The Cane Valley High School
team crossed bats with the com.
bined teams Of the Russell Creek
Baptist Academy and the S. w.
Buchanan Collegiate Institute,
both of Campbellsville.

esting game, it was rather a one
sided affair, as the C. V. H. S.
team easily defeated the combin-
ed teams of the other schools by
the overwhelming score of % to
10.
Many poor plays were made by
both teams, but all played we'll
considering the practice.

new rifle range at the foot of "Old

one-half miles south of the city.
The shoot will be for the purpose
of giving the members of the com.
pany chance to qualify as marks.
men. The distances which the
marksmen will fire targets will be
from the 200, 800 and 500 var d
marks. =.
In order to qualify as marksmen
it is necessary for those participant
ing in the shoot to secure score of
ninety-eight points out of possible
$50.
The members of the company
will wear their Khaki uniforms with
belts and rifles and will meet at
the armory at o'clock tomorrow
morning. Vehicles will be provided
for the comissary department and
to transport the ladies who wish
to accompany the boys to the
range.
Tom orrow's shoot will probably
be the last practice this season on
the range.
There. are sixty-seven members
enrolled on the Company KS roster,
but about one-third of these men,
bers are absent from the city, either
in the North Dakota harvest fields,
or visiting at other points.
Fifteen members of the company
have qualified as marksmen and
have made scores as follows:
Kelly, End lieutenant, 125; Hillaby,
1st lieutenant III; Tardy, private,
III; Halleday, private, 116; Otto,

1t is expected that the shoot will
result in adding several members as
marksmen to the company, as
undoubtedly several will make better
scores than the required 90 points.

MARGARET BOYD DROWNED
NORTH SHORE CASS LAKE
Little Indian Girl Attempts to Wade Across Mouth Of
Turtle River and Perishes. Bridge Needed
in That Part of County. .~

Cass Lake, Sept. 5.-(Special to
Pioneer. )-Margaret Boyd, a 9-year
old pupil in the Indian school,
located on the north shore of Aliens
Bay, a few miles north of Cass Lake
was drowned early this morning,
while attempting to cross Turtle
river, near where the stream flows
into Cass lake.
The little girl desired to 90 to
her home which was on the opposite
side of the river. There being no
other available means of crossing
the stream, Margarst started to wade
through the water. When the girl
hae reached point about the middle
of the river, she sank in a deep hole
and was drowned.
Only a few small children were
present when the drowning occurred
and before they could summon aid
Margaret was dead.
There is great need of bridge at
the point where the little Indian girl
met her death. There are many
settlers residing in that part of Bel
trami county, and they have been

FunkIey Being Well Received.

Henry Funkley of Bemidji, candi-
date, for the Republican nomination
for Representative of the 61st
district, was a visitor in Shevlin
Wednesday on his return from a
drive thru the country to Mallard
and Aida. Mr.. Funi'taey has make
good as county attorney of Beltrami
county and would make a good legis-
lator. He is hustler and we pre-
dict that his visit here will be re-
warded with a large vote at the
primaries. He went over to Bagley
from here. e.-Shevlin Advocate.
That is one of the strong points
about Mr.. Funkley. He is man

can tell people what he desires them
to know without going into five or

DANCE MONDAY EVENING
Hust|ing Committee Has Charge Of

Time.

The first annual ball Of Bemidji
Tribe, No. 80, Improved Order of

the members of the committee are
sparing no pains to make the
occasion a grand success.
Messrs. Andy McNab, Robert

the dance, are putting forth their
best efforts to make the dance a
notable one in the history of public
entertainments in the city.

pleading for a \ bridge across the
Turtle river for several years, but
their plea is in vain. ~-
There is quite number of farmers
in the vicinity, and the fact that
considerable land near there is soon
to be opened for settlement would
appear to appeal more strongly to
the right of the claim of the settlers
for bridge, so that they could get
their teams across. -.
At the present time the settlers in
that part of the county are forced to
travel many unnecessary miles in
order to reach a market to do their
trading.
In addition to the demand from
the settlers there is a need for a
bridge for the use of the scholars
of the Indian school, many of
whom reside on the opposite side
of the river from the school.
If the department of Indian
affairs would cooperate with the
Beltrami county officials, it is likely
that bridge would be erected
where desired.

