Forest fires, which have been burn

in Hubbard county were sweeping on
that city, famed by a heavy wind
from the south until clouds of smoke
rolled over the Lake. At one time the
smoke was 50 heavy south of the city

the fire would reach the city.
Telephone messages from farmers

and several citizens drove to the Hub.
bard county line to note what dam.
age there was to the city. A fire was
discovered six miles west Of Bemidji
which gained much Roadway.
Crowds of men were secured and
rushed out to fight the fire south OF
town.
A. G. Rutledge telephoned Governor
Johnson for permission to call out
Company K of Bemidji to assist in pa
trolling the fire. The company was
ordered out and gotten ready to await
orders from Captain Otto, who also
drove out in the timber to look over
the fire line. ...-...s
At 4:15 in the afternoon when the
bsmoke was rolling heavenward to the
west and south of the city heavy
rainfall began which lasted half an
hour, thoroughly wetting the ground
for five miles around. The rain has
undoubtedly checked the advance OF
the fire, at least for the present.

ALONG THE NORTH SHORE
Grand Maras and Other Towns Con-
sdered Safe.

A heavy rain has fallen at Grand
Marais, on the north shore, extending
westward from there fifteen or twenty
forest fires are held in check as re-
suit of the storm and Grand Marais,
Chicago Bay and other north shore
settlements that have thus far es-
capped the flames are considered safe.
The steamer America has arrived
at Duluth from north shore points,
bringing this intelligence and the
further information that Mr.. Mon
ker and the seven Indians who
went with him to the assistance of the
settlers north of Grand Marais are
home again safe and sound. Shortly
after they left the north shore town
their retreat was cut off by the flames
and it was feared they might have
persisted. An avenue of escape was
left open to them to the northward,
however, and they got away from the
fire without much diff Guilty.
The America brought in only a very
few refugees. 1t is believed the. set

all of those burned out intend to start

little outside assistance they will be

There is still considerable sickness
among some of the children, but con-
ditions are rapidly getting better in
this respect. The situation is now well
in hand.
Sheriff Carhart has been in close
touch with the situation from the
start. He expresses the belief that
there is now no further danger The

After contrasting Mr.. Bryan's de-

proceeds to declare that Governor

unworthy of any position in public life.
