HENRIONNET MILLINERY | OPENING MADE BIG RIT Many New Styles and Shapes in! Ladies’ Headgear Were Splendidly Displayed. The second semi-annual opening come quite as popular as the Merry Window sailors. Mrs. Henrionnet is to be congrat- ulated on the evident success with which her opening was greeted as it was carried on entirely under her supervision, In Municipal Court. Mike Green and Samuel Peterson were arraigned in municipal court of the Henrionnet millinery parlors, | this morning on charges of disord- on Minnesota avenue between Third and Fourth streets, was held Fri- day and Saturday afternoons and evenings and certainly proved to be a decided success in spite of the warm weather which we have been having the last few days. The one-hundred and fifty-dollar hat which was displayed in the large window was simply irrisistable ~to the feminine eye, the exquisite ostrich plumes being especially attractive not only to the women but to the men also. The interior of Mrs. Henrionnet’s parlors were handsomely decorated, the prevailing colors being gold and brown. Antumn leaves and pumpkins were tastefully inter- mingled with pretty flowers, pro- ducing a most pleasing effect asa| whole. From the large number of La- Plaza hats which were sold during the two days, it is evident that erly conduct. They pleaded guilty and Judge Bailey fined them each $10 and costs, which they paid. Anton Peterson (no relation to | Samuel) paid a fine of $5 and costs for being drunk on the streets and was dismissed ffom custody. Mrs. Nellie Brockway of this city swore out a complaint for the arrest of her husband this morning ona charge of disorderly conduct. Brock- way was arraigned in municipal court this afternoon and the case was continued until next Friday, at the request of the attorneys. School Tablets.

IBERTSON MAKING A VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN | Candidate for Re.publican Nomination for County Attorney Is Confident He Will Be Nominated,and His Optunistic View of Situation Is Well Founded. In his candidacy for the republi- can nomination for county coroner, M. E. Ibertson of this city is espec- |ially well pleased with the outloo¥, being very confident that he will i receive-the nomination by a hand- some majority, and his optimestic view of the situation is shared by his many_friends in Bemidji. One of the adverse statements which is being made concerning Mr. Ibertson’s candidacy, is the asser- tion that he will not do as he agrees. ‘I'his is a libel on the standing of a fearless and honest man of his word, of whom this paper can truthfully say that he has lived up fully to M. E. IBERTSON. every promise and assertion which he has ever made to us; and further, we believe that if nominated and elected, he will conduct the office of coroner economically and efficiently, and with the best interests of the public always in mind. Mr. lbertson states that he will, if nominated and elected, appoint a competent deputy for the north end of Beltrami county, which would do away with the large charges for made for the work performed by a resident of Bemidji acting as coroner. And he will certainly do as he agrees. A vote for Mr. Ibertson for the republican nomination for coroner means a vote for a man who will per- form the duties of the office fear- lessly and efficiently, and he should | receive the united support of all who desire an economical administration of the office of coroner. Wes Wright Is Very Active. Wes Wright, who is seeking tbe republican nomination for sheriff of this county at the forthcoming primaries, is making a whirlwind campaign in connection with his candidacy. Mr. Wright is visiting nearly every family in the county and is {putting forth his claim for the shrievalty in very strong terms. Having been a resident of Beltrami county ever since the settler mixed with the Indians in this vicinity, Wes Wright is personally acquainted with every white men in the county. In fact, his familiar slap on the back and hearty “How are you,” is known to every taxpayer of the county. Wes has a pleasing personality that takes well wherever he goes. and he is receiving all | kinds of encouragement in his candidacy. The services rendered the county by Mr. Wright since he has been a member of the board of county com- missioners are known and recognized by the taxpayers and he will undoubtedly be fully rewarded at the forthcoming primaries by a heavy vote. Mr. Wright is confident that he will receive the republican nomina- tion and has no doubt of his election at the general election. French Putting Up Good Fight. George H. French, candidate for the republican nomination for county treasurer to succeed himself, has been making a vigorous campaign of late. Mr. French comes before the peo- ple on the strength of his record as county treasurer and points with pride to the fact that he has always conducted his office in a very cap- able and efficient manner. Mr. French is well spoken of in both his private and public life and is respected by everybody, and his candidacy is assuming proportions