the registration was 257, and

BODIES aboutas much ill for John
son as it does for Cole, or for
Cole as it does for johnson.
Under normal conditions the
stay-at homes are mostly repub-
licans, but in this election, where
so much of the johnson strength
is found in the republican ranks,
the "pikers" are just as likely to
be Johnson voters as Cole voters.
There is little question but
that the republican candidate
will carry the city and the
county, although there are q few
who expect johnson to get q
bare plurality. There are many
who expect the Cole vote in the
county to fall behind the Dunn
vote of two years ago, these
prophets placing the Johnson
gain at from 200 to 300. In 1904
Dunn secured 1912 votes in Bel.

Today decides it, and Bemidji,
in q humble way, has been doing
her share.
There can be little doubt but
that her share has been humble,
for the voting in this city has
been lighter this election than
it has been for years. Compared
with tho general election of two
years ago or with the city con-
test of a year ago last April, the
interest today has been not un
like that displayed at the even
ing service when the pastor
reaches his ''6fthly" or sixth
ly.''
There has been little or no
electioneering on the streets, and
political disputes and wrangles
have been almost unheard Of.
Up to between 1870 and o'clock,
when a Pioneer representative
made the rounds, the voting in
the different wards was running
very light, giving little promise
of equalling the registration, by
from a half to a third. And the
registration can hardly be called
the full voting strength of the
different wards. e
In the first ward there were
registered on the books some
1853 names, exclusive of the
women, and of these but f fly five
had voted. No women had voted,
and in fact, no women had voted
in any of the wards. In the
Second ward out of a total regis

THIRTY CAMPS TO run
NEAR kELLIHER THIS YEAR
Nearly 100 Million Feet Of Timber
Will Be Cut During the
Winter.

Kelliher, Nov. 6.-The logging
season in the vicinity of Kelliher
promises more extensive oper-
ations than ever before at
tempted, and the amount of pine
and cedar that will be ''put in''
will be much greater than in
any former year. In all, some
thirty camps will be operated IN
the immediate vicinity of Kelli-
her, and these will employ in the
neighborhood of $500 men dur
ing the entire coming winter.
4: 3 White, the pioneer logger
for the Crookston Lum Der com.
pany, will operate five logging
and three cedar camps, and will
lard over 30,00O,OOO feet of pine,
besides many thousand cedar
poles and posts.
J. A. Irvine, the Grand Forks
Lumber company, the G. A.
Smith Lum Der company and the
Crookston Lumber company will
establish camps in different sec.
tions of the country and will log
in the neighborhood of 25, 600, coo
feet of pine, while numerous sub
contractors will also put in large
quantities Of pine. In all, nearly
1OO, ,O0O, 600 feet of tamarac, pine,
etc, will be logged.
The Ross & Ross Cedar CON-
pany and the Beltrami Cedar &
Land company will each have I've
cedar camps, and numerous
smaller contractors and jobbers
will put in the immense amount
of timber which in quantity will
exceed the amount logged in any
forme- year. While the total to
be logged is enormous, yet the
statement is made by cruisers
that not one-tenth Of the available
Timber in the immediate vicinity
of Kelliher will be cut this
se lsor.

and that the lodge may be insti-
ktuted, at ti'ae to be determined
later by the local Elks and the
district deputy, ". S. McCor.
mick of Duluth.
Just what the date of installa-
ton will be has not been de-
termined, but it will probably be
in the near future. The number
of the lodge will be 1862, and it's
jurisdiction will include consider
able nearby territory, such as
Grand Rapids, Cass Lake,
Walker, Akeley, Fosston, Bag
ley, and all the country north to
the Canadian line.
The local chapter will start out
with a mem bership of over fifty,
some twenty-five Elks having
agreed to put in their demits,
and about twenty eight "fawns''
being on the list. This is a most
excellent start, and the Bemidji
lodge should grow into one of the
strongest branches of the B. p.
10. E. in the state.
The installation will be in
charge Of w. S. Mccormick, and
the work will be done by the
Crookston chapter, which is the
nearest Elk lodge to this city,
and in whose jurisdiction Bemidji
has always belonged.
The work toward the securing
of a local B. P. 0. b. lodge began
about year ago, and has been
carried on INCREASINGLY since.

PARTY OF 100 SURPRISES
PASTOR AT HIS HOME
Rev. Mr.. Peterson, Who Leaves Soon,
Remembered by His Con-
gregation.

