MUCH MONEY \
IN CEDAR LANDS
Homes $ 'tl Sells $500
Worth Of Cedar From Three
and One-Half Acres.

A remarkable instance show
ing the value of cedar lands in
Beltrami county is exhibited in
the case of Otto Peterson, who
took homestead seven miles
west of Kelliher last spring. To-
gether with another man, Oscar
Olson, Peterson moved on to the
claim in November and immedi-
ately started the erection of a
house and barn. While complet-
ing the buildings the two men
cleared three and one half acres
of land, burned the brush and all
dead and down trees, and up to
the present time they have sold
500 worth Of cedar posts and
poles that were cut from the
three and one half acres cleared,
besides securing timber for the
erection of the house and barn
from the same plotof ground.

upon which such property
ADULTS, all wood, barrels, boxes,
farm machinery, wagons, sleighs,
or other obstruction, and to re-
move all snow and ice from their
sidewalks within ten days from
and after the pu blication of this
notice. Nothing detracts more
from the appearance of a town or
city than cordwood, boxes, bar
rels ETC., piled in and upon it's
business streets, and sidewalks
in the business district.
Every good citizen should be
interested in doing and seeing
that this is done, as it is to our
mutual benefit to keep the repu-
tation of Bemidji, as a hustling,
thriving town at the forefront.
If the city should be held liable
for any damages to life, limb or
property, caused by the neglect
of property owners to comply
with the ordinances governing
these matters, tits the tax payers
who suffer, and it is out of their
pockets that the money to pay
these damages must come.
[ want it distinctly under
stood, that if these matters are
not attended to and this request
compiled with within the time
mentioned, the ordinances relat-
ing thereto will be rigidly in
forced without fear or favor.

WORK TO START
ON MISSISSIPPI DAM
Erection of Dam Across Father of Waters
East Of Lake Bemidii Will Begin
Tomorrow Morning.

The preliminary work of clear
ing and excavating for the dam
which is to be built across the
Mississippi river four miles east
|of Lake Bemidji will commence
tomorrow morning.
r. A. Ekstadt has taken a con-
tract for the work and a large
crew Of men will be put on i'm
mediately cutting down the
trees and clearing away the OBJ
structions preparatory to- start
ing the actual work of building
the dam.
The plans for the structure
have been approved at Washing
ton, and w. G.. Schroeder, who
owns the site and will build the
dam, is expecting the return Of
the plans daily.
Until these papers are re-
turned the dimensions of the dam
can not be given definitely, but
Mr.. Schroeder states that it will
be about 300 feet in length and
will create a head Of "a feet of
water when completed. The
* ~ IL. Y ~ y
foundation will be made of rock,
cement and piling, and earth will
be filled in between the piling,
thus completing the dam.
Mr.. Schroeder refuses to di-
vulge any information as to
whether or not a pulp mill is to
be erected at the site of the dam, B
but in view of the fact that the
dam is to be erected it is very
probable that power will be fur
nished for some large industry.

MAYOR ORDERS
SUNDAY CLOSING
Saloons Of the City Must Be Kept Closed
on the Sabbath---Keepers Of
Places ''Kick.'

Mayor A. A. Carter this morn
ing notified all saloon men of the
city 32in number to keep their
places of business closed on Sun
day hereafter or be subjected to
afine.
Each saloon man was notified
by the police to appear before
one of the city justices, there to
plead guilty or not guilty to the
charge of violating the city or
dinance relative to the closing of
saloons on Sundays.
The saloon men made their APP
pearance this afternoon before
Judges Pendergast and Skinvik
but only one, Fred M. Dudley,
had paid the fine of IS. 90 imposed
by Judge Pendergast up to a
late hour this afternoon.
Some Of the men agreed to
settle up the matter later but
some positively refused to pay,
stating emphatically to the JUS
tees that it would be necessary
to arrest them before they would
submit to fine. ~
Mayor Carter stated to the
Pioneer that it had come to his
knowledge that the saloons we're
being kept wide open on Sundays
and that in order to live up to
his oath he was compelled to take
this action. He also said that
hereafter the Sunday closing or
dinance of the city would be
rigidly enforced, land that arrests
would follow where violations
occurred.

ITASCA COUNTY
DIVISION WAR
Third Petition for Division
Of the County is
Presented.

