That has been Wilson's divergence

When he used to be in a speech
making mood the senator told au
diences in Seattle that "a million
years is as one day and one day Is
as a million years in the United
States senate. The argument was that
term of service counted and prefer
ment came only to men who had been
filling seats in the upper house of
congress.
Senator Ankeny demolished the time
tables when Senator Piles arrived.
In the earlier conferences, Senator
Piles was given the committee assign
ments due a newcomer, while Ankeny
advanced to even better berths than
Senator Foster laid down at the end
of six years service. Later Senator
Ankeny changed places with Senator
Piles, giving the latter a coevted place
on the commerce committee and SHOW
ing him four years ahead Of his time.
When the perennial candidate looked
in at Washington he found that his

jumped over the million year" bar

mighty. Senator Ankeny sloughed off
something more in popularity when
Wilson made the discovery.
After Croker & Co.
When he broke the news of his po-
litical insurrection this morning, ex-
Senator Wilson declared he was out
after Dave Croker, collector of inter-
nal revenue; United States Marshal
George H. Baker and George Stew

fight where 'Rastus had dropped it

Ankeny out of the senate he proposes
to eliminate Croker. Baker and Stew

DR.. D0DDS MAY PRESIDE
OVER A new DISTRICT
Rumored That Slices Are to Be Cut
Off Crookston and Duluth
Districts.

In Methodist circles through
out the north half of the state,
it has been the desire of members
of that denomination that DR..
Dodds, presiding elder of the
Crookston district. in some
manner be retained another four
years. It appears that there is
some doubt as to the doctor
being allowed to remain in this
district.
The Crookston Journal says Of
the matter:
In conversation with Rev.
Satterlee of the local Methodist
church the remark was made
that Bishop Wilson may divide
the Crookston and Duluth Dis
tricts of the Methodist church
and the portions sliced off from
each district made into a new
district over which Rev. Dodds
may preside. This however is
only a surmise. The matter Of
appointing presiding elders lies
solely in the hands of the Bishop.
sSince Rev. Dodds too kcharge
of the Crookston district six
years ago it has been doubled in
membership and in the amount
of revenue annually received. Il
is very unlikely that the services
of such an efficient worker viii.
be lost sight of or not fully ap-
preciated for the reason that his
term of Office expires in this
district. On the contrary it is
highly probable that he will be
assigned to the new district if it
is created. DR.. Dcdds is a con-
scientious ard incessant worker
and during his labors in this
field has made a large circle #
friends who will regret to learn
that he is soon to leave. He has
always taken an active interest
in the local church and has done
much to advance it's interests. .

Government Puts End to Bitter
Struggle Between Rival Cass
Lake Interests.
PROMOTERS OF BENA PLANNING
BRIGHT FUTURE FOR NEW TOWN
"Richards," Rival Settlement for
Government Recognition, Is Left
in the lurch.


The settlers on the townsite of
Bena have won out in their con-
test for the organization of that
place as a townsite, under the
provisions of law allowing the To-
cation of townsites on certain of
the ceded lands of the Chippewa
reservations of Minnesota, and
the promoters of the town will at
once go ahead with the develop
ment of the place as an important
trade center.
Some three years ago, certain
residents of Cass Lake attempted
to organize a town which they
named "Richards," located on
32O acres of land a mile west of
the station at Bena, and nineteen
miles east Of Cass Lake. The
promoters of the town attempted
to have their application for a
townsite granted, but for several
reasons they we're turned down
by the departments at Washing
ton. Later, they secured an
eighty acre tract from G.. c..
Hartley of Duluth, who had pur-
chased it as a 'deceased" Indian
allotment. The buildings which
h I'D been erected at the orieina
"Richards' site were moved to
the new location, and there they
remain, weather beaten and de-
serted, with nothing doing"
toward development of the town
site.
Shortly after the Orchards"
people had st.rted their town,
other residents Of Cass Lake, to-
g ther with people from Walker
aud other points: started town
site at Bona. There was great
rivalry between the factions at
Bena and Richards, rd~when
the Richards pc ,p'e tried to
make proof they met with many
obstacles, with the result that
their town has been. abandoned, :,

City Council Votes Down Ordinance
Requiring Tag and Calling for
a Dog Catcher.
TOO MANY DOGS, BUT TIME IS
NOT OPPORTUNE FOR ACTION
Vote Stands Four to Three-.-Mayor
and City Attorney Favor Ordi-
nance, But Can't Vote.

Il Cne dOSS could only under.
stand, every canine tail would be
wagging today, for the city coun.
Gil last night voted down an or
dinance calling for the licensing
of all dogs in the city and for the
appointment of a dog catcher.
His dogship had a narrow es.
cape, however, for the vote stood
four to three, and even though
several of the aldermen voted
against the ordinance, they ex-
pressed their opinion that the
city is afflicted with too many
dogs and that at a more oppor-
tune time they would favor
stringent dog law.
The ordinance came up last
night for it's third reading. It
called for the payment by each
owner of q dog or dogs of 81 for
each male and 81 for each female
canine, and req uired that each
dog so licensed wear collar and
a tag. The ordinance also pro.
vided for the appoiatment of an
official dog catcher and gave him
power to catch all dogs not
tagged, and to kill them after
certain period, which would give
the owner time to redeem his p t.
Before the vote was taken
President Gould called for an ex-
preston Of opinion, and Mayor
Carter was the first to respond.
He declared himself in favor of
the ordinance. There are too
many dogs in the city, he said,
and some measure ought to be
taken to get rid of a few of the
worthless ones. No owner of q
valuable animal, he was sure,
would object to paying the
license.
Following the mayor, City At
torney Russell spoke in favor of
the proposition, as did also
Alderman Miller.
President Gould and Alderman
Bowser took the other side of the
question, and argued that while
there were doubtless too many
dogs, the ordinance and it's en-
forcement would stir up q great
deal of hard feeling and trouble,
and that the time is hardly ripe
for such a measure. They
thought that the city could get
along for q year or two longer as
it had done in the past, and at q
later day, if it vas thought desir-
able, pass license law
The vote when taken resulted
as follows: Yes, Miller, Smart
and Brinkman; No, Bowser,
Mayer, Kinch and Gould. AL.
dermen McTaggart and Graham
we're absent and did not vote.
The contract for grading those
