Lieutenant O. H. Dockery of
Duluth, who is superintendent
of recruiting stations in this dis
trict for the y. S. army, came
over from Duluth last night to
note how matters were progress
ing at the local station under the
direction of Sergeant Eilek.
The lieutenant is slated for
promotion to a captaincy in the
army, and a Duluth paper says
concerning the matter:
"First Lieutenant o. H. Dock

The proposition to establish
the sixth normal school in this
state is, being widely discussed,
and it is generally understood
that a bill to that end will be iu-
troduced in the present legisla-
ture.. The five normal schools
now estab blished are located as
follows: Duluth, Moorhead, St.
Cloud, Winona and Mankato,
leaving nearly one-half the state
without a local normal school.
Three of our five normal schools
are located in border cities,
viz, Duluth, Moorhead and WI
mona. Mankato IS strictly a
southern Minnesota town. ST..
Cloud is located more than fifty
miles south of the geographical
center of the state, and by the
way is our nearest normal school
by railway.
Bemidji is in the center of this
vast unrepresented territory,
and is easily reached by railroads
from every direction, having two
lines each from the north and
the south and one from each the
east and the west, with many
other branch lines connected
with these. Prospects are also
good for other diagonal roads.
Besides being the geographi-
cal centre and having fine rail
road facilities, Bemidji does not

many vacancies, giving al op.
portunity for others below to
attain higher place.
'Lieutenant Dockery has been
in charge of the Duluth recruit
ing station since Novem ber, 1905,
and his term will end next Nov
ember, when be will return to
his regiment, which is now in
Alaska, unless he is promoted,
in which event he may be sent
to some other regiment. He has
been in the service for eight
years and during this time has
been in Cuba, Hawaii, Philippine
Islands and Alaska.
"The notice for his appearance
before the board may come at
any day, but it is probable that
it will not be until next summer
and may be as late as Novem ber.
Lieutenant Dockery is spending
all his spare time studying for
the examination, which will con-

At the beginning of the year
there were eighteen inmates
and at the close of the year
seventeen, During the entire
year there were ffty-two differ
ent persons at the farm. repre-
senting total of 1854 days.
During the year there was
raised on the farm $50 bushels
of oats; 200 bushels of turnips
300 bushels of potatoes, so
bushels of carrots and Is tons
of corn fodder. The farm also
produced $500 pounds of
dressed pork and 1000 pounds
of dressed beef.
Ten acres of ground have been
cleared of stumps and six acres
of this broke ready for crop.
4O8 cords of wood have been
hauled from the farm to the
court house, representing cash
value of 81, 1924.
A number Of improvements
have been made to the farm
building during the year, among
which were a basement, 36x4O,
and heating plant.
A number of general improve
ments have been made and the
equipments of the farm have
been increased by the purchase
of a garden drill, manure spread
er, spring tooth drag, hay rake
and steam pump.
At present there are on the
farm eleven head eff cattle, two
horses, four hogs and about
fifty chickens. -
There are 28 acres under
cultivation and 70 acres of pas
ture, and Superintendent Phil.
lpbi recommends an additional
twenty acres be cleared, also
that another team be purchased
for the farm. 49,.
Mr.. Phillippi calls, the atten-
tion Of the board to the fact that
there are but 90 acres of timber
that less wood be cut than has
been in the past.
The improvements for the
past year amounted to about
$4,000. >.

Chimney Fire This Morning.

A chimney fire early this
morning at the home of John

caused the turning in of an alarm
of fire and the calling out of the
fire men.
The alarm was turned in to
the central telephone exchange,
and a few moments later an ef-
fort was made to countermand
the alarm, but the phones were
so busy with the main Office that
the operator could not be reached
and the whistle was blown.

THOMAS SHEVLIN WILL
BUILD ROAD TO SPOONER
Will Join the NJ l. at Keiher..This Together With
the International Falls Extension, Will Mean Much
for Bemidji as Wholesale Center

Thomas H. Shevlin, the Mime
sofa lum ber king, announces that
he will build a railroad to the
Rainy river, extending from
Kelliher northward. The new
line will measure fifty-five miles
in length, and work on it will
probably begin this year.
The road will have it's northern
terminus at Spooner and Bau-
dette, two border towns. On
the American side of the river at
this point Mr.. Shevlin has an
immense sawmi]l, employing 900
men. On the Canadian side he
is operating mill employing 500
men. Within the past sixty days
the townsite at the American
mill has been joined to the town
OF Spooner, and plans for con-
Meeting the enlarged town by
rail with the outer world, have
now been perfected. While pri-
marily a road for getting out
logs and lumber, the line will
operate freight and passenger
trains in connection with the
Northern Pacific, which controls
the Minnesota & international.
The development of this piece
of territory will mean much to
Bemidji. Tie country through
which the line will run is excel
lent for agricultural purposes,
and even now is well settled up.
AS soon as what timber as re-
mains is cut away it will be a
prosperous farming, dairying,
and stock-raising district, with
The Bemidji daily pioneer., 1907-01-10

busy towns and the region tribu-
tary to them thickly populated
with progressive people.
Bemidji will be the nearest city
of considerable size to this dis
trict, and can offer good shipping
facilities for handling the whole
sale trade that will develop in
this north country, as result of
the building of the two exten-
sions of the M. & I, and this
city now offers most excellent
advantages for the establishment
here of several wholesale con-
Germs. Being directly connected
with the two border communities
Bemidji will have a great advan-
tage in distance over either the
twin cities or Duluth.
Spooner is in this county about
seventy five miles below Interna-
tional Falls, where both the
Rainy Lake road and the Backus-
Brooks extension of the Mime
sofa & International will have
terminals. The Sheylin road
will thus give a third outlet to
the Rainy River country, and the
stimulus in values there is
already apparent. Some 800
acres of land along the Long
Sault rapids, twenty-five miles
above Baudette, have just been
acquired by unrevealed interests.
In some instances as high as $50
an acre was paid for the land.
The rapids are said to be capable
OF supplying as much power as
the falls at International Falls.
