THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER PUBLISHED EVERY AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY BY THE BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. C. J. PRYOR. G. E. CARSON. A. C. RUTLEDGE, Editor. Entered In the Postoffice at Bemid)l, Minnssota, as second class matter, SUBSCRIPTION---85.00 PER YEAR IN. ADVANCE Minneapolis Tribune: Robert C. Dunn of Princeton was a St. Paul visitor yesterday. Mr. Dunn refused to discuss his future political plans, but let it be clearly inferred that he expected Governor Eberhart would have opposition for the nomination to succeed himself, and ,tl:nat he might be part of that opposition. In commenting on the ruling of the postoffice department wherein news- papers are strictly forbidden to print accounts of winners of raffles, card game prizes, etc.,, because of the alleged violation of the anti-lottery law, the Glencoe Enterprise says: “Itsall right to publish the result of a big land lottery conducted - by the government, but when it comes to printing the “lucky number” that won the accordean at John Smith’s rafille, that’s—different.” Bemidji and Cass Lake are re- joicing because the Soo will build its line through those cities and they bave good reason. With the Soo from those cities to Duluth there will be competition in freight traffic and that will go a long way te give those cities and Duluth just rates.— Duluth News Tribune. And if Big Duluth will instruct her legislative delegation to take a broader view of matters pertaining to her neighbors and not pledge to “take sides” in legislation that does not directly interest or effect the cityof Duluth, the “Zenith City” will reap a large réward. ‘‘‘Nuf sed.” A COMMENDABLE ACTION. The action of the city council in unanimously voting to revoke the license f -T. Dugas, because of the alleged fact that Dugas had sold liquor to Indians and had thereby violated an agreement made between the saloonkeepers and the Brewers, is a commendable act; and this action illustrates very forcibly that Bemidji people do not countenance such violations of the law, and will assist in all possible ways in sup- pressing the liquor traffic among the reds. There was a possibility that the special officer in charge of this suppressing of the liquor traffic among the Indians would have closed every saloon in this city, had the council refused to revoke the license of one against whom charges were made of having continuously sold liquor to Indians, the charge being backed up by affidavits of agents who made the charge direct. The charge was denied, but the affidavits appeared conclusive to set aside the denial; and the * council acted promptly in the matter. That the Indian department is determined to stamp out the sale of liquor to Indians and enforce the provisions of old treaties if the prac- tice is not stopped is very apparent; and it those who are ergaged in the liquor trafflc in Bemidji desire to continue in the business they will do well to strictly obey the state law regulating this matter and also see to it that their neighbor also refuses to furnish “‘fire water” to his red brethren.

Residence in Some Country Not Covered by Ex- tradition Laws—J. P. Morgan Said to Have Secured Walsh Railroads. Chicago, Oct. 27.—United States District Attorney Sims has filed a peti- tion 1n the United States circuit court of appeals asking that John R. Walsh, convicted of misapplying the funds of the Chicago National bank, be taken mto custody and a continuance of bail denied. The ground urged by the federal attorney for the action, which would put Mr. Walsh in prison re- gardless of an appeal to the United States supreme court, is that the gov- ernment fears that Mr, Walsh will flee from the United States and take up residence in some country not cov- EDWIN W. siIM8. ered by extradition laws. The court took the petition under advisement. ‘While the court was considering the application a report was circulated that the man back of the .reported negotiations to take over the Walsh railroads is no other than J. Pierpont Morgan. The details of the sale of the roads are said to have been worked out at a serizs of meetings held here in which Morgan’s representatives par- ticipated.

THE CAUSE OF COLDS Good' Advice Regarding the Prevention of Coughs and Colds. If people would only fortify and strengthen tbe system, the majority of cases of coughs, colds and pneu- monia might be avoided. These troubles are frequently due to weak- ness, - which produces a catarrhal condition of the mucous membrane, which is an internal skin of the body. When this skin is weakened it be- comes. -easily infected with germs which cause many of the diseases to which flesh is heir. Healthy mucous membranes are essential safeguards of the body’s general health. An excellent aid in the prevention of coughs, colds, pneumonia, and such like infectious diseases, is a remedy that will prevent or cure catarrh. We have a remedy which we honestly believe to be unsurpassed in excellence for the prevention of coughs, colds and all catarrhal con- ditions. = It is the prescription of a famous physician, who has an en- viable reputation of thirty years of cures gained through the use of this formula. We_ promise to make no charge for the medicine should it fail to do as we claim. = We urge everybody who has need of sucha medicine to try Rexall Mucu-Tone, It stands to reason that we could not afford to make such statements and give our own personal guarantee to this remedy if it were not pre- pared to prove the reasonableness of our claim in every particular, and we see no reason why anyone should hesitate to accept our offer and try it. We have two sizes of Rexall Mucu-Tone, prices 50c and $1.00. Sometimes a 50-cent bottle is suffi- cient to give marked relief. = As a general thing the most chronic case is relieved with an average of three large ~ bottles. You can obtain Rexall Remedies in Bemidji only at our store—The Rexall Store. Bark- er’s Durg store. 3 FEARS WAR WILL ~BE THE RESULT 5 'llem'yfieorge, Jr., Discusses Our Policy in Far East. FOR BENEFIT ‘OF TRUSTS Declares the--Power of the United States Is Being Used Solely in the Interest of Wall Street Financlers Under the Guise of '‘“Upholding Amer:can Honor"—Points to Knox’s Statement Following Crane’s Recall. New York, Oct. 2/.—With the ex- pressed opinion that the present pol- icy of the United States in the Far East is. being shaped solely in the Interest of a group of Wall street financiers and that no possible bene- fit to' the nation at large can result from it Henry George, Jr., son of the great single taxer and publicist, de- clared that trouble is certain to result which will end in the American navy and army being called on to fight the private battles of the American mon- ied interests under the guise of “up- holding American honor.” Asked what in his opinion was the real cause back of the forced resigna- °| tion of Charles R. Crane of Chicago from the post of minister to China Mr. George replied: “A war of the big American syndi- cates. “I do mot pretend to know more of the immediate grounds for the sec- retary of state’s action than have been published,” continued Mr. ‘Feorge. “Mr. Crane may or may not have been indiscreet. - The thing to note is not.that, but the note in Secretary Knox’s statement that the govern- ment is studying the situation between China and Japan' in relation to Man- churia with a view to determining whether there is anything in the agreements adversely opposing the American interests. “This is an admission of the grav- est importance, a seeming admission of the very thing charged against us in the Far Fast—that the American government is doing the work of the American syndicates in getting con- cessions and loan privileges in China and trying to force' a way for them into Manchuria.” LOST FAMILY IS RESCUED Found Exhausted on Edge of Imperial Desert.

Peckham, assoclate justice of the United States supreme court, is dead at Coolmore, his summer home at Al- tamont.

Following adjournment of the May term of the United States supreme court he came on from Wash- ington with Mrs. Peckham to spend the summer at Altamont, expecting to return for the beginning of the October term. A few days ago his condition became such that his physi- cians ssid he was likely to die at any time or might lnger for several -months. Justice Peckham was a Democrat. He was born in Albany, N.

D, a few days ago, have proved fatal. The boy died in a local Rospital. § The boy's-father is a leading figure In the reforms in his town against the unlawful sale of liquor and the theory is advanced in substantiation of Lis son's statement that two men wantonly poured oil on the child and then sct him on fire.
