THE BEMIDJI DAILY PION VOLUME 5. NUMBER 110. BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 29, 1907. MINNESOTA A FORTY CENTS PER MONTH HUNTING SEASON OPENS FOR SMALL GAME, SUNDAY All Hunters Should Secure Licenses from the County Auditor, as the Provisions of the Game Law Will Be Regidly Enforced. Sunday next (September 1) will inaugurate the open season for the hunting and killing of Turtle dove, snipe, prairie chicken, pinnated, white-breasted or sharp-tailed grouse, woodcock, upland plover and golden plover, and already many nimrods of the city are contemplating trips to outside points for the purpose of enjoying a hunt for chickens and grouse. Wild duck, goose and all other aquatic fowl may also be killed Sep- tember 1st. The season for shooting partridges does net open until Octeber 1st. Hunters should take heed that they have a license to hunt small game in an adjoining county. The game and fish law is very strict relative to this matter—a hunter is subject to a heavy fine for every bird shot outside of his home county, unless he has procured a license therefor. In order to better enforce the law, the last legislature passed an amend- ment to the law, whereby the state now gives a reward of $10 for information that will lead to the conviction of anyone violating this law. The local game warden desires hunters in this vicinity to strictly understand that he intends to rigidly enforce the law relative to hunting small game, and those residing here who do not have licenses, and are caught hunting in Clearwater, Hub- bard or Cass counties will be prose- cuted to the fullest extent of the law. County Auditor Wilmann has veceived the license tags from the game and fish commission, and up to 2 o’clock’this afternoon but seven persons had taken -licenses—cer- tainly a small proportion of those who will undoubtedly hunt small game beginning next Sunday. However, a “Word to the wise” is probably all that is necessary for negligent sportsmen. Go get a license! The law relative to licensing hunt- ers remains the same in effect as it was previous to the recent session of the legislaiure, though somewhat different in wording. No license is required for a hunter to shoot small game in the county in which he resides but if he desires to hunt outside his own county he must pro- cure a license, costing $1.00, from his county auditor. The license permits a hunter to shoot all kinds of game, in season, and confers shipping privileges. Only one license can be issued to any one person and is not transfer- able. It is also the duty of every hunter to exhibit his license to any person, on request. The license is of the coupon vari- ety and has tags attached to be used in shipment of game by the hunter to his place of residence. Pocket folders showing open and closed seasons for all game and giving much valuable information may be had by applying to the State Game and Fish Commission, | St. Panl. BELIEVES THE FAIR WILL PROVE TO BE BI6 WINNER William Lennon of Kelliher Says Much Interest Is Being Taken in Fair. the Kelliher, and who is one of the best of the many intensely loyal sup- porters of the north country tributary to Bemidji, came down from Kelliher this morning and spent today in the city. Mr. Lennon is one of the members of the arrangements committee for the forthcoming fair, which will be held in Bemidji Sept. 26-27-28, and he is enthusiastic over the prospects for a large attendance and a fine exhibit of the agricultural products and livestock and dairying interests William Lennon, mayor of of Beltrami and adjoining counties. Mr. Lennon has consented to act’ as one of the judges of the horse races that will be held during the fair, which acceptance fills the necessary positions for three judges, the other two being C. A. Hitchcock of Crookston and A. O’Kelliher of Blackduck, which will give the asso- ciation a corps of judges without a peer in the north half of the state. Key of Engine Lost. The M. & I. south-bound passen- ger train, due to arrive in Bemidji at 7:50, was forty minutes “to the bad” this morning. The delay was caused by a key dropping from a wheel on the engine, 2 mile south of Funkley. The train was stopped, without accident, and a search was made for the lost key. The key was not found, but another was inserted and the train proceeded southward, arriving here at 8:30. Need attention. It will cost you less now than after awhile. It won’t cost you anything to have them exam- ined anyway. Dr. G.M. Palmer Formerly of Minneapolis Phone 124 Office~=Suite o, Miles Bik #éééi&éi&&iii?éé&i ’é‘éi‘é’éifi% 2 | !

