Bemidji Commercial Club urges
upon the member of the legisla-
tive body, and upon the legis-
lature when assembled in it's next
regular session, the urgent necessity
of providing the State Board of
Immigration with an appropriation
sufficient to properly advertise the
advantages of the state to the
world at large, which appropriation,
in our judgment, should not be less
than the sum of One Hundred Thous-
and Dollars per annum ($1OO,O00),
and that such appropriation be
granted under proper and intelligent
legislation which shall at all times en-
sure its wise, economicaland judicious
expenditure, to the greatest degree
compatible with a maximum of
results, and under such supervision
and control as shall best provide for
expenditure of such funds along the
lines indicated by the best and most
conservative judgement Of expert and
recognized advertising authorities;
and, futther be it
Resolved, That this club by no
means criticizes the work which has
already been done on the meagre
appropriation already granted; Com
missioner Welsh and the State I'm
migration Board have done we'll, but
is abs ard to expect $4,000 to carry
on proper advertising campaign for
a state as large as Minnesota and

THE OFFICIAL COUNT Of
VOTES NOT COMPLETED
Canvassing Board Still at Work.-Con'
test for the Judgeship Not Yet
~. Settled.

The members of the official can
wasting board W no will canvass the
returns of the late general election
from the different precincts of the
county has been in session since
yesterday, and is progressing as
rapidly as possible toward complet-
ing the canvass. G~
The board is composed of John
Wilmann, county auditor; Joseph
Wagner, chairman of the board of
county commissioners; H. A. Simons,
justice of the peace; and Albert
Brewer, justice of the peace.
The board is working as expedit-
iously. as could be expected, consid-
ering the manner in which returns
have been Struggling in. At l O'Clock
this afternoon the board had reached
the IF" in the alphabetical list of
towns and was canvassing the vote
in the town of FROM.
The precincts of STEVENSON and
McDougald were the last on the list.
The Stevenson returns came in this
morning, and the McDougald vote
had not yet arrived.
County Auditor Wilmann stated
to the Pioneer that if the McDoug-
aid returns were not forthcoming
this afternoon he would send an off,
Ger after them.
The returns on the final votes in
the judgeship contest are aggravat-
ingly slow in being given to the
public. At last accounts there were
six precincts IN the district yet to
hear FROM, outside the Stevenson
vote of Beltrami county, which was
received this morning. Mr.. Wright
lead, slightly, at last accounts, but
only the full official count will de-
termine whether Stanton or Wright

Later-At $50 this afternoon, the
McDougald returns were found, and
the board will now rush the count to
completion.

NETTING FOR WHITEFISH
Is NOW BEING PURSUED
Open Season for Netting Began Tuesday-Whitesh Are
Plentiful in Lake Bemidji and Other Lakes,
All Easy of Access.

The season allowed by law for
netting whitefsh in the inland lakes
of Minnesota opened Tuesday, and
there is every prospect that this
years fishing will be better than for
many years past.
Reports from those who are posted
in the matter are that whitefsh have
multiplied greatly in the lakes OF
Beltrami and adjoining counties.
and that the quality of fish are
better than those shipped in from
Duluth and other points.
The favorite grounds for fishing
whitefsh and trelipies are Lake
Bemidji, Lake Plantagnet and all
of the rivers and deeper lakes in the
vicinity of Bemidji.
Fishermen who net for whitefsh
and trelipies secure enough fish with
a few mornings hauls of the net to
last them the entire winter. Most
of the fisherman either salt or smoke
their fish, but number freeze them
solid, thawing GU t the fish as they
are needed.
The law relative to catching
whitefsh is as follows:
Provided, further, that in all of

men FOR WORK IN THE
WOODS ARE PLENTIFUL
Jobs for all Who Care to Work.
Small Timber Not Moving;
Pine Active.

According to Johnson & Ander-
son, who conduct the big local EN-.
pioyment office, men for work in the
woods are fairly plentiful this winter,
although there is considerable more
demand for laboring men than was
the case last winter.
Much more timber is being cut
this year than was cut last winter,
which necessitates the employment
of more labor. There has been an in.
hux of men, and the number of men
have just about supplied the demand.
Messrs. Anderson and Johnson
state that they can use all the men
who apply for situations and that
wages are fairly good this winter
AS to the timber output in the
country tributary to Bemidji, F. D.
Alger, Of the T. M. Partridge Lum
Der company, states that the demand
for pulp wood is not very active anc
that it is almost impossible to sell
ties of any description. He also
finds that it is not difficult matter
to secure adequate help to care fo1
the logging.
Much more pine timber is being
logged this winter than last, but

The snow (which has been falling

four hours has been hailed with
delight by the army of hunters who
have been focking to the northern
woods for the purpose of hunt e

This is the first opening of the
big-game season when there was
snow on the ground sufficient to
track deer, and it is certain that

Resolved, that this club makes
no critisicism of the present machin-
cry for the disbursement of the
states advertising funds; but, on
the contrary, we heartily approve of
the work of George Welsh, commits
sioner of immigration, and we be-
lieve that with larger appropriations
he can carry out on a much larger
scale the good work which he he has
already commenced; further
"RESOLVED, That the members
of the Bemidji Commercial Club,
after thoroughly examining what is
being done in Canada, California,
Colorado, the southwest, Texas and
other sections, is withheld from
asking for a greater appropriation by
the fact that 100000 per year will
conduct a conservative and effective
campaign, and that it is best to let
appropriation grow with experience
in the work. We do not believe
that this sum is as large as it should
be; we believe, however, that with
such a sum the tide of immigration
can be continued towards Minnesota,
and that with conservative begin
nings larger appropriations will
come when the state, as whole, is
convinced that they are necessary
and a profitable investment"
The matter of the farmers Insti-

December 4, was also taken up at
the meeting of the Commercial club
last evening,and an appropriate com
mite appointed to so conduct the

Several other matters of import
ance were also taken up and the