Rev. p. NJ. Peterson, pastor Of
the local Norwegian Lutheran
church, who leaves next week
for Bagley, was given q pleasant
surprise party last night at his
home on Minnesota avenue by
about 100 of the members of his
congregation.
The crowd gathered early and
the party was a complete sur
prise on the Pettersons. The
pastor was not at home, being
away at Nary, and in fact he did
not arrive until II O'Clock, when
the delayed M. & I. train came
in.
The crowd had telephoned the
depot and had been told that the
train would not arrive in all prob
ability until after midnight, and
when the Rev. Mr.. Peterson
walked in at about II, his ap-
pearance was as much of a sur
prise on the crowd as the party
was on him and his good wife.
The evening was passed pleas
antly with songs and conversa-
tion, and after Mr. Peterson ar
rived, John Wilmann, acting as
spokesman for the crowd, made
a neat little speech of apprecia-
tion of the pastors work in the
past and of regret at his ap-
preaching departure. Mr.. Pet
terson responded in a speech full
of feeling.
Before leaving, the party
presented Mr.. and Mrs. PETER
son with a handsome present of
silverware.

in the same direction. The bid price
on Emerald suddenly jumped to nearly
twice what it has been quoted AT re-
Gently, while holders were demanding
81 a share for it. Developments in this
ground recently have been of an en-
couraging nature, but IT is hardly
likely that the price would have been
jumped UP so suddenly unless there was
something more in the air than a ia
vOrable report from the mine.
Another thing: If the country adjoin-
ing the Observation-Disclosures on the south
is considered so desirable by the big
operators mentioned, how about the
Grand Central, Victoria and Eagle &
Blue Bell, which lie along the eastern
boundaries of the Observation-Disclosures?
Where will they come in? Mr.. Heinze
and his crowd are already in possession
of the Eagle e. Blue Bell, and, with the
Grand Central and Victoria taken over
by Newhouse and Heinze, there would
be an opportunity Of rounding out a
production, actual and prospective, that
would just about eclipse anything in
the district. Neither NewhouSe nor
Heinze are noted for baking at Obsta-
cles, great or small, so stranger things
might happen than to hear, before long,
that these powerful operators were in
possession of all the territory outlined.
Putting the different scraps of in
formation that it has been possible to
gather into sequential form, it looks as
though one of the greatest deals the
camp of Tintic was ever involved in is
being rounded out And it looks as
though the Emerald had just been
counted in.

IN FROM DEEP CREEK.
Pole Star Is Examined for John M.

James w Neill. the mining engineer.
and NJ. A. Daugherty came in from the
Deep Creek country yesterday morning.
They went in from the Ely side and took
in considerable of the mining country en-
route Mr.. Neill went in specially TO
make an examination of the Pole Star
property for John NJ. Daugherty of Oma-
ha who is understood TO be interested
with his brother. NJ. A. Daugherty, in
the bond which the latter is exercising on
the Pole Star and other ground in the

Engineer Neill while declining to dis
cuss the business that had taken him into
the country, stated that great changes
had taken place in the district since he
was last there, six years ago. The Gold
Hill properties of the Western Utah COM
pany, he said, had been converted into a
splendid mine, and that there was many
other evidences of thrift and telling de-
velopment work, all the way from Clifton
through to the KinSley district, on the
Nevada side of the line. He believes that
the country west of the desert will now
come rapidly TO the front. as the Western
Pacific will make it much easier to get

NEWHOUSE-HEINzE
IN T|NTIC CAMP
These Are the Men Who Are
Mailing Territory South OF
the Centennial-Eureka.
DEVELOPMENTS AT 0DIN
ORE CUT ON NEW LEVEL OF
SCOTTISH CHIEF.
DEVELOPMENTS AT 0DIN

From a trustworthy source it was
learned yesterday that the mysterious
combination that is taking hold of the
Annandale, Opex and other properties
in the Tintic district, south of the
United States company's Centennial
Eureka, consists of Samuel Newhouse
and T. Augustus HeinZe. An effort to
get Mr.. Newhouse to acknowledge the
corn resulted in failure, as he declined
fatty to be interviewed on the subject.
With Samuel Newhouse and F. A.
Heinze tearing the ground open at Tin
tic, it Is safe to say that that camp
will get such shaking up as 1t has
never had in the past. Both are men
who do things. and both are men noted
for Impotence when it comes to wait
ing for results. That being true, it is
safe to say that the triple-compartment
shaft on the Annandale will be sunk
with a speed limited only by the ca
pacity of men and machinery to do.
There are some individual claims
lying between the Annandale and the
Opex, which is thanked on the east by
the Emerald company's ground and
on the west by the South Eureka, and
while nothing has been given out on
the subject. there is a suspicion that
probably all OF this territory is headed

DEVELOPMENT At THE OD|N
Park City Property Is on Verge Of
Making a Big Mine.

