PAGE SIX THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 11, 1919 COLD 70 BOLSHEVISM “Reds” Unable to Gain Converts in Denmark. Tendency ls to Regard Them as Mere Anarchist Rabble—Merchants Not Helpless. London.—Bolshevism has not ob- talned so strong a hold in Denmark as 1t has in Norway, writes a Copenhagen correspondent of the widely-read Brit- ish weekly, Common Sense. In Den- mark the syndicalists strive to play much the same role as do the left- - soclalists In Norway, who are reported to be supporters of the Russian brand of socialism. “The syndicalists, however, make no show In the Danish parliament,” says the correspondent. “Since the riots in Copenhagen last November, when the Grontory district in the center of the city was wrecked and many scores of civilians and policemer were Injured, there has been a tendency to regard them as a mere anarchist rabble. But, as everywhere in Scandinavia, thelr power over the wage earners is greater than their voting strength, and they have succeeded, usually against the Assoclation of Trades Unions, which has a large majority behind it, in bring- ing about prolonged strikes. “The Danish syndicalists, by violent attacks on the majority socialist party and denunciation of its leaders, Staun- ing and Borgbjerg, have gained a cer- tain pull among the wage earners. “The syndicalists’ connection with the Russian bolsheviki has been re- peatedly indicated. This gave the cabinet a good excuse for repression 80 that arrests, press prosecutions and expulsions take place on a scale incon- celvable in Sweden or Norway, where the left-socialists have the rank of rec- ognized parties. “Further, the Danish employers are not helpless. They threaten a great lockout, declaring If the wages de- manded go beyond a certaln point, they will cease manufacturing and will import and sell cheaper foreign goods.” SEEKS ART TREASURES Mr. Saverio Rossl, a great lover of fine paintings and the holder of several of the world's greatest masterpieces, has sailed for Italy in search of some works of art which he will exhibit in this country upon his return here. MAN’S BOTTLES HIS UNDOING John Paluso Had So Many It Seemed to Be Sign He Expected a Long, Hard Winter. New Kensington, Pa.—Whisky every- where and every drop to drink, was the motto of John Paluso of this city until the state troopers swooped down on his cache and despoiled him of his hoard. The troopers were looking for red propaganda. They found “red” liquor. Every stove In Paluso's house, and there were three of them, was filled with bottles of bonded whisky. The stove pipe had its quota, the chimney its share, more bottles reposed in Pa- luso’s bed, at least thirty were im- 'mersed in the rain barrel, the half- filled barrel of pork in the cellar had not been neglected and the old-fash- ioned clock had no room for the long pendulum to swing, for a bottle was there, too. SWEDEN PLANS WOMAN LAWS Provision for Their Employment by the Government One of Pro- posed Measures. ‘Washington.—The Swedish govern- ment has announced a number of im- portant legislative measures to be tak- en up by the 1920 riksdag, the state department has been advised. Improvement of the status of mar- ried women, provision for the govern- ment employment of women, develop- ment of the principle of the arbitra- tion board. penal law reforms, electri- fication of railroads and open voting in the riskdag are mentioned in an offi- cial communique issucd by ernment. the gov- IDENTIFICATION, Little brother’s chum appeared un- ceremoniously in the parlor where big sister was entertaining her Sunday afternoon beau. “Is Bobby home?” he wished to know. No, Bobby was not at home, and then, oh, unfortunate im- pulse, big sister, desiring to show her visitor her sweet graciousness, even in the bosom of her own family, solici- tously inquired: “Who shall I tell him called?” Bobby’s .chum twisted his cap, doubtless unaccustomed to such rare courtesy, and, desiring to identify him- self to his chum while remaining in- cognito to these queer adults, at length replied: “If you'll just tell him that the guinea pig’s got the little ones, then he'll know who it was that called.” An Indefinite Stay. “Here’s a modern wedding an- nouncement.” “What about it?” “It says the happy couple will live at the home of the bride’s parents un- til they can find a house or a flat they can rent.” A Queer Result. “The etiquette of presentation to royalty produces an odd reverse in people.” : “How so?” “They are anxlous for the honor, but when they are introduced, they in- variably back out.” HE"'WAS COMPLIMENTARY, “If I give you one kiss will you be satisfied ?” 