One OF the best examples OF un-

To LegaIize Orr Bonds.

St. Paul, Feb. S 3:o8 p M
Especial to Pioneer. "a bill was
Introduced in the House this morn
ing by Representative Opsahl to
legalize the bonds of any fourth
class city for water works purposes
which include the acquiring of fire
engines and apparatus:
Mr.. Opsah] attempted to have
the rules suspended and the bill
passed but it was referred to the
judiciary committee.
This bill was brought here by
Attorney, G. M. Torrance as relief
to the City of Bemidji, which voted
water works bonds including the
purchase of fire apparatus and
which was later declared illegal.

M. j. MARKHAM AND JOHN
BAILEY FORM PARTNERSHIP
Former Deputy Sheriff Believes in the Future Prosperity
Of Beltrami County and Enters Real Estate Office
of w. j. Markham

One of the most important changes
in the business history of Bemidji
was completed recently when John
Bailey of this city purchased a half
interest in the real estate and insur-
ance business of w. ]. Markham.
John Bailey, son of ex-Sheriff
Thomas Bailey, has become thor
oughly acquainted with the existing
conditions throughout Bel r m
county during the nine years in
which he has been deputy sheriff
under his fathers regime. Mr..
Markham recently stated that he
regarded Mr.. Bailey as a valuable
addition to the business, as the
latter is we'll and favorably known
all through this portion of : the
country:
Mr.. Bailey believes in the future
prosperity of Beltrami county and,
in an interview yesterday afternoon
with representative of the Pioneer,
said, I have been casting about for
some time before entering upon a
new business venture and finally
decided to engage in the real estate,
insurance and rental business and
when the opportunity to form a
partnership with Mr.. Markham pre-.
sented itself, I considered that I
was indeed fortunate. -..-.s
I believe that the time has
arrived when the people of the coun-
try are beginning to realize that
Northern Minnesota has as good

farming lands as can be found any
where in the United States; and as
a dairyjng and stock-raising country,
one has but to look and he cannot
but know that Nature herself has
provided most bountifully for such
an industry.
And at the same time that these
conditions exist" continued Mr..
Bailey, our lands can be purchased
for from one-ffth to one-half of
what it costs to buy lands in the
southern, central and western parts
of this state. Besides, these lands
in northern Minnesota are well
timbered and any man, who uses
ordinary business judgment, can
easily make the timber pay for the
clearing and breaking-up of his
acres and in fact, in a great many
instances, make it pay for the land
as we'll.
Mr.. Markham and I are going
to work hard for the development
and settlement of this portion of the
country and expect to do consider
able advertising Of the resources and
advantages of this part of the
state"
The new firm will be known as
the Mechanically company and
will engage in real estate, lands,
loans, insurance and rental business.
The members of the company are
competent and reliable gentlemen
and the firm will doubtless prosper.

Chairman Gartside said it was the

A Popular FsIscy.

There is a popular fallacy about
a drowning man sinking for the
third time. The number of times
a man sinks has nothing to do
with his drowning. lie may
sink but once, and he may go be-
meath the water any number Of
times. II all depends upon the
person who is drowning, his
physical condition and how quick
ly his lungs ill with water. That
cycle Of three is carried along by
those who insist that a person
dies in his third cOngestive chill.
But that is not true. The same
rule holds good in congestive
chills as in the case of the drown.
ing man. A person may die in
the first, or he may have half a
dozen and still live. The rule or
three does not obtain there either.