S. Paul, March IA third pc
tition for the division of Itasca
county was brought to Secretary
Of Staue Hanson yesterday which
tends to greatly complicate mat
tiers. This last petition would
divide Itasca into four counties,
making three new counties. 1t
proposes to cut the county east
and west on the line between
townships IS and 81, running
about three miles north of
Ripple. This they would call
Garfield county and make Kooch-
iching the county seat. South of
here, between townships So and
|64. they would intersect Itasca
with another line, running about
six miles north of Fife. This
county would be named Glen
WOOD ana 1t would have Ripple
for it's county seat. Then from
the middle of this south bound
airy of Glenwood county another
line is drawn a couple of miles
east of Efie and straight south
to the southern boundary of
ltasca county, slightly east of
Deer River. What is west of
this line, the petitioners would
call Big Fork county and make
Deer River the county seat. The
portion east of that line would
remain Itasca county with Grand
Rapids the county seat as at
present.
The petition was brought in by
r. r. Seaman of Deer River and
was signed by 800 residents of
Itasca county. This will make
the disposition of the county di.
vision very complicated. The
first petition asked for one new
county to be called Koochiching
and having international Falls
for the county seat. This would
probably have been approved
but for the rivalry over the county
seat. The people in the southern
end Of the new county wanted
the county seat closer and for
that reason started another petit
ton calling the. county Forest
and making Big Falls the county
seat. 1t is possible that there
will be a nun Der of more petit.
tions and a lively time is antici-
pated when the petitions are
given hearing March 16.

MYSTERY OF
A RAILROAD
Rainy Lake Road Officials
Refuse to Talk Of
Plans.

This was the answer made to.
day in the offices of the Duluth.
Rainy Lake & Winnipeg road
when information was asked for
conc corning the route the exten-
sion of the line to the border
would follow. whether to Bau-
dette9 or to the point, two and
onerhalf miles from international
Falls, where the Rainy River
Bridge company, recently in
corporated, is to build a bridge
across the Rainy river.
It is the general understand
ing that the contract for the. ex-
tension has already been awarded
to G. J. johnson, the Minneapolis
railroad contractor. 1t is even
reported, son what appears to be
excellent authority, that the con-
tract was signed Monday, al
though the officials of the rail
road company today said the
contract had not yet been let.
Whether it has or not, it is, be-
lieved to be an absolute certainty
that Mr.. Johnson will build the
extension from Ashawa to the
border. Men most directly in
terested have very little to say
on the plans of the railroad com
pany.
The fact that a bridge is to be
constructed across the Rainy
river near international Falls,
and that the incorporators of the
bridge company are the same
men who are behind the Duluth,
Rainy Lake & Winnipeg road,
would seem to indicate that the
line will cross the river into
Canada at that point and join the
Canadian Northern there, giving
a through line from Duluth to
Winnipeg.
On the other hand there have
been reports all along that the
road would build to Baudette,
Mimi, where the Canadian
Northern already has a bridge
across the river. This would re-
quire the laying of more track
for the extension. but would
open a country rich in timber
and agricultural resources.
There is said to be a likelihood
that both extensions will be
built, although it is hardly prob
able that more than one connec-
ton with the Canadian Northern
will be made this year.
The further fact that the rail
road has acquired terminal facil-
tiles near international Falls,
covering quite a large area on the
banks of the Rainy, gives rise to
the belief that the International
Falls line will be the first if not
the only one to be built. Duluth

FORAKER ON RATE LEGISLATION
Comedies That Some Evils Exist in
Connection With Railroads.

Washington, March Senator For
aker of Ohio addressed the senate
during the day on railroad rate legis-
lation. Mr.. Foraker conceded that
some evils exist in connection with
the railroads, but urged that all Of
them could be more effectively met by
amending the Elkins law than by pass
ing the pending bill. He expressed his
regret at differing with the president,
but said he could not see his way
clear to pursue any other course.
He gave a general review of the
history of the railroad development Of
the country and passed to the evils
Of the system, which, he said, are nee
essarily incident to the upbuilding of
so vast an interest. His attitude to.
ward the pending railroad rate bill
was outlined in his first paragraph, in
which he said of the bill:
ut is SO contrary to the spirit Of
our institutions and of such drastic
and revolutionary character that, if
not in it's immediate effect, at least as
precedent, the consequences are
likely to be most unusual and far
reaching"

THE MUSICAL TASTE.

Not all Of us are born with a tai
ent for music and if we are not there
is mighty little use in trying to culti-
vate one. There is still less use in
trying to pretend that you are a
great lover of music when you are not.
Some people seem to think it is a
disgrace not to have a musical ear.
We cannot see it that way. 1t is no
more of disgrace not to have taste
for music than it is not to have a
taste for cucumbers. 1t is too bad !;
you are missing something good in
both cases, but it is no disgrace.
Strange too, the man who does not
like cucumbers is the first to tell of
1T. He rather brags about it. But
the man who can't tell B fiat from
Mezzo soprano, will suffer through
hours of "high grade" music rather
than confess it. The concert given
on Tuesday night was take as far
as being Grand Opera" was con-
cerned. The scenes in costume"
failed to materialize to any notice
able extent, although it is fortunately
true that costumes were worn. The
music rendered by the Italian prima
donna with the Campannina name was
excellent however and the violinist
was par excellence. Had it been
advertised as an operate concert or
recital it would have filled the bill
admirably, as it was our people were
greatly disappointed. 1t was high grade
music. If you did not like it there
is no harm done, but it was high grade
music Just the same.
