Unanimous for Tom Smart. Continued from First Page recognized as being so good a public official that it is deemed unwise to oppose his re-election and this is especially true in the matter of electing officers in a small city or village, where personalities are allowed to form the principal weapon of offense or defense ina| campaign. Mr. Smart has represented his| ward with credit to himself and the city, and has served his constitu- ents well. His unanimous re-election isa fitting tribute to his fitness for the position of alderman. GLOQUET WILL HOLD THE STATE FIREMEN'S MEET Bemidji Cannot Secure 1909 Meeting, as ‘““Lumber Town” Will Not Pull Out. The annual meeting of the Minne- nesota State Fire Department asso- ciation for 1909 will be held in the village of Cloquet, notwithstanding the recent resignation of Paul Bolan of Cloquet, who was first vice presi- dent of the association, and whose selection to that position gave the 1909 meeting to Cloquet. It was stated at the time that Bolan re- signed as first vice president (about a month ago) that the meeting would probably not be held at Cloquet; and Bemidji was at once an active candidate for the meeting to be held that year. With the intention of ascertaining to certainty the attitude of the Cloquet fire department and the municipal officials and citizens of Cloquet generally toward the meet- ing, Earl Geil, chief of the Bemidji fire department, visited Cloquet last Saturday and Sunday and held a consultation with the firemen there. Mr. Geil ascertained that the Cloquet firemen had elected Charles Wendell as chief of the Cloquet department, to succeed Paul Bolan, resigned, and that they would recom- | mend his election as president of the | State Fire Department association, to also succeed Bolan, at the meeting to be held at Mankato next June. The village officiais of Cloquet have appropriated a liberal sum to assist the firemen in preparing for the 1909 meeting and the citizens are lending their support in the movement. As a result of the trip of Mr. Geil to Cloquet, Bemidji is not a candi- date for the 1909 meeting. This place was simply after the meeting, providing Cloquet did not desire it. Judge Ives Knows Russell. Cass Lake Times: We are pleased to note that our old-time friend, Pat Russell, is a candidate for mayor of Bemidji. We have known Pat since he wore short breeches, know the old roots were he used to stub his toes when he went barefooted after the cows, and we never knew him to whimper or complain. Pat is the owner of two prominent attributes, viz: Unselfishness and a love of the cause of right, and the latter predominates so clearly that even his enemies can see it. Pat has ability, push, and isas aggressive as men need be to run a frontier town, and will make Be- midji the best mayor it has ever dallied with. If we hada vote in our sister town Pat would surely get it, for we like aggressive, prompt men. — Park Rapids May Lose Tournament. Park Rapids, Minn, Feb. 8.— Byron Knapp and J. D. Haradon have been selected as delegates to attend the executive meeting of the Northern Minnesota Firemen’s Tour- nament Association at Cass Lake on Feb. 13. It seems to be as yet undecided as to whether Park Rapids will have the tournament next summer or not, the question being an assurance of sufficient funds. The executive com- mitte can change the place of hold- ing the tournament and it is under- stood they will be allowed to do so if they think it advisable. M. B. A.’s Attention. Hereafter M. B. A.

Clark, Sec. o r——_ BURNS FINISHED PALMER IN JUST FOUR ROUNDS American Champion Found an Easy Mark in the Championship of 0ld England. London, Feb. 11.—Tommy Burns, the American heavy-weight pugilist, last night knocked out Jack Palmer, of New Castle, the English champion, scheduled to be a 20-round contest for the heavy-weight championship. Some 2,000 persons saw the fight. It was a oue-sided affair from the sound of the first gong until the middle of the fourth round, when Palmer, on his knees, was findlly counted out. The referee might have given his decision in the first minute of the contest as Palmer was a beaten man from the moment he entered the ring. Burns climbed under the ropes smiling and showing his customary confidence, while Palmer displayed great nervousness. Without any preliminary sparring, Burns went after him and the first round had hardly begun before the Englishman was on his knees. He took the count twice and during the rest of the round was busily engaged in covering himself. This was re- peated in each of the other rounds, | Palmer being hopelessly outclassed and apparentiy without ability either to deliver a telling blow or to defend himself. Dougherty Stock Company. The popular Dougherty Stock Co., will open a five-night engage- ment, beginning Tuesday, Feb. 11, and will present a reperotoire of standard plays.

