Koll mentioned as a possible candidate for -either representative or senator from the Fifty-second district; and the men-| tion was always very favorable to the Cass Lake gentleman. We had occasion to talk politics with Mr. Koll, a few days ago, and he emph-tically stated that he was a candidate for no publicoffice. He further asserted that he was making too much money to be actively iden- tified with politics, as a candidate, and would, under no consideration, allow the use of his name asa can- didate for office. ) Mr. Koll 1s a fine fellow, and would no doubt fill the office of either senator or representative with to himself and beneficial results to his constituents. However, if the people of the Fify-second district realize when they have a good thing, they will continue the Hon. P. H. McGarry as one of their representatives at St. Paul. He opposed Bemidji for the normal school, all right; but we don’t hold that against him. He fought fair and won a good fight—and it was not his fault that Cass Lake did not get the normal school. He is a hustler, a good “mixer,” and has a peculiar faculty of getting what he goes after. “Pat” is all right, all right. honor TOOLE WILL “MAKE GOOD.” We learn from the Cass Lake papers that M. L. Toole of Cass Lake has been appointed game warden for Cass county, and that he will accept the appointment. The writer is well acquainted with “*Mike” Toole, and we know him to be one of the most conscientious men of our acquaintance. Mr. Toole one time lived in Grand Rap- ids; and they still talk, down at Grand Rapids, of rhe splendid work which “Mike” did while in care of the county bastile and looking after the law enforcement portion of the county government. Mr. Toole will undoubtedly make a fine game warden. He has good judgment; is fair and impartial; and some of the residents of Cass Lake who heretofore shown but little respect for the game laws will do well to read up afew and walk in the straight and narrow path— else Mr. Toole is liable to talk to them “‘Like a Dutch uncle,” as he often puis it have WILD SCENES IN SPANISH CORTES Rioting Marks Gpening Ses- sions at Madrid. CABINET SEEMS DOOMED Warring Liberal Factions Have United Their Forces and Now Present an Overwhelming Majority Against the Weyler, the “Butcher” of Cuba, Looms Up as Premier of New Ministry. Hendaye, France, Oct. 1'—The fall of the Spanish cabinet is predicted by persons arriving here.from Madrid, {who say the opening session of the cortes clearly demonstrated that the Liberals will control the session. The expected coalition of the here- tofore warring Liberal factions has 1tnken place and they now present an overwhelming majority, which is like- ly to block the government at every hand and force the cabinet’s resigna- tion. The opening session of the assem- bly, arrivals here say, was the storm- fest seen in Spain in years. Rioting accompanied the initial ceremonies. Fists, ink stands and canes were used In belaboring each other and though the ushers, attaches and officials Government—General sought to keep the combatants apart tattered gar- dozens of black eyes, GENERAL WEYLER. ments and bleeding noses attested to the fierceness of the encounter. In the event of the cabinet’s over- ihrow General Weyler looms up as : the most probable man for the pre- miership. Weyler, who earned the title of “butcher” in the Cuban cam- paign, has identified himself with the Liberal faction and is taking an active part in their struggles. Madrid newspapers contain no men- tion of the revolutionary feeling that is sweeping over Europe as a result of Ferrer's execution. The aim of the government is to keep the public in complete ignorance of the jtrue con- ditions and every word that is print- ed in the nmewspapers of the capital must first pass through the hands of a government censor. PRINCIPAL WITNESS IS DEAD A VISED MITCHELL TO ACCEPT. In the Wadena Pioneer-Journal’s “'( asually Observed” column, we fi «d the following: “Several of our exchanges posi- tively state that the report to the efféct that Robert C. Dunn advised Charley Mitchell to decline the appointment of private secretary to the governor is mot true. On the contrary they say that Mr. Dunn advised Mr. Mitchell to accept the place, if it were tendered to him by Gov. Eberhart.” SEEKING AIO IN NEW YORK John R. Walsh of Chicago Trying to Secure Loan. New York, Oct. 18.