The funeral services Of the Nc

Joseph Michaud was native

He had a valuable claim near

and the organization was perfect
throughout all of the colonies. In
1888 the name was changed from
the Sons of Liberty to its present.
The garb of the uniformed rank
is the Uniform Of the colonial

The order is growing in strength
throughout the west as well in

LITERARY NOTES.

There vas no meeting May II.
There will be no more meetings helt
this term.
The society has done nothing in the
past month. therefore we have no lit.
erary notes. .
We certainly feel very sorry for
the editors of the Sirius when they are
SO exceedingly narrow-mindea as to
become libelists and perjurers on
account of just and true criticism
given in these notes, for, of course no
one but one in this state of mind
would possibly publish some absolute
lies in order to avenge what they
wrongly think to be their much ag-
grieved rights. But in reply to their
idiotic dreams we simply say that If
any one is for a moment in doubt as
to the truth of our statements and the
falsity of theirs, let whatsoever it may
be inspect the issues of the Sirius and
the proceedings of the society, for no
one could ask better proof.

Special Rates for Fishermen.

~. The Great Northern will ex.
pertinent with cheap rates tc
fishing resorts this summer for
the first time, and put in a new
rate sheet Wednesday last, Civ
ing round trips to many lakes
and streams at one fare. Special
rates for Wednesdays and Sat-
urdays will be in effect until Aug.
%. Where a one-fare round trip
rate does not apply special rates
are made. The new sheet covers
the important points in the
northwest.
New Paynesville and Alexan-
dria, Cass Lake, Bemidji, Walker,
Osakis and Browns Valley are
included under the special rates,
and for the sake of bringing peo-
pie from Sioux Falls and similar
points to the Twin Cities and
Minnetonka, a rate of $3.50 has
been made. Duluth gets the adj
vantage of one-fare round trip
rates to fishing resorts along the
FosStOn extension.

The Minnesota legislature arose
to the demands of the hour and
passed a satisfactory primary

the question and then produced
such a law that the, governor
wouldn't christen it. And that
state is supposed to be in the

The great activity in the build
ing of fine residences in Bemidji
this year means much for our
village. 1t implies faith in and
contentment with our town. Out
siders have no confidence in a
town built on wheels--and bust

favorable sign for the perman-

getting ready to stay. And why
should they not? Take it the

The Improved Order of Red Men
while new fraternal order in the
west, is said to be the oldest
strictly American organization of
its kind in existence. The organ
ization was first perfected in 1851,
and was known as the Sons of Lib
erty, it being the members of that
society who made the historical
seizure of English tea in Boston
harbor and threw it overheard.
General Washington was one of
the first Sachems, and was at the
head of the order for many years.
Much of the ritual was taken from
the ceremonies of the Delaware
tribe of Indians, and the members
when making their numerous
raids in the interests of liberty
were disguised as Indians. Chief
st. Tamina of the Deiawares who,
by the way, made the famous and
historical treaty with VIM. Penn,
was very friendly to the liberty
loving order, and it is iu his honor
that the 18th day of May is always
celebrated. All of the workings
of the order were densely secret
