Mr.. Eddy, while a member of Con-
gress, had to do with considerable
legislation which affected this part
of the state. He was instrumental
in securing the right-of-way for the

south shore of Red lake to Nebish.
Mr.. Eddy secured this right from
the secretary of the interior and
established precedent in this
matter, as previous to that time, any
right-of-way through Indian lands
had to be secured by special act of
congress authorizing the same.
The road has since been brought

COUNCIL MEETING WAS
FILLED WITH INTEREST
Last Evenings Session Devoted to
Many Matters Which Were of
Considerable Interest.

The meeting of the city council
which was held in the City Hall last
evening was enlivened by few
developments in regard to the pro-
posed new waterworks and the
present condition of the city water.
A letter was read from c. H.
Coffin of Chicago, who was awarded
the contract for the purchase of the
$5O,OOO bonds for the construction
of a new 1OO,OOO-gallon water tank
and the purchase of 500 feet of fire
hose. Mr.. Coffin enclosed a letter
from his attorney, Charles B. Wood
of Chicago, in which the latter
refused to approve the bonds because
he could not find a section in the
city charter providing for the repair
ing of water works" or for the pur-
chase of fire hose. Mr.. Wood
believed that those are current
expenses and also that the issue of
$4,000 bonds would exceed the
five per cent limit, allowed by the
charter.
City Clerk Maloy read the answer
of City Attorney Gibbons to Mr..
Coffin, in which Mr.. Gibbons ex-
planned that, under certain condi-
tons, which have been complied
with, ten per cent was the limit
named by the charter. MIR, Gibbons
had also cited the power of the
council to provide for the repairing
of the water-works and the purchase
of property in that connection.
MI. w. A. Gould then stated that
Mr.. Wood had probably read little
of the city charter and had become
so disgusted with it that he had not
read it through. Expressions were
general that the charter is sadly in
need of remodeling.
Mr.. Coffin had answered Mr.. Glib
bons letter by stating that he was
very anxious to purchase the bonds
but that it must be done legally.
He had referred the matter. with
Mr.. Gibbons letter to Mr.. Wood
and awaited his reply. Meanwhile,
the council must wait until they
hear from Mr.. Coffin again.

There is one large camp installed on
the ground, which employs over 100
men.

Lumber company, to be sawed at
the mill in this city.
Moore & Company will also cut

camp will be banked along Doran's
spur, and will be hauled to the Be-
midi mill.
Charles Allen is in charge of
operations at the Redby camp, and
Jeff Moore will look after the
Northome camp. J. K. Stangeland,
a member of the firm of Moore &
Company, will have charge of the
buying for the company, and also
attend to the clerical work. y.
Mr.. Moore will move from Deer
River to Bemidji with his family,
and the company will make Bemidji
headquarters for their operations.
