INSPEGTED CREAMERIES SAW PROGAESSIVE TOWN Continued from First Page who made up the party and and will undoubtedly work up a healthy senti- ment for dairying and farming in an up-to-date in Beltrami county. O. T. Davids, the Bagley land man, and Messrs. Kaiser and Reff secured rigs ahd took the party through a country between Shevlin and Bagley that is being rapidly transformed from a dreary, stumpy waste into a well-cultivated tract of farm land where the dairy cow will soon reign supreme as the farmer’s mint. The Bemidji crowd was shown through the elegant new creamery at Shevlin, of which Herb Lyon is the president and K. Eldvick treasurer. Mr. Rindahl is the buttermaker and he has been making a brand of butter “just like mother useto make.”’ The Shevlin creamery is considered one of the very best creameries in the north of the state and is receiving manner a very liberal patronage from the|, farmers. All who went on the trip are loud in their praise of the royal manner in which they were treated, and are especially thankful for the whole- souled hospitality extended by A. Kaiser, E. H. Reff and O. H. Dav- ids. = PUBLISHING A BOOSTING DAILY WORRIES THEM ALL Continued from First Page printing because they can get it ten cents cheaper. “If this is the condition of affairs it would serve the people of Bemidji just right to be given a weekly ser- vice for a spell. “People will expect a paper to boost everything for further orders, keep a big force of men busy getting out the daily happenings, and then when it comes to supporting the paper properly they are woefully lacking. “The Pioneer has a payroll of $11,000 per year, which is very, very light for a daily paper. They can’t pay salaries on wind. People -want a good live daily, but when it comes to paying the price too often they fall down. “The Grand Forks papers receive splendid support. The advertisers there use twice the space they do in Bemidji and Crookston and pay twice as much for it, and do it cheerfully. They know the value of a daily newspaper to a city. “If Bemidji gets a weekly paper for a spell they would ‘“‘come to” in short order.” School Board Meeting. Several important business matters were settled at the meeting of the school board Wednesday evening. The board reelected the old officers to their former positions, J. P. Lahr being made oresident; T. J.[ Andrews treasurer, and G.. M. Torrauce clerk. The contract for building the new stairway in the main building and a few other repairs in the central school was let to Thomas Johnson of this city. 5 An agreement was made between the board and Matt Mayer whereby the former agrees to rent the Mayer house on Third street for extra school room during the next| nine months providing the latter will remodel the house into four rooms. This will enlarge the seat- ing capacity sufficiently for the present. T. J. Andrews, as treasurer, was required to furnish a surety bond in .the sum of $40,000, and the old committee was re-appointed to purchase school books and supplies. FARMERS ARE BUILDING NEW TELEPHONE LINES Latest ‘“‘Hello” System Is Being Built From the Becida Country to Bemidji The Farmers’ Telephone company of Becida is the latest tn the nature of an independent telephone comany to be organized and start building their line to connect with the North- wes tern Telephone Exchange com- pany of Bemidji. The Becida company organized a short time ago with Will Morris of Becida and J, J. Jenkinson as two of the prominent officers and principal promoters of company. The object of the Becida Farmers’ Telephone company is to give phone service to twenty or more farmers in the vicinity of Becida and toward Bemidji, along the proposed line. ‘The line, when completed will be some eighteen miles in length and already poles have been set within some few miles of this city. Wires will be laid and connections made with Becida just as soon as the line is complete to the city, when the circuit will be cut into the local office of the Northwestern Exchange company. It is the intention of the promoters of this company to extend the line some ten miles further in order to use the ’phone service. The new line will start with twenty-two subscribers and it is the fourth farmers telephone line to be connected with the local telephone exchange, the other three being the new Grant Valley, Cassler and Lake Plantagnet. Mrs. Henry Funkley and little daughter, Esther, of this city went to Kelliher last evening near where they will visit with Mrs. Funkley’s sister for two weeks. Meanwhile Mr. Funkley,candidate for the repub- lican nomination to the legislature is “batching it.” BELIEVE B. F. WRIGHT Prominent Resident of Bemidji Has IS SURE