The Mississippi has frozen up a month earlier than usual and Colonel T. B. for the first time in his hfe. Minnesota clashes with the Michigan football team at Ann Arbor on saturday and already the seiswograph is beginning to show signs of nervousness. The man who, it is believed, shot the editor of the Devils Lake, N. D Inter Ocean has been arrested, which goes to show that even editors can not be shot with impunity. It is reported that Attorney Gener- al Simpson will attempt to replace Svdney Anderson as congressman from the first district in 1912 and as the first district turned down James A. Tawney it may stand for even Simpson. THE PIONEER AND THE SALOONS. If the saloons of Bemidji were take unaware; by the government’s action 1n shutting off their source of supply, itis not the fault of the Pioneer. As long ago as October, 25 quoting W. E. Johnson, the Pio- neer printed the following, which afterward appeared in the city dailies: “The Cass Lake dealers and aLL SALOON MEX IN THE FORBIDDEN TERRITORY WILL NOT BE SELLING LIQUOR MUCH LONGER, Those inter ested may as well be prepared to hear something drop any day.” This warning was reiterated in subsequent issues. We had no in- tention of printing anything for the express protection of the saloon keepers but we printed it as a matter of news and as such the saloon men were welcome to it. We feel that when a paper, necessarily handicapped by gathering facilities, puts into print for the first time news of such great importance, it should be given credit for it, and in this particular instance if the liquor dealers had heeded our warning their wine cellars would be filled and the Pioneer would have a vote of thanks. On that point, however, the Pio- neer is satisfied if the saloonkeepers news are. WOMEN TO VOTE IN WASHINGTON. One hundred and thirty thousand women were added to the voting strength of the state of Washington by the adoption of an amendment for equal suffrage to the constitution at the election on November 8. Formal announcement will be made by Governor Hay within 10 days or as socn as the official canvass of the re:urns have been completed. Wcmen, who are taxpayers, also are eligible for jury duty. The women of Spokane probably will cast their first votes at an election to ratify the new charter, which provides for a commission form of government. Mrs. May Arkwright Hutton of Spokane, president of the Washing- ton Political Equality league, enter- tained her co-workers and a large number of advocates of equal suf- frage at a banquet the evening of November 10, when it was announc- ed that November 24 had .been set aside as a special day of thanks- giving for the newly enfranchised women of the state. Mrs Hutton said: “I attribute the success of the movement largely to the broad- minded ideas of the men of Washing- ton who stand for a square deal in all things. Another reason for our success is the fact that the manage- ment of the campaign has been at all times under the control of the state. Minnie J. Reynolds, formerly of Colorado, did excellent work and to her the women of this state owe i much for their great victory polls last Tuesday. A “Arrangements are now “under way for a celebration in honor of adding the fifth state to the suffrage banner of states that ‘will be the most remarkable demonstration of the campaign in this state, or in any part of the Northwest.” In Colorado three women were elected to the legislature. l WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY I Was it Gray, or Blue?

