The COMMERCIAL CLUB.
Committee Appointed to
See About the Location
Of State Institutions

Inc CommeIcla1 club held q meet.
ing at the club rooms Tuesday even.
ing. which was called BY President
Vasaly by special request. to consider
the matter of securing the state farm
for inebriates and the state training
school for girls. and other matters.
It is understood that the institu.
tions are to be located this summer.
either one of which will require q
quarter section of land. It was
brought to the attention of the club
by the president that the Brainerd
Commercial club had already an
pointed committee to see about tho
securing of the institutions for that
city. and that the Commercial club
of Little Falls should do something
towards the securing of one or both Of
these Institutions for this city.
r. e. Gordon thereupon moved
that the president appoint a com.
mittee for this purpose. the motion
being carried. and the president ap-
pointed the following as memhers:
e. B Buckmsn, I. &. Gordon, j. K.
Martin. f. e. Cawley and L. o.
Vessel.
There are innumerable beautiful
sites around the city for such institu-
tions as these, q few of which were
mentioned by members of the club.
Mention was made by the president
that the advertising pamphlets were
apt to be received most any time
now, 40 the final proof had been re-
ceived and approved last week.
The next matter to be brought up
was that of the Pierz road, and in
formation on this matter was given
by F. E. Cawley ard DR.. Meyer. It
was brought out that there was still
500 to be expended on this road but
thai as those who had the job of FIX
ing this road had not completed it;
they never were paid in full and it
was thought that with another 500
the road could be fixed up in excellent
! shape.
The club stand for the expense of
building a split log drag to be used by
the road committee for dragging the
road to Pierz, to give this kind of
road machine test.
On mention being made of rushing
the paving of FIRST street. John Ver-
tin said that petition had been a.
ready signed and that most likely it
would be fled with the clerk immedl.
ately.
A little confah then took place be-
tween some of the members of the
club, concerning $500 left in the treas
ury for the street fair. Some of them
thought it could be used for other
purposes than street fair but most of
them were of the opinion that it could
not. The meeting was then adjourned.
The president has appointed the fol-
lowing committees.
