Pioneer DOINGS AMONG BEMIDJI'S GCOUNTRY NEIGHBORS Live Correspondents of the Pioneer Write the News from Their Localities. Cunningham. March 6. A gentleman representing an Ilowa Nursery, made each settler in this vicinity a business call the past week. Martha Wilson, librarian for the Minne- sota library commission, made us a pleasant call recently. She gave us some valuable information concerning the privi- leges granted each community as soon as their needs were discovered or made known. The new rural route mail carrier of this circuit, had the misfortune to lose one of his horses recently. Claude Fish lost a valuable yearling, the animal having become entangled in its tie rope. Seed catalogs are in great demand, as most everybody is planning a “model garden.” The Stone tomato, raised by Mrs. Nic Johnson, one of our neighbors, took the premium at the fair held at Northome last fall. Robert Walker, who has been in Min- neapolis for some time, has just returned and is making plans to build on his lots on the shore of beautiful Island Lake. The school, taught by Catherine Cun- ningham, will give a basket social on the evening of March 26th, the proceeds to be used in purchasing a school library. Cunningham Bros. are planning a season’s work in manufacturing lath and shingles. Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Cunningham are visiting at Orth, at the home of Mrs. Cun- ningham’s parents. Hazel Thompson, who, with her mother and brother, spent several weeks at Be- midji and Island Lake, last summer and fall, in a vain endeavor to secure health, passed into the *‘great beyond"” some days ago. Her body was laid to rest beside her mother. BLACKDUCK Blackduck, March 6.—(Special cor- respondence of the Pioneer.) The fire company was called out Sun- day afternoon to extinguish a smould- ering fire around the chimney of the Stuart house. C. W. Jewett's new Buick car, a Model 10, four passenger, arrived in Bemidji last Wednesday, and Mr. Jewett has been demonstrating for two or three days. The Missionary society of the Presby- terian church will give a “pink tea” in the church basement Wednesday after- noon. Everyone is cordially invited to attend. Lee French had the misfortune to have his ankle badly crushed by a rolling log last Friday morning. The foot has been placed in a plaster cast and Mr. French is resting as comfortably as possible under the circumstances. The play, “A King's Daughter,” as given by the young ladies of the Y. L. B,, wasa fine success in every way. A large and enthusiastic audience greeted the three acts of the play and the splendid music of Garwood's orchestra. The milkmaid's drill, by twelve young ladies in costumes of pink and blue, carrying milking pails was heartily received. The living pictures, presented as tableaus, “Winter,” by Miss Mary Ratican; “Spring,” Miss Ella Her- manson; “Meditation,” Miss Hattie Swan son and ‘‘Motherhood,” by Mrs. Barack- man and daughter, Dorothy, were very beautiful, and two characters from the play, “The Flower of the Family” and “Our Artist,” were loudly applauded. The hard work and effort of the girls to make the public reading room a success, has succeeded in arousing au interest and enthusiasm in others that should always be back of a public enterprise. Notice. A meeting of the Modern Brother- hood of America will meet in the I. 0. O. F. Hall Thursday evening, March 10th. All members are re- quested to be present. Business of importance will be transacted. —E. H. Cornwall, Pres. VICTIM OF TUBERCULOSIS “Jake” Schaefer, Noted Billiardist, Dead at Denver. Denver, March 9.—“Jake” Schaefer, the noted billiard player, died here of tuberculosis. Schaefer was perhaps the greatest billiard player in fhe history of the “gentleman’s game.” He repeatedly held the world’s championship at 18.1 and 18.2 balk line billiards, He was particularly noted for his gameness and nerve. Schaefer was born in Milwaukee in 1855. ‘Soon afterward his family moved to Leavenworth, where he learned his first billiards. His step- father, named Berg, kept a billiard hall and it was there Schaefer learned the rudiments of the game. Stranded Vessel a Wreck. Gallipolis, O., March 9 —The river packet Virginia, which stranded dur- ing the high water at Willow Grove, W. Va., forty miles above here, has broken in two and will be a complete loss. The steamer went into a corn- field during a heavy fog and when the water receded was left high and dry. The boat was owned by {he Pittsburg and Cincinnati Packet company and was valued at §40,000.

