Judge Keith Makes Correction.

A few days ago an article appeared
in the daily papers in which it was
stated that the Mile Laos reservation
was given to the state by the United
States under the swamp land act. AS
a matter of fact the state has never
acquired an acre of swamp land in
the Mile Laos reservation, so.called.
Judge Keith sent the following letter
to the Duluth News-Tribune and the
same appeared in recent issue of
that paper:
To the Editor of the News-Tribune:
Pardon the remark, but the above is
a bum item.
The Mile Laos Indian reservation
comprising townships AZ, ranges Is,
and 26 ~, and township 43, range 27,
was entered 1883 to 1891 by Amherst
81. Wilder and Dwight M. Sabin with
soldiers additional scrip: that is to
say the portions most valuable for
pine.
The balance was taken by settlers
with presumption and homestead
entry. Outside the school sections
ZIG and 36) the state acquired no land
therein. -
All OF which is easily verified in
your Duluth land Office. That the
Indian was wronged in the deal, as
usual, goes without saying. Yours
truly, CHARLES KEITH.

and, having attended the recent con-
gress in st. Paul and heard the prin-
cipal speakers, he was equipped with
adequate information to speak intelli-
gently on the matter. Of course, in
the short period of time allotted him,
Mr.. Skahen was unable to 20 far into
details, but he gave a good idea OF
what conservation meant in general.
Superintendent Marshall would like
to have, and invites, other persons to

his whole soul is in his work-and

Value of FrienshiD.

True friendship is one of the great
est blessings upon earth. It makes
the cares and anxieties of life sit east
~, provides us with partner in our
aff1iction, and is sure resort against
every accident and difficulty. For a
summer table beverage try golden
grain belt beer. It is a food tonic
which does away with that tired-out
and fatigued feeling. Order of your
nearest dealer or be supplied by Sjo-

The Farmer be DID

Editor Princeton Union:
Will you kindly allow space in your
paper that I may give some of the
reasons why the farmer enjoys (?) the
visits of a certain element of So
called sportsmen?
I have never refused anyone the
privilege of hunting when or where he
chooses on my land, and people are
always welcome so long as they are
willing to give me the same gentle
manly treatment that they have a
right to expect
On Tuesday morning, September -,
at $50, discovered an automobile in
my yard and beside it stood three
citizens of your village. They at
once started for the fields and at
about 10 o'clock they returned and
left the field to render them any assis-
lance they might need, but I found
them fully capable of caring for them
selves. They had already given their
dogs bath in the horse trough and
were refreshing themselves from the
pump. The fact that their kindness to
the dogs would necessitate my empty
Ing and washing the trough before the
horses would drink did not seem to
bother them any, nor did they offer
any apologies. L soon returned to
my work and at their pleasure they
left without so much as saying,
'.Thank you.
Now if those fellows would offer to
present the farmer with a couple of
birds or give him a chance to buy
some from them in return for favors
shown them, either would be appreci-
ated, as few farmers have the time to
hunt at this season of the year.
The average hunter drives his auto
or team into the farmers yard to be
cared for till his return from the field.
On his return he is tired and in a
hurry to get home. He does not stop
to consider that the farmer has fed
those birds all summer that he and
other human "sponges" may have a
days sport. The farmer is only con-
sidered by him as necessary evil
and why should be be treated with
respect by sportsmen?
Now, Mr.. Editor, would rather be
considered the meanest man in Bogus
Brook township than to stand this
treatment without protest.

In the United States court at Port
land, Oregon, the patents to 81 timber

ley in obtaining the entry men and
making the filings. In confederation
OF the fact it was shown that all CORE

The Transformation of Satan

According to what DR.. A. c. Dixon
had to say to large congregation in
Moody church, Chicago, the horns,
barbed tail, cloven hoof and general
terrifying makeup which used to form
the delineations OF the "Father of
Hades" have gone out of fashion.
Instead of these he has put on frock
coat, silk hat, white tie, a high
collar and patent-leather pumps and
may be seen cavorting around pink
teas and ladies soirees looking benev-
client and trying to appear intellec-
tual.

The material has arrived for the re-
construction of the two bridges over
the Rum river at this place and a
crew of men has commenced work on
the West Branch structure. New
stringers and new planking will be
put in and, when completed, the
bridges will be in substantial shape.
During the progress of the work foot
passengers will be permitted to cross
the bridge as usual but vehicles will
be compelled to ford the river, which
is not difficult in consequence of the
low stage of water prevailing.
