It is planning a program of work for the Commercial club is one of the most important institutions in Bemidji and it deserves the support of every citi- zen in the city. The Pioneer pledges its support to the Bemidji school teachers and is ready to aid them in all school af- fairs. We welcome the teachers to Bemidji. They are in charge of the coming citizens of Bemidji; they are the moulders of the lives of the Be- midji children. We feel certain that the people of Bemidji will give them all the aid that is possible. Staticians have discovered that the mortality rate of persons in the United States over 45 years of age is increasing. The strenuous life of today is not alone responsible for this. Lack of health-giving exercise, super- fluity of diet, lack of restoring sleep, over-stimulation, the high pressure of the race for power, wealth and position, plus physical neglect—these bring early decay. It is important that every citizen maintain a high standard of physical integrity. The New York Tribune contends that there is another opportunity for President Wilson to settle a strike on the eve of election. It is the strike of iron miners on the Mesaba range. These men struck for $3 for eight hours work, and bi-monthly paydays. They have suffered hardships as a re- sult of their strike. The Tribune points out that with the precedent established for the settlement of strikes by congress, at the direction of the president, enacting legislation compelling employers to pay the wages demanded by their employes, the iron workers should rush Bill Haywood, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn and Arturo Giovannitti to the White House before congress adjourns, that they should explain to the president the demands of the men and the number of voters in the organization known as the Industrial Workers of the World, remind him of the close approach of the presidential election and with the added force of a graphic description of the privations of the miners’ families, they would experi- ence no difficulty in inducing Mr. Wilson to order congress to enact legislation directing the mine own- ers to pay $3 for an eight-hour day. Mr. Wilson could not now logically refuse. FFRAGISTS MEET TO ST DETERMINE ATTITUDE (By United Press) Atlantic City, Sept. 6.—Hundreds of the nation’s most prominent suff- ragists came here today to decide what attitude to take toward the Re- publicans and the Democrats in the presidential campaign.

It is, in fact, YOUR FAIR, and the officers are runnnig it for YOU. They want YOUR ASSISTANCE in making it a fair that this whole community will be PROUD OF. They not only want yowur attendance, but WANT YOU TO EXHIBIT SOMETHING. A Fair cannot be made a success without liberal and substantial encouragement from the public and exhibitors, while the man- agement assures ‘the people that it will spare neither time, labor nor expense to make the exhibition large and a glorious success, it wants to be seconded by the lib- eral hand of the whole people in this part of the state, and are relying upon you, and your neighbors and friends to BOOST THE FAIR in every way you can devise. Come. A PROGRESS FAIR. We aim to get up an exhibition that will not be a plain repetition of the efforts of former years, but plan to have a live, pro- gressive fair, abounding in fresh and novel sights, and features that will be interesting because new and strange to the eyes of those who witness them. We hope to be able to make this the most marked and memorable of any show ever held by the Society, or held in this section of the country. It will be our endeavor to have the grounds, halls and exhibitis exceed in extent, novelty and splendor, those of any former years, and the occasion more conspicuous and gratifying. We are ambitious to hold a fair that will have no superior in its class, and be the event of the season. Do you approve of this? If so, co-operate with us in getting the result. FAIRS LEAD AGRICULTURE. It is to be noticed that the improvement in agricultural conditions of a country fol- lows in the lead of its fairs, and the strong- est development everywhere will be found where the fairs are most lively and inter- esting. Not only this, but the conditions - are strongly correlative, the fair being a re- flex of the thrift, liberality and prosperity of the people, so much so that where we find these traits in abundance we are al- ways assured of an overshadowing exhibi- tion. Hence farmers everywhere should feel a local pride and interest in their fair, and help it because by so doing it will in ret\u'n help them in many ways. MR. FARMER, Can’t you make at least one exhibit of somethmg of your raising, at our thzs yea/r’s fair?