Room for Doubt. A Department of the Interior official is quoted as expressing the belief that seven-tenths of the people of Minnesota are in favor of closing the saloons in the northern part of the state. That official ought to visit Bemidji, Cass Lake, Detroit and a few Northern Minnesota towns.— St. Paul Pioneer Press. Those City Chaps! Those who are contemplating a huntiog trip this fall want to re- member that owing to the great num- ber of licenses issued and the army of inexperienced men in the . woods carrying high power guns they are in more danger than they would have been in a battle line during the Revo lutionary War. Lookout! Boys, don’t let them take you for a deer. Some of those city chaps would shoot at a shadow and if they didn’t see one they would shoot once in a while for fear there might be one there.— Cass County Pioneer. Koll and Mackenzie Boosters. M. N. Koll is trying to “line up” Cass Lake for a turpentine factory. Every town needs an energetic, pub- lic spirited, investigator and booster like Mr. Koll. It is difficult to find many men like him, men, who are good boosters and at the same time are willing that someone else should receive some appreciation and pre- ferment against their fellows. Mackenzie of Bemidji is another such man and our own A. M. Greely was another.—Big Fork Compass. | When a cold becomes settled in the system, it will take several days’ treatment to cure it, and the best remedy to use is Chamber- lain’s Cough Remedy. It wili cure quicker than any other, and also leaves the system in a natural aud healthy condition. Sold by Barker’s Drug Co. ST. BERNARD DOGS. These Famous Life Saving Animals Are Said-to Be Mongrels. Among American tourists in Switzer- land there is much rivalry for securing “real” St. Bernards to take home with them. They evidently do not know that the St. Bernards are mongrels. The original St. Bernards saw the light toward the end of the fourteenth century. The mother was a Wallis shepherd dog, the sire a mongrel of a Great Dane and a Spanish mountain mastiff. In the winter of 1812 nearly all the dogs lost their lives In the snow. In 1816 the last St. Bernard dog died. But & monk of Martingny had a mon- grel St. Bernard, and this was crossed with Wallis sheep dogs. The breed- -ing being done in scientific manner, the present race of St. Bernards, though mongrel, like the first, is better and stronger than the old ones, it is said. The railways have made use of St. Bernards almost unnecessary now, yet they continue on the old stand in win- ter when the snow lies high. Only the male dogs are used for rescuing -men in distress. They are followed by men on snowshoes, who carry provisions. Each of the older dogs has one or more young companions, which he teaches the business.—Boston Post. The Practical Man. Our idea of a practical man is one cigar given to him than a five center named for him.—Dallas News. Truth is of no value unless it is-ex- emplified in conduct. and over again for the past-36 years;; but itis always a welcome story to those in search of health—There is nothing in the world that cures coughs ‘and colds as quickly as Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.

This is what he says he saw a Hindu wizard:do in‘a club in Lucknow: “He took a board and placed it on four glass goblets, thus. elevating it from the-floor.” A: youngster sitting on the board was requested to place his hands together, palms up, Then the Juggler took a glass of water and poured it .into ‘the outstretched hands of the boy. In the meantime the boy bad ‘béen mesmerized, and his atten- tion “was fixed on @ point indicated by the magician. Gradually the water turned green in color and then devel- opel into a jelly which increased. in density.until it became as-solid.as a stone. . Out of the center of this ap- peared’ ‘the “hread of a snake, which gradually developed until in the place of the water there appeared a hissing reptile. I was awazed, I can assure you, but the trick was not yet com- pleted. Hitting the reptile -upon the head with his wand, the juggler took it up carefully and placed it back in the glass. As we looked it became transformed into a jelly, which in turn melted into a greenish colored water. Clearer and clearer’ became -the fluid until it was of its original color. and then the juggler placed it to his lips and drank the entire contents.

CLOTHIERS BANKING IN_ ENGLAND, Starfed by Lisndon Goldemiths In thy /. “Seventsenth Century. The business of banking was not in- | trodiiced into England until the seven- teently’ centnury, when it began to be undertaken by goldsmiths in London; who appéar to have borrowed it from Holland. It was attacked, as innova- tlons ‘coinmonly are. Mr. Gilbart in his “History and Principles of Bank- ing"/quotes from a . pamphlet-publish- ed in 1676, entitled “The Mystery of the New Fashioned Goldsmiths “or Bankers Discovered.” a passage that may/be reproduced: “Much about’ the same time—the. time of the civil commotion—the gold- smiths (or new fashioned bankers) be- gan to receive the rents of gentlemen’s estates remitted to town and to allow them’ and others who put cash into their- hands 'sonie interest for it if it remained but a. single month in their hands or even a lesser time. There was a great allurement to put- money into their hands, which would bear interest till the-day -they wanted it, and they could also draw it out by £100 or £50; etci, at a time as they wanted it with infinitely less trouble than if they had lent it out on either real or personal security. The conse- quence was that it quickly brought a great quantity of cash into their hands, so that the chief or greatest of them was now enabled to supply Cromwell with money in advance on the revenues as his ‘occasion required upon great advantages to themselves.” - Not a Disease. > “I can't understand my husband doctor. 1 am afraid there. is :some- thing terrible the matter with bim.” “What are his symatoms?” “Well, 1 often talk to him for half an hour at a time, and when I get through he hasn't the least idea what e been suying.” “Don’t worr husband.
