Bailey Has Information.

Recorder Bailey is today ex-
.hibitlnga letter which he received
from the Crookston Water, Light
and Power company regarding
the rate which it charges Polk
county for water rentals. 1t is a
reply to an inquiry made by Mr..
Baileyand states that theamount
charged for the court house
alone, without the jail, is $50 per
annum and thatthc rate is much
too low, as the county uses a very
great deal Of water for lawn pur.
poses during thesummermonths
This does not include the bill for
electric lighting, and MIR. Bailey
says it is all very significant in
view of recent statements and
comparisons made.

Expect Smallpox.

All the local physicians are
authority for the statement that
there will be large number of
smallpox cases developed in this
section as soon as the cold
weather sets in. Bemidji has
now had three seasons of it, and
as the disease, has been epidemic.
all over Minnesota for the past
several seasons it cannot hope to
escape this year. The cases will
not be as numerous as last win
ter, however, if precedent holds
good. There is only one case at
the pest house at present and
this was not developed in this
city. Vaccination is the only
preventative and those who are
prejudiced against it must take a
chance.