—John R. Walsh, the Chicago financier, is in New York attempting to get a loan with which to pay the quarterly interest overdue and defaulted on the $7,000,000 in Chi- cago clearing house banks. It is be- lieved he was In conference with offi- cials of the United States Steel cor- poration. A deal may be arranged by which the steel trust will take over -the Walsh railroads and coal lands in the Middle West in return for the liqui- dation of Walsh’s obligations to Chi- cago banks. PASSING OF NOTED PEOPLE JOSEPH WHEELOCK, the brilliant young comedian whom illness forced from the stage at the height of a most successful career, was found dead in a voom of the Broadway ho- tel in Paterson, N. J. There was only 20 cents in his clothing. W. W. CARGILL, railroad owner, coal and grain merchant and specu- lator, is dead at La Crosse, Wis. He was sixty-five years old. He was rated as worth $15,000,000, being the richest man in Western Wisconsin. MRS. MARY S. ROBINSON, sixty years old, an author of children’s stories, committed suicide at Mama- roreck, N. Y., by inhaling gas. Her friends know of no motive for the suicide. " MAX BASS, general immigration agent of the Great Northern, is dead at Chicago. He had been ill for some time from stomach trouble. Indiana Legislative Bribery Case Dis- missed. Indianapolis, Oct. 1 .—The closing scene in the attempt of an agent of a tobacco company to bribe Represen- tative Ananias Baker to vote against the anti-cigarette bill was enacted in the criminal court when Prosecutor Hooton opened a sealed envelope containing the five $20 bills that the agent is allegéd to have sent to Rep- resentative Baker in 1905 and asked that a court record be made of the fact that he had turned the monmey over to the home for aged and friend- less women Representative Baker died recently and the case against the agent, who had fled to Burope, was dismissed. PLANS FOR ATLANTIC FLEET will Christmas at New York and Then Go to Cuba. ‘Washington, Oct. 1 .—Plans for the vessels of the Atlantic fleet for the coming winter were determined upon at a conference between Secretary Meyer, kear Admiral Seaton Schroe- der, the commander-in-chief of the fleet; Rear Admiral Potter, chief of the bureau of navigation, and other department officials. They include the spending of the Christmas holi- days by the ships in the port of New York. After the visit there the ves- sels will go to Guantanamo to take up the active work of the winter, includ- ing the usual annual maneuvers off Culebra. Blind Man Champion Worker. Hazleton, Pa., Oct. 1 .—By a coin- cidence unusually odd at Buck Moun- tain colliery the champion worker is a blind man named John Minnich. According to statements by his fellow workers he assists in all kinds of dangerous work and loads more coal than any other men in the mines. NO CLUE TO KIDNAPPERS St. Louis Children, Found in Chicago, Know Nothing of Abductors. Chicago, Oct. 1'.—Tomaso and Grace Viviano, the children kidnapped last August from their home at St. Louis and recovered here while wan- dering cold and hungry about the streets, spent a quiet night at the Passavant hospital. The girl, at first believed to be suf- fering from pneumonia brought on by exposure to the cold, was said to be suffering from nothing more serious _than a severe cold. The children talked scarcely at all after awakening, but the warm food glven them and the solicitous care of the nurses were indicated in brighter eyes and the return of blood to their cheeks. Little could be gained from them regarding the kidnapping, The boy spoke of being in a wagon drawn by two horses and declared that the driver was a fine man who had given Grace a chain. Subsequently they were taken aboard a train. On the day of their disappearance Peter Vivi- ano, father of Grace, received an un- signed letter directing him to place $25,000 in a specified place. INDIAN REFUGEE ENDS HIS OWN LIFE Puréued by Fnsée He Sends Last Buligt Into: Brain, San Bernardino, Cal,, Oct. 1 —Halt starved and without ammunition to stand off the officers who had penned him in a mountain pass “Billy Boy” Pinto, the Piute Indian murderer, sent his" last bullet crashing into his own heart and