RUM0RED THAT CR00KST0N
MILL WILL BE MOVED HERE

The Crookston Times of yesterday
contained the following article con-
corning possibility that the Crooks
ton Lumber company will move it's
large sawmill to some other point:
THAT old bug-a-boo which has
come up with regularity every sum-
mer for the past twenty years, viz,
that the Crookston Lumber Com
pany would remove their saw mill
from this city, has come up again
and for several days there has been
a persistent rumor to the effect that
the mill would be taken out this fall
and removed to Bemidji or some
other point.
Naturally, the sawmill people will
make no statement one way or the
other in the matter and whether
there is any truth in this rumor can
not be ascertained at this time.
The reason given in the talk about
the street, for the rumored removal
is that there has been a sharp

advance on the freight rates on saw
logs in the past few days, and that
this advance will make it prohibitive
for the mill to saw at this point
when they have to bring them such
a long distance by rail.
When asked about this advance
this morning one of the most promi-
nent of the local mill officials stated
that while he was not positive that
there had been such an advance in
the rates, he believed that such an
advance had been made,
One of the highest oiicials in the
great Northern offices here was
asked about such raise this morn
ing and stated that so far as he
knew no such raise had been made.
Another reason given for the
removal is that the mill people want
fire protection from the city for their
property across the river. Alder
man Harris stated this morning that
he believed that unless fire protec-

Stick to Your Homestead.

There is no doubt that there are
many portions of the country which
at the present time are practically
unde veloped agriculturally which
have a great future before them,
but do not let the alluring ADVERTISE
ments of such localities turn your
head. Remember that the man who
has written them has something he
wants to sell, and that he may
be just stretching it a little. Go
slow in considering a change of
location. Don't sell the old farm
and rush off to the new location.
Investigate first. Inspect the land
personally, and then don't make the
move until after the sober second
thought. Your Minnesota home.
stead is bound to be a money-maker
for you if you will only stick to it.

The Bagley Independent says of the
movement to hold the affair:
AT meeting of the Bagley Com
mercial Club held Friday night, the
advisability of establishing a mar
ket day was brought before the club
and thoroughly considered. 1t has
been decided to establish market

auctioneer will be provided abso-
lutely free of charge to the farmers,
who will conduct the sale of any
thing the farmers-wish to dispose of.
Other towns along the. line have
adopted this method, and are max
ing it great success in every
respect. Remember, the first market
day will be held on the last day in

business firms to make special prices
on their goods for this particular
day. Farmers, make it a point to

Intensely Loyal to Bemidji.

Knute Roe, of the local general
merchandise firm of Roe & Marku-
sen, is nothing if not intensely loyal
to Bemidji, and he is always resent
ing any inference that this city is
other than a progressive community,
peopled by wide-awake desirable
citizens.
A few days ago a member of a
certain wholesale firm doing bust
ness at Crookston visited Roe &
Markusen, and in course of his con-
versation with Mr.. Roe casually
remarked that Bemidji was not a
good town and that he was terribly
disappointed in the place. Mr.. Roe
promptly closed accounts with the
gentleman and is now doing business
with another house.

favor of extending the fire protec.
ton to that portion of Crookston.'' 2
1t is not among the impossibilities
that the Crookston mill will be
moved to Bemidji, 1t is stated on
what is believed to be good authority
that the Crookston company owns
an excellent mill site on Lake
Bemidji; and that there have been
rumors here for some time that the
company would put in another mill
here. 49,
The company owns alarge amount
of pine that is adjacent to Bemidji,
and it would seem to the lay" man
that, owing to the advance in rail
road rates and the necessity OF
hauling large amounts of pine from
this vicinity to help supply the mill
at Crookston, Bemidji would be- the
proper location for the mill, if it is
moved. 80. ..-..y. .-.,.

IT'S A SMALL FORTUNE
FOR CHIPPEWA INDIANS
Interesting Information in Report Of
William O'Neil, Superintendent of
Reservation Logging

St. Paul, Aug. g.2.-Each member of
the Chippewas in Minnesota within
a few days will receive from the fed
eral government at least $4,000. For
mer State Senator William O'Neil of
Wisconsin, who for some years has
had charge of the timber operations
on ceded lands in Minnesota, was
in St. Paul today.
His headquarters are at Cass Lake
and he came here to file his report
with the local federal authorities
who in return will send it on to Wash
ington.
His report shows that during the
past three years 42O,OOO,OOO feet of
timber has been cut from Indian
lands valued at $3,2OO,OOO. Stand
ing pine on ceded lands that is sold,
totals 25O,OOO,OOO and there is 4OO,-
100000 feet standing and as yet
unsold. There are in Minnesota,
$500 Chippewa Indians; the aggre-
gate value of their ceded lands and
the timber left standing on them is
estimated at $12,OOO,OOO. Adding
the value of the allotted lands to
this, gives wealth of $1,000 for
each of the $500 Indians.

son, which is backward circum-
stance.
There is the best of feeling be-
tween the members of the various
bands of Indians and the agency
office; in fact, there is not the least
bit of friction apparent, and the reds
are contented /. id pursuing the even
tenor of their way Of course, there
is an occasional Indian who thinks
he is heap bad man, but this
is usually traceable to the effects of
indulgence in intoxicating liquors
and the refractory one is afterwards
sorry for his demonstration, which
has never been of a really dangerous
character.
The curse of the Indian race is
the liquor habit. Many an Indian
who is naturally inclined to be in
dustrious and thrifty falls a victim
to drink and never amounts to any
thing; and despite the strongest
endeavors to prevent their downfall,
they get the stuff and are hard
drinkers when they can procure the
liquor.
The band of Pillager Indians,
who have always borne the reputa-
ton of being especially pugnacious,
are among the best and most in
dustrious reds we have. I think
that if they are used all right they
will behave themselves. However,
I have no fear of any trouble among
the Indians. They are all we'll

CHARGED WITH CUTTING
TWO HARNESS TO PIECES
James Fitzgerald Arraigned in Justice
Court This Morning---Case Con.

tinued Ten Days.

