The fact that Pinchot is back from Europe and refuses to talk poli- tics, is what kind of a sign? It would probably be a safe venture to say that since his talk abroad with a certain distinguished gentleman, that he will continue to be silent on this subject. Governor Gillette of California says; All prize fights are fakes, I don’t want to have anything to do with them.” Now, doesn’t that sound foolish? 'Take into considera tion too that it comes from a state officer. If prize fights are that-bad, class ’em with horse stealing and get after the offenders. The English suggest that Roose- velt patch governmental trousers at home, and that the United States is not amodel in administration. There may be truth in that, buta good rigorous change of criticisms and opinions will fit us both, Re- member that we are somewhat re- lated, thus making it a sort of a family matter, The candidacy of Albert Kaiser for state treasurer should meet with favor here. He i3 a resident of this district and it is likely that his county, Clearwater, will be in this district for years. It is good politics and neighborly to stand by home men, especially when they are as well qualified as Kaiser.—Twin Valley News. Senator Stephens introduced Archbishop Irland when he was in Crookston to install Bishop Corbett. A few davs agc, the Senator address- ed a smoker at the Crookston Con- vention and some editors charged him with introducing politics inta the convention. Wonder if they will not say he introduced politics in the inauguration ceremonies .of Bishop Corbett? The harm to Beltrami county - in. | flicted by Bemidji’s ‘string fiend! (Whoever he may be) who sent in columns of sensational “stuff” con- cerning the threatened destruction: of Bemidji by forest fires cannot be imagined, but certain it is that it will take the next five years to over- come the harmful effects of ' these absurd lies. For the paltry sum of tionalist has retarded the develop- ment of this part of the state several years. The impression has gone abroad that we are continually sur- rounded by fires only awaiting a favorable opportunity to break out and devour everything, The truth is that there is no more danger here tha1 on the prairie if ordinary care and caution is exercised. Black- duck American, Bemidji can ngver be known as an orderly city while saloon brawls, which sometimes result in death, are allowed to go unpunished. If the city council weuld revoke the license of every saloon keeper whose saloon bas caused a brawl, these men would be pretty careful of the amount of drinks sold to any one and the caaracter of their patrons. THE EDITOR’'S PLAINT. Bemidji is a live town and we hope the Pioneer is a live paper but if the two pull together a little more, we can make such a splash that outsiders will think we were the only fish in upper Minne- sota, which is just what we want them to think. The Pioneer is doing its best to give Bemidji a live news service. It tries to report the bigger things that are happening outside and all of the things that are happening ingide. We have made good. We were the only small daily in Minne- sota to carry the news of the death of Treasurer Dinehart to the readers on Wednesday. Our news is widely copied in other papers, which shows that it is valuable to their readers as well as our own. But we do not wish to blow our own horn. We want to talk of Be- midji. New it is impossible for one or two men to cover all the news that there is in a town of this size. It is likewise impassible to employ men to cover that news. Bemidji is too large for a small paper and too small far a large paper. Conse- quently every day we hear of stories that should have been published the day before, but were not because we did not know of them. » We want to make a suggestion to Bemidji people. If you know of any item—business, social, or personal— that will interest readers, please hand it to us or .phone it in. The men who have given us stories with- out being approached by-us first can be caunted on the fingersof one hand. We want everyone to feel that the Pioneer is their paper, and feel duty bound to give us news when it happens. We should not be made to dig it up—possibly three days later. If we are to be the livest possible and help Bemidji the most, you must do your share in giving us the news. We all like a joke; but seriously, is there anytking sweeter than a sweet girl graduate? Few of us admire anything we can do ourselves, One thing we all want and are dis- satisfied if we get is to be let alone. The thing that is never appreciated unless it goes wrong is a normal stomach. Edward’s Wish to Be Carried Out. London, June 11.—In accordance with the wish of the late King Edward the Duke of Connaught will succeed Earl Grey as governor general of Can- ada, probably next spring. The duke is first to make a visit to South Africa for the purpose of opening the new parliament. 8ix Hurt in Auto Crash. 8t. Louis, June 11.—Six men were injured, one of them fatally, when a heavy touring car crashed into the guard rail at the east end of Eads bridge. George lancaster of East St. Louis was the most seriously hurt, sustaining broken limbs and internal injuries. Horse Kicks Man to Death. Stillwater, Minn., June 11.—John J. Cheers, a farmer in the township of Forest Lake, three miles. south of the village of Forest Lake, was found dead in a pasture on his farm. A flesh wound near the right ear indicated that the man had been kicked by a horse.

INDICTHENT IS RETURNED True Bill Charges Violation of Statute In Furnishing Quotations to lllegal Concerns and Contains Forty-two Counts—Ten Individuals Included. in Latest Indictment of the Federal Grand Jury. Wasnington, June 11.—The federal grand jury has returned an indictment against the Western Union Telegraph company chavging it with forty-two violations of the bucket shop law of March 1, 1909, The charge is made that the West- ern Union company, by means of a telegraph wire and a ticker, aided and abetted tne conduct of a bucket shop in the District of Columbia. The forty-two counts in. the indict- ment vary only in the date on which the alleged violations are said to have accurred. An additional indictment charging the conduct of a bucket shop in the District was filed against William B. Price, Virgil P. Randolph, Henry M. Randolph, Charles T. Moorehead, Ed- ward Weldon, James A. Anderson, all of Baltimore, Md.; Thomas H. Camp- hell of Philadelphia, Joseph-G. Gatins of New York, Edward Everett Taylor and John P. Atlberger of Philadelphia. A corrective conspiracy indictment was returned against the same indi- viduals, in which Joseph T. Gatins is indicted-in proper name. A previous indictment, filed April 2, had called him Joseph F. Gatkins, and he filed a plea in abatement, to offset which the corrected indictment was filed. Gatins also tried to have the court instruct the grand jury in the hope of fore- stalling this new indictment, but was unsuccessful. The court held that such proceedings would open up an undesirable practice in this jurisdic- tion. He also declared that the court was bound to suppose the government official in charge of the grand jury would properly expound the law to that body. «It cured me,” or ¢It saved the life ot my child”, are the express- ions you hear every day about Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. This is true; the world.over where this valuable remedy has been introduced. No other madicine in use for diarrhoea or bowel complaints has received such general approval. The se- cret of the success of Chamber- lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is that it cures. Sold by Barker Drug Co. DEATH SENTENCE AFFIRMED lowa Man Convicted of Brutal Murder Must Hang.
