THE BEMIDJ! BAILY PIONEER PUSLISHED EVERY AFTERROON BY THE BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. C. J. PRYOR. C. E. CARSON. Entared In tho Postoi st Bemidl, Minsata, &3 second class SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE HOW ABOUT BROWER? Minnesota Mascot: Frank M. Eddy was in St. Cloud the other day and the Journal-Press credits him with having said that R. B. Brower of that city is the logical candidate for governor on the repub- lican ticket next year. Wby the logical one the Journal-Press does not say. According to that paper Eddy said in discussing the proposition: “Brower can be easily nominated, if he will let his friends over the state know that he will accept.” Must be a wonderful man, this Brower, if all he has to do to get the nomination for governor is to let his friends know that he wants it. Itis not everybody that is as popular as all that. But we wonder whether Mr. Eddy is not just a little off. What has this man Brower ever done to in- spire the confidence of the common people? Seems to us that we have never heard of anything that he has accomplished that would give him any leadpipe cinch on the governor- ship. True we have always heard that he was a prince of good fellows but that alone does not seem to fill the bill. We arenot knocking Brower. He is probably all right and would make a first class governor but we can’t take it all for granted just because our friend Eddy says so. He though last year that Jacob- son stood a pretty good show, and he was then a logical candidate with Eddy, but that logical stunt did not seem to pan out somehow or other. We want to know that Eddy is not onthe wrong track again. This being a logical candidate is not always what it is cracked up to be. Brower may be the proper man all right but Bro. Eddy will have to pro- duce some proof of that fact before we can accept it. Eddv must not ex- pect that all his utterances on public matters and relative to candidates for public positions will be taken as seriously at his eats-his- pie-with-a-knife speech. That speech queered “Jake” all right and it also should have proven to Mr. Eddy that it is not safe for him to joke about public matters. CURTISS SAILS FOR HOME American Aeronaut Bringing Back Much Prize Money. Paris, Sept. 1,.—Glenn H. Curtiss, the Ancerican aviator, sailed aboard the Kaiser Wilhelm II for New York.

TAFT IN EXCELLENT VOIGE AND SPIRITS Starts From Boston on Swing Around the Gountry, Boston, Sept. 1,—Well tanned by more than five weeks on the golf links and invigorated by the salt sea breezes of Massachusetts bay Presi- dent Taft closed his forty days’ vaca- tion and, in excellent voice, started on his 13,000-mile swing around the country. The president is looking for- ward to a delightful two months, in which he will meet thousands of peo- ple and to whom his voice will carry strength and conviction as to the pur- poses of the new administration. President Taft began his speech- making tour at the banquet of the chamber of commerce of Boston. He will resume in Chicago. The presidential party was driven from the Hotel Touraine at 9:30 a. m. and boarded the special train of three cars at the South station. This train ‘was sent out at 10:03 as a second sec- tlon of the regular 10 2. m. train for Albany and the West. The president was in a joyful mood as the train started and waved a happy goodbye to his vacation in the old Bay State. Makes Rear Platform Speech, Springfield, Mass., Sept. 1 l—Prest- dent Taft arrived here at 12:37 p. m. and left for Pittsfield five minutes later.

