limits. The hoard of directors was
authorized to look further into the
matter.
The proposition of organizing
county agricultural society elected
some discussion. after the report OF
committee had ueen made, some
believing that it would not be. q
success financially, places whore theys
have been held being taken tor ex-z
amples. It was decided, however,
that Morrison county could make good,
and it was voted on favorably, and a
committee of Austin Koslosky, w. III.
Ryan, B. Burton, L. O. Wessell and
IS. e. Vasaly was appointed to bring
the matter to u conclusion. =,
A letter from Congressman Lind
bergh stated that if Little Falls
wanted the government building site
bought soon. it would be advisable
tor the club to notify the authorities
through him of the immediate need
of such federal building. The
board of directors were authorized to
forward appropriate resolutions.
The Swanson road matter, which
the club thought was a thing Of the
past, bobbed up again. 1t will be
remembered the Swansons claimed
balance of 800 due them on the
Pierz road contract. It not being
accepted by the committee when
asked to inspect the completed road
in the fall of 1905, the Swanson Bros.
signed an acknowledgement that the
road was not up to specifications and
that same would be brought up to
standard the next spring.
Their contention is that they came
back the same fall (the waiver W as
dated Nov. 9, 1905. and finished the
contract, which was approved by 5.
Trebby, the overseer. The members
of the committee now In the city are
not aware of an acceptance, and as the
other members are out of the city, two
not now being residents, it will be
hard matter to have a meeting of the
same The fact that three years
passed around before this claim was
put in does not appear good to the
members of the club, and as far as
they are concerned, the matter will
likely be closed one.
Geo. Kiewel thought that something
should be done in the matter of secur.
ing better freight rates in and out OF
Little Falls. especially out, so that
Little Falls would at least have the
advantages of some of the towns

Plant Matters Taken up--
Agricultural 9ociety

! The meeting Of the Commercial
club Monday night proved. to be quite
an interesting session. There was Q
good attendance, and number OF
matters were taken up and discussed.
The committee On seed potatoes had
talked with T. III. Dewey IN regard
to securing, them. Mr.. Dewey stated
that Early Ohios were the BEST potato
for this country, and that at this time
he thought good seed could be
obtained at about forty cents. The
seed is to be sold at cost, and Mr..
Dewey offered to get q car and handle
them free OF charge. provided the
club would SEQ that the potatoes were
taken of his hands. This mat with
the appoval OF the club, and the
matter was referred to the board OF
directors with power to act. -
A communication from q manu-
featuring concern, which puts out
various kind of clothings was read.
A representative of the concern was
here recently in answer to a. better
forwarded by the board of directors,
and was very we'll satisfied with the
city and the Inducements offered. The
letter stated that at the present time

consider Little Falls. =
The sailing station proposition was
taken up and evoked much discussion
The company asks that they be
furnished suitable building and q
site; also contracts from farmers
agreeing to plant 100 acres OF
cocumbers. If the concern continues
in business at this point for five years
the building is to revert to them.
They stated that a building such as
they would want conld be put up for
$500 or $500. However, 1T is thou ght
that there is q building that will
serve the purpose that can ne bought
for q good deal less sum. President
Bergheim stated that q Morrill, town
farmer in the city a few days ago
told him that he raised $500 worth OF
cucumbers on sir acres of land, which
product he disposed of at the Foley
plant. The raising of cucumbers, It il
thought, would appeal to the smaller
farmer, near the city, and q good deal
could he grown within the city

camp would do without him."
This same thought occurred to
Rowland a dozen times during the
next two hours. Macdonald seemed
to be the life and law of the camp
and he wondered more and more
at Thorne's demeanor. The camp
chiefs and gang foremen whom
they met seemed to stand in a
certain awe of the senior engineer

He began to note that there was a
strong nervousness about Thorne
when they were among the men,
an uneasy alertness in his eyes, as
though he were looking for some
particular face among those they
encountered. MacDonald's shrewd
eyes observed his perplexity, and

For an hour afr breakfast the
two men were busy with papers
maps, and drawings relative to the
camp work. Rowland had kept In
close touch with operations from
Chicago and by the time they were
ready to leave for outside inspec'
tlon he was confident that he could
take hold without the personal as
distance of either Gregson or
Thorne. Before that hour had
passed he was certain of at least
one other thing-that it was not in
competency that was taking the
two senior engineers back to the
home office. He had half expected
TO find the working-end in the
same disorganized conditions as its
chiefs. But If Gregson and Thorne
had been labOring under tremen'
dous strain of some kind it was not
reflected in the compaDy's work, as
shown in the office records which
the latter had spread out before
him.
