THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER -~ PUBLISHND EVERY AFTHRNOOR, BEMIDII PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. C. J. PRYOR. G, B. CARSON. ©ntered in the. bostoffice at Bemidii. Minn., second clags matter. SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER ANNUM “NO LIAR SHALL ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.” Somewhere, between the covers of that inspired book, The Holy Bible, there is a statement to the effect that ¢‘no liar shall enter the kingom of heaven:” and while the writer hereof is loath to quote glibly from a book,” the profound wisdom of which he has always acknowledged, and while he may be accused of being presumptuous or sacriligous in doing so, we cannot refrain from calling the attention of the lessee of our very worthy contemporary to the fact that there is no hope in the here. after for a malicious prevaricator. It is very evident that since the Pjoneer has taken to showing up some ot thelies and insinuations published in the Sentinel of late, that the conscience(or what is left of that most desirable portion of manhood with which the Creator originally endows us poor mortals) of the more recent *‘mariner,” who guides thedestinies of the Sentinel, has been worrying him o’nights, and he wailslike a whipped cur and refers to the ¢gentle Nazar- ine,” and other highly religious phrsaes and quotes ‘4judge not, lest ye be judged.” He winds up his harrangue, in the last issue, with ¢remember that charity covers a multitude of shortcomings.” All of these attempts to ‘throw dust” in the people’s eyes, and the meek and lowly attitude of the ‘‘essee,” does not deter him from quoting a portion of the report of the deputy public examiner and trying to make it appear that the Pioneer has robbed the people through its official publication of the delinquent tax list for the current year. On the first page of this issue of the Pioneer is given an article taken from the Sentinel, with the comments made thereon by Deputy Public Examiner Kain, the gentle- man who made the report referred to, In Mr. Kain’s statement the Pio- neer is exonerated in every sense from having done anything unlaw- ful orin any way having trans- gressed in the least. In conclusion, the writer would simply refer the lessee of the Sentinel to the last article in the first column of the editorial page of the last issue of the Sentinel, “‘judge not, lest ye be judged.” The public is left to judge of the sinister motives which prompt the Sentinel men. SAID TO HAVE WIVES IN EVERY LARGE CITY John Madson in Hands of San Francisco Police, — Ban Francisco, July 10.—John Mad- #on, wanted for bigamy in nearly every large city in America and many of the smaller ones, is in the hands of the police here. The authoritles have established his marriage to ten wo- men and his engagement and possible marriage to fourteen others. Each of the twenty-four women duped by Mad- son Is said by the police to have lost more or less money through him. The largest amount was from Mrs. Eliza- beth N. E. Jackson of Iola, Kan., from whom he is said to have obtained $1,400. Madson is said to have deserted the women within a few hours after mar- riage. The strange history of Madson, who Is an aged man, extends over only a few months. Almost without excep- tion his victims have been widows or divorced women of middle age. Mad- son may be taken for trial to Stock- ton, where one of his wives resides. Meantime the police here are trying to secure a complete confession from him. HAD AN AVERSION TO AUTOS Retired Army Officer Run Down and. Killed by Machine. ‘Washington, July 10.—Major J. W. Long, U. S. A, retired, was run down here by an automobile and died three hours later at the Emergency hos- pital. The auto was driven by J. W. Lawrence, who was learning to -op- erate the machine. Major Long had an aversion to auto- mobiles and a few days ago declared: “If T had my way I would smash and burn every auto in the District of Columbia.” Major Long was formerly superin- tendent of the Michigan state Sol- diers’ home. DECLARE THEIR INDEPENDENGE Progressive Republicans Re- sent Aldrich Censure. NELSON'S REPLY SPIRITED Minnesota Senator Asserts That After the Little State of Rhode Island Has Disappeared From the Map the North Star 8tate Will Be Casting Her Five Million Republican Votes. ‘Washington, July 10.—The final vote in the senate, passing the tariff bill by a vote of 45 to 34, was announced after a protracted debate which was almost devoid of animation until with- in a few minutes before the close when there. arose a sharp controversy over the party standing of the insur- gent Republican senators. Several of them hotly resented being “read out of the party” by Senator Aldrich. He, however, disclaimed any such inten- tion. The discussion throughout the final hours had been chiefly by Senators La Follette and Gore, both of whom criticised the bill, but neither of whom aroused much enthusiasm in the thor- oughly wearied senate. When it ap- peared that a vote could be taken Mr, SENATOR KNUTE NELSON. Beveridge announced the determina- tlon of the so called progressive Re- publicans to cast their votes against the bill. The announcement ealled forth a sharp rejoinder from Chairman Al drich of the finance committee, in which he undertook to remind the in- dependent senators that, being in the minority, they were without authority to speak for the Republican party. Senators Crawford, Clapp and Nel- son responded with spirit, contending for their right to vote in accordance with the dictates of their own judg- ment and consclence. All declared with vehemence their independence of the Rhode Island senator and Mr. Nelson asserted that “after the little state of Rhode Island has disappeared from the map Minnesota will be cast- ing her §,000,000 Republican votes.” Neither Rhode Island nor Rhode Isl- and’s senator could, he said, tell Min- nesota and her senators what they should do. Benators Aldrich, Cullom, Hale, Bur- rows and Penrose, Republicans, and Daniel. Money and Bailey, Democrats, were appointed conferees on behalf of the senate. VERY BADLY DISFIGURED Tariff Bill Reappears in House After Long Absence. ‘Washington, July 10.