DELEGATES TO development
ASSOCIATION MEET.
Commercial Club Appoints Commit
tee of Five to Represent Virginia
at International Falls Meeting on
June 1921.

Among matters under discussion
at the Commercial club meeting last
evening was a proper representation
Of this city at the next meeting Of
the Northern Minnesota Development
association to be held at Internation-
al Falls on Thursday and Friday of
next week, and a committee of five
composed of Messrs. Edward L.
Boyle, Andrew Hawkinson, NJ B. Ar
mold, H. O. johnson and w. E. Han
aaford was named to do the honors.
The meeting at International Falls
will be of much interest, and it is
not unlikely that in addition to mat
ters of agricultural and Industrial
development of this rich section OF
the state the matter of reapportion-
ment and other legislative questions
affecting our welfare will be under
discussion.

SELLING MUCH FARM MACHIN-
ERY

o. B. Harstad, of Bemidji, general
agent for the International Harvester
company, was in the city Wednesday
In consultation with the local agents
of that concern, the Finnish Hard
ware company and Ketola Bros.
These firms have sold a great
amount of farm machinery of this
manufacture this season and place or
ders for additional supplies.
And the buying Of farm machinery
in car lots by local dealers leads one
to remark that there is a marked
difference between the present pros
poets of this section as an agricul-
tural center compared with twenty
years ago when all anyone ever sup
posed would be raised on the range
or in the adjacent territory was hell
and iron ore.

WILL TENDER RESIGNATION
As ALDERMAN OF THE 4Tn
J. l.. kimball, Twice Recalled and
Twice Reelected, Decides to With
draw From Public Service and
Files Resi- gnati0n With Clerk.

Alderman J. l.. KimDall, 0. the
Fourth ward, who since his election
in February, 1910, has twice been
made the mark for the recall ana has
twice been reelected by majority
vote of the citizens of mis- wa:d to
continue his service on the :cu..tjl,
on Tuesday filed with City Geek
Bickford his resignation, desiring to
be relieved of the position of trust.
This resignation would have come
before the city council Tuesday even
ing had that body been in position to
knowingly do business on a legal
basis, but with other business to have
come before the body was laid over
until the next meeting.
The decision on the part of Alder
man Kimball has caused much COM
ment among voters of the ward and
especially among his friends who
stood by him through the recall pro-
ceedings, many feeling that he was
doing an injustice to his constituents
by such act. But he rightly says his
decision was made after careful
thought, and that he does not care
to continue in the public service with
the possibility of the recall without
stipulated cause being again invoked
in his case, as he feels it might be at
any time.
Alderman Kimball was on the
council during the last term of ex-
Mayor Eaton, at which time he was
president of the council. In 1910 he
was elected by plurality of 20, and
at the time of his last recall election
in October last, was returned by a
majority of 80, while the recent
contest his majority over A. Keller
in the ward was II.
The filling of his seat will be up to
the council, and while there is no
inkling as to who may be chosen for
the post it will be the desire of all
that a man may be chosen with a
view to fitness rather than with a
view to political prestige-one whose
acts may be based upon sound jude-
ment and with view to the public
welfare at each step.

Now that the school year is at an
end the members of the senior class
of the Virginia High school, number
ing twenty-seven young ladies and
gentlemen, the largest graduating
class in the schools history, were
we'll prepared for the closing exer-
cises which occurred at the Roosevelt
auditorium Wednesday evening, and
which marked the elimination Of
four years of hard study and pleas
ant associations.
Fourteen members of the class
were selected to take part in the clos
ing exercises and each one handled
his subject in mastery manner,
showing that much study, thought
and preparation had been put into
these subjects by each. pupil. The
students, their superintendent and
instructors are deserving of much
credit for the good work which has
been accomplished by the class just
graduated.
The first subject for discussion was
"The Congestion in Big Cities" In
this line of thought and study Sam
uel l.. Cohen handled 1.-The Welfare
of the Farmer; Helma S. Johnson,
the "Betterment of Country Life";
Harlan w. Johnson. "The Co-opera-
tive SYSTEM; Elizabeth c. Rooney,
1.-The Farmer and the State"
The subject, "The Great Destroy
er," was handled by Demgen w.

COMMENCE WORK ON ELKS
new HOME next WEEK
Excavation for Finest Lodge Home
on the Ranges to Be Commenced
Monday-Will Cost Approximately
100000.

The work of excavating for the
new Elks' home to be erected by Vir-
ginia lodge No. 1903 will be COM
menced on Monday next, and when
complete the new block will not only
add materially to the appearance of
West Chestnut street but will be the
finest lodge home to be owned by any
range society.
The home will be erected on lots
owned by the lodge nearly opposite
the new Lyric theater, and will be
50x115 feet, three stories and base
ment. The first floor of the building
will be devoted to mercantile estab-
lishments, while the second floor will
be given over to club and lodge pur-
poses and the third floor will be fur.
nished as billiard hall.
The south fifty feet of the base
ment will have ten-foot ceiling,
while the balance Of the excavation
will be to depth of nine feet, max.
ing this portion of the block more
than common value in a city of low
Easements.
The lodge room proper will also
be of notable proportions and will
have a ceiling 1S feet high, to be
finished in the. most modern style.
The approximate cost of the new
block will be about $4,000, and
nearly or quite all Of the necessary
amount for its completion has al
ready been raised among local mem
bers of the order, Virginia Lodge No.
1908 being in fourishing condition
and adding rapidly to it's membership
list.
