Twelve stitches in Heart.

a few days.
The remarkable operation is said to
have been the first of its kind ever
performed in st. Louis. On several
occasions incisions in the outer COW
ering of the heart have been closed,
but never before have stitches been
taken in the heart itself while it was
pumping blood.
AS soon as Lawlor was received at
the hospital. Supt. w. c. G. Kirchner
and Drs. Rodney Bunch and C. H.
Shut performed the operation. An
opening in his breast was made in
the form of a trap door, the ribs be-
ing cut and laid back.
The doctors had little hope that
Lawlor would live. as the operation
was an extremely dangerous one. He
recovered rapidly, however, and
Thursday was able to walk about the
hospital. He will be discharged Sum
day. He says the wound panied him
no more than a pin-prick, and that he
did not realize he was seriously hurt

his case with hfm.-St. Louis Post

share toward developing the country con-
tiguous to Bemidji and Beltrami county.
They have always been generous to
fault in the aiding of every enterprise, and
their influence has always been lent to the
cities in which they operate and in which
they are interested.
The Crookston Lumber company is
concern which is indeed deserving of the
popularity it has impelled, both here and
elsewhere and The Pioneer is gratifed to
make this point patent to it's thousands of
readers.
Then, again, the Crookston Lumber com
pany is noted for it's generous treatment of
it's employees. They have provided every
devise for the protection of life and limb,
and in every other way they prove their
claim to justice and equity.
Under the present management the al
fairs of the company are prospering to
degree fattering to the ability of the
executive who oversees it's processes. The
business of the firm has been greatly in
creased, new fields have been established,
and the policy of the company has been
brought to that high plane which has made
the Crookston Lumber company so power
full and widely known
The members of the Crookston Lumber
company are, Individually and collectively,
potential factors in the business, industrial
and public of the Northwest, and they
represent one of the pushing concerns
which have made Bemidji great.
The Bemidji daily pioneer., 1909-03-27

extended it's trade to Illinois, Iowa, Ne
braska, Kansas, Missouri and the Dakotas,
not forgetting that they have an extensive
trade in this state. Their rapidly increas-
ing trade, and the short time that was re-
4uired to build it up, can be accounted for
by the fact that the company offers only
the highest grade timber to prospective
buyers, quotes prevailing prices-and per-
hars little bit better-and delivers ac-
cording to contract.
This company constitutes an important
adjunct to Bemidjis business interests, and
verifies the sentiment for which the Pho
neer SO insistently contends = that Be-
midi is railroad center of general avail
ability.
The presence of the Clark Pole & Tie
company is also evidence of the confidence
which business men repose in this terri
tory.
Let us digress long enough to state that
the Clark Pole & Tie company has de-
monstrated by it's continuance in business
that Beltrami county is bedrock in solidity
and thrift and that all industries which To-
cate here bid field of remuneration COM
mensurate with their investment.

BEMIDJI LUMBER COMPANY.

This is another home concern which
richly merits mention in the columns of
The Pioneer, so that our thousands of read
ers may become more familiarized with the
spontaneity with which this company as
sists all moves of a public nature.
Like other mills in the State, this one
produces lumber in enormous quantities,
depending upon competent workmen and
peaceable labor conditions to produce
their high-class output. They utilize up
wards of 400 employees with whom they
work hand in glove, and there is yet to be
heard the first complaint as between mast.
er and man so far as this numbering mill is
concerned.
There is nothing else to say relative to
this numbering mill except to add that it

CLARK POLE & TIE COMPANY.

This concern represents another inviting
phase of the varied resources of Bemidji
and Beltrami county. Its existence is a
positive bid to the investor who is seeking
a filed for the purpose of manufacturing
wood products, inasmuch as the Clark
Pole & Tie company annually transact
business in poles, posts and piling, and
this year expect to increase their sales by
one-half over and above their last years
business. This company, while it has been
in business about two years, has already

THE cRooksToN LUMBER COMPANY.

This concern is among the largest of it's
kind in the Great Northwest Maintaining
a lumber mill at this point which employees
upwards of 600 men, the Crookston Lum-
ber company ranks pre-eminent as a home
industry whic-4 is entitled to the unalloyed
cooperation of all our people. This COM
pany annually puts thousands of dollars
into the pockets of our working people,
thus materially benefitting the home mer-
chant, and so comports itself in manner
which has won general appreciation. 1t
has proved itself public-spirited concern,
and the incescant struggle on the part of
The Pioneer for the securing of home pat
ronage, of home industries and wide
spread advertisement of Bemidji has been
greatly benefited by this notice of the
Crookston Lumber company which, while
it requires no publicity, is nevertheless
more than willing to be slated among the
enthusiastic boosters of their home city.
The company fully realizes the immersur-
able Importance of publicity proclaiming
the city's resources, natural and creative,
as it is a fOregone conclusion that universal
advertisement means an increase in popu-
lation, more new buildings and additional
prosperity, which means, of course, d per-
septible increase in value of city and
county realty.
The Crookston Lumber company, as we
have before asserted is mammoth both as
to capitalization and output. They operate
two huge mills in the north half of Mime
sofa, one at Bemidji and one at Crooks
ton, their headquarters being at this point.
Inasmuch as they employ 600 men in this
city and an equally large force at Crooks
ton, it can be readily discerned that they
are factors worth considering in all mat
ters pertaining to a public character.
The Crookston Lumber company is own
er and controller of timber, landed and
railroad interests to the amount of hun
dreds of thousands of dollars. The officers
of the company are men of acknowledged
integrity and such who have done their

Corn-Cash houses were sellers OF
December corn, being compelled to

to the belief that cold weather would

total absence of which is the only real

Oats Changing operations, with a

is an immense short interest in De-
cember oats and cash oats are worth
more than December. Holders of
local stocks are very firm in their
