B { l 1 This Is the Day for You To Make a Big Showing Must Be in the Ballot Box in The Pioneer Office by That Time or They Will Not Be Counted CANDIDATES AND PUBLIC ARE INVITE Do Not Trust to Slow Mails or Take Chances of Any Kind —Candidates Should Call in Person and Turn in Their Ballots and Subscriptions Saturday night, November 1, at 9 ~ o'clock. That is the magic day and hour. At that moment The Pioneer's Au- tomobile Circulation Campaign will olose, bringing to an end the great- est newspaper campaign that has yet -_stirred Bemidji and vicinity. Four days—ninty-six hours, yes, it can al- most be counted in minutes. And the candidates? Enthused to a point bordering on frenzy, aroused to the unprecendented opportunities that confront them, striving by dint of hard and earnest effort to rise, battling with every ounce of strength at their command to increase their reserve vote—that is the vivid pic- ture that today spreads over Bemidji and vicinity. Everywhere candidates are swarm- ing in eager and anxious quest for subscriptions that will bring them the big votes, and every hour that passes instills new energy into them. "= ——This campaign has evoked an intense interest, not only because of the many popular candidates who are en- tered but also because of the many handsome and valuable awards in store for the real workers. The few hours that remain before the call of “time” are being used to immense advantage by those who are deter- mined to win—and of these there are many. Their own pride and self- .. satisfaction in proving energetic enough to win over the fleld, and the desire to qualify the confidence and the loyal support of their friends are leading them forward, with never a glance behind, to the cherished goal. These workers pay no attention to frequent rumors that circulate with the hope of damaging effect. Mis- leading stories have but one object— to influence some candidates to re- tire for fear of passing someone else in the race. Such tales have no foundation whatever. It is obvious that no one can determine the ulti- mate result of this campaign. Kvery- one is equal. No one knows how many reserve votes another candidate may have. And every candidate is in the dark 48 to the number of votes their com- petitors may have. Therefore, no matter what may be said regarding the chances of any particular candi- date, it is solely their own opinion. Other candidates +probably have equally as substantial a reserve vote, hence there is nothing to fear. Courage and downright hustle are the two main things to observe. Votes are the only things that will win the prizes, and every candidate should— and, for that matter are—taking it upon themselves to annex just as many of these as are within their power between now and the final hour. They can be gotten most any- where. The territory is unlimited, and the present vote offer, which comprises positively the last offer of the campaign, aliows and makes pos- sible wonderful gains in the stand- ing. The subscriptions are coming to the campaign office literally in hand- fuls, and, when it is consiaered that all the candidates are sharing in this work the final outcome will, no doubt, be exceedingly close. CAMPAIGN JUDGES. Final count of the votes that will determine the winners of prizes in the Bemidji Pioneer’s $3,500 campaign will be in charge ] of five prominent Bemidiji business { men. President M. W. Deputy, normal school president. D. S. Mitchell, New York Life Insurance company representative. G. W. Harnwell, manager St. Hilaire Lumber company. W. L. Brooks, cashier Northern National bank. E. A. Barker, proprietor Bark- er's Drug and Jewelry store. These gentlemen will take pos- session of the ballot box Saturday, November 1, 1919, and no one connected with The Pioneer will have any hand in counting the votes. Rules Governing Close 0f Campaign. Candidates cannot be too careful about sending their ballots so that they will reach the campaign depart- ment before 9 p. m. Saturday, No- vember 1, and as a matter of precau- tion, every one of them, especially living outside of the city of Beidji, should read and weigh each line of what we have to say. We would dislike to see any candi- date lose a single vote because of the excitement which is suer to occur during the last few hours of the cam- paign, or Because of some misunder- standing on their part. It is impos- sible for you to exercise too much caution in arriving at a full under- standing of the rules and conditions governing the closing of the cam- paign. First—All votes and remittances, no matter at what time mailed, must be received in the office of the cam- Daign department of The Pioneer be- fore 9 p. m. Saturday, November 1.
