By R.W. HITCHCOCK. ntered-in the postoffice &t Bemidjl, Minn., as second class matter, -0fficial Paper Village of Bemidiji “PUBLISHED EVERY Al SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER NOON . YEAR A Two-Year-Old. THE Daily Pioneer today en- ters upon its third year. In cele- bration and commemoration of that fact it today presents its readers with this modestly spec- ial Easter number. It has been the ambition of the Pioneer to be a newspaper—to present briefly "|and promptly the chief items of the daily news of the world, to publish the local news of north central Minnesota - more promptly and more completely than any other newspaper and to be an organ in but the one sense that it should devote itself to the material growth and prosperity of this great section of the state. This ambition it has in a consid- erable measure gratified and in this regard it hopes to be still more successful in the future and thus to merit a continuante of the support and patronage which have made it one of the best county dailies in the United States. City Ofganization. BeMIDIT has long outgrown its swaddling village clothes and day by day the need of city or- ganization grows more evident. Attempts to organize as a city haye thus far been defeated througfi the opposition of a poli- tical faction which fears, and justly too, that city organization will give to the people of the city the power it;now possesses. To the defeat of attempts to organ- ize as a city certain business in- terests have also contributed simply because they have feared any sort of change from present conditions. The Pioneer suggests that the charter drafted for Bemidji about a year ago be referred to the at- torneys of the city asa body to be by them revised and presented tothe charter commission and then to the people for adoption. A charter sosecured would be free from suspicion of haying been drafted to further the in- terests of any faction and would be as perfect an instrument as any city can hope to secure. Some such step must be taken some time; the sooner the better for the interests of Bemidji. Penny Wise and Pound Foolish. THE state in the matter of drainage has been unable to see where its interests lie. It has been demonstrated beyond the possibility of reasonable dispute that every dollar spent by the statein draining its swamplands has been returned to it two and three and four fold and yet, while thousands of acres of state land lie undrained and profitless the state refuses togrant an ade- quate appropriation for this pur- pose—not only refuses to do what is urgently needed for the betterment of the condition of its citizens and the advancement of the general prosperity of the state but actually refuses to reach outits hand and takea certain proflt. It is true that thelegislature has appropriated $30,000 per year for the ensuing two years for drainage, but the sum js utterly inadequéte and the inability of the legislature to grasp the principles which un- derlie this matter will materially ;;revent. the legitimate develop- ment of the entire -northern por- tion of the state.

Case of Letters and Docements Taken From Mrs. J. Morgan Smith. New York, April 20.—Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Gans told Justice Gay- mor in the New York state supreme <court in Flushing during the day that it would defeat the ends of justice and reveal tn the defense the re- sources of the gprosecution in the trial of Nan Patterson for the murder of Caesar Young if District Attorney Jerome were compelled to surrender.| the letters ’nd documents taken from Mrs. J. Morgan Smith when she was arrested in Cincinnati. Counsel for the Smiths asked for an order for the surrender of the papers and Justice Gaynor suggested that they be given to the clerk of the court so that both sides could have access to them, but Mr. Gans objected. The court then reserved decision. JAPS WOULD HONOR TAFT. Formal Invitation.

A secretary of the Japanese le- gation visited Mr: Taft during the afternoon to urge him to say that he would be pleased to receive such an dnvitation. The inclination of the sec- wetary is to refuse official attention of any kind when he stops at Japanese ports during his progress to and from the Philippines, at which time the {.Japanese government had hoped to en- tertain him officially as- a mark of appreciation of the treatment accorded | Pringe Fushimi during his visit here.
