Potatoes grown in the soil of this county won first Dprize at the great Minnesota state fail': This one prize will do more toward boosting this county than any other. Minnesota is the great po- tato market of the world. Beltrami county raises the first prize potatoes. ‘Where will the settler come, espec- ially when other Beltrami products ‘won prizes also. Andrew Johnson, Elsewhere in this issue is printed a few paragraphs about the life of Andrew Johnsom, candidate for the Republican nomination for sheriff of Beltrami county. In this column we only wish to say that the Pioneer can recommend Andrew Johnson to the voters of Beltrami county as a man whose honesty is above ques- tion, whose courage has been tested many times under trying circum- stances, whose knowledge of men comes from many years of experience in tHis county, and whose ability is such that both the present sheriff and his predecessor saw fit to have Mr. Johnson as their deputy. Frank H. Peterson. Frank H. Peterson had a fair sized audience when here the other night, but his platform has spread beyond those who heard him speak. Mr. Pet- erson is opposing Halvor Steenerson for re-nomination for congress on the Republican ticket cam- paigning through this part of the dis- trict. The fact that Mr. Peterson has the active opposition of the railroad in- terests is enough to recommend him and was to many voters who are dissatisfied with the service Mr. Steenerson has Mr. Peterson is the man who drafted the two cent fare law which was passed by the state legislature in 1907 and which gave the people of Minnesota two cent fares until knocked out by the courts. It is easy to see why the railroads regard him as a dangerous man and prefer to have Mr. Steener- been rendering of late. son keep his seat. Mr. Peterson declares that if elect- ed his first act will be to introduce a bill granting the right to states to control all railroad commerce within their boundaries, both interstate and intrastate. Such a law, he says, will do away with the right of the na- tional courts to kill legislation such as the Minnesota two cent fare law. He is also in favor of a working- man’s compensation act, the initia- tive and referendum, and other thor- There ar2 many in the Ninth congressional district who oughly progressive measures. believe that Halvor Stecnerson is no longer serving the Ninth district only .and welcome to the fight 2 man like Peterson who will run on progressive principles, and then stand by them. The Sieenerson machine reaches to every little post office and mail route in the Ninth district, and it is only when the voter realizes this fact that he will see it is only by uniting on one man that opposition to Steener- son can be crystalized. Peterson’s Scandinavian ancestry will stamp him as a lover of freedom. He will not knuckle to the railroads nor to any other interest. THIS DATE IN HISTORY.

THIS IS MY 69th BIRTHDAY. Yves Guyot. Yves Guyot, noted economist and former minister of finance in France, was born at Dinan, France, Septem- ber 6, 1843. After holding various public offie’'s he was appointed a member of the Tirard ministry in| 1889. Previously, as a municipal ! councilor, he attracted a great deal | of attention by his attacks on the prefecture of police. These cost him six months in prison, but ultimately resulted in the resignation of the pre- fect of police. M. Guyot is probably the best known publicist in France. He has been connected with various newspapers, among them La Lan- terne, Le Rappel and Le Siecle. He has published a number of works on economical, political, and municipal subjects, as wtll as several satirical romances.

There was a little group about St. Peter and the outer guards were doing their best to form the applicants in line. Suddenly the venerable gatetender gave a little start. He pointed to the man at the end of the line. ' “Let the applicant back there—that one who is talking to himself and counting his fingers with a lead pen- | cil come this way.” The man stepped forward. “Walk right in” said the saint; “we always make an exception of head line writers.” And the applicant, still moving his lips and counting his fingers, passed through the golden portals. Cause of the Excitement. “What’s the cause of the excite- ment? Look! There’s a great crowd around the public library building. Something must have happened.” “Wait a minute. I know the libra~ rian. I'll telephone over and see what's ‘wrong.” (Business of telephoning.) “Well, what is it?” “Somebody has started a rumor that there is a business man inside reading a book of poems.” A Matter of Pride, “No,” said Mr. Meekton; “I don’t want Henrietta to go into politics.” “You are envious of her superior en: ergy.” “No; I'm not. But Henrietta is sure to rise to official position. And when I hand her my salary on Saturday night I don’t want to be haunted by any doubts whether it is my voluntary domestic contribution or a species of municipal graft.” BLEACHED.

The world may be a weary place And brimming full of woe; But cease your plaint, old Frowning Faece, 'Tis you that make it so. Benevolence Recognized. “How did you come to vote for that man?” “He's the friend of the plain peo- ple.” “Has he done anything to prove i “I should say so. He hires brass bands and speaks pieces and gives us more free entertainment than we ever had before in our lives.” Conservative Opinion. “This newspaper speaks of a ‘girl’ whose age turns out to be thirty years. Do you think she is still a girl at that age?” “Well, she may be a girl, but there 18 no doubt that she is somewhat ma~ ture.” 'to walk in a small yard where no eye SOLITARY CONFINEMENT Boston, Mass., Sept. 6—Jesse Pom- eroy, probably the most notorious of life prisoners in the United States, to- day rounded out his thirty-sixth vear of solitary confinement in the state prison at Charlestown. At the age of sixteen he was sent to prison for torturing and murdering little children. While “solitary imprison- ment” is the name given to the pun- ishment Pomeroy is undergoing, it does not mean that he never leaves his cell. Each day, while the other prisoners are at work, he is permitted except that of the guard can see him. During his many years behind the bars Pomeroy has educated himself from the books in the prison’s large library. NEWS FOR NOVEL READERS. When an author can get $15,000 for- the serial rights of a new novel it is safe to guess that his book is going to be an affair of national in- terest. This is the price which Rex Beach, author of “The Spoilers” and “The Ne'er-Do-Well,” has just receiv- ed for first publication of his new ro- m‘zmce, “The Net,” and the newspa- per that has secured the story is The Chicago Record-Herald. “The Net” is described as a thrilling novel of \love, mystery and adventure, dealing |with the murderous deeds of the Italian “Black Hand” in the United States. Mr. Beach himself says it is |the best he ever wrote. “The Net” is to be published exclusively in The Chicago Record-Herald, beginning next Sunday. It will be an event for all story lovers, DAIRY COWS INCREASING. According to the showing made at the Minnesota state fair, Guernsey cattle are coming to the front as the most popular breed in this state, dis- placing beef cattle, which formerly were most popular. In addition to the Guernsey cattle, the Holsteins and Brown Swiss are also shown in large numbers at the Minnesota fair. The total number of cattle exceeds all previous records.