Mississippi Negro~ Secured by Mob and Lynched. Brookhaven, Miss., Feb. 11.—RH Pigot, a negro, who assaulted Miss Wells in this county a few weeks ago, was taken from the custody of a Jack- son military company and a posse of feputies and hanged. The military eompany was overpowered by a mob of more than 2,000 citizens. A num- ber of shots were fired and two mem- bers of the mob were wounded. Pigot reached Brookhaven from Jackson to be placed on trial in cus- tody of Sheriff Frank Greer and un- der the armed escort of the Capital light guards, ordered into service by Governor Noel to protect the negro during the trial. When the soldiers and negro alight- ed from the train the mob surged around them and a fierce hand to hand fight ensued. The soldiers clubbed the members of the mob with their guns. The fight lasted five minutes and the military started with the prisoner to the courthouse when the mob, rein- forced and reorganized, made another attack, secured the prisoner, dragged him to a telephone pole and hanged him. Judge Wilkinson, who was to have presided at the negro’s trial, wit- nessed the lynching, but was power- less to prevent the mob from carrying out its purpose. Captain A. L. Sairley commanded the Jackson company, which had in its ranks about thirty men. He re- ported the affair to the governor. ATTACKS VALIDITY OF LAW Standard Oil's Reply to Minnesota Ouster Suit. " St. Paul, Feb. 11.—The Standard Oil company has filed a demurrer to the suit brought against it by Attorney General Young for the forfeiture of its Minnesota charter.. Its right to do business in the state is attacked because of an alleged vio- lation of the anti-discrimination law passed by the last legislature. The company claims the law is un- constitutional hecause it is in viola- tion of both the federal and state con- stitutions. It proposes to take prop- erty without due process of law, the company says. Further, it holds that the act speci- fied is class and special legislation and therefore in conflict with the state constitution. The complaint, it also says, does not constitute facts. The sult against the Standard Oil company was commenced early in De- cember in the Ramsey county district court. In an answer made the com- pany then asked that the state be compelled to make its complaint more specific. This it withdrew and filed ihe demurrers given above. CORRECTS HIS TESTIMONY Witness in Capitol Graft Case Gets Titles Mixed. Harrisburg, Pa., Feb. 11.—The first act of Stanford B. Lewis of Philadel- phia, assistant to Joseph M. Huston, architect of the new state capitol, when he took the witness stand at the trial of J. H. Sanderscn, a contractor; former Auditor General Snyder, for- mer State Treasurer Mathues and James M. Shumaker, superintendent of public buildings and grounds, charged with conspiracy to defraud the state, was to correct his testimony when he implicated former Attorney General Hampton L. Carson in an al- leged “whitewash” of those who are accused of fravd. Lewis in his cor- rection said that he had confused the titles of state officials and where he sald “attorney general” he meant “au- ditor general.” Mr. Carson, who was at the time at- torney general, took no part in the conference where the alleged “white- wash” of state officials was discussed, according to Lewis. Murdered on Street Car. New York, Feb. 11.—A young wo- man of the Tenderloin, known to her companions only as Queenie, about twenty-seven years old and decidedly pretty, was shot and almost instantly killed while riding on a northbound Second avenue car at Eighth street. A young man who was sitting oppo- site the girl in the car fired the shot, the police say, and then, dashing from the car, made his escape. Seven Persons Burned to Death. New Liskard, Ont., Feb. 11.—Seven persons were burned to death by a fire which destroyed the home of Law- rence Haacke, a carpenter, near here. The victims were his wife and six children, ranging in age from an in- fant to a girl of eleven years. The family were asleep when the fire started and before assistance arrived the building had been burned to the ground. Aldrich Discusses Currency Bill. ‘Washington, Feb. 11.—Senator Al- drich addressed the senate in explana- tion of the currency bill which bears his name. The galleries were well fillel. A large number of bankers were present, including J. Pierpont Morgan of New York, who occupied a seat in Vice President Fairbanks’ row end who came from New York for the purpose. Indiana Banker Suicides. Connersville, Ind., Feb.- 11.—Francis T. Roots, president of the First Na- tlonal bank, committed suicide by shooting himself through the head with a revolver. He had been in bad health for several months. Mr. Roots served several terms in the legislature and was identified with a number of business interests in Connersville. FOR ILLEGAL BANKING.

