In another column of this issue of the Herald-Review is published an atmendment to the articles of incor- poration of the First State Bank of Grand Rapids, increasing’ its capital stock to $15,000.00. This move was made necessary by its largely increasing business, which is shown by the following compara- tive statement of its total assets: Total assets July 31, 1903 ..$ 62,017 67 Total assets July 31, 1905... 75,835 95 Total assets July 31, 1907 .. 104,780 82 On July 10th, 1903, Mr. A. C. Bos- sard, general manager of tne Itasca Paper company, became identified with the bank and was made its pres- dent. On July Ist, 1904, a fully equipped savings department was in- Stailed'and opened to the public, and the fact that more than 450 people of Grand Rapids and vicinity have opened savings accounts is evidence of the popularity of this department and proves the wisdom of the move on the part of the bank officials. Public confidence and the strength and management of the bank is also reflected in the fact that the First State Bank is officially appointed a depository of the funds of the State of Minnesota and the county of Itasca, and in-addition the following yillages and towns deposit all of their funds with this progressive banking institution: Viliage of Grand Rapids. ‘Yownship of Grand Rapids. Village of Cohasset. Township of Bass Brook. Township of Feeley, Minn. Ss SOCIETY. Two Dollars a Year. Township of Guodland, Mion. Township of Arbo, Minn. Cashier L. M. Bolter, who has bad the active management of the bank since its incorporation five years ago, has reason to feel justly proud of the success which has attended his untire ing efforts to -build up a prosperous business and a strong, sound, finan- cial institution, . All Water Not Same to Fish. By testing the amount of oxygen in lake water it can be determined just what kind of fish can live and multiply therein. This is an import- ant discovery by Prof. Birge of the Wisconsin game and fish commis- sion and of the Wisconsin university faculty. Samuel F, Fullerton, superintend- ent of fisheries for the Minnesota Game and. fish commission, has returned from Erie, Pa., where he attended the meeting of the American Fisheries society, and tells of Prof. Birge’s*explanation there of his find. “Prof. Birge, said Mr. Fullerton, told us he had proved his theory of ‘gases in water’ by practical tests of waters in Wisconsin lakes. Lakes vary greatly, he says, in the amount of gases they contain, especially oxygen. Different species of fish require different amounts of oxygen. Thus with pike, running water and a great amount of free oxygen is needed for their prosperity. In waters the reverse of this, pike can- not live. This doubtless explains why itis that after we have dumped tens of thousands of pike fry in Minneton- ka that not one pike has ever been caught there. They simply won’t live in Minnetonka water. “We intend to look into Prof. Brige’s theory; aud will probably adopt his system of tests of lake waters for Minnesota use. That is to say, before we have fish fry ofa certain kind freed ina lake we will have the waters of that lake examin- ed by Birge test to seeif that variety ofa fish can live therein. This HY save untold thousands of fish fry well as time, labor, and actual money which otherwise might be wasted.” including back. Size 22 x 22 inches.

He tore tne flag, .pole and all, from its position against the wall and took it out, and the meeting was broken up by the sheriff and armed deputies soon after it assembled. The sheriff has all along manifested his resolve toenforce the orderof the mayor, who has forbidden. for the present, mass meetings and march- Ing. Harry Grimmer, the governor’s executive clerk, arrived at Bovey and Coleraine Friday, as the personal representative of the governor and to keep himinformed as tothe exact standing of the thirgs on this edge of the iron range. His stay is thought to be as long as there is any danger. He wil] bein daily commu- nication with the chief executive. Concealed Weapons—Every- thing Is Under Control. Protection Guaranteed. The latest from Nashwavk, the scene of the most trouble in this coua- ty, shows that the authorities have the case we]] in hand. The first part of the week things looked serious, but the prompt action of Sheriff Hoo- lihan and his deputies caused the strikers to know tbat any outbreak would be quelled. Through this prompt action there were but few ar- rests—mostly for carrying concealed weapons. The violators were taken to this city, given trial] and bound over to the next grand jury. At the beginning of the trouble the sheriff declared that there should be no meetings, no carrving of the red flag or marches to threatened points, things so dear tothe heart of the average striker. Some of the strikers thought that their rights were being trampled upon, and forthwith. sent acommunication to Governor John- son demanding the removal of the sheriff, and the reply they received was not what they expected or looked for. The governor, in bis reply, stated that the sheriff was not only doing bis duty aud enjoying his con- dence; also, that if the sheriff did not have force enougb to cope-with the matter in‘hand the resources of the state were back of him to see that its laws were complied with. County Attorney Thwing has been on the ground and bas doue every- thing in his power to aid and advise the sheriff in his efforis to preserve the peace. Wednesday J. M. Powers, a Cole- raine deputy, forced his way intoa miners’ meeting in the , federation ball, after he had been told that a red flag was the feature of the dec- een \Jonn Maki, Petriella Friday morning sent president of tne local branch of the federation, to Nashe wauk to call a meeting of the strikers there. He states that if there is any interference from Sheriff Hoolihan he his prepared to call armed, men from all parts of the range to resist. The only cloud in the industrial sky is the sullen attitude of the more desperate strikers on the range, who have been stirred up by the agitators of the Western Federation of Miners. Mining operations have been resumed on the ranges, With big crews, and up to date there has been no trouble experienced, but how long j this condition will last it is hard to say. The company does not want any violence, and every effort will be made to prevent it, but if trouble does come, the company is prepared for it, and the men who have return- ed to work will be protected. At Hibbing Petrilla, the leader of the Western Federation, has been making incendiary speeches, inciting to violence blvuodshed and everything else that his excited listeners would stand for. There is hardly any likelihood of trouble, but, if there is, the authorities are ina position to stamp it out. With the resumption of work by the dock strikers at Allouez, Duluth and Two Harbors, the way is now clear for the resumption of work on the ranges. Must of the mines and open-pits have furce enough at band | to start up with, but not enough to ;reach a Maximum output. Men are bound to be in demand, as it is said over 2000 have left the range and found employment elsewhere. There | have been large defections from the ranks of the strikers, most of whom have applied for their old positions. The operators declare that all who | apply for work will be given it and there will not be any discrimination | in the hiring of the men-on account | Jof their participation in the present strike.
