SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM “McGARRY IS A GOOD FELLOW.” The people of Cass Lake have every reason to thank P. H. Mec- Garry of Walker for the fact that the legislature has passed the bill designating Cass Lake as the loca- tion for the new sixth state normal school. Itis owing to McGarry’s good fellowship that the bill passed the house last Friday, when the Walker man was able, by strenuous hustling, to get together the neces- sary sixty votes. The question as to whether Cass Lake was the most advantageovs point at which to locate the school did not enter into the consideration of the majority of the sixty affirma- tive votes, for a minute. They all favored the bill because McGarry had acted nicely towards them, and because he had been a “good mixer.” A representative of the Pioneer personally interviewed all but a few of the sixty men who voted with Cass Lake last Friday, and in every instance the same reply was given: “McGarry is such a good fellow; we couldn’t go back on Pat.” Not one to whom we spoke would g0 on record as affiming that Cass Lake was the proper point to locate the school; even McGarry himself has said that Bemidji was a better point, but that he had promised to get the school for Cass Lake if possi- ble; and he did it. As to the respective merits of the towns which have been interested in this contest, Cass Lake was about the weakest in the list, in so far as being deserving of the plum. The sixth state normal school has been located at Cass Lake because of political combinations of differ- ent interests in the enactment of legislation of which P. H. McGarry took advantage and was always on the winning side, and also to the latter gentleman’s good fellowship, which never waned since the legis- lature convened, However, there are a few members of the legislature who cannot look one squarely in the eyes when talk- ing about the Cass Lake vote; their consciences bother them, and their real reasons for voting aye will never be explained if they can help it. MINERS REFUSE TO WORK Pirst Trouble in the Anthracite Region Occurs, Wilkesbarre, Pa., April B—The first troable in the anthracite reglan since the expiration of the three-year agree- ment has developed at the Keystone colliery of the Traders Coal company at the Ridgewood mine, four miles from here. The miners had a dispute over yardage and the shifting of rack and as a result refrained from work- ing. They have enlisted the assist- ance of National Organizer McCiusky and District Board Member McCue in an effort to have their grievance ad- Jjusted. The men say there has been a gradual reduction in the prices paid for the class of work memtioned, but officials of the company maintain that the same rates prevail as have been in force for a number of years.

Washington, April 6. — Protests against proposed tariff legislation have been received by the state department from a number of governments in re- lation to schedules that are reported as involving special hardships towards manufacturers abroad. To all of these protests the department has re- plied that it could only forward them to the committees of the senate and house of representatives which have special jurisdiction over the tarfff. This has been done in each case. Boy Burned to Death. ‘Washington, April 5—As a result of playing with matches, Stephen Keefe, three-year-old son of Joseph Keefe, was burned to death here. Mrs. Ma- mie Keefe, his mother, was badly burned in an effort to save his life. She will recover. MILLIONS OF LIVES. LOST The Awful Toll Collected by Con- sumption. If people could only understand that catarrah is an internal scrofula —that nothing applied externally does much good—they would not need tobe warned so often about their fatal disease, which, when ne- glected, invariebly ends up in con- sumption, at the cost of millions of lives every year. Yet catarrah is easily cured if the right treatment 1s employed. Catarrh is caused by germs in blood" which circulate throughout the entire system. External reme- dies gives but temporary ease. Although the effects are often seen in the form of pimples, rash, eczema or dry scaly skin, the trouble is internal - and never can be. cured by external remedies. The only way to cure catarrh is by employing a medicine which is absorbed and carried by the blood to all parts of the system, so that the mucous membrane or internal lining of the body is thoroughly medicated, soothed, disinfected = of germ matter, and the soreness healed. ] We have a remedy prepared from the prescription of a physician who for thirty years studied and made catarth a specialty and whose record of success was a cure in every case where his treatment was followed as prescribed. -~ That remedy is Rexall Mucu-Tone. We are so positive that it will cure catarrh in all its various forms, whether acute or chronic, that we promise to return every penny paid us for the medicine in every case where it fails to cure or for any reason does not satisfy the user. We want you to try Rexall Mucu- Tone on our recommendation and guarantee. We are right here where you live, and you do not contract any obligation or risk when you try Rexall Mucu-Tone on our guarantee. We have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two sizes. The prices are 50c and $1. Very often the 50c size effects a cure. Of course in chronic cases a longer treatment is necessary. The average in such instances is three $1.00 bottles. ~ Barker’s Drug tore. RIOTOUS SCENE IN LEGISLATURE Members of Missouri House Come to Blows. PROHIBITION THE ISSUE Democrats Attempt to Leave Ghamber, -but Republicans and Outsiders Block the Way—Action on State wide Amendment Postponed Until After St. Louis City Election, When Measure Is Expected to Pass. Jefferson City, Mo., April 5.