THE BEMIDJI PIONEER, which
fathered the Street boom, and
appears to be proud Of the fact,
does not see in Watson's can

the success of the Beltraml

is too much imbued with the idea
that Street is infallible. Editor
Greeley should learn the folly of
wearing magnifying glasses in
his spectacles.

The Fosston Thirteen Towns

The Fosston Thirteen Towns
started out last week on it's
nineteenth volume, and the ninth
year under its presentpublisher,
A. w. Foss. Historically the
time is short, but in the eyes of
pioneers the time is long. Then
Fosston was in the very limit of
civilization with the roughness
of the frontier in evidence on all
sides. But the primeval forests
to the east was brushed aside by
hardy woodsmen and the prair-
les to the west sprang into
farms beneath the gentle magic
of the pillow and harrow. So that
now Fosston is a prosperous
little city with refinement and
comforts to the highest degree
everywhere visible. And in this
change, the Thirteen Towns has
lent willing hand and is entitled
to a seat to the right whenever
the pioneers of the New North
hold a publication banquet.

MISSION OF THE SENTINEL.

TIOR SEVERAL months the
u public has been wondering
just what field the Bemidji SEN
tinel was trying to fill in a com
munity already covered by two
newspapers. Some imagined it
was merely memorial to Ed-
ward D. Nell, who wrote an early
history Of Minnesota. But at
last the mission Of the new what
is it," has been revealed. The
lurking serpent in the shrubbery
has poked forth its head and the
forked tongue and glittering
beady eyes are plain targets for
the s'seed of woman.
Last week the Sentinel came
out openly as an opponent to w.
r. Street, and intimates that it's
mission on earth is to sting his
ambitions to death, should he
run for county attorney or state
senator, or any other office. A
few years ago the News came
into existence for the same pur-
pose, but while it's poison was
most virulent, Mr.. Street car
ried d charm which made him
proof against the savage fangs OF
the enemy. But the Sentinel is
young and it's fangs are not
dulled with age, SO it hopes to
make a success Of what the News
made q failure.
We are really sorry to see the
new paper crouching to the com
mand Of d few fool friends. Had
it pursued an independent ca
reer, fair to all men, and waited
for d footing before II began to
dictate the affairs Of the county,
it might have made more favor.
able impression Under such
a career it was sailing while d.
K. Mcpherson, its founder, was
at the helm. But piratical pol
icy boarded the ship and Capt.
Mcpherson jumped overheard
and swan ashore, escaping with
life and honor. Now it has
placed itself forward as a polit-
ical sheet to boom the private
fortunes of a small faction and to
cut the throats Of public men
who have gained and will hold.
the confidence OF the people.
When its mission is known, the.
Sentinel will cut few throats and
little ice. So far, the Sentinel
has had excellent backing, in

TT is HOUSEKEEPING TINE.

before closing court last
- week Judge McClenahan ls
credited with advising Bemidji
to start housekeeping in it's at
fairs or he would invoke the SER
vices OF the grand jury with Its
mop and broom. The criticism
was just and no doubt meant for
the welfare Of the toWnand conn-
ty. The long criminal calendar
| to which Bemidjl generously
contributed is certainly hnmili-
ating to every honest citizen. II
gives the whole town a black eye,
whether we deserve it or not.
The need Of an iron hand has
long been felt in the SUPPRESSION
Of vice here, but it was lacking.
It is no use to beWail the follies
OF the past, but ~ Is wise 20 re-
member the past in studying
the needs of the present. Inthe
past vice has made a kite Of state
laws and village ordinances The
worst criminals Of the north have
been permitted to call Bemidji
their home. Resorts where
Knockout drops spouted were
given fatherly protection. These
are facts upon which Judge Nc
Clenahan probably based his
manifesto.
Already the village president
and council have shown a com
mendable zeal in reforming these
abuses. Just how far they will
carry this work depends, we
suppose, upon the encourage
ment they receive from the pub
lie. Public officials are but SER
wants Of the people, and we can
not expect officials to travel
faster than public sentiment. IL
the public favor sWide-open"
or aclose-shut' policy they can
usually get it by making their
wants known.
We understand that a move
ment is on foot among private
citizens to close up the gambling
dens. But we fail to see much
public sentiment back Of it. AS
long as public sentiment is not
strong enough to keep high of
ficials and prominent citizens
from being regular customers Of
such resorts, il is folly to war
against the shops themselves.

