SUBSGRIPTION---85.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE HELP BOOST; DON'T BE A PESSIMIST. If there be one way better than another to ruin a town, itis for those who live in it to go about apologizing for its existence. There be one or two individuals in this city who are always ready to|| say, by their actionsat least, that Bemidji don’t amount to much. Chey will tell you that the town is a “dead one:” that some town adjacent is more respectable, more enterpris- ing, has better people, better eunjoy- ments, is ahead of us in everything. This is all wrong; and don’t you ever believe it. Every good citizen of this town should take a special local pride in all that pertains to home. The schools, the churches, tbe amuse- ments, the business enterprises, in factall industries and everything that pertains to the welfare of the city and its people, should be looked on by our own people as just as good as ‘can be gotten up any- where in the state of Minnesota. The city that says “we can” will always succeed in whatever it under- takes. The city that says “well, I don’t know; I don’t think it will amount to much,” is never of much force. If you happen to be one of those two or three who have no lotal pride, come around to the writer and borrow some—we’ve got lots of it. Boost Bemidji;and always be ready to put your shoulder to the wheel and assist the fellows who have their coats off and are hustling for the good of you and me and all of us. To——with the pessimist. optomist for Bemidji. Be an We learn, from perusal of our ex- changes, that the talented E. J. Tay- lor of Blackduck and Bemidji has accepted a position to take charge of the Barnesville Record, and has, in fact, already assumed his new position. Br'er Taylor has had experiences in this -county that should serve him well in his officiat- ing capacity on the Record; and the Pioneer wishes him well. Little Falls Transcript: How many people are there. who are dis- satisfied with the Payne bill, who can actually tell what its provision are? Princeton Union: Not one ina thousand. More than that, if each and every satisfied and dissatisfied person were supplied with a copy of the law not one in ten could 1n- terpret its provisions correctly. The schedules with their per centums and ad valorems, their provisos.and exceptions, are fearfully made, and we freely confess many of them are Greek to us. Subdivision 265 of section one, however plainly provides for a duty on potatoes of 25 cents per buskel of 60 pounds. Farmers in the potato belt have no kick to make against that item of sched- ule G.

PLOT TO EXTORT ALLEGED New York Men Placed Under Arrest y in Chicago. Chicago, Sept. 23.—Bench warrants were issued for George Hazelton, Jr., an attorney, and L. Scott Kemper, an . actor, both of New York, and both were arrested here after Mr. and Mrs. James H. Channon disclosed what Is declared to be a plot to extort $160,- 000 from them. Threats to make public charges that ‘Channon, while guardian of the estate of Mabel Arey, a relative by marriage, had been guilty of irregularities, are the means the defendants are declared to have employed to obtain money from the Channons. Mrs. Channon was the daughter of a widow who married Henry W. Arey, & wealthy Philadelphia map. One child, Mabel Arey, was born of this marriage and when her father died she inherited about $200,000. Mr. Channon was appointed Miss Arey’s guardian and after she reached her majority he continued as manager of her property. Miss Arey went on the stage and married Henry Ludlam, an actor. Mr. Channon made a settlement of prop- erty at that time. Later the Ludlams demanded a house and lot in this ecity, valued at $30,000, which they said Mr. Channon withheld from them. Hazel- ton and Kemper then appeared in the case and threatened to expose the Channens in mary irregularities in the handling of the Arey property un- less they were given what the Lud- lams had demt\nd(\d :| CROWD CHEERS EVERY TIME THE KNIFE FELL Three Frenchmen Gulllotined for Atrocisus Crimes. Valence, France, Sept. 23.—Three men, Berruyer, David and Liettard, were guillotined here at daybreak for a series of atrocious crimes in the de- Dpartment of Drome. The crimes cre- ated a reign of terror. No less than twelve murders and 200 robberfes are laid to the doors of these men. They often tortured their victims with red hot irons. A great crowd witnessed the executions and applauded wildly every time the knife fell. The men joked with each other on the way to the scaffold and jeered at the waiting crowd as they awaited their turn. Japs Defeat American Team. Tokio, Sept. 23.—The University of Wisconsin baseball - team, which is making a tour of Japan, was defeated in its first game by the Keio univer- sity nine. The score was 3 to 2, with ‘Wisconsin making seven hits and Keio hitling safely only three times. Kein made only two errors, while the in- vading” nine had -four errors on its side. Low License in Many Towns, Milwaukee, Sept. 23—Low license won.in a large majority of cases in the. elections in Wisconsin, the result being a great surprise to the temper- ance people, who put up a spirited fight. The vote seems to bear ot the statement of the liquor forces.that the reaction against the “dry” wave has set in. Shoots Worzn; Kills Himself.

WILL NOT IMITATE PEARY | WANTED—Small house, close in, Hae No Intention of Remaining in Re- tirement Until the Controversy Over the Discovery Is Settled—Naval Offi- cer Starts From Nova Scotia for the United States by Rail. New York, Sept. 23.—“Home” will 20t mean rest for Dr. Frederick A. Cook for weeks to come. who says he was first at the North pole arose after ten hours’ sleep to begin a day of hard work. Piled in the sitting room of his suite at the ‘Waldorf-Astoria were nearly 1,000 let- ters and telegrams from all parts of the world, to'many of which he must give immediate answer. Dr. Cook has put all but the finish- ing touches to the first book narra- tive of his polar experiences, but it is probable that he will write a series of magazine articles also. His first la- bor, however, will be the preparation of the record of his discovery, upon which he depends to convince the scientific world and the world at large that his claims are well founded. He has promised that this record shall be made public as soon as it is filed with the University of Copenhagen ‘and probably without walting for the ver- dict of that body. Will' Not Keep in" Retirement. Neither the discoverer nor Mr. Bradley, his financial backer, have commented on Commander Peary’s de- cision to remain in comparative retire- ment until the question of polar su- premacy is settled. It is believed, however, that mnow being fully launched on a career of publicity Dr. Cook will not follow the naval officer’s example. “Why should he?” said one of his friends. “Cook says he found the North pole. Even to admit that there is ground to doubt his claims ‘would be a confession of weakness.” The heard of aldermen formally recognized Dr. Cook as the discoverer of the North pole in a resolution pro- viding for a public reception in his honor in the aldermanic chamber. On this occasion Dr. Cook will receive the freedom of the city. PEARY ON THE WAY HOME Starts From Nova Scotia for United States by Rail. Portland, Me., Sept. 28—The gen- eral passenger department of the Maine Central railroad here has re- ceived a dispatch which stated that the Peary party were on their way to- wards the United States on the inter- colonial express and had just left An- tigonish, N. S. WOMAN HELD AS BABY KILLER Adopted Many Children and Is Be- lieved to Have Slain Them. Toronto,- Ont.,, Sept. 23.—The dis- covery of a baby lying dead beside the railway near Niagara Falls, with the word “Authers” on a ticket pasted on its back, led to the arrest of Mrs. Maud Turner, to whom had been given $100 to adopt the child a few days ago. This arrest and the publicity at- tached to it brought a score of letters to the detective department from peo- ple whose children she adopted, but who fear theirs also may have been killed. When Mrs. Turner was arrest- ed she had another child with her. The police have obtained -informa- tion pointing to the belief that this woman has adopted scores of bables for a consideration and, having stran- gled them, threw their bodies in Lake Ontario or some other obscure place.
