bEMIDU MADE TERMINAL
POINT AND GIVEN RATES
Northern Grocery Co. Secures FarReachng Order from
Railroad and Warehouse Commission. '..Reduces
Commodity Freight Rates Twenty Per Cent

Bemidji is situated on the line of the
Great Northern Railway between
Duluth and Crookston, and on the
main line of the Minnesota & Inter
national Railway, which has traffic
connections with the Northern Pacific
Railway; that the Northern Grocery
Company is a corporation created
under the laws of this State, that its
capital stock is Fifty Thousand
| $50, OO0) Dollars, all of which has been
paid in, and the Company is prepared
at once to enter into the wholesale
grocery business at Bemid]i, provided
terminal distributing rates that apply
to other sections of the State and towns
similarly situated are granted to Be-
midi; that there is a large country
upon the line of said Railroads that
is tributary to Bemidji. and the Com
mission finds that it is nothing more
than fair that it should be treated in
the same manner as Crookston, Brain
erd, Thief River Falls, St. Cloud,
Moorhead, Fergus Falls, Wadena and
Sank Center.
"IT IS THEREFORE, ORDERED,
that Bemidji be and is hereby de-
clared to be a terminal, and be given
the rates of the terminal stations here
inbefore mentioned; that is, that the
''in' rates on carload shipments that
prevail to other terminals shall also
apply to Bemidji.
"This order shall take effect within
fifteen (15) days after the date of SER
vice.
dated, St. Paul, Mimi, December
3rd, 1908.
"BY THE COMMISSION
"a. G. CLAUSEN,
"Secretary.'
This action on the part of the
commission, so we are informed,
will give reduction of twenty per
cent on all incoming freight which
is received in carload lots at Bemidjl
which includes other commodities
as we'll as groceries.
The people of Bemidji should feel
grateful to the Northern Grocery
company, who secured this conces.
sion from the Railroad & Warehouse
commission and made possible this
! big saving on freight rates.

sheriff of Todd county, and Emel
Wolfgram, also of Long Prairie,
arrived in the city yesterday noon
from Fergus Falls searching for
Mrs. Wolfgram, who had escaped
from the state insane asylum, and
found her in this city.
Mrs. Wolfgram had escaped from
the state asylum and, by pawning
her watch, had secured enough
money to buy a railroad ticket to
this city, Bemidji having been her
old home.
Sheriff Hamilton and Mr.. Wolf
gram departed yesterday afternoon

ate woman in their custody to again
place her under the care of the state.

GOV. JOHNSON FAv0RS
FREE CANADIAN LUMBER
Gives His Views on the Tariff Question
While in Washington Attending
,-@ Waterway Congress.

Washington, Dec. 9.-It is appar-
ent that one of the hottest fights in
congress over the provisions of the
tariff will be waged around the lum-
Der schedule. The lines are as
strongly drawn for and against re-
auctions in the duties on rough lum-
Der as they were ten years ago when
the present tariff was framed.
The Eastern border states, and
the South and far Northwest, will
oppose all efforts to reduce duties.
Their claim is that the removal of
the duty on rough lumber would be
either followed by the imposition of
an exposition of an expert duty by
Canada, thus defeating the prospect
for lower prices to the consumers, or
the inflow of low grades of lumber
would be so heavy as to be injurious
to the lumber industry of this coun-
try. =
Governor Johnson of Minnesota,
who has arrived here to attend the
waterways congress today, took a
decided stand in favor of free lum-
Der as step toward reciprocity with
Canada.
we of Minnesota have nothing
to lose by such an arrangement" he
said. THE time is rapidly ap.
preaching when we will not be able
to make such an arrangement, as
Canada will soon reach that period
of development when we will need
her more than she will need US. AS
to lumber, the time is not far off
when we will have to look to Can
ada for our lumber. It is absurd to
think that in our trade we can reach
out as far as Oregon and Washing
ton, but cannot 20 to Winnipeg be-
cause of an imaginary line"

There is not a child in Beltrami
county compelled to stay away from
school for want of sufficient CLOTH
ing. There are undoubtedly settlers
whose houses are small, without
steam heat, electric lights and hot
and cold baths, but there are none
suffering for the necessaries of life.
plenty good food, clothing, and
abundance of fuel.
Come with me Mike, 1 mean
Mitchell, to your own Minneapolis,
or St. Paul, or Duluth, and I will
show you within the area of a
small precinct, more dire, abject,
grinding, hopeless poverty, more
shocking conditions than can be
found in Beltrami and Clearwater
counties, and add-to them Itasca
and Koochiching.
The writer hereof spent two
weeks this fall making a canvas of
the county, and visited a number
of settlers in nearly every township
in this county, and I never saw or
heard of case of absolute want
or suffering for the recessaries of
lite. I have stopped with them
wherever night overlook me, and in
every case got a comfortable bed
and a good meal.
Il do not wish this communica-
ton to be taken as a free ADVERTISE
ment of the recources of this county,
but say, advisedly, that in no
county in the state can a settler live
as we'll for the same cost as he can
in this county. A half-acre will
raise all the potatoes and vegetables
that the, average family will use in
a year. Fish Of the best varieties
can be mad for the taking, and fresh
meat can be found by anyone not
too lazy to look for it. His fuel is at
at his door and costs only the labor
of cutting.
II am forced to discredit the
Bemidji incident for the reason that
no time is mentioned. 1t could have
happened. Such things have hap
pened in every city and town in the
state.
mr.. McDonald's ignorance or
deliberate Misrepresentation of the
