WITH FRIENDLY PROFESSIONS —_— Cass Lake Is On Record as Bitterly Opposed to the Minnesota Na- tional Forest Reserve. —_— . The very estimable ladies who form the State Federation of Wom- en’s Clubs are said to have allied themselves with the peoble of Cass Lake in the fight which the latter are making to have the proposed sixth state normal school located at Cass Lake—and in so doing the good ladies are allowing themselves to be beautifully “double-crossed,” to use a slangy expression. = In order to work up sentiment favorable to Cass Lake among the ladies of the- federation, the Cass Lake people have of late been de- claring at St. Paul that they are just simply “tickled to death” that they have, surrounding their little village, an uninhabited national forest re- serve; that the bitter fight which they have waged against the perma- nent establishment of the national forest reserve was a joke, and assur- ing the federation ladies that the hearts of the people of Cass Lake beat in a united support of the feder- ation in its work for the permanency of the park. These overtures to the Federation of Women’s Clubs are but subter- fuges, pure and simple; and there ' is not a man, woman or child in Cass Lake who has not bewailed the fact that the town is “bottled up” by a forest reserve which has been des- cribed in resolutions adopted by the comercial club of that village as a “Chinese wall, cutting off the growth and -development of Cass Lake and depriving settlers of thous- ands of acres of agricultural lands which would make good homes for sturdy tillers of the soil.” Anyone who 'is at all acquainted with conditions which have prevailed at Cass Lake knows that a- bitter fighj: has been waged by Cass Lake citizens against the officials of the U. S. forest service, the de- partment of the interior and others interested in establishing the so- called “national forest reserve,” ever since the passage of the meas- are known as the Morris Chippewa law, which allowed the sale of fimber on certain portions of the ceded lands of Chippewa -Indian reservation of Minnesota and paved the way for opening some lands to setilement, but which contained a proviso for a national forest reserve within the lands surrounding Cass Lake, as well as giving to the In- dians “forever” the islands in Cass Lake and ten sections of land around the shores of Pike bay, adjoining Cass Lake. 5 The proviso in the bill which created the forest reserve has been asource of much 'discontent to Cass Lakers, and in the past they have “moved heaven and earth” to break up the reserve, never ceasing their efforts to get portions of the reserved lands opened to settlement. The Minnesota Federation of ‘Women’s Clubs has always advocated this reserve and much adverse - criti- cism has been heaped upon the ladies by the press and people of Cass Lake for their attitude. The present attempt to enlist the services of the club in behalf of locating a sixth state normal school at Cass Lake is simply a flank move- ment in which the women are be- ing' given. the “double-cross, in the most approved fashion. Clearwater Co. District Court. The work on the civil calendar atT the present session of the district court for Clearwater county, which is being held in that village, was completed - yesterday morning and the cases on the criminal calendar were taken up. There were twenty- two cases on the civil list. ; ‘The Clearwarer county authorities are taking vigorous measures to stamp out a few existing crimes of a disgusting character. The grand jury at the present session of court returned eight indictments. There were five criminal cases held over from the last term of the ‘district court and eight new ones, from grand jury indictments, making thirteen criminal cases to. be tried at the present session. Itis thought that the cases now on the list will require about ten days to-be tried. German Lutheran Services.

