Many of the readers of the Pio- neer have been wondering about the significance of the sign (By United Press). which appears at the head of several articles ~ach day. - In explanation the editor would like to say that the United Press is an association of daily papers all over the United States and Canada which trade in- formation through a central bureau, the one for Minnesota being located in St. Paul. The United Press sees that the Pioneer is furnished with important domestic news every day and by the use of its service, the Pio- neer is able to give its readers more outside late news than any other pa- per its size in the state. The Pio- neer was the first paper in Bemidji yesterday to tell of the International Falls storm, was the first to tell of the Vermont election, the runaway accident at the state fair and numer- ous other items. This service is ex- pensive and the Pioneer hopes its readers will appreciate the fact. Vinton L. Ellis, “Vint” Ellis, who was drowned in Little Turtle Lake Sunday morning, had a host of friends in Bemidji who will regret his passing. He was a man of opinions and had the courage of his convictions. He took an ac- tive interest in public affairs, was charitable and courteous to all who crossed his path of life. The death of Mr. Ellis removes from the busi- ness life of Bemidji a man who had long identified himself with the pro- gressive ideas of the city. The Non-partisan Primary. ‘When the legislature passed the direct primary act, it saw fit to put certain classes of state and county officials on the “non-partisan’ ballot. These offices are those which the people have come to look upon as of too much importance to be subject to the machinations of party poli- ties. Too often in the past have men been nominated for these offices with no thought to their fitness. It behooves the voters of Minneso- ta, therefore, that in the coming pri- mary, they select on the non-partisan ballots especially, only those men ‘who by their records, education and certain ability are known to be fit for the office and well able to serve the public. Merit and fitness should be the tests to the end that only the best equipped will be nominated and elected. < If the non-partisan primary this fall is proved a success by the elimi- nation of unworthy candidates, it is not too much to expect that before many more elections go by the legis- lature will place all county and state offices on the mnon-partisan ballot. National political parties have long mixed in state and local affairs, so long in fact that many people have been fooled into believing that they have an inherent right to be tl{era, but the time is coming when every voter will see that this is not the case. When that day comes, the leg- islature will be forced to pass a law putting all state and county offices on the non-partisan ballot. Incidentally, such a step will mean a material shortening in the length of the ballot and less confusion to the voters and work for the judges and clerks. = Do Not Want Them. The Pioneer has received a sheet of ready made editorials from the campaign headquarters of one of the great national parties. The editor- ials of the Pioneer, with the excep- tion of those of other papers which or at any ether will the Pioneer use its space for canned editorials. Statements Do Not Agree. Governor Eberhart has said that all of his appointments were made for efficiency only and not for politi- cal purposes. On Saturday, the boil- er inspectors and deputy oil inspec- tors were called in to St. Paul and help elect Eberhart, they would be out of their jobs next year. THIS IS MY 81st BIRTHDAY. ‘William A. Peffer. William A. Peffer, who was a prom- inent figure in the United States sen- ate from 1891 to 1897, was born in Cumberland county, Pennsylvania, Sept. 10, 1831? In his youth he was engaged in teaching school in winter and worked on a farm in the summer. Soon after reaching his majority he decided to go west and try farming on his own account. He settled first in Indiana, removing a few years la- served as a private in an Illinois reg- iment. After the war he began the practice of law in Clarksville, Tenn., from which place he removed to Kan- sas, where he was destined to attain much political prominence. His pub- lic career began with his election to the Kansas senate in 1874. Later he joined the People’s party, which had become a dominent factor in Kansas politics, and .was elected by that party to the United States sen- ate in 1891. He retired from the sen- ante in 1897 and the next year was an unsuccessful candidate for gover- nor of Kansas on the Prohibition ticket. Of late years ex-Senator Pef- fer has devoted himself to literary work. Congratulations to: Poultney Bigclow, author and jour- nalist, fifty-seven years old today. Robert E.