The Pioneer has received the fol-
lowing communication from Gen.
c. c. Andrews, state forestry COM
missioner, wherein the latter recon-
mends scheme for reforestation:
..4.. st. Paul, Sept. 4.
To The Editor
Il would ask the insertion in your
paper and careful perusal by your
readers of the following plan of
reforestation, and if it meets their
approval that they endeavor to have
their senator and representatives in
the legislature committed to its sup
port. r.. - ~ 49," -
The consumption of the pine
forests in Minnesota has been going
on for over sixty years without
adequate measures for reproduction.
In about ten years the remaining
original pine timber will be gone;
and as it requires eighty years for
pine to grow to merchantable size on
land which would be used for its
production, the present generation
would be culpable if it longer
neglected suitable measures for
reforestation. The ordinary revenue
has not admitted of adopt
ing such measures. Although the
subject has been discussed many
years, and there seems to be a
friendly sentiment, all that the State
of Minnesota has done towards
reforestation is the planting of 200
acres.
If the proposed constitutional
amendment be submitted to the
people it will lead to discussion of
the whole subject, and if the amend
ment should be adopted the tax of
three-tenths of a mill, equivalent to
only thirty cents on each $1,000 of
taxable property, would yield
100000 annually, and Minnesota
would in eighty years have 100000
acres of normal forest, which would
be sufficient for her needs. must
make this communication short and
cannot enlarge on the many benefits
the people of our state would derive
therefrom. Your read~fs must think
of them and then ask themselves
what their posterity will think if
they longer delay taking suitable
steps for reforestation. -.
The following is the proposed
amendment:
To secure sustained yield of
timber for the use of the people of
this State the proper officers shall
annually levy and collect a tax of
three -tenths of one mill on each
dollar of taxable property within
The Bemidji daily pioneer., 1908-09-05

this State, the proceeds of which
shall be used for the purchase of
land for the State. adopted for
forest at not over $500 per acre,
and for the production and mainten-
ance thereon OF forest according to
forestry principles. Unexpended
balances shall not lapse but consti-
tute fund for forestry purposes.
The timber produced thereon shall
be sold at fair valuation and the
revenue therefrom be paid into the
State treasury, except that one
quarter of the net revenue shall be
paid to the towns IN which the land
is situated, in aid of the public
schools and roads. Should any
tract acquired be found better adap-
ted for any other purpose than the
production of timber, it may be sold
or leased and the proceeds used for
acquiring or developing forestry
land. Until otherwise directed bv
the legislature, which may supple
ment these provisions with necessary
enactments, the State Forestry
Board shall draw and disburse the
money hereby provided and purchase
manage and control the lands and
forests. No money shall be paid for
any tract until the attorney general
shall certify to the validity of the
title. It shall be competent for
two successive regular legislatures,
by two-thirds vote of each house,
to alter or repeal any of those pro-
visions.
There are some people who
think it would be a good policy to
encourage the production of timber
by private owners by reducing the
tax on land so used. I would not
object to an additional amendment
to the constitution of a clause in
substance like the following to form
part and follow the amendment
above recommended; but as the state
would have to watch that the ex-
empted land was being properly
forested, I am not inclined to favor
exempting more than 80 acres from
tax for any seperate owner.
To encourage the production of
timber by private parties, the legis-
lature may provide that not ex-
ceeding 80 acres of land belonging
to any seperate owner and used
for the production of timber in
manner which the legislature shall
prescribe, shall be taxed only
for its value as land; the tim
Der to be exempt from tax until cut.