Not Keep a Proper Course, Had No Sufficient Lookout, Was Proceeding at an Immoderate Speed and Failed to Pay Heed to Warning Whistles of the Republic. New York; Jan. » ).—Counsel for the Oceanic Steam Navigation company, owners of the White Star line steam- er Republic, filed a libel in the United States district court dgainst the steamer Florida of the-Lloyd-Italian line, which ran down .and sank the Republic = off Nantucket lightship. Damages amounting to $1,500,000 for the loss of the ship and $500,000 for the loss of cargo and effects of the Pbassengers and crew were claimed. Tt was asserted in the libel that the collision was due to no fault on: the part of Captain Sealby of the Repub- lic, but wholly to the faults of the Florida, which, it was alleged, did not keep a proper course, had no suf- ficient lookout, did not give proper whistles nor pay heed to the whistles of the “Republic; ~that the Florida failed to indicate her changes of helm: that she was proceeding at an immoderate speed and did not stop or back her engines. The assertion ‘was made that when the officers of the Republic first heard the whistles of the Florida in the fog the Repub- lic’s engines were run full speed astern and that her helm was put aport. Shortly afterward the Florida appeared broad off the Republic’s port side, tearing down at high speed, and her railing hit the Republic at right angle below amidships. “In the efiort to escape the blow,” declared the libel, “the master put the engines of the Republic ahead, but the Florida came on at a high rate of speed, apparently swinging under a starboard helm, and crashed head on into the port side of the Re- public, penetrating into the engine room.” It was also asserted that at the time of the collision the Republie was running at reduced speed, that! the captain, two officers,” a quarter- master and a seaman Were on the bridge, with two lookouts. The court was asked to condemn the Florida and order the payment of $2,000,000 damages to the owners of the Repnblic. DISCUSS CODE OF ETHICS Lumbermen Must Treat GCustomers According to Gslden Rule. Kansas City, Jan. ™.—The “code of ethies,” which “henceforth ‘will bind its ‘members to treat the .consumer according to the golden rule, again occupied the attention of the South- ‘western’ - Lumbermen’s. association. The code also provides the basis ot Settlement of- disputes and claims be- tween the manufacturers of lumber and the retailers. It probably will be accepted by the convention. W. D.

L ELLIS PURGHASES - _ INTEREST IN' PIONEER Will Have Charge of Soliciting Depart- " ment.—Has Had Wide Ex- ~- - perience in Business. — R e The Pioneer is pleased to annoutce that Mr. V. L. Ellis, one.of the most progressive newspaper men and best tall-around printers of this section, has purchased a ‘block of stock . in the Bemidji Pioneer Publishing com- pany, and that he will at once iden- tify himself with the Pioneer com- pany. i Mr. Ellis will have especial charge of the soliciting department of the Pioneer and will “make” all the towns in this-part of the state, look- ing after orders' for. printing and V. L. ELLIS. advertising. He is especially well adapted to this" class of work, and will no doubt prove a very valuable 1 assistant to the present mgnazement. The Pioneer has installed a calen- dar department in connection with our large stationery and supplies, and Mr. Ellis will have charge of this department. He has secured the finest line of exclusive calendar samples yet shownin this part of the ‘northwest, and if the business men of this section have not al- ready ordered their calendars for 1910, they would do well to hold their orders until he arrives on the scene. The Pioneer has recently added a larga line of up-to-date type faces and presses and. engaged the ser- vices of competent pressmen and job compositors. who, under the direction of our skilled formen, can execute the very best printing of any printery in the north half of the state, and which will enable us to surpass any competition in this dine of work. i V. L. Ellis is a veteran in the printing business. He has been en- gaged in the publishing of news- papers ' and soliciting and executing of printing for many years past, during the past ten of which he has been active in the vicinity of Re- midji. During this time. he has successfully conducted a number of publications, and has in all in stances been uniformly successful. In taking Mr. Ellis into the Pio- neer company we have done so with a full realization ss to his worth as a square, conservative business man, rule, “‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” The Pioneer bespeaks for Mr. Ellis the same loyalty that has been shown to others with authority who are connected with the Pioneer; and he will at all times extend the same courtesy and fair treatment that we have endeavored to exhibit in the past. : SAY CRIB WAS A FIRETRAP Witnesses Testify at Coroner’s In- quest at Chicago. Chicago, Jan. f£4.—At the resump- tlon of the inquest on the victims of State’s Attorney Wayman renewed their investigation into the dangerous condition of the erib prior to the fire in which almost seventy lives were lost. The testimony of many wit- | nesses indicated that the crib was a firetrap and. that frequently it had been many- hours.without even the meager protection of the tug which rescued rany of the victims. Work- men testified that the floor of the érib Had become off soaked through careless handling of large oil recep: tacles. The spread of the fire wasrdeclared so rapid that it would have been im- possible to save all the employes on the crib even though the tug had been moored at the crib when the fire broke out.
