A. B. HAZEN, Candidate for the Republican Nomination for Sheriff. —_— A. B. Hazen of this city yesterday filed for republican nomination for sheriff of Beltrami county at the primaries to be held September 15. This action on the part of Mr. Hazen was not unexpected, as he has been declaring his candidacy for several months. There is probably no man in Beltrami county who is better known or who has a larger acquaintance than A. B. Hazen. He is one of the pioneer residents of Bemidji, and has always been prominent in every move calculated to advance the best interests of this city and Beltrami county. From now on, Mr. Hazen will be an active candidate, and he will make a whirlwind canvass. The Da.ily Pioneer 40c per Month MORAL STATUS OF THIS Judging from the Number of Inmates element of Beltrami COMMUNITY IMPROVING at Present Occupying County Jail. The moral status of the criminal county is the highest that it has been in several months, as evinced by the number of prisoners in the county jail. There are now thirteen prisoners confined to the local county bastile, two are from Koochiching county, two are city prisoners, and the remaining nine are from Beltrami county. One of the koochlchmz men is serving out a sentence and the other was bound over until the October term of the district court at Interna- tional Falls. The two Bemidji men are serving sentences. Of the nine Beltrami county men, three are awaiting hearings, three are doing time, two are bound over to the September term of the district court in this city, and one is being held over from the March term of court. This record is considerably better than at the same time last year, when there were twenty-six prisoners —three United States court prison- ers, five Koochiching county men, one from Clearwater county, four from the City of Bemidji and thir- teen from Beltrami county. A New Order. A new order has been organized in Bemidji and the charter has been applied for. However, no mere men are at the head of the movement. They are young men; the oldest has scarcely attained the age of fifteen years. The new organization will be but one of hundreds of camps of the King David society, which are now scattered throughout the country. ;| meeting will be held as soon as word Chss 9 at the Methodist Epfi&opnl Sutiday School, taught by M¥s. M. B. Cunningham and the first meeting took place at the home of Berton Buckle, one of the members of the class, on Bemidji avenue, Tuesday evening. The officers were elected and the organization affected. The object of the order is to promote "comrade- ship among the boys and up-lift them along the lines of proper con- duct and living. Al are enthusiatic over the project and have promised tobring more boys “into camp.” The charter is still open for those who wish to join before that docu- ment is closed and formerl; accept- ed by the local camp. Another is received from the Grand Camp of the order. Funkley Is Handsome. Henry Funkley, when seen by the Pioneer reporter at his office this and meloncholy mood. He seemed to be pondering as to how to solve some perplexing proposition. When aroused by the reporter, Mr. Funkley made the following state- ment. “Yes, I was thinking about polmcs and I wish I was.homely instead of good looking. I simply can not keep my picture cards posted, be- cause the young ladies take them down as fast as I put them up and hide them in the bottom of their trunks.” morning, was in a very depressed | - Case Continued.

In making your plans for the next month you can hardly afford to overlook the fact that the Minnesota state fair, the greatest show of its kind on the continent. will take place at Hamline Aug 31 to Sept. 5, and that it will be bigger and better than ever before. 2 There is no need of exaggeration in describing the Minnesota state fair. It is a credit to the North Star state that it should have the best state fair in the country, and this fact is generally conceded. But one other agricultural fair in America even approaches it, and that is the Toronto show, which it is necessary to assign to second place. *The fair is truly representative of | the whole state, of all its people, of! fall its ‘indusn'ies and of all its resources.” It hasalways been that, but this year, ynder the initiative of . N. Cosgrove and his assistasts, it will be a bigger and more entertain- ing exhibit than it has ever been before. Because this is the semi- centexnial of statehood special effort has been made, and the result is certain to be a truly marvelous exposition of Minnesota’s vast wealth and progress. The state fair has always had the liberal support of the people of Minnesota, and this will furnish no exception to the rule. It deserves popular support, but state pride alone would not provide 1t; its sup- port comes because it is worth patronizing, and because it is not only instructive but vastly enter- taining. Spiritualistic Circles. There will be spiritualistic circles at the residence of J. Peterson, Jr., this evening, Thursday and Friday evening. They are open for all earnest investigators, and the small collection of 25¢ will be made to help cover the expenses of bringing the medium here. All circles will commence at 8 o’clock sharp—be prompt. CONFERENGE AT THE PRESIDENT'S HOME New York Governdrship Subject of Consideration, Oyster Bay, N. Y., Aug. 21.—Repub- lican national politics are being subor- dinated to consideration of the New York governorship at one of the most important conferences that has been held at Sagamore Hill this season. The first visit which James S. Sher- man, the Republican candidate for vice president, has made to President Roosevelt since the convention was the occasion for a gathering of a num- ber of other figures prominent in Re- publican circles. Among these were Chairman Frank H. Hitchcock of the Republican national committee, Rep- resentative William S. Bennet, W. W, Cocks, William J. Youngs, United States district attorney fof the East- ern New York district; George J. Smith, formerly a member of con- gress and recently appointed treas- urer of the state committee; Robert Bacon, assistant secretary of state, apd Michael J. Dady of Brooklyn. Captain Cameron McR. Winslow, com- mander of the battleship New Hamp- shire, also was at Sagamore Hill. Chairman Hitchcock has listened to party leaders and prominent Repub- licans of the state whether they are for or against the renomination of Governor Hughes. The indications are that some conclusion has been reached in the mind of Mr. Hitchcock. The preponderance of the evidence which he will submit to the president is thought to be in favor of the reten- tlon of Governor Hughes at the head of Republican affairs in this state. RUSSIA WARNS THE SHAH Wave of Reaction Threatens to Break Out in Persia. Teheran, Persia, Aug. 21.—The Rus- slan influence in the Persian capital is being exerted quietly but firmly against the wave of reaction which threatens to follow the dissolution of parliament. M. Hartwig, the Russian minister, who has made it a practice to abstain from intervention in the internal affairs of Persia, had an audience with-the shah and advised him as a friend to put a check on the fanatic mullah, Shefk Fazlulla, who has been delivering re- aotionary addresses to gatherings of the lower classes in Dzhami mosque. The shelk appeals to the passions and endeavors to incite to excesses which might result dangerously to Buropeans. One of his arguments is that the con- stitution conflicts with the religion of- the land. He has urged also that there be a general strike on the day of the next elections. The shah at once forbade Fazlulla to continue his speeches under pain of the most severe punishment. MOROCCO CITY FALLS. Abdel Aziz’ Troops Defeat Forces of Mulai Hafid. Paris, Aug. 21.—The French war office is in receipt of a telegram from General d’Amade, commander of the French troops in Moroceo, that Moroc- co City has surrendered to Abdel Aziz, the sultan of record.
