THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER VOLUME 10. NUMBER 166. BEMIDJI, MINNESOTA, FrIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 8, 1912.

That the ladies’ societies of the various churches in Bemidji realize the splendid opportunity offered by the Bemidji Pioneer is self evident. They are extending every effort to secure enough Pioneer subscriptions to make their church a gift of from $125 to $500. It appears that some do not fully understand the proposition and for the benefit of such the following explanation will becarried in the columns of the Pion- eer from day to day: ONE DOLLAR CASH WILL BE PAID TO EACH LADIES, SOCIETY FOR EVERY YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION, OLD OR NEW, SECURED FOR THE DAILY PIONEER. WHEN A SET OF ONE HUNDRED HAS BEEN REACHED A SPECIAL PREMIUM OF $25 WILL BE GIVEN. THUS FOR ONE HUNDRED SUBSCRIPTIONS THE SOCIETY SECURING THEM WILL HAVE RECEIVED A CASH GIFT OF $125. IF A CLUB SECURES BUT SEVENTY-FIVE YEARLY SUBSCRIPTIONS, IT WILL RECEIVE §75; IF BUT FIFTY YEARLY SUBSCRIPTIONS, $50; AND IF ONLY TEN ARE SECURED A CASH GIFT OF $10 WILL BE MADE. FOR ONE SIX MONTHS SUBSCRIPTION TO THE DAILY PIONEER, FIFTY CENTS WILL BE PAID, AND FOR EACH ADDITIONAL SIX MONTHS SUBSCRIPTIONS SECURED THE RATE WILL BE PAID THE SAME. THUS, WHEN TWO HUNDRED OF THESE SIX MONTHS SUBSCRIPTIONS HAVE BEEN TURNED IN, AN ADDITIONAL GIFT OF $25 WILL BE GIVEN. A SIX MONTHS SUBSCRIPTION COUNTS JUST HALF OF A YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE DAILY PION- EER. ONE YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION TO SAME AS SIX MONTHS TO THE BEING THE SUBSCRIPTION PRICE THE WEEKLY PIONEER COUNTS DAILY, THE ONLY DIFFERENCE WHICH IS $1.50 A YEAR. THE DAILY FOR SIX MONTHS IS $2 AND THE DAILY FOR ONE YEAR 1S $4. SECURING SUBSCRIPTIONS. Many of hustlers of the various churches will be surprised to learn that already regular subscribers are coming to this office to make pay- ments direct, with instructions to re- serve the dollar gift for the society which they will later designate. The women are not alone in this work, but men and children are getting busy to help their favorite church. ‘With a campaign of this nature on, every nook and crook in this section of the country will be supplied with a Pioneer. Every fifty men, women and children belonging to any one church can make their church have the first cash gift of $125. If 150 hustlers will secure each two subscribers it will result in 300 names. Three hundred yearly sub- scribers would mean three times $125 or $375. Wouldn't this be a handsome gift 1o make your church for Christmas. List of Free Premiums. In addition to this offer to the Ladies, Aid societies the Pioneer has decided to make a gift to every sub- seriber. With a year's subscription paid in advance, the subscriber is given his choice of any of the fol- lowing premiums: One limp leather bound dic- tionary .

BIG GAME ON SATURDAY Bemidji and Grand Rapids to Fight For Championship of Northern Minnesota. TEAMS DANCE IN EVENING In the last football game of -the season, the Bemidji high school team will clash with Grand Rapids tomor- row afternoon at 4 o’clock for the championship of Northern Minne- sota. The game will be especially hard fought because Grand Rapids defeated Bemidji 19 to 6 three weeks ago on the Grand Rapids field and the local boys are out for revenge. Coach Earl Carson, of Bemidii, and Coach Fred Carson, of Grand Rapids, will act as officials and in case of dispute the decision will go to Harold Dane, the head linesman. Coach Fred Carson will referee the first half and Coach Earl Carson will umpire and the positions will be reversed in the second. Grand Rapids is champion of the range while Bemidji has been left the champion of Northern Minnesota by the refusal of Crookston to play the scheduled game. Since the Grand Rapids game of three weeks ago, the Bemidji team has had lit- tle practice white the (rana Rapids boys have played two games. The one tomorrow will be for blood. Sat- urday evening, the high school ath- eltic association will give a dance. There is practically no money in the treasury and the game and dance admission fees will have to pay the expenses. Following is the Bemidji lineup: Elletson, r. e.; Achenbach, r. t.; Ti- tus, r. g.; Sullivan, c.; Johnson, 1. g.; Olson, 1. t.; Graham, 1. e.; Bailey, q.; Peck, r. h.; Lycan, f. b.; Hayner, 1. h. Referee Earl Carson; Umpire, Fred Carson; Linesman, Harold J. Dane. ADDITION FOR HOSPITAL. Excavation is neartng completion on the Samaritan hospital which is being remodled for an addition. G. Mehlhorn has the contract and is rushing the work so as to complete it by the first of January. He has three teams and ten men on the ex- cavation work and will have a crew of carpenters at work in a few days. ‘When completed the building will be valued at about $5,000. It will have the same finish as the new Episcopal church which will add to the attrac- tiveness of the building. The hospital was started by Nurse Smith a few years ago and has been rapidly progressing. Lately the old quarters have been over crowded un- til it was finally decided to make an addition. The new building when finished will be eighteen by forty- two feet and will be two stories high.

The village and town of Spon- er are included in the above figures but nothing has been heard from Baudette. Harris and Moon are run- ning neck and neck in the north end and Harris lead of twelve more was fought for. The result of the fight may depend entirely on the vote im the village of Baudette. Eugene Debs is piling up a big vote in this county and at present leads all other presidential candi- dates. The vote on fifty-seven pre- cinets is as follows: Taft .. ..433 Wilson .. .. .. .. .. . . ..671 Roosevelt .. ..680 Debs .. ..128 Debs has been pollmg more than his share of the vote and this is taken to indicate that his vote is not a true measu-e of the Socialist strength in the county as many Re- publicans voted for Debs rather than for a Democrat. It is said that they voted for Debs because they would ont vote for either Taft or Roosevelt and did not care to see a Democratic administration. Beltrami county, as well as the entire north country, is giving Judge Stanton a big vote but his case is considered practically hope- less as he lost the big cities by wide margins.
