DROW MING
At TURTLE
Ole Buck, Old Resident Oh
Turtle River Drowned
While Bathing.
BODY RECOVERED EARLY THIS
NJ ORNING.
Went Swimming Last Night Ant
Was Last Seen Alive At
Six O'clock.

Ole Buck, an old resident of
Turtle River village was drowned
in a small lake near the old town
site last night, while bathing.
The body was recovered this
morning.
Buck was about seventy years
of age. He left Turtle River alone
yesterday afternoon and went
to the lake. Several people pass
ing the spot saw him on the
shore about six o'clock and he
was making preparations to go
bathing. Nothing else was
thought of the matter until his
lifeless body was found floating
in the lake this morning. 1t was
recovered about forty feet from
the shore.
The theory Of the affair is that
Buck went swimming, and while
in the water was overcome by
cramps. Bathing was a favorite
pastime with him and he always
went to the small lake near the
townsite to indulge in it.
His clothing was found on the
bank of the lake. His watch and
small sum of money were the
only valuables he was known to
possess. CoronerHenderson went
to Turtle River shortly before
noon today as soon as the case
was reported to him.
Buck at one time conducted a
saloon at Turtle River. He has a
brother living in Blue Earth
county, who was communicated
with. Unless the body is ship
ped to Blue Earth for interment
it will probably be buried at the
expense of the county in this
citV.

Petition Prepared Asks For
Removal of Entire City
Police Force.
ENTIRE CITY is BY THE EARS
AS RESULT.
Connection of Local Officers With
Late School Election Said
to Be Responsible.

BemidJi has sensation on tap
today that for all around lurid-
ness and intense interest prom
Uses to be one of the real warm
things of the present season.
It's nothing more nor less than
a petition prepared for circula-
ton among the ladies of the city
which will ask the city council
for the removal of the entire 20,
lice force and charges miscon-
duct and coercion in connection
with the late school election.
The Pioneers information
comes from one of the most
prominent business men in the
city who was shown the pro
posed petition. Rumors of some,
thing of the sort have been rife
since the first of the week, but
the general opinion was that it
would never be undertaken.
The influences directly respon-
sible for the petition are said to
be the ladies of the city who took
an unusually keen interest in
the late school election and
won a very decisive victory.
They were unable to withstand
the spectacle of the officers OF
the local police force hustling in
votes from the down town dis
tr1ct and appear to be sincere in
the belief that the officers should
be removed.
The police force so far as its
duties is concerned is with this
one exception unquestionably one
OF the best in the state but there
is much bitter criticism of the
interest displayed by the officers
in the several local fights of a
political nature which have re-
Gently made life worth living.
The Pioneer has been unable
to secure copy of the petition
today. It has,. however, been
draughted and is in the hands OF
the people who propose to circu-
late it. 1t is proposed to secure
only the signatures of ladies I'M
der the latest arrangement and
It's promoters believe that it will
demonstrate the sentiment of the
ladies and will be a rebuke to
the officers that will be felt in
more ways than one.
The petition is the one general
topic of discussion about the
news centers of the city today
and various stands are being de-
veloped on the matter. Feeling
is intense and the circulation of
the document it is generally con-
coded will not tend to allay the
bitterness engendered by the
aftermath Of the school election
fight.

County Belongs in Sixth In
stead of Ninth Congress
si0nal District.
MANY PEOPLE ARE ANXIOUS
FOR THE CHANGE.
Claimed Interests Could Be Better
Looked After in Buchanan
BaliWick.

