B That wide-awake paper, the Bemidji Pioneer, is waging a red- : hot campaign for an extra session of the legislature with reap- portionment and justice to-Northern Minnesota as:its slogan: The Vivacious Pioneer has undertaken a large contract—the* world, the flesh and the devil are all arrayed against the cause it so ably advocates—but grit and perseverance may win in the end.—Editorial comment in R.

N. KOLL, a member of the executive commrittee of the Northern # Minnesota Development association, hits the present reapportion- wment nail on the head. Truthfully, he says that there has been a'legitimate silence on the part of the governor because the very association to which he gave his pledge has indicated that an extra session would be objéctionable. Now, let us discuss this great question, Mr. Koll says in effect and if, after mature deliberation at the St. Cloud convention, it seems reasonable to presume that a calmed legislature will see its way clear to pass s re- apportionment measure that it will then be wise to, Zieclnre having the governor issue such a call. Again, Mr. Koll, it seems to us, is right when he says that Lhe associa- tion should steer clear of the rock of politics in so far as that means that the Development association should by no manner or means deliberately plan to wreck the public life of any man or to boost favorites. If it is politics, however, for Northern Minnesota to demand that the reapportionment loadstone be torn from her neck, then this papcr believes that politics and redpportionment are a Siamese twins affair and that woe heckons to the man or candidate who attempts to separate them. Be fair to Governor Eberhart? Yes. Then let the governor be fair to Northern Minnesota, and the thousands who' believe he will be fair form that power which will cause a good many headaches if there is any cttempt to cut moonshines over reapportionment at the expense of the people. iu favor of The St. Cloud convention will discuss the reapportionment »roposition -—that appears an established fact; a resolution calling for an extra ses- sion may or may not be adopted, but if the North is struggling along on the present outrageous system or Trepresentation next November it is apt to e a bad month for the men in power. - * x s SCRAMBLED EGGS AND THE ‘STEEL TRUST. 7} AN you unscramble eggs?” was J. Pierpont Morgan’s only comment on the announcement that the-legality of the steel trust—one of the most gigantic commercial organizations the world ever hag was to be attacked. known— Pierp knows dog gone well that you can’t unscramble eggs and that is Why he complacently continues to ogle his art collections with no fear knawing at his heart that the sheriff might come along and confiscate them. But it isn’t necessary to keep on scrambling eggs. This part of the world has more than ‘passing interest in this steel trust scrambled egg squabble. - Beginning at a point not far from Bemidji, iron ore mines more valuable than a section of African diamonds are found in abundance. Owned, of course, by the steel trust- which by dint of diligent industry or other- Wwise, also has added to its collection railroad systems and stean'\bnat lines. The prosperity of the steel trust means something for the prosperity of | Minnesota, but its continued happiness doesn’t depend upon crooked com- binations. There is money in digging iron ore and melting it into steel. ‘There may be too much money in it. There is, if it is true that the happy steel trust family grasps within its sturdy hand—call it the big mitt, if you want to—the key:to the iron mines, control of the railroads. the pow- er to regulate the output and thus establish prices in defiance of all com- yetition. Steel trust hospitals, steel trust-public buildings, steel trust philan- trophies and the remainder of the steel trust virtues don’t look good to the man who has to buy steel trust products when he feels if there was fair competition he could buy cheaper. - So while Mr. Morgan’s scrambled egg comment is a poser, lei us hope that thg government may be able to cool- the fire to the non-scrambling |- point in the future. President Taft can hardly be accused of unjustifiably jeopardizing the business interests of the country. If our conservative president consents to-proceedings such as now instituted by his attorney generi;l_ it is ;1 pret- ty safe wager that he has detected a bad member in the scrambled egg collection. /THIS DATE IN HISTORY. - October 30. 1632—Henry de Montmorency, ® admiral of France, bi headed for conspiracy. < 1683—George II of Hngland & born.

The betting book of White's club in London contains the record of some extraordinary wagers. - The ldle gen- tlemen ‘of 100 years: ago-could: give thelir:successors of today sundry hints on eccentric betting. ~Here are fac- similes of some: of {he records. One reads: “Mr.- Methuen bets Colonel Stanhope 10 guineas to 1 that a worthy bar- onet—understood -between.them—does not from necessity part with his gdld ice pails before this day twelvemonth. The ice pails being found at a pawn- broker's will not entitle Colonel Stan- hope to receive his 10 guineas.” This peculiar wager was made in 1813, and another one. recorded the same year .t White's. may have ref- erence to the snme hard up:personage. It reads: “Lord Alvanley bets Sir Joseph Cop- ley 5 guineas that a certain baronet —understood between them—Is very much embarrassed in circumstances. In three years from the date hereof, if one of his Dbills is dishonored or he is observed to borrow small change of the chairmen or waiters, Sir Joseph is to be reckoned to lose.” Here is an odd one: “Mr. Butler bets Sir- George : Talbot 20 guineas to 1 that he is not in the room at White's with Napoleon in the course of the next two years—April 24, 1815.” History shows that Mr. Butler won that guinea.—Cliristian Science Moni- tor. s PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS Your druggist will refund money if PA- Z0 OINTMENT fails to cure any case of Itching, Blind, Bleedinz or Protrud- ing Piles in 6 to 14 days. 50c.
