Good Targets for Our Men-Of-War


The officers Of the steamship Helig
Olav Of the Scandinavian American line,
which arrived at this port on Monday
reported a dangerous wreck as being
adrift right in the pathway of the great
transatlantic liners, about fifty miles
east of the island of Nantucket. The
derelict appeared to have been three
masted vessel although she had been
dismasted and her deck was awash from
stem to stern, so that she was discerni-
BILE with difficulty.
On the same day the steamer Foxhall,
coming up the New Jersey coast, passed a
submerged wreck about eight miles east
of Barnegat This derelict showed very
little of the hull Of the vessel, and was
detected only by the presence of a spar
rising ten feet above the sea surface.
These reports came to us at the time
when the public was reading about the
sham fights in which the army and navy
were engaged in and about Chesapeake
Bay. No doubt mimic warfare furnishes
excellent discipline and drill as prepare
ton for military and naval maneuvers
in actual fighting We do not desire to
depreciate the value or importance Of
such exercises in the slightest degree
The reports concerning these derelicts,
however, suggest that when the present
maneuvers are over our war vessels
could not be put to any better Use than
the speedy destruction of these menaces
to navigation, 1t ought to be possible
for one of our cruisers to locate these
submerged wrecks without difficulty
and send them to the bottom either by

WASHINGTON June l4.-Presdent Roose-
welt to-day appointed Elan H. Neal OF Jones'
boro Ind, to be collector Of internal rev
enue for the Sixth district Of Indiana. Neal
will succeed Ambrose f. Nowlin, whose
resignation was called for by the Presiden.
last Saturday.
Meals appointment is of interest chiefly
because he was formidable candidate for
the Republican State craftsmanship in In
diana against James P. Goodrich. the
present chairman. Goodrich is Fair
banks man, first, last and all the time, and
the Hooser politicians understand that
Meals acceptance of the Federal job means
that Goodrich will have practically NJ
opposition for reelection when the Indiana
State committee is organized early next
year. This means that Vice President Fair
banks will enter the campaign for dele
gates in 1908 with IL devoted henchman at
the head Of the Indiana State, organization.
Nowlin, who has always been an ardent
Fairbanks man, was retired by agreement
of the Indiana Senator'S to give place to
Neal, who trains with the ant-Fairbanks
element At first Neal demurred. but
finally decided that 81 800 a year was too
much to throw over his shoulder. This il
the only change that will be made in i'm.
portant Federal places in Indiana, all OF
the other leading officeholders having
been designated for reappointment.

SUBSCRIPTION IS PER YEAR
Bond Election Tonight.


AT SPECIAL election called
for this evening the people Of Be-
midi are asked to authorize the
board Of education to issue bonds
for $4,000 with which to buy two
school sites. The sites named
are the Catholic church property,
including the building, and a two
acre tract in the extreme north.
western part of town.
lfthis bond issue is authorized,
it will take the place of the issue
Of $4,000 authorized by the dis
trict some four months ago. The
new plan thus provides for
abundant school room at one half
the expense contemplated here
tofore.
If the Pioneer understands
correctly the plan of the board
of education it intends, in case
the bond is ne is authorized, to
purchase both sites at once and
to Immediately remodel the
Catholic church into two school
rooms that shall be ready for the
accommodation of children at the
opening of school in Septem Der.
The site and the work of remod-
cling will cost $4,000, thus leaving
the board with $4,000 for build
ing to be erected in the north
western part of town, the cost of
the second site being but $3.50.
While the second ward school
building is not urgently needed
at once it will undoubtedly be
needed as soon as it can be com.
pleted.
This plan seems sensible, feas-
ible and economical. Sensible,
for it will ~ provide abundant
school room easily accessible to
all the children of the city; feas-
IDLE, because the additional
school room which is demanded
can be secured at once; economi.
cal, involving a total expenditure
Of but $4,000 to care for the
growth in school population for
several years to come.

The Cunning of the Rus

M, WITTE, Russia's peace
plenipotentiary, is making the
effort of his life in connection
with the peace negotiations.
Beaten on land and sea and utter
ly Inundated in war, Russia still
hopes to win by cunning diplo-
macy.
Japan has made certain de-
mands as condition of peace.
Several Of these Russia declares
impossible and not alone at Ports
mouth but through every news
paper in the United States Rus.
STA is now attempting to show
that if Japan's demands are
granted it will be an evil day for
the commerce of this country.
By appealing to the pocket books
of the American people Russia
hopes to snatch victory from the
jaws Of defeat.
Japan's demands are well
known. Is there any European
nation that would be content with
so little from an utterly beaten
foe? Would the United States
itself, after having had war
forced upon it and after having
been SO completely successful,
ask less from it's vanq uished
enemy? Japan's demands nav
be severe upon Russia but they
are moderate demands for VIC
torious nation to make.
