notified in constructing the line after
the fire, that the poles should be
erected on the edge of the walk where
they belong. The Company request
ed permission to place them where
they are at present, temporarily, and
this temporary permission was grant
ed them. For your information | beg
to state that | took the matter up
with Mr.. Turner, the head OF the
Electric Light Company, last winter,
with view of getting these poles
removed without any legal contest If
possible. Mr.. Turner promised to be
back in couple of weeks, and it was
nv intention at such time to call
special meeting of the council to
take the matter up with Mr.. Turner,
but Mr.. Turner has not been here
vet. In the mean time the poles in
their present location are very obnox-
ious to the citizens of Havre, and, il
Mr.. Turner does not get here IN few
days, it will seem necessary to begin
legal proceedings to effect this end.
Mr.. Turner, in my conversation,
seemed very reasonably inclined, and
| should dislike to have the city re-
sort to legal contest with him, but
the poles must be removed. (Contlnued)

Edward H. Koppang Delayed
Treatment by Surgeon
for Three Weeks.

Edward e. Koppang, a farmer
living north of Shevlin, was in
the city yesterday to secure
treatment for a broken arm
which he sustained three weeks
ago. Koppang was driving a
spirited team of horses north of
the bridge at Shevlin when a
small boy riding a bicycle ap-
peared. The team became fright
ened and ran away, throwing
Koppang to the ground. He was
unconscious for a few minutes
and was picked up by men who
witnessed the accident. After
recovering consciousness kop-
pang felt pain in bis arm but
thought that it was merely a
'bruise. He went back to his
farm and remained there for
three weeks, during which time
the arm grew steadily worse I'M
til yesterday, when he came to
Bemidji. After examining the
arm local physician pronounced
the injury broken arm.
