X THIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE £ ESSN\GEOCIATION: cooom 0 0 0 0 0 FRYSTN GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES That Normal School Deal. The Duluth News Tribune in an editorial ably jumps to the rescue of the cities which aspire to secure the Sixth Normal school. Coming'from sources other than this city, Bemidji feels grateful to the able and unso- licited support received by the news- papers and cities of Northern Min- nesota and agrees with the editorial in the News Tribune in the belief that the members of the commission are too big, too honest and square to enter into or be a party to a deal whereby the political debts of Burn- quist and Rines might be gratified. The Tribune article is headed, “A Scandal in the Brew” and is as fol- lows: ' “In yesterday’s issue the News Tribune reprinted an editorial from the Menagha Journal, which direct- 1y charges that the commission to lo- cate the sixth state normal school is a frame-up. It charges that the lo- cation is already decided upon before the applying towns are visited. “It has been rumored for some time that this was the fact ,but we have believed that this was but the resulf of the natural suspicions of rival localities. The Journal, how- ever, makes the specific charge and goes into details to prove it. The law provides for the location of this school north of the Northern! Pacific railroad and west of St. Louis county, by a commission of five, to be named “jointly” by the governor, the lieutenant governor and the speaker of the house. “According to the Journal, when Governor Eberhart went to Lieuten- ant Governor Burnquist to say he was ready to act under this law, he was told by Mr. Burnquist that he and Speaker Rines had already se- lected three of the commission, a ma- Jjority, and that the governor could name the other two. They had named Superintendent “chulz, Senator Ole Sageng and W. ‘W. Brown of the house organization. It is charged that these three are al- ‘ready committed to Thief River Falls and that Bemidji, Park Rapids, Cass 'fi,ake, Fosston, Grand Rapids and all other towns eligible under the law are already out of it. In spite of the circumstantial di- rectness of the Journal’s evidence, the News Tribune is inclined to doubt this story, chiefly because .of the inclusion of Mr. Schulz. We have too high an opinion of him person- ally and professionally to believe that he would be a party to any such a deal to gratify Mr. Rines by paying his political debts, and Mr. Burn- quist by helping his fences. E “More than this, regardless of ‘what the facts may be or what any one may say, Mr. Schulz’s vote will inevitably be taken as the preference ©of the governor. He holds the of- fice of superintendent of schools by virtue of Governor Eberhart’s ap- pointment. He is one of the leading members of the official family. “If he votes for Thief River Falls or any other town, his vote will be popularly taken as that of Adolph O. Eberhart. This may be unjust, and we wish to say for ourselves that we 80 consider it, but it is human na- ture based upon what has been near- 1y the invariable rule in pdlitics. It will be inconceivable by the vast ma- Jority that a leading appoinfee on so important a matter would, act con- trary to the wishes of his chief or “without intimate consultation. a' ost office at Bemidji, ! | expedition. “As it'is, with this charge made, the situation becomes most unfor- tunate. The location of this school should not be the football of poli- ‘tics ,nor given as a payment for po- litical debts, It should be located isolely to give the greatest possible Iadvantage to the largest unserved population. ' “More than this, unless this charge evidence, Thief River Falls is the location that is out of the running, as even if now chosen, no legislature :would dare make the necessary ap; propriation to carry it into effect. “As a fact, we have thought that the commission as formed was unfor- tunate in not having as a member a representative of the state univers- is at once disproved by incontestible | A RIFLE OF TODAY.

