DOUGLASS Lumber Co.'s Lath Mill Is
Using All Kinds of Bolts
for Latin.
MILL HAS CAPACITY OF $4,000
LATH IN RUN OF TEN HOURS
Company Owns Thirteen-Acre Tract.
and Mill Is Equipped With
Latest Machinery.

The lath mill which was built
in this city during the past win
ter by the Douglass Lum Der
company, is now running to it's
fullest capacity, and the demand
for lath is such throughout the
state that orders are ahead of
the output of the mill.
The mill is located on the point
which projects into the northeast
end of Lake Irwin, and the M.
r. l.. & M. Railway company has
extended it's tracks to the mill
yards, giving excellent facilities
for shipping the product of the
plant.
The mill and the accessory
buildings are in the middle of a
thirteen acre tract of land which
the Douglass company owns, Civ
ing ample room for yards and
the handling of lath aad bolts for
the mill. There is also a dry
kiln for drying the lath. In the
building where the lath are man
ufactured there is installed the
very latest machinery, including
an automatic splitter, seven
saw bolter, foursaW lath ma
chine, a trimmer and other ne
cessary machinery. The power
for running the plant is furnished
by a 1OO-horsepower boiler and
engine.
The mill is proving a boon to
the 'sjack-pine farmers in the
vicinity of Bemidji, affording
them an opportunity to dispose
of their small tim Der to good
advantage as the mill uses in
making the lath, Norway, white,
jack-p pine, and balsalm, and in
fact, most any kind of tim Der,
except popple and hardwood.
The capacity of the Douglass
mill is $4,000 completed lath in
in every run Of ten hours.

James Brennan and Family of Interna-
tionaI Falls Had Their Fill of the
Landsharks' ''Heaven."
"LAND OF 'GOLD.BRICKERS' AND
65-BEL0W WINTER WEATHER"
Brennan Is Glad to Get Back to Good
Old Minnesota" and Will Re-
main Here.

The Pioneer has, from time to
time, commented on the inadvis-
ability of good American citizens
rushing off to the Canadian
northwest in the mad chase of
the rainbow of the "Almighty
Dollar of our Daddies," as it is
glowingly set forth by dealers
in Canadian lands.
The following article, taken
from the Border Budget (pub.
lished at Koochiching) is the
actual experience of resident
of Koochiching who got in the
Canadian whirlwind and reared
the usual result:
"Chas. Brennan and family ar
rived here Saturday from Ed
monton, Alberta. Mr. Brennan
will be remem bered as being one
of the gentlemen who came here
last spring with John Harmon,
of Northome.
Immediately after his visit
here he moved to Western Cana
da. After visiting all the pro-
missing towns and much adver-
tised sections, he settled in Ed
monton as being the proper
place for a man who was seek
ing the land of milk and honey,
with untold treasures as a side
issue.
"He says that Edmonton is on
the boom, that city property is
multiplying in value every week
and that money is very free. The
whole of northwest Canada is
booming in proportion. The gov
ernment, aided by the railroads
and land spectators have worked
up enthusiasm to the fever pitch.
They are rushing in American,
English and eastern Canadian
settlers by the train load, and
that a stampede is taking place
to secure land.
Every conceivable commodity
has advanced incorporation to the
land values and as soon as the
ready cash Of the settlers is gone
there is bound to be a crash.
The country is simply over
doomed.
Mr.. Brennan reports that the
thermometer registered as low
as 65 degrees in Edmonton this
winter and that 45 degrees be-
low was a popular register. The
snow was three and four feet
deep and as a result thousands
of head of stock starved.
"He also says that that coun-
try will never gain reputation
as health resort. Rheumatism,
which kept both Mr.. Brennan
and his wife in the throes of
misery during their residence
there, is as common as the stom-
ach ache, while typhoid fever
prevents the towns from becom-
ing over populated.
'Mr. Brennan says that one of
the popular industries that is
fiourishing throughout that sec.
tion is the fleeing of the scions
of English nobility. These re-
mlttance men, from bloody
England are great plupgers and
will take a flyer in anything from
a peanut stand to a cave of gold
bricks, and that that section is
infested with wise ones who
make a specially of catering to
their demands. Mr.. Brennan
sees many good points in west
ern Canada, but as a whole it's
back to good, old Minnesota for
him. He has located in Fran.
sons addition and intends to
prosper in proportion with a
good, substantial town and coun-
try"

DUE TO TIGHT MONEY.
Cause of the Pope Failure Is Given to
the Public.

Hartford. Conn. Aug. 15.-The fail
ure of the Pope Manufacturing COM
pany. which was announced yester-
day caused one of the biggest sur
prises that this city has known, but it
is not thought that the big industry
will be affected by the action of the
court. The proba bilities are, accord
ing to Receiver Albert t. Pope, that
the business will be continued. Mr..
Pope stated that the company en-
ploys in all about 1000 hands in its
various plants. He said that the COM
pany has ample assets to meet the
claims against 1t and that the only
reason action was taken was to protect
the creditors and stockholders.
When asked to mako a statement
regarding the financial condition of
the company. Mr.. Pope said it was en-
tirely too early to do so. The present
condition of the money market said
Mr.. Pope, was responsible for the step
taken, the banks refusing to make
further loans to the company. The
pressing of a claim by the McManus-
Kelly company of Toledo fastened the
proceedings. On September l the
hearing for the confirmation of the
appointment of the temporary receiv-
er will be held. Mr.. Pope's bonds are
fixed at 100000 and he is authorized
to borrow to the extent of $4,000 to
continue the business.
