empire, and partakes of the nature
of front page advertisement.
It has an element of truth in it.
The slashings wantonly left by the
lumberman must be cleared away
before the settler can make home,
but the clearing by fire is a costly
process. 1t burns up the vegetable
mould so necessary to warm up our
cold north-woods clays; in many
areas it burns down into the ground
and leaves ashes where before was
productive muck soil.
The intense heat destroys in large
measure the bacterial life that
swarms in the upper six inches of
soil, and is essential to profitable
crop growth. A more wasteful pro-
cess of clearing the land could
scarcely be conceived, and the
phrase can only originate in the
mind of man ignorant of the facts,
or wilfully oblivious of them.

RESPECT Law, SAYS BRENTS
Special Agent Says Guns Will Be Used
Only as Last Resort.

1t is not the intention, declares
Special Officer Brents, for him or
any of the men in the employ of the
Indian service to commit any acts of
lawlessness in connection with their
work of suppressing the sale of
liquor to Indians and the closing of
saloons.
I came here from Oklahoma for
the purpose of enforcing the orders
sent me by superior officers," said
Mr.. Brents, and the fact that 1 am
making Bemidji my home while oper-
ating in northern Minnesota shows
plainly that am not here for the
purpose of making undue trouble for
anyone, or for the purpose of dis
playing undue authority or embarras.

to arms in enforcing orders, shall
not hesitate, as last resort, to draw
my weapon.
1t is unfortunate that some men

in any person or firm who might be

The people of Bemidji and sur

AVIATOR TOMBSTONE
DIES IN Denver FALL

Denver. Nov. 18.-With one wing
tip of his machine crumpled like
piece of paper, Ralph tombstone,
holder of the worlds aeroplane alti-
tude record, dropped 500 feet
to his death at Overland park avia-
ton field while hundreds of specta.
tors watched the horrid descent of
the man and machine here yesterday.
Held still by horror for a minute,
the spectators finally recovered and
rushed towards the fattened wreck
age. Johnstone's body lay beneath
the engine of the blplane with the
white planes that had failed him in
his time of need, wrapped about it
like shroud. Nearly every bone
in his body was broken.
He had gambled with death once
too often, but he played the game to
the end, fighting coolly and grimly
to the last second to regain control
of his broken machine. Fresh from
his triumphs at Belmont park, where
he broke the worlds record for
altitude with a height of 9,714 feet,
tombstone attempted to give the
Colorado spectators an extra thrill
with his most daring feat, the spiral
glide, which has made the Wright
aviators famous. The spectators
got their trill, but it cost tombstone
his life.

.BRA|NERO PERFECTS PLANS
Huge Election Sign, Badges and Smoker
Voted for Development Meeting.

In telling of a meeting of the
Commercial club of that city the
Brainerd Daily Dispatch has this to
say:
Carl Zapffe announced that mat
tiers in regard to details for the com.
ing convention were progressing
satisfactorily. Badges, both ribbon
and button form had been ordered
and it was the intention to endeavor
to have every citizen who has the
interests of the community at heart
become boosters during the two
or three days the convention is
here.
A bureau of information will be
established, arrangements for a
smoker on the evening before the
convention opens are being perfected,
a large electric sign to be erected
across the street from the opera
house has been arranged for, and
everything seems to be moving
tremendously.
AT the close of the meeting on
motion of Mr.. Gemmell the secretary
was instructed to wire Secretary
Mackenzie at Bemidji in order that
it may be ascertained when he will
come to Bralnerd and meet with the
committee, w. H. Gemmell, Carl

Despite Fact Supplies are Becoming
Low in Some Places, Same Old
Prices Continue
JOHNSON EXPECTED TONIGHT
City Council Probably Will Settle Cues
ton of Renewing Licenses at
Monday Meeting.

For the first time since the action
OF the government, week ago, in
stopping the shipment of liquor,
there has today been a lull in the
activity of the Indian Bureau agents
and deputies in this vicinity.
This is explained by the fact that
w. E. Johnson, chief of the Indian
Bureau, is on his way to Bemidji
and that further action is being de-
layed awaiting his arrival. Johnson
is expected in Benidji tonight or TO-
morrow morning.
At Brainerd, more than ten car
loads of beer have been hauled in bv
the Minnesota & International from
Bemidji and other points to be re-
turned to the breweries in St. Paul
and Minneapolis. Practically all
such shipments are now on the way
back and no liquor is being handled
by the railroads.
On Monday night of next week.
the city council probably will settle
the question as to whether liquor IL
censes are to be renewed in Bemidji,
as result of the present activity of
the Indian Bureau. Applications
for licenses are pending.
Il do not see how we can take
money for liquor licenses now," said
a member of the council today. 1T
seems to me that to grant a license
and take the money would be almost
like getting it under false pretenses."
The saloons of Bemidjl continue
to do good business and there has
been no attempt to advance the
cost of drinks despite the fact that
in some of the places the supply is
running low.
The drug stores are also feeling
the effect of the new order and their
supplies of alcohol, whiskey and
wine for medicinal purposes are
already running low, with no way to
re.plenish them.

"City of Great Buildings" and nowhere in

Commissioner Clementson in Bemidii
Tells of Conditions in Burned
Timber up North
MANY DEAD RABBITS FOUND
With This Exception all the Animals
Escaped, Moose Making Bee
Line For Canada

The recent different falls of snow
have left the ground In a very dis
agreeable condition, in the district
around Spooner and Baudette which
was recently fire stricken, and
travelling on foot through the burnt
timber district is anything but
pleasant, says Hello Clementson, a
member of the board of county COM
missioners of Beltrami county, who
has been attending a meeting of the
county board held in this city.
According to Commissioner Glenn
entson, the snow has fallen on the
charred underbrush and timber that
was laid low by the terrible fire,
forming a sticky black slush that is
exceedingly annoying.
Mr.. Clementson states that the
fire drove all of the big game out of
the fire zone, and he believes that
but few deer or moose persisted in
the fire, as he had heard of no car
cases or bones that were discovered
after the flames had died down.
There is one peculiar feature of
the fire, with relation to wild ami
mails" says Mr.. Clementson. All
of the squirrels that Inhabited the
woods were apparently saved from
the flames and only the quickness of
action of the little fellows preserved
their lives. They burrowed deep in.
to the earth and remained there un-
til the surface had cooled, when they
emerged, none the worse for their
underground experience; and they
are now chattering as merrily as
ever. The carcasses of hundreds oil
rabbits were found after the fire, in.
dicating that these animals had been
unable to escape. The deer and
moose got out of that immediate
section, aud so far as I am able to
ascertain, none have returned, bu,
have gone to the south and south
east, while a goodly number I'm.
doubtedly made due north into
Canada"
Mr.. Clementson was the victim of
an accident. election day, which
came near costing him his life, but
from which be escaped with badly
bruised face, but was not seriously
injured. A large piece of wood flew
from a saw which was being operated
in his sawmill and hit him in the
face, the force of the blow being les
sened by hitting an obstruction,
otherwise the piece of timber would
undoubtedly have inflicted an ex.
ceedingly dangerous if not fatal in.