Both .President Vincent and President Emeritus Northrup were spoken of as probable members and there was much surprise when neith- er was named. “But unless the present commis- Ision, Mr. Burnquist and Speaker Rines can clear their skirts, instead of another normal school the state is more apt to have an unhappy politi- cal scandal, Will you be up in the morning to hear the old cannon fired at sun- rise? The Indians will celebrate at Red Lake Friday and Saturday and Bem- idji is invited to come up and dance with them.—Dickens. H. E. Reynolds made a hit at Du- luth last Tuesday in a speech before the Land Clearing Committee. He was the only Bemidji man in at- tendance and he made good. Through him Bemidji was much in the lime- light. When he was asked for a few remarks, they say that he became real enthusiastic and delivered the banner speech of the day in good old Bemidji style. We’re glad it was Reynolds who went. He can go again. Remember Get the glowing punk and the cracker out, Let the loud torpedo busily boom; Flutter the banner and bravely shout, Give to the screeching old eagle room. Tell the wondering. Hstening world once more Of the glory we claim and our strength and pride: Let the shout be echoed from shore toshore And wafied o'er prairie and mountain side; Let the folds of our glorious flag be tossed High o'er the heads of unshackled men— But don't forget that the hand that {s lost ‘Will never grow on your wrist again. Shout of the glory our ancestors won, Let the Declaration be proudly read: ‘Tear a hole through the roof with the rusty gun, Cause the dogs to hide or to flee in dread. Let the czars and the kings of the world be told Of the pride and the strength of a free- born race, Let the welkin ring as it rang of old, Make the land wa claim an uproarious place | Shoot and shout all the glorlous day, ‘Whoop of the greatness of free-born mea— But remember the nose that {3 shot away ‘Will never grow-on your face again. —S.E.KISER. WMM RACE RIOT AT S7. Lows Cooks and Waiters in Fashionable Hotels Strike. St. Louis, July 3.—A strike of cooks and waiters in the most fash- ionable hotels and cafes here opened with a race riot between striking white waiters and strikebreaking negroes. Three men were slashed with razors, a score of others were less seriously injured and a dozen were arrested as a result .of the fight, in which several hundred men figured. The strikers demand $1 a week in- crease in pay, shorter hours and better food for the cooks. Members of the Hot:l 2nd Restaurant Keep- ers’ association met and decided to ignore the demands of the unioms. Messages were sent immediately to Hot Springs, Ark., Little Rock and Chicago for 500 negro waiters. WILL INSPECT CROCKERLAND Whaler Diana to Spend Three Years in Arctic.

DIPLOMATIC DUEL BREWING: Argentina and BrazifCompeting for Favor of United States. ‘Washington, July 3.—A diplomatic duel between Argentina and Braail for favor with the United States is ve- ported to be one of the motives for sending of Dr. Lauro Muller of Brazil on a visit to this country. ‘When Brazil raised its diplomatic representative at Washington to the rank of ambassador and the United States reciprocated by sending an am- bassador to Brazil keen jealousy was stirred in Argentina, which at once started overtures by placing an am- bassador at Washington. ‘While Dr. Muller is making an ex- tended tour of the United States and building up friendships for his coun- try the Argentine republic is prepar- ing to send to this country in the fall Dr. Victorine De La Plaza, vice presi- dent of Argentina, who will be official- ly received and entertained. DECLARES SHE WAS JILTED BY SULZER Young Woman Files Sulf for Breach of Promise. Philadelphia, July 3.—Miss Mig- non Hopkins, who entered suit for breach of promise against Governor Sulzer of New York, is the daughter of a- Brooklyn attorney. Miss Hopkins, who is one of three attractive sisters, stipulates the date of her engagement to the governor, and in her claim says she has endear- ing letters from him to show that he jilted her and married a Philadel- phia woman in Atlantic City on Jan. &, 1908. Miss Hopkins is a beautiful blond of about twenty-eight. In her affi- davit she swears that William Sulzer became engaged to her and that he asked her to keep it secret until he was to marry her, as for him to do 80 at that time would have injured his political career. From time to time, she swears, she lived -with Wiliam Sulzer for a brief period in various hotels in New York city and other places, and that Sul- zer introduced her as his wife to his acquaintances. ook sk b o lek ek b e o oo +* K o & MESSINA IS SHAKEN BY < <+ EARTHQUAKE.

If you are planning a trip, if you wish to go to a theatre, a lec- ture, to church, if you need to buy practically any article of ordinary use, spend your copper for a good newspaper and turn to the adver- tising columns for the latest in- formation on the subject you have in mind. Make a practice of doing this and you will find that you save yourself both time and trou- ble and that many a dime that might have been wasted has either been saved or spent in such a way that you have attained the maxi- mum of value from it. Heedless spending wastes more || money than wilful extravagance. In justice to yourself, you must keep in touch with, what is in the market. Buy a newspaper and save your dimes by reading the adver- tisements regularly. Copyright 1912 by Geo. B. Patterson. GEM IMPORTS INCREASING Dealers Fear Increase of Duty Under New Tariff. New York, July 3.—“Gem import record broken,” is an announcement made monthly since the first of the vear at the United States appraiser’s offices. The total for June reads $5; 102,917, nearly $2,000,000 of which sum is represented by uncut stones, mostly diamonds.

MARQUIS AGREES TO SETTLE Pays Actress $250,000 for Breach of ! Promise. London, July 3.—Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars and all the costs of the suit is the price the Marquis of Northampton has agreed to pay to settle the suit for breach of promise brought against him by “One perfect day"—made more so by these Fatima Cigarettes! Theirmild Turkish fragrance, rich and smooth flavor, suit fastidious fellows. They win favor! In the unpretentious pack- age you will find 10 more cigarettes—20 for 15 cents, e the actress, Miss Daisy Markham, whose real name is Miss Violet Moss. The costs will amount to a consid- erable sum on account of the number of distinguished counsel engaged to plead for the opposing parties.
