EDITORS TO BE HERE ON FRIDAY Members of Northern Minnesota As- sociation to Meet in Bemidji for Three Day Good Time Session SMOKER SATURDAY. EVENING Pushers of the Pen.Will Be Enter- tertained at Commercial Club— Trip to Red Lake Sunday. GOVERNOR TO BE HERE ALSO Minnesota’s Chief Executive Says He Will Be Among Visitors—What the Papers Say. Governor Eberhart will be in Be- midji Sunday. The chief executive has accepted the invitation of A. G. Rutledge, sec- retary of the Northern Minnesota Editorial association, to be present at the summer meeting of the editors| and will accompany them on their trip to Red Sunday. - It is expected that the ‘scribes’ will arrive in Bemidji about 100 strong Friday and the evening of that day will be spent in visiting the lumber mills and attending the Glee club entertainment of University week. Saturday the editors and their wives will be entertained on the lake and with automobile rides about the city and surrounding country. In the evening there will be a smoker at the Commercial club for the men, while the women will be the guests of the women of Bemid)i. Sunday the feature of the meeting will be given when together with the! governor the editors will visit Red Lake, and the Indian agency. That the editors are anticipating a big time is made evident by the fol- lowing editorials from papers of Northern Minnesota: Phis from: -the Hibbing Ore: “The Northern Minnesota Editor- ial association will hold its annual summer meeting at Bemidji on next Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and if that isn’t a combination that would| make Moore and his dream of Utopia look like a pollywog in the Pacific ocean we’ll eat our- last summer’s straw. The Bemidji boosters have the entertaining faculty down to a fine art, and the members of the Northern Minnesota Editorial asso- ciation know a little better than any other class in the world how to en- joy a good time all the time. Not to be able to be with them and enjoy the rounds of pleasure (no, never any other kinds of “rounds’) is enough to make the Statue of Liberty rest her head on the bosom of Old Atlantic and sob salty tears, so it can be imagined Jjust what'll happen to us next Fri- day when we see the old Wooden Shoe pull out without us. But our heart will be with that gathering of the princes of the realm, anyway, and we’ hope they’ll have just the best kind) of a time.” Judge Ives in the Cass Lake Times: “Don’t forget that the Northern Editorial Outing to be held at Bem- idji June 13, 14 and 15th. The prin- ter boys from all over the northern half of the state will be there and; Bemidji has made ample preparation to care for and give the best outing| they have ever had. COMMERCIAL CLUB ROOMS ROBBED Late last night or early this morn- ing the Commercial club rooms were broken into ana robbed of about twenty dollars in cash. No clue can be found to the thief who gained en- trance by cutting a hole below the yale lock and then turning the knob. The police were not notified until late this afternoon. Really Not Up to Her. A girl forced by her parents into & disagreeable match with an old man, whom she detested, when the clergy- man came to' that part of the service Where the bride is asked if she, con- sents to take the bridegroom for her hushand, said, with great simplicity: “Oh, dear, no, sir! But you are the fivat person who has asked my opinion about the matter.” To Keep Silver Bright. 3 Silver will keep bright, and much Jaborious cleaning and polishing :saved, it once a week it is immersed -in: gour milk and left there for twenty Wash it in very hot water and polish as quickly as possible.

W. Stanton, the Bemidji Jurist, is again being prominently spoken of as a candidate for governor of Minnesota at the election of 1914, and many papers throughout the state have taken up the cry and are loud in their support. ° The exceptional run which the Be- midji man made last fall for the im- portant office fo chief justice, the vote of Minneapolis alone defeating him, is taken to mean that he is strong over the entire state and that The would be in the running if a candi- date. The Fairmont Daily Sentinel says: ‘“There isn’t any better material in the state for governor than Judge Charles W. Stanton of Bemidji. And besides he is immensely popular, as WASH BY BEMIDJI Hubbard County Baseball Players Lose Out By 8 to 0 Score With “Big Bemidg.” M’KEIG PITCHES GOOD BALL “Little Bemidg” Journeys to Black- Duck and Receive Beating—Will Play Return Game Soon.

It will be well for-voters to keep his name in mind.” LANDS GIVE BIG PROFIT Raising of Clover On Cut Over Prop- ! erty in This Country Proves Profitable. WICKEN WRITES ON RESULTS That the half million acres of land laying- between = Bemidji .and the state park at Lake Itasca, a large portion of which is now laying idle, s money making property is made, evident in a letter written by John Wicken, a farmer residing at Verne postoffice, 18 miles southwest of Be- midji. , The letter of Wicken follows: Homestead Real Estate Loan Co,, " Grand Forks, N. D, Gentlemen: I reside on Section ' 11, township 144, Range 36, Postoffice address is Vern, Clearwater County, Minnesota. I have been growing clover for a number of years but I did not realize that it was any good for seed until 1911, when I left one acre for trial for’ seed, and out of that acre I threshed out 543 pounds of clean clover seed, which I sold at Shevlin Minnesota, for $20.00 per hundred pounds. In 1912 I threshed 36 bushels of clover seed from five acres and all this clover was threshed mith a com- mon threshing machine. It is im- possible to get all the seed threshed out without a clover huller. I have this year 15 acres seeded into clover which I will cut for seed, which looks like a good crop for this year. You can take off three crops of seed with only one seeding, but I would advise only taking two crops of seed from one seeding and the third crop that year under which will improve the land; our soil is a white clay loam and clay subsoil. Yours truly, —JOHN WICKEN: Clover seed is selling for 28 and 30 cents a pound in Benildji now. Install New Cement Mixer. Goodman and Loitved the contrac- tors who received the contract for constructing several blocks of pave- iment this summer have installed a new Smith cement mixer. The ma- chine has been put together and is ready for use. a 8 to 0.score: Two home runs were features in the game. For the first few innings no scores were made and the Akeley root- ers believed that their home team had the better of the match and impressed this belief on the Bemidji players with yells and witticisms. They were silenced in the fourth, however, by Brandon of -Bemidji who slamed a ball for a home run with two men on bases. The stunt was repeated in the latter part of the game by the catcher of the Bemidji team. Akeley runners did not get to third base and the battery, which hailed from Cass Lake, was given excelelnt support. The Bemidji boys praised the treat- ment they received at the hands of the Akeley people. Blackduck Trims “Little Bemidg” Clashing with the Blackduck base- ball team yesterday afternoon on the Blackduck grounds the “Little Bem- idg” nine was defeated by a score of 14 to 13. Although many runs were made—it-did..not.prevent . .the game! from arousing interest and over a hundred rooters of that place gather- ed on the side lines and endeavored to rattle the Bemidjites who held the lead until the ninth inning when the Blackduck nine brought in two runs. Charlie Paul pitched for Bemidji and kept his opponents guessing until the last inhing when he weakened. Tan- ner was the star of the game, making five clean hits in six times at bat. His flelding was a - feature of the game. Clerks Trim the Scrubs. In their first game of the season the postoffice clerks defeated a pick- up team of scrub players by a score of 20 to 12. McClennan pitched for the postoffice nine and only allowed a few hits. They are now open for games and expect to play any of the local teams. The lineup for the game was as follows: ostoffice clerks—Ralph Grover, c¢; Harry McClennan, . p; Bill Grover, 1b; Ed Gould,-2b; Walter Hatch, ss; Considine, cf; Cobb, rf..
