GiBBONS is._elected mayor of Bemidji today the pro- lem of illegal voting in Bemidji will be settled for it will not again be toterated. If Mr. Car- ter is elected, the city will still haye the same problem to solve. Itis a problem that has some very singular features. For in- stance if every man who works in the woods can claim Bemidji as his home, then every man who works in the woods can vote here, There are between ten and twenty thousand men who work in the woods of northern Minnesota each winter, If they may vot2 here all that it is neces sary to do to carry an election would be to import seven or eight hundred und the people of Be- midji, who actually live here and are vitally interested in the kind of a government which the city has, will be completely outvoted and even though every actual resident voted the same ticket. The argument that a man who is employed in the woods winters has therefor the right to claim Bemidjias his home is prepos- terous—but it is more; it is dangerous, for if its acceptance can be forced upon the people of the city they are then totally dis- franchised and will have no voice whatever in the manage- ment of their public affairs. Hoch der City! Woareverthe result of today’s election, the Pioaneer congratu- lates the peopla. If 1th2 Business Men'’s ticket i ¢lected, the pec- ple have won a great victory: if it is defeated they have still made anotatl: advance toward gocd government, for Bemidji is now organized as a city, with equal representation for all parts of it, and with a home rule charter which will in time cure any ills we still suffer.

New York, Nov. 3—Thousands ot Tammany campaign postal cards is- sued in opposition to William Ran dolph Hearst, candidate for mayor were confiscated by order of Postmas ter William F. Wilcox of this city. The cards were a miniature of a campaign poster and banner which has been widely distributed by Tammany. It bore a transparent likeness of Presi- dent McKinley above a red bomb, the fuse of which was burning, while in the background was the fleeing figure of a man labeled “Hearst.” It bore the inscription “Lest we forget” and contained alleged extracts from one of Mr. Hearst's newspapers. It was said at the general postoffice that 361,000 of the alleged scurrilous cards had been held up. Postmaster ‘Wilcox’s action in excluding the cards from the mails was based upon that section of the postal laws which pro- vides that no scurrilous matter shall be sent through the mails on postal cards. In directing that the cards be held up the postmaster issued the fol- lowing order at the general postoffice and also at all sub-stations: “Stop the delivery and confiscate the ‘Lest we forget' postals sent out by Tammany Hall.” MINERS ESCAPE SAFELY.

New Dintng Cars of the Great Northern Railway a Feature of the “Oriental Limited.” Tt is, perhaps, best to say that in every respect—china, cuisine and attendants, the dining cat service of the *‘Oriental Limited’’ is in keeping with the luxurious- ness of the remainder of this regal train, and has won, as the dining car service has always helped to win, the title, *‘The Comfortable Way,” for the Great Northern Railway. The new dining car service of the “Orient- al Limited” equals in beauty, de sign and interior furnishings anything which a tirst class hotel or club affords in the way of ser vice is really on the dining car of the “Oriental Limited.” The new dining cars were builv with a special purpcs2in view of af- fording the most comfortable surroundings, as well as giving the traveler a unique and luxu- rious place in which to enjoy his meals. A gentleman who recent- ly made the journey to the coast from St. Paul on the “Oriental Limited”. m speaking of the din- ing car service, said: “I have traveled on almost every important railroad in the United States, but I have yet to find one which surpasses the “Oriental Limited” in the comfort and convenience afforded the traveler. Your dining car ser- vice is excellent, the equal of any in the country, and the superior of many. I was particularly truck with the beauty of the in- terior furnigaings of these din- ing cars; they are really a novelty of car architecture.” Ffi&mfim&q § Webster @ Cooley ] 4 Wall Paper & Paint Store One door south of old P.
