TO EDITORS [Continued from Fiist Page.] and with unblushing nerve, which was really refreshing, asserted that he should have been editor of the Pioneer, for which piece of impud- ence we will settle with him later, privately. He stated that the only thing which prevented him from taking advantage of an invitation given in the early days to come to the settlement of Bemidji was the prospeclive seventy-mile hike from Fosston to Bemidji, there being, at that time, no railroads. The walk savored of the old tramp printer and Mr. Scheers didn’t come. The Akeley editor told of being here often and of being greatly pleased with the rapid advancement of this city. He asserted, with much emphasis, that this part .of the state would, in the not distant future, be the leading section of the country; all that was needed was a joint pulling together. Mr. Scheers said that he .was greatly pleased to say a good word for Bemidji at any time and again thanked the people for their generous hospitality. Al H. Jester was called upon as being the real “Jester” and was asked to tell a story. Mr. Jester stated that his mother had always told him when he was out to be very careful of what he said to newspaper men and editors; he noticed several editors present, also some good attorneys and he should govern him- self accordingly. Mr. Jester said there were only fifty good stories and forty-nine of these he did not know: his mother had great trouble with him when he was a youth, breaking him of telling stories. Mr. Jester told a dialect story in which a German’s capacity for beer was the principal subject, which brought him continued applause and he was compelled to answer to the encore. Mr. Jester responded to the insistent demand of the crowd for sale. attention. No. 18. Blackduck river.

This story, is without doubt, one of the very best German dialect yarns in existance today and Mr. Jester tells it in a2 manner that is simply side-splitting and is unequaled by anyone. Toastmaster Russell said that no gathering-of this kind was complete without a benediction and he had intended calling upon Sam Cone but as that gentlemen was not present he would ask A. A. Rahn of Minnea- polis to respond. Mr. Rahn, who is closely identified with the business interests of the Crookston Lumber company, stated that he was never so embarrassed in his life. He had never emulated ex- pounders of the Gospel and was at a loss for words for the benediction. However, Mr. Rahn gave a very good talk on the development of northern Minnesota and its possibili- ties along the line of raising livestock. He thought that industry could be followed in this section with im- mense profits to the farmers of this vicinity. Space forbids an extended repro- duction of Mr. Rahn’s speech but it was full of meat and many practical suggestions. At the conclusion of Mr. Rahn’s talk the banquet was ended. Tocay the committee awarded the prizes and lounged on the lake and this evening went out to the Jester Farm, a full account of which will be given in Monday’s Pioneer. NOTICE TO BOAT CLUB MEM- BERS.

PROPOSAL WELL RECEIVED Pan-American Bank May Be Estab- lished at New York. ‘Washington, July 1\.—The govern- ments of Latin-America and the large business interests of those countries have received the proposition to estab- lish a Pan-American bank in New York, with branches throughout Cen- tral and South America, with great enthusiasm and the favorable re- sponses to the plan have been many. ‘The proposed Pan-American bank is to have a capital of $20,000,000, to $30,- 000,000. Branches are to be estab- lished in Valparaiso, Chile; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Lima, Peru, and Buenos Ayres, Argentine, in charr~ of Americans, while agencies are to be located in Santos, Brazil; Monte- video, Uruguay; La Paz, Bollvia Guayaquil, Ecuador; Bogota, United Btates of Colombia, and Caracas, Ven- ezuela. WILL OPEN NEW TERRITORY Northwestern to Build Several Branch Lines in South Dakota. New York, July 16.—The Chicego and Northwestern Railway company has in contemplation, it is learned, the construction within the next three or four years of several branch lines in South Dakota to open up and de- velop new wheat farming lands. A charter has already been secured for the largest branch line, the James River Valley and Northwestern Rail- ‘way company. This line will be con- structed from Blunt to Gettysburg and from Onelda to Hitchcock, a distance of 180 miles, traversing a farming ter- ritory not greatly developed at pres- ent, but considered to have good pos- sibilities. Another line, charter of which it is expected will be secured shortly, will extend east from Belle Fourche, S. D. TOUCHES $1.29, THEN DROPS Wheat for July Delivery Declines to $1.2305, Chicago, July 16.—Wheat for July delivery made a fresh spurt upward on the hoard of trade when the price touched $1.29, compared with $1.26%, the closing figures of the previous day. The new high record mark for the season was established on initial trades, opening quotations ranging from $1.27% to $1.29. The more dis- tant deliveries, however, were inclined to be weak. The strength of the July delivery, however, was of short duration. \any of the smaller holders began to take profits and as a result there was a gradual decline. Before the selling had been exhausted the price had sunk to $1.2214. At the close of trad- ing the price for July was $1.2315. JOIN MEN NOW ON STRIKE Three Thousand Tin Workers Walk Out at Newcastle, Pa. Pittsburg, July 16.