(By United Press. - Washington, “Sépt. ] Mmin).—%iefl g room_politi Cox’s. - charges: that’. tl - had aspired to raise a huge corrup- tion fund for the 1920 = campaign, ~William Boyce Thonipson, chairman _of the republican,ways and means committe, today salleged before the senate expenditires investigating . eommittee that “Cox is no stranger to- Wall Street and many big intet- ests there are supporting *him.” Another person on the stand was James W. Gerrard, democratic finan- cial chairman, who said the demo- crats will be satisfied with one mil- Yion dollars for the campaign ‘and gave the names of the contributors who gave in all $128,000. A num- ber of these contributors gave $5,000 each. ' ' Gerrard said that the democrats probably could use a fund of three millions but declared they would turn back to contributors the surplus of the three million. “Rich democrats are as scarce as hen’s teeth,” Gerrard said. He said there was no limit placed on contributions and named the following who gave $5,000 each: Bernard M. Baruch, August P. Bel- + mont, C. F. Alexander, Edward Bot- any and, Joseph Wallard. Baruck gave $1;500 in addition to the $5,000.° Among-other. $5,000 con- tributors was Franklin D. Roosevelt, vice-presidential nominee. Daniel C. Roper, former internal revenue collector, gave $500, the statement told. McAdoo gave $1,000. Secretary of War Baker gave $50, but was not to appear in the state- ment. . - No-federal officials will be asked for money, he said, but it was un- derstood that $275,000 would be spent for publicity and that Cox’s special train is costing $100,000. UNABLE TO' POLICE e TRACE HOLD-UP MAN 3 As et no trace has been found &f the man who held up the Erickson garage at Nymore early Monday morning, but the police are making every effort to locate the offender. " Dressed in a brown suit, felt hat, #nd with his face masked, the hold-up fnan entered the garage at 1:30 Mon- day morning. At the point of a re- volver he demanded the three per- gons in the garage to line up along the wall and come across with their money. Approximately ~ $40 in money and two watches were taken by the bandit. . With a threat that he would shoot the first one that tuck his head out the door before he had made his get-away, he made his exit. without touching the contents of -the safe. He has not been seen since, or at Jeast not recognized, although the description given the police may lead to recognition.’ It is be!ievgd to be the work, of someone living in the vicinity of Nymore. —_—_ “ARE YOU A MASON” IS A REAL LAUGH PRODUCER “Laugh and the world laughs with you.” - ‘When Ella Wheeler Wilcox wrote that line she expressed a great truth. It is on this principle that] Charlie Chaplin works and which en- ables him to earn a million dollars Qach year. Thruout the history of the stage it has always been the rule that comediens have been popular while the woe-be-gone “crepe-hang- “ere’ 'have justly suffered failure. The comedy ‘‘Are You, A Mason” or “How Father Joined the Lodge” proves this rule as it has always “‘drawn large audiences wherever it hag been presented.; The audiences have ever been enthusiastic in their commendation. “This celebrated comedy “will be geen at the G;and theatre ‘Wednes- day and Thursday, Sept. 29 and 30, under the auspices of the Ralph Gracle post of the American Legion. That organization is willing to vouch for the mirth producing qualities. MAYBERRY TO MEET .

W. Smith has’experienced a number of difficulties this fall in trying to arrange a schedule of foot- ball games for the local high school eleven. Bemidji’s aggregation will be of the usual high, standard this year and it is the object of the coach to schedule only such teams as’ will promise a good battle for the aggre- gation. Letters, telegrams and telephone calls to at least twenty high school elevens have ‘as yet brought very un- favorable returns. A few games have been scheduled and others are being carried tenatively with the hope that they may soon be added to the prog posed schedule. J Between twenty and twenty-five stalwart lads are appearing.each aft- ernoon after school for regular prac- tice. at the ball park and all are showing keen interest in developing midjl High. Dr. Diedrich, a University of Minnesota gridiron star, who has always’ help- ed Bemidji’s team toward victory, is coming out regilarly to assist in putting ‘over .a 'strong eleven this year. The boys are lining up well and the ‘probable material which will compose this year's team is as fol. lows: * ‘Russell Brooks, captain, full back; " Art Olson, left half; Walter Woock or: Perry Hulett. or Richard Cota, right half; Walter Higbe, quar- terback; Roy Stapleton, Albert Pow- ell and Rupert Stechman, ends; Max Boyce and Hovey Lord, tackles; John Koors, Philip Denwu, Steve opd ) Tharaldson, guards; and McDougall, center. ' With such material Bemidji is sure to have a winning team this year and even make a better record than that of last year,- The games now being arranged are as follows: International Falls, tentative, October 2; Grand Forks, 2 or 9, here; Detroit, October 16, here; Warren (tentativey Octcber 23 here; Thief River Falls, October 26 there: Cloquet, October 30,. there. Several others are under conmsidera- to arrive at a definite schedule as soon as possible. BAPTIST BIBLE CONFERENCE . HOLDS INSTRUCTIVE SESSION The Bible conference held in the Baptist church had a very inter- esting session yesterday. /Last{night Rev. Moyer preached on the ‘“Paral- lel Between the Living Word and the Written Word.” In-the afternoon a Bible' study was held on the ‘“Work of the Holy Spirit in the World”. It was explained that this is the work of conviction. He is in the world to conylict the world of the sin of un- belief: “Of sin, because they believe not on Me.” Preach against drunk- enness and theft and exeess and it 11‘:1115 offt most people like water off a duck, for they are not guilty of these things, but present the claims of Christ, and these differences are wiped -away. ~Unbelief makes com- mon company of all men, and s a bond that unites them togeiher—-a neapolis flash, to box before the Du- uth Athletic club on one of the main bouts of a classy card which will be _staged here on Friday eYening, Oct- ober 1, ‘at the Duluth Curling club arena, the officials of the D. A. C. have done a favor to both boys for the reason that it will give them a splendid opportunity to settle for all time the doubt that has been in the minds-of the fans regarding the res- pective ability of the two boys. Several weeks back Mayberry and Schwartz met in a Hibbing ring ic-a eontest that was scheduled to go ten Tounds. In the second round, when Doth boys were fighting hard, May- berry was hit in the body and put out of the running. The Morgan Park Yoy claimed he was fouled and refus- ed to continue. The referee did not gee any foul delivered and counted Mayberry out whilé the latter was on his feet protesting that he had been hit low. d SUBSCRIBE FOR THE | DAILY ‘PIONEER bond tiat would be recognized in no other way. Then He convicts of righteousness, not in the sense that the world has any righteousness, but because of where rightsousness is: “Of righteousness, because 1 go unto My Father.” The world cast out'the only righteous man who ever lived, the Lord Jesus, and God raised- Him from the place of shame and set Him on His own right hand in Heaven. Gon vindicated His son, and con- demned the world. The Hnly Spirit covicts .of judgment. Since-man is an unbeliever, and has no rignteaus- ness, there remains but condemna- tion, or judgment, and such convic- tion comes, because the prince of this world. = Satan himself, has been al- ready judged. The conviction of sin speaks of Christ crucified; the con- vietion of righteousness speaks . of Christ glorified; * the conviction of Judgment speaks of Christ coming again.