—Bearing the scars. of 847 amendments, placed there by the senate, the Payne tariff bill found its way back to the house exactly three months to a day from the time it was put through by that body. Chairman Payne of the ways and means committee was prepared to again take charge of the momentous plece of legislation and as soon as the bill appeared the house, on his mo- tion, took a recess for an hour. in or- der to permit the committee on rules to meet with a view to deciding on a course of procedure in reference to the tariff bill to be recommended to the house. The committee on rules later brought in an order providing for the reference of the bill to a committee on conference as requested by the senate, the house meantime disagree- ing to the senate amendments. During debate on the order Repre- sentative Mann of Illinois declared he would vote against the bill on the conference report if the senate pro- vision on wood pulp and print paper was retained. He was applauded on both sides. Representative Townsend of Michigan declared that in the sen- ate debate on the tariff bill the house had been openly insulted, The rule was adopted, 179 to 153, and the following conferees were named: Payne (N. Y.), Dalzell (Pa.), McCall (Mass.), Boutell (J11.), Calder- head (Kan.), Fordney (Mich.), Clark (Miss.), Underwood (Ala.) and Griggs (Ga)). - CATHOLICS BUY A SCHOOL Bishop O'Gorman Secures Abandoned Indian Building. ‘Washington, July 10.—Bishop O’Gor- man of the Catholic church is the highest bidder for the Chamberlain Indian school, South Dakota, the sale of which was authorized in the last Indian appropriation. bill. His bid was $30,100. The other bidder was the Seventh Day Adventists, who of- fered $26,100. Congress provided that the property should not be sold for less than §28,000. FOOD GOCD ENOUGH FOR ALL Institution Officers Must Share Diet of Inmates. Topeka, Kan, July 10.—Governor ‘W. R. Stubbs believes that the officers and employes of the various state in- stitutions should eat the same food they set out for the inmates. “If the grub is not good enough for the officers and employes,” he said, “it is not good enough for growing chil- dren and invalids in the institutions. If the officers cannot live on food the state furnishes its wards they should buy-.their own provisions.” THREW AGID IN FACE OF PRETTY IRISH GIRL Lexington, Ky., Woman Jealous of Other's Rosy Cheeks, Kansas Lexington, Ky., July 10.—Mrs. Kate Phipps was arrested here charged with disfiguring pretty Mary Ryan, the young Irish girl who was mys- teriously attacked in a stable at noon last Tuesday and was burned in the face with acid. Miss Ryan’s identifica- tion of Mrs. Phipps was quite dra- matie. Mrs. Phipps is a neighbor of Miss Ryan’s and during the latter's de- lirium has been a steady caller to inquire about the girl’s condition. Miss Ryan was in her right senses when Mrs. Phipps made her last call. On sight of Mrs. Phipps Miss Ryan screamed and was so frightened that five persons were necessary to hold the girl in bed. Miss Ryan says Mrs. Phipps told her as she attacked her: “If I can’t have rosy cheeks you can't. Evervbody likes you; nobody Hkes me,” and then_threw carbolic acid in her face and cut her with a knife on the face and hands. Detectives are searching the Phipps home for evidence.

GUARDS WATCH PROPERTY Receiver Named by -State Court In- structed to Ignore Orders of United States Court—Four Armed Deputies on Duty With Instructions to Resist With Force Any Attempt to Take Possession, Savannah, Ga., July 10.—A clash be- tween the state and the federal courts here reached the armed deputy stage when Judge Walter G. Charlton of the state court ordered the recelver for the Electric Supply company to ignore the orders of Federal Judge Speer to turn the property over to the United States marshal. Receiver W. A. Davis put four armed guards over the property with orders to resist with deadly weapons any attempt of the United States marshals to take pos- session. President J. S. Walker of the Flec- tric BUDply company died a f6w weeks ago and the affairs of the company ‘were found to be much involved. The liabilitles were about $83,000 and creditors representing $80,000 applied to the state court for a receiver. ‘W. V. Davis was named by Judge Charlton. - Later the other creditors, representing $3,000, filed a petition in involuntary bankruptcy in the federal court and on July 6 Federal Judge Speer named United States Marshal George F. White receiver and issued &n order restraining Davis from act- Ing as receiver and ordering Davis to turn the assets over to Marshal White. Davis appealed to Judge Charlton, who ordered. him to disregard any orders from the federal court. OUTCOME OF LABOR TROUBLE Explogion at Detroit Causes Consid- erable Damage. Detroit, July 10.—As an outcome, the police think, of labor trouble a suit case containing guncotton was exploded under a pile of steel girders in the yard of the Whitehead & Kale's plant on Beeker avenue. The explo- slon wrecked windows for half a mile around and caused considerable dam- age to nearby factorles, espeeially the plant of the Seitz Auto and Transmis- sfon company, where all of the win- dows were smashed and some of the machinery. was thrown out of balance. The girders were for use in an ex- tension to the postoffice, which s be ing constructed by Whitehead & Kale.
