PARALYSIS OF INDUSTRY.

TransvaaI and Orange River Colony In
Poor. Financial Condition..
johannesburg, March 3.-Lord Mil
ner, British high commissioner inSouth
Africa, in delivering the presidential
address before the intercolonial coun-
Gil for the Transvaal and Orange River
Colony, revealed the grave financial
condition of the colony. He said de-
felt amounting to $5,000,O00 was due
to the shrinkage in railroad receipts
and the general paralysis of industry,
while almost all Of the $150,000,000
loan has already been expended on
railroads, the repatriation of the Beers
and the development of the country.
Their only resources now were pa
thence and economy. Lord Miner
said he was not dismayed and that he
hoped for improvements when an
adequate supply of labor was forth
coming

FORTHE, WEAL OF THE CITY.

The nomination Of Mayor Lud-
ington and the members of the
retiring council at the village
caucus last evening insures the
elimination of the bitter personal
feeling which has marked the
last:few days of the campaign.
The contest now becomes simply
q personal one between Mayor
.Lndington and Mr.. Stoner; both
gentlemen are personally popular
and have hosts of friends, both
have lived long in Bemidji and
have extensive interests here.
The election of either means the
administration of the city with
an eye single to the best interests
of:the whole people.
This is the point for which the
Pioneer has contended from the
first. Desperate attempts were
made to secure a ticket pledged
to support the private interests
ofsindiYdual men but after vain
attempt to get together ticket
of this kind the attempt was yes
terday totally abandoned and all
the strength heretofore devoted
to pushing private interests was
thrown to Mayor Ludington and
his colleagues.
Had not the present admins
tration refused steadfastly at
first to be again candidates for
reelection there would probably
have been but one ticket in the
field. The business men of Be-
midi demand ticket whose
members are unpledged to any
faction or individual. The gen
tleman who are now candi-
dates for. election, both the mem
bers Of the present administra-
ton and others, are representa-
tive business men Of the city un-
questioned integrity and incapa-
BILE of pledging themselves to pri-
vate parties.
While the candidate which the
Ploneerhls supported for mayor
was not nominated at the eau Gus
last night every principle for
which this paper has contended
has been carried out. The con-
test from this time on becomes a
purely personal one.

The charge that the Pioneer
has attacked the members of the
present council, assailing their
integrity as men and their record
as officials is supremely ridicu-
lous and is made solely for politi-
cal purposes. The Pioneer has
never at any time alluded to the
present council in any way other
than plimentary. The article
quoted to sustain the charge con
cerned we'll known public enter
prises like that of the commercial
club which have come to naught
for obvious reasons. At the time
it was published the members Of
the present council were not can
didates for re-electio n but were
insisting positively and repeat
eddy that they would under no
circumstances stand for re-elec-
ton.

CITY POLITICS
Wr,ira~'g f~,trG,

J. r. Hennessy appears to have
a clear field to himself for con-
stable and no one has yet been dis
covered who desires the exercise
Of going up against him.
The air is full today of rumors
of independent candidates for
various offices but there is little
that can be discovered for a GER
tainty. The contest between
Mayor Ludington and M. d.
Stoner promises to be a warm
one although one that is entirely
friendly.
A. Gilmour will be an independ-
ent candidate for justice of the
peace and will give the other can
didates something to think about
until the votes are counted. Mr..
=Gilmour is one Of the oldest resi-
dents of the city and is known to
all and well liked in all quarters.
He will make vigorous cam
paign.

not yet extended TO wholesale jobbing

evidences of increased activity in any

poor comparisons with last year, it is
worthy of note that few presidential

In the leading manufacturing indus

Fall River, Mass, May 13.--The sales
in the print cloth market this week
amounted TO about $4,000 pieces.
There is no increase in the demand
for goods in the local market. Small
sales of 2s-inch "a by 90, are said to
have been made outside this city at 81,
which is an eight under the quotation
here. Bids have been made for wide
goods at a trile below the market

to accept them. 1t is estimated that
the supply OF cotton here, II divided
equally among the mills at full time,
would last until the first of June, but

SOUR STOMACH?
Blood Wine Cures Ii
Instantly.

"Blood Wine" will sweeten a soui
stomach the moment If touches it. 1t
will stop the rising of gases, froth, sour
or greasy juices, will overcome a feeling
of nausea or emptiness, or as if a rock
were lodged in the stomach. 1t will
tone up the stomach and digestive
organs and arouse the liver anu bowels
TO healthy action. l have seen a man
who suffered with dyspepsia for years,
who couldn't eat anything without pain,
sit down to a meal of baked beans and
pork after he had taken two bottles Of
s'Blood Wine" eat heartily and get up
from the table without the slightest
suggestion of any discomfort. In his
case the two bottles had entirely cured
him. Tens of thousands of cases of OBJ
stinate indigestion have been entirely
cured by Blood Wine in from one to six
weeks.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Month Of May Was Disappointing
Conditions Not Wholly
Satisfactory.

New York. June 4.-Bradstreet's
says: The volume of May business
both at wholesale and retail was disap-
pointing, confirmation of this being
found in decreases in bank clearings
and in railway earnings from numer-
Gus, though less costly than in recen.
preceding months, while showing in
creases on year ago. Iron and steel.
bituminous coal and cotton manufac-
turing are notably quiet for this season
of the year. There are, however,. some
signs underlying confidence in future
trade. These consist of reports Of i'm
proved inquiry for fall goods at some
western, southern and eastern points,
a rather better tone in the shoe and
leather industry at the east, active
buying at full prices of the new west
ern wool clip, and fairly satisfactory
reports from the wooden industry, nota-
bly, that part dealing with the clothing
trade. Collections partake of trade
irregularity, but are still classable as
fair. Prices of staple show a general
sagging tendency. part of which is sea-
sonal. Briefly summed up, the situa-
ton generally centers upon the proba-
BILE outturn of the growing crops, and
until this matter is settled most ,au-
thorities look for comparative quiet in
most lines. Among the industries iron
and steel and bituminous coal note
specially marked depression. sfF
