Nelson, who was well known around here, having worked as a lagger for the Oliver company, died at the Calumet jail Tuesday evening, evidently from the effect of an ov- erdose of morphine. He had been down to Duluth and came to Grand Rapids on the noon At that place he purchased a ticket for Calumet and boarded the train, seemingly sober, ulthough it was apparent that he had been drinking. The train was late, that afternoon and it was at about 7 o’clock when they reached Calumet. One of the train crew then attempted to awaken him, thinking he was asleep, but his ef- forts were of no avail. They then carried him out on the depot plat- form and summoned Marshall Gra- ham, who locked him up in the vil- lage jail.

Appropr’at’ons were made from the road and bridge fund as follows: Three hundred dollars to the town of Sago for the improve- ment of roads; $100 to be expended | under the direction of Commission- ; er O’Brien on the road running west from Drumbeater lake in 55-27; $50 | for the improvement of the Sand- brick road in 61-25; $300 to the town of Sand Lake. In addition to these appropriations, the state engineer was instructed to survey and lay out a drainage ditch along the Seaman road in 56-27 and let the contract for digging, providing it does not ex- ceed $50; a committee consisting of Commissioners Nelson, O’Brien and Mullins was appointed to let the ditching job along the road in sec- tion 36, 55-24; Commissioners Nelson, King and O’Brien were appointed a committee to let the contract for the Oteneagen road; Shellman, Mul- lins and Nelson were appointed to let the contract for the necessary re- pairs on the road in 53-24 to the John O’Brien farm; Mullins, King and O’Brien were appointed to examine the work done under the Grattan contract. The next thing taken up was the trunk roads, which subject is occupy- ing the attention of the whole of northern Minnesota. The routes of these roads are as follows: Grand Forks to Duluth, nearly paralleling the Great Northern; Bemidji to In- ternational Falls, by way of Itasca park, running on the town lines of the towns of Moose Park, Alvywood and Ardenhurst in Itasca county; In- ternational Falls to the Twin Cities by way of Bovey, Coleraine and Grand Rapids, entering Itasca county in unorganized 62-23 and following the old Koochiching road down by way of Release and thence around Po kegama lake to Hill City and on in- to Aitkin county; the other in Deer River north on the range line to the north boundary of the county | where it will connect with the estab- lished Koochiching county road. E. C. Kiley appeared before the board in behalf of the Grand Rapids com- mercial club and talked in favor of roads as endorsed at the Bemidji, Aitkin and Cambridge meetings. Com- missioner King, who is irman | of the good roads committee of the Northern Minnesota Development as- | sociation, also spoke in th favor, giving an interesting talk and pre- | senting figures showing that | building would work no hardship on } the settlers whose fitted by reason of their construction. !

The board then passed a resolution endorsing the route of the road as adopted at the Cambridge meeting.

O. R. Mangseth, who placed Cole- raine on the map as the champion skee jumper of America, was given the contract for painting the court house, his bid being $2,350, The bid | of Emil Solve, of Virginja, was $60 lower than that of Mr. Mangseth, but the board took the stand that inso- much as Mr. Mangseth is an_ Itasca county man, whose work is well | known, while on the other hand Mr. | Solve is a St. Louis county man, with’ no business interests in this county and unknown here, the former was entitled to the contract. The contract was let to John Whal- ing for replastering the building. His bid was $1,800.

DULUTH MAN’S VIEW ON GRAND RAPIDS ‘ G. A. Elder, secretary and treasurer of the Commecial Investment Co., Du- luth: “Grand Rapids is certainly the real home town of the range. The minute you step off the train a differ- ent feeling comes over you; It certain- ly has a fine bunch of people too, and say, that white way of yours is truly a monument to the enterpris- ing spirit of the town. Grand Rapids is bound to become one of the big towns in the northern part of the state. Down at Duluth we hear that its an assured fact the Great North- ern will build that extension from Milaca the coming year and _ there are also rumors that another road is figuring on entering your town.” FINE PICTURES AT THE GEM THEATRE, Manager Geo.