It was announced that the indictments ‘were agalnst a man “who is now com- ing across the ocean.” Justice Dowling fixed bail in each indictment at $10,- 000. ; FORAKER HITS BACK Replies to President’s Statement on Federal Patronage. CITES ONE SPECIFIC CASE Ohio Man Selected for Postmaster of His Town Turned Down With a Rep- rimand When He Said Taft Was Losing His Following. ‘Washington, Feb. 11.—Senator For- aker has made reply to the president’s statement concerning charges that public patronage has been used by him (the president) for political pur- poses. He took the floor in the sen- ate on a quggstion of personal privilege and, Teading at length from the pres- ident’s correspondence with Willlam Dudley Foulke, proceeded to explain his ‘own attitude towards the federal patronage in Ohio. “It is difficult to prove cases of this character,” said Mr. Foraker, “be- cause ordinarily there is no evidence reduced to writing bearing on them.” “But, fortunately,” he added, “we have one case in Ohio where there is written testimony. I do not charge anybody with bad faith. I supposed all the while that the president was acting upon recommendations made to him without knowledge of basis of fact upon which these recommenda- tions rested.” He referred to the re- cess appointment of Charles H. Bry- son as postmaster at Athens, O., who, he said, was appointed without his solicitation upon recommendation of Representative Alfred Douglass. He then read from a local paper an inter- view with Mr. Bryson in which he stated that Taft lost his following in Ohio and Foraker had greatly grown in strength. At the conclusion of the reading of the interview Mr. Foraker observed that there was nothing in it hostile to Secretary Taft, but that it expressed an honest difference of opinion on a subject entirely within his rights of individual opinion. Mr. Bryson re- turned to Athens, said Mr. Foraker, entirely unconscious that he had made any trouble until a few days later when he received a letter from Repre- sentative Douglass telling of a talk he had with Postmaster General Meyer on the subject of the appointment. According to this letter Mr. Douglass had been sent for to be told that the president had decided not to appoint Mr. Bryson after all. Representative Douglass said that the postmaster general “was nice about it, but deter- mined, and evidently was carrying out the president’s orders.” Appeals to the White House. From the postoffice department Mr. Douglass went to the White House, where he took up the matter with Mr. Loeb, the president’s secretary, who said the president could see “no rea- son for appointing men to office who were not in harmony with his pol- icies.” Mr. Loeb, according to Mr. Douglass’ letter, sald the president was determined that Mr. Douglass should recommend another appoint- ment. Mr. Foraker said that Mr. Douglass had told Mr. Bryson that it would be advisable for him to come to Wash- ington and take the matter up him- self. After receiving a reply, dated Dec. 9, in which Mr. Bryson said he would be in Washington within a day or so, Mr. Douglass saw the president. The story of the conference at the ‘White House was told in a letter which Mr. Douglass immediately sent to Mr. Bryson, saying: “The president bluntly told me that I would have to recommend another maw.” Mr. Douglass said that he urged the president to reconsider, but that he was Insistent. Mr. Foraker said he did not want to comment upon the correspondence beyond showing the pressure that had been brought to bear on one man “who had expressed his personal view on a matter on which he had a right to express them.” Mr. Foraker asserted that he could establish to the entire satisfaction of any unbiased mind that there are a hundred such cases in Ohio. He said that estimate was no exaggeration, although the president’s hand could not be traced to all of them. He said they had heen engineered by men who represented the president. During his statement the senator was compelled to suspend in order that the senate might receive a mes- sage from the president. The ap- pearance of the White House messen- ger at this juncture provoked much merriment. DENIES THE ACCUSATION. President Not Using Federal Patron- age to Assist Taft. ‘Washington, Feb. 11.