After requests extending over a period of several years, residents across the Great Northern tracks are to have a sidewalk constructed on First street to run West to Missis- sippi avenue if efforts started by for- mer Senator Swedback are success- ful, as it is believed they will be. The fact that the Northern Na- tional Bank is owned and controlled by well known local business men is one of many reasons you should have an account there. R. H. Harrison and George Schiller of Ranier paid fines of $22.50 each for having under-sized white-fish in their possession. Deputy Warden E. C. Cooke of International Falls made the arrests. Nick Davies of Inter- national Falls paid a fine of $12.50 for one undersized pike. Money to Loan, V. L. Ellis. Father A.

Last week Harry Reynolds went to Minneapolis where he spread the glad tidings and at the same time Ray Cook was in Winnipeg of- fering documentary proof that Be- midji can’t be beat for a place to spend the summer vacation. Both are expected home tonight. Postcards of the noted Indian chiefs of Northern Minnesota. Geo. T. Baker & Co., 116 3rd St. Near the lake. Northern Minnesota towns won high standings at the creamery butter scoring contest held in Fargo last week. There was 28 entries and only those scaring more than 90 points were reported.

Lawrence started a small bed of early celery this spring to see how it would develope. About a week ago he commenced bleaching it. At the end of four days it turned out to be the crispest, juciest and tender- est celery we have tasted in many months. It was absolutely free from tough, stringy substances, and de- monstrated heyond a doubt that this delicious plant can be grown suc- cessfully and profitably in this lo- cality. He now expects to put in two or three acres next year.—Laporte News. Bemidji ranks ahead of Austin, Fergus Falls, New Ulm, Owatonna and Brainerd in Minnesota post- offices of the second class, al- though all these towns claim a greater population. This became known today when Postmaster An- ton Erickson received the postal re- port. Offices of the Bemidji class must do $20,000 worth of business a year. The Bemidji postmaster’s salary is $2,600 while Brainerd re- ceives $2,500. Towns ahead of Be- midji in this class, all much larger, are Albert Lea, Crookston, Faribault, Hibbing, Mankato, Red Wing, Roch- ester, St. Cloud, Stillwater, Virginia and Winona.

Judge Stanton and Clerk of Court Fred Rhoda of Bemidji were in town Wednesday for the purpose of pre- giding at the granting of naturali- zation papers and at the hearing on ditches Nos. 6 and 7. About eighteen residents of this district were given their final papers. There was a lit- tle opposition developed to the ditch- es, but it made little difference. The judge granted the order establishing Ditch No. 6, south of Baudette and reserved his decision on No. 7 in the Williams district until he could con- sult with the engineer on some mi- nor changes, when the order will be granted—Baudette Rainy River Re- gion.

E. Brown, Prin., Amer. Nat. Bank, St. Paul. Archie Loudon, who is employed in the candy store of Charles Hagerlin, ‘was yesterday afternoon about to cut off an order of bananas from a newly arrived bunch, when he discovered the presence of a five-foot Treptile coiled among the bananas. Archie did not notice the snake until he had grasped it in his hand, and needless to say, he made a hasty exit from behind the counter. The snake doubt- less came from the tropics, and as snakes live for many months with- out food, it is evident that he had coiled there for a long sleep, only to be aroused yesterday afternoon. None of the fruit had been eaten by the reptile, and its presence was not no- ticed, as its color was nearly that of the fruit. The bunch of bananas was thrown out into the street and the snake uncoiled itself and made a dash for liberty. It was quickly stopped by the heel of Dave Wright, who stepped upon its head, thus end- ing its eventful life—Moorhead news in Fargo Courier News.

CIRCULAR SENT TO EMPLOYES Section and Bridge Men Are Urged to Hold Little Sessions With the Ruralists. Acting on the old adage that “mo- lasses catches more flies than vine- gar,” the management of the Chica- 80 Great Western Railroad Company has issued a circular to all section and bridge men on its lines asking them to make friends with the farm- ers, Every one of these employes has been specially urged to embrace all opportunities to cultivate the men who till the soil, in order that the Great Western may ahve the good will of the agriculturists and inci- dentally increase its volume of busi- ness. Plan is Tried Out. The idea for beginning a “glad hand” campaign originated with several -of the minor officers of the company, who experimented with the plan and later reported to the gener- al offices of the company that they had met with unusual success. As a result General Manager Hi- ram J. Slifer issued the following circular: “More than any other class of em- ployes, you have the opportunity of close contact with the farmers who are producing today that which means tonnage, and therefore reven- ue, for the railroad company tomor- row. “Have you ever thought of culti- vating the farmer while he is culti- vating the fields? A friendly chat over the fence, a wave of the hand as you pass by, may mean a shipment of corn or cattle—just because you were ‘interested in him. For the com- pany’s welfare as well as for your own sake cultivate the farmer.” War on Schemers. All railroads connected with the ‘Western Passenger Association have declared war against travelers who check baggage over their lines and then travel via trolley lines. This scheme, it is declared, has been worked in a large measure by commercial travelers who use mile- age tickets to get their trunks checked and save money by patron- izing an interurban electric road. Hereafter this method of doing business will be stopped by requiring holders of mileage tickets to present them at ticket offices and obtain a passage ticket for the distance to be traveled. This ticket must be shown before the baggage is checked. Same as Last Year. Winter tourist fares will be the same in Western Passenger Associa- tion territory this year as they were a year ago. The Western Passenger Associa- tion has given its sanction to the plan of basing charges for carrying baggage on differential lines on one- sixth of the differential fare. It al- 80 has appointed a committee to pre- pare a table of baggage rates desig- nated in dollars and cents. road has ordered telephones to equip five new circuits for train dispatch- ing.
