ITS TRACK AND ROADBED
Track Is Being BaIlasted From North
ONE to Big FaIIs.--Ditcher
Being Used.

The M. & I. Railway is making
extensive improvements to its
road bed in the country north
from Northome to Big Falls, and
has a large crew of men and a
gravel train hauling sand for
ballasting purposes. The sand
is taken from the gravel pit near
Gemmell, where a steam shovel
is digging up the earth in large
chunks.
The company has also pur-
chased a new machine called a
"ditcher,' which will be used to
widen the bitches at the side of
the track along the right of way.
The ballasting Of the track and
strengthening Of the road bed is
being made now so as to be in
readiness for the making Of good
time by the company's through
trains, when the Big Falls-Inter-
national Falls extension is COM
pleted, which it is expected will
be early in July.

PRAIRIE LEAGUE SEEMS
TO HAVE DIED A-BORNIN'
Apparently Impossible to Form the Proposed Baseball
Organization.-Local Fans Must Be Content
with Amateur Ball.
From present indications, the

From present indications, the
"Pralrie League" which gave
promise: at one time in the early
spring, of developing into some
thing material in the baseball
line, has ''died a--'bornin. Be
midi and a few other towns that
were originally in the agreement
to form the league, raised sub.
stantial sums for the mainten-
ance of teams in their communi-
ties, and were prepared TO go
ahead with the formation of the
league. When the time came
for the final meeting to perfect
the plans and arrange a sche-
dule, the Grand Forks people
failed to materialize, and have
ever since maintained silence on
the proposition of the league.
Efforts have been made from
time to time to inject the elixir
of life into the "F'orx" bunch, but
without avail.
1t now appears that Bemidji
will have no team, of any nature,
this season. Several of the
players who were members OF
last years team, and who have
made their homes in this city,
are leaving for other parts and
have all got good berths for the
season. Notwithstanding the
fact that we have a frst.class
downtown ball park, this city
will probably see no good ball
this year, unless 1t is furnished
by outside teams. The local
''fans" will have to do with some
amateur games Of more or less
interest.

POSSIBLE TANGLE in THE
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT LAW
Thought That Poor Language Used in Law May Prove
Lcophole for Hunters.-.T Thought That One Sentence
May Nullify License Requirement.

international Falls Border
Budget: Bad English that may
cause some worry for the state
game and fish mission has
been found in the general game
and fish bill which passed the
legislature the last night of the
session.
Section 81, referring to the
hunters license, says: "Every
resident of this state over
twentyone years of age is pro-
hibited from hunting, taking Or
killing any game bird or game
animal, unless he shall have first
procured a license therefore from
the county auditor of the county
in which he is a resident. Pro-
vided, however, that this shall
not apply to any resident of said
county,"
Literally construed the last
sentence would nullify the license
requirement, as every man is
supposed to be resident of the
county in which he resides. The
sentence was added the last
night of the session and was in
tended to restore the provision
of the 1905 law, which required a
license of every person hunting
outside his own county. The
bill passed both houses with the
clause requiring a license Of
every person who wanted to
hunt, whether it be on his own
farm or in the opposite end Of the
state. Then the house recalled
the bill and inserted the blind
clause.

out there for the purpose of over
seeing the sowing OF about 200
acres of his land with wheat.
He found snow on the ground
in many places, and the weather
was so cold that he was com
PEELED to abandon his ittention
of putting in crop until the
weather moderates considera bly,
and takes the frost from the
ground. Mr.. Anderson expects
to be able to put in about 200
acres this season, but is in no
wise certain, on account Of the
frigidity of the atmosphere out
there. ...~

Advice to Correspondents.

HNsi0S " VOVslSoPOliNVuSos
The following, taken from the
Hutchinson Leader, is pertinent
as to what a newspaper editor
desires from correspondents in
the matter of news from their
locality, and might not be taken
amiss by correspondents of the
Pioneer:
County correspondents ought
to write news of Importance;
about things that are of interest
to all. No use saying that some
fellow hauled a load of hay, or
that some young man went to
see a certain young lady. Nor
does it matter that Mrs. Jones
borrowed a dozen eggs from Mrs.
jerks, or that one neighbor Wis
tied another if they live in the
same neighborhood. Write up
accidents, marriages, deaths,
births, visits from abroad or
about your people going a dis
tance to see somebody. Don't
tell or talk about boys and girls
calling on each other; that's
their business, unless they get
into same escapade that the pub
lie ought to know about. News
Of the condition Of the crops in
your vicinity, Of new buildings
going up, birthday and wedding
anniversaries are good. Cut out
party gossip, dig at your neigh
bors and unpaid advertising.
Think, and then write news. IF
there is no news don't write" !"

Frank H. Daniels and his big
stock company will open a three
nights engagement at the City
Opera house Thursday, May %,
in "Neath Southern Skies"
Ladies free opening night when
accompanied by paid SOC ticket.
The Crookston Times says of
the company:
''The Frank Fl. Daniels Stock
Company opened their weeks
engagement at the Crookston
Opera House to fair sized audi
ence considering the very dis
agreeable weather. The bill
presented last night was Ade-
laide Thurston's s celebrated play
-"At Cozy Corners and the
performance met with the hearty
approval of those present, the
characters were all we'll taken,
the specialties were good, and
the company proved themselves
to be far above the average re-
pertoire organization, in fact,
everyone seemed to be more
than pleased, and the comments
heard on the street today are un-
animous in pronouncing it the
best company of the kind seen
in Crookston for many years.
"The bill for tonight will be
"The Partisan Princess" and if
the weather will permit, we
predict big houses for tonigh,
and the remainder of the week.

be given try-out by the Hough-
ton team of the Northern Copper
Country league. He has had

The 1905 law, of which the
1907 law is an amendment, says
in section "a:
"Every resident of this state
is prohibited from hunting, TAX
ing or killing any game bird or
game animal, unless he shall
have first procured a license
therefore from the county audi
tor of the county in which he re-
sides; except that any citizen of
this state may hunt, take or kill
any of the game birds mentioned
in this chapter in the county of
which he is a bona fde resident
without having a license to so
hunt"
The game and fish com mission
will go ahead collecting license
money and prosecuting those
that hunt outside of their home
county without a license, on the
assumption that this is the law
and if any one wants to try the
question he will have chance to
do so. The intent of the legis-
lature was clear and it is the
general practice of the courts to
construe laws according to their
intent when the intent is clear
and the wording not.
Carlos Avery, executive agent
of the Game and Fish commits
sion, has been written to relative
to the above, and the Pioneer
hopes to be able to publish an
explanation from him concerning
the possible sconfiction of the
wording of the law mentioned.