Judge w. I. Snyder returned from a
trip to Park City Sunday night, after
having spent a day at the Odin COM
pany's property. which TANKS the Key
stone on the west and south. The main
tunnel, he reports, has now attained a
length of some 740 feet. The Odin and
Columbus veins have now both been
passed through and another 200 feet
will carry the face of the tunnel into
the old Judge vein, which runs out of
the southerly end lines of the Key
stone company's old Judge claim into
the Marie claim of the Odin company.
Naturalization is already appearing in
the bedding planes reaching out from
the Old Judge ledge, and the manage
ment expects to be walking into ore at
almost any time This vein in surface
workings carries exceedingly rich sill
ver-lead ores, as does also the Marie
vein, which parallels it farther to the
east.
The Columbus vein, Judge Snyder
says, did not show anything senSa-
tional. A porphyry dixie came up in
the ledge, and, while good mineraliza-
ton was found on both walls, it will
not be prospected for the present. In
the Odin vein, which has width of
sixty feet on the surface, and the mass
Of the ledge matter of which will aver
age 3 per cent copper and some silver
and gold, with rich streaks running
through it, is to be prospected at depth.
With that purpose Wine is now being
sunk, and the plan is to go down 200
feet, anyhow, as there is any amount
of ore in the better StreakS on the tun-
mel level that will run 10 to 20 per cent
copper, with fair values in silver, lead
and gold. A donkey hoist will be in
stalled at the mouth of the winze
shortly, and when that has been placed
rapid progress will be made in sink
ing. The Odin vein is counted upon to
make one of the biggest and best cop
per propositions in the Park City re-
gion, while the lodges now being ap-
preached by the tunnel have all the
carmarks of making separate mines in
themselves

which the property presents. The ore
bodies on the 300 level are all that they
have been pictured TO be and the ore that
is being taken out for shipment is GER
tainly fine looking stuff. Another thing.
Down on the 500-foot level they are just
getting into another fine shoot of ore,
which is probably continuation of that

NEW TESTING METHODS.
Salt Lake Now Offers Better Faciii-
ties Than Any Other Place.

Not even in the days of the Charles
Buffers companyS operations in this city
was II possible for a man or company
seeking method for the treatment of ore
to find works such as Salt Lake now
boasts For nearly a month the General
Engineering company has had its new
building completed and equipped for bust
Eess and once mining men of this region
understand what they are prepared to do
they will not rush off to Denver, st.
LOUIS. Kansas City or Chicago to have
the local concern trial.
The plant is not only equipped with
complete devices for making tests On
small quantities of ore, but regulation
there and ready to make runs on any
amount of ore up to ten tons or more.
Crushing machinery, jigs. screens, classi-
fierS. settling tanks, concentrating tables,
sinners, everything, in fact, necessary TO
conduct commercial tests are found in
the equipment of the plant while j. NJ.
Callow. the ore dressing authority. who is
in charge of the works. is surrounded by
a corps of assistants all expert in the
places they fill.
Within the last week the company I'M
Gertook TO solve the problem of success
fully treating ores from Colorado mine
that four or five other testing works in
the country had tackled and failed to get
results that meant profit to the mine
owners. Where none of the others could
show where the ore could be treated al
better than $125 profit, Mr.. Callow demon
stIated that $3.50 a ton could easily be
made on the rock. Yesterday a ten-ton
run on Colorado gold ore was being made
and within a few hours the owners of
the property will know just what they
can do with il. Ore from Mexico. Mon
tana and other places is now here wait
ing to be tested.
Salt Lake will outstrip Denver in this
line of enterprise and that means mat the
day is close at hand when this city Will
Outrank Denver as a market for all kinds
OF milling machinery, as those who learn
here what is needed in the way of equip
ment will naturally want to buy it here,
also.
