and he will be opposed by George
Rhea. who is also a candidate for
alderman from that ward. We have
heard of no other aspirants for
alderman from the Fourth.
For the office of clerk, Thomas
Maloy, the present clerk, has filed
as candidate to succeed himself.
]. P. Young is also a candidate
for the office of city clerk. +
For treasurer, Earl Cell has filed
his petition, and at the present writ
ing we know of no opposition to
Mr.. Cell.
There promises to be consider
able of contest for the office of
assessor. J. E. Cahill, who was city
assessor last year, has filed for re-
election. D. D. Miller has also filed
as candidate for assessor.
There may be more candidates
for some of the offices. In fact,
it is intimated that the name of
third candidate may be presented
for mayor and that he will cut con-
siderable figure" in the campaign,
which has already been started by
the friends of Mayor Pogue and Mr..
Russell. -
1t is hoped, for the general we'll
fare of the city, that the present
campaign will not develop into the
mud-slinging" match like that
which was indulged in in the city
campaign of last year.

teams will be played on Friday even
ing, between the halves of the War
ren-Bemidji game, and promises to
be one of the fastest high school
games ever seen in this sec
ton. The local high school team
was recently defeated at Fosston, by
a score of 20 to II. The Bemidji
boys have been practicing diligently
since, however, and are very much
faster than at the time that game
was played. They will play in
much larger hall and one which they
are used to, which will give them a
decided advantage over the visiting
team. @-
On Saturday evening the girls
teams of the Fosston and Bemidji
high schools willplay, and this game.
will be played between the halves of
the second Warren-Bemidji game.
The Fosston girls team is per-
haps the fastest and most scientific
bunch Of girl players in the north
country. They recently defeated
Bemidji, Ii to 4. The Bemidji
girls, however, have improved wen:
derfully since then, and it is e.
pected that they will give t''e visit
ors a very close contest. ~