—The proposed constitutional amendment establishing statewide prohibition has been made a speclal order for April 8 by the house of represcntntives of the Missouri legislature. The committee on constitutional amendments reported the measure Wwithout recommendation. The Demo- crats tried to force its immediate con- sideration, but by a strict party vote the Republicans defeated the effort— 57 to 50. This was in keeping with the action of the Republican caucus, Which is believed to have been based on a desire to keep the amendment in the background until after the city election in St. Louis next week. It is claimed that the measure will receive 77 votes in the house and 22 in the senate and thus pass both branches of the general assembly. There was a small sized riot in the house before the final vote was taken. The Democrats complained that no op- portunity had been given to present a minority report on the proposed amendment and left their seats. Immediately there was a rush for the door, the Republicans seeking to block the exits. U. G. Crandall, Re- publican, and H. L. Johnson, Demo- crat, came to blows, but were sep- arated before any damage had been done. Most of the Democrats left the hall, but later returned. J. T. Barker, leader of the minority, charged that much of the trouble had been caused by the presence of nonmembers, who had been brought in to prevent the exodus of the Democrats. STATE SENATORS TESTIFY Took Part in Fight for United States Senatorship. Madison, Wis.,, April }.—Senator George B. Hudnall of Superior was a witness before the senatorial investi- gation committee. . He said_he was relmbursed tor an pe $551.64 by W. H. Hatton, in-whose be- half he enlisted. He took no part in the campaign for candidates for the assembly, he: said. Mr.. Hudnall said he received a letter from Senator Ste- phenson asking his support, but re- fused. 5 Senator Krumrey spent a week or ten days in the Hatton cause in She- boygan county, spending a little over $90. He denied the statement of W. L. Essman that he had “switched from McGovern to Hatton very suddenly.” State Game Warden Stone re- turned to the stand and read a list of wardens and others and amounts paid to them. Questioning by Chairman Marsh brought out a statement from the wit- ness that deputy wardens had collect- ed in all $1,200 for Governor David- son’s campaign fund and that he paid it to the governor in three install- ments, $500 twice-and $200; that when the first payment was made to Gov- ernor Davidson in currency he laid the envelope on the table and when asked by the governor what it was answered: “Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies.” The governor, said Stone, “obeyed instructions.” LAST RAIL OF ST. PAUL EXTENSION LAID Completion of Sixth Transoen- tinental Rallroad, Chioago, April 2—It is announced from the offices of the Chicago, Mil- waukee and St. Paul railroad in this city that without any ceremonies the lest rail on the Pacific coast exten- sfon of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railway, now known as the Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget Sound railway, had been laid at a point two miles east of Missoula, Mont. There was no celebration of any kind and the completion of the sixth transcon- tinental railroad was simply a part of the day’s work. The length of the extemsion just completed from the Missouri river to Seattle and -Tacoma is a trifie over 1,400 miles. The completion of the new transcontinental line creates a world’s record for rapidity of railway construction. The first shovelful of earth on the new line was turned April 15, 1906. Since then 60,000,000 cublc yards of material has been ex- ogvated, 360,000 yards of tunnel dpiven, twenty miles of bridges erect ed and 200,000 tons of 85-pound rails laid at a total cost of $85,000,000. The ballasting of the new transcon- tinental line will be completed about June 1, 1909, and regular freight and local passenger service will be estal lished thereafter. Rheumatism More than nine out of every ten cases of rheumatism are simply rheumatism of the muscles, due to cold or damp, or chronic rheumatism. In such cases no internal treat- ment is required. The free application of Chamberlain’s Liniment is all that is needed and it is cer- tain to give quick relief. Give'it a trial and see for yourself how quickly it relieves the pam .and soreness. .

Mexico City, April 5.—General Gus- tave A, Maas, who has a record in the Mexican army as an Indian fighter, has been sentenced to death for kill- ing former Lieutenant David Olivarez, whose sister it was charged he ha? wronged. The trial and sentenge General Maas created a sensation, as the prosecution brought out thet he had once before kidnapped a girl at Tacubayo. The verdict was a remarkable one, Not only was the general sentenced to be shot to death, but his estate also must pay $60 a month to each of the two children of the man he murdered for the next twenty years and pay the funeral expenses of his victim. These sums will come out of General Maas’ estate. General Maas is wealthy and has been prominent socially.
