RACE PROGRAM PREPARED FOR THE FAIR THIS WEEK Races Will Be He'd Thursday and Friday.—Exciting Five- Mile Automobile Contest, Each Day, and Pacing and Running Races | Secretary Mackenzie has com- pleted the list of races which will be run on Wednesday and Thursday of this week, the second and third days of the Fourth Annual Fair of the Beltrami County Agricultural association. The races include automobile con- tests, as well as trotting and pacing races, and running races, with lady riders in some of the running races. On Thursday afternoon there will be a five-mile automobile race. A purse will be given to the leading automobilist at the end of each mile of this race, and it is expected that there will be some pretty lively driving for the leadership each time the autos passthe judges’ stand at the completion of a mile. There are some twelve auto- mobiles in the city, and as this race is a free-for-all contest, it is expected that nearly all of the local autoists will participate, as well as the one on Friday. There will be a free-for-all trotting or pacing race, which looks like an interesting contest. Already there are entered in this race Prince Hal, the speedy pacer owned by William Begsley; Ida G. and Lulu Blackford, owned by Ole Anderson, with the probability that Beminji Belle, owned by W. T. Blakeley of Farley, will be entered. This race will be mile heats, best two out of three. The day’s events will close with a pony race, open to all ponies under fourteen hands high. On Friday there will be another five-mile automobile race with prizes for each mile. A feature of Friday’s race pra- gram will be an attempt by Prince Hal to beat the harness track record, which is 2:13%{, The first record of the track under 2:20 was made py Little Jim, driven by Bob Cherry, in the first heat of a free-for-all race on September 29, 1907, the time being 2:15%. On June 21, 1908, Bob Cherry again lowered the record of the track with Little Jim, placing the figures at 2:13%. Prince Hal, in his attempt to lower the track record, next Friday, will be paced by two running horses, each taking him half a mile. It is believed that Prince Hal will come pretty close to the mark, as he is in splendid condition, A unique race will be between Shetland ponies ridden by little girls under 12 years of age. This race will be a single half-mile dash. The races will conclude with a pony race, ponies not to exceed fourteen hands in height. With a balloon ascension each day of the fair, and a football game on Friday forenoon between Bemidji and Cass Lake or Bagley, there will be lots of sport at the fair, as well as exhibits of unusual character.

E. Pierce & Co.’s great play of western ranch life, will be the attraction at the City Opera House soon. The selection of this drama of the West will meet with wide approval in Bemidji and the production itself promises to be one of the most pretentious that will be seen here during the present season. “In Wyoming” is a genuine American play, replete with virility and strength. Willard Mack, the author, has skillfully combined his ingredients of dramatic interest with the proper admixture of comedy, and has succeeded in evolving a rare nlay‘ wherein swiftly alternating laughs give place {requently to moments of intense pathos. The scenes are held near Casper, Wyo- ming. The management has furni- shed a complete scenic production, which will be used in its entirety during the engagement.

PEARY REPEATS HIS ACCUSATION Says Cook Is Handing the Public a Gold Brick, ASSERTS HE CAN PROVE IT Declares the Brooklyn Explorer Did Not Reach the North Pole on April 21, 1908, or at Any Other Time—Dis- Patch Adds Fuel to the Already Fierce Fire of Charge and Counter Charge. New York, Sept. 18.—The Cook- Peary controversy over the discovery of the North pole continues to rage Wwith unabated tury. For the time be- ing the great achievement itself is somewhat obscured if not lost in the intensity of feeling which has been aroused over the personal aspect of the two conflicting. claims. Comman- der Peary’s latest dispatch, challeng- ing Cook’s claim and characterizing it as “a gold brick,” has added fuel to the already flerce fire of charge and oounter charge. This dispatch is ad- dressed to the New York Herald and reads as follows: * “Do not imagine the Herald is like ly to be imposed upon by Cook story, but. for your information Cook has simply handed the public a gold brick. He had not been at the pole on April 21, 1908, or any other time. The above statement is made advisedly and at the proper time will be backed by proof.” In a dispatch to the New York Times Peary declares that as soon as Cook makes his claims as a discoverer of the pole before a reputable geo- graphical or scientific society he (Peary) will be in “position to furnish material that may prove distinctly in- teresting reading for the public.” Each explorer has his camp of loyal champions and defenders, centering in the various polar organizations with which they have been identified but ramifying throughout sclentific and public circles generally. In these divided camps plans are being hastily formed on 2 prodigious scale for the welcome to be accorded to the two claimants for polar honors and as present plans indicate that both ex- plorers will arrive about the same time the demonstrations greeting them promise to bring to a climax the present intense feelings of approval and disapproval. Peary's Charge Very Plain. Peary’s latest challenge to Cook’s olaim is viewed with varying shades of emotion by the