POOOOPOPOOOOO®® We take it that the governor isn’t feeling “extra” good these days. Wanted: To trade one lawn mow- er for a self-propelling snow shovel. Maybe the issuance of those 300 hunting licenses is an illustration of 16 to to one—16 hunting licenses to one deer. " With two more Dumas trials com- ing along and art pictures being giv- en free, there is no question but that now is the time to subscribe. 1f they bring him in on a stretcher any time between now and the end of the season you will understand that it was merely an accident. At Duluth the other day an angry Chinaman made a thrust with a knife at Miss Hilja Hannula. “Oh, stay,” she cried to the knife, and of cor-set it did. Our make-up man caught the spir- it of the occasion when, in last night's Pioneer, he shot to pieces the account of the opening of the hunt- ing season. We'll wager a couple of iron ranges against a counterfeit cent that if Sam Y. Gordon were governor, he would attend that St. Cloud meet- ing all right. In Brussels there is a clock that| never has been touched by human hands. It is kept going by wind. Here, at last, is a suitable occupation | for Mr. Bryan. Governor Eberhart says he can not attend the St. Cloud convention but that he will have a man there to ex- plain things for him. How would you like to be the man to do the ex- plaining? Over at Park Rapids a farmer by the name of Fred Samberg says he dug a potato weighing six pounds from his patch. Better plug it Fred. Some boy may have planted a foot- ball on you. THE BLOWING OF A WHISTLE. All sorts of arguments are on as to just what Governor Eberhart said re- garding an extra session in his talk at Brainerd a year ago. At the time, the Pioneer reported him as saying positively that unless a reapportionment bill passed last winter, he would reconvene the law- makers. This paper believed it was quoting him éorrectly and there are many who heard the address who iz‘xsist our version was the right one. But after all it doesn’t much mat- ter just what words were nsed. The session would be called if one was needed. This impression has been permit- ted to stand for nearly a year with no contradiction from Governor Eber- hart. g Far from it. On the floor of the senate when the Congdon reapportionment bill was being considered, Senator Hackney, chairman of the reapportionment, committee, coming almost directly from the governor’s office, said: “I warn you that unless a bill is passed, the state of Minnesota will be put to the extra expense of a spec- ial session to consider this-important question. Governor Eberhart has made the promise that a special ses- sion will be called and I have no doubt but that he will keep his prom- ise.” . Here was a message as direct from the executive office as the most ar- dent champion of reapportionment could desire. “The threat of an extra cession has | no terrors for me,” responded Sena- tor Hag'craft speaking for the opp5§~\ ing senators who defeated the bill and one of the strong arguments | against the measure was that the| North was not getting the represen- | tation to which she was entitled. } And just here it would seem uppra‘-J priate to remember the governor’s! oft repeated, in days gone hy,i firm declaration that pfirty pledges | should amount to something—that the Republican party should redeem | its party platform promise on reap-l‘ Portionment. We believe that when the gover-; nor ponders over these things; when he communes with himself and per-| mits his memory to run back a few| months that he must begin to realize | that after all it isn’t for him to slam the door of hope in the face of the| North by handing out such things as his announcement in St. Paul on Wednesday that it would be folly to| reconvene the legislature, as he orig- inally intended to do.. But the dick-| ens of it is, just the moment the gov- ernor has reached that stage when he is again willing to redeem that Brain- erd pledge, he is awakened by the blowing of a locomotive whistle. NEWS FORECAST FUR THE COMING WEEK. The return of President Taft to Washington after an absence of two months will be the signal for a re- awakening of official life and politi- cal activity in the natio_nal capital. Though Congress will not meet for several weeks many of the members will be on hand for meetings of vari- ous commissions and official investi- gations. The president will begin| work in earnest on his annual mes- sage and political leaders will drop in to consult with him concerning the preliminary work of the approaching campaign, which ic is generally agreed is to have an earlier begin- ning next year than is usually the case. ke The progress of events in Tripoli and of the revolutionary movement in China, together with the McNamara trial in Los Angeles, may still be counted on to furnish first-page stor- ies. %% The first session of Canada’s newly elected twelfth Parliament will open Wednesday. The proceedings on the first day will be purely formal and of a routine character. The ceremonial opening by His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught will take place Thursday and promises to be an event of exceptional brilliancy. The dura- tion of the parliamentary session and the extent and character of the busi- ness to be transacted are largely problematical. * % 2 i Among the important gatherings of the week will be the annual conven- tion of .the American Federation of Labor, at Atlanta; the annual con- vention of the American Road Build- ers’ Association, at Rochester; the meeting of the Trans-Mississippi Commercial Congress, at Kansas City, the convention of the American As- sociation for the Study and Preven- tion .of Infant Mortality, at Chicago, the American Apple Congress, in Den- ver. . X Other events of more or less inter- est and importance will be the annual banquet of the Canadian Club of New impression created was that an extra and the convention and exhibition of |~ chusetts mo};umédts‘ oil Pétéisburg efleld and at Valley Forgs, the United States ‘Land -and Irrigation of the National Horse Show in New York, and the football games between Yale and Princeton, Michigan and Pénnsylvania, and ‘Wisconsin and Minnesota universities.

Up Against It, is Right. | It is now up to Governor Eberhart to call that extra session of the leg- islature to emact a reapportionment’ law, and thereby make good his promise at Brainerd last December. It looks like the governor is up against the real thing. The twin cit- ies are fighting the extra session.— Twin Valley Times. Geod for International Falls! Bemidji Pioneer: “International is to have a new brick yard. What | are you going to do, throw them at Fort Frances?” Well, hardly! We need them in the process of building up the most substantial city in north- ern Minnesota, and besides we have no quarrel with Fort Frances nor time to spend in such unneighborly pastime.—International Falls Jour- nal. They Look Different Now- Governor Eberhart has announced that he will not call an extra ses- sion of the legislature. He gives as a reason that the Sanborn case is pending before the supreme court and that it is best to await the decision. Matters look a bit different to His Ex- cellency than they did a year ago when he made that “extra session” promise at Brainerd. The governor probably wishes he hadn’t talked quite so freely on that historic occa- sion.—Staples Headlight. Remove the Cause.

The doctors did not help me much and would never have cured me. “I saw a testimonial in a Peruna almanac of a case similar to mine, and I commenced using it. “I was not able to wait on myself when I began using it. I gained very slowly at first, but I could see that it was helping me. “After I had taken it a while I com- menced to raise up a stringy, stickys| substance from my lungs.

From day to day it is piling ar- gument upon argument in favor of its contention, and influential men all over the state are getting back of the agitation. Reapportionment and the | increase of the railroad gross'earn-| ings tax are live and important is-| sues, easily understood, issues which will, unless they are met and settled right in the very near future, create havoc®with those who are trying to laws.— \ keep the people groaning under them. —George H.
