SUBSCRIPTION IS PER YEAR


SUBSCRIPTION IS PER YEAR
TODAY'S issue of the Pioneer
marks the beginng Of a new
management.
The purchase of the Pioneer
has been made by the present
owner purely for business rea
sons. Having an abiding faith
in the future of Bemidji and this
part of the state, and realizing
that the Pioneer has been and is
the leading paper in northern
Minnesota, the purchase of the
paper has been made in the be-
lief that it is a sound business
investm ent. 1tata1 2ja5.1 - a1l2 5H5
The new management has no
one to punish, no cliques to serve
no1opolicies to advocate except
such as shall appear to be those
best for the whole people. So
far as it lies, in the power of the
management the Pioneer will
henceforth take no sides in mat
ter which. are purely factional
differences. A newspaper has a
broad mission 1t should serve
the people and their interests as
a whole, and to do this it cannot
be continually helping this and
that petty faction in some petty
q uarrel. The Pioneer will stand
clearly and unequivocally for such
general questions of public inter
est as it believes to be right. but
it will do it's utmost to discour-
age and stamp out cliques and
factions in city, county and state.
: Under the able management of
R. w. Hitchcock the Pioneer has
been a power in the upbuilding
and the advancement Of Bemidji
and Beltrami county. It has Sc
cured and it has deserved the
liberal patronage of the business
men of Bemidji, of the people of
this section of the state and of
foreign advertisers. Every ef-
fort will be made to merit a con-
tinuance and an increase Of THAT
patronage.
The news service Of the Pho
neer has been maintained at
high standard and in this re-
spect it is the determination Of
the new management that the
paper shall suffer no set back.
A newspaper man of broad ex-
perience will be placed in charge
of the paper at an early date and
every possible effort will be made
and no expense will be spared to
make the Pioneer the best coun-
try daily and weekly newspaper
in Minnesota.

HELP SWELL THE PARK FUND
Mayor Believes $1,000 Will Be Forth
coming for Improvement.

There were several thousand people
at Longview park last evening to en-
joy the regular Open-air public concert
by BleueT's band. The sum of $40 was
taken in during the evening. and today
Mayor George w. McCaskrin said that
the encouragement given the efforts
to raise the 81 200 for the park fund
has made him confident that the sum
will be forthcoming. He expects to
have a committee appointed to make a
canvass for popular subscriptions, and
it is hoped that there will be a hearty
response on the part of the citizens
While the plan of providing seats last
evening was not as successful as was
expected. Mayor McCaskrin SAYS the
people have demonstrated that they
are ready to assist in raising the fund
In addition to the $40 collected last
evening, large number of other sub
scriptiOns were received, which have
not been collected yet.

Department CALL
TO THE STATION
Alarm Sent In From Rock Island De-
pot Last Night-Smoke in
Basement.

While the porter at the Rock Island
depot last evening was burning the
waste paper from the depot offices a
piece of paper fell from the furnace
and ignited some loose paper lying OIL
the floor. The porter had left the room
for a moment, and when the basement
was entered at 1910 O'Clock by one
of the railway employees, it was filled
with a dense smoke. Thinking that
there was a bad fire. an alarm was
given and the department called. By
the time the department wagons had
arrived it had been found that there
was only a very small quantity of damp
waste paper afire, and this was speed
lily taken care of by the employees.
The Central companies made one of
the prettiest runs ever seen, and this
was particularly true of the hose cart
from the Central station. The run was
straight up Fifth avenue, and as there
was very little traffic along the street,
the driver let the team out at their
best The hose cart gained several
blocks on the ladder truck team, as
the latter had the heavier pull.

pied the hose line at Eighteenth street.
The mistake was quickly discovered,
and the wagons hurried to Twentieth

ices of the department were not need