supporters of the two men. It is accepted by both sides as a direct charge of the untruthful- ness of ‘Cook’s narrative. It is noted also that Peary ilow adds that he has proofs of his statement contradicting Cook. It is also noted that his inten- tion to present this proof is when he (Cook) makes a full statement of his Journey over his signature. Peary also requires that this written state- ment from Cook shall be made “to some geographical soclety or other reputable body” in this connection. Copenhagen dispatches have already stated that Cook was ready to submit his claim to the coast and geodetic survey at Washington or other scien- tific body if Peary would do the same thing. The use of the contemptuous phrase, “a gold brick,” in referring to Cook’s -claim is looked upon by the champions of Dr. Cook as particularly offemsive. They regard it as not only & challenge of his veracity, but as one of such serious import in reflect- ing upon Cook’s methods that it calls for immediate substantiation from Peary. Whether Peary will give this substantiation at once is open to doubt, in view of his statement. that the proof would be presented when Cook made a signed full statement to some geographical society or other reputable body. Commander Peary has now taken action as a naval officer as well as an explorer by reporting officially to the president, to the navy department and to the coast and geodetic survey at ‘Washington that he reached the North pole April 6, 1909. £ STILL AT BATTLE HARBOR Oommander Peary and Companions in Excellent Health. Battle Harbor, Labrador, Sept. 13.— The steamer Roosevelt, with Comman- der Peary on board, is still at Battle Harbor. The commander and all the members of the crew are in excellent health and the steamer is in good con- dition. Preparations are being made for the departure for North Sydney, C. B. Members of the expedition say that the pole is In appearance like other parts of the Arctic sea and that an at- tempt to get a sounding was without success. The party sledged 411 miles each way to the pole. The conditions for traveling over the ice were absolutely without equal. The Roosevelt spent the winter months in §2.30. Commander Peary and the mem- bers of his expedition are enthusias- tic over their success. They say, how- ever, that they are not sorry to come south agaln. Several dogs are also aboard the Roosevelt. ‘Some of them Commander Peary says were with him when he reached the North pole. Commandor Peary says that the only satisfactory way of accomplishing polar work s by the aid of Eskimos and dogs. An attempt was made to bring five musk ox and a walrus back alive, but the animals were so ugly that they had to be killed. The Roosevelt is in excellent condl- tion. There is not a leak and the propeller and rudder are in good shape. The bollers and engine also are In good condition and the steamer can easily make a speed of seven knots an hour. The only damage was done by the rubbing of paint off the | sides by contact with the ice. DIED ON OPERATING TABLE Believed No - Operation Was Per- formed on Maybelle Miliman. Detroit, Sept. 13.—Though awaliting & formal report from the expert an- alysis of the body of Maybelle Mill- man the authorities have practically accepted the opinion of several phy- sicians that .the girl succumbed to anaesthesia on an operating table be- fore surgical treatment had been con- cluded. That the girl died in a physician’s office and that but one physician was implicated in the case and that he dis- posed of the body in Ecorse creek also has been concluded by the polica. “Only one man has been arrested,” said Sheriff Gaston, “Whether the microscopal examination shows that Maybelle Millman died undey ¢he knife or from the effects of chloroform or other anaesthetic makes no difference in this case. I am satisfied with the evidence that has been found and it will be used when the time comes to good advantage.” PROSPERITY NOT AFFECTED J. J. Hill Says No Man Nor Group of Men Can Impair It. New York, Sept. 13.—James J. Hill, calm and imperturbable as a Trappist monk, sat at his desk at the headquar- ters of the Great Northern railway poring over maps and papers while the bulls and bears were in a fierce strug- gle in Wall street over what they had made a disputed point as to the effect the death of E. H. Harriman would have upon stock values. Apparently the empire builder of the Northwest was wholly unconcerned over what was going on among the speculators. “It is Wall street’s business,” he said, “to create disturbances of this kind.” There was a tinge of contempt in his manner and tone when he said this. “No man or group of men can se- rously affect the prosperity or sta- bility of this country,” Mr. Hill added after a retrospective pause. “In say- ing this I do not mean to belittle or in any way derogate the claim of Har- riman to a place high among the men who have done big things in his day. His activities were broad and his achievements notable.” STUDENT SHOT BY TEACHER Draws Knife but Schoolmaster Is Pre- pared With Revolver. Gravette, Ark., Sept. 18.—John But- ram, a student, was killed by his teacher, A. T. Kelley, at the edge of McDonald county, Mo. It is stated that Butram had caused the teachers of ~the Bear Hollow school considerable trouble and had succeeded in thrashing two teachers lately. ‘When Kelley took the school it is said that he went “prepared to teach.” Prior to the shooting young Butram announced, it is said, that there would be no school that day and Kelley in- sisted that the session would continue as usual. In the midst of a heated discussion it is declared Butram drew a knife and made a dash at Kelley, who in turn drew his pistol, shooting Butram three times. He dled instantly. Help to American Interests. Shanghai, Sept. 13.