He and Mrs. Heinzleman have done splendid work, over in the Park, and their friends are greatly pleased. Soo Bridge Building Progressing. Felix Barbeau'and D. L. Hickcox, forming the bridge-building firm of Barbeau & Hickcox, are having some slight difficulty in going ahead with the work of building the Soo bridges with the dispatch which they would like because of the non- arrival of piling and bridge material which is necessary for the work. They will move the steam npile driver from Solway northward to the Nelson dam, on the Clearwater river, where they will construct a bridge for the Soo. They will also bave a steam pile driver at Cass Lake before the end of the present week;andwork at these two bridges will be’ pushed with all possible dispatch. They estimate that it would take at, least six weeks to construct the bridge at Cass Lake, will possibly a longer time to build the bridge at the Nelson dam. The Work of constructing the bridge at Four-Legged lake, in Clearwater county, will be com- menced the first of next week, and two steam pile drivers will be used there. The work of constructing the bridge at Lost river is well under way and will be completed in a few days. The firm is building the Soo bridge on Willow river, near Aitkin, which is one of the largest bridges on the road, extending 1085 feet This bridge will be completed in a few days. The work of constructing the bridges at Bemidji will not be com- menced for some time. BLACKDUCK Blackduck, February 20.—(Special cor- respondence of the Pioneer.)

Chicago, Feb. 23—A special dii- patch to a local paper from Washingf- ton says: “With practical assurance given the president that four of his administrii- tion measures are to be passed by congréss a peculiar situation has de- veloped, full of danger to the ultimate success of these laws. “It is asserted on excellent author- ity that congress is prepared to pass a postal savings bank bill which will not, be constitutional, in the hope thzit it will be knocked out at an early date by the supreme court. Such a deteir- mination rests not with.the men wha have, up to-this time, been favorable ‘to postal savings legislation, but’ with the new supporters who have been swung into line by demands of the president that such a law be passed. “This latter element includes, first of all, Senator Aldrich and those asso- ciates of his in the senate who are known to be thoroughly opposed to postal savings bank systems as a part of the country’s financial- structure. Aldrich has given the president assur- ances that the postal savings bank bill will be passed and it is known now that this legislation will be en- acted at no distant date. Insurgents May Oppose Bill. “It may be one of the anomalies of the situation, however, that Western senators, including the strongest of insurgents, will be compelled in the end to vote against the bill which the Aldrich and Cannon forces are deter- mined to pass. . - “It is.difficult to appreciate the full significance of the legislative situation into which the president’s measures have drifted. From .a programme more ambitious than any advocate of progressive legislation dared to hope could be carried out the president has concentrated upon a quartette of bills ‘which he hopes to have: enacted. “Opponents of those so called Roose- velt policiés, to which Mr. Taft has brought vigorous support, have been swept off their feet by the demand I Study club, was.received by a highly ajp- from the nation that some effective action has been taken, They have dillydallied along, obstructing and ob- jecting, in the hope that they would have to move only a little in the end. But they have found the country sus- picious of delay and wholly devoid of any disposition to forget the history. of the tariff bill and the tariff session.” DEPARTMENT STORE. BURNS Fire Imperils Much Other Property at Milwaukee. Milwaukee, Feb. 23.—Fire which started with two explosions destroyed the structure on West Water street occupied by the Milwaukee. depart- ment store.

OFFER MAY SETTLE TROUBLE AT BUTTE Engineers Agree to Enter Info Contract With Mine Owners, Butte, Mont., Feb. 23—President ‘Walter Shay of the International En- gineers’ union has addressed a com- munication to John .

This is the substance of new tariffs that have been filed with the inter- state commerce commission by the railroads reaching the territory affect- ed, with the exception of the Chicago Great Western, the Chicago and Alton and the Wabash. These latter have made no advances, but may come into line later, it is said. The new tariffs provide that on meat and meat prod- ucts there will be an increase of 3 to 3% cents per hundred to points west of the Illinois-Indiana line and an in- crease of 5 cents per hundred to points east of that line. .