With sudden rise at Bagger's

~ You KIN Hogs on the Farm Do rt
IN Way That Is Neither Cruel
Nor DemoraIizinE.

The season for hog killing will soon
be present on every farm, and then
we shall see repeated the usual cruel,
heartrending scenes of mans
thoughtless inhumanity. Three or
four men and boys, and perhaps a
yelping dog, will lay siege to the
doomed animal, and with much ado
will catch and throw the beast, which
meantime rends the air with his
squealing as though crying Justify for
mercy; and when at last the knife
has been driven home and the ar
teries severed, all at once the quiet
nGss of death prevails, the hog arises.
totters about awhile, CHASTITY blood
pouring from the wound. the animal
gets weaker and weaker and finally
tumbles over and gives his last dy-
ing kick. The mans wife and chill
uren, and perhaps some of the chill
dren OF the neighborhood, have been
silent but horrified witnesses of the
direful scene. Now is this not de-
hghtful picture TO present for the
inspection of women and children?
AND is 1t not enneisci.iiTT;ss 70 81 81 ,=ho
witness it? If there could be a great
err exhibition of mans apparent cruel
ty to animals, and one that is more
likely to create a feeling in the young
of disregard for things that are gen
tie and kindly, ] do not know where
to look for it. True; swine must be
slaughtered; but let it be done in de-
cency. When a lad 1 witnessed swine
killing at sn abattoir, and I regarded
the method so wicked that I never
forgot it, but really It was no worse
than this. The animals were in

One with hog hook would catch an
animal under the jaw, an assistant
would help him raise the head m.
and the third would do the sticking.
~hen the hog was dragged to chute
and tumbled down e, kicking and
bleeding. a merciful way to kin a
hog is TO strike it in the head with =
suitable implement, producing stupor.
then Instantly Use the sticking knife.
This causes instant death. An animal
suffers more from fear than II does
from death itself. A neat, unobiec-
tionable method is to drop the omen
side OF a suitable long, narrow bog
down over the animal and then turn
box and animal upside down, when
the knife can do its work and the
box be rightcd again that the hog can
bleed properly. Humane men will be
apt TO pursue one of these better
methods; indeed, many Of them do
now; but II they viii not, they should
be thoughtful enough to have chill
dren absent from hog killing, that no
evil be done by bad example.-Pro-

SHELTER FOR STOCK.
The Northern or Western Farmer
Who Does Not Provide 1t Ii
Guilty OF wanton Cruelty.

There ought to be a law to prevent
farmers keeping more stock than
they can provide shelter for. But it
Is not always for want OF stable room
that many farmers allow their cat
tie and hogs to go without protec-
ton. In some cases it is nothing
short OF downright carelessness; in
Others something like ignorance. The
writer, OF course, has reference to
climates where shelter is needed.
and without which live stock is apt to
suffer. When the temperature falls
near zero, an animal will suffer more
than most people suspect from cold
rains and sleet, and being compelled
to sleep on the frozen ground. In
this neighborhood there is man
who is known as n good farmer as
well as thorough Christian. Last
IAN he built fine large sheep house
on his farm and as ne had only n
few sheep which he kept in the base
ment of his barn, allowed the sheen
house to stand idle all winter while
number of young cattle went with
out shelter of any kind. The onlv
excuse for this was that the sheen
house is little distance from his
dwelling house-too far to 90 to do
the feeding. Perhaps he might have
hired someone to do his feeding for
less than what he lost by allowing
his stock to go without shelter.-C T
