LARGE CLASS CONFIRMED
BY BISHOP MCCORMICK

Adults in Conformation Exercises
at Catholic Church.

a lass of 40 boys and girls
and older people as well, the
largest in the history of the local
Catholic church, was confirmed
here Tuesday afternoon by
Bishop McGorrick Of Duluth,
assisted by Rev. P. O'Meara OF
Park Rapids.
In spite Of the rainy weather,
the house was packed, and the
exercises were beautiful. The
class had been carefully trained
by Father O'Dwyer, and his
drilling showed plainly in the ex
cellent manner in which the
questions put by the bishop were
answered. Bishop McGorrick
was deeply impressed and com.
mended the class on its excellent
work.
The music by the choir, which
had been especially trained by
Mrs. T. Baudette and J. f. Boss,
was of a high order. Mrs. j. A.

MISSED BANK BURGLARS
BY ONLY FEW MINUTES
Henry Fallon Of Bemidji Passed
Akeley Bank Shortly Before
Blowing Of Safe.

s
Henry Fallon, scaler for the
Red River Lumber company,
came very close to humping into
the bank burglars who made
their getaway with $4,000 in
Akeley Wednesday morning.
He arrived in Akeley on a train
at about 1:3O a. m, and walked
up town, passing the bank build
ing at LAO or 1:45. The explosion
took place at just 1:55, so the
men must have been working in
the bank when he passed.
Neither he nor the man who was
with him heard any noise nor
suspected anything, however.
The safe door was blown clear
through a partition in the bank,
through the side of the bank
building and part way through
the wall of a building across the
alley in whic F. G. Farren was
sleeping, the man who started to
come out of the building and was
ordered back in by a man with a
revolver.
Mr.. Fallon says there did not
seem to be a great deal of excite.
ment in the town over the
burglary.

TELLS OF EXPERIENCE IN
GREAT NORTHERN WRECK
0. E. Bailey Says That Poor Track
and High Speed Are to Be
Blamed.

@. E. Bailey returned home
last night from the West, and
tells an interesting story Of the
wreck on the Great Northern in
Montana the other day, in which
he was uninjured, but consider.
ably shaken up.
Mr.. Bailey was in one of the
cars that left the track and
turned over, and the first few
minutes, until he found out that
no one was killed, were minutes
of horror. Several were injured,
but none, so far, have died from
their wounds.
The fact that the engine did
not leave the track is responsible,
probably, for the slight damage,
as it allowed the cars to run
ahead without doubling up OF
telescoping.
The train was running better
than sixty miles an hour when
the crash came, declares Mr.
Bailey. The. engine struck q
piece of soft track and the tender
left the rails, followed by all the
cars excel ting the last two.
The baggage car, the smoker,
the day coach and the tourist
car turned over and dragged
along on their sides for several
rods. The track was torn up
for two or three hundred feet.

Judge skinyik VIII Enforce Law
Against Men Hiring Out Merely
for Free Transportation.
FIRST LOB JUMPERS OF YEAR
UP IN JUSTICE COURT TODAY
One Is Sent to Jail and the Other
Is Given a Chance to
Reform.

Men who hire out to work at
certain points and jump their
jobs after getting free meals and
free transportation, will be dealt
with to the full extent Of the law
in Bemidji. The warning has
gone forth from the justices of
the peace. and all gentry of this
free and easy graft are to
beware.
The first offenders of the year
were up before Judge Skinvik
today, and one, Ward Galliger,
was given sentence of q $40 and
costs fine or ten days in Jail, and
having no money was sent to
jail; while the other, Bob Craw-
ford, was given q weeks time in
which to go to work, during
which time his case will be post
poned. His love for labor devel-
oped at an alarming rate as he
saw the county Jail and cell
looming large before him, and he
made the most ccnvincing kind
Of promises.
The practice of hiring out to
some company to work and then
jumping the job, as they say. as
soon as they reach a town, should
be suppressed, .declared Judge
Skinuik in discussing the cases.
s.The thing is becoming too
common in these parts. These