finnish parliament tried unsuccessfully to commit suicide and the reason he gave for the attempt was that his wife was so occupied with political work that she negleoted her home.
