PLAN TO DECORATE PARK
Street Commissioner Carter Has I'm
ique Prize Scheme to Beautify
Lake Shore Near City Dock.
ONE IS TRIP TO ITASCA PARK

p y.-- Il !. Il ~ ..- :
A. A. Carter, street commissioner,
has hit upon unique plan fer the
identifying of the lake shore be-
tween the City dock and the City
boat house, which during the past
two years has been given no care.
- This tract is so arranged that it
can easily be converted into one Of
the city's chief beauty spots and it
is Mr.. Carter's plan to offer three
rewards to children of the city for
planting flowers and in other ways
assisting in the work. The street
commissioner plans on giving three
prizes, first, second and third, for
the best work done in decorating
the park.
When the Bemidji avenue abut-
ment was constructed two years ago,
between Third and Fourth streets,
the street commissioner was allowed
an appropriation for the planting Of
flowers, but since the first year
nothing has been DONE ~.s-
Mr.. Garter urges that all children
who wish to take part in the con-
test call him by phone, 447, any
evening this week. The ground will
be spaded and prepared for planting
the flowers by members of the street
gang. -. -#
The first prize for the contest will
be a trip to the state park at Lake
Itasca and the other prizes will be
equally desirable. - - -a--5 5. s,ss,I'

Will Place Election Edition Showing
Results Of Primaries on Each
Doorstep Early Tomorrow A. NJ.

That the primary vote In Be

usual is indicated by the small
number Of ballots cast in the four
wards of the city at an early hour
this afternoon A canvas Of the
four wards showed that less than
one hundred and fifty voters had

must be cast in order to bring the
number up to the total voting
strength of the city.
Laws Observed.
It has been noticeable in Bemidji
today that the provisions of the cor
rupt practices law have been OBJ
served, and this fact has much to
do with the seemingly lact of in.
terest in the election.

While almost all the judges of the
polling places are men familiar with
the work, several mistakes were
made this morning and in two
wards the first voters were handed
all four tickets, the non partisan,
Republican, Democrat and Progress

died and it is believed that no one
was permitted to vote more than the
non partisan and one of the party
tickets.
Only one vote had been cast in

REQUEST CA TO | SELLS 5
TO DEFER ACTION
kilograms Sent Government Indian
Department Head Asking That
Congress Be Given Time to Act.
QUESTION OF VAST IMP0RTANCF
Carrying Out Of Provisions Of 1866
Treaty Would Prevent Shipping Of
Medicines and Alcohol Here.

Feeling that the enforcement of
the provisions of the 1866 treaty
would create severe situation
in the territory included in its
agreement, large number Of Be
midi citizens met yesterday after
noon and passed a resolution, which
was signed and telegraphed to Cato
Sells, commissioner Of the govern
ment Indian department, lin which
it was urged that hiss department de-
fer all action in the matter either
until congress had been given an OPP
portunity to act or committee al
lowed to present facts.
Personal Messages Sent.
Aside from the resolution many
personal messages have also been
wired to Commissioner Sells asking
that time be taken before provisions
of the treaty are carried out.
An Important Question.
Should Cato Sells order that the
saloons of the territory be closed,
it will mean that not even a patent
medicine, a ccDking extract, con-
tanning alcohol, or alcohol in any
form can be shipped in. When it is
considered that this would prohibit
the use OF. alcohol as medicine, that
it could not be used in the filing Of
and that even for hos
pital use it could not be secured, the
seriousness of the situation is
brought to light.
May Grant Request.
There is a general feeling Of con-
tidence that the request made of
Cato Sells will be temporarily OBJ
served, and that thee saloons will be
allowed to con tinue business until
further action on the part Of the
government, namely congress, has
been taken
Rumor Believed Untrue.
+ While the rumor has been making
the rounds that Indian agents were
now on their way to Minnesota to
enforce the treaty provisions, little
truth is given to the reports.

EDITORIAL P AGE

a ponde"ous document from the hands of a clerk which would be read in a sing-song tone that meant nothing, the President delivered his first, and all subsequent mess ages in person, making his tell ing points with all the emphasis of the traincl platform orator with the result that, while the first mes sage was listened to in silence, his last, the trust document, was punct- uated by real applause from friends and foes. And the Presidents room in the Capitol building-an ornate chamber reserved in the past for Uccupan.y on cue day a session on- ly-has reen frequently used. In stead of sending for the members the President went to seu them with the result that patronage muddles have been cleared up with unheard of expedition. {
 Instead of secluding himself from the newspaper correspondents grant ing audi.nces only to the cuckoo ' representatives wAo reflected ad- ministratiou views tho President has granted open audiences to all prop erlv accredited newspaper cores pondents twice weekly. He has withs,ooi fire of questions, often Lostile, regarding politics, and has answered even more frankly than might have been expected, the only limitation teing thl ancient prohibi- ion ;nat the President must never be quoted directly.