Carlson has “bats in his belfry,” and imagines that he is one of the rulers of old, and .that his commands must be obeyed to the letter. Editor Greeley, of the Big Forks Compass, “Boosts” the Fair Brother Greeley, in his Big Forks Compass, “boosts” the Beltrami County . fair as follows: “The Bemidji county falr this year promim fo be the biggest event planned for this neck of the timber belt.’ Nearly $3,000 will be distributed in premiums and purses, which ought to coax the modest pumpkin and fiery race horse from their most remote lairs.” The Compass man will will be tendered the courtesies of the fair management, along with the other good fellows among the newspaper boys; and the fair will be all that he claims for it. Carl,son’ has called at several farm housés in the western part of the couqty; during the past week and his strange actions and belliger- ent attitudé has caused a reign of terror that community. <He would call at a house and demand something to eat or drink, as the notion took him, and if his orders were not instantly complied with, he would draw .a tevolver from his pocket and e;force his commands at the point of the gun. . The county officials were notified in concerning Carlson’s actions and HAS “BATS IN HIS BELFRY;” HAS BEEN RUNNING AMUCK the sheriff and a party of deputies had been on his trail for the past three days, with the result that he was captured early this morning. Asked as to where he resided, Carlson stated that he did not know where he lived or where he ‘came from; that he felt that there was something wrong with his head, and that he desired to be taken care of until he fully recovered his mental faculties. Carlson will be examined today by the judge of probate and no doubt will be taken to Fergus Falls for his ailments. e Firemen Will Give Dance. There was a very fair attendance of firemen at the regular monthly meeting of the department, which was held at the fire rooms in the city hall 1ast evening. Reports of the condition of the department will probably show .that Bemidji firemen have a splendid organization and that, financially, the boys are in good shape. It was decided at the meeting held last evening to give a dance Monday (Labor Day) evening, at the city hall, the proceeds to'be for the benefit of the department: VILLAGE OF LITTLEFORK PUSHING TO THE FRONT —_— A. A. White, Owner of the Townsite, Tells of Improvements Being Made in New Town. — A. A. White of St. Paul, who owns in the different towns throughout the northwestern states, and is interested in several townsites in the country tributary to Bemidji, passed through the city this morning on his way from Little- fork to St. Paul. ¢ Mr. White owns the townsite of Littiefork and says that the strides this place is making will result in one of the leading towns on the M. & I extension, north of Big Falls. Mr. White says: “Littlefork is pushing rapidly to the front. The large new iron com- bination bridge which the village is building over the river at that place has been completed and is a credit to any community. The bridge has a 125-foot span and is a large struc- ture, Tt fills a long felt want, as a means of crossing the river to-.and from the railroad tracks. *“As the head of the townsite com- Pany, I have donated an entire block of land within the limits of the townsite, to be used for school pur- poses, and the county commissioners of Koochiching county will erect a fine school building on the donated site. This school building will cost $6,000, and will be one of the finest buildings of the kind in the northern country. A new wagon road which the village is building from the depot to the main part of town has been practically completed. The village authorities will place several car- loads of gravel on this road which will make " a splendid thoroughfare for the traveling public. “Large additions are being made to the Shalgren and La Chapelle hotels, which when completed will be double their present size, and many townsites capable of caring for a large transient trade.” MILL EMPLOYES STRIKE; DIFFERENGES SETTLED IWnrkmen Employed in Yards of Neils Lumber Co., at Cass Lake, Walked Out. Cass Lake, Aug. 29.—(Special to the Pioneer.)—The strike which is exlend.in“g among the labor- ing classes all over the country, has stffick Cass Eake, as was shown yesterday afternoon, when the em- ployes in the Neil’s Lumber Com- pany yards struck for raise in wages. For several days there have heen__ mutterings of discontent at the Neil’s mill,and the symptons reached an acute stage at 3.30 p. m. yes- terday, when the entire force em- ployed in the lumber yard quit and marched in a body to the office of the company. A heated controversy -ensued, in which the workmen demanded more wages and threatened,if the demand was not granted, to quit work. The fever i question was argued, pro and. con, when J. F. B. Neil, president of the lumber company, agreed on a small raise in salary for the men. The men have been receiving $2 per day, but wanted $2.50. Mr. Neil agreed to give them $2.25, if they would return to work. The laborers held a short consul- tation among themselves and finally agreed to accept the proffered raise of 25 cents per day, and returned to their work, The rumors of large wages being paid- in the Dakota harvest fields was responsible for the strike,which thréatened serious proportions at one time, with the possible shut down of work in the yard. WILL HAVE TO MOVE TO BEMIDJI TO SAW TIMBER — Crookston-and Grand Forks Mills Have Several Kinds of Trouble Over West. The Grand Forks Lumber Com- pany will not run their big plant nights this year after today. This was decided upon by the officials late last week after a careful consid- eration of all sides of the issue. Logs are scarce and so are men. The company has had much difficulty the entire season keeping enough logs in the river to supply the machines:and the finale was' reached when the last drive cannot appear but will have tobe brought over by rail. An offi- cial of the _company stated today that they expected to run. the day shift until November, but thought that they would have difficulty in keeping supplied with logs.—Crooks- ton Jonrnal, The above article is along the line of suggestions which have been made of late, by men of reliability, that the Crookston sawmill would eventually be moved to Bemidji . and used here to saw timber for the Crookston Lumber company. The item of rates on hauling logs by rail is one that is bothering all of the lumber companies, and will have much to do with the future actions concerning “the- locations of sawmills in the north country.
