the lake basins, ana can speak
lntelligently and give good ideas
as to the drainage of these lands.
In Mr.. McCuaig you find, in this
instance, the unskilled mechanic.
He has not been over these lands,
he does not know the condition
of the swamps and jungles. If
you vote for your own interests,
which man will you cast your
ballot for? 1t is easily answered,
Mr.. Opsahl is the man.
If the state swamp lands were
placed on the market today their
minimum price would be $l0,00O,-
600, which at four per cent would
be 100000 interest 20 the
state.
Mr.. Opsahl has always been in
terested in the development of
the country, but we fail to see in
what respect Mr.. McCuaig has
been interested in this movement
except it be city or county
politics (?)
Mr.. Opsahl favors a two-cent
passenger rate, and if elected
will work for the establishment
of that rate. He also declares
that a railroad pass will not be
used by him. re-
He will work for the develop
ment of the agricultural interests
of the state, and the encourage
ment of actual settlers. ~.:.~
He is an ardent supporter of
Knute Nelson and will work for
his reelection, believing that
Mr.. Nelson has been in the
national senatorial hall so long
that he has become a valued
member of the United States
senate and is in a position to do
great deal for drainage and for
other state interests. .,
Mr.. Opsahl has been a large
shipper and has been for good
many years interested in freight
rates, and on several occasions
has been instrumental in secur-,
ing reduction on wood, hay and
grain. =.s
In the year 1898 h,was elected
on the drainage board while a
resident of FELTON,, Clay county,
and he personally supervised the
construction Of forty miles of
bitches and twenty miles OF road,
aud a part of this work was done
when the contractors claimed it
could not be done. The roads
aud bitches today tespeak prac-
tical work and the understanding
Mr.. Opsahl has of drainage and
good roads.
Rememb Der that in voting for
Mr.. Opsahl you vote for your
own interests. 49,

Philadelphia, Sept. 15.-The body of
Henry K Wampole, the wealthy Phil
adelphia manufacturer of chemicals
who had been missing for several
days, was found in the East river dur
ing the night. He had undoubtedly

worry over business entanglements.

Good Grain Yields.

Charles Saxerud was in the
city from Maple Ridge last night
and this forenoon on business.
He and Hans Hanson are running
a threshing rig in that township,
but were forced to cease oper-
ations yesterday, on account of
the wet weather. The yields Of
grain in Maple Ridge township
have been very good, the oat crop
averaging forty bushels to the
acre and wheat twenty bushels,
which is certainly q fine showing.

A further outcome of the

The company will move its hard

Markusen, ad joining the present
location on Fourth street, and
the latter firm will move into
excellent quarters. As they
have not yet closed the deal for
q new building, they are not
quite ready to make an an
n )uncement.
The deal between Mr.. Mayo
and Mr.. Swedback has been
under consideration for q couple
of weeks or more, and final
papers were signed Thursday.
Speaking of his new purchase,
Mr.. Mayo explained that his
purpose in buying the Swedback
building, aside from getting hold
OF 9 piece of property which he
believes will rise in value, was to
secure q desirable location for q
drugstore. He was planning on
going into business in the west,
but the San Francisco earthq uake
cured him Of the western fever,
and he has decided to make .
permanent location in Bemidii.

of fixtures and the highest class
stock to be secured, and to run =
neat and attractive store.
While Mr.. Mayo may not be
well known to the recent arrivals
in Bemidji, to those who have
lived here for more than three
years he will be remem bered as
q leading Bemidji druggist.
Three years ago, after having
run q successful business for
Eve years, he sold out.

SCHOOL VII CELEBRATE
Fifteenth ANNIVERSARY
international Correspondence Schools
Of Scranton, Penn, and Students
Plan for October Is.

Students Of the International
Correspondence Schools in and
around Bemidii are much in
terested in the celebration Of the
fifteenth anniversary Of the
schools, which is to be held in
|Scrant,n, Pennsylvania, Oct. Is,
and which it i likely some LEGAL
student will attend.
1t has been nearly fifteen
years since Thomas j. Foster,
then editor ofthe newspaper in
Shenandoah, Pennsylvania, in
troduced method of teaching
through the mails by means Of
special home study text books
and a system Of direction and
correction of students work, the
object of which was to enable
the coal miners of Pennsylvania
to pass the required examination
for mine foreman.
Although the enterprise was
of great interest in mining com.
munities, not even the founder.
then dreamed that his plan was
the creation of a new educational
system that was to turn the
world into a vast class room, and
afford the means by which prac-
tical money earning knowledge
in almost every line could be
carried to the. thousands that
could not give up work or leave
home to secured an education. =.
The International Correspond
ence Schools now have more
than two hundred courses of in.
struction covering almost every
branch, of nearly all the we'll
known trades and professions.
Up to the present time, $1,000
students have elther completed
the courses for which they en-
rolled or substantial portions
there of; 225,OOO other students
hive completed the study of
mathematical, physical or draw
ing subjects. =a-= /.
The widespread practical re-
suits of the work of this great
"home study" university is
demonstrated by the fact that
during the last twelve months
upwards of 1900 reports of in.
creased salary or advancement
in positions have been received
from students. ...4 .s4s#
The many thousands that have
been enabled to change to con-
genial or more remunerative oc-
cupations, or that have been
otherwise benefited by this won
derful system of education,
naturally feel deep sense of
gratitude to the man whose
genius created and developed the
Int irrational Correspondence
schools, and who is still the
active head Of the work. AS a
fitting tribute a great celebra-
ton has been planned for Oct.
is, 1906, the day on which, fifteen
years ago, the first student was
enrolled. Hundreds of I. G. S.
students and many persons o1
national prominence will be in
Scranton on that day.
The day will be taken up will
