Sometimes as high as six or

Recently Calvin Cassiday of this
city shot wolf on Washington

From neighboring counties also
comes the report that wolves are
numerous and bold. In Douglas
county one man trapped and
shot q wolves in one week. The

Hayward had a fierce battle with
a pack of wolves about two miles

A Very Enthusiastic Meeting. --Election of
Officers, Etc.

One OF the most enthusiastic
meeting of business men ever
held IN the city was that Of the
Commercial Club on Monday
night. A large mum Der Of the
memb ers were present and an
interest presaging good was
manifest.
The annual election OF officers
was the most important business
to be transacted and the contest
proved to be interesting and
spirited.
There was a disposition, and
well taken, that the old officers
who had served so efficiently
during the first year of the club
should be elected. The officers
themselves, President Sprag ue
and Secretary Lamoreaux insist
ed that the honors should be
passed around and that someone
else should accept the respon-
sibllitleS of the positions for the
coming year. The members of
the club would not hear of Mr..
Sprague retiring. Mr., Lamor-

would not accept.
The following officers and
directors were elected for the

1t is quite generally known
throughout this section of the
state that A. NJ. Greeley, editor
of the Big Fork Compass, will be
a candidate for the state legis-
lature next fall. If the people Of
Itasca county have become ac-
quainted with Mr.. Greeley, there
is practically no doubt Of his
election, as Greeley has a faculty
of counting his friends by his
acquaintances and his best
friends by his acquaintances of
the longest period of time. He is
a writer of more than ordinary
ability and during his stay at
Ripple has, through the columns
of his Big Fork Compass, done
more, perhaps, than any other
one man to bring in settlers and
develop the country about him.
He is an excellent speaker and
will make himself heard when he
is elected to the legislature. His
friends in Bemidji wish him I'M
bounded success.

the larger part of the land) was
of secondary consideration. In
order to further the project, a
congressional junket was taken
to Cass Lake and the country adj
jacent thereto. The mem bers of
the party Wined and dined them
selves and when they reached
Cass Lake they went over to Star
island, dedicated the island as
Cooper" island. in honor of the
promoter of the park scheme,
and also named the small lake in
the middle of the island as 81 AXE
Helen, = in honor of the daughter
of Congressman Joe Cannon who
was a, member of the party.
|Strenuous efforts were made,
after the trip, to have the entire
reservation set aside as great
national park, but when the Nor
ris Chippewa bill was passed the
park people had to be content
with about 100000 acres, nom
lnally as a forest reserve, for ex-
perimental purposes by the gov
|ernment forest officials.
There has been much demand
for the lands (which are tied up
in a forest reserve) on the part
of intending settlers. and these
people are not at all retarded in
their desires by the declarations
of White, ct al, that the land is un-
st for agricultural purposes. It
would be much better to have the
lana peopled with industrious
farmers than be the home of ex-
periments of doubtful value, the
results of which will not be mani
fest until the third or fourth
generation; more especially as
the state, under the reserve re-
glme, would never receive a cent
in taxes or other revenue.
It is doubtful if the proposed
trip of the congressman and the.
president and his cabinet would
be OF any peouniary benefit to
anyone living In this country, as.
those people invariably travel in
special trains: where everything
is furnished, even to the drinks
which are partaken Of so liber-
ally. $50

Br'er Bernard will, undoubtedly.
do considerable good, at Wash

he is also taking a very active

Colonel Cooper's Scheme.

| ELSEWHERE, the Pioneer re-
produces a copy of a letter
written by John S. Cooper, an
attorney of Chicago, who has had
much to do with formulating and
putting into existance the pro-
posed national forest reserve
that now surrounds the village
of Cass Lake like Chinese wall
Mr.. Cooper, who has been in
numbered with the the title of
Colonel, ''still holds tenaciously
to his original scheme of at
tempting to make of nearly the
whole of the north half Of the
great North Star states national
forest reserve, or park, where
the city folk can desport them
selves and the forestry crank
can experiment to his heart
content, at the expense of Uncle
Sam; while the state would lose
all chance TO obtain a splendid
country that would eventually be
a thriving farming community,
enriching the state exchequer
with taxes and adding to the
population and wealth of the
commonwealth. When the
Indians coded this land which is
now em braced within the con
fines Of the forest reserve, they
had no intention whatever of
letting it go for that purpose;
and, as no provision whatever
has yet been made to reimburse
the Indians for their land, it
looks considerably like a bunco
game for "Poor Lo." Prior to
the advent of Secretary Hitch
cock to the interior department.,
it was given out at that depart
ment that these lands would
speedily be opened to settlement,
hence the advent Of the people of
Cass Lake who are now residents
there; and they have been lead a
precarious existence, waiting for
the release of the lands. They
are surrounded by a tract of
land that is absolutely worthless
to the community, unless it is
thrown open to settlement, and
as the state is to be deprived of
land that should be hers by right
OF settlement and occupancy of
| her citizens, it is as much the
interest of any citizen of the
state as the Cass Lake people
that the land should revert to
the government and be throw
open to settlement. The junket
of the presidential party and
congressman, as proposed by
Colonel Cooper, might be sof
some benefit as an outing, but
the practical results to be de-
rived therefrom are largely
problematical.

Thin Blood Makes

But You Can Enrich the Blood and
Send New Vigor Through the Sys-
tenn by Using DR.. A. w. Chase's
Nerve Pills.

Every nerve and every muscle of the
body depends on the blood for nourish-
ment. Thin, watery blood makes weak
nerves and flabby muscles. The heart
fails in its work of forcing blood
through the body; the lungs, the stom-
ach, the liver, kidneys and bowels all
do their work in an imperfect way, and
you drag about weak, tired and niser-
able.
The use of DR.. A. w. Chase's Nerve
Pills make a radical change in every
human system that is starved and Inn
poverished for want of rich, pure and
