With energy and enthusiasm un- diminished, candidates in the prize campaign of The Ploneer are work- ing overtime to secure the necessary subscriptions which will entitle them to the bonus votes and credit on the gold ofter. All day yesterday the campaign office was filled with a steady stream of enthusiastic ones, eager to turn in every subseription and get out for more, for many can- didates appreciate the liberality of the gold offer, that allows them to secure as many clubs of collections on new and old subscriptions as they can, and do not intend to let the mat- ter rest with one. This is surely the time to make a mark in the cam- paign, and if you fail to take advant- age of it yours will be the loss. You will have until 9 p. m. October 26 to secure the necessary subscriptions, and now is the time to get them, as they will never be of more help to| you than they are now, as the secur- ing of them may be the thing that will win for you in the end. - Your Field The Wide Field. You who think that your chances are gone and that thie field has been well covered by other candidates should pause a moment and think of the many friends, former residents of Bemidji in other paces who would be glad to help you by paying a year’s subscription for news of their former home. Send these people a letter to- day. Many a campaign has been won by some ingenious candidate who ap- pealed to his friends away from home and thus secured votes where others might have, but did not think in time. Also the field has not yet been covered by any means. Al- though candidates have secured sub- scriptions here and there, many and many a new subscription, probably enough to win an extra gold prlze¥ for you, is lying almost at your very door waiting for you to come after it. Providence helps those who help thembselves, and likewise the world. | The one who goes after things is the one who gets them. With such a field you should be able to not only win a prize, but win one of the.big- gest. No restriction is placed upon you. Votes may be gathered and sub- scriptions secured wherever you can I get them. Small Payments. Here is an idea that may prove. of vast assistance to you. No doubt you have approached -the subscribers at the start of the campaign and they have given a subscription for six months. Visit these people again and get them to pay the balance on a year’s subscription. In a majority of cases subscribers are willing to do this, as they want the paper anyway and they are willing to help you by paying in advance for their period. For example: A person who sub- scribes to The Pioneer for six months and paid $2.50 receiving 5,000 votes for the subscription, by getting this person to pay $2.50 additional you ‘will be given the difference between the number of votes allowed for a year’s subscription and those allowed for six months. When turning in these always mark your stub ‘‘second payment.” Closing of Special Offer. Do not locge sight of the fact that the big extra gold and 175,000 bonus club offer closes Saturday, October 25, 2t 9 p. m. Make every minute of your time count from now until then ~nd don’t lose a second of it. If you have secured one club, start right out for avother. Get as many clubs as peseible, Your Attitude. Make people whom you approach for subscriptions feel that yvou are out to win and want their help, and refuse to be daunted by any obstacle that may arise. It is only by sur- MISS ESTHER F. JOHNSON.

Johnson of Nymore is an enthusiastic candidate and is doing her very best to win one of the automobiles in The Pioneer’s campaign. mounting obstacles that anything is occomplished in the world, and if our great men quit when they encounter- ed a rock in their path their ways would not lie along the road of great- ness, but down the quick pathway of oblivion. If you meet some other candidate who tells you of the num- ber of votes she has, and tells you that you have no chance to pass him, take the story with a grain of salt. Most probably your vote is equal to hers, and she is merely telling you her story in the hope of getting rid of a competitor. Go along your way, gathering in every possible subserip- tion, and when the time comes to award the prizes, you will surely be gratified at the reward that wul be yours. Not along in the reward it- self will you feel pride, but in the honor that will acerue to you for your accomplishing what many others will regret not having tried. Many a candidate will have a strong feeling of regret at not having tried for one of these magnificent automo- biles and others will say, “If I had only tried just a little harder.” Let no “if” stand in your way. Forget the word and you will never have cause to berate yourself for having passed up one of the greatest oppor- tunities of your lite. Let no one say to you, “So-and-So is a quitter.” Show your friends and those who believe in you that you are worthy of their help and that +quitting is not one of your character- | isties. . PLEAST NOTICE! There is a ruling which every candidate subscribed to when they entered this campaign, that is: “votes are not transferrable, can- not be given away or sold.” Any vote ballot coming back showing any erasure or alteration. unless made by the campaien manager, will be thrown out and cancelled. Vote ballots are never issued in blank—they always bear the name of the candidate before thev leave this office. ‘“Fair vplay” is the solgan. The sum of $100 in gold will be di- vided into six prizes as follows: To the candidate residing in Dis- trict No. 1, who receives the largest number of votes issued on collections between the dates of Tuesday, Octob- er 14 and 9 p. m. Saturday, October 25, will be given $26 in gold. * To the candidate receiving the sec- ond largest number of votes, $15 in gold.

Not only has every candidate, no matter where he or she stands now, an equal opportunity to win this gold, but all collections will apply on the offer of 175,000 extra votes for every club of $25. This gold offer is an added induce- ment to make the next two weeks count as never before. Winning one of these prizes does not interfere with the award of the regular prizes. or the payment of cash commissions to non-winners. * . Not only can you win a gold prize, but thousands of extra votes will place you in a formidable position in the vote column. It may lead you to be one of the three candidates who will win the three magnificent auto- mobiles. Let this liberal offer be your step to victory. 175.000 Extra Votes Free. Every candidate who brings or sends in $26 in campaign collections between the date of Monday October 13 -and Saturday October 25, inclu- sive, will be given a ballot for 175,- 000 extra votes in addition to the regular number of votes. The time is short, so you must get right to ‘| work or this offer will be of no help to you. YOU WILL RECEIVE 175,- 000 EXTRA VOTES O NEVERY §$25 YOU TURN IN DURING THIS PERIOD. Remember, you are not compelled to bring in or send in the $26 in one lump sum. For instance, you may bring in $6 today $5 tomorrow and so on. A careful record of every dol- lar will be kept and as soon as a can- didate has a club of $25 the extra votes will be issued and given to the candidate. District No. 1.
