ENTERED AS SECOND CLASS, MAT- DIt MINN, UNDRA 168 ACT 5 MARCH 3, 1879, 40,0 In the meantime Mike Davis is singing, “The Battle Cry of Free- dom.” There is no question as to the guilt of the partridge that tries to get away. —_— Dame Rumor has it that the moon isn’t the only thing that is full in Bemidji these nights. Tomorrow is “Market Day”, but say it in a whisper so the Weather Man can’t hear you. No one will dispute Attorney Lane’s assertion that he can call a man a liar in four (different lan- guages. It develops that Uncle Ike spent $30,000 for beer in his campaign for the United States senate. Tke wasn’t elected—he floate1 in. That loud laughing noise from the direction of Puposky was Viggo Pet- erson reading how Sheriff Hazen said he was asked to do something im- proper and didn’t do it. Lest there may be some misun- derstanding regarding the matter, we hasten to say that it is not arson to permit your wife to build a fire in the stove these cool mornings. An editor who apparently had been reading the dispatches from Austin, Pa., and Hatfield, Wis., remarks: “If you live below a dam be prepared to move suddenly and in the mean- time purchase a life preserver.” THE DUMAS CASE. After weeks of preparation, a vig- orous prosecution was waged against the mayor of Cass Lake and a jury of his peers has found his guilty of an attempt at arson. The verdict may have been the cli- max so far as the public is con- cerned, but it does not by any man- ner of means mark the culmination from a legal standpoint. On the questions of law involved —points raised by Judge Spooner and from a strictly technical view sus- tained by the court—the case goes to the supreme court for final adjudica- tion, and with the prestige of favor- able color from the district bench, especially when so able a jurist as Judge McClenahan presided, Dr. Du- mas is a long ways from Stillwater. Yet that does not remove the fact that Dr. Dumas has a good start in that direction. Even though the su- preme court decrees that the trial Jjust ended was contrary to law, there still remain other charges against the physician, and it doesn’t require a vivid imagination to suspect that still other trials and tribulations ‘would be found in his pathway if all the present known obstacles were cleared away. ) It is just as true, however, that action by the supreme court favor- able to the defendant would be a great vftory for him, for it is na- tural to presume that the state made the strongest case against him tHat could be made and should the efforts of the prosecution with all the pow- er of the attorney general’s office and state fire marshal fail, and a new trial follow, the state will enter it under a serious handicap. As this paper has said before, guil- ty persons should be punished, no matter who they are or how many of them, but at the present moment congratulations are mnot in order and will not be until a final dispo- sition of the case is made. This much can be said: the inti- mation that a jury could not be se- cured in Beltrami county which would bring about a conviction has twice been proved false within the past two days. In speaking of the Dumas case, we feel that just a word as to this pa- per’s efforts to give its readers. a real reflection of the trial as it unfolded itself, may be pardoned. It has been the intention of the Pioneer to give an accurate, uncolored, unprejudiced report of the proceedings of the trial. We leave it to our readers to say how well, for a daily papet published in a town the size of Bemidji, we have succeeded, THE CIGARET SMOKER. /BY EDWIN A. NYE. Do you smoke cigarets? If you do you need mnot read this talk, because you will not believe what | say, though I am not a crank. Cigarets are poison. 1 say this not of myself. It is a chemical fact that _.the burning of tobacco and paper, together with sa- liva, distills a subtle poison that in time will undermine and wréck the strongest constitution. You do not believe it? Then it is because you do not want to believe. The- results of cigaret smoking have been as carefully not- ed as of typhoid fever. The rate of its progress is as well attested, from its inception on through its different stages, as that of any other slow poison. T It saps manhood. And, besides its effect upon the body, which it tends to make inert and limp and ineffectual, there is its effect upon the mind. The cigaret smoker is a paranoiac. That is to say, he is demented in so far as his malady is concerned. He entertains delusions concerning his habit. The poison muddles the brain. It is to be admitted that some per- sons are able to withstand the effect of cigaret poison longer than others. And some nations, being more phleg- [ matic, are legs susceptible than oth- ers. A Russian, for instance, with his sluggish nature will be poisoned more slowly than the American. Cigarets ruin American nerves. Our nervous temperaments and our climate forbid the use of artificial stimulants. We are so fashioned that all our nervous force must be used to drive our bodies and brains. We are so finely tempered that stim- ulants serve only to excite. Artificial stimulants take the spring and snap out of the American temper. We go to pieces rapidly enough without forcing. And now— . If you smoke cigarets I have said nothing that will change your opin- ion. You either do not believe the deductions of science or you fancy you are immune. ‘Which is proof of my contention. You are deluded by the habit. Sea Springs. In the very hottest distriet in the world—the shores of the Persian gulf— there is no rain whatever, nor rivers. nor oases. Yet water Is got—from the bottom of the sea. Six miles off the shallow coast there is a long line of bubbling springs of ice cold fresh water. Divers capture it in goatskin bags and retail it inland at very mod- erate prices. Even in an annual drought. which lasts from January to December, and in a temperature that hardly ever sinks below 90 degrees and often rises to oyer 110 the natives have no worry about their water supply.

Aeschylus, the celebrated Greek dramatic writer, is universally refer- red to as the “father of Greek trage- dy.” Born of a noble family at Eleu- sis, in Attica. 525 B. C., at the age of twenty-four he first presented himself at the festival of Bacchus as a com- petitor for the public prize and fifteen years afterward gained. his first vie- tory. The pre-eminence which he thus acquired was successfully maintained till 468 B.-C., when he -was-defeated in a similat contest by his younger rival, Sophocles. Aeschylus, mortified at the indignity Athens.and went to the court .of Hie- ro, king of Syracuse. Of the remain- ing ‘period of ‘his life but little is known, except that he continued to prosecute his favorjte - pursuit, and that his residence in Sicily was of some duration may be inferred from the fact that it was sufficient to af- fect the purity of his language: The thirteenth and last victory of Aeschylus was gained in 458 B. C. On the manner of his death, which was ingular, the ancient writers are unan- imous. While sitting motionless in the fields his bald head was mistaken for a stone by an eagle which hap- pened to be flying over him with a tortoise in her bill. The bird dropped the tortoise to break the shell, and the poet was killed by the blow. Aeschylus is sald to have been the author of seventy tragedies, of which only seven are now extant. Bad Shots. A certain Yankee was touring through Devonshire, and, calling at an inn, he ordered some of the famous cider. Not finding it to be what he had expected. he inquired how it was made. “Oh,” said the publican, “we stood a barrel of water at oue end of a room and threw applies at it.” This caused a general laugh, but the Yankee was equal to the occasion. “Waal,” he said, *I guess you didn't hit is very often.”—London Ideas.
