WHAT THEY SAY.

DR.. BlakeSlee: "I'he potato
crop this year will undou btedly
be exceedingly large in this sec.
ton, and indications are for a.
good price owing to unfavorable
conditions in the potato raising
belt in southern Minnesota. !"
George Ripley, Iron River,
Wis: "The people of Bemidji
seem to think that the town is
rather dull at the present time,
| have been here for severn days
and [ find it the lveliest town
I've struck for many years and
only wish that Iron River could
equal it as a business point. !"
Mayor Henderson: "Bemidii
should be incorporated as a city.
Under it's present organization,
the council is Invested of much
power that rightfully belongs to
a lawmaking body that rules a
city the size of Bemidji, and as a
result there are many things
that are not accomplished that
could be under a city charter. :"
Paul Hogan, Grand Forks: If
Bemidji were properly advertis-
ed as summer resort there
would be thousands of visitors
here every summer. The peo-
pie on the outside know nothing
of the excellent fishing, fine
bathing and other attractions
that this point offers. Seems to
me that the Business Mems club
should do something in the way
of letting others know OF the ad
vantoges Of Bemidji as summer
resort over many other places
that are now attracting many
tourists"

UNDER AMUSEMENT.
Motion to Dismiss Case in Which K.
of L. Factions Are Involved.

In the Supreme Court of the United
States, yesterday afternoon, as stated in
The Star, Attorney Henry E. Davis entered
a motion to dismiss the case of Simon
Burns and others against John w. Hayes
and others, involving the controversy be-
tween the two factions of the order of the
Knights of Labor. Mr.. Davis represents
the Hayes interest, which secured a ia
vorable decision from the Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia. In the same
case Attorney John Ridout, representing
Burns. asked for rule upon Hayes and his
associates, requiring them TO show cause
why they should not be punished for con-
tempt of court in receiving mail addressed
to the order.
The case was originally decided favorably
to Burns by the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict, which issued an injunction against
the Hayes faction. That opinion was re-
versed by the Court of Appeals of the Dis
trict. The Postmaster General accepted the
latter decision as terminating the injunc-
ton and since its PRONUNCIATION has deliver
ed the mail to Hayes Mr.. Ridout contends
however, that the appeal of the case to
the Supreme Court of the United States has
the effect of a stay and argues that HAYES
and his associates are guilty of contempt
in accepting the mail
The court took the two points under adj
vlsement.

mirable one for the time.
Early histories of the city and the recol-
lections of men now living. show but few
houses between the navy yard and the
city proper, and where now are closely built
and well-kept streets with all our modern
advantages of rapid transit. were then great
stretches of broken country with rough
roads crossed by meandering streams, MAX
ing the journey to the city rough and
dangerous undertaking. The usual method
of getting to and from the Grand Lodge
by the representatives of Naval was on
horse back, and when we add TO the DIS
comfort of performing this duty the fact
that failure of representation involved a
fine we can congratulate ourselves on liv-
ing in the present age.
Effects of Civil War.
1.-THE period of the civil war laid new
burdens upon the lodge They were con-
stantly called upon to assist sick and dis
tressed sojourners, and for several years
performed the last sad rites over brethren
from foreign lodges who had given the last
full measure of devotion to their country.
They emerged from the ordeal at last
stronger than ever. AS IN the days of the
invasion of the British, so now We find the
members of the lodge well represented In
the forces organized for the defense of the
city, and 1t is with some pride that we
point to an entry in the minutes of 1854,
setting forth that owing to the Illness OF
the master and the absence of the wardens
at the front no meeting could be held on
that evening.
"In the sixties the lodge again reached a
point in It's growth and development where
better accommodations became imperatiyely

memorable by an historical address by B.
B. French.
For n generation the lodge building as
remodeled served well its purpose, but as
the nineties were entered the necessity for
a change became more and more insistent.
Although the lodge had experienced no
phenomenal growth during the these years,
yet the increase was sufficiently marked to
make more commodiouS quarters desirable.
Added to this, the center of population on
the Hill had materially shifted, and the old
site became further and further away from
the hub of the business and residence sec

July "a, 1894 the corner stone was laid
with great ceremony by Grand Master
Henry Merrill-every lodge in the jurisdic-

Lodge, and escorted by the De Molay
Mounted Commandery, and headed by the
full Marine Band, marching from the tenn

Grand Master David G. Dixen In due and
ancient form, and the lodge fairly start i
on the highway of success and growth
growth which, though carefully watched
and pruned has still been little short of
phenomenal. Thus ends the history of the
first century of this grand old lodge, which
we have faith to believe is but in the in
fancy of it's career of usefulnesse."

Oldest Past Masters.
While all the original members of the
lodge have long since passed away the body
rejoces in the survival of two of its Oldest
past masters, Charles H. Venable, Worship
ful master in 1S49 now living here at the
advanced age of eighty-lve. and Judge
John w McKim of Boston. worshpfuI
master In 1884. Both these had passed the
chairs before the end of the lodges first
half century.
Fifty-four men in all have allied the
east" in Naval Lodge. The first master
was John Davis of Abel, who was the sec
Ond master workman of the Washington
navy yard; a strong, virile character, of
simple faith and life and a potent force
in the local affairs of the time and well
qualified to shape the destiny of the strug-
Cling newborn lodge. He served as master
for seven years, and for long period there
after was apparently the power behind the
throne. He was also the first treasurer of
the District Grand Lodge and very active
and efficient in the formative period OF
that body.
The other surviving past masters are:
