SUBSCRIPTION-~-$5.00 PER ANNUM —_— REAL EDITORS SHOULD CONTROL. Considerable of a controversey has arisen between Ed. A. Paradis, editor of the Midway News, and W. M. James of Breckenridge, the presi- dent of the Minnesota State Edi- torial Association, relative to an article which Mr, Paradis recently published in his paper concerning the editorial association and its object, and in which Mr. Paradis insinuated that the association is run by representives of the paper trusts and other “interests.” The Pioneer believes that while Mr. Paradis is rather caustic in his remarks, he is more than half right in what he says. The writer has attended several meetings of the Minnesota State Editorial As- sociation and has been much im- pressed with the officiousness of the representatives of the type foundries and paper companies; in fact, these gentry seem to be running things and have been aided and abetted by editors, who are amply repaid for their services. It is too bad that the association is not conducted more in the interests of the REAL editors and not for the benefit, almost wholly, of the type founderies, manufacturers of patent insides, paper manufacturs, etc. While the annual outings are en- joyed they would be much more profitable and full of more interest 1f conducted wholly and solely by the editors of the state. Editor Paradis is about right in his plain talk concerning the asso- ciation and its management. (OBSERVATIONS. By A. G. Rutledge.] Charity begins at home, and gen- erally ends there. Having a load on his mind shouldn’t distress a man if it is’nt all junk. Wisdom is mostly in lookin’ wise and lettin’ de fools split the kindlin’ ‘wood. A college education never hurts anybody if he was willing to learn something afterwards. Don’t jump at the conclusion that there is no such thing as luck merely because you never had any- thing else. All the world may not exactly love a lover, but it always takes quite an interest in his letters when they are read to the jury. Only One Alternative. A cynic was smiling at the extrava- gant attentions that are lavished by the rich upon pet dogs. He spoke of the canine operations for appendicitis, the canine tooth crownings, the canine wardrobes, that occur in New York, and then he said: “How servants hate these pampered curs! At a house where I was calling one warm day the fat and pompous butler entered the drawing room and said: “‘Did you ring, madam? “‘Yes, Harrison. I wish you to take Fido out walking for two hours.” “Harrison frowned slightly. ‘But Fido won't follow me, madam,’ he sald, “‘Then, Harrison, you must follow Fido.’” P — Leaving Home. . I would give a few words of encour- agement to any young man who may hesitate about leaving home. There is nothing In the world so good for a man, say, between twenty-five and thirty-five years of age, especially if unmarried, as a visit to distant coun- tries, to learn other tongues, to see new sights and to experience strange ad- ventures, such as he may readily en- counter by throwing aside the restrie- tlons of home life and taking up work abroad.—Frederic Shelford, B. Sc., in Engineer. Point Not Well Taken. “I observe,” said the editor of the magazine, looking over the manuscript that had been submitted to him by the aspiring author thereof, “that you have used the phrase ‘ean hours.’ How can there be such a thing as a ‘lean’ hour?”. “Why not?’ demanded the other. “There is such a thing as a spare mo- ment, Isn’t there ?’—Chicago Tribune. Good Advice. Never forget the advice of Themis- focles. Said that ancient, “I would be- stow my daughter upon a man without money, but not upon money without a man.” Just change money for title and see the different reading: “I would bestow my daughter upon a man with- out title, but not upon title without a man.”—New York Press. Willing to Help. Tramp—Can you assist me along the road, mum? Lady of the House—Pers jgonally I cannot, but I will unchain my @og, and I know he will be most pleased todoso. .- S e DEPUTIES AND MINERS CLASH One Negro Killed and Two Officers Wounded. BLOODSHED IN ALABAMA Following Disorder Troops With Gat: ling Guns Are Distributed Through: out the Distriot—Striking Miners and Their Families Being Evictea From Company Houses Throughout the Affected District. Birmingham, Ala., July 22—A clash between deputies and negro miners in the Blue Creek region, twenty miles south of Birmingham, resulted in ene negro being shot and killed_and two deputies, Newsom and Whatley, being seriously wounded. The shooting created much excite ment. There was a general distribu- tion of troops throughout the district following this trouble, a Gatling gun being placed at Republic and one at Blossburg, while troops have been distributed so that they can be mob- {lized in a very short time. The evic: tion of miners from company houses began at No. 7 mine, Pratt division There was no disorder. NOW UNDERGOING REVISION Taft’s Speech of Acceptance Practi cally Completed. Hot Springs, Va., July 22.—Three days more of diligent consideration and careful revision will be given by William H. Taft to the speech he is to deliver at Cincinnati Tuesday next in acknowledgment of the official no- tification that he is the presidential | nominee of the Republican party. Although the speech is to be supple mented in September by an extended letter of acceptance it is the purpose of the candidate to take this earlier opportunity to set forth precisely and as concisely as-may be possible his position on the “surprising multitude” of questions which must be dealt with in the campaign. The importance politically of this announcing himself has been impressed upon Mr. Taft by the numerous political advisers with whom he has consulted, and he has decided to take the risk of being te- dious in the delivery of a speech of an hour and a half, which will be fully {lluminating, in°place of the thirty- minute talk he had at first believed would suffice. But there is much con- sulting yet to be done and undoubted- 1y many changes of expression will be made. Frank B. Kellogg has consent- ed to assist in the revising process until Friday, when Mr. Taft has prom- ised himself that the work shall be finished. CHICAGO MAY BE SELECTED Republican Congressmen Discuss Campaign Headquarters. Chicago, July 22.