fell lifeless on the rocks, according to word received here. Knowing that the Indian fugitive's ammunition must be low Sherift Ralphs and his posse had begun a steady advance upon “Billy Boy’s” monntain stronghold. Facing certain capture and death on the gallows tor the murder of Mike Boniface, an aged Indian. aund. his little daughter Pinto ended his own life. The officers cremated the outlaw’s body on a funeral pyre hastily con- structed on the edge of the desert. “Billy Boy” loved Little Nita, the fourteen-year-old daughter of Mike Boniface. The aged Indian would not countenance. the youth’s suit and _“Billy Boy” shot him, threw the girl across his saddle bow and escaped into the mountains. A few days after, when she tried to escape, Pinto.shot her, “Passes pursued “Billy Roy” and soon cornered him in a mountain pass. The pass was impregnable and the Indian had no trouble holding out as long as his fcod and ammunition lasted. When they were gone there was mno alternative—it meant death and he chose to be his own execu- tioner. LIPTON SAILS FOR AMERICA Hopes to Arrange Ancther Interna- tional Yacht Race. London, Oct. 13.—Sir Thomas Lip- ton, who sailed for New York on the steamer Cedric, talked rather more encouragingly of his prospects of se- curing another race for the America's cup. “I am going to New York,” he said, “in the hope of arranging another race. T realize that there are many difficulties in the way, but I am con- vinced that they can be overcome be- cause I know that the New York Yacht club is composed of good sportsmen, who, rather than have the race die a natural death, will, I feel sure, do their utmost to meet me.” REVOLT IN HONDURAS LIKELY Uprising Will Follow Success of Re- bellion in Nicaragua. Ceiba, Honduras, Oct. 13—The news of the uprising in Nicaragua has started a revolutionary agitation on the east coast of Honduras and the situatien in this section of the coun- try is critical. President Davila is not popular in the eastern portion of Hon- duras and the recent customs tariff and shipping laws enacted by the Honduras congress have increased the ill feeling toward the Tegucigalpa government. The news of a revolutionary victory in Nicaragua will be a signal for an insurrection in Honduras. WHY SALVES FAIL T0 GURE EGZEMA They Clog the Pores—Only a Liquid Can Reach the Inner Skin. Since the old-fashioned theory of curing eczema through the blood has been given up by scientists, many different salves have been tried for skin disease, But it has been found that these salves only clog the pores and can not- pene- trate to the inner skin below the epidermis where the eczema germs are lodged. This—the quality of penetrating —probably explains the tremend- ous success of the only standard liquid eczema cure, oil of winter- green as compounded in D, D. D. Prescription. After ten years of cure after cure, the world’s lead- ing skin specialists have accepted this as the true eczema cure. We ourselves do not hesitate to recommend D. D. D. Prescription at $1,00 a bottle, but for the bene- fit of those who have never tried the prescription, we arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for a special large trial bottle at 25 cents on a special offer now. This first bottle ought to convince every sufferer, and, at any rate, it will surely take away the itch at once. Barker's Drug Store, BARRILL’S STORY CORROBORATED Otters Tell of Cook’s Ascent of Mount McKinley. WERE MEMBERS OF PARTY Three of the Affidavits Made by Men Who Accompanied the Expedition, but' Who Were Not With Cook- and Barrill ‘at the Time the Latter Are Alleged to Have Reached the Sum- mit—All Declare 'Cook’s Claim Is False. New Yerk, Oct. 1J.