—Former Vice President Charles W, Fairbanks, ac- companied by Mrs. Falrbanks, arrived here four days ago and have left for Manila by way of Nagasaki. The Bhanghai Times refers editorially to Mr. Fairbanks’ visit tc China at the present time as especially helpful to American interests. Bandits Attack French Post. SBaigon, French Cochin-China, Sept. 18.—A band of pirates under the com- mand of Carinth, son of Dethan, re- cently attacked the French post at Bayon. Three members of the French force were killed and seven, including Captain Fontaine, were wounded. The pirates were repulsed with the loss of ten men killed. Blackburn to Return Home. Lexington, Ky., Sept. 18.—Governor J. C. S. Blackburn of the Panama canal zone will sail for home Sept. 30. On his arrivel he will confer with President Taft as to resigning ag governor. It is sald Governor Black- burn intends to return at once to re- side in Kentucky. CATTLE SHOT BY SETTLERS War Breaks Out Agaln and Ranchers Suffer Loss. Sioux Falls, 8. D.,, Sept. 11.—The bitterness existing for some time be- tween the few remaining cattlemen and the homesteaders residing in the vicinity of Quinn, one of the new towns between the Missourl river and the Black Hills, in Western South Dakota, has been intensified by the recent shooting by unknown persons of thirteen head of cattle belonging to John Hart, a prominent cattleman. Six of the animals were killed out- right and the others have since dled. It is believed the shooting was dome by homesteaders who were incensed because their corn crops had been destroyed by the cattle. lowa Minlster Ends Life. Chicago, Sept. 11.—Through a police Investigation of the finding of the body of Rev. Arthur J. Lander, a Bap- tist pastor of Eagle Grove, Ia., in the lake off the foot of Indiana street, it was cstablished that the minister, after having been absent from his home one year, had committed suicide by drowning himself. Louisville Brokers Suspend. Louisville, Sept. 11.—The suspen- sion of B. E. Pains & Co., a stock bro. kerage firm with New York and Chi- cago connections, is annoumced. Mr. Paine says that none of his customers will lose anything. Orinoco Claim Settled. Caracas, Venezuela, Sept. 11.—The claim of the Orinoco corporation sgainst the Venezuelan government has been settled. Venezuela will pay the company $385,000 in eight annual installments. BRYAN OPPOSES THE TAFT PLAN Denounces National Incor- poration of Railroads. CORPORATIONS DESIRE IT Nebraskan Declares Great Concerns Are Anxious to Escape State Super- vision and That “the President and His Cabinet of Corporation Attor- neys Are Planning the Surrender of the Country.” Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 11.—President Taft’s plans for national incorpora- tlon of railroads are vigorousiy de- nounced by W. J. Bryan in the cur- rent issue of his Commoner. Mr. Bryan says: “It is evident that President Taft is planning to urge the national in- corporation of railroads and other larger corporations. Such a measure is so uncalled for, so indefensible and 8o fnexcusable that the attempt to bring about such a revolution in the regulation of corporations suggests an organized and farreaching plot to ‘withdraw the corporations from state eontrol. “No state has asked for this, no platform has demanded it and the people have not discussed it. With a cabinet filled with corporation attor- neys the president seems to be plan- ning the biggest surrender of the cen- tury. “The great corporations want to escape from state supervision and na- tlonal incorporation is the means pro. posed. The democratic Democrats and the progressive Republicans will have the fight of a lifetime to defeat it “Doubtless many congressmen have been secretly pledged to it and many of the senators are pecuniarly inter- ested In bringing it about. The preda- tory corporations are preparing to steal a march on the people. It is not necessary to have national incor- poration; we can have all the regula- tlon necessary without national in- corporation.” KAUFMAN EAgY FOR JOKNSON White Man No Match for the €olored Fighter. San Francieco, Sept. 11.—in a con- test unique in local prize annals, Jack Johnson was accredited with a “news- paper” decision over Al Kaufman at the end of ten rounds of figshting at Coffroth’s arena. According to the articles of agree- ment, if both men were on thelr feet when ten rounds had been fought no decision was to be given. Referee Eddie Smith, however, stated Johnson was entitled to the verdict. Johnson employed tanializing lefts and forceful right uppercuts with such frequency that Kaufman was fairly be- wildered. Early in the contest his face began to show signs of Johnson's punches and in the third round a well directed wallop started the blood flow- ing from Kaufman's face. Johnson appeared to be holding him- self In reserve and it thol constant Jibing by the spectators and an occa- slonal punch from the blacksmith to start him going. When he did let go he played with Kaufman as if the lat- ter were a child. In the ninth round Kaufman found Johnson's stomach with a vicipus right swing. It was Kaufman's best blow and it convinced the negro that he had better be caretul. PASSING OF NOTED PEOPLE MAJOR WILLIAM STEVENSON, author and hymn writer, Is dead at his home at Flint, Mich.