—At the expira- tion of their wage scale at midnight 3,000 workmen, members of the Tin Plate Workers’ Protective association, walked out of the tin plate plants at Newecastle, Pa, and joined the strik- ers of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers. The trouble results from the “open shop” policy declared by the Amer- ican Sheet and Tin Plate company July 1. ¥ ROOSEVELT FO INHERITANGE TAX Nation Should Take Share of Vast Fortunes, GREAT RICHES NOT GOOD Declares That the Multi-Milllonaire Is Not a Healthful Development of the Country, Although We Must Respect His Energy and Ability—If Guilty of Wrongdoing He Is the Worst of Criminals. New York, July 1 i—The Outlook has an article by Theodore Roosevelt entitled “Give Me Nelther Poverty Nor Riches.” It says, in part: “It 1s to be wished that some of those who preach and practice a gos- pel of mere materialism and greed end who speak as if the heaping up of wealth by the community or by the individual was in itself the be-all and end-all of life would learn from e most widely read and oldest of Books that true wisdom which teaches that it 1s well to have neither great poverty nor great riches. “The movement which has become #o strong during the past few years to secure on behalf of the nation both an adequate supervision of and an effective taxation of vast fortunes, so far as their business use is concerned, is a healthy movement. It aims to replace sullen discontent, restless pessimism and evil preparation for revolution by an aggressive, healthy determination to get to the bottom of our troubles and remedy them. “The multi-millionaire is not per se a healthy development in this coun- try. TIf his fortune rests on a basis of wrongdoing he is a far more danger- ous criminal than any of the ordinary types of criminals can possibly be. If his fortune is the result of great serv- ice ‘rendered, well and good; he de- serves respect and reward for such service, although we must remember to pay our homage to the service it- self and not to the fortune, which is the mere reward of the service, but ‘when his fortune is passed on to some one else who has not rendered the service then the nation should impose a heavily graded progressive inherit- ance tax, a singularly wise and unob- Jectionable kind of a tax. It would be a particularly good thing if the tax bore heaviest on absentees.” BRING MESSACE TO CONFEREES Aldrich and Payne Called to the White House. TAFT'S ATTITUDE IS FIRM That the President Insists Upon the Adoption of the Corporation Tax Amendment Is the Substance of a Report by the Senate and House Leaders Following a Conference With the Chief Executive. Washington, July 14—That Presi- dent Taft “stands right whero he has stood all along” and will insist upon the adoption of the corporation tax amendment is the substance of a re- port made to the tariff conference by Senator Aldrich and Representative Payne. The leaders of the senate and house had been at the White House, having been summoned by the presi- dent to explain a persistent rumor that the corporation tax proposition was in danger of being dropped in conference. It had been reported and not denied that a majority of the conferees were opposed to the adoption of the meas- ure providing for a 2 per cent tax upon the net earnings of corporations organized for profit. The announce- ment that the administration would be satisfied with a tax of 1 per cent and that the redraft of the amend- ment made by Attorney General Wickersham would contain this change did not remove the objections entertained by the conference. The representatives of the house protest- ed against the federal government’s entering upon such a “new and rad- ical method of raising revenues.” Discouraging reports about the re- ception planned for the proposition when it should be returned to the conferees determined the president to get at the bottom of the situation and to learn, if he could, whether the ad- verse sentiment was strong enough to encompass the defeat of the amend- ment. LITTLE PROGRESS IS MADE Conferees Consider Cotton Goods and Lead Products. Washington, July ‘11.—Two ques- tlons which it was known would be as stubbornly fought as any in the tarifi bill, namely, cotton goods and lead products, were taken up by the con- ferees, but were not disposed of dur- ing the forenoon session. An early adjournment was taken to permit the house members to attend the ses n of that body and to allow Senator Al- drich and Representative Payne to go to the White House as the president’s guests at luncheon. Members of the house conference committee declined to accept the sen- ate amendments to the cotton sched- ule when that subject was taken up. These amendments consist chicfly of changes from ad valorem to specific duties for the purpose of carrying out the original intent of the Dingley rates, which senate conferees assert have been pulled down by misinter- pretation of the Dingley law. TEHERAN SITUATION SHOWS IMPROVEMENT Rifle Fire Continues, but Artll- lery Is Silent. Teheran, July 1 .—The situation in Teheran shows somo improvement. The artillery fire has practically ceased and it is understood that Colo- nel Liakhoff, the military commander at Teheran, has given his troops or- ders to cease firing. Rifle fire fs still going on between the Bakhtiaris in the service of the shah and the na- tionalists. Prior to the cessation of hostilities the forces of the shah attacked the northeastern gate of the city, but thoy were repulsed by the nationallsts with heavy losses. London, July 1t.—Advices recsived at the foreign office from Teheran con- firm the press reports that the resist- ance of the royalists is practically at an end and the surrender of the Per- sian Cossacks imminent. With the exception of a single case of looting a British house and umim- portant damage to a few houses by rifle fire foreigners in Teheran have .not suffered either in person or prop- erty. Neither the British nor the Rus- sfan diplomatic representative consid- ers that any special measures of pro- tection now are necessary. The Rus- sian troops have not been ordered to advance, but will remain in readiness at Kasvin, some eighty miles away. WANT A TRIP? 3 Personally cor.ducted trips to - Seattle Exposition.
