HARDING ‘And now we are told that Mr. Harding will demand that| merit shall control in the appointment of postmasters, but hints that the proper time to start that system will be after all those recently appointed Democratic postmasters are given [their walking tickets and replaced by Republicans. Rational and rea- sonable surely, if it be a political system that is desired. If efficiency is desired then a splendid method to weed out the unfit would be to require all present postmasters as well as all future postmasters to pass such an examination as would ensure the culling out of all inefficient men, whether they be of Re- publican, Socialist, Bull Moose, Democrat or any other stripe of politics. How would our educational system work out along politi- and all members of the cluyb and ! Bemidji on:Friday to atend the Elks cal lines? And yet, in the sight of Washington, the postoffice department requires a cabinet officer at its head known as post- ‘master general, while education is pleased to be jammed into a .. commission as one part of a cabinet portfolio. So it would ap- pear the postoffice department is of more importance than the department of education. Why be so particular about the quali- fications of a teacher and so careless about those of a post- master? . ; Mr. Harding has a splendid opportunity to recognize merit in our Bemidji postoffice right now. "No Democratic postmaster is in the way to be removed. The present postmaster has al- ready resigned and the way is open for Mr. Harding to:-recog- nize merit. Will he do it? , We’ll watch and see. molne Sopbuns o 5 WHY THE LIMITATIONS? . Pending before the state legislature is a bill introduced to legalize boxing in cities of the second and third class, and vil- lages of over 5,000 population in Minnesota, and unless prompt action is taken by such cities as Bemidji and others of the fourth class, the bill will undoubtedly pass as it now stands, The Boy- len bill, as we see it, gives the range villages a big advantage over even larger places. If Chisholm and Hibbing can have boxing matches, which they will have if the bill passes, why can’t Bemidji have the same privilege? Bemidji should not be locked out because it.is a city of the fourth class. A number of local organizations, boosters for good sport, have already be- seeched their representatives and senators in the legislature to amend the bill to include cities of the fourth class. The support of all other such organizations will undoubtedly be needed at once if fourth-class cities are not to be discriminated against. g CLIP THE COUPON Farmers and other settlers in Beltrami county who are anxious to put over the land clearing program outlined for this gection are urged to clip out the coupon in this issue of The Pioneer and send it in at once to the secretary of the Land Clear- ing association in order that he may ascertain as soon as pos- sible how much dynamite will be required to accomplish the amount of clearing planned for this half of the county. Dyna- mite will be supplied at cost and an expert will assist the farmers in blasting the stumps. Why not get behind the movement started by the association and make more cleared acres? Cut out the coupon, fill it out and send it in at once. s U g FEF It is very sad to learn that that high-daddy interview with William Hohenzollern was not authorized by the once-upon-a- time All Highest, but was merely an “alleged” interview and ‘“nothing but a breach of faith.” We did so love those refer- ences to Martin Luther, and Walter von der Vogelweide, and the Nibelungen, and all the rest. But—poor Old Bill! “My peo- ple,” he !amented, “has betrayed itself, its Gott, und ME!” And now he is betrayed by young Heinie Petermeyer, who used to be the tutor of the Bentinck boys at Amerongen.
