COUNCIL TO ACT TONIGHT
Will Vote on Ordinance Which if
Passed Will Cause Special Elec-
ton in Connection
WITH PAVING NYMoRE ROAD.


Members of the Bemidji city coun-
Gil will this evening have introduced
for their consideration an ordinance
bearing on the paving of the road
leading from this city to Nymore.
Ever since the visit of the railroad
commission to Nymore early in the
spring, which was for the purpose
of Investigating as to the advisability
of erecting depots. in that city, there
has been continual talk OF paving
the street
For years the road has been in such
heavy condition that large wagon
loads could hardly be drawn through
It.
The people of Nymore place their
chief argument for depot on the
fact that this road is in such bad
condition and makes travel between
the two places almost impossible
II the ordinance passes the coun-
Gil after its required number Of
readings q special election will be.
called and the voters of Bemidji will
be given an opportunity to show their
desire in the matter.

While Johnson, a High School Lad,
Pitches Sensational Ball for Cass
County Boys.
NOSE OUT VICTORY IN NINTH
Locals Come from Behind in Last In
ming and Push Over Winning
Run Without a Hit.

After pitching unbeatable baseball
for seven innings, Young Johnson,
Walkers high school pitcher, lost his
stride and allowed Bemidji to score
Ia victory in yesterdays game at the
Fair Grounds, the score at the end
of the battle being four to three in
favor of Bemidji
Until the last inning, when Be-
midi scored two runs on errors, the
locals were on the short end of the
score. But with determination to
retain their winning gait they went
to bat to make a final effort to land
the game, and with the aid of Walk
er's third baseman who fumbled a
liner accomplished the feat.
Smiley, Bemidji youthful pitcher,
not to be outdone by his young rival,
also pitched good ball, striking out
IS of the visitors. -
Johnson allowed only two hits
during the entire contest, these COM
ing in the eighth inning. E-~
The throwing: to bases of Bosco,
Walkers catcher, added to the fea-
ture of the afternoon. Il =. -.-. =
Smiley allowed only three hits, hit
three, passed two, and errors back of
him gave Walker the majority of
their runs.
The batteries were, for Bemidji,
Smiley and Schaia; for Walker,
Johnson and Bosco. Bill Wilson,
manager of the sub-agency of Ar
mour and company, located in this
city, umpired the game
Efforts are being made by Grand
Rapids to secure game with Be-
midi to be played here June 30, but
as Walker wishes to play here again
on that date, Manager Davis is some
what undecided as to which will be
placed on the schedule.
During the temporary absence of
Mr. Davis from the city, Al Houston
has charge of the team. -

Chicago, June 17.-Smash went
the harmony in the Roosevelt head
quarters Saturday, making the elev-
enth hour sensation of the campaign.
Colonel Roosevelt's invasion of Chi
cago brought the friction to a crisis
Senator Joseph M. Dixon, manager of
the Roosevelt campaign up to the
time the assault on the convention
was determined, is the man struck
by the flying cogs of the Roosevelt
machinery. William Finn, leader of
the ''strong arm" forces; George w.
Perkins, custodian of the "strong
box" and Medill Mccormick, nimbly
stepping up and down the side lines
and who quietly faded away from the
Washington headquarters after SEN
atOr Dixon took charge, are now in
control. -...I.
Senator Dixon and Senator Will
liam E. Borah are said to have been
strongly opposed to Roosevelt coming
to Chicago. The Flinn-Perkins-Mc-
Cormick coterie, was just as deter
mined that he should come and lead
the turmoil and clatter which is ex-
pected to ensue.
William Finn of Pittsburgh is now
Colonel Roosevelt's chief Of staff
From the moment Colonel Roosevelt
touched foot in this town, Mr.. Finn
was as close to him as his shadow
Mr.. Finn told Colonel Roosevelt that
he was already nominated in this
convention. George w. Perkins gave
the same information to the former
president. So did Frank A. Munsey
With the total of 573 delegates for
Taft confronting them, Mr.. Finn, Mr.
Perkins and Mr.. ~Munsey stated to
Colonel Roosevelt that in reality
President Taft had only 535 dele
gates and in that total the entire del
egations of Louisiana, Mississippi
Georgia, Florida, Tennessee and Vir.

TAFT CONFIDENT OF VICTORY
President Believes He Will Land the
Nomination on First Ballot
May Compromise.

Chicago, June 17.-With the Taft
people opposing with all their might
the Roosevelt forces, there is more
talk of harmony candidate to come
out of this convention.
How this is to be accomplished, if
it can be accomplished at all, is as
yet question. But probably it can
only be through the leaders Of the
opposing forces coming together and
agreeing that the battle between
President Taft and former President
Roosevelt has been so severe and so
vitrOlic as to leave lasting enmities
in the event of the nnn7iro+ioi of
either man, which would have per-
manent and direful effect on the par
ty during the approaching campaign.
AS matter of fact, national COM
mitteemen who have stood by Roos-
evelt in the contest in the national
committee do not hesitate to say that
with the split in the party former
President Roosevelt could not be
elected. For that matter, national
committeeman who have stood by
Taft speak likewise. But the lead
ing men in the opposite forces feel
that if there is compromise on the
fol dot
naturally be a compromise on the
temporary chairman of the conven-
ton and the chairman of the COM
mittee of resolutions. That is, there
would be a compromise on Senator
Root for the former place and form
er Vice-president Fairbanks for the
latter post.
These leading men in the opposing
armies are inclined to believe that
the first several ballots in the con-
vention will be- deadlock between
Taft and Roosevelt.
OF course, the Taft campaign man
ayers do not admit such a contin-
gency, and neither do Roosevelt's,
but then they are expected in crit
ical situation like this to continue to
make claims. But the real inside of
the situation tonight is for a COM
promise all along the line, according
to the very best information in both
camps.