We absolutely Guaranteed AGAIN ATTEMPT | T0 END STRIKE Philadelphia Business Men Renew Eiforts. MOVEMENT IS CITYWIDE Association Now at Work Includes Practically Every Concern of Any Standing in the “City of Brotherly Love”—Number of Workers Affect- ed by General Strike Order Not Yet Definitely Known. Philadelphia, March 9.—All Phila- delphia hopes that the citywide move- ment begun by the United Business Men’s association to bring to a quick end the great labor conflict that has kept the ‘“city of brotherly love” in a turmoil for more than two weeks, will meet with greater success than the ef-! fort made last week by the same body. This organization asked the Philadel- phia Rapi@ Transit company and May- or Reyburn to arbitrate the differences existing between the company and the men, but was given no satisfaction. The association, which includes practically every business man of any standing in Philadelphia, will now en- large the movement by taking in other organizations that stand for the prog- ress of the city. Business, especially in the central part of the city, has suffered to an extent not known in years and it is feared that the heavy spring and Easter trade will be seriously dis- turbed if an end is not soon brought to the industrial war. Figures Widely Divergent. Although it is now four days since the general strike order to all union workers in sympathy with the fight of the trolley men’s union went into effect it is still impossible to state ac- curately the strength of the movement. Widely divergent assertions continue to be made by both sides in the con- troversy. The union leaders say that the 125, 000 workers they had expected to walk out are all on strike and have been Jjoined by at least 20,000 more men and women who heretofore were unorgan- ized. The police authorities, on the other hand, declare that a careful compila- tion of the reports of a thorough can- vass shows less than 20,000 on strike. The police back up their statement by a detailed list of the many concerns affected. Independent investigators, who have also made canvasses, say that while the police figures are fairly accurate for the establishments represented, many occupations have been over- looked. It is also pointed out that the number of people who will be affected by the going out of certain branches of the various industries is not suffi- ciently considered by the director of public safety in compiling his figures, although the latter asserts he has made allowance for all such cases. OPPOSED TO LOCAL OPTION Samuel Gompers Declines to Speak ¢o Chicago “Dry” Gathering. Chicago, March 9.—Samuel Gom- pers, president of the American Fed- eration of Labor, refused an invitation to speak for the local option cause. In explaining his reason for declining Mr. Gompers said that the experience of most cities has shown prohibition to be a failure. “I could not consent to endorse local option because I am not in sympathy with the movement,” said Mr. Gom- pers. “Proper regulation of Hquor traffic 18 much more effective than the abol- ishment of saloons under the local op- tion or prohibition laws. Experience of cities both in the United States and other countries has shown this.” HAD $11,000 ON HER PERSON Aged Woman Carried Twenty Pounds of Money in Belts. St. Cloud, Minn, March 9.—The story of the finding of $11,000 on the person of the late Mrs. Catherine Fre- vel, aged seventy-eight years, of St. Martin after her death was confirmed when Herman Terhaar, cashier of the New Munich State bank, came to St. Cloud with the money in a satchel. Mr. Terhaar is named in the woman’s will as executor of the estate. The money, which the woman had secreted about her person in three belts, weighed just an even twenty pounds. Girl Saved by Quick Wit. ~ Paterson, N. J, March 9.—Elizabeth Saal, a sixteen-year-old girl, told in court how her quick wit saved her from a brutal attack at the h:znds of Frank Pippe, who had seized her by the throat while she was alone in the shop. Having no other means of at- tracting attention she hurled a hand- #ul of change against the window. The breaking of the window brought a po- liceman. ENRICO CARUSO. Noted Singer, in Fear of Black Hand, Guarded by Many Police. THAEATENED BY BLACK HAND Two Score Police Guard Enrico Caru- so, the Tenor. New York, March 9.—Enrico Caruso was guarded by more New York po- licemen than are usually assigned to protect a visiting president of the United States:as he sang the role of Enzo Gimaldo in the opera “La Gio- conda” at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Captain Gloster, chief of the Italian detective bureau, with two of his detectives, escorted Caruso from the Hotel Knickerbocker to the Brook- Iyn theater in Lafayette avenue. The street in front of the opera house was patrolled by six mounted policemen, while thirty’seven other members of the police force were scat- tered through'the auditorfum. This force was on hand to see that the singer came to no physical injury at the hands of those who had threat- ened to take his life if he did not yield to blackmail in the sum of $15,000. DR, HYDE RELEASED ON A HEAVY BOND Furnishes One Hundred Thou- sand Dollars for Appearance. | Kansas City, March 9.—Dr. B. C. Hyde, charged with murder and at- tempted murder in the Swope case, was released from the county jail after furnishing bond in the sum of $100,000- Hyde’s attorney agreed to have the physician in court on “April 11, the date set for the trial upon the charges contained in the recently returned in- dictments—murdering Colonel Thomas ‘W. Swope, Colonel Moss Hunton and Chrisman Swope and poisoning eight members of the household of Mrs. Lo- gan O. Swope. Dr. Hyde left the courtroom in com- pany with his attorneys and imme- diately went to a telephone and called up his wife. Then he hurried home. First degree murder is bailable in Missouri in a case in which the charge is based upon circumstantial evidence, if the county prosecutor and the court before whom the prisoner is arraigned agree that the circumstances warrant the release of the defendant. POPE CABLES ROCKEFELLER Congratulates Oil King on His Latest Endowment Plan. London, March 9.—A dispatch from Rome says the pope has telegraphed John D. Rockefeller congratulating him on his latest plan to endow his great philanthropic organization. The pontiff expressed the belief that the proposed plan entitled the originator to the gratitude of all mankind. Discussing the work of Rockefeller and the other American philanthropists in his Lenten address to the cardinals the pope said: “Although these millionaires are Protestants I give them my blessing because all who do good deserve God’s blessing.” YA ———— e vt o g e AYER’S HAIR VIGOR Hair falling out?

