The Right Location.

The last session of the legislature
made an appropriation for a normal
school for Northern Minnesota, and
Bemidji and Thief River Falls seem
to be the leading contenders for the
institution of learning. There can
be no doubt but that Bemidji has
many points of advantage over it's
rival town, from a natural stand
ponit, and in the matter of railroads
it is equally we'll situated. While the
fact that we are n closer touch with
Bemidji, and have more in common
with it than Thief River Falls, may
cause us to be accused of bias, we
nevertheless cannot help but feel
that in all honesty, other conditions
being equal, the school should be To-
Gated where it's life will have the up
lift that comes from contact with ma
lures charms-its trees and lakes
and streams. We can imagine. no

Bemidji Is logical Location
- For New Normal Schoo

Bemidji Is Logical Location
IVA For New Normal School
According to the provisions of an
act passed by the late legislature
Northern Minnesota is to have a
Normal school, the location for which
is to be chosen by a commission APP
pointed BY Governor Eberhart.
1t appears that the chief contes-
tants for the school are Bemidji and
Thief River Falls and it may be that
Cass Lake will make a strong bid for
it. However, if sectional feeling and
prejudice is laid aside, it is. hard to
conceive of a more favorable loca-
ton. than .Bemidji. In fact if all
things are taken into consideration
by the commission appointed for this
purpose, there is but one place that
they can decide upon and that place
lis -Bemidji. Connected by railroads
with all the territory in Northern
Minnesota, which now is practically
out of reach of any state Normal, it
would be the most central and. con-
venient place for the patrons de-
pendent on the school. AS for health
full climate, ideal building sites: and
surroundings, Bemidji cannot be
equalled. -Blackduck American.

Good Advertising.

The evangelistic meetings being
held in the tabernacle near the
school house grounds are of more far
reaching importance than many of
our citizens realize. They emphasize
the fact of better Bemidji. There
is some advertising that our city gets
that is not and never has been any
benefit to us. It is a class of adver-
Using that bids for an undesirable
class of people who are blot on the
city in any way we may consider
them. These meetings are something
the city can afford to have. People
in other places who stand for law en-
forcement and the better things in
schools, churches and a high grade
of morals will read of these meetings
and will know that there are people
here who are back of all the things
that make for good homes and a
thriving prosperous city.
We are proud that our city has
enough of the church element, not
only to want, but to put the desire
for such a campaign into form. The
tabernacle with a seating capacity
for one thousand people has been
built almost entirely by donated la
Dor and the material has been furn-
ished by the lumber companies and
the hardware stores at very reason
able prices.
The evangelistic campaign is I'M
der the auspices of the Presbyterian,
Baptist and Methodist churches
which have formed a union for such
a work. Bemidji is very fortunate in
securing an evangelistic party OF
such markd ability. w. S. Colegrove
is a splendid assistant to the 9 van
gelist and thoroughly understands
the work in his department. AS
Bible teacher Miss J. B. Lamont is
one of the best who has visited our
city and her influence upon the lad
les of the churches and the girls of
the schools is delight. 1t would be
difficult to find chorus director SUI
perior to Prof L. A. Wegner as illus
trated by the excellent chorus: of
young people who lead the music.
The preaching of Evangelist I. E.
Honeywell is sane, forceful and
learned. He is having good hear
ing and the crowds that attend night
after night attest the interest in his
sermons
Bemidji has never had anything
that contributed so much to the good
OF the city as this campaign and it
should be strongly encouraged by
every business enterprise in the city.

Despite Recent Price Ad.

Shows Decrease
HOP

New York, October 1.-Business on the
stock exchange for nine months of the
calendar year, ending yesterday. showed
a marked decrease in comparison with
the corresponding period of 1912, despite
the greater activity and general Price
advances of the last few weeks.
At the close of yesterdays session
total of approximately 60, 100000 shares
was recorded for the first three-quartefs
of the fiscal year, while bond sa'es to-
tailed about S3S2. 600. Those totals rep
resent a decrease of about 81, 100000 shares
and 1s5,o00,o0o bonds, compared with the
same period last year.
To an extent the figures are consid-
cred erroneous, because. under the policy
of reform inaugurated by the exchange
officially in the year, the daily operations
of the past few months are believed to
represent more actual business than was
transacted in former years.
Brokers view the outlook as more hope
ful than months ago. This is indicated

Soft Drink Firm
Has Big Output

Sufficient soft drinks can be manu-
featured in one factory in Richmond to
assuage the thirst of the entire city
and a number or neishboring towns.
The Fossler Bottling company, To-
Gated on Green street, has daily out
put of It's cases of soft drinks during
the summer season, but with its plant
facilities il has a capacity for more
than double this production.
The Foster company was founded
thirty years ago by the father of Frank
Foster, its present owner 1t was To-
Gated at that time on Seventh street.
Mr.. Foster became the owner of the
factory three years ago when he pur-
chased it of the Foster estate.
Owing to the nature of work in the
manufacturing of soft drinks only a
small force of men is required to run
the plant. The drinks are mixed in a
huge closed vat heavily charged with
gas. One man is required to care for
the bottles as they slide down a grove
TO he filled and automatically capped.
The power to turn the machinery of
the bottling plant is furnished by a
four-horse power electric motor.
Beginning next year Mr.. Foster
plans to purchase gasoline trucks to
distribute the soft drinks he manu-
features over the city and the cur
rounding country.

MILTON RETAINS
ARISTOCRATIC AIR

MILTON, Ind, Sept. 27.-Caroline
settlers founded Milton in the early
twenties, and it has always retained
something of the aristocratic atmos-
phere which its founders gave it. With
a population of retired farmers and
business men, Milton has many fine
residences.
The town enjoyed a steady growth
until 1860 when the Hoosier Drill Com
pany moved to Richmond, While only
small industry at the timeSlt was of
much Importance to Milton, and it was
several years before the industry of
the town again began to grow.
The principal industries are, DOdd-
ridge Grave Decorating company, a
wagon shop, flour mill, grain elevator,
and the Milton Carriage Company.
With railroad and interurban CON
nections, cattle and grain are shipped
from Milton by the carload. The town
has been incorporated for a number
of year.. and is under the control OF a
board of trustees.
The town has contracted for an cleo
trio lighting system, the current to be
V red from Cambridge City. 1t also
has gas for heating and lighting.

TRL..,ENDOUS GROWTH
KnOllenberg Store Started in
1866.

A small one story frame building
housed the dry goods business which
George H. Knollenberg established on
Main street September l, 1866. The
Knollenberg store, handling carpets,
dry goods and notions, formed a foun-
dation on which the present large bus
mess has been built.
Eleven years later in the spring Of
1877, the frame building was no Ion
ger adequate for the needs of the bus
. mess, so Mr.. Knollenberg bought the
site and erected a three-story stone
front building. So rapidly did the trade
increase that eleven years later an
other addition was necessary.
At this time the store had front
age of seventy-six feet on Main street,
and a depth of $50 feet. AS rapidly as
new space was added the business
grew filling it. Having expanded as
much as possible on Main street an
Annex was built on Eighth with a
frontage of sixty feet, extending back
1872 feet. This latest addition was made
In 1896.
The George H. Knollenberg com
pany was organized by George H.
Knollenberg, Henry w. and Charles
Augustus Knollenberg, and Harry w.
Watt in 1898.
Under the personal management of
shas continued it's steady growth, until
it now covers almost a block near the
center of the city.
