MARINE DIVER NORTON

the first signal. which was conveyed b,
means of line, was received, and /
second signal was given. Again ther,
was no response and the men We're IN,
structed co draw the man up with al
haste, This was done and In a few
moments the diver was on the deck Of
the tug, the work of removing the
metal hood requiring but very short
time.
| To the horror OF the men on the Men
dell II was found Norton had been
without air, and that he was breathing
his last when the hood was taken from
his head. He gasped for breath few
times. and then succumhed.
The failure of the air supply had
caused the swelling OF the head and
conseqent bursting OF the blood vessels,
and when the hood was removed the
unfortunate man was unconscious.
The accident was a great surprise to
the men aboard the tug. who state that
Norton had been down but few mo-
ments and who believed he could not
possibly have suffocated in the short
time elapsing after he disappeared be-
meath the water. It Is quite evident
that the air supply failed as soon as he
went over the side of the tug. and that
by the time he reached the river bot
tom he was helpless, as he failed TO
reply to the signals from above.
The body was brought to the city and
taken TO the morgue, Coroner Pohl
said last evening that he would en-

The democracy of the United
States is in national convention
at st. Louis, and it is believed
no nomination for president will
be made until Friday. Since the
clans gathered in st. Louis, sew
eral presidential possibilities have
been brought out, including Gray,
Gormon, Mcclellan, Cockroll and
others. There is considerable
Cleveland talk, but it is not
thought the ex-president will be
nominated. Parker is in the lead,
but there is doubts of his holding
the pace. 1t is the field against
Parker, and the opposition claims
to be Strong enough to defeat

Clean Politics.

There seems to be a disposition
in some quarters to throw dirt
in the preprimary campaign in
Beltrami county. The Pioneer
is glad to know that such I'M
seemly conduct cannot be charged
to the candidates themselves and
regrets that any newspaper
would stoop to such littleness.
We have put the primary law
upon the statute book in order
that we might all have an equal
voice in the nomination of the
men who are to run for office.
The Pioneer is persuaded that
the great ma ority of the people
of Beltrami county desire the
nomination and election of the
men who are best qualified to ill
the respective positions to which
they aspire. This is the test
which the candidate must under
go. If he has served the county
before, his record for efficiency
must be clear and the man who
has demonstrated his capacity
and fidelity is the man for the
people to employ for the future
if we can get him. The man or
the newspaper which has to
throw mud in order to secure
what it wants is pretty sure to
want something they ought not
to have.

SIS PER YEAR
To Better State High Schools

Minnesota is justly proud Of
It's high school system. It has
legislated that much money to
secure the results which are
attracting the attention of educa-
tors throughout the country.
The chiefest factor in making the
state high schools of Minnesota
the success that they are has
been the state school board, a
body with wide powers and lib
eral funds for distribution to the
schools which have met a GER
tain standard. The tendency
has been however to make the
high schools a place of training
for the university and the state
educational association has taken
up the matter of reform in this
respect. The high schools
should at the same time they
prepare boys and girls for college
prepare them for active life if
they cannot afford college
education. A meeting of a spec
ial mittee appointed by the
state educational association to
investigate this matter will be
held at the state capital next
Tuesday, the question will be
carefully studied and plans
formulated to effect the needed
reform. It cannot be accomp-
lished in a day, but the beginning
is praiseworthy.
