CELEBRATION JULY FIFTH
WILL BRING LARGE CROWD

With a special train secured to
run from Brainerd north on the regu-
lar night schedule over the M. & I.
Sunday night, arriving in Bemidji
Monday morning at $40, there is
every indication that the crowd
which will attend the celebration in
this city next Monday will be con-
siderably augmented.
There are but one or two minor
points where celebrations are to be
held on the M. & I. south of here, so
that the, local celebration will not
interfere with any "doings" down
the line. The same is true north of
Bemidji, and with splendid trans
portation facilities to the city a
crowd of large proportions will un-
doubtedly be on hand to enjoy the
most excellent program.
The parade promises to be a
leading feature, and many unique

ing of one 1800-ga]lon centrifugal
pump, directly connected with a 65-
horsepower motor; one 60O-gallon
triplex pump, directly connected to
a 5O-horsepower motor; one 6-inch
water meter, and all valves in the
pumping station. The contract
was fixed at $6324, but the council
withheld the right to select
smaller or larger triplex pump, when
the combined flow of the two arte-
sian wells is known.
The building for the pumping
station is yet in embryo, but the
structure that will replace the old
pumping station will be more in
keeping with the enlarged plant.
The old building will be torn down
and moved forward to the street
line and made more substantial and
materially larger. It is expected
that the plans will be completed
by City Engineer Stoner not later
than next Monday night. The
advertising for bids will take week
or two, when the contract for the
erection and remodeling of the build
ing will be let.

Using representative for the Union
Metallic Cartridge company; Harry
Wirtz, assistant director; doc"
Chapman, ticket seller; Robert Alt
man; and Thomas Ford, legal
adjuster.
The work of the degree team was
a little the smoothest ever performed
at local meeting. The candidates
lost their jovial expression and laud-
ably expressed some fear as to where
they would eventually end their
existence, owing to laxity in obeying
some of the ten commandments Of
the Good Book" during their early
manhood.
But the limitations were soon over,
and while every one who saw the work
was sore from head to foot through
violent expressions of merriment,
there was exceeding good fellowship
displayed, and the members of the
local lodge dealt out hospitality with
a lavish hand.
1t was necessary to hasten the
last portion of the work, in order
that the circus people might catch
their train.
AS he was leaving the hall, Mr..
Ford, the oldest Elk in the hall, and
who is sort of dad" for the Elks
of the circus, stated, with much
feeling, that he had visited every
part of the United States where
there were Elk lodges, but that the
hospitality extended by Bemidji
Lodge, No. 1852, and the work: of
the degree team laid over" any,
thing he had yet SEEN.
A light lunch was served during
the evening, and there were plenty
of cigars for the boys"

the "browsers" of the "herd'' that
their united services were needed
to duly impress upon the circus
fellows the solemnity and awfulness
of the occasion-and the "bunch"
responded most notably. The four
candidates were given all of the
sixty-eight degrees, with a few
original stunts" thrown in for good
measure in order that the new
bucks" could tell their friends
about it.
1t was necessary for the local
members to wait until quite late
(after the show was over) before the
work of initiation could 20 on, and
the hall was crowded when the
grand entree" was made, headed
by the sacred African ''bovalapus,"
the cayuga eistriech and the other
freaks OF the degree work.
The four fawns'' were the follow
ing:
Thomas Holmes, side show artist;
Garry Vanderbilt, clown; Albert
Martinus, ticket seller; and George
Wormold, boss canyassmen. The
men were initiated here at the
special request of the Baraboo. Wis.,,
lodge, all four being residents of the
Wisconsin lodge and having made
application to join the lodge at that
place.
Ever since the boys filed their
applications at Barboo, they have
been the recipients of much jolly
ing" at the hands of the Elks who
are travelling with the Gollmar show,
with the result that when the show
reached here, the prospective candi-
dates were we'll nigh rendered

SMALL IRRIGATION WORKS.

While it is decidedly to the ad-
vantage of the state to encourage
great irrigation schemes, because
these bring about more quickly and
effectually than anything else the
settlement of the state and the divis-
ion of productive lands into small
farms; yet minor irrigation work is
deserving Of no small consideration.
in view of the fact that much of this
has been done in the state and in the
aggregate, has brought thousands of
acres of land under cultivation.
It seems that. while no concerted
action is being undertaken by the
various small irrigators, much is be-
ing done by them toward the conser-
walton of flood waters, and it is high
ly probable that eventually these eff
forts may be consolidated in districts,
where all of the people in the respect
i've sections may be benefited by in
dividual work of a pioneer character
now being done.
Colorado cannot afford to slight
anything that is being done for its
advancement, as the great necessity
of the present time is development
and the exploitation of agriculture.
Therefore. every possible aid to irri-
cation should be given, care being
only exercised to see that plans which
are projected are legitimate and have
for their object the actual bringing
of land under cultivation, and are not
for speculative purposes. - Pueblo
