The Daily Pioneer has completed arrangements whereby it is to be’ protected on all of the big telegraph news of the state, nation and world. In this service telegraph and tele- phone wires are used ‘and often at a considerable cost. D OYOOOOODOOODOO G OO SOOOLOBGOOOGOGOOOG For "instance any one who has had occasion to use the telephone line to St. Paul knows how expensive it is to carry on a conversation for so great a distance. Yet it is a common thing for the Pioneer to talk for several minutes at a stretch to this city in order to get the news. Yesterday we weére able to tell our readers of the pro- gress of the Deitz trial almost up to the hour of going to press by using the telephone. A few days ago a telegraphic order to St. Cloud brought back a 200 work message on the condition of a widely known and popular 'clergymaxl. The | tele- phone brought details of a fi}'e at Grand Rapids and with modest pride, we claim the Pioneer’s account of this fire was.the ; most printed in any paper ' outside of Grand Rapids. It also was the te_le—‘ phone which told of the capture of a trick bear not far from Thief River Falls. These things cost money, but the Pioneer is trying to.be a news- paper, and its prosperity lndicates that it is succeeding. S —— It is no wonder that it hailed, snowed and;blew in seven dif- directions yesterflayA Min- mneapolis was defeated, 13 to 4 and St. Paul, 20 to 8. Roosevelt denies that he will hunt big game in the artics in 1912, much to the dismay of certain persons who otherwise might be elected. complete rairied, ferent The staunch launch “Betty” rode the storm in the teeth of the gale,. ond it was not false teeth, either. The state Board of Control has limited the number of blows which may be applied to boys at Red Wing to fifteen, but nothing is said as to the size of the whip or strength of the man delivering the blows. State Senator Claus J. Gunderson of Alexandria may become a candid- ate for the United States Senate in opposition ‘to Knute Nelson, and Knute is apt to find that being elect- ed senator by a popular voté is a different deal from having the legis- Aature do the job. The best joke of all would be for the High school cooking class girls to feed the hoard of education on some biscuits like father used to make when mother went to the city. JUST A HINT, - Not long ago a clean-up crusade was started in the city of Wilkes- Barre, Pennsylvania, and one cent a dozen was paid for every dozen of old tin cans turned in by the children. If prices for stray bits of paper and other rubish were to be added—but what’s the use talking about it? The Santa Fe has a new locomo- tive 121 feet long and it weighs 412 | tons. There is only one bigger thing 1|1 the world, and that is the fish 0 that got away. OHI0 WORSE THAN MINNESOTA. With -all their faults, the Minne- .sota legislators were not called upon to face indictments by a grand jury. In Ohio, old enough to know bet- ter, several members of her lawmak- ing body must answer to the serious charge of having accepted bribes. This goes to show that, public {opinion to the contrary mnotwith- standing, the Minnesota legislature might have been worse. The trouble in Ohio was brought to a crisis by detectives, with more cleverness than conscience, persuad- ing some of the lawmakers to ac- cept marked bills from them as bribes. The detectives had been em- ployed by reputable citizens who had become weary of being made a “goat” of by the legislature. The place for a man who will ac- cept a bribe is in the penitentiary, not in the legislature. Ohio is to be congratulated on her awakening and the prosecutors have our best wishes. [} FRANK DAY MAKES A GUESS. Before leaving St. Paul to return to his home at Missoula, Frank A. Day told the Twin City reporters that in his estimation Woodrow Wil- democratic party and that if he had but one guess he would hazard that one on Woodrow as the next Demo- cratic candidate. for president. Frank is getting pretty well along in years and it is only reasonable Now to presume that sometime during his life he is going to make a safe ‘pre- diction, especially when he makes so many of them. Who knows but that Woodrow really may land it. NOT ALWAYS UNINTERESTING. ' the proof readers—of the Congress- ional Record, are willing :to admit that generally speaking, there are more interesting publications. Never- the less once in awhile things crop out that are worth while, like for in- stance the following from an east- ern congressman who was supposed to be talking on reciprocity: “We are building ‘locomotives for ca. Our bridges can be built in America, ferried across the Atlantic, transported up the Nile, and flung across a river in the Sudan in less time than any European, with a We sell ironware in Birmingham, carpets in Kiderminster; - 'we pipe sewers of Scotch cities; our bicy- ‘cles distance all compétltors on the Continent; Ohio' sends" watch cases to Geneva. All this is of advantage to all parties; there is no sentiment in. They buy our wares because we make them better and at a lower cost than other people.” i Just- what his argument was, we haven’t time nor the disposition to explain. It is enough to know that America is winning commercial ‘triumphs away from the old world. HELP WANTED WANTED—Man and woman who understands farming. No child- ren. Call at West Hotel.
