LIABLE FOR BIG FINE.

London, Dec. 10.-The fact that he
has voted ninety-thr rec times in the
House of Commons since last March,
may cost Sir Stuart M. Samuel, Lib
eral NJ. P. for the Whitechappel divi-
sion, the sum of $232,5OO. He is a
partner in the firm of Samuel Mon
tagu & Co., which has recently receiv-
ed the government contract for buy
ing silver, and parliamentary proce-
dure lays it down that no member of
a firm doing business with the gov
eminent may sit in the house. Sir
Stuart ought to have resigned his
seat Immediately his firm got the con-
tract, according to his critics., and
the attorney general is Investigating
the matter. He is liable to a fine of
$4,000 for every time he has voted
since his seat automatically became
vacant. A good many nasty things
have been said about that silver con-
tract and the firm of Samuel Mon
tagu, and the question is being asked
whether Under-Secretary for India,
E. Scott Montagu has any connection
with the firm. He is a nephew of
Sir Stuart Samuel and brother of
Lord Swaythling, head Of the firm.

London, Dec. 10.-Ultra-loyalists,
ever sensitive about the kingly dign-
ity, are demanding the head of Lord
Chancellor Haldane, who has been
guilty of the heinous crime of ban
ishing the kings chair from the
Privy council chamber. 1t is true
that the chair has not been used for
we'll over a couple of centuries, but
the big empty red chair has always
occupied the place of honor at the
council table. Until the time King
George the First, English soverigns
always presided over meetings of the
council and its committees, cabinet
judicial. The Hanoverian monarch,
however, could not speak sufficient
English to keep up the practice, so
he left the presidency to the lord
president. The empty chair beside
that of the president, however, re-
minded the councillors of the kingly
presence, in spirit, but Haldane who
has been doing good deal of sweep
ing round, has had it cleared out.

The committee of the Associated
Charities, which is securing funds for
the relief of the poor at once, reports
that $139 in cash and other donations
in goods have been secured to date.
When the association was organized,
it was decided that it would be nee
essary to raise funds at once as sew
eral poor families are in dire need of
relief.
The temporary committee makes
the following request:
CAS- it is not possible for us to see
every one who may like to donate,
we ask that those who have not re-
ceived calls and wish to make a sub
scription, will send their money to
G. D. Backus, treasurer This is a
public proposition and the association
is organized to unity all the forces of
charity in Bemidji. Money and goods
are badly needed at this time of the
year. 49,.

GOOD CROWD AT FARRIS
First Meeting of Extension Series
Held Yesterday Afternoon With
Thirty-six Present.
ARE IN KELLIHER TODAY

Miss Beatrice Eddy, F. B. McLaren
and A. E. Nelson talked to thirty six
people in FarTis yesterday at the first
meeting of the extension series being
held under Mr.. Nelson's direction this
week and next. Miss Eddy replaced
Miss Margaret Bull on the program
as Miss Bull was unable to make
train connections. Mr.. McLaren ar
rived in Farris about p. M coming
from Wrenshan and the entire party
returned to Bemidji at 4:3O on the
500.
Here they were met. by Miss Bull
who had come from nneapolis and
the trip to Kelliher was made. A
messing is being held in Kelliher this
afternoon at which addresses will be
made by each member of the party.
1t is being backed by the Kelliher
Commercial club.
At Farris yesterday Miss Eddy
talked to the ladies present on the
Farm Kitchen outlining several
things that the women can do to
make life in the kitchen easier. She
urged that the kitchen be kept light
and airy and that every precaution
be taken against allowing germs a
breeding place. MIR. Nelson spoke on
the DAIRY Cow" illustrating his talk
with charts.
Mr.. McLaren stepped off the Great
Northern and was at once called upon
ito speak. He held his audience IN
til the 500 train whistled as he was
talking Root Crops" and the farm
ers were getting some valuable in
formation. Mr.. McLaren advised the
raising of sugar beets and rutabagas
claiming that they were equal in VAL
ne as winter feed :
Il believe in the raising of big
ruta bagas," he said 'They are
easier to handle and get the most
pounds per acre. I do not cut them
up but feed them whole and find that
the stock does not choke" Mr.. Nc
Laren also gave some practical ways
for thinning out and cutting the tops
of of beets with hoe.
In speaking of winter feed, he said,
II believe that the best feed is OBJ
tanned by feeding one pound of grain
to four pounds of roots. The farmer
who weighs his feed is the farmer
who gets ahead. More corn fodder and
less hay in the winter will make
your stock look better in the spring. -