—Answer has been made by President Roosevelt to the recent public statements that he has made use of federal patronage to further the presidential interests of Becretary Taft. The answer is in the form of a letter addressed to Willlam Dudley Foulke of Richmond, Ind., and includes a letter from Mr. Foulke to *he president suggesting the meed of such a statement. The president begins by characteriz- ing the charges as “false and ma- llolous.” Te follows this with an an- alysis of all appointments sent by him to the senate for its action to show that in no case has the proximity of a presidential contest inflvenced his ac- tons, IEALOUS HUSBAND KILLED Bhot by Boarder Whose Life He Is Said to Have Threatened. Duluth, Feb. 11.—Henry Bolot, aged forty-seven, shot and alinost instantly I;med Marquis Chirbouno, aged sixty- ive. Bolot has for many years been fore- man of the Elliott Packing company here and Chirbouno a millworker at whose home Bolot and. ten-year- old daughter have boardgd Yor a num- ber of years. X i —— TR It 15 8ald that Chirbeuno was jeal- ous of Bolot, imagining that he was paying too much attention to Mrs. Chirbouno. If it had not been for Mzrs. Chirbouno Bolot would have been killed instead of her husband. Mrs. Chirbouno was awakened to Lear her husband moving about in the hall. muttering that he would kil somebody. She got up quietly and peered through the door of her room and from there she could see her hus- band stealthily entering Bolot's room. Chirbouno had a hatchet in his hand. Quietly as possible the woman ran | up behind her husband and caught hold of the arm that held the hatchet. Chirbouno uttered an exclamation of anger and tried to throw her off. The room was lighted dimly by a light turned low. Bolot awakened and, taking in the situation, reached for a revolver that lay on the dresser. Observing that Bolot was awake and prepared to de- fend himself the woman let go of her husband and ran. Chirbouno then approached Bolot threateningly, not fearing the revol- ver apparently, and Bolot shot him, inflicting a wound from which he died quickly. DECLARES IT A MYTH. Noted Rabbi Discusses Crucifixion of Christ by the Jews. Chicago, Feb. 11.—The story of the crucifixion of Jesus by the Jews was declared to be a slanderous myth by Dr. Emil G. Hirsch in his sermon at Sinal temple. He regarded the ac- count of the crucifixion as largely fanciful and declared intolerant Chris- tians had distorted it to make appear that the Jews executed the founder of the Christian church. “The account of the crucifixion is not possible of belief by those who have studied the customs of the age in which that great leader lived,” said Dr. Hirsch. “The Jewish law did not provide such a punishment and the Jews could not have enforced it if it | had. The details of the trial are not in accordance with practice. Finally the varying accounts of the supposed event in the different gospels are so contradictory that no judge would ad- mit them in evidence in any court.” MEETS MANY POLITICIANS Secretary Taft Puts in Busy Day at Kansas City. Kansas City, Feb. 11.—Secretary of War Taft, who is in this city, was the principal figure in a number of con- ferences, receptions and other forms of entertainment. Secretary Taft ar- rived by way of St. Louis, accom- panied by Walter 8. Dickey, chairman of the Missouri Republican central committee, and half a hundred other prominent Republicans from St. Louis, Kansas City and other Missouri cities. Breakfast was served at the Midland hotel, after which there were confer- ences with Republican committeemen from several nearby states who had come here to talk over with the sec- retary party conditions in their dis- | tricts. Victor Rosewater, editor of the Omaha Bee, and Willlam Hayward, chairman of the Nebraska state cen- tral committee, were among the first to be closeted with Mr. Taft. Later he received delegations from Kansas, OKklahoma and Texas. Following these conferences there was a reception at'the Missouri Re- publican club’s headquarters. In the evening Secretary Taft was the guest of the Association of Young Republicans of Missouri at a mam- moth banquet in Convention hall. Twelve hundred plates were laid and most Qf the prominent Republicans of Misscurd, as well as many from Kan- sas, Oklahoma and Nebraska, were present. FIGHT TO SEE THEIR DEAD Portuguese Anxious for Final View of King and Crown Prince. Lisbon, Feb. 11.—There was almost a riot on the part of the populace to get into the cathedral where the bod- ies of King Carlos and Crown Prince Luiz are lying in state. The crowd waiting outside for a chance to get a last sight of the murdered king and his son was so great that the police were unable to close the cathedral doors at the hour appointed for the beginning of the ceremonies of the final interment. It is estimated that no less than 20,000 people were striv- ing at one time to make their way into the cathedral. The police and the gendarmes made futlle efforts to drive this mass back from the por- tals. It was quite impossible to even hold the people in check. The surg- ing multitude thrust the police to one side and forced in a side door to the cathedral, through which it poured into the main edifice. Cavulry finally was summoned to disperse the crowd and found it nec- essary to charge before the people woul¢ move. There were no casual- ties. WOULD NAME LABOR TICKET Gompers Asked to Call National Con- vention. New York, Feb. 11.—At a meeting of the Central Federated union Pres- ident Samuel Gompers of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor was re-| quested by resolution to call a con- vention of labor union representa- tives from all over the country for the purpose of nominating candidates for president and vice president of the United States and adopting a platform for a Natjonal Labor party. The re- cent decisions of the supreme court ir which lahor laws were declared un- constitutional were criticised and it was declared that ‘laboring men throughout the country must combine to change the Constitution. Judges, it Was said, owed their appointments | to men opposed to labor and must be superseded before labor would re- ceive the justice to which it is en- titled. ¢ 1 Colorado Bandit Kills Austrian. Pueblo, Colo., Feb. 11.—Joseph Russ and six Austrian companions were held up by a lone highwayman. In the melee that followed Russ was Kkilled by & bullet from the bandit’s revolver. ATTACKS MR BRYAN New Jersey Democrat Makes Sar- castic Speech in House. HAS STOLEN THE BIG STICK Decléres Nebraskan “Is Crucifying the Principles of Democracy and Amer- fcan Individuality and Ambition on the Cross of Socialism.” | Washington, Feb. 11.—Debate on the Indian appropriation bill under the fiveminute rule was resumed in the house of representatives. At the very outset politics were injected into the proceedings when Mr. Leake, a Dem- ocrat of New Jersey, denounced Will- fam J. Bryan and his methods. Several Republicans and Democrats objected hecause he was not speaking to the bill. By unanimous consent, however, he was allowed to proceed. Mr. Leake said he had been sur- prised at the usurpation of the pre- rogatives of the delegates to the Den- ver convention next July. There were some men, he charged, who believed that this was the time and the house of representatives the place to nom- Inate a candidate on the Democratic ticket, “and,” he said, “unless my silence might be construed as an en- dorsement of the nomination of Will- iam J. Bryan, I rise for the purpose of making this protest. “[f,” proceeded Mr. Leake, “I adopt- ed the example of Mr. Bryan I would vehemently condemn him, as he did the distinguished Democrat, the Hon. Grover Cleveland.” But he would, he sald, content himself with admitting that Mr. Bryan was honest, consistent | and sincere. He declared, however, that “Mr. Bryan’s familiarity with the decalogue better qualified him for the pulpit than the presidency.” Democrats Hiss the Speaker. Republican laughter greeted this utteranice, which immediately after- ward was supplemented by Demo- cratic hisses when Mr. Leake said of Mr. Bryan: “He has taken the big stick from the president of these Unit- ed States and, to use his own simile, he is now crucifying the principles of Democracy and American individual- ity and ambition cn the cross of so- clalism.” The president, thus being deprived of his big stick, Mr. Leake | declared, had resorted to the big slipper. Mr. Leake expressed the opinion that the American people did not need spanking nor scolding from Mr. Bryan, Le sarcastically referring to the latter as “the gentleman from Ne- braska.” He thought the health of the American community was such that a doctor was needed and he hoped that either of the two great political parties would get ome and that in his adminisiration of the rem- edies for the cure of the many ills he would not forget when men condemn I the American railroads that the Amer- jcan railway system is one of the greatest in the world and that Amer- fcan business men and American en- terprise were the best on earth. Kills His Bride and Himself. Richmond, Ky., Feb. 11.—Alvin Newby, an employe of the Southern Lumber company at Valley View, fol- -lowing a quarrel, shot and killed his bride and then turned his revolver upon himself, firing a bullet into his head.
