A postoffice has been authorized in the northwest angle to be known as Sugar Point with Charles R. Gould as postmaster. Service will begin as soon as the postmaster’'s bonds are sent in and the supplies reach him. The mail will go out from Warroad, and in a few months a regular mail carrying route will be in force. Sugar Point is the most northerly postoftice in the United States outside of Alaska. The following notices are being sent out by Lester Bartlett, register of the Cass Lake land office: “Cer- tain tracts included in lists of lands recently filed by the Superintendent of Logging are included in Indian Allotments and State Swamp selec- tions, and are not, therefore, subject to settlement. Lists of the tracts thus otherwise appropriated were at- tached to the original lists of lands reported clear of timber and we sup- pose that the mafier was clearly un- derstood. Cars should be taken, however, by all settlers to determine that the lands they seek to claim | have been opened to settlement and | are not claimed by the State or by | any Indian."” What is said to be the largest land sale ever held in any one county-in the state by state officials was held at Roseau Monday when 16,800 acres of Northern Minnesota lands in Roseau county were disposed of at| an average price of §7 per acre. Sev-| eral years ago the lands could not | have been sold for a third of the amount received Monday, but the ad- vent of drainage canals and state aid for the reclamation of the bigi swamps in this territory has opened | the eyes of settlers throughout the Northwest. Bidders were present| from six states, Minnesota, Towa, | Wisconsin, 1llinois and North and Sonth Dakota being represented. Over 250 persons attended the sale. | NORTHERN. C. 0.

INFORMATION IS SOUGHT Senate Asks if Standard Oil Magnates Are to Be Punished. Washington, May 24.—Information as:to what steps had been taken for the criminal prosecution of the officers of the Standard Oil company under the recent decision of the supreme court was demanded of the attorney general by the senate, which adopted, without debate, a resolution of inquiry offered by Senator Pomerene. The resolution names specifically John D. Rockefeller, William Rockefeller, Hen- ry M. Flagler, John D. Archbold, Oli- ver H. Payne and Charles M. Pratt. SEES VICTORY FOR RECIPROCITY President Believes Pact Will Pass Senate in One Form or Other. Washington, May 24.—Senators have begun to feel the effects of the heat wave and there has been discus- sion for two days as to when it is likely the Canadian reciprocity agree- ment can be reported from the senate committee on finance. No one can an- swer ‘the’ question.” Senator Perrose, chairman of the committee, will not even guess at the date. Every day re- quests for hearings are coming to the committee. Not all are opposed to ratification of the treaty. As the committee has adopted the plan of hearing various interests it seems inclined to gramt time to all parties asking it. Senator La Follette, who is opposed to the agreement, told friends recently that the hearings “could be protracted.” Opponents of the agreement intend, evidently, to hold it from the senate as long as possible, that hostility to it may be stirred to such a pitch throughout the country that the presi- dent may be induced to abandonm it or the senate defeat it. Neither of these contingencles now seem likely. The president is work- ing steadily on opposing senators. The opposition to it is strong enough, how- ever, to delay action both in-commit- tee and on the floor of the senate for several weeks. It is conceded the bill will be reported from the senate com- dation and to this extent its passage throughout the senate will be ham- pered. When it does come to a vote in the senate it is believed it will pass in one form or another. DODGES PRESIDENTIAL BOOM Senator Kern of Indiana Says He ls Not a Candidate.