James Fitzgerald was arraigned
in justice court this morning before
Justice Slocum, to answer to charge
of want on destruction of property,
for which, if he is proven guilty,
he should receive the full maximum
penalty allowed by law. His case
was continued for ten days, at which
time he will be given a preliminary
hearing.
According to statements that are
fully authenticated, Fitzgerald went
to Pony Lake, where the Donald
Land & Lumber company has exten.
sive interests, for the purpose of
working in the sawmill which the
company owns at that place.
Fitzgerald was intoxicated and
had in his possession bottle of
liquor. He was told by the foreman
in charge of the work at the mill
that he could not go to work for the
company unless he surrendered the
bottle of booze" and got sober.
Fitzgerald became angered, and
according to the witnesses in the
case, he loitered on bridge about
half mile from the stable until
after dark, when he entered the
barn and literally cut to shreds a
double harness and a single harness,
practically new and of the best
quality, and made his escape.
A warrant was issued for the
arrest Of Fitzgerald and he was
arrested at Solway yesterday and
brought to Bemidji by Deputy
Sheriff Arne Solberg.

MlXED-BLOOD FOWL FOR A
NEW SPECIE OF GAME BIRD
Charles Saxrud Experiments With His Chickens and Ducks
and Has Wonderful Results-..An Old Hen Performs
Miracles Hatching Brood .....<-.

A farmer of Beltrami county has
successfully bred new waterfowl
which promises to make it's place in
the front ranks of the game birds
of the state, and which has already
caused considerable embarrassment
to two Bemidji nimrods.
Charles Saxrud owns a farm in
Maple Ridge township, about ff-
teen miles northwest of Bemidji.
Last year, he decided to raise a
flock of ducks, and with that end in
view secured pair of ducks, and
in the nature of things the female
was desirous of Matching out brood
of her own kind, and she was given
an even dozen of nice eggs with
which to begin business. .-,~ ~
The duck sat industriously on
these eggs for five days, when she
was accidentally killed.
Mr.. Saxrud was at his wits end
as to what he should do with that.
setting of ducks eggs. He had an
old bramah hen that had been per-
sistent in setting on doorknobs and
any other old thing that was lying
around loose, and he put her to
work on the ducks eggs.
The eggs finally produced eight
small hairy fowls that caused great
CONSERVATION to the old hen, but
she adopted the whole bunch and
took good care of them until they
happened to get down to the lake
one day. The ducks Immediately
took to the water and the hen raised
a commotion as her adopted young
sters swan about. This was repeated
for several days until Mr.. Saxrud, in
desperation as to how to allay the
concern of the hen, decided to tie
pieces of rubber to her henship's feet,
which would allow her to swim with
her brood. The scheme worked to
perfection, the rubber making a neat
web foot. The brood was raised

and are still a member of Mr.. Sax
rud's flock of fowls. 80.
This year, when the old hen dis
played signs of desiring another
family to look after, he placed
chicken eggs under her. While she
sat, the hen mused continually on
those ducks and the trouble she had
with them, and her stress of mind
evidently affected the hatch, as
when they came out of the shell,
they were the form of a chicken,
with the exception that they were
provided with ducks bill and had
web feet. They were larger than
ducks, but had all their habits.
They at once took to water, and Mr..
Saxrud was again forced to provide
the hen with rubber socks"
The brood developed rapidly and
were soon big, lusty fellows, nearly
as large as full-grown chickens.
One day recently, George Nc
Taggart and Fred w. Rhoda made
trip up in Maple Ridge township for
a hunt, ... @~ -5..- ..-....-
They camped near Saxrud's place,
and while out one afternoon espied
at distance Saxrud's old hen and
her brood swimming along peace
fully in the little lake on the farm.
The hunters were uncertain as to
just what kind of fowls they were,
but finally decided they were swans
and let fly two double-barreled
charges of shot in the bunch. ~,
They rowed out to get the fruits
of their shot, when they discovered
that there was an old hen with
rubber tied around her feet and half
breed ducks. But three of the entire
bunch of chicken-ducks were left
from humiliation, but Saxrud be-
lieves he has enough to start a
brood next summer as the old hen
was, providentially, not hit, and be-
ing of an industrious nature, will
perpetuate her new race of fowls.

John T. Frater, of Onigum, agent
in charge of the Leech Lake, Cass

Oak Indian reservations, spent a
portion of today in the city and left
this afternoon for the Red Lake
Indian Agency, where he had some
official matters to close with Earl
w. Allen, who took charge of the
Red Lake agency after Mr.. Frater
had been relieved of the care of the
affairs at that agency.
Mr.. Frater was accompanied by
Mrs. Frater and John F. Geogolt,
chief clerk at Onigum (the Leech

In speaking of the affairs among
the Leech Lake and other Indians
over which he has charge, Mr..
Frater said:
The grounds about Onigum (the
Leech Lake agency present a de-
serted appearance these days, as far
as agency Indians are concerned, as
nearly every able-bodied buck, ,squaw
and child has taken to the tall
timber and is busily engaged in
collecting the annual crop of blue
berries, which is one of the principal
industries of the reds.
The Indians claim that there is
not so large a crop of berries this
year as is usual, and they give as
one reason for the shortage the fact
that the weather has been very
dry, of late, during the ripening sea-
