BUILD NEW
SCHOOL HOUSE
Is Decision of Board if Voters
Favor Bonds

The school board met last evening
and besides transacting the general
routine business. decided ON num-
Der of matters of interest and i'm
portance.
One of the first matters To come
before the board for consideration
was the commencement day exercis-
es, and the program as arranged by
the class committee for that day was
approved. 1t was also decided by
the board to make provision for a
hall in which TO hold the exercises.
The matter of larger school facil-
tiles came up for consideration. and
after discussion OF the matter the
board decided II was necessary to
have another school building The
building which they propose to erect
will be a fOur-room one story brick
and 1t will be built on the lot near
the high school building. With this
building it will be no longer neces-
sary to use Russell hall on Fourth,
and It will also enable the scohol au-
thorities TO use the central building
for high school entirely. II is esti-
mated that the cost Of the building
and its equipment. fire escape, sewer
will be about $4,000. and bonds will
have to be issued for this amount.
An election for that purpose will be
had on the 2Sth Of this month.

lnent of its principal part-north-
ern Minnesota.
Political demgogues have
slandered and ibelled the good
name of northern Minnesota by
the hair-brained cry DRAINAGE,
until central and southern Mime
sofa are prone to look at northern
Minnesota as if it were nothing
but frog pond. Drainage is all
right in its time and place, and
there are sections where it is
absolutely necessary, but the
unmeaning cry of drainage by the
politician has given us a black
eye that it will take time to over
come. 1t has discouraged immi-
grafton.
Uppermost and above all, if I
am elected, l will in season and
out of season, vote and strive for
substantial state aid for roads.
And l believe I fully realize the
light | am up against IN that the
representation from the northern
part is meager compared with
the representation from the other
parts of the state. But the whole
legislature must be made to see
that the state roads are substan-
tial benefit to the whole state.
I earnestly solicit your support.
Respectfully,

I. 4. FISK CANDIDATE
FOR COUNTY ATTORNEY
Popular Bemidji Attorney Should Be
Nominated and Elected County
Attorney.

One of the most important Offices
to be filled at the coming election
is that of county attorney.
| Beltrami county ia a young
county, her resources are but par
TALLY developed and with the greater
part of the county sparsely settled
there is great deal of territory
which must be developed.
Owing to the fact that the coun-
tvs resources are limited, the ex.
penses of the county must neces:
sarily be high as compared with
her income The office of county
attorney is one of the most important,
and in making your choice for this
Office people should guard their own
interests.
AS the county, grows older the
expenses will tighten, this being due
to the fact that the county becomes
settled and developed.
d. H. Fisk, who seeks the nomi-
nation for county attorney, is an
attorney of experience, having
practiced law for the last thirty-fve
years.
In all his dealings with the county
Mr.. Fisk announces that his plat
form will be a just and equitable
assessment of both real and personal
property and an economical admin
stration of the county's affairs.
Coming before the people with
this declaration of principle and
taking into consideration his expert
ence as an attorney, and knowing
his disposition to deal justly, fairly
and impartially with all, we do not
hesitate to recommend him for nomi-
nation and election to take the place
of our present efficient county attor-
ney, Henry Funkley.

hereby announce that I am d
candidate for the Republican nomi-

district, comprising Beltrami,
Clearwater and Red Lake coun-
ties.
I believe I fully appreciate the
importance and responsibility of
this office. l have lived in the
northern part of Minnesota for
the last thirty years, and am
familiar with the needs of the
district. The present undevel-
oped condition of the northern
part of Minnesota is shame on
the part of our Legislature, mas
much, as, it is the cause of Ameri-
can people settling up the Domin-
ion of Canada to the prejudice
of our own country, which is
more than equally as good in soil,
rainfall and climate and nearer to
markets.
The first step toward, develop
ment, I think is roads. The
principal part of the road work
should be done by the state be-
cause it is the party substantially