ONE ON BOARD JEANNIE Rough Material on Which He Made His Cemplete Report Sent to New ! York by Steamer and the Other Is | in His Personal Keeping—Comman- der Peary Gives Correspondent Fur- | ther Details of His Expedition. London, Sept. 1J—William T. Stead, journalist, is authority for the state- ment that Dr. Cook informed him that be had divided his proof of the dis- tovery of the North pole into two por- tions and that if either were lost he eould still prove his case with the other. Dr. Cook said be had the fin- ished result of his calculations in his own personal keeping, while he had sent the rough material on which these results were based on to New York by the Jeannie. Dr. Cook made this statement, writes Mr. Stead, in the presence of United States Misister Egan and half a dozen other persons of standing. Dr. Cook gave Mr. Stead the following description of his dash to the pole: “I started from Annatook, near Btah, on Feb. 19, which was the sun- rise of 1908. I had ten Eskimos, eleven sledges heavily laden with supplies and 103 dogs. It was the coldest part of the winter. The thermometer reg- istered 83 degrees below zero as we passed over the heights of Ellsmere strait. Secured Abundance of Game. “During the trip we struck several fine game trails and got 101 musk oxen, 335 hares and seven bears. We reached the end of the land and the beginning of the ice on March 18, 1908. There we established 2 supply statlon and I picked out the two best men and twenty-six of the best dogs for the dash across the ice. ‘“We were then at latitude 82.33, or 460 miles from the pole. We started our advance three days later, on March 21. During the first days we made long marches. I lived as the Bskimos did and managed to get some comfort by sleeping in snow houses which we dug out, eating tallow and drinking tea. March 30 an observa- tion gave our position as latitude 84.47. We had covered therefore not more than 130 miles in nine days. “I recorded daily our position and the incidents of the march. At noon of April 21, 1908, my observations showed that we were at the pole. The temperature was 38 degrees below zero. The barometer stood at 29.83 degrees. There was no land in sight, nothing but a depressing waste of ice and snow, which appeared purple in the light.” MORE DETAILS OF HIS TRIP Peary Discusses Flag Raising Cere- mony at North Pole. Battle Harbor, Labrador, via wire- less to Cape Ray, N. F., Sept. 1)— Commander Robert E. Peary, who is still at Batfle Harbor on board the steamer Roosevelt, conversed further with a correspondent regarding his journey to the North pole. He spoke particularly of the flags he raised at the pole and the records he left there. Commander Peary said that when he reached the pole the first flag to be thrown to the breeze was a silken American emblem presented to him by his wife fifteen years ago. He had carried thils flag on every one of his expeditions, leaving a piece of it at the highest point he attained. The last remnants were raised and left at the pole. The explorer then raised the navy ensign, the flag of the Navy league, then the flag of the Delta Kappa Bpsilon fraternity and finally a flag of peace. Tent poles and snow lances were used as flagstaffs and when all had been raised the com- mander took severzl photographs of the group. Records Buried in the lce. After this ceremony Peary enclosed records of his trip and other docu- ments and personal papers in a box and buried it in the ice. The docu- ments were placed in watertight cov: erings and the box itself was water- tight, so it would float if the shifting or melting ice brought it to water. Referring to the weather condl tions at the apex of the world Com mander Peary said he found nothing like the revolving wind referred to by Antarctic explorers. The weather con- | ditions varied from time to time, al- though there was probably consider- able uniformity. Peary did not witness the beginning or the end of the solar eclipse; the part he did see was obscured by| clouds. He said he had experienced| no earthquakes in the polar regions,! explaining at the same time that it would be difficult to recognize such occurrences because of the movement of the ice and the continual grinding noise resulting therefrom.

New York, Sept. 1/.—The grand Jury has dismissed the charge of felonious assault against Mrs. Mary Scott Castle, who on Aug. 8 at the ‘Waldorf-Astoria shot William B. Craig, a New York lawyer.

Pittsburg, Sept. 1..—A new strike bas been inaugurated at the Pressed Bteel Car company works at McKees Rocks by 3,000 foreigners, who re- fused to work unless the bosses and sub-bosses of the plant were dis- _charged.

He is now at work among the foreigners“@nd ex- gects an early adjustment of the trou- le. At the offices of the company it was stated that no grievances had been presented and nothing official was known of the new movement. The strike caused much exeitement in and about Schoenville, hut there ‘was no demonstration, aside from the foreigners assembling about the gate.

New York, Sept. 16.—Another sharp twist was given to the screws of financial centralization when the direc- tors of the National City bank unani- mously elected J. Pierpont Morgan, Jr, a member of their board to fill the vacancy caused by the death of E. H. Harriman. Financiers recognize in this an- other aggressive move on the part of the masters of finance in the United Btates to form a community of inter- est whose power is unequealled in the world. 1t is generally declared to be a part of the gigantic scheme of conquest that was maturing in the brain of E. H. Harriman when he inaugurated the new policy of railroad financiering around the Union Pacific as the nu- cleus of a system of transportation which he had determined should com- bine all the railroads of the continent under a single directing head. RUDOLPH SPRECKELS QUITS No Longer a Member of Frisco’s Good Government League. San Francisco, Sept. 1 \—Rudolph Spreckels has withdrawn from the Good (Government league, which was formed for the purpose of electing re- formers to municipal cfices. It was organized as part of the campaign against grait. The withdrawal of Spreckels was due to the action of the league, which recently endorsed Dr. T. B. Leland, the Democratic can- didate for mayor, and several others | on the Democratic ticket. Spreckels | thinks he sees in this action evidence | that Gavin McNab, the Democratic boss, has secured control of the league.