OF NOMINATION Been Investigating the Situation in Fifteenth District. “There is not the least doubt in my mind that R. F. Wright of Park Rapids will win -the republican nomination as candidate for judge of the Fifteenth Judicial district at the primaries to be held September 15, and that his opponent, A. L. Thwing of Grand Rapids will be defeated by a very comfortable majority.” Thus spoke a prominent resident of Bemidji who has been mazking a quiet trip to Itasca county (the home of Mr. Thwing) during the past two weeks and who has also carefully observed the signs in Hubbard and Beltrami counties. In speaking to the Pioneer, the gentleman referred to "had no hesi- tancy in stating that he had. been somewhat in doubt as to the truth of the statement made that Mr. Thwing would not carry his own county, but that he had talked to many voters of Grand Rapids and many other parties of Itasca county, and he was now confident that Thwing was a defeated man, Speaking of the situation, Pioneer informant said: “Itasca county is Mr. Thwing’s home county and many living there may vote for him from a sense of loyalty, but from what I got .in actual contact with many voters I am satisfied that he cannot by any possible means carry that county. The people residing in Itasca county, and wmore especially in Grand Rapids, as a rule, do not consider Mr. Thwing as being good judicial timber. Heis, however -up to the standard required for district judge.” The acts of Mr. Thwing’s man- ager for Beltrami county has lost that gentleman many votes that he might possibly have otherwise gotten had he chosen a more popular manager for this county. ® The ridiculous claims made by the Beltrami county manager are being laughed at on every hand and the very evident desire of the manager to have Mr. Thwing elected so that he (the manager) may hold a fat office is only reacting against Mr. Thwing. On the other hand the clean, dignified campaign which has been made by Mr. Wright has won him hosts of friends throughout the dis- trict who will vote for him in prefer- ence to Mr. Thwing for republican nomination of judge of the Fifteenth Judicial district. the Operations at Local Hospital. Several patients have been suc- cessfully operated upon at the St. Anthony’s hospital in this city dur- ing the last week. This local insti- tution is gaining an enviable repu- tation as a resort for those needing to. ated up¥n. Mrs: _Keef‘éf of ‘Bazley was success- fully. submitter, to the knife at the city hospital %ast week. . Mrs. Keefe is in good ‘condition and is rapidly Tecovering her normal health, Dr. Palvier and Aloy, Lappen of this city were operated upbn for appendicitis last Friday evening and are now sitting up and will soon” be out of doors again. Anton Horn of International Falls' submitted to an operation Monday morning for obstruction of the bowels. ' Mr. Horn is improy- ing rapidly and will be discharged from ‘the hospital in a very few days. Band Is “‘Up Against It.” The members of the Bemidji Band are slightly “‘up against it” for a con- cert this week. Professor Fred Theriault sprained his ankle Wednes- day afternoon and will be unable to come over from Cass \Lake untill next week and, to add to the boys’ troubles, the tuba player was offered a position in Norris & Rowe’s circus band and went off with that company. However, two additional players were secured this week and, with another practice this éveninz, the band boys expect to give their weekly concert on Sunday. The last two concerts given by the Bemidji Band were well attended and greatly’ appreciated by the people who listered to them. R. W. Reed Returned. R. W. Reed, the photographer, returned last night from New York City and other eastern points. Mr. and was in New York during one or two of the hottest days of the summer. He states that the heat in the city was something awful and that . there were over 600,000 people on Coney Island for the benefit of the ocean breezes on one Sunday. Mr. Reed went from New York to Norfolk, Virginia and thence back through West Virginia, Ohio, and home. Mr. Reed had a very fine trip and is well satisfied with his vacation. Bemidiji Horses at Warren. In the races at Warren Wednes- day, two Bemidji horses participated and both “got into the money.” In the free-for-all pace or trot, i Prince Hal, owned by Begsley & Gunsalus of Bemidji, took second money, the race being won by Casperdeen, in three straight heats. Prince Hal was second and Victor third. The best time in this race |was 2:134. Brownie Mac, owned by T. J. Nary of Park Rapids and driven by Thomas Newby of this city, won third money in the 2:40 pace, Noon Bells being first and Lady Sprague second.

