GODATTE WILL BE TRIED - AT “FALLS" NEXT WEEK Continued from First Page Godatte running a dray. He finally gave up the dray business and was employed by the Crookston Lumber company in various capa- cities. He left this city and went to St. Paul and entered the employ of the Great Northern, running from St. Paul to Seattle. About nine months afterwards he came back to Bemidji and went to North Dakota for several years, working in the harvest fields. Godatte was always industrious and was a hard worker. In May, 1906, Godatte got out cedar and merchantable timber on a claim five miles from Big Falls, the contract lasting until Septem- ber. About this time Godatte made a contract with Carlos Williams, the man whom he is accused of murdering, for all merchantable timber on the latter’s premises. Godatte cut down trees and built two camps during the fall of 1906, and built a barn on the place and installed a logging road. As there was much snow during the winler of 1906, Williams ad- vised Godatte to give up the con- tract as they could make more money on it. It was at this time that the first trouble arose between Godatte and Williams—disputing about the timber contract. Godatte continued to live on the place where he was cutting the timber until the time of the shooting. Godatte is well knows as “Jim” all over this country. Opinion is somewhat divided as to the guilt or innocense of Godattte of the charge of murder in the first degree, some claiming that he was justified killing Williams. C. W. Scrutchin of this city, who will defend Jim, was also attorney for “Shorty” Wesley and Paul Fournier, who were convicted of having killed N. O. Dahl and who are now serving life sentence in the state’s prison for that offense. The “‘Daily Sentinel.” We are told that the “Daily Sentinel” will be resurrected Satur- day evening, after having slept the sleep of the just for a year past, and will be rushed inte the breach lest some opposition candidates who are conducting a clean campaign as to the use of printer’s ink should be elected. It was hoped that this city campaign would be free from mud-slinging and incriminating newspaper “‘roasts;” and should the Sentinel turn loose any mud batteries, it is certain that it will but react on that publication. The public does not care for the villification of citi- zens with whom they come into contact every day, and with whose personalities and habits they are perfectly familiar, and as we have stated before, if the Sentinel starts any such crusade it will but besmirch the peovle who are behind the movement. TOURNAMENT ASSOGIATION FIXED DATES FOR MEET Northern Minnesota Association Met at Cass Lake..--Next Tourna- ment at Park Rapids. Cass Lake, Feb. 14.—(Special to the Daily Pioneer.)—The exe- cutive committee of the North- ern Minnesota Firemen’s Tourna- ment association held a meeting in this village last evening, at which plans were formulated for the hold- ing of the annual tournament of the association next June. Delegates, representing the fire departments of their respective villages, were present from Park Rapids, Grand Rapids, Ely and Cass Lake. After a general discussion as to the proper time to hold the tourna- ment it was decided that the dates for the annual meeting and the races, at Park Rapids, should be Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, June 23, 24, 25 and 26. Last year, and in 1905, when the tournaments were held in towns on the Messaba Range, the dates were later—in the month of August—that time being more satisfactory to the range towns. towns. It was deemed best to hold the tournament for 1908 in June. Mr. Arundl of Park Rapids, who was president of the association, was not present, but a delegate from that place stated that Mr. Arundl did not desire to serve as president of the association and requested that he be relieved of the office. His request was granted, and Byron F. Knapp of Park Rapids was elected presi- dent to succeed Mr. Arundl. The delegates from Park Rapids assured those present at the meeting that the municipal authorities and the citizens generally of Park Rapids will put forth every effort to royally entertain the visiting tiremen during the tournament next June. The meeting of the executive com- mittee was a most harmonious one, which demonstrates that the best of | feeling prevails among the four departments which are still left as| members of the association, which consisted of nine northern Minne- sota fire departments at the time the tournament was held at Cass Lake in 1906. Best Show that ever struck Bemidji. The Dougherty Stock company gave a very fine performance last| evening, and all those present state that the company is by far the best that ever played repertoire in this city. The specialties are very fine, and the cast in the plays are strong. Bemidji people should not fail to see the company, as they are worthy in every respect. Tonight the company will present; *“The Slave Girl,” a beautiful story | of southern life “Befo’ the Wah.” | There will be specialties and mov- ing pictures and illustrated songs. New P. M. atthe “Falls.” Word comes from Washington to the effect that on Monday last John C. Chamberlain was confirmed in the senate as the postmaster at International Falls, hisname hav-| ing been sent to the senate by Presi- dent Roosevelt.

COMMEMDS BEMIDJI ON PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS Prominent Railroad Man Speaks of Local Enterprise, and Makes an Optimestic Prediction. G. W. Thomas of St. Paul, assist- ant general freight agent for the Chicago, Great Western railway, and Thomas H. Hughes, traveling freight agent of the ‘“Maple Leaf” railway of St. Paul, were in_the city yesterday and last evening looking after business interests for the rail- ways. Both gentlemen are great ad- mires of Bemidji and her enterpris- ing and go-ahead c'tizens, and they are not backward in stating the fact. Mr. Hughes said: “I cannot but note the progress which your townis making toward metropolitan proportions. I notice there has been a large amount of building going on during the past year and also that there have been many public improvements made; especially is this true in the matter of the streets and sidewalks. “The establishing of a perma- nent grade on the streets of the city, the adjusting of different buildings to their proper heights, the putting in§ of hundreds of feet of cement walks about the city involves a great amount of labor and your city council and your citizens generally are to be con- gratulated on the improved appear- ance af . the city. “I have no doubt, jud ging from the influx of people to your city dur- ing the past year, that Bemidji will { within the next two years have a | population of 10,000 inhabitants.” Royal Neighbors Visited Tenstrike. A party of Royal Neighbors of Bemidji went to Tenstrike last even- ing, where they officiated at the in- stalling of the officers of the Ten- strike Royal Neighbor lodge, and also did the secret work in initiating several candidates.

Alleged Gas Meter Robbers Asphyxi- ated at Philadelphia. Philadelphia, Feb. 14. — Martin Brady and John Bartolett were as- phyxiated here in what the police be- leve was an attempt to obtain enough money to buy whisky. The two men were found lying in the. cellar of Bra- dy’s homie by a gas meter inspector. Brady had a “quarter in the slot” gas meter in his arms. It had been wrenched from its fastenings. Mrs. Brady had been away from home for several days and her husband invited Bartolett to spend a few days with him. The police believe that the two men tried to extract mon&y with which to buy liquor from the meter and in so doing sacrificed their lives. NEARING DANGER POINT. Rivers at Pittsburg and Vicinity Ris- ing Rapidly. Pittsburg, Feb. 14—Following & warning issued by the local United States weather bureau rivermen, busi- ness houses and persons residing in the lowlands about Greater Pittsburg are moving all perishable goods to places of safety. Owing to-the pres- ent high temperature and threatening heavy rains the snow and ice in the watersheds of the Allegheny and Youghiogheny rivers may melt and cause a flood. All the small streams are rising slowly and in many places the water is beyond its banks. It is expected that the rivers here will reach the danger point in a few hours. Would-Ee Suicide” Escapes Death. New York, Feb. 14.—John Grant, an unemployed printer, jumped from the Brooklyn bridge and although he landed among the floating ice cakes in the river 200 feet below escaped with only a few minor hurts.

It is believed Grant was despondent because of in- ability to get work. & EULOGIZES PRESIDENT Champ Clark, Missouri Democrat, Lauds Chief Executive, 1S NOT A" BLIND ADMIRER Declares. Mr. Roosevelt, After the Manner of Strong Men, Has Both Pronounced Virtues and Glaring Faults of Character. ‘Washington, Fel. 14—Representa- tive Champ Clark of Missouri oceupied the attentiow of the house of repre- sentatives for over an hour in an address upon the president’s recent special message to congress, the finan- clal disturbance of last fall and the tariff question. It was a characteris- tle talk and aroused the interest of the house to a high degree. In opening Mr. Clark asserted that a reasonable view should be taken in matters touching the president, but that it had not been done as a rule. “He 1s such a belligerent personage,” he declared, “that his lightest word is a challenge to combat.” The pres- ident, he said, could not express his views wupon any question under heaven, “even upon a subject so prosaic and threadbare as the pros- pective state of the weather,” without precipitating a row, his extreme ad- herents swearing that there never had been ‘'such a weather prophet on earth since Adam and Eve were driven from the garden of Eden and his ex- treme enemies vociferating that he knows no more about the weather than does a ground hog.” The presi- dent’s whole public life, said Mr. Clark, had been one long succession of spectacular fights. No man had been more viciously assailed by men of his own party “and ncne was ever, while still in the flesh, so lavishly lauded by some of the opposing party,” “but,* he said, “the truth is that this extraordinary man has waxed strong- er and sironger by waging his bat- tles.” Even defeat, he declared, had made him a larger and More Commanding Figure. “So,” he gald, “amid the swirl of things, the deluge of words, the shout- ing of the captains, the beating of tomtoms, the groans of crippled Re- publicans, the yells of friend and foe,” one who was a personal friend of Theodore Roosevelt, the man, but a political opponent of Roosevelt, the politician or statesman, had “but little chance perhaps of being heard in this babel of voices.” Mr. Clark, however, ineisted tha: he would have his say. He spoke. on his personal liking for the president and said that although, after the manner of strong men, the president had pronounced virtues and glaring faults of character, he had never abused him nor had he grown hysterical in admiration of him, but he had supported him when he was right and fought him “tooth and nail” when he was wrong. He believed that was the way the president wanted to be treated. “He must, indeed,” said Mr. Clark, “entertain ineffable con- tempt for the inveterate sycophants who' grovel before him on all occa- sions and who, no matter what he does or says, throw high their sweaty caps in the air and shout.” Mr. Clark spoke of the claim that President Roosevelt was better than his party, “which fact,” he estimated, “easily could be without running any imminent danger of being translated after the manner of Elijah in a chariot of fire by reason of his goodness.” IN ABOUT TWO WEEKS. Vote Expected in Senate on Aldrich Currency Bill. ‘Washington, Feb. 14.—According to a programme being arranged by sen- ate Republican leaders a vote will be bhad on the Aldrich currency bill in about two weeks. The indications are that there will not be a large number of Republican senators to speak on the measure and that the speeches by Democrats will be addressed carefully to objections raised by individuals to certain features of the bill. From present indications Senator Heyburn is the only Republican senator who plans to make extended remarks against the passage of the bill. SIX PERSONS KILLED. Disastrous Explosion Occurs at Provi- dence, R. I Providence, R. 1., Feb. 14.—Six per- sons were killed by the explosion of a mixer in the starch factory of C. S. Tanner. Three other persons were fnjured. Their condition is not re- garded as serious. The building was badly wrecked by the explosion and fire completed the work of destruc- tion. The exact cause of the explosion remains to be determined. The prop- erty loss will probably not exceed $100,000. LiiPLOYERS’ LIABILITY BILL Measure Introduced in Both Senate and House. ‘Washington, Feb. 14—A ‘compre- hensive employers’ liability bill was introduced in the senate by Senator La Follette of Wisconsin and in the house by Representative Sterling of Illinots. The authors say the bill has the endorsement of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engine- men and Brotherhood of -~Railway Trainmen and is intended to meet the | recent decision of the supreme court in which the employers’ liability act of June 11, 1906, was declared uncon- stitutional. Every common carrier while en- ‘gaged Iu interstate or foreign com- merce or commerce between the pos- sessions of the United States is made liable to its employes who are in- jured while employed in such com- merce, when such injuries are due to the negligence or mismanagement of any officer or employe of such carrier, or when due to defects or insuffi- clencies in equipment. This provision Is Tade to carriers in the terrjtories, the District of Co- lumbia and the Panama canal zone and carrlers engaged in the trans- portation of the United States mails. It is provided also that an injured | employe shall not be held to be guilty of contributory negligence in any case where the violation of law by the carrier contributed to such injury, also that questions of fact relating to neg- ligence shall be for the jury to deter- ming JURIST OUT FOR GOVERNOR His Platform Is Enforcement of Sun- day and Liquor Laws. Kausas City, Feb. 14.—Judge Will- fam M. Wallace of the criminal court of this city, who recently has heen meking a vigorous campaign for Sun- day observance, has announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomina- tlon for governor of Missouri. His platform declares for “the statewide and permanent enforcement of - the Sunday and liquor laws.” Judge Wallace's crusade resulted in the indictment of hundreds of actors, actresses and theatrical managers and attaches for the violation of the law making it a misdemeanor to perform unnecessary labor on Sunday and he has placed them under bonds amount- ing in the aggregate close to $100,000. Tuesday he ordered four prominent theatrical managers they fai! 2d to furnish proper bond and they were only kept from going be- | hind the bars by securing a writ of habeas corpus. He has closed hun- dreds of poolrooms, cigar stores, bar- ber shops and other small businesses on the Sabbath and the county grand | jury as a result of his activity con- tinues weekly to indict theatrical peo- ple who violate the law. COMPROMISE ON RATES. Railroads Hope to Stimulate Lumber Shipments, Seotile, Wash., Feb. 14—At a con- ference held here between attorneys for the Great Northern and Northern Pacific railways, Northwest: lumber- men and the business interests a ten- tative compromise of the rate ques- tlon was reached by the railroads offering to haul lumber at the old rates, leaving it optional with the | carriers whether or not the shippers shall be required to put up bonds to guarantee the payment of the new raie in case the railroads secure a fa-orable decision from the interstate cc.amerce commission. Under this agreement the railroads hepe to stim- ulate the lumber shipments and the lumber and shingle manufacturers gain a point in not being absolutely obliged to put up bonds to guarantee the payment of the new rate. The en- tire matter will be presented to Judge Hanford of the United States court as soon as the necessary details can be agreed upon. Japs Will Test New Law. Victoria, B. C., Feb. 14—One hun- dred and seventy Japanese are being | detained in quarantine kere, failing to pass the educational test in the Natal act. They are likely to be ex- cluded.

Tokio, Feb. 14—After an exciting | debate lasting six hours, which devel- oped into a riot on the floor of the | house of representatives, the financial jbudget was passed by a majority of 1 102. Speakers on both sides occupied { ‘r a long tinie and towards the last they | | | howled at the chair and charged favor- itism, the opposing members demand- ing an apology. The chair suspended the session for half an heur and upon resuming | the chair apologized to the opposition. Impressive speeches were made { during the debate, all making a point | of the feature that more than one-half of the budget was expended in arma- ments. It was also urged that the fiscal measures of the government did | not contain provisions to prevent an outflow of gold while the balance of trade had a tendency against Japan, fear being expressed that the basis of the gold reserve might be endangered. Tpon the side of the ministry the principal speaker eloquently argued that it was both unwise and danger- .ous to publicly discuss the ‘nation’s finances from a pessimistic standpoint, thereby creating unnecessary alarm abroad. He called attention to the ! natural resources of Japan, which | were only awaiting development by cheap capital. BOY PRISONERS IN FIGHT! One Dead and Three Others Seri- ously Hurt.
