BROOKS Is PRESIDENT
Will Head Creamery Association for
Coming Year-Select Board Of
Managers.
WAITING NOW FOR NEW BOILER

At meeting of the stockholders
|of the new Creamery association at
| tho Commercial club rooms last even
llnE.e tha tfollaMiAg officers and board
of managers were elected: president
w. L. Brooks; secretary, r. Z. Civ
en-; treasurer, A. G. Wedge. The
board of managers comprise the
above elected officers and T. J. Bur-
Ike, N. w. Bowser, F. s. Lycan and
A. A. Warfield.
This new association is entirely
independent of the old one and will
assume no obligations binding the
old association. AS no farmers have
taken stock, the new company will
be comprised entirely of Bemidji
business men,, but the privilege of
taking stock is extended to any and
all farmers who so DESIRE The plan
appears to be, according to President
Brooks, that after the creamery is in
operation and the company ID organ
lied and on good footing, any farm
er desiring to purchase stock at its
then present value from any of the
stockholders hag the opportunity to
do SO, thus ultimately turning the
creameryo over to the farmers.
With. the present set of business
men in charge there can be little
doubt of the success of this new en-
terprise. The business will be run
on cash basis and any one bringing
cream to the new creamery will re-
ceive his money upon delivery.
The creamery will begin making
butter as soon az the new boiler ar
rives, as the butter maker, Oscar
Peterson of st. Hi1aire, expects to be
ready for work next Monday.

Kick on Tax.

In William Merrill, the city police
believe they have the man RESPONSE
BILE for series of petty thefts which
have been taking place for the past
month. Merrill was arrested Tues
day night about 1890 after he had
broken into the Schwandt & Marin
store. Later search of his room re-
vealed many articles known to have
been stolen and he is said to answer
the description of a man seen near
the union depot shortly before it.
was robbed of $40 about four weeks
ago.
The night police Tuesday night
saw that the outside door of the
Schwandt & Marin store had been
forced open. Calling help, the police
entered the building and found that
the inner door was also open. Mer
rill was discovered before the safe
trying to open it. He was taken
without resistance and at.:the station
told where his room was located.
He had also tried to enter the Ora
ham & Doran market but could not
force the door.
In his ROOM the police found a
saw, crowbar, hammer, etc., which
were identified as belonging to the
city. 1t is believed that he has an
other plant somewhere in the city
and the police hope to find this and
uncover additional evidence.
Jailed Dogs Escape.
Fourteen dogs have escaped from
the city dog hastile during the past
week. Since the dog catcher has
been operating, he has used the old
city lookup, now located on rear
lot, as a detention pen, the law stat
ing that dogs shall be held three
days before being destroyed. In
each case, the dogs have had assist
ance from the outside as in one in
stance the cage was pried up and in
another a hole was dug up from be-
meath.
Several dog owners who have fail
ed to get licenses and tags have
refused to allow the police to take
the CANNES as they claim to have
paid a county tax and that an addi-
tional city tax is illegal. The police
expect to get ruling on this point
in the near future. Chief Cell says
that a new 'dog Jail" will be provid-
ed and it will be burglar proof.

Republicans went on record today as
favoring the denomination of Presi-

Portuguese held Alden only from 1547
to 1861. According to vague tradition,
the place was once occupied by the
Romans. One Of the earlier voyages
Of the East India company was to
Alden In 1909. In 1902 treaty was
made between Britain and the sultan

some shipwrecked British sailors, and
eleven years later Alden was made q
free port. The old town was built on
