That, as relator is informed and believes, and so alleges the fact to be, the said respondent herein has prepared, and is about to publish, a notice to the holders of registered warrants and orders issued in prior years, to present same for- payment, and proposes to use and absorb the funds now in his hands levied and collected for the payment of current funds of the year 1909, in paying of and liqui- dating warrants and orders of prior years, and that if said respondent proceeds so to do, and uses and emplys the said funds now in his hands for that purpose, it will defer the collection and payment of said order now held by this relator and other outstanding warrants issued for current expenses during the year 1909, for a long time, to-wit, for several years, and relator has no plain, speedy, and adequate remedy in the ordinary course of the law.

The Ploneer has received many compliments, the sincerity of which we have noreason to. doubt, on the excellence of the recent souvenir magazine of Beltrami County and Bemidji, which we recently printed and issued. These complimentary expressions are greatly appreciated, and we are pleased that our efforts were the re- sult of giving general satisfaction. In a letter to the Pioneer, Con- gressman Steenerson says of the edition: “Washington, March 22, 1909. “I am in receipt of the special edition of the Pioneer and to my mind a nicer boom of any city or surrounding country has never been written. I wish ‘to compliment you, and your staff, upon the excellent work done.” Under the caption of “A Fine Edition,” the Tenstrike Tribune says of the Pioneer’s souvenir edition: “A copy of the special edition just issued by the Bemidji Daily Pioneer reached us this week, and is the finest we have seen. The edition is neatly gotten up in magazine form and contains 108 pages of the very best material, devoted to the financial, industrial, agricultural and landed interestes of Beltrami and surround- ing counties, embellished with excel- lent half-tone cuts of business men, business buildings, public buildings, churches, and other interesting lake, timber, county and Indian scenes. Itis a splendid advertisement for Bemidji and Beltrami county and shows up properly its great advant- ages. “The Pioneer management is to be congratulated upon the success of s‘ch a great undertaking.” As this “boost edition” is a good thing to send away as showing the enterprise of Bemidji, the Pioneer has reserved a limited number of copies which will be sold at the office. As there was a large expense connected with issuing the magazine it has been found necessary to place the price at 50 cents per copy. Card of Thanks. We wish to return our heartfelt thanks to the many generous friend who stood by us with such unweary- ing kindness during the time our beloved child Roy was called upon to suffer before entering upon “‘the rest prepared for the children of God,” and crossing to the “beautiful home over there.” Seldom have many in need of sympathy and the most devoted friends received so full a measure of the best fruits of the human heart as was shown us during his last sick- ness and death. We wish to expess our heartfelt thanks to the individuals sending us flowers and kind words of sympathy, also to the members of the Royal Neighbor, Rebehah, Eastern Star and Masonic lodges for the sincere depth of the kindness and sympathy shown us in our bereavement. Words cannot express our appre- ciation of these friends and their kind acts. Though the waves of sorrow come over them we can but hope that friends as true may gather around every ome of them should sorrow invade their home. —Mr. and Mrs. O. E. Jackson.