'No, I expect the -nwlo to assay better than that.” That Grim Superiority. And there’s & man who oft will strike Our minds with cruel dread Because we do not chance to like Some book that he has read. The Season Is Now Open. Farmer—You say that man comes out every year to hunt and that he is a good hunter. Second Farmer—I should say so; he always pays me for my cows in ad- vance, too. Complete. Marks—I had no idea your new house; was finished. Parks—Oh, yes. Not only finished, but all my friends have had time to tell me how much better it might have been, Sight and Sound. o “Children should be seen and not heard.” “Yes,” replled the tired business man; “and the same thing applles to a great many of the musical shows.” Couldn’t Afford It. Hewitt—Do you believe In physical culture? y Jewett—No; I joined a class once and 1 outgrew my clothes like a blamed kid. i No Wonder. “I understand the critics have made your poetic friend angry.” “How so?" “By their running comments on his fugitive poetry.” The Way of It. “What occupation does Blobs pur sue?” “Quite a number but I don’t think he’s caught up with any one yet.” COMPLIMENTARY OR OTHER- WISE. ““He's a perfect bear.” “Do you refer to his anms or his temper.” But He Got It. Her hatpin was protruding, And It caught him in a joint; She said she meant it for a joke, But he didn’t see the point. The Reason. i She—Why do people have to keep 8o quiet when they go fishing? He—B~~ause to catch 'em one must fish with, bated breath. Sympathetic. Mr. Smart—I give my voice for a permanent standing army. Mrs. Dull—Why don’t you want the poor things to sit down? ‘| Potatoes Lost Experiences. “I wonder what cotton gin could have tasted like?” “1 guess it was the kind that left the woolly taste in your mouth.” More Shape. A boy was presented with some young guinea pigs by his father’s friend. Meeting the boy soon after, the friend inquired about the pets. “Well, Robbie, how are the guinea plgs getting on; are they In good shape?” “They are just the same shape, only bigger."—Osteopathic Magazine, Disappointed. Bride—Sometimes I think that you don’t love me any more. Groom—Why, I love you just the same as ever. Bride—Then I was right; you don't love me any more than you did and I thought your love would grow—boo hoo! Not Even Started. “What remedy do you suggest for our economic ills?” “None. I haven't even been able to discover an absolutely reliable remedy for a cold.” A Consideration. “Why don't you want Jibbs? 1 think he 1s a promising man for your idea.” “Maybe so0, but this is a paying prop- ositton.” Heiping the Author. Jones—Well, did you get a check from your publisher? Bones—Yes, just a card saylng: “Give us a rest!”—Cartoons Maga- zine. Her Experience. He—I see where a lot of military prisoners have gone on a hunger strike. She—TI'll bet none of 'em is mar- ried. Advice, Remember this, when duty cllll It never pays to shirk; You're dodging opportunity When you are dodging work, She Was Particular. Psmear, the Painter—That 1s your full-length portrait—just finished. Mrs. Newgilt—H'm! The dress fits pretty well in front. Turn the canvas around and let me see how it hangs in the hack. BITTER THOUGHTS. Mrs, Pester—Have you forgotten . Clubs in English Villages. More than 350 English villages have organized branches of the Village Clubs assoclation, a union of rural community socleties through which it is planned to make country life more attractive. In each of these communities, club- houses have been constructed varying in size and appointment from a sim- ple reading room, which may also be made to serve as a general meeting place, to Nettlebed’s pretentious vil- lage hall, which offers men’s and wom- en’s dressing rooms, library, reading and billiard rooms, a play shed, skittle alley, rifle range, kitchen and cookery school. In the organization of these clubs, four points are given prime consider- ation—the eligibility of both women and men to membership, that the clubs shall be nonpolitical and nonsectar- fan and that they shall be adminis- tered by a committee elected by the members. Only Thing His Own. “I wonder will Smithers always al- lude to his wife so lovingly as ‘my own’?” “Well, she is his own. Everything else In his home he is paying for on the installment plan.” — Pearson’s Weekly. Joua that this is our wedding annivers- ary?” Mr. Pester—What & pessimist you are to brood over such subjects. His Knowledge. While belng questioned about her first day of school, Elsle, the small daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chauncy Gelvin, confided to her grandmother: “What bothered me most was that George (her teacher) knows so much more than I do.” Tact. “I suppose this bread of mine is not to your liking.” “It makes me pity father when he had to eat the kind mother used to make.” Naturally. “There is no use in splitting hairs fn that argument.” “Why not?” “Because it is over bald facts.” " Sure Thing. “It was ‘a silk umbrella,” sald the hotel boarder, “and it had a Tong rose- wood handle that was hooked in the end.” “That’s nothing,” sald the hotel clerk. “I had an umbrella with a gold handle once, and it was hooked in the end, too.” | Bemidji Market Quotations Chicago, Dec. 11.—Potato receipts today were 25 cars.