—Chicago probably will be the headquarters of the Repub- lican congressional committee, as well as the center of activity for the pres- idential ticket. A conference of the congressional leaders was held at the TUnion League club and another meet: ing will be held late in the week. Speaker Joseph G. Cannon, Com: gressman William B. McKinley, Con- gressman Henry C. Loudenslager of New Jersey and Senator James Hem- enway of Indiana were present and went over the list of states in which the work of the congressional com- mittee will be centered. It was agreed that the burden ot the work will be in the West and for this reason it was thought advisable that the heagnarters of the committee be established in Chicago. ‘When the conferees return it is probable that an agreement will be reached as to the chairman of the committee to succeed James Sherman, the vice presidential nominee. Con- gressman James A. Tawney will be present at the second conference. TO THANK UNITED STATES China Sends a Special Washington. Peking, July 22.—An edict just is- sued directing Tang Shao Yi, governor of Mukden province, to proceed to Washington to thank the American government on behalf of China for re- storing a portion of the “boxer indem- nity,” is as follows: “Since the signing of the treaty be- tween America and China the rela- tions between the two governments have been most sincere. Now that America has returned a portion of the ‘boxer’ indemnity China should send an envoy to Washington for the pur- pose of conveying the thanks of the government for this act. Therefore, let Tang Shao Yi receive the rank of presidert of the government board and proceed to the United States.” Envoy to Lusitania Lowers Her Record. Liverpool, July 22.—The Cunard line steamer Lusitania has broken her eastward record to Queenstown over the long course. Her time in transit was 5 days and 87 minutes and her average rate of speed for the entire distance was 24.32 knots an hour. Her best previous run, 5 days, 3 hours and 21 minutes, was made at an average of 23.77. The present record is an improvement of 2 hours and 44 min- utes. SMART SET IS SHOCKED. John A. Van Rennslaer Arrested on Charge of Extortien. New York, July 22—John A. Van Renauslaer, son of Mrs. John King Van Rennslaer and a member of ond of New York’s oldest families, was taken into custody on a charge of attempted extortion and the “smart ‘set” I shocked at the news, to state it mildly. The arrest was made on advice! trom Chief of Police Crowley of 2iew- | ot, R.~L., who TeceliEd & Gomplamnt from Mrs: Van Rennslaer that her son had written a letter threatening her bodily harm unless she provided him with funds. Van Rennslaer is thirty- four years of age and married. Van Rennslaer is connected with a local brokerage house. The detectives and ~ Lieutenant Mannion, before whom Van Rennslaer was brought in the police station, declare that the young man said he had written the letter, which is without any conven- tional beginning or ending and of ‘which the postscript is unsigned.

SIX MASKED MEN " RAID GHIO TOWN Attempt to Force Bank Cash- ler to Open Safe, Ada, O., July 22.—Six masked men rode into this place and attempted to rob the local bank. While three of the gang waited near the bank build- ing the other three went to the home of Cashier Myers and, arousing him, compelled him to go to the bank with them. They attempted to compel My- ers to open the safe. The cashier, however, convinced the men that the safe was equipped with a time lock and that it could not be opened. Thereupon two of the robbers took Myers to a nearby woods and tied him up, the other four men remaining at the bank to blow the safe. Myers, however, managed to escape from his captors and promptly turned in a fire alarm, arousing the citizens. The cracksmen jumped on their horses and galloped out of town. They were pursued for some distance, but finally escaped In the darkness. Blood: hounds will be placed on their trail. The robbers did not succeed in open- ing the safe. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.

Have: you never noticed that great Dersonal bulk and chivalry go almost always together? Well, they do, and I am reminded of a circumstance that happened long years ago. There was in congress from the state of Alabama a-gentleman named Dixon Lewis. He ‘was notorfous for his stoutness as well as for his courtliness and abilities. This gentleman was a Virginian by birth, but removed. early to Alabama, which state he represented during several terms of congress and was in the sen- ate at the time of his death in 1848. Blographers relate of him that one time after the adjournment of con- gress he was on his way home in a steamer that was wrecked and while he had an opportunity to do so refused to take a seat in a small boat because his great weight would jeopardize the lives of others in the boat, and, al- though for a time he was in great dan- ger, he was at last rescued. There was a noticeable combination of chivalry and fatness.—Washington Post. RIGHE She Wak, - 55,0 “They tell me your husband draws a salary for sleepin’.” “Sure, that's right, Mrs. Clancy.
