FOLEY BROS, WILL BUILD

Officials Still Mum" as to Route of
Thief River IIs.DuIuth
Line.

Foley Bros. of St. Paul have been
awarded the contract for the con-
struction of the 500 branch line
from Thief River Falls to the
Brooten branch, connecting Thief
River Falls with Duluth by direct
line, and also giving Duluth another
short line to Winnipeg.
The terms of the contract specify
that the work must be finished
within a year.-Duluth Evening
Herald.
The above item of news, relative
to the mnch-discussed extension of
the 500" railroad from Thief River
Falls to Duluth, will be read with
intense interest by the people of Be-
midi and vicinity.
There has been much discussion
as to just where the $500" surveyors
would run the line passing east and
west through this territory and it is
beginning to be the general belief
that the road will come very close
to Bemidji. While it is possible
that the road may not build directly
into Bemidji, it is certain that it will
run not farther than seven miles,
either north or south of this city.
Local business men await with
considerable interest the official
announcement as to just where the
road will strike, coming towards Be-
midi from Thief River Falls.

New York, May 27.-J. r. Morgan,

justed. The friction between the two
continued, however, and at last Sec.
rotary Nagel put the matter squarely
up to President Taft, saying that
either he or Mr.. North would have to
leave the service, as existing condi-
lions between them were impossible.
Director North held to the belief
that the census bureau was an indie
pendent institution and that he was
responsible only to the president. A
congressional enactment put the cen
sus bureau under the department Of
commerce and labor, however, and
Secretary Nagel felt that in spite of
the great powers conferred by con-
gress on the director that Official
should be subordinate to the cabinet
officer in charge of the department.
It was because of this friction that
Director North was finally forced to
step out.

GASOLINE LAUNCH
CARRIED over DAN
-Four Persons Are Drowned al
Grand Rapids, Wis.

Grand Rapids, Wis, May 27.-Fou1
persons were drowned and four 9th
ers rescued from capsized gasoline
launch which was carried through the
sluice gates of the dam of the Con.
solidated Water Power company OF
this city and dashed to the rocks be.
low. The drowned are: Miss Bessie
Anderson, Miss B. Bogiger, Miss May
Forse and Ralph Anderson.
The unfortunate party went up the
river to a place on Big island called
Lovers nook to roast marshmallows.
Upon their return, in attempting to
make landing and not knowing the
gates of the dam were opened, the
swift current caught the stern end of
the craft and all were carried to the
river below. Screams for help brought
party of rescuers, but four members
of the party became exhausted before
help arrived. The remaining mem.
bers were almost exhausted, but were
resuscitated after strenuous efforts.

by former Senator Hopkins aids to
mead Oft the break to Lorimer, but
they were unavailing. The dramatic
last act of the deadlock, which has
Waged since Jan. 20, played to a
small crowd.
In the many joint ballots of the
deadlock nearly $50 candidates have
been listed for the office of United
States senator, the great majority Of
them being Democrats.
OF the eighty-nine house members
who voted for Senator Lorimer forty
seven were Democrats and forty-two
Republicans. In the senate six Dem
ocratfc senators voted for Lortmer.
Sketch Of New Senator.
Although William Lorimer's prog
ress in politics has been steady and
consistent from the time when he be-
gan securing city contracts for his
firm of contractors until he was elect
ed to the United States senate he
never can be president, for he was
born in England.
Mr. LOrlmer's biography IN the con-
gressional directory is one of the
briefest, about fifty words, and omits
to mention that he first saw the light
in 1861. At the age of five he was
brought to this country by his par
ents. At the age of twelve he worked
as a sign painters apprentice. Later
he labored at the stock yards, of
which in after days he was known as
the 'boss." Next he gathered in the
n1ckels on a street car. Meanwhile
he had become political factor. He
became contractor, was called the
"blende boss'' in the newspapers and
was counted on to deliver the packing
house district to the Republican
ticket. In 1892 he was defeated for a
county office, but three years later
he was elected to the Fifty-fourth
congress-, where he has remained,
with the exception Of one term, ever
since. The Fifty-seventh congress
saw him not, for he was beaten in his
own stock yards district by one who
was comparatively mere STRIPPING,
John ]. Feely, then in his twenty sixth
year. This was in the. Second dis
trict. Mr.. Lorimer then moved into
the Sixth district, which promptly
sent him back to Washington.

Folklore Stories.

The Journal Of American Folklore
has some interesting folk tales Of the
Nez Perces Indians:
"Once the sun fell down from the
sky just about sunrise. Mole caught
It and held it up until people got there
and helped him to shove it back. The
sun had, meant to roll along on the
ground instead Of in the sky. It was
from holding up the sun that .Mole's
hands are bent so far back.
"Coyote and Cloud ran race. Cloud
bet storm and Coyote clear weather
They started far away to the south,
and for awhile Coyote was in the lead.
Then Cloud made fruits Of all kinds
to grow in front Of Coyote, and he,
looking back and seeing Cloud far be-
hind. stopped to eat. In this way
Cloud caught up and won. This is
why we have storms in winter time"
