The big sawmill belonging to the Crookston Lumber company, and which is located on the southeast shore of Lake Bemidji, was shut down Tuesday for the season, the ice having frozen so heavily thata shut-down was imperative. The past season has been a fairly successful sawing season. There were but few accidents at the mill, all of which were of a minor nature, and no one was seriously injured. During the summer season, about harvest time, it was somewhat diffi- cult to get men to stay at work at the mill, but this condition was speedily remedied, and both of the local mills were forturate in having splendid crews of men during the entire season. The Bemidji Lumber company’s mill shut down several days ago, after a very successful season. This was the initial season for the Bemidji people, and, everything con- sidered, the company has don_e very well. An estimate of the amount of tim- ber cut by the two mills ‘cannot be given, but both were kept sawing, night and day, for the entire season, Bemidi High Plays- Saturday. .

Illit- erates, however. will be assembled in groups of ten and each group will bave the power fo gelect a single elector. As a result of this system these classes, characterized in the preamble " as “particularly accessible ‘to the incifement of: agitators,” will have been technical and throw them- selves upon the mercy of the court. Persistent fines, however, in such cases, the court apparently having no discretion in the matter, have deter- mined the railroads to resist the as- sumption of such extensive power by the commission.

Nashville, Tenn.,, Nov. 12—Al though the excitement in tids city over the shooting of formier Umited States Senator Carmack has to a cer- tain-exiget sbated the tragedy is still the solegopic of conyersation in polit- fcal circles both her% and throughout the state. Colonel Cooper, who was With his son when the latter shot Car- ‘mack, has been. remanded to jall with- out bond charged with murder, while young Cooper remains at a local hos- pital under guard, where his wounded arm is being treated. His physician says he is getting along as well as could be expected. His preliminary trial on the charge of murder will be held as soon as he is able to leave the hospital. Both Senator Carmack and the Coopers have many_friends here and throughout the state. The-friends of the Coopers:claim that the affair was merely-a street duel, in which both sides mat ‘Snd began firing; that the { Coopers hlid tried to avold a meeting with Mr. Carmack and they were on their ‘Way to the state-capitol in re- ‘Governor Patterson when the tragedy “The friends 'of .

The ac- tlon was taken after the slight put upon President Gompers and other officials of the federation had been generally dliscussed by the delegates to the convention. The invited officials decided that if | President Roosevelt wanted to do anything in the interest of labor it must be done through the organiza- tion (the American Federation of La- bor) recognized as the parent body of all unions in the country. RESCUED BY ARMED POSSE Moonshiner Who Had Been Arrested by Deputy Sheriff. Lexington, Ky., Nov. 12.—According to a report received here from Louisa, Ky., 2 posse of armed men from ‘Wayne county, W. Va,, invaded Law- rence county, Ky, took a suspected moonshiner from Kentucky officers who had him in charge and are now hiding in the West Virginia moun- tains, defying arrest by state and fed- eral authorities. Deputy United Btates Marshal Davis of West Vir- ginia was after Vinson, who fled into Lawrence county, Ky. The deputy sheriff there captured him and start- ed for Louisa, but Vinson’s friends held the officer up and rescued the prisoner, riding from Kentucky to ‘West Virginia. Rains Extinguish Fires. Charleston, W. Va, Nov. 12.—A heavy rain that passed over the Kana- wha valley has done more to extin- guish the forest fires than all other efforts and all danger is now consid- ered over. No detailed reports have been received as to the amount of damage done. PLAN TO NULLIFY ELECTION Chamberlain May Be Defeated for Oregon Senatorship. Portland, Ore., Nov. 12—What is. probably the long looked for scheme to nullify the popular nomination of Governor George E. Chamberlain, a Democrat, by a Republican electorate commanding about 25,000 majority in this state, has, it is thought, mate- rialized. Fifty-one of the legislators who will - |aarticipate in_the coming session of gan county, Ga. . The original plan to build a mam- moth warehouse at New Orleans has now broadened itself in the opinions of the delegates until it appears that a majority of them favor a large cen- tral warehouse here, with other ware- houses in Texas, Mississippi, Ala- bama, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas | and elsewhere. 1 The farmers, according to the plan, | are to store their cotton in these| warehouses, where it is to be held until the market suits their fancy. In the meantime there are to be issued warehouse certificates for the amount of cotton they have stored and the certificates are to be negotiable at| the banks. Already New Orleans bankers have given them assurances that probably $50,000,000 could be ad- | vanced in this manner here. TELLS REPUBLICAN PLANS Chairman Payne - Discusses Revision of the Tariff. ‘Washington, Nov. 12—The commit- tee on ways and means of the house of representatives continued its hear- ings on the schedule for chemicals, olls and paints. These public hear- ings, which are for the purpose of ! gathering information which will be useful in the work of revising the tariff, are part of the tariff plan pro- posed by Chairman Payne on the floor of the house last May. Mr. Payne then said: “We propose to call the whole com- | mittee together immediately after the election and invite people to come in | here who have knowledge upon the | subject to impart such information s they are able to give to the whole | committee, Republicans and Demo- | crats. | “After these hearings are closed we propose to call together the majority members of the committee, as was | done with the Wilson bill, and to ex-| cuse our Democratic friends from at-} tendance upon the sessions of the majority of the committee while we ! are framing a tariff bill. When we have framed it we will call them in again and submit our work to them and, finally, we will submit our work to the congress. It will be a revisicn of the tariff; it will be a protective tariff; it will be a maximum and min- imum tariff, I believe, putting us on an -equality with France, Germany and Russia in that respect. That is the Republican programme.” % MISCELLANEOUS. B VI U UUUT v S PUBLIC LIBRARY—Open Tues days, Thursdays and Saturdays 2:30to 6 p. m., and Saturday evening 7:30 to Y p. m. also.