—Four more affi- davits were made public here in con- nection with the investigation of Dr. Frederick. A. Cook’s = expedition to Mount McKinley. Three of them. are by members of the Cook party—Fred Printz, a guide; Walter P. Miller, pho- tographer, and Samuel Beecher. Their testimony relates in- detail to move- ments of the party, explaining that Cook and Barrill were alone together the period in which Dr. Caook claims to bave reached the summit of Mount McKinley. All three say that Barrill assured. them later that Dr. Cook’s story was false. The fourth afidavit is that of Dr. Jehn E. Shore, a physician of Leaven- worth, Wash., who tells of a conver- sation with Oscar F. Blankenship of the United States forestry service, in which Blankenship' said that Dr: Cook’s claims to have climbed Mount McKinjey were false, inasmuch as the feat was impossible in the short time during which Cook and Barrill were absent. Blankenship was located near Mount McKinley at the time Cook’s expedition was there. Tell What Barrill Said. The affidavit of Fred Printz, after stating that he and several others had been sent on a side trip to hunt specimens for the Smithsonian insti- tute at the time Dr. Cook was at- tempting the ascent of Mount McKin- ley, goes on to say that a month after the trip Barrill laughingly told him that he and Cook had not reached the summit of the mountain, although both had said so when they joined the Smithsonian party Sept. 22, 1906, after having spent some days in at- tempting to scale the peak. Walter P. Miller, the photographer, says that in May, 1908, Barrill -in- formed him that he and Dr. Cook had climbed only the first ridge of the mountain. Samuel Beecher’s affidavit states that the point located by Edward Bar- rill as being the point claimed as the top of Mount McKinley had an ap- parent elevation of only 7,000 feet. Beecher was a member of the party, but did not accompany Cook and Bar- rill on whai the physician described as the final dash for the summit. BARRILL WAS PAID. FOR IT Dr. Cook lIssues Statement Concerning Guide’s: Affidavit. New York, Oct. 1i—Dr. Frederick A. Cook has made a statement in which he says: “Upon my return from Atlantie City I conferred with a confidential agent whom I had sent to Montana to in- vestigate stories which had reached me in Kansas City to the effect that strong inducements had been offered Edward N. Barrill, the guide who ac- companied me to the summit of Mount McKinley in the summer of 1906. This confidential agent has just returned from Montana. “After thorough investigation-there he reports to me that an offer of a considerable sum of money was made to Mr. Barrill on the condition that he prepare and sign an affidavit which would be calculated to discredit my claim that T succeeded in scaling the Alaskan peak.” SAY HE TALKED TOO MUCH Freshman in Ohio College Tarred and Feathered by Hazers.

ADVIGE TO WOMEN. A Message from a Famous Beauly Specialist to Women Lacking in Energy and Vitality. Thousands of women vainly at tempt to improve therr complex- ions and to remove blackheads, crows’ feet and other blemishes, through the use of cosmetics This treatment fails because the trouble lies tar deeper than the skin. They are suffering from im- pure and impoverished blood. This condition is in many cases due to a catarrhal condition of the whole system which finds its ex- pression in sallow, muddy com- plexion, dark circled eyes, general weaknese of the system, and per- haps most plainly in the weeping of mucous membranes that is com- monly called catarrh, In fact this whole tendency is, properly speaking, Catarrh. Ban ish this catarrh, and the complex- ion will clear as if by magic, eyes will brighten, faces become rosy and shoulders erect. Perfect beauty goes only with perfect health, and perfect health for women can only be obtained through one certain treatment— that which will cure catarrh. Mme. Swift, New York, the famous . beauty specialist known throughout the world and an ac- cepted authority on all relating thereto, states that the one posi- tive and permanent relief for catarrth is Rexall Mucu-Tone. Here-is her letter: “I can strongly endorse the claims made for Rexall Mucu-Tone as a cure for systemic catarrh, Its tonic effects are remarkable, It builds up strength and restores vitality, If women who are tired and-run down, lacking in strength and vitality, will use Rexall Mucu- Tone, they will praise as I do 1ts strengthening and healing quali- ties,” Rexall Mucu-Tone works tbn;ugh the blood, acting thus up- on the mucous cells—the conges- tion and inflammation: of which causes local catarrh, This remedy causes poision to be expelled from the system, and the blood is puri- tied and revitalized. Thus the natural functions of the mucous cells are restored, and the mem- branes are cleansed and made strong, We know that Rexall Mucu-Tone does relieve catarrh.
