Minneapolis Man Says Num-

SOMETHING UNUSUAL IN SO

and Lawns Attract Great
Deal of Attention.

pretty homes the most remark

able town. said I. ]. Stewart Of

midi should have such a large
number of beautiful homes set

thing extraordinary This is my
first visit to Bemidji, though I
have heard a good deal about it.
knowing the extreme youth Of
the village expected to find the
same condition of affairs existing
here as usually prevails in other
newly settled communities, un-
attractive houses set in bare,
ugly grounds. Instead of that
you have fine lawns, handsome
dwellings, trees and flowers in
abundance, a stunning little lake
and everything going to make up
an ideal place to olive in.
"a lum berjack town? Well, l
should say not. The business
which called me here was not of
any special importance, and |
came very nearly leaving it to an
other. This would have been a
real misfortune, but | would
probably never have known it

ssSpeaking of the groves OF
handsome trees, would suggest
that a monument be erected to
the memory Of whoever was re

served. Too much appreciation
cannot be shown him, or they, it

townsite of trees the first thing,
which is a crime against the
people, and serious blow to the

His Bid for Building School
House Addition the
Lowest.
COST OF STRUCTURE WILL BE
ABOUT $4,000.
Contractors Boyd and Mageau
Also had Bids for Work
Entered.

Frank Mixer will in all proba-
bility be awarded the contract
for building the addition to the
Bemidji school house. The
school board will hold a meeting
late this afternoon, at which time
a decision.on the matter will be
reached. AS Mr.. Miller's bid is
nearly $4,000 lower than any
other the contract will undoubt-
edly go to him.
The board of education held a
a special meeting at 10 O'Clock
this morning to consider the
matter and remained in session
till noon. There were three bids
in. They We're opened and were
found to be for the follewing g
sums:
Contractor Boyd, So, 974;; Frank
Mageau, $8,528; Frank Miller,
Sc, 595. These prices include the
full basement, and all of them
may be reduced from $500 to
$500 by using cheaper material
in some parts Of the building.
Leaving off the basement would
reduce the cost about $1,000, but
it is not at all likely that this Will
be done.

would not go SO far as to claim
that we are absolutely sure of
winning; still | am extremely
confident as to the Outcome. We
have won on every point SO far.

new district, but we did. Itwas
said we could not get the location
at Cass Lake, but we did. It
was said we could not get the
commissions issued, but we did.
[ have now very much less
anxiety than I would have had if
this contest had been made at an
earlier stage in the game. Under
all circumstances Cass Lake is
morally entitled to retention of
the office
Read those last two sentences

man Bemidji is really the place

located, and more, if the con-
venience of the settlers who will
have business to transact before

California Fruit Dealers Have
the Country in Their
Grasp.
BEMIDJI is AFFECTED WITH
REST OF COUNTRY.
Fruits Are Higher by a Large
Percentage Than They We're
Last Year.

"Bemidji, Duluth and Superior
and nearly every other city in
the country is IN the grip Of the
California Fruit Dealers associa-
ton this year, . said a man trav-
cling for Duluth commission
house yesterday, in speaking OF
the high prices charged for fruit
this season
s'The combination of California
fruit growers includes about 95
per cent of them, and they hang
together in one of the closest
CONT binations the country has
seen.
s'Shipments have been kept
down until the supply is hardly
sufficient to meet the demand,
and. mrices have been boosted
abo. Sall reason. Housekeepers
all over the state have complained
off the high price of California
fruit this year, but the dealers
are not to blame. The associa-
ton has SO fixed it this year that
there is no money in California
fruit for anyone but the mselves.
They say that if they cannot get
the prices they ask for the fruit,
they will can it Of dry it. They
have been aided in their efforts
to boost the price by light crop.

prices prevailing last year will

Last year California peaches
sold for go cents a box. This
year boxes of the same size are

''This raise in price is net
profit for the fruit growers. as
the cost Of production is, of
course, no higher than last year
and freight rates are about the
same.
"The result of this has been
that our trade in California fruits
has fallen off greatly this year.
Fruit is generally the feature of
the summer trade, but this year
it is quiet, Shipments are COM

the season is now at its height,
