It must be admitted that the ballon racers have a high purpose in life. Crow Wing county has a town by the name of Graft, but from whom the map doesn’t say. Some of the radiators haven’t any more steam than the democratic candidate for governor. Now it is reported that Dr. Crippen may not be hanged. Cheer up, the report may not be true. Two weeks from today is election and the state campaign has become almost as exciting as a game of croquet, We are suspicious about Duluth’s second crop of strawberries but willingly admit that she will harvest two crops of ice. Philadelphia devoured the Chicago Cubs and on Saturday Minnesota’s football team goes to the Windy City on a somewhat similiar mission. A Siegerville, Pa., man made $240 out of twenty cents by planting peach trees. If he bhad made $240 look like twenty cents it wouldn’t have beea so astonishing. As a friend, we suggest to Mr Begsley that if he ever attends a social function where Jack John- son happens to be one of the en- tertainers that he avoid jerking Jack’s tights. VOTE FOR THIS. The Pioneer urges that at the com- ing general election on November 8 that every person voting be sure to cast his ballot for the 1-15 mill tax amendment to the constitution for reforestation. If adopted about $72,000 will be annually raised with which the forestry board must buy at not over $3 per acre forestry land for the state, and produce and maintain forest thereon according to forestry principles. Most of the money will each year be spent for labor; the future will get the timber and Minnesota will at once rank with the foremost Ameri- can states in forestry. READ MR. HAYNER'S LETTER. In the advertising columns of this issue of the Pioneer will be found a letter from Mr, Hayner— Royal C., and county attorney, in which he once more imparts to the public the astounding informa- tion that James L. George is a conniving, scheming, terrible tool ot the interests. Mr. Hayner has done many un- wise things and Las made macy unjust statements and has spoken many untruthful things since the rimary election Jeft him a de- feated candidate with a delirious determination to ‘‘stick” on his present job, but nothing. Royal has so far doiz has excited quite the contempt or aroused so much genuine indignation as his silly, shallow, shameless shouts of in- sinuation atout as clean and un trammeled a candidate as it has been the good fortune of Beltrami county to designate as a proper person to be intrusted with the importaut duties of auditor A GOOD TIME TO BE CAUTIOUS. Actuated by a general demand from the business interests of Be- midji, the city council has decided not to hold the big stick of a $1,000 license over the saloonkeepers. ' The council also indicated that it had reconsidered its d:termination not to grant additioral lig1or license and assured an applicant for a new license that he would be taken care of. This appears to be tending.- to-| | ward a rather free band ‘or the liquor men, compared with the earlier indications of the city law- makers to double the license fee and to limit saloons here to the present number. Under the present status of affairs it is clean to an unprejudiced mind that it is dangerous to take - too many chances along this line, [tis true that the council stands stjuarely and firmly behind the mayor and the chief of police in an effort to rid the town of the illegal sale of intoxi- cants, but it is an occurrence of every meeting of council to have some reliable person tell of the pres- ent sale of intoxicants where no license exists. Last night thq Met- ropolitan club was mentioned in this connection. It appears to be the will of the business men thatas many saloons as can exist, and the number is already large, on a licence of $500 shall be permitted to do business, despite the mutterings of the Indian bureau. The Pioneer believes that this is no time for the soft pedal. If a .| town of well conducted, orderly sa- loons is to be obtained extreme care in their present regulation should be exercised. If saloons are desirable, it will not profit the city much to gain a few license fees at alow figure only to run the danger of having the govern- ment ultimately close all places where liquor is sold. WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY “Drys" Miffed at Ballinger's Order. It appears from the decision of Secretary Ballinger that there will be little further effort on the part of the Federal Indian department to enforce the treaty provision as to white men. Men who have votes and profierty have a pull which gives preference before a great executive department of the government. At the same time the secretary affirms that the treaties are valid and under them the government has the full legal right to close the saloons.— Minnesota Issue, Anti-Saloon League Paper. "All Eyes on Brainerd." The Northern Minnesota Develop: ment association will hold its third meeting in Brainerd, and coming just before the meeting of the legislature, when legislation de- sired by Northern Minnesota must! be formulated, it will be much the most important meeting that this association will ever hold. For this reason, every issse of every newpaper in Northern Minnesota contains laud- atory notices of the meeting calling attention to its extreme importance to every citizen of Northern Minne- sota, and urging all to remember the slogan, “‘All Eyes on Braiverd.” —DBrainerd Dispatch. Knock No. 2 For Mr. Ballinger. They will be calling Secretary Bal- linger Mr. Facing-Both-Ways yet. His latest deliverance have been read like a tariff speech made to help at the same time Sena- tor Beveridge in Indiana and Sena- tor Lodge in Massachusetts, He rescinded certain executive orders, but the treaty law remains, and his agents say they are instructed to en- force it the same as before. This treaty law forbids any sale of liquor in certain defined territory on the whisky to Indians question seems to formerly Indiand. Probably it was vot intended to be enforced against selling to whites and would not have been, if it could have been enforced against selling to Indians. It never has been so obeyed or enforced, and 'the federal governmént is eutirely within_its right and duty in enforcing it against sales to everybody as the only means to protect the Indians, until congress repeals it. Let us see congress repeal it, with the W. C. T. U. roosting in the galleries. To be perfectly frank about the business, at the risk of hurting local feelings, enterprising persons find it recessary in their business to ply; Indiaus with liquor. In no other way can they come into prompt pos- session of land and other property which they think themselves better qualified to manage than the present Indjan owners.” That is the time honored way of trading with the un- tamed child of the forest. The federal government seems bound to break it up in northern Minnesota, in the teeth of the whole brewing and saloon-, townsite and farm land industry of the state— Minneapolis Tribune.
