A Tragedy at Bagley.

We are informed that as Arne Hig-
den, Lars Omdahl and Chas. Lind
quist were about to take a drive
Monday night at about $3.50 they
thought they would pull out the
buggy and get everything ready be-
fore bringing out the horses, so they
preceded to business. When the
buggy was brought from the shed
they were surprised to find perched
in the back seat, very loving couple
with arms clasped in lovers embrace,
and SO devoted to each other that
they never realized the situation un-
til they were drawn out into Main
street and placed on exhibition be-
fore multitude of spectators. How
ever, the parties are very respectable
young people, and their names are
withhe cid, and excused for their fool
ishness this time; but dear people,
select some other place for counting
besides the buggy shed because we
have a number of night hawks in
Bagley.-Bagley Independent.

About the Friend We Lost.

The Bemidji Pioneer, in trying to
print all the legitimate news it can
get it's hands on has lost sub
scriber. 1t gave the details of "a d.
vorce case, the facts being a matter
of court record. One of the parties
involved wanted the paper mot to
say anything about it," but the pub
Usher thought otherwise, claiming
the case to just as legitimate piece
of news as a wedding. The Pioneer
is right, and not withstanding the
fact that it has lost subscriber, it
will, 90 right along in the path of
duty printing the news and never
turn a hair. The decent newspaper
keeps still about enough things with
out lending an ear to every fellow
who wants something about himself
suppressed. There are lot of people
who can thank their lucky stars that
the newspapers do not print some OF
the things they know.-Sauk, Centre

VICE EXPERTS REPORT.

way is confronted by the problems
Investigated by the Minneapolis vice
commission, will read with interest
the deductions made by this body of
Investigators. all
: About a year ago Minneapolis
wiped out it's red light district, al
though powerful effort which in
cluded some sympathy from the may
or and chief of police attempted to
prevent it. sa- -
1t has been charged by those who
believe that to pen the social evil in a
prescribed district under police SUI
pervision is the best solution of the
problem that. Minneapolis has be-
come invested with undesirable char
acters. s1.
The vice commission apparently
does not believe that the situation
is as shocking now as under the old
order of things for it holds up to
scorn the idea of segregation. s.
Here are some of it's recommends
lions: = ~
A definite and continuous policy of
vice suppression in connection with
the enforcement of existing laws.
A permanent moral commission to
assist in carrying out that policy.
Regulation of hotels and lodging
houses. -.
Proper instruction in the public
schools. -
A city hospital exclusively for pa
tients afflicted with insidious diseas-
es. -es,a-z~ ,
Power of the State board of medi-
cal examiners to control "quacks.'
A state law requiring medical GER
LITIGATION of health as essential to
marriage. ~ w.
More school and public play
grounds and more provision for high
school athletics.
Better wages and improved econo-
mfcal conditions for girl employees:
| Only boys FL years old or older to
be employed as messengers.
Censorship of moving picture
shows and penny picture devices.
Elimination of girls as ushers in
theaters.
Increased police vigilance to keep
young people off streets at night.
Enforcement of laws against deal
ers in indecent post cards, etc.
A detention home for girls.
A lodging and boarding house for
girls as sought by the travellers aid
under the auspices of the Y. w. C.
| A. s.,5s ~-
After reviewing in detail segre-
cation in cities of the United States
and in Europe the commission an
nounces the following as among it's
disapprovals:
Segregation as means of coping
with the social evil.
The continental method of dealing
with the problem.
Medical inspection in a segregated
district. -
Public dance halls.
| Hotels: and rooming places that are
improperly conducted. -.
| Saloon restaurants.
| The commission found no traces in
Minneapolis of the white slave traf-.

port says, is growing at an alarm

TRAIL MADE FOR

During the summer there was
constructed 4 trail from Ely 20
the Gran Lake Portage, across the
Superior national forest, that is
regarded as Of Importance to the
preservation of the forests. It
was built to maintain a careful
fire patrol in future seasons and
to afford a means Of getting fire
apparatus and fighters into the
country in an emergency.
Right of way privileges were
solicited from the land owners
and in most cases were gladly
granted. Throughout the fire
season, a fire patrol will be main
tanned and will be kept in COM

trail was cut TO get in pack horses

ull(El(SITY< OF
'.STEEL TRUST

Although the United States
Steel corporation: has been popu-
larly known since its organiza-
ton as the biggest corporation in
the world, it is doubtful if the
immensely of it's operations Of
sheer weight of monetary values
has been generally understood,
says the New York Times. Gross
receipts have reigned as high az
$751;, 014,757 in a single year and
from the date of organization, on
April l, 1901, to the close of the
last fiscal year, December 81,
1910, have reached the staggering
aggregate of $5,813,243,724.
The United States govern
ment's total receipts from Gus
toms and all other sources of
revenue in the fiscal year ended
on June 80, last, were only $780,
100, 9O6, total which the Steel
corporation not only exceeded in
its banner year, 1907, but again
in the year ended on December
81, last, when the gross earnings
were $7O3,961, 424.
The next lagest corporate earn
ings in this country, if not in the
world, are those Of the big rail-
road systems, and these are only
a fraction Of the Steel corporation
showing. The Pennsylvania sys-
tenn, for instance, which comes
next in ine,e showed gross earn
ings last year of $346,215, 900.
The Southern Pacific, which il
next, showed for the fiscal year
ended on June 80, last, gross earn
ings of $132,620,O00, and the
Atchinson, Topeka and Santa -Fs
$107 ,565,0OO. ALI. three of these
aggregated only 1856, 100000.
Perhaps a more impressive
measure Of the corporation = posi-
ton in the industrial world 10 the
fact that: its output of steel is
larger than; that oprodueed in ssll
the plants of Germany and Great
Britain and more than three times
as large as that; Of France.

to call attention to two reports of

al in one, Bulletin APO, "Feld-
spar Deposits Of the. United
States" by E. S. Basin, publish
ed in 1910, the feldspar, deposits
constituting this '*potash or"
had been described, and their
present unavailability as CONNER
cial sources of potash by any
known process set forth. The
other report, on "Potash. Salts,
Their Uses and Occurrences in
the United States" by w. G.
Phalen, published last winter,
discusses all known sources of
potash and the practical problems
of extraction that affect the COM
mercial utilization Of these vari-
Gus potash-containing materials,
ranging from granite to wool
scourings and seaweed.
Prospective investors in potash
mines owe it to themselves to util-
ize the publications of the Geologi-
cal Survey under the Interior De-
partment and of the Bureau Of
Soils under the Department of
Agriculture, to both Of which Con-
gress has made appropriations for
the investigation Of possible
sources of potash. While the pri-
mary object of these investigations
is to find American potash, it is
also the purpose of the Govern
ment bureaus 10 furnish the public
all available information on this
or any other subjects that may
serve to protect American capital,
especially that of small investors
who are prone to rush into new
mining schemes.
