The M. and s. Telephone co.

This company is showing consid-
cradle activity just now i'll the way
of general Improvements.
Good. heavy poles are being plac-
ed in the town, this being made
necessary because Of the increased
number of wires running into the
Monterey switch.
We notice new extension now
being built to Sheriff Arbogast's on
the franklin road, on which Rev.
RI Eutsler. A. &. Judy, } Ed Ar
bogast and II a Slaven will have
phones.
The third line lately put mp be-
tween here and Mcdowell is for
the Bullpasture river line, thereby
doing away with the switch at Me-
Dowell. Every line now runs in
to Monterey.
We understand that the Monte
rev and Pendleton systems are not
on speaking terms at present, De-
cause Pendleton refuses to bear it's
part Of the costs of keeping the
switch at Crabbottom. We hope
that communication may soon be
re-establshed between the two sys-
tens.
The holes have been dug and the
poles gotten out for the repair of
the line between Mcdowell and
Waycross. This line will be
doubled.
An extension of the Bath coun-
tv line will soon be made III this
county to Trimble.
We are pleased to note the grad
ual improvement taking place IN
our system, The county can now
boast Of as extensive connections
as are found ia any county, for on
all four sides are we connected
with the world about Us. and the
services we believe to be as good as
anv county system furnishes.

A startling incident, is narrated by
John Oliver of Philadelphia, as follows:
Il was IN an awful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue
coated, pain continually in back and
Sdes, no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicians had given me
up. Then | was advised to use Electric
Bitters; to my great joy, the first DO tie

results will follow his introduc-
ton.

A Large Fish Hawk.

Mr. S L Simmons, a few days ago
killed fish hawk near his home at
Forks Of Water the like of which
for size has never before been seen
in this country. 1t measured 8 feet
s inches from tip to tip of wings.
We have an idea that the indict-
ments that could be found against
him for fishing ont of season would
Gil many large books, but he went
once too often. and so it will be
with all fishermen who fish out of

Too Late.

IF you lose your watch, your
ring or your pocket-book. there is
a chance Of its being recovered. If
not, you Can replace lit. 1t is not
this way with your Eyesight. If
that is lost, it is lost forever. You
cannot obtain a duplicate. Every
symptom Of eye strain is a warn
ing from nature that you are dong
a permanent injury. Every time
that you read until your headaches,
YOU are making your condition
just that much worse. If your
eyes tire easily, they need atten-
ton. Forcing them to work with
out help will positively break them
down. BY using glasses now, you
will keep your eyes strong and
we'll. If you wait too long, you
will have to wear glasses every
and even then your vision
will be unsatisfactory. "A stitch

THE CANNY NIGHT
Tonight Is Halloween and 1t
Will Be Observed in
Bemidji.

Tonight is Hallowe ZEN, when
according to an ancient and time
|honored Scottish tradition the
grave yards give up their dead
and the spirits of the departed
roam about the earth and amuse
themselves by playing all sorts
of FRANKS upon the defenseless
public. Halloween has always
been something Of an occasion in
Bemidji and elaborate prepare
tions are being made by the
young people to celebrate the oc-
casion in the usual way tonight.
Many a small boy has been busy
today Matching out dark plots
which the sunrise Of tomorrow
will reveal. There will be a mum
Der Of ghost parties and taken all
in all the night will be properly
observed. In past years there
has been much malicious mis-
chief, but special officers will be
on duty tonight and they will do
all they can to keep the mischief
makers within legitimate bounds.

Bow Wow is Missing.

A big. Newfoundland dog who
was formerly the property of
Catherine Petrie, of the town of
Liberty, and who may or may
not be dead, has been causing all
sort of trouble the past two days,
Mrs. Petrie says the animal was
killed and that Samuel Hays
otficiated at the execution and
last sad rites. Judge Skinvik
wrestled with the problem yes
terday morning and the hearing
at times was decidedly warm
and is said TO have developed
proclivities not unlike those of
the Donnybrook fair before it
was finally brought to a close
and a change of venue taken from
Skinvik's court. This morning
Judge Reynolds sat in the mat
ter and the contending parties
were heard in court. The iudg-
ment of the court was that the
plaintiff should receive nothing
in the action and that the defend
ant should have Judgment for the
costs. The hearing did not de-
velop whether the dog was living
or dead, but for the sake of all
concerned it is hoped that the
the animal is no more.

'Rumor to Effect That Leech
Lake Lands May Not be
Placed on Sale.
1T is SAID THAT THEY MUST
FIRST BE RE.ENLISTED.
The Work of Re-estimating Would
Take Until March at
the Least.

] %
The Pioneer has it on excellent
authority that Chief Estimator
Ed Warren has been. instructed
to hold himself in readiness to re
estimate the whole Of the pine OF
the Leech Lake reservation. Ii
this is true it indicates that the
big sale of pine on the coded
lands of the Leech Lake and
parts Of the Chippewa of the
Mississippi and Winnibigoshish
reservations may not be held on
the 5th of December as so ex-
tensively advertised.
The pine to be placed on sale
December 5th is estimated at
over 100000, 900 feet and the sale
will attract the attention of the
numbering world. Should the
sale be postponed there will be a
great hullabaloo.
The Pioneer has it's informa-
ton from gentleman who is not
in public life but who is in close
touch with the high officials OF
the interior department in this
part of the country. This gentle
man declares that Chief EST
mator Ed Warren has practically
been informed that an estimation
of the Leech Lake district is
necessary. Such an estimate
would take until next spring and
would probably postpone the sale
one year.
It is possible that the rumor
applies to the Leech Lake reser-
vation alone and not to the Chip
pewa of the Mississippi or to the
Winnibigoshish, nevertheless the
bulk of the pine is on the Leech
Lake reservation.

til Nov. 6, for the purpose of

The Man From Grand Rapids
Speaks His Mind Most
Vigorously.
SOUNDS HIGH THE PRAISES OF
JUDGE SPOONER.
Declares That All Parties Should
Endorse Judges McClennahan
and Spooner,

When Senator G. G. Mccarthy
Of Grand Rapids speaks there
can be no doubt whatever as to
his meaning. IfPresident Roose-
velt has not got his eye on the
senator he has been missing
something very good indeed for
the man from Grand Rapids is
as strenuous as they make them.
There has been a deal of specu-
lation aas to- what would be
Senator Mccarthy S position in
the election of successor to
Judge Spooner Of this city next
fall. Mccarthy was a likely can
didate for the judgeship last
spring and many were surprised
and nota few disappointed that
he was not appointed. Gossip
said that he would be a candidate
for the place next year and a
most lively fight was anticipated.
Senator Mccarthy was in the
city yesterday nconnection with
the Whetstone-B Bryant shooting
at Cass Lake, having been re-
tanned as Bryant's counsel, and
was approached by aPioneer
man in regard to the judgeship.
The senator's remark left no
room for doubt. He declared:
.sNo better thing could happen to
the fifteenth judicial district than
the reelection of Judge McClen-
nahan and Judge Spooner. |
shall do everything within the
limit of my power to accomp-
lish the reelection Of both gentle
men. No man knows what hour
may find his every interest
weighed in the hand of Judge
and we cannot be too careful in
the selection Of the men whom
we place on the bench. In judges
McClennahan and Spooner the
district has two men of unusual
ability, learned in the law and OF
unimpeachable integrity. All
parties should unite in endorsing
them for return to the bench. "
Speaking of Judge Spooner
Senator Mccarthy said: 81
should be happy indeed were |
so able a lawyer as Judge
Spooner. He is one man among
thousands and If the people of
the fifteenth judicial district love
justice he will be returned to the
bench without a dissenting
voice