} A . is COMING
The Divine Sarah to Appear In Be-
midi Saturday and Sunday
with Sunday Matinee.
HER FIRST VISIT TO THIS CITY

Sarah Bernhardt, probably the most
famous actress of modern times, will
be in Bemidu Saturday and Sunday
of this week. That is, she will be
here in spirit, i not il body, for G. 3.
Woodmansee,. manager of the Majes-
tic theatre, has arranged to show the
film Queen Elizabeth in which
Bernhardt has the leading role.
Sarah 'Bernhardt needs no intro
duction to the American public but
this is the first time that she ever
appeared before camera. The film
has been shown in Chicago, Kansas
City, Minneapolis, New York, Boston
and other large cities and has won
favorable comment in each case. The
scenes of the famous tragedy are
thrown on the screen in a continuous
picture which is free from the un-
steadiness which characterized the
first moving picture.
The version of "Elizabeth" used is
comprehensive enough to tell the es-
sential parts of the essay yet the film
runs only one hour. The drama is
we'll presented as the close grouping
necessary to get all of the actors be-
fore the machine made the work of
getting the film difficult. The stage
settings and costumes are from
Bernhardt's own Paris theatre. The
company is her own also.
The film shows Bernardo as the
proud Elizabeth; the humble Eliza
beth; the commanding Elizabeth; the
pleading Elizabeth, the yielding Eliz-
abeth; the iron souled Elizabeth
Elizabeth - the high-hearted; the
broken-hearted Elizabeth, singing
the death of Essex in fury of jeal-
ousy, and dying herself of tender
remorse
You can see it all.
Bernhardt is the consummate art
list. And Bernhard is clever. Per-
haps as clever as any move of all her
Kaleidoscope career was the decision
to project her matchless art, unfetter-
ed by Limitations of language,
through the medium Of the film.
On the last visit of. that other
great actress, Ellen Terry, to Kansas
City, she said in an Interview:
"Ah, Bernhardt-Bernhardt! What
need has Bernhard of words, when
her soul is mirrored in her face"

Farmers Should Cooperate.

The various problems Of rural life
were enumerated by Roosevelt at the
great problem requiring immediate
solution, Farm financing," he said,
should now receive the consideration
it deserves. It will be interesting to
note with what success our farmers
will take up or adopt the European
cooperative financing system of the
Raiffeisen type. The greatest field
for farmers cooperation will be in
marketing their product, which pro-
sumner dearly. The promptest and
largest measure of financial aid
would come from mortgage banks
chartered, regulated and carefully
supervised by the government, oper-
ated on the methods of the credit
FOncier of France.
"This plan gives the farmer long
time loans of thirty to fifty years,
with the arrangement that small an
nual payments amounting to seven or
eight per cent would automatically
amortize or wipe out the entire debt
at the end of the term. The Dor
rowed money would be used largely
for creative purposes and the easy
payments would permit part of the
farm income to be used for conserva-
tton and the general advantage Of

EAST0N IS SAFE

Duluth, Dec. 1O.-Heavily covered
with ice the steamer Easton of the
Booth line, which had been on Iro-
quois reef, near Port Arthur, from
early Thursday morning until Friday
evening, reached Duluth at 1855 last
night.
A large crowd braved the bitter
cold to witness the return to the
home port of the vessel which many
had given up for lost, stool OIL the
slippery asphalt piers of the ship can
al, and cheered as the staunch little
ship ploughed its way through the
government ship canal.
At $3.50 last Thursday morning,
the Easton, hugging the north shore
of Lake Superior, ran on the rock,
going nearly over the reef, bu: hung
midship, it's nose in deep water and
its stern so high that the wheel was
out oe water.
A wireless message from the strand
ed vessel to Port Arthur, brought a
tug accompanied by lighter to the
scene. A high sea was rolling and
all attempts to remove the passengers
were fruitless. .
The storm prevailed during all of
Thursday but the Easton withstood
the high sea. Late Friday the sea
subsidized sufficiently to enable seven
ty-five tons of its cargo to be trans
ferred to the lighter and the Easton
was released.
Captain Hockanson reported by
wireless to the home Office that the
ship was "off the rocks, Hndamaged