that indicate a strong fight between he and Mr. Bailey for the office of these millinery creations will be- pupils. ey county treasurer. milage which have heretofore been| One of the most important offices| to be filled at the coming election is that of county attorney. Beltrami county ia a young county, her resources are but par- tially developed and with the greater part of the county sparsely settled, there is a great deal of territory which must be developed. ty’s resources are limited, the ex- penses of the county must neces- sarily be high as compared with her income. The office of county attorney is one of the most important, and in making your choice for this office people should guard their own interests. As the county grows older the expenses will lighten, this being due to the fact that the county becomes settled and developed. D. H. FIS K, D. H. Fisk, who seeks the nomi- nation for county attorney, is an attorney of experience, having practiced law for the last thirty-five years. In all his dealings with the county Mr. Fisk announces that his plat- form will be a just and equitable assessment of both real and personal Owing to the fact that the coun- | property and an economical admini- stration of the county’s affairs. Coming before the people with this declaration of principle and taking into consideration his experi- ence as an attorney, and knowing his disposition to deal justly, fairly and impartially with all, we do not hesitate to recommend him for nomi- nation and election to take the place of our present efficient county attor- ney, Henry Funkley. CRANE & GOULD HAVE A FINE LINE OF BLARKETS Famous Navajo Blankets Are Handled by This Firm, at Reasonable in the history of Navajo blanket ous kinds stillin® existence. For generations past, however, the prin cipal type of the best Navgjo blanket has been the native wool blanket. This is made entirely, both warp and woof, from the hand spun wool taken from the flocks of sheep that graze throughout the forests and plains of Navajo land. From the time the wool is clipped by hand from the ket, the process is one entirely of handwork, and the wool never Jeaves the hands of its Navajo owner. The Navajo simplicity of life and ideas is seen in the making of the blanket, THe weaving is done entirely by the Navajo squaw, and is a process .that may last for months or even a year or more for the completion of a single blanket. She weaves her blanket when alone, or with perhaps her little child, and prefers to set up~her loom, which is especially made up for each blanket to be woven, under a pine tree some little distance from her “hogan” or hut. Here, surrounded entirely by nature, it is little wonder that she looks to her natural surroundings for inspiration as to design. These as a matter of fact, together with her traditions and superstitions, are the story she weaves into her blanket, for, when all is said, every Navajo blanket is, to a greater or less extent, but a story—an expression of some "tradition or belief. Itis in this way that it comes about that almost every Navajo blanket has some signifizance or symbolic .meaning.: The ordinary cross, for example, represents the four cardinel points of the compass; the swastika cross, good fortune; the diagonal figures that stand for the male and the female lightning—the latter distinguished by the blunt end; the cow; representing the h_orizon; the wind, rain, thunder, puoblo, mountain and n;eso—a]l are repre- sented by various figures. Similarly, colors have. their signifigance, such as ‘white, which represents security; . Prices. Through the Spaniards the; Navajees learned the use of} wo!; aad the different black, authority; blue, truth or sincerity; red, delight and joy. The durability of a Navajo blan- ket is phenomenal, and is probably its leading characteristic. Some of the best weaves are so fine as to be water proof. This feature of dura- bility makes them well adapted for use as floor rugs, as they will stand unlimited wear and tear. They are, | of course, the same on both sides, and therefore reversible. The following prices include the stages | best values that we offer in Navajo blankets, all wool,good heavy weaves, weaving are exemplified by the vari-| ground colors in white and gray,with designs in black and some red: 40x69 inches—9 1bs., $15.00. 50x63 inches, $15.00. 47x72 inches—8% lbs., $20. 50x61 inches—6 4 Ibs., $23.00. Clark Is Strong. M. A. Clark, the present judge of probate and who is a candi- date for the republican nomination sheep to the completion of the blami to succeed himself, is among the in- cumbents in office who are wearing a satisfied expression of countenance and are assured of a favorable out- come at the primaries tomorrow. Mr. Clark goes before the people on the strength of his record in the past as judge of probate, with the assurance , that if nominated and re-elected, he will perform the duties of the office in the future in the same manner as he has in the past. Mr. Clark is making an -active campaign and has been well re- ceived by the voters. Reward!
