PROCLAMATION

Now, that another year is rapidly drawing to a
close, it is fitting that we should turn away from
our various occupations and professions in life,
and render thanks unto Almighty God for the
many blessings with which he has frightened
our lives throughout the year
The great blessing of peace has dwelt in our
midst and an all seeing eye has watched and
guided our course.
Therefore, in recognition of these benefits and
blessings, and following the recommendation of
the President of the United States, l, Simeon S.
Pennewill, Governor of the State of Delaware,
do set apart

Mr.. Gemmell. "There will be no such
train."
Spike No. 2 was applied to the in
termittent explosion of Dame Rumor
to the effect that the Northern
Pacific was to absorb the Minnesota
& International.
''There is no excuse for digging
up this old bit of felton," said Mr..
Gemmell.
AS to the Sunday train from the
Twin Cities, as was run last summer,
Mr.. Gemmeu said:
eve still are undecided as to
whether such a train will be put on
this summer"
1t is believed that this will go on
after July 1, when the railroad fare
is to be increased from two to three
cents a mile.

Exchange.
FARMERS REQUESTED TO AID

Farmers of Bemidji, Beltrami and
surrounding counties are urged to
bring specimens of soil fertility to
be displayed here at any exhibition
being arranged by the newly organ

After Which Next Step in Charges of
Malfeasance Will Be Decided
Upon.
PETERSON COMES TO BEM1DJ1
Believes Public Indignation, if Moth.
ing Else Will Force Sheriff to
Soon Quit.

st. Paul, Mimi, June 13.-(Daily
Pioneer Special Service. Ut is un-
derstood that Governor Eberhart
has informed Attorney General Simp-
son that there must be no further de-
lay in charges filed by Viggo Peter
son, chairman of the Beltrami board
of commissioners against Sheriff A.
B. Hazen of this county, alleging
Office.
The attorney general has had these
charges since May % and so far has
failed to give written opinion.
When Governor Eberhart returned
to the capitol, yesterday, from his
recent trip to Fargo and northern
Minnesota, one of the first things he
did was to take up the Hazen
charges. To his surprise, he found
that the attorney general had re-
manned silent on the subject. The
governor is said to have made it
plain to the attorney general that
some action must be taken ON his
part without further delay.
= 1t is expected that the written
opinion by the attorney general will
be in the governors hands within
"a hours. While awaiting this
tardy opinion, the governors Office
has not been asleep on the case and it
is understood that as soon as the
written opinion is received there will
be some interesting sidelights.

GORDON BOOSTS NORTH
Lieutenant Governor Surprised at
What He Saw Between Walker
and Cass Lake.
THINKS SOIL SURVEY" NEEDED

Sam Y. Gordon OF Browns valley
lieutenant governor of Minnesota,
left Walker yesterday for St. Paul.
having altered his plans to come to
Bemidji. He delivered a commence
ment address at Chisholm Friday
evening and attended the meeting OF
the Northern Minnesota Editorial
association at Park Rapids Saturday.
Today he is back to Browns Valley
and his editorial desk.
From Walker to Cass Lake.
After leaving Park Rapids, Mr..
Gordon went to Glengarry, near
Walker. From there he took a boat
up the lake, and made the last stage
of trip to Cass Lake, fifteen miles,
through the pine forests, going from
there to St. Paul via Duluth.
81 was struck all the way by the
evident fertility of the SOIL" said
Mr.. Gordon in Duluth. "Here and
there along the road was a settlers
cabin with little clearing around
it. Near the cabin was his garden,
and most of them were gardens of
which any man might be proud.
Seen as they were in the center of a
wilderness, they impressed me as the
best evidence we have that this Nor
thern country has opportunities.
~ Can Overcome Wilderness.
ri believe the state should en-
courage the settlers of the northern
part. They are pioneers, doing a
great work in demonstrating that the
wilderness can be overcome, that the
soil is fertile and that it can be made
productive by an intelligent appli-
cation of farming methods and hard
work.
"What we need most now is a. soil
survey. We should have specific, &C.
curate information to give the pros
pective settler. AS it is, the state
doesn't really know what it has to
offer. Different men want to go in
to different branches of farming,
and the state should have data at
hand to show them where the best
results may be expected in the branch
they wish to follow.
Convinced By Glover.
"I noticed here and there along
the road between Walker and Cass
Lake, wild stump land on which
clover was growing. When clover
will grow wild like that, one doesn't
need to delve far to discover that it
is fine pasture land and that the op-
portunities for dairying are awaiting
those who will come and take them.
II am firm believer in the recla-
nation project that was started in a
small way at the last session of the
legislature. believe it should be
extended and that money spent in
preparing land for the settler will be
we'll spent, even if no return is made
to the general funds of the state.'

Ordinance introduced Compelling
Them to Also Shut Up Sundays

EHOflS W dluelu Tie peuulIS Or
dinance limiting saloons to the
fourth ward by charging the terri
tory met with firm and final opposi-
ton by the city council at it's regular
meeting last night.
The ordinance came up for it's
second reading and was open for the
only time to amenrment, There was
some sentiment in favor of permit
ting the saloon limit to continue to
be enforced so far as the building at
Minnesota and Fourth, recently va
Gated by Christ Olson, was concerned.
Alderman Smart believed that the
property would be unnecessarily de-
preciated in value if it were to be
shut out of the saloon limit.
Bisiar Throws a Bomb.
This aroused Alderman Bisiar who
handed out a little bomb in an as
sertion backed by papers to prove
that the owners Of the building at
tempted to secure lead pipe cinch"
on tenants by providing in the lease
that if the tenant buys beer from the
company which owns the building,
the rent is just half what. it would
be to IAN outsider"
The building in question is owned
by the Duluth Brewing & Mating
company and while the company had
no representatives at the meeting, it
did have friends who asserted that no
more progressive or fair brewing
company does business here than
this.
All Amendments Turned Down.
Nevertheless, the council could
not see it's way clear to amend the
ordinance in any way which Mayor
Parker said should either be passed
as it is or not at all and the final
vote was unanimously in favor of
the original ordinance which now
cannot be amended and which will
become a city law after the next
reading.
Wedge Urges New Park.
First steps looking toward FORM
ing the magnificent tract of natural
timber across Lake Bemidji, in and
adjoining East 'Bemidji, into state
park were taken when, after A. G..
Wedge, representing the Commercial
club, brought the matter to the at
tention Of the council. 1t is hoped
that this property, known as the
Ruggles tract, may be secured by
the state and in order to determine
just what can be done, the park COM
mittee, of which Knute Roe is chair
man, with Moberg and Brown men,
bers, was instructed to act with
President Burke of the Commercial
