Every encouragement should be given the ladies of the Bemidji Improvement League in their efforts to make Bemidji indeed “Beautiful” as a municipality; and all ladies of the city who can possibly leave their homes for an hour tomorrow afternoon should attend the mass meeting to be held at the City Opera House. The presence of the gentlemen is also " desired, as there will be many suggestions advanced for the general good of all. There should be a rousing meeting and a general co-operation with the officers and members of the League. A “BUSY B” MOTTO FOR BEMIDJI James C. Thompson, the new mayor of Rochester, in his remarks npon taking upon himself the duties of the office Monday evening, closed with this thoughtful and vigorous ex- pression which is too good for Rochester to have any copyright on: “Some one has given as Rochester’s motto, ‘Build, Boom, Boost’. ~I earnestly hope that we may during the coming year, Build wisely, Boom honestly. and Boost reservedly.’ ” As an alliterative motto of many B’s (which are indicative of being “busy”) the Pioneer would suggest as a motto for Bemidji that would most certainly not soon be forgotten “Build, Boom, Boost Big Bemidji.” The result would be beneficial, in every sense. CAUSTIC COMMENT. [A. G, Rutledge.] A crank isn’t a crank when he does you a2 good turn. Ragtime, Alonzo, isn’t necessarily the time to chew the rag. One way to keep from hoarding your money is to be a “good fellow.” A woman looks upon her husband as either a convenience or necessary evil. It’s the brand of trouble that a man makes for himself that keeps him awake nights. By placing a speaking likeness of a woman in a locket it can be shut up. (No apologies.) When a man begins to shout about his good deeds it is up to you to look in the cellar for his evil ones. It keeps some men so all-fired busy being important that they haven’t time to.“‘make good” in this busy old world. The “man with the hoe” and also the rake will be welcomed at the Improvement League meeting to morrow afternoon. Hubby, get on your overalls and get busy. SEND ULTIMATUM 70 LAKE CARRIERS Employes Declare Owners Must Recede From Position. ' Buffalo, April 16.—The trouble be- tween the big freight lines of the Lake Carriers’ assoclation and the marine unions has come to an issue with an ultimatum which the unions have sent to the president of the association. There will be a strike of engineers, firemen and seamen if the Lake Car- riers do not recede from their stand. They must eliminate the open shop olause from contracts and give up the welfare plan. There is much talk of making this & fight'to a finish. Only a backdown by the Lake Carriers now can prevent 8 strike of 15,000 marine workers on the lakes from becoming effective at once. The marine Jeaders have fssued.or- 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 pain and soreness. Price 25c; large size, 50c. For Sale a Barker’s Drug Store ders for all union men to stay oft the boats. The strike order involves engineers, firemen, oilers, wheelmen, watchmen, deckhands, stewards, cooks and por- ters. Mystery Surrounds Death. Chicago, April 16.—Frank Yerkes, a milk dealer, was found shot to death under mysterious circumstances in the home of Mrs. Rose Shuman. While the police are inclined to the belief that Yerkes firad a bullet into his head with suicidal intent ecircum- stances connected with. the case prompted them to place Mrs. Shuman and Miss Ethel Blackwell, who was visiting at the Shuman home, under arrest pending the outcome of the coroner’s inquest.

H. Johnson’s name. Amend- nents were added which make the to- tal number of representatives 134. The bill provides 129, and the four which had been cut out of the south- ern counties were restored, and one added to one of the St. Louis county districts. Although the ma)unty of the fifteen new members come from the north of the Twin Cities, the northern mem- bers are far from being satisfied with the bill. They say it is a scheme by the southern members to stave off any real reapportionment. The bill - is really not a reapportionment, as the senatorial districts are not touched. The northern solons say that when- ever they cry again for reapportion- ment the southern part will try the same scheme and add new members. Some of the members benefitted, also several who are not affected by the bill, said that, while the bill is not much good, it is better than nothing, and helps the evil just a little bit. S. B. Duea of Pipestone made a futile effort to kill the billL Hunters Must Have Licensss. The house passed the bill which compels every hunter to have a license, except the man who shoots on his own farmm. If the senate passes the bill, no farmer can walk with a gun ten steps into his neizhbor’s pas- ture without giving the fish commis- slon a dollar.

The exit of the cigarette in the state'ls set for Aug. 1. After that date any one caught selling or disposing of cigarettes is likely to fall into the hands of the law. Pure Cream Bill Passed. The earnestness of Senator James Johnston carried the day for pure cream and the senate by 41 to 12 passed the bill relating to the carry- ing of cream to cities. The bill compels all cream to be shipped in refrigerator cars if it is to be carried’ more than- thirty miles. The bill was-introduced several days 8go and rushed through, being opposed by the centralized creameries. John- ston appealed for the senate to take as good care of the city people as the farmers do of their calves. The milk for pigs Is now pasteurized and the cream may also be pasteurized if iced cars are not at hand. C. J. Gunderson of Alexandria spoke vigorously against the bill. Senator ‘Wilson asked to be excused’from vot- ng, as the farmer members were not ited on the bill and he wanted to vote for the farmer, first, last and all the time. Friends of the iron ore tonnage tax bill won a decided victory in the sen- ate when they forced the considera- tion of the Bjorge bill Friday at 3 o’clock: The placing of this on its final passage several days before it was expected it would be reached, was accomplished by some of the clever- est parliamentary practice seen this session. The bill which distributes-the $300,- 000 a year appropriated for roads and bridges in a previous bill passed the house. The senate passed the house bill creating a commission to investigate the question of liability of employers for injuries to workmen. QUIET IN MARINE CIRCLES Very Few Lake Vessels Preparing for Season’s Work. Milwaukee, April “16.—Everything is very quiet in marine circles in this city. Out of ninety vessels which quartered here during the winter not over half a dozen have begun the fit- ting out preparations. Two grain vessels have loaded car- goes for Lake Erie ports, but have not started out because, it is said, an agreement as to engineers and fire- men has not yet been effected. A well known vesselman says it lcoks as though real activities will not begin from this port before June. advise you wisel 70 Years with Coughs and Colds We have had seventy yeass of experience with Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral.
