| ing of mail.
The installing of the night service
necessitates the securing of a new
messenger to carry mail to and from
the trains to the postofice, and the
postofice authorities will advertise
for bids for the new service. These
bids will be opened at the local
postoffice and the contract for carry
ing the mail awarded later.
The requirements issued by the
postofflce department are that the
messenger must be over 10 years of
age, and suitable to intrust with the
care and custody of the mail, must
reside contiguous to the route and
personally perform the duties. The
messenger will be permitted to hire
an assistant at his own expense. Be-
fore entering on the service he must
take the necessary oath.
Employees of the postoffice, or any
immediate member of the family of
an employe of the postofice cannot
be paid for carrying the mail. The
messenger cannot assign or sub-let
his contract.
Much credit is due Postmaster
Anton Erickson for the installing of

BEMIDJI POSTOFFICE is
NOW OPEN NIGHT AND DAY
Washington Authorities Recognize Bemidi as Distrbu
ing Point.-lncreased Business Necessitates Night
Service.-Edward P. Gould in Charge Nights

Beginning last night, the Bemidji
postoffice has established a night
mail service and the office will be
open for the reception and dis.
patch of mail at all hours of the
day and night.
This action on the part of the
local office is necessitated by the
fact that all passenger trains on
both the Minnesota & tional
and Great Northern railways are
now carrying mail, both night and
day to and from this city. The
postoffice officials at Washington
recognize that Bemidji is the metro.

cial importance and geographical
location is the logical point for the
general distribution of mail for
northern Minnesota. The depart
ment is establishing night service
and will make a new contract with
mail carrier to carry mail between
the depots and the postoffice, both
night and day.
Under the new arrangements,
Edmund P. Gould will have charge
of the postoffie nights and will
supervise the receiving and dispatch

they were exceedingly well pleased
with the extreme warmth of the
reception rendered to them. Mr..
Lee paid Bemidji a handsome compli-

her citizens and their determined
efforts to advance the welfare of
this community.
Bemidji has an enviable reputa-

said Mr.. Lee, and your reception

fact that this reputation has been
honestly gained"

Commissioner Ryan Sets Hearing oil
Charges Against Four County
Officials for August 5.

The hearing of the charges
brought against County Audito,
Wilmann and County Commissioners
Sibley, Wright and Danaher, which
was continued from July 9 to July
20, has again been continued until
August S, at the request of E. E.
Mcdonald, attorney for Messrs.
Danaher and Wilmann, and P. J.
Russell, attorney for Mr.. Wright.
At the time the delay was called
for and the postponement of the
hearing was granted until the 10th,
M. =. Ryan, the commissio ner
appointed by Governor Johnson to
preside over the hearing, stated that
he could not positively allow
additional time further than July 20.
It was also stated at that time that
Mr.. Mcdonald would be busy with
the tax cases against the Weyerheau-
ser Lumber company on August 5,
or the delay might have been con-
tinued until that date.
Since the hearing was adjourned
the tax cases have been continued
until the September term of court
and Mr.. Mcdonald requested Mr..
Ryan to continue the hearing against
the county officials until August S.
This was granted yesterday afier-
noon by Mr.. Ryan, who sent Mr..
Mcdonald the following telegram:

Mcdonald paid compliment to the
papers of this section and claimed
they should be compensated for the
many columns of matter which
they printed boosting" for their
home communities.
IF municipality paid the
extreme limit for the publication of
its legal notices, the community
would by no means pay for the full
advertising that is being done by
the local papers," said Mr..
Mcdonald. He hoped the attorney
general would recommend a law
allowing municipality to reimburse
newspapers for this work.
I. J. COPYRIGHT, publisher of the
Staples Headlight and secretary of
the association, was the next speaker.
He claimed that he made no pre-
tentions of being a public speaker.
His wife had suggested to him that
he participate in the 'gab fest,''
which would be the one big event in
which he would win first prize at. this
outing of the association.

Toastmaster Russell called npon
F. A. Dare, publisher of the Walker
Pilot, stating that Mr.. Dare had
begged him not to ask him for a
speech and he would leave it to his
hearers as to whether Mr.. Dare
should be allowed to 60 "scot-free."
There were loud calls for Dare and
the bright little journalist from the
Cass county seat gave very pithy
and brief speech.
Mr.. Dare voiced the sentiment of

hoped to see the local committee at
one end of the banquet table and

surrounded by body guard of
Bemidji policemen, at the other end
of the table, and harmony reigning
supreme between the visitor from

reference to the late normal school
scrap. He hoped that when the
association had grown to 200 men,
bers they would be given an oppor-
tunity to make demonstration in
force" which they would do with
right good will.
Charles F. Scheers, editor of the
Akeley Herald-Tribune, the was next
speaker. Mr.. Scheers claimed to be

that assertion. He eloquently &C

LABOR DAY TRIP
FOR THE YACHTS
Friday Night to Monday Night,
September 6 Cruise Is
Suggested.

The regatta committee Of the Hawaii
Yacht Club will take up a suggestion
for another excursion. The matter has
not yet been definitely settled but there
is little doubt that it will be arranged.
Labor Day, September 6, comes on
a Monday, and it has been suggested
that an excursion be arranged to the
lee side Of Molokai where all the
yachtsmen can enjoy themselves fishing
or hunting on land and getting arrested.
The idea, as outlined by one of the
most enthusiastic members of the yacht
club, is to start Friday night, Septem-
Der 3. Sail for Molokai and drop
anchor in some smooth water where
there is a good landing, such as at Pa
pohaku. That would allow Saturday
and Sunday for having fun along the
shore and the return could be made on
Monday with a start at about a. m,
and all the yachts would be certain to
reach Honolulu. well before dark.
Two members of the committee were
consulted on the matter yesterday af-
ternoon and they stated that thew
thought it would be a fine idea. The
youngsters will probably again be in
vited to act as crew of the Hawaii and
will doubtless have as good a time as
they did going to Waianae.
A terrible roar reached this Office
yesterday afternoon. A committee of
enthusiastic youngsters approached the
sporting writer with axes and tears.
They said that they did not know about
the trip to Waianae and they were
feeling as nearly crazy as possible
about missing the trip when they might
have gone.
The explanation was made by refer
ring them to the Advertiser files, where
in the proposed cruise was religiously
written up dav after day. Tt was init
mated that they should read the sport
ing columns. But the answer came
quick and clear. ''Gee, always read
the sporting column when I get a
chance but Pop he always grabs the
paper and reads the sports himself on
the way down town.
This puts it up to the fathers of
future yacht owners. When they see
dope about the youngsters wanted on
the Hawaii they should let the rising
generation know and see that they go
along and have the time of their lives.

Constable Nance and a Prisoner.

Township Constable Walter G.
Nance went to Marion, S. c.,
Tuesday armed with the proper
credentials and brought to Jail
here Robt. Smith, colored, who
is wanted for retailing and who
skipped his bond. A deputy
from Fayetteville made the same
trip the same day for the same
man. When Constable Nance
started back with his charge he
said, said he, This is the way
carry them," and straightway
he linked his left arm with the
negro's right. And the Fayette-
vile man had the key to the
handouts. And it came to pass
that when Constable Nance
reached Lumberton with his
prisoner he earnestly desired OF
the Fayetteville deputy that he
unlock the cuffs SO that the white
officer might not have to march
through town to the Jail with ar
arm locked to an arm of his ne
gro prisoner. But the Fayette
vile man said he could not I'M
lock until the prisoner was safe
in Jail. So they came to jail tina
way. And Constable Nance will
not do that some more.
