WANT ROAD REPAIRED
Commercial Club to Join Farmers in
Asking Council to Put Highway
in First Glass Condition.
BUSINESS NOW GOES ELSEWHERE

Saying that they were able to haul
to Bemidji only under the greatest
difficulty and that they now took
most of their produce to Wilton and
Solway, when they preferred to bring
it to Bemidji, several farmers from
the country northwest of this city
conferred with the directors of the
Commercial club Saturday as to the
best method of procedure to get the
road put in good condition. AS a re-
suit of the meeting, F. S. Arnold, F.
S. Lycan, A. G. Wedge, Jr., and G.. E.
Carson were appointed a committee
to lay the matter before the council
tonight.
1t appears that many Of the farm
ers in the towns of Northern, Maple
Ridge, and Liberty are unable to get
good loads to Bemidji because of a
bad fill just after the road turns west
off Irvine avenue above Fairview ad-
dition, and because of a bad stretch
along the west side of the Red Lake
tracks. County Surveyor Bliler made
a plat of the road showing the various
elevations.
At the meeting Saturday. it was
proposed that the city of Bemidji and
the town board of Northern COOP
crate in opening a quarter mile of
road due west from where the pres
ent road turns north at the Red Lake
tracks. This quarter mile would con-
meet with a north and south road
which goes into a country now con-
tributary to Wilton and SolWay and
would give those farmers a good d.
rect road to Bemidji. At present the
road follows the tracks north and is
badly graded.
With the proposed quarter mile
built, the swale near the corner of
Irvine avenue would be the only bad

TO MEET
AT l:}0

Owing to the inability of some of
the members to be present at 10 a..
NJ, the county board of equaliza ton
met and adjourned until 1870 this
afternoon.
At the session this afternoon, the
board expects to hear a committee
of Bemidji business men present a
petition signed by practically every
business interest in the city asking
that the assessment of the Crookston
Lumber company be lowered. This
committee was ready to go before the
commissioners at the morning ses-
sion but as Mr.. Peterson had not yet
arrived in the city, the meeting was
adjourned until 1870.
Judge Spooner and M. S. Mills
paugh, of Little Falls, were also on
hand this morning ready to appear
for the Pine Tree Lumber company.
The company is Weyerhauser inter-
est and is protesting on some tax
estimates. The board sent out
cruiser to look over the timber with
orders to report today. A message
was received from him by County Au-
ditor George this morning to the eff
feet that he would be unable to ap-
hnfnro hn
row.

ABOLISH THE i. s.

By$United Press.
Washington, Aug. 19-Despite
President Taft's veto message an
nouncing his disapproval of the bud
get bill because it abolished the Unit
ed States commerce court, the senate
this afternoon passed reframed
budget bill with the abolition of the
commerce court included in an a.
mendment offered by Senator Over
man, of North Carolina, cuttinff off
all appropriations from the court. The
measure was adopted by vote of IS
to 20.

President Does Not Wish to Sign Any,
thing Which Would Abrogate
Hay-Pauncefoot Treaty.
NOTHING PASSED OVER VETO
Senate and House Members Fail to
Agree on Any Matter Needing
thirds Vote.

Washington, Aug. 19.-Important
legislation must be acted upon before
congress adjourns. 1t stands today as
follows:
Panama canal bill, before the pres
ident; legislative, executive and judi
cial appropriation bill, approved by
the house and now before the senate
with the provision abolishing the
commerce court; naval, sundry civil
and army appropriation bills in con-
ference between the two houses; the
general deficiency appropriation bill,
before the senate committee on ap-
preparations; the Indian appropria-
ton bill, conference report pending
in the senate
Depends on Taft.
While adjournment is expected this
week, the date is generally conceded
to depend upon the presidents atti-
tude toward the Panama canal bill
and the legislative, executive and jul
dicial appropriation bills.
His veto of the latter measure last
week was based upon it's provisions
for the adjustment of the commerce
court and the blishment of a sew
en- year tenure in the civil service
and the house has again risked the
veto by passing the measure with the
commerce court provision in it, The
senate will determine early in the
week whether it will endorse the
measure in this form.
Action is Doubtful.
Leaders of both houses are conf
dent that the remaining work on the
overdue appropriation bill could be
disposed of in three days were the
contingencies of the presidential We
to removed. The president has made
it clear to members of both houses
that he does not favor the free toll
provision of the Panama canal bill,
but he has not as yet asserted a pur-
pose to veto the measure
Thus far congress has not succeed
ed in overriding any of the presi-
dents vetos and it is not likely that
either the legislative appropriation
bill or the Panama bill could be re-
passed by two-thirds vote if vetoed
this week Those tariff and appropri-
alton measures which the house has
repassed over the veto have failed in
the senate, and the single bill which
the senate repassed, that affecting
the claims on the Corbett irrigation
tunnel, failed by six votes of repass-
ing in the house.
Agreement to Follow.

which no doubt many have heretofore
been appraised and for that reason have
been unable to attend TO business or my
duties official or otherwise.
My unfortunate attack of the dreaded
maiady has caused grave apprehension
on the part of quite a few local people,
many of my friends have been so,icitous
about my welfare and speedy recovery,
for each and all of whom l have a ten
der remembrance and most kindly feey-
ing. But there have been many whose
greatest concern seemed to be that in
some mysterious manner they would con-
tract the disease from me. To those
offer the following explanation: 1
became i'll during the night of March q
and called Or. J. w. Taylor next morn
ing. The following day morning he call
cd again and told me that he had to
leave town. That was Friday. Late the
same afternoon / had grown so much
worse that DIR. A. Il. Riley was called.
apparently and did improve materially,
but on Sunday morning a few papules
were observed on my face and hands.
On Monday morning April /, DIR. $. !.
Wedding the county health officer, at
the instance of DR.. Riley, called aud
after thorough examination pronounced
the trouble "chicIsen-pox. After that
time everyone who called was informed
that had chicken-pox and those who
had not previously had that disease left
my room at once. On Monday April s,
after | had sufficiently recovered to
have been sitting up six days, DR.. $. J.
Wedding again called and on examina-
ton pronounced my trouble Smallpox
and thereupon placed myself and those
in the house under quarantine.
After that date until the quarantine
was raised. April 2j, no one, except the
did come inside my yard, and did
not during that time leave my premises
and was not to my knowledge within
transmisslble distance of a passerby or
anyone,at least no nearer than my front
porch. / did not know at the time l
became i'll and did not learn until
was quarantinod that l had been expos
ed to any contagious disease. l then
learned that the family of Mr.. w. y.
Render and my baby girl, of the Ma
tanzas neighborhood, whom / visited
March or 10 We're at that time and
subsequent thereto, of which they were
not aware. afflicted with some contagion
which their attending physician on March
81 diagnosed as ''chicken-pox.'
In accordance with the physicians in
struction.I have used every preoaution,
| since being appraised of the fact that
| had Smallpox and before as well to
prevent the incubation of others and
TRULY regret that anyone should become
So undaily alarmed as to feel apprehen-
sive lest he should in some mysterious
manner contract the malady from me.

spirit of criticism but that the facts
may be known. In fairness to the ply
scians who diagnosed my case will say
that according to my judgment there
was not the slightest similarity in the
looks of the eruntions on my person
when they first appeared and their ,ap-
pearance a few days thereafter.
