Committee Meeting.

The charter commission com.
mittee on ward divisions and
elections held a meeting last
night. The matter Of dividing
thecity into wards was discussed.
The plan Of division which will
probably be adopted will divide
the city into four wards. All the
part Of the city south Of Third
street will constitute one ward
and Beltrami and Irvine avenues
will be the dividinglines between
the other three. The ward be
tween Beltrami and Irvine
avenues will probably include
much Of the outlying territory Of
theacity.

GIVES BOOST
Man Who Writes Thoughts on
Things Adyertises Bemidii
as Divorce Resort.

Ralph w. Wheelock whose
Thoughts on Things, a daily
feature Of the Minneapolis Trib-
une, have gained him quite a
reputation in the northwest, has
this to say Of Bemidji and the
divorce resort proposition:
An enterprising Bemidji attor-
ney suggests through the Pion-.
eer Of that town that it's attrac-
zion as a divorce resort should
receive more attention. He points
to the fact that there were 30
divorces in Beltrami county last
year and he doesn't sac why,
with judicious advertising, east
ern Divorces should not come
here in numbers that will exceed
the palmy days of either Grand
Forks, Fargo or Sioux Falls, and
litigation in the divorce line will
flourish like horseradish on a
sunny side hill.

Mallard Call: Last week q. b.
Walker obtained a charter from
the state, granting him privilege
to put two hoists on Mallard lake
and two on Itasca lake for load
ing logs on the cars in summer.
Some have formed the impress
sion that the railroad will be
taken up, but it is a permanent
thing. The above mentioned
move on the part Of Mr.. Walker,
is enough to convince the most
skeptical of it's permanency.
More than that we are authori-
lively informed that Walker &
Akely company have purchased.
four hundred millions Of pine on
the reservation near Mallard, and.
that forty million feet Of it will be
logged next winter, and the bal
ance, each succeeding winter I'M

Many Friends Of the Popular
County Surveyor Urge Him
e. .s s4 u. t3Sg ID f3as p
to be a Candidate.
UNDERSTOOD THAT MR.. STONER
HAS GIVEN HIS CONSENT.
Would Make 2 Most Excellent
Mayor Representing all
Classes Fairly.

Thus far candidates for mayor
have been very backward in de-
claring themselves. Many names
haye been mentioned but no one
has consented to accept the posi-.
tion. Among those who have
been prominently mentioned is
M. D. Stoner, the popular
county surveyor. Mr.. Stoner
has large business interests in
Bemidji and in other parts Of the
county and has been loathe to
give up the time that it will be
necessary for a mayor OF Bemidji
to devote to his public. duties. 1t
has been felt in many quarters,
however, that Mr.. Stoner is ex-
ceptionally well qualified for the
position and so much pressure
has been brought to bear upon
him from all classes of citizens
that he has finally consented to
stand as a candidate.
Few men in the city are more
popular than Mr.. Stoner and per-
haps none are better qualified to
be mayor of the city. He is one
of the heaviest tax payers of the
city but represents also in q
peculiar degree the laboring
classes and under his administra-
ton the various interests of the
city would be represented to a
degree which would not obtain,
perhaps, in the case Of any other
of the numerous available can
didates. Il
The city is to be congratulated

SUFFER
Moose and Deer Exhausted With
Severe Winter and Heavy
Snow.

The deep SHOWS of the present
winter make 1t one OF the hard.
est for years on deer and moose
in northern Minnesota. The deer
will come out of the rigors Of the
winter weak and emaciated. The
same thing applies to moose, but
liz anything they will be even
poorer than the deer.
Moose feed on swamp grass,
now buried beneath two feet OF
snow in most places, and on pop:
lar sprouts and twigs. Before
they can get at this food it is
necessary for them to paw away
the snow. In the spring they
are often SO weak they can walk
only with difficulty, and many
will die from the unusual ex-
posture, just as the range cattleof
the west.
Both deer and moose are fall
ing a frequent prey to bands of
timber wolves. Deer are com
paratively an easy prey, but the
hungry timber bandits encoun-
ter an enemy worthy their mettle
when they assail a monarch bull
moose. They are we'll aware Of
this fact, and when they find one
that is weak from hunger they
dog his footsteps day and night
until he falls a prey to their con-
stancy. In open a battle they
will kill a wolf with a single
stroke of their hoofs.
A cruiser for the Beltrami
Timber company recently came
upon a moose standing in the
middle of a small slough, knee
deep in the snow. At a safe and
conveniet distance around him
was a pack of eight wolves.
How long the moose had been
surrounded is question. A
few shots from the woodlands
Winchester dispersed the band.
The moose was so weak that it
gained the shelter of the under
bush nearby with difficulty.

mediately. A somewhat lengthy
discussion, which was at times
decidedly sensational followed
and the meeting adjourned by
adopting motion to the effect
that the petition be received and
placed on file and that action be
taken at the earliest practical
moment. Mrs. Trask on behalf
of the w. c. T. U. withdrew the

Homesteader's Plight.

John Switzer squatted on his
claim few miles from Big Falls
after receiving assurances from
the Duluth Office that the land
was vacant. When his town was.
opened to settlement last month.
he termed that his claim had
been scripped for years. II the
Blackjack Times which tells the
following story is correct, Mr.
Switzer can still secure his orig,
inal claim by amending his filing.
The Times says: "He has three
buildings on the land and consid-
cradle clearing and had made a
comfortable home and was nearly
crazed with grief after he found
the land was taken. He was in
formed at the Duluth Office that
nothing could be done, but word
11 ome way got to Washington
tle officials telegraphed back
he would be entitled to his
fling. But in his despair and
desperation he fled on piece Of
swamp land adjouTning his old
claim and did not know until too
Hate that he was entitled to his
rights.
