PREAGHER A BELIEVER IN CHURGH ADVERTISING Says Owes His Success to \Publicity— The Soo has been making an in- ventory of the Rainy River property at Deer River for some time and it is said that as soon as this inventory is comp leted, the actual transfer will take place.

MICHIGAN BAD, SAYS SERO sale of liquor had increased so rapidly that the Indians were shipped home on the afternoon train. No apprehension is felt that the ones coming to the Fair this year will meeta like fate as they are of the better class also because of the strict rules against selling liquor to Indians.

I have attracted them with moving pictures, hot suppers, pink teas and flowers and flags. If I have had any degree of success in Spokane it is because of the liberal constructed.

SOLDIERS TO GUARD WOMEN Will Prevent Possible Demonstration of Suffragettes at St. Paul Congress. St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 24—Special to the Pioneer)—The battle cry, “Votes for Women!” will not be heard in the second National Conservation Congress in St. Paul, September 5 to 9 if the officers of the organiza- tion can help it. Bernard N. Baker of Baltimore, president of the organization has barred the women, who want to vote, on the ground that their organiza- tion is political. After the delegates to the St. Paul congress are seated in the auditorium, the remaining seats of which there will be several thousand, will be for the public and there will be no way to keep the women out of them. United States soldiers from Fort Sunelling will be on guard and should any beligerent woman shout “Votes for Women,” the soldiers will know what to do. Crookston Mass Meeting Endorses Former Chaplain for House. Crookston, Aug. 24—At a largely attended mass meeting here last evening O. N. Lindh, a prominent merchant of Lengby and fcrmer chaplain of the lower house in the Minnesota legislature, was unani- mously endorsed as a candidate for the legislature. Mr. Lindh said he would file at once. It is expected that another candi- date will also file from the west or southeast end of the county mak- ing four candidates for the Repub- lican nomination, Holton and Marin having already filed. Notice to Contractors.

The congressman was accompan- ied through the mill by Judge Gorham Bowers of Renville and Judge Morrison of Northwood. Palmer Shows Skin of Big Bear. A. B. Palmer has placed in his show window the tanned skin of the black bear shot at Rice Lake about three weeks ago. The bear wasa large one and weighed more than 400 pounds.. The bear was killed in the afternoon by some men who were haying on a dry swamp. The meat was later served up in Jesse Harrison’s resturant in the form of sandwiches. The skin makes a beauti- ful robe and with the head attached gives a good idea of the size of the bear. Pryor Files For Court Commissioner. C. J. Pryor has announced him- self tor court commissioner. Mr. Pryor has been a resident of Be- midji for some time and was form- erly manager of the Pioneer, More recently he has been engag- ed in the real estate business with office in the Miles building: Notice. 1 On May first 1909, my wife left; my board and bed without any reason and I will not’ pay any bills contracted by her.

Any man who handlesa machine like that should take his thirty days, whether he is a banker or the president of the United States.” Dr. Gilmore, who also drives a “|fast car said: “I am not familiar with the merits of the ‘case, but if he was speeding just for a joy ride thirty days was not too much. High speed is all right in certain cases, but not for joy riding.” Judge Spooner, “When a man is so wealthy that a money fine is no punishment, a jail sentence is the only kind that will make him obey the law in the future.” Gus Scherberg, expert chauffer and mechanic at the Jewett garage, says “That sentence was all right. Put all the needless speeders in jail.” gt 2 Hires Attorney; Mind Quickly Improves. The Stillwater Gazette says editorially: *“After admitting he was guilty of exceeding the speed limit and serv- jail and workhouse at St. Paul, Frank W. Waterman, president of the Ramsey County bank, has discovered that on his way. from Minneapolis to St. Paul the steering gear was very much out of order; that he traveled at a slow rate of speed and that there was a fog; he also saw a large van or heavy vehicle in the stacet and as he approached the same he at- tempted to steer toward the right ing a number of days in the county ; MNECENATIA/IC DA the above statements to the judge in the morning when he admitted he was guilty of violating the speed ordinance.” WOMEN AID IN HER DEFENSE Girl Who Killed Alleged Betrayer “" - Placed on Trial. New Orleans, Aug. 24.—With the courtroom crowded with scores of women, representatives of the Wo- men’s Era club and others interested in the case, Mamie McLaughlin, aged eighteen, charged with murder in the first- degree in connection with the death of Hugh Smith, Jr., a wealthy resident of New Orleans, was placed on trial here. - - Miss McLaughlin alleges Smith be- trayed her and then cast her aside. The members of the Women’s Era club, an organization of 1,500 women, rallied to the defense of Miss Me- Laughlin: soon after she shot Smith. Other women became interested and a fortune has been donated toward the defense of the unfortunate girl. WILL RETURN TO ~TESTIFY “Big Dan” Coughlin, Fugitive for Ten Years, Seeks Immunity. Chicago, Aug. 24.—Thomas McGuire, nead of a detective agency, declares “Big Dan” Coughlin is working in a railroad construction camp in British Honduras and were he given immunity from prosecution would return to Chicago to testify about alleged’ jury bribing by Illinois Central raiiroad of- fieials. Coughlin is a fugitive from justice. It is charged he represented railroad officials in the' alleged at- tempt to bribe a jury in 1899 in an Illinois Central case and that since then the officials of the railroid have |- paid his wife $75 a month and other big corporations are the chief suf- ferers. Itis difficult to give figures on the timber losses, which may reach $10,000,000. It is estimated that more than 1,500 settlers in Montana, Idaho and Washington have lost their homes and everything in them. The present summer has been one of the dryest ever known. Fires lighted by settlers to clear lands and by sparks from locomotives, have speedily become giants of destruc- tion, k Chief Johnstone Gets New Honor.
