operations are carried on all the year

5000 inhabitants built on the old
Irving townsite on Green Lake, with
the business section on the lower
ground near the outlet and the resi-
dence portion extending along the
lake up over higher ground. Instead
of prairies beyond see forests of
noble pine trees all around. A boul-
evard laid out along the lake shore.
The Carnegie library in a public park
facing the lake. Just about so lies
Bemidji on the lake with the same
name, thru which courses the Missis-
sippi river. Instead of locating the
townsite on bare cut-over lands, the
town. has been laid out among the
standing pine. Turnout the resident
section and along the lake shore
stand Norway, white and jack pine
About the first question of the ten
derfoot is how to distinguish the var
ieties Of the pine trees. The streets
are laid out wide with stone curbs
outside of the boulevards. Nine
squares with connecting streets in
the business portion are paved with
cement. The city has many fine
buildings: The court house would do
credit to any county in the state. In
stead Of a rough frontier town with
shacks and crude buildings FREEDOM
mating, as we expected to find in a
town not much more than ten years
old, we saw a fine little modern city,
alive and progressive. True, there
are numerous saloons, where the lum-
berjacks and others are feeced out

Mimnaugh's Big Ten Dsys' Sale.

Beginning at 9 o'clock on Friday
morning, January -, Mimnaugh Will
inaugurate a great ten days sale
Those who have attended Mimnaugh's IS
sales in the past know what this
means-and there are few of the buy
ing public in Newberry county and II,
neighboring territory who have not at
tended some of his mammoth sales
Minnaugh recently returned from New
York, where he secured the greatest
bargains in his mercantile career. EV-
cry line in his big department store is
complete, and he intends to get rid
of lots of goods in his great ten days
sale, to the mutual advantage Of pur-
chasers and himself.
Mimnaugh takes two pages in this
issue of The Herald and News to tell
about his bargains. 1t will repay eV-
cry reader of The Herald and News to
scan his announcement closely, be-
cause there is something in it OF In

CONES BACK HOME.
Mr.. Geo. T. Reid Will Move His Family
Back to Chappells, and Will In
crease His Business There.

Mr.. Geo. T. Reid, who las bea2 ii
the mercantile business at Chappells
for about 81 years, and for the greater
part of that time a resident at that
place, has decided to move his family
back to Chappells and to close out
his mercantile business in Bennetts
vile, where, for the past few years
he conducted a successful business,
and where his. family resided. Mr..
Reid had never entirely discontinued
business at Chappells, but he will now
enlarge his business there and will
give it his undivided attention.
Chappells, during the past fall, has
had most successful business on ac-
count of the fact that the price of cot
ton and cotton seed was just a little
above that of most other markets, and
as result farmers from Batesburg
ON one side and beyond Cross Hill on
the other marketed their cotton at
Chappells. There have been some
thing over 5000 bales received at
Chappells during the past season, and
of course that means the spending of
a considerable sum with the mer-
chants Of that town.
The Herald and News is pleased to
know that Mr.. Reid and his family will
again be regarded as permanent citiz-
ems Of this county, and that he will
increase his business operations at
Chappells.
Mr.. Reid occupies the old Lipsconb
home, which is one Of the most desir-
able country homes in this section Of
the State.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 6, 1911.
Nv Dear Mr.. Aull: thank you very
much for your kind editorial on the
address which I delivered at the New
berry chamber of commerce banquet
and am gratified to note your endorse
ment of my views as to the agricultur-
al policy that should be pursued by
the farmers of the State.
note the marked paragraph OH the
first page referring to the darkness
which surrounds the union station in
Newberry, and stating that it is un-
derstood the reason the city council
did not put a light in Friend street
was that this company objected to a
light being. placed closer than thirty
yards of the track. This is matter
about which I have no personal knowl-
edge, but am bringing it to the at
sention Of Mr.. E. H. Coapman, vice.
president and general manager OF this
company, with request that he as
certain the facts and advise me.
Yours truly,
- W. W. Finley,
: President.

estate Highway Commission"

Editor The Herald and News: In
printing the good roads resolutions
passed by our carriers meeting in Co
lunbia January 2, the State misread
the first resolution as follows.
"Resolved l. That we favor the ap-
pointment of q State good roads as
sociation." This is a mistake. Any
one knows or ought to know that the
appointment of such an association
is an absurdity The resolution as
written and adopted was as follows:
Resolved /. That We favor the ap-
pointment of a State highway COM
mission.
I shall be very glad if you will make
this correction in the next issue OF
your paper. T. E. WICKER.

cial.)-Earl R. Blish, who has bean plain
tiff in a lawsuit against the Burlington
for almost three years seeking heavy
damages for the loss of leg. and the
suit is now pending in the state supreme
court, yesterday reached settlement
of his claim with the company. The de
PENDANT is to pay him $4,000 and the costs
of the litigation so far. Mr.. Blish re-
ceived the injury on July /, 1909, while
acting as fireman on the switch engine
in the Plattsmouth yard. His engine was
run by Mr.. Nelson and the crew was
backing north when an extra freight
struck the tank of the engine. Mr.. Bllsh,
who had heard the warning too late to
save himself was in the act OF springing
out Of the cab when the collision occurred
and the tank was damned against the
engine so as to pin him fast. It was
some time before he could be released
His foot was afterwards amputated.
