Campaign For Settlers.

THE state immigration burea u
appears to be alive. It is now
sending out appeals to the state
press to rally to it's support in
it's campaign for settlers for
Minnesota. II will not appeal in
vain. The state press has always
been ready and eager to give its
services to this cause and the
immigration bureau will not find
a newspaper in the state that will
hold back if it can present a plan
for united effort in this direction.
The Pioneer has for years
made sytematic attempt to set
forth the natural advantages Of
this section of the state, and we
believe, with considerable
measure of success. An individ-
ual effort, here and there, how.
ever, cannot be expected to ac-
complish much in comparison
with what may be done by a
united effort along the certain
lines of definite plan. A news
paper campaign, participated in
by all the newspapers of the
state will advertise Minnesota S
resources far and wide and will
be most powerful help in at
tracing more settlers to the
state.

Bemidji Should Be Prompt.

IT IS REPORTED that some of
the canvassers who are solicit
ing entertainment for the guests
at the Billie Conference next
week are meeting with poor sue
cess. We are sure that no resi-.
dent of Bemidji will refuse to as
sist in entertaining the visitors
at the Conference when the mat
ter is once understood. It is
proposed that Bemidji furnish
lodging and breakfast for all
guests at the Conference, the
visitors to find their dinner and
breakfast for themselves. This
is all that is asked of Bemidi
people. All other expenses o
the conference are to be paid by
young peoples societies through
/ out northern Minnesota. Whel
the enormous I'M portance of thi!
first meeting of the Bible Con
i ference ia Ramidii is considered
it will be seen that very little in
, deed is being asked of Bemidj
The people of Bemidji Shout

ment asked for If no 81 licito

Beltrami County's Growth.

beltrani Countys Growth,
The official census figures for
census Of 1905 as given this
week by the Pioneer disclose the
fact that Beltram mi county has
made most notable increase IN
population during the past five
years. The actual increase of
population is 1000 the percent
age of increase being 1870. We
doubt if there is another county
in the state that has done so well.
This record makes the argument
that Beltrami county is no good
for agricultural purposes look
very silly. An increase of seven
thousand people in five years is a
notable increase indeed and the
same percentage of gain if main.
tanned during the next FIVE years
will give Beltrami county a popu-
lation of $1,000 in 1910.
The fact is that we are lust
beginning to appreciate that Bel
trami county has some of the
richest agricultural lands in the
state in addition to a wealth of
that adds tremendous
value to every farm and that in
the years to come will make the
farming lands of this county the
most eagerly sought after in the
state.

COIN FOUND IN GOLDFISH.

Of the young woman who found her
long lost engagement ring in a cod
fish found a parallel when Raymond
kretschmer found Chinese ccin in
. cod fish which was alive only a
few minutes before.
The coin is about half an inch in
diameter, with the usual square hole
in the center, surrounded by strange
Oriental hieroglyphics. Il is prob
ably worth only fraction of a cent
kretschmer was preparing the fish
for broiling when he discovered the
coin. His assistant thought it was
new kind Of laundry check. The fish
came from the Georges Bank and
probably swallowed the coin along
with other food that is on the bottom
of the ocean. The cod is a ground
fish, and if he is hungry devours
everything within reach.
