The Grand Rapids High School
football team, defeated the Bemidji
High School football team last
Saturday, in ard-fought and
closely-contested game that was
almost anybody's, Grand Rapids
winning the game through lucky
play by Murphy, its crack end, who
grabbed a fumbled forward pass and
ran half the length of the field for a
touchdown, Grand Rapids failing
to kick goal, the game ending in a
score of to O in favor of Grand
Rapids.
Outside of this one lucky play, the
game was intensely exciting and
close, and was greatly enjoyed by
the crowd.
The Bemidji High school boys
lined up as follows:
Brenneman, center; Russell and
Hilliard, guards; Mcdonald and
Larson, tackles; Neumann and D.
Gould, ends; Kreatz, quarterback
(captain) Stanton and Gill, half
backs; Lycan, fullback.
Grand Rapids opposed Bemidji
in the following positions:
Tyndell c, E. Erskine and GRAHAM
e, Reusswig and O'Brien t, Logan
and Murphy e, Powers or, Brannon
and T. Erskine hb, Blood Captain
fb.
Lester Lofberg of Grand Rapids
and Frank Jackson of Bemidji alter
mated as referee and umpire. Lof-
berg refereed the first half, while
Jackson was umpire, and the posi-
tons being reversed in the second
half; and they gave general salts
faction.
The teams played rs and 20
minute halves, time being taken out
frequently because of injuries to
players.
In the first half, the game see
sawed back and forth, all over the
field, in very even manner, but it
looked as though neither team would
be able to score.

the Security State Bank" to CON-
mence business about January 3,
1910.
This newest of Bemidji's financial
institutions is promoted by men
who are we'll known in this CON-
munity. E. J. Swedback has heavy
property interests in Bemidji, and
all of the other persons who form
the corporation are also quite
heavily interested in property in
this city.
The new corporation has pur-
chased the north twenty-five feet of
the Miller-Snow block, known as the
Winter corner" and which is now
occupied by the E. H. Winter CON-
pany with their large stock of mer-
chandise. The latter firm will move
to new quarters.
This new bank organized by home
people, will undoubtedly receive 2
fair share of the>patronage accorded
banks in this vicinity. The institu.
ton will be conducted on a sound
and conservative basis, and as Be
midi progresses, the bank will un
doubtedly be a thriving institution

ment of Subscriptions Should Be
IL Made at Once,

The sub-contractors who will
grade a portion of the Moose Lake.
Plummer extension of the 500 rail-
road are making the dirt fly" in
the vicinity of the Leech Lake dam,
on the Leech Lake river, according
to Alex S. Martin of Leech Lake,
who was in Bemidji Saturday.
MI. Martin says that Peter
Nelson, who is the sub-contractor
for Foley Bros, has a gang of thirty
men in one camp and fifty men in
another camp, who are rushing the
work of building the 500 grade east
ward toward Moose lake. They
have a big grader and there is
little difficulty in putting up the
grade.
Mr.. Martin says he is informed
that the actual line running from the
Leech Lake dam toward Cass Lake
and Bemidji has not been actually
and definitely settled as yet; but
when M. D. Stoner of this city and
his gang of surveyors complete the
work which they are now on between
Cass Lake and Bemidji the perma-
nent line will soon be located.
The work of collecting the SUBJ
scriptions to the 500 fund is being
pushed, and every citizen who has
put his name down, no matter how
much or how small the amount,
should hasten with funds to either of
the banks to pay the subscriptions.
The following amounts have been
paid, up to noon today:

plan whereby the stock. which means
control OF the company. would he safe
guarded III the interest Of the policy
holders
The Official Statement

follows:
Immediately on learning that Mr..
Morgan had acquired this stock, l called
upon him personally and requested
statement as TO his intentions concern
ing tho same. He replied that in ac-
quiring the stock he had but 4 single
purpose-namcly, 10 prevent its being
sold to different individuals, aud thus
make it impossible that AT the expira-
tion of the present voting trusteeship
this great interest could be used to the
detriment of policy holders. He stated
further that be desired the cooperation
of the insurance department In work
ing out n plan whereby the stock
which means the control of the com
pany-would be safcguarded in the in
ierest Of the policy holders, and that

by him save with the concurrence of
the insurance department.

Ter of so placing the control of the |