Beltrami county is in the
wrong congressional district. At
least this seems to be the con-
viction Of a number of prominent
people in Bemidji, who do not
disguise the fact that they be-
iieve the county's interests
could be better served in Con
gresham Buckman's baliwick,
the Sixth, and who will make an
effort to have the county placed in
the new Sixth district at, the
next session of the state legis-
lature.
just what reason there was
for placing Beltrami county in
Ninth district under the last re-
apportionment no one seems to
be prepared to state. Little
thought was given the matter
at that time, but recently it has
been given some consideration
and it has been decided that Bel
trami county ought to be in the
Sixth.
Of the twelve counties in the
Ninth Beltraml is the only tim
Der county. All the other
counties are in a prairie country
and local needs in the way of
Legislation are apt to be over
looked by a congressman who
has district whose needs are so
diversified. Drainage is some
thing that would be of vast bene.
fit to many sections of Beltrami
county, but the problem Of secur-
ing it when government money
for the same purpose is in de-
mand in the older counties to the
east is not a small one. Beltrami's
recognition in the Ninth can be
small to say the least for some
years to come. Now in the Sixth
they say it would be different. It
is said that if the county were in
the Sixth this year it might be in
a. PDSIUlOu w l1dulc UIlO llcAU COu-
gresham and there are many
shoulders in this vicinity broad
enough to wear a congressional
toga. The interests of the coun-
ties making up the Sixth SO far
as congressional Legislation are
concerned are Identical with
those Of Beltrami county and
there is unquestionably strong
sentiment in this city favoring
the change.
Already the rotation of the con-
gressional honor is being figured
out in the Sixth. It will be
Buchanan this term and Ripley
Brewer, of St. Cloud in two years
more SO they say and after that
if Beltrami county were in the
Sixth there might be a chance
for the right kind Of home talent
from this county. Anyhow, the
proposition of change is inter
esting and it's merit might bear
closer Investigation.

CHRISTIANS IN JAPANESE PUB
 LiC LIFE.

While a company of Japanese is re- ported engaged in Investigating the character and influence of Christianity upon the lives of the people in this country and England, with a view to reporting their conclusions to the gov ernment at home, it is interesting to learn that many Japanese among the lowly are embracing Christianity as individuals on their own initiative. In Japan today according to the New York Christian Advocate, one member of the imperial cabinet, two judges of the supreme court, two presidents Of the lower house of parliament and three vice presidents of state are chris tians. In the present parliament the president and thirteen members in a total membership of 300 are Christians. Tn the army there are 155 Christian of- ficers, or per cent of all: and the two largest battleships in the Japanese navy are commanded by Christians. In Tok'o three of the eight daily papers have Christians editors. In the light of these figures, and of the reports Christian missionaries in Japan are sending home the alleged yellow periF' does not look as ominous as it might. = Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

 I know it will make old folks feel young and weak folks feel strong.
 I want all persons who feel they aIe in need of a tonic to drop the use of alcoholic drinks of all kinds and take Paw Paw in its place. People don't crave for stimulants when the stomach and nerves are in healthful condition. Munyon's Paw Paw gives exhilaration without intoxication.

 While all my customers who have used Hyomei agree that it is remark ably successful in curing catarrh and other diseases of the air passage" says H. Goodman. 'yet there has been con- siderable diversity of opinion as to how the name is pronounced"
 ''Hyomei is pronounced just as if it were spelled 'high me, with the ac- cent on tho first syllable"
 "A great many come to my store and instead of asking for Hyomei, tell me they want q package Of the Urea = ment for 1atarrh that I am selling on a guarantees"
 While l know what they mean, and all of my clerks will give them Ilyomei, yet I want everyone 10 know how to pronounce the name of Hyomei. so that they may run no chance of getting my - thing hut Hyomei, no matter where they go.
 Tt is natures true cure for catarrh- al troubles. It kill the germs of this disease, soothes and heals the Irritated mucous membrane, and effectuaIly drives all catarrhal poisons from the system.
 All the stomach dosing in the world can do no lasting good in the treat ment of catarrh unless the nose and throat are free from catarrhal microbes There is no stomach dosing with Hy- omei; just breathe it.
 T hnve so much confidence in the value of the treatment, that I am sell ing 1t with the understanding that I will return the money if 1t fails to cure. All The Republican readers know that do exactly as I agree"
