FISHEL FAMILIES BUY LAND.
Father and Son Occupy More Than
Half Section in Liberty.

Jacob Fishel and family and his
son Lewis Fishel and family have
sold their holdings near Wood, Iowa,
and have acquired more than half a.
section of land in the town of Lib
erty, about twelve miles northeast of
Bemidji Mr.. Fishel reports that he
is more than pleased with the pros
poets of land Investment and crop
raising in northern Minnesota. It
is his object to induce his friends
from Iowa to come into this new
country and make their homes. He
said, 81 cannot see how man can
make a mistake in buying land in
this portion of the country, if he
buys carefully and right. It is well
worth mans trip up here from any
state to investigate opportunities in
Beltrami county, and I cannot con-
ceive of anyone making mistake in
Investing in soil that is as good as
any anywhere
If this country could secure more
settlers of the Fishel caliber it would
be but short time before land would
double in value and crops increase in
proportion.

Petitions Are to Be Circulated Among
Service Users Asking That
Change Be Made.
ALSO WANT BUILDING ERECTED
Company Will Be Urged to Put Up
Suitable Structure to House
The New Exchange.

No more coffee grinders for Be-
midi phone users if the movement
started at the Commercial club meet
ing last evening is carried out sue
cessfully. 1t is proposed to ask the
Northwestern Telephone Exchange
Company to install a central energy
system in Bemidji and to erect
substantial building to house the
plant. Such systems are used in all
large cities of the country.
A petition is to be circulated
among the business men and other
phone users of Bemidji. This petit
ton will ask the company to make
the proposed changes and will be in
charge of the public affairs commit
tee of the Commercial club of which
w. B. Lakin is chairman. Those.
who have talked with officials of the
phone company say that they believe
it will be possible to secure the
change.
A central energy system is one in
which the electricity used is all sent
out from the central plant. In snch-
a system, central is called by merely
raising the phone receiver from the
hook. When the hook comes up it
establishes an electrical connection
which flashes a small light on the
switch board. In the present system
central is called by turning a crank
and generating a current in the box
attached to the phone. The central
energy system is saver of time and
also does away with the necessity

the continuation of one begun last

his brothers and sisters and their
families; Ben Fairbanks and family:
the Bellefuile family and the Lede-
boro and Mcintosh families, also
cousins of Beaulieu.
1t is charged that these Indians,
while actually belonging to tribes
and bands of Chippewa Indians in
Michigan, Wisconsin and elsewhere,
have intruded upon the Indians of
the Minnesota tribes and by force OF
fraud, or both, have procured en-
rollment for themselves and the mem.
bers of their families as Indians OF
Minnesota, thereby succeeding in OBJ
tanning allotments, annuities and par
t1c1pation in councils and other priv.
lleges to the damage of Minnesota
Indians who alone are entitled there.
to. The prayer of the petitioners is
that the names of these Indians be
stricken from the rolls and that they
be not allowed to share in the Chin.
peWa tribal fund or any of the bene.
fits and advantages incident to mem.
bership in these bands.
The department of~the interior is
represented by Edward G. O'Brien al
Washington, and the defendants by
w. B. Carman of Detroit. At the
close of the hearing here evidence

Cases Will Come on For Trial Before
Fall Term of Federal Court at
Fergus Falls.
BEING BROUGHT BY FARMERS
Are Located North of Pitt and VIII
liams Near ripple Bay-Railroads
Now More Careful.

Crookston, August 7.-Attorneys
Charles Loring of this city, and AL
bert Chilgren of Williams, today
served agents of the Canadian North
ern with copies Of complaints in six
ty new damage suits growing out of
the loss from the forest fires in 1910.
The total amount sued for is a little
over 100000, and the cases will
come on for trial at the fall term OF
court, some going to the federal
court at Fergus Falls.
The same attorneys, with attor-
neys in several northern towns,
have already brought fifty suits,
twenty-five Of which were tried in
court and won, and twenty-eight
were amicably settled without trial.
The farmers who are bringing the
suits are located north of Pitt and
Williams, near Ripple Bay, and the
fire doing the damage was not the
main forest fire which swept Bau-
dette and vicinity the same fall.
AS result of the suits previously
tried, the Canadian Northern and
Great Northern have exercised the
greatest caution to prevent forest
fires, and while conditions have not
been as favorable for the spread of
1'res at any time since 1910, Though
tor time in June and early July the
forests were very dry had it not
been for extra care on the part of the
railroads, and vigilance of the state
foresters, serious fires would have
resulted