Well, you don’t know how toasted corn flakes can be unless you eat CORN FLAKES [70astea] The E-C process of steam-cooking retains and emphasizes in E-C Corn Flakes all the natural flavor of the corn, and the E-C toast- ing process makes every flake dainty and crisp, the most delicious morsel of corn food anyone ever tasted. You'll say so, too. No artificial flavoring is used in E-C. At Your Grocer’s, 10 Cents.

USE THEIR OWN METHODS National Committeemen of the Sev. eral States Instructed to Proceed Immediakely With the Collection of Money, Devising Such Ways and Meane as May Be Deemed Best ir Their Particular Locality. Chicago, Aug. 14—The Democratic ‘uational campaign fund of 1908 will e raised through appeals made to the individual states for contributions. ‘Bach state, under the direction of its national committeeman or a financial representative designated for the pur- pose, will determine its own method Ef raising money. The general plan ecame known on the arrival here of ‘Chairman Mack of the national com- mittee from Lincoln and the plan is understood to have met the entire approval of Willlam J. Bryan. John W. Kern, vice presidential candidate on the Democratic ticket, and mem- bers of the. campaign text book com- mittee accompanied Mr. Mack to this olty. The financial committee, of which Colonel Moses C. Wetmore of St. Louis is chairman, generally agrees that between $500,000 and $1,000,000 will be required to finance the legiti- mate expenses of the coming presiden- tial struggle. The devising of ade- quate methods to provide these means has occasioned Governor Charles N. Haskell of Oklahoma, treasurer of the national committee, and Colonel Wet- more no little concern and the adop- | tion of the plan announced to raise money by states is belleved to be a solution of the problem. State pride, the financial committee feels, will be developed and as a result efforts will be made to make contributions as lagge as possible. The financial com- mittee, however, will arrange to en- lst monetary aid from all those who have indicated that they are ready to contribute in a substantial way. The contributions to the various financial representatives in the states will be made up of small donations. Collection of Funds Ordered. The national committes has com- municated with the national commit- teemen in the several states and in- structed them to proceed immediately with the collection of funds and to this end have suggested that a finan- clal representative be appointed in each state, with assistants in the counties, who will devise such ways and means as may be deemed best to obtain funds in their own particular states. National Committeeman John W. Tomlingon, chairman of the committee on club organization, has practiocally completed the organization work of his department here and will leave for Cincinnati to confer with the po- litical leaders of Ohio. After the Cin- cinnati meeting Mr. Tomlinson will proceed to New York, where, the mid- dle of next week, he will confer with Chairman ‘Mack, National Committee- man T. E. Ryan of Wisconsin and oth- ers on the general situation in the Hast. Speaking of his work Mr. Tom- linson said: “With the precinct as the basis of organization we are endeavoring to eptablish Bryan and Kern clubs in gvery community throughout the na- tlon. The machinery for this work has been started in a most satisfac- tory way in the West and Middle West.” John H.. Atwood, chairman of the speaker’s bureau, has arrived here from bis home in Kansas to take up his work. PRESIDENT SENDS THANKS Appreciates Hearty Reception Ten. dered Men of the Fleet. Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 14—Pres- ident Roosevelt has received the fol- lowing cablegram from Admiral Sperry, commander-in-chief of the American Atlantic fleet, now at Auck- land, N. Z, on its way around the world: “The government and people of New Zealand are according the fleet a re- markably enthusiastic and cordial re- ception.

Mills has assessed fines totaling $2,000 against the owners of eight local launches. The fines range from $100 to $500 in amount and are assessed because the launch owners have “been running around the harbor without answering slgnals as required by law.
