THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER PUBLISHED EVERY AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY BY THE BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. C. J. PRYOR. G. E. CARSON. A. G. RUTLEDGE, Editor. Entered In the Postoffice at Bamidl, Minnescta, as second SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00-PER YEAR IN ADVANCE “I have retired from political life,” says the Hon. John Lind, once democratic governor of Minnesota. But when he is ‘asked if he would accept the democratic nomination for governor, if tendered him, John stammers somewhat and actually turns red. It is a different matter to turn down the honor of being a candidate for the office of governor of this great North Star State, re- gardless of what party does the “‘pre- senting.” © The Daily Hibbing Tribune resem- bles that rare quality which we are told is possessed of the vintage of the grape—it improves with age. Verily, the new daily appears to be filling a “long felt want,” over on the range. t is hoped that the good people of Hibbing will fully appreciate the real value of such a publication in a substantial manner that will guarantee the permanency of the newest venture of Brlers Hitchcock and Pfremmer. Guesses are being made as to MEMPHIS GREETS PRESIDENT TAFT Executive ‘Accorded a True Southern Welcome, CHEERING CROWD AT DOCK Refrain Taken Up by Hundreds of Whistles and Bells All Over:the City and in No Place on His Trip Has His Reception Been More En- thusiastic—Dedicates the New Y. M. C. A. Building. Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 28.—Thou- sands of throats called a loyal jand true Southern greeting to President Willlam. H. Taft on his arrival atithe| wharf here. Hundreds of whistlesand clanging bells all over the city took up the refrain and in no city visited by the president in his history .mak- ing trip across the continent has he heen given a more enthusiastio recep- tion. All Memphis.and thousands of vis- itors thronged the wharf and bluffs long hefore the imposing flotilla ‘made its appearance on the broad expanse of the Mississippi river. When ithe flotilla did appear, with the: steamer Oleander, bearing the president ‘and his personal retinue, 300 yarde in ad- vance of the long column. flanked on either side by the tiny, bat grim ‘tor- pedo bonts, the pent up enthusiasm of the gathered populace burst out into a roar of greeting, which echoed and re-echoed across the river to lose it~ whether R. C. Dunn’ will be a candi- date for the republican nomination for governor, but tke Princeton man holds his counsel and does not enlighten even his best friends as to what he intends to do. It is a safe bet that “Bob” will make a state- ment, with his usual straightforward- ness, some time along about the beginning of the new year. In the meantime, some certain "gnm shoe” political bushwhackers are exceed- ingly “oneasy.” DULUTH PAPERS FRIENDLY TO THIS B SECTION. The Twin City daily papers, not content with making we country scribes pay a good round sum for their publications and absolutely re- fusing exchange courtesies, have been usiag less and less of north- west news matter of interest to this section of the state, whereas news of gelf in the sister state of Arkansas. Welzomed by Mayor Malone. ‘When Mayor James ‘H. Malone, in welcoming the president, turned to the question of river improvement and “fourteer. feet through the valley” staunch adherents of deep waterways from the lakes to the gulf gathered near and interrupted the speaker with a salvo of cheers. President Taft's reply was brief and to the point. He has on prevlous ‘occasions declared himself upon the waterways proposition and he repeat- ed his declarations. Following the welcoming exercises the president and the other mwembars of his party en- tered automobiles and a parade was commenced through the streets of the city. The president and his personal es- cort left the main body of the automo- bile procession temporarily to go to the Y. M. C. A. new building, the ded- lcation of which had been pcstponed for the presideut to perform. . After the dedication President Taft was swiftly carried to the Auditorium, where he was welcomed on behalf of the state cf Tennessee by Governor western Canada, Winnipeg and other parts of King Edward’s domain is printed at much length and given prominent preference of position. Not so with the two papers pub- lished in Duluth, the Herald and News-Tribune. These publications, having at heart the real welfare of Minnesotans, and more especially advocating the development and pre-eminence of northern Minnesota as a whole, not only give prominence to every piece and parcel of news of interest to this section, but the owners and publishers of the Herald and the News-Tribune exchange their papers with the publications issued in all of the towns here- abouts, whether they be issued daily, semi-weekly or once a week, and there is no charge to pay to “boot,” in the exchange. The Duluth newspapers are all right; and they deserve every sub- scriber they can get in northern Minnesota—subscribing for either paper is but an act of loyalty to real friends.

WOMEN FAVOR POLYGAMY Accusation Made by Bishop Spaulding of Utah. 8an Francisco, Oct. 28.—“The wo- men are more anxious for polygamy than th: wmen are” said RBishop Spaulding of Utah at a conclave of the Episcopal diocese in this city. The bishop went on to say that polygamy in Utah has more recruits among the women than among the men and that so long as woman suf- frage prevails in that state it will be utterly impossible to establish laws that would result in the abolition ot polygamy.

Although the president’s ; voice still is somewhat weak and hoarse he consumed the time allotted to him for his address. FUND TO HUNT DYNAMITERS Indianapolis Business Men WIill &ub- scribe $10,000. Indianapolis, Oct. 28.—The police department having thus far falled to make an arrest in connection with the explosions of dynamite that wrecked buildings in several parts of Indianapolis last Sunday night Frank H.

CAUSES 95 PER CENT OF DISEASES Advice Concerning Stomach Troubles and How to Remedy Them Do not neglect indigestion which leads to all sorts of ills and compli- cations. An eminent doctor once said that ninety-five per cent of all the ills of the human body have their origin in a disordered stomach. A physician who made a specialty of stomach trouble, particularly dys pepsia, after years of study perfected the formula from which Rexall Dys- pepsia Tablets are made. Our experience with Rexall Dys- pepsia Tablets leads us to believe them~to be the greatest remedy known for the relief of acute indiges- tion and chronic dyspepsia. Their ingredients are soothing and healing to the inflamed membranes of the stomach. They are richin pepsin, one of the greatest digestive aids known to medicine. The relief they afford is almost immediate. =~ Their use with persistency.-and regularity for a short time brings about a cessation of the pains caused by stomach. disorders. Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will in- sure healty appetite, aid digestion and promote nutrition. As evidence of our sincere faith in Rexall Dys- pepsia Tablets, we ask .you to _try them at our risk. If they do not give you entire satisfaction, we will return you the money you paid us for them, without guestion or formal- ity. They come in three sizes, prices 25 cents, 50 cents ;and $1.00.

Druggist Barker submits the following to the readers of the Pioneer: . For several years we have an- nounced, with our recommenda- tion, that we had found a positive cure for eczema; a simple skin wash, o1l of wintergreen com- pounded with other healing in- gredients. Yet we know there are people right here in this town who have eczema, and still have never tried this remedy. Wehave, therefore,arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chi- cago ‘for a special offer of a trial bottle at 25 cents instead of the $1.00 bottle as regularly sold. We offer this trial bottle with our recommendation and assur- ance that just as soon as the patient washes his itching skin, this mild liquid will take the itch away instantly.