CLAIMS T0 BE A LEGAL CONCERN Standard 0il Replies to Gov- ernment Swuit, BRIEF FILED IN COURT Keynote of the Defenze Is the Sc Called Preservation of the “Rights of Individual Citizens of the Uniteo States”—History of the Company Gone Into at Great Length by the At- torneys Responsible for Document ‘Washington, March 9.—The Stand ard Oil company has filed in the su preme court of the United States a brief in opposition to the attempt ot the government to dissolve the cor- poration as violating the Sherman anti-trust law. The document comes as a prelude to oral argument Monday and is the work of D. T. Watson, John M. Freeman and Ernest C. Irwin. The brief for the government has not yet been filed. The keynote of the defense is the 80 called preservation of the “rights of individual citizens of the United States.” The issue, according to the paper filed, is the charge made in the petition, denied in the answer and re- asserted in the replication, that the seven individual defendants, John D. Rockefeller, William R. Rockefeller, John D. Archbold, Oliver H. Payne, Henry M. Flagler, Charles M. Pratt and Henry M. Rogers, combined and conspired, and continued to combine and conspire at the time the petition was filed, to restrain interstate trade in oil and to gain a monopoly of the traffic. The brief asserts that the circuit court of the United States for the Eastern district of Missouri, whose adverse decree the defendants seek to overturn, held that solely because these individual joint owners of a group of non-competitive properties engaged for forty years in private trade, in- stead of continuing to hold through trustees controlled by the seven de- fendants, changed in 1899, as the brief says, “the method of holding their properties by conveying them to the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and that such change was a violation of the Sherman anti-trust act.” Assert Business Is Lawful. ‘This decree is complained of as be- ing unjust to the men who, according to the brief, “were a lawful group, lawfully doing business,” and who, after what is described as a mere con- veyance and solely by reason thereof, became a ‘“group of lawless conspira- tors,” it is charged. The claim that the seven individuals are engaged in lawful business is em- phasized. “The Standard Oil business as it existed in 1906 and still exists,” says.the brief, “was the natural de- velopment and outgrowth of the busi- ness begun in 1862 and steadily pur- sued by the Rockefellers and others. By untiring energy, with infinite skill, with abundant capital and.the steady reinvestment of early profits these men and their associates created out of an entirely new, unique and unprecedent- ed production of crude oil the new, universally used and cheapest illu- minant the world has ever known. “By creative skill they secured from refuse oil valuable by-products. They invented the huge reservoirs for stor- ing oil—the combined pipe line sys- tem which gathers up and carries the natural products—the tank cars would carry the refined products. They cre- ated the export trade in ofl, transport- ing it in ships of their own construc- tion and selling it in Asia, India, Ja- pan, China, Russia and all Europe. They devised the trading stations— the tank delivery wagons—and used every means to cheapen the product and the quality. From 1962 to 1903 (forty-four years) the work went on. They took the risk of the failure in production, of destruction by fire and tempest, besides all the ordinary risks of trade. They met all emergencies with competent skill and sufficient funds.” OLEO PROBE COMES NEXT District Attorney Sims Ready to Begin Investigation. Chicago, March 9.—United States District Attorney Edward W. Sims and his assistant, James H. Wilker- son, who have been in Washington conferring with Attorney General Wickersham regarding the inquiry now being made by the federal situa- tion in Chicago, have returned. Mr. Sims immediately upon reaching his office called for Assistant District Attorney Robert Childs, who has had charge of the investigation into the oleomargarine industry in this city. The two talked over plans for further inquiry, which probably will be start- ed by the grand jury in a day or two. GLEASON LOSES LARGE FEE Former Counsel for Thaw Enjoined From Bringing 8Suit.
