THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER PUBLISHED EYERY AFTERNOON EXCEPT SUNDAY BY THE BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISHING CO. E. H. DENU. C. E. CARSON. A. G. RUTLEDGE, Editor. Entored In the Postoffice at Bemld)l, Minnes class matter, SUBSCRIPTION---85.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE Bro. Welles, of the Sauk Centre Herald, pays Carlos Avery, the re- tiring executive agent of the State Game & Fish commission, a fine compliment, which concludes with the assertion that Carlos has red bair. No one but a sympathetic person would have noticed that Bro. Welles’ hair (what he has left of it) has the “sunset glow.” There are too many men who ex- pect an editor to slave in defense of their pet notions and hobbies, advocate their views against the strongest apposition, and then coolly withhold their business sup- port, by which alone a small news- paper can live. Anda few of these “sharks” even attempt to dictate the policy of the paper. This class, thank the good Lord, is but little in evidence in Bemidiji. The Sauk Centre Herald com- ments thusly on certain efforts of the county option folks: “The Herald is in receipt of a formal call for a local-option conven- tion to be held in the cities in March, the call being accompanied by the request that it be published. If printed in full this document would occupy half a column. The fact that the local-optionists are trying to play the country publish- ers for suckers the same as the other political parties do, is evidence that they are «getting wise to the game.’ Advertising rates furnisheed on application.” Judge Stanton has 2 most pleasant way of announcing his candidacy for the judgeship of the fifteenth judi- cial district. Quoting the Duluth News-Tribune he states that politics are distasteful to him and he prefer- red to retain his judicial position and leave the political scramble to those who like that sort of life. The judge could fill the bill as state leader all right, but are there enough republicans, that could be convinced of this fact and induced to vote the Democratic ticket? Beinga north Minnesota man, this half of the state would surely not be neglected, were he governor. BY THE WAY.

OBJECTED TO TAFT -RULE Had Recently Complained to His Home Government of Alleged Bad Treat ment Because He Was Not Permit- ted to Mingle With the Ambassa: dors at the ‘Diplomatic Reception at the White House. Madrid, Jan. 1{.—The Marquis de Villalobar, tne Spanish minister to ‘Washington, has been transferred to Lisbon. It is expected that the mar- quis will'leave Washington immediate- Iy to take up the duties of his new post. : The removal of the marquis is due to the fact that he complained to the home government of alleged bad treatment he had received in Wash: ington. President Taft, on Tuesday night of last week, inaugurated the blue velvet cord at a White House re- ception. The function of the cord, stretched in the blue room, was to separate the ministers from the am- bassadors and when Marquis de Villa- lobar was not permitted to take his place on the side of the ambassadors he left the White House in a huff and immediately complained by cable to Madrid and asked that the same treat- ment he had received be accorded to the American officials at the Madrid court. Marquis de Villalobar has been min- ister from Spain only a short time, succeeding Senor Don Romon Pina. SAYS THE STORY IS UNTRUE Marquis de Villalobar Denies Incident at Reception. ‘Washington, Jan. 1:—Marquis de Villalobar, the Spanish minister, was greatly surprised when informed that he had been transferred. “You greatly surprise me,” he said. “I do not understand it at all and there must be some mistake; don't you think it likely that your corre- spondent at Madrid is in error?” The minister was asked if anything had occurred here which might have led to his transfer. In reply Marquis de Villalobar denounced as absolutely untrue the story to the effect that he had been the leading figure in an un- pleasant episode at the recent diplo- matic reception at the White House. On this occasion, the story ranm, the Spanish minister was separated with the other ministers from the foreign ambassadors and that he resented this discrimination. QUAIL STARVING IN KANSAS Governor Asks Farmers to Supply Feed for Birds. Topeka, Kan., Jan. 1 .—Deputy fish and game wardens have been report- ing to Governor Stubbs that quail and other birds are dying in large num- bers from starvation. The ground throughout the state has been covered with snow and ice for forty-two days and the birds are unable to find grain or ground seeds to eat. The governor issued a proclamation calling on farmers, and especially chil- dren, to hunt out the places where the birds stay and to scatter grain near the places for the birds to eat. The quail and other game birds are very valuable in destroying noxious insects, in addition to their edible qualities, and the governor wants them pro- tected. Funerai of Gardinal Satolll, _Rome.

Oliver P. Morton, war governor of Indiana, is the other citizen who has been hon- ored by the Hoosier state in the same manner. The unveiling was made the occa- sion of an imposing ceremony. Cap- tain John P.

Rome, Jan. 12.—In an effort to se- cure support for his plan for interna- tional limitation of armaments it is semi-officially announced that King Victor of Italy has negotiations pend- Ing for conferences with all impor- tant European rulers during next spring and summer.

Unlike the very small countries, which have absolutely no hope of competing suc- cessfully with their greater rivals, it is compelled to strain every resource toward equality with the latter.
