A PAGE SIX THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER 9 THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30, 1919 LARGE FLOUR MILLS MAY BE ERECTED SOON, NORTH DA Point Chosen for State Owned Business Projects; Soo Line Would Extend - SANDEEN PURCHASES WICKSTRAND FARM “Pioneer” Publicity Results in Inquiries About New Light System for City (Special to Pioneer.) Clearbrook, Oct. 30.—The sun is coming our way, and the snow is dis- appearing. Amen! Banker-Farmer L. Jensen, of this place, has this week been attending the dairymen's convention held at the Twin Cities. Miss Hanna Loun of this place was on October 25, married to Arthur Gunderson, of Mentor, this state. The happy event took place at Bagley. They will reside at Mentor, where the happy groom is the operator of a large farm. Miss Loun was the well known and highly respected daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elias Loun. The dispatches from Washington state that the railroads will be re- turned to their owners January 1. It this be true 'we are willing to waive all previous objections to New Year’s celebrations. With joy uncontined let us “ring out the old, ring in the new, ring out the false, ring in the true.” It now seems an assured fact that Grand Forks, N. D., will be the point chosen without a question of doubt, for the site of the large flour mills, and terminal elevators, which the state of North Dakota intends to establish and operate at once. When these industries are located there, it will without a question of doubt only be a short time until the “Soo” line will make its much discussed cut oft from Plummer, west to Grand Forks. It is a possible chance that the road ., would take in, Crookston, providing that hustling city ‘would make '{t - worth the while for them. The *‘Soo” people are not going to stand idily ‘by and see’all this vast business slig through their fingers, but will be there with bells on, as soon as they once more become their own masters. With the splendid and direct outlet this railroad has with the sea port at Duluth to the east and the world markets, it appears almost a safe wager to place that the Plummer- Grand Forks cut off will be in opera- tion two years hence, providing the government control is 1ffted. and Grand Forks lands the plums before mentioned. From Grand Forks the “So0™ will undoubtedly be extended to tap the main line at Cairington, N. D. Locally and to northern Min- mesota as a whole, this cut off would mean A blessing, especially to the heavy timbered sections of this terri- tory as it would open to them a larg- er and direct road into the heart of North Dakota and its large business centers. Speed the day for its early completion and operation. There is talk of making the word .*“damn” unlawful. If'we are to have such reform legislation we should ‘have it right away. Next year is the time for census-taking and when the count is made not a city or town will . show up with anything like the popu- lation it has been claiming. So pro- tect the enumerators before the figures are made public and the cuss- ing begins. Evald Sandeenof iSnclair has this week purchased the fine farm of Ar- vid Wickstrand, of Dudley township, consideration, $36 per acre. This is a splendid location and we wish to commend Mr. Sandeen upon his ex- cellent choice. Mr. Sandeen had bar- gained for the Louis Johnson estate fn Sinclair, but through some fault in the transfer, the deal fell through. Mr. Sandeen boarded the west bound passenger here Tuesday evening for a visit with relatives and friends at Trail. ¥ Nils Hagen, editor and publisher of the Oklee Herald, looked after his farming interests in town of Holst, the first partof this week. ‘We hope the strike season is over, but if the workers decide to go on a strike this year we hope it will be the United Order of Bill Collectors, and that the strike will be called on the morning of November 1. If ‘we were to strike in a time like this, we would rather people would attribute it to laziness. Laziness is something to be genuinely ashamed of all right, but it’s worse to be re- garded as a fool. E Emil Sandeen and Frank Boggs . 'were busy Bemidji visitors, Tuesday. ‘Walter Berg of Clover township was a busy shopper in our city the first part of this week. He was one ‘©of our honored service boys and spent several months in “Sunny France.” If you are one of the world war Ring the bells all night, boys, if you want to. ‘ veterans, you cannot afford to not be a member of the American Legion. Join a good local post with pep and spirit, such as the Melvin Johnson post, located at Clearbrook, and be- come a real booster. If you cannot come over drop a line to Carl E. Skog, secretary, and he will be pleased to send you full particulars by return mail. Clearbrook is certainly in position to prove that the “Pioneer” is omne of the best advertising medimums in this section of Minnesota. short time ago your local squib here mentioned the fact that this point was a splendid point at whigh to in- stall an electric lighting plant. Al- ready three concerns are placing be- fore our council the reasons why their proposition is the best and should ve acceptéd. Qur'ccmcern is local, another from the state of Min- nesota and another from North Da- kota. Under such conditions there is no reason why Clearbrook should longer remain in the dark. That is to the returns secured in the “Pio- neer.” Motto: Follow suit if you wish results. Carl and Eddie Wennberg went to Warren Tuesday evening, where their brother, Melvin, underwent an operation for appendicitis Wednes- day morning. A wire from their re- ports. that Melvin stood the opera- tion fine and is doing fine under the conditions imposed upon him. A|some light on the question and due There are 50 many wondering their heads off as to whom iinnesota should elect as its next governor. That is a very small question if the people are allowed to settle it as to their own good, if the all-around pro- fessional politicians of every breed and color would keep hands off. There is'a man in this state who would serve the state with honor and effi- ciency above reproach, who has served in the world war, poth at home and overseas, and who posses- lses executive ability on par with any man in the state, and would give Minnesota a business.administration which we would be proud of.
