GEMMELL DENIES NE
DISCHARGED AGENT

Brainerd, Mimi, Feb. 21.-W. H.
Gemmell, general manager of the M.
& I. railroad, emphatically denies the
statements made in the house of rep
resentatives by Congressman Chip
perfield that he discharged R. r.
Hurlburt, agent for the railroad at
Laporte, because the latter would not
allow Indian agents to search the
railroad records at Laporte and see
whether liquor had been shipped into
"dry" country.
''The statement of the agent that
he was discharged for any action of
his in connection with that matter is
entirely untrue and his withdrawal
from the service of the company was
his own voluntary action and not
connected with the Indian agent cpl
sode in any way" Mr.. Gemmell says.
''Anyone interested is entirely well
come to inspect the records of this
case at any time. I am surprised that
Congressman Chipperfield would use
such a letter without first taking the
trouble to ascertain, as he could read
lily have done from the railway COM
pany, what the real facts were."

SLED RUNNERS PLACED
ON FIRE MOTOR TRUCK

Sled runners have been placed on
the fire motor truck and on a trial
trip this morning proved very satis-
factory. The new runners are about
six feet in length and are fastened
directly to the front wheels. They
can be taken off and put on at will.
The runners are the idea of Will
liam Gaines, motor truck driver. On
account of the deep snow the truck
was unable to run and Mr.. Gaines
conceived the novel idea of placing
runners on the front wheels such
as are used in lumber camps on steam
haulers. The council gave Mr..
Gaines permission to get the runners
made. They were completed Satur-
day.
The new runners will save the city
considerable amount of money each
year. They cost about $50. The
city has had to secure two horses for
the truck during the winter months
at an expense of nearly $50 a month.
The new runners will take the place
of the horses.

WILL BLOW UP PARSONAGE
Village About to Vote Again on
Liquor Question; Feeling 4
is Tense. &

Although Walker is in the Indian
zone and dry, an effort is being made
to get vote on the liquor question,
petition to that effect being in cir
culation. Feeling is running high
there between the respective dry and
wet factions as evidenced by the
threat made against a local pastor.
Rev. George Michael of Walker re-
ceived an anonymous communication
this week, warning him to quit
preaching and leave town at once
The letter stated that unless he do
this, that the Congregational parson-
age in which he lives, will be dyna-
mited and himself blown up. It is
presumed that his activity in driving
illegal liquor out of Walker has
inspired the epistle. The letter has
been handed over to the authorities.
Last year, local option was sub
mitted and the drys won out by six
votes. Presumably wishing the viii
lage to go on record as favoring
liquor, Mayor Kinkele and others
circulated a petition and secured suf-
ficient signatures to bring the mat
ter before the voters at the approach
ing election.
: Among those signing the petition
are Mayor Kinkele, furniture dealer;
A. Mcbride, ex-postmaster; George
Crow, druggist; M. J. Guam, mer-
chant; j. P. Bilbern, merchant; F. s.
Grindall, garage, John Schneider,

MERCHANTS OFFERING
EXTRA LARGE BARGAINS

This week, Feb. 21 to 26, is to be
observed in Bemidji and many other
cities in the country as "Pay-Up
Week."
Pay-Up Week is remedial plan
If person has $50 in his pocket and
he owes $50, that $50 in his pocket
is not rightfully his. IT he cannot
afford to pay all of the $50 that he
owes, he should at least pay part
of it. It has been pointed out in the
campaign that if a person thinks
that when he has money and he owes
it, he has a right to retain it until
he is good and ready to pay; men
who owe him money have a right to
think the same way.
Due to Carelessness.
The neglect to pay a bill in nine
cases out Of ten is due to careless
ness. Very few men mean to be dis
honest.
The country has it's Clean Up
Weeks. 1t has had it's Paint-Up
Weeks 1t has had it's Go-to-C Church
Sundays. Now there has been insti-
tuted the Pay-Up Week slogan. The
idea seems to have hit a popular
chord in Bemidji.
.--> >.. Chinese New Year.-,, .- =.
The Chinese business men have an
admirable habit of settling all their
outstanding accounts at New Years.
A Chinese merchant who does not
start the year with everything clear,
not only loses caste but feels person
ally disgraced The business meth
DDS in this country do not permit the
rigid adoption of such a rule but the
spirit of it is worthy of emulation.
It was pointed out that the Pay-Up
Week this year might be made a sort
of Chinese New Year.
Bemidji merchants are offering
special bargains during this week
Some merchants are having special
sales while others ae Offering large
cash discounts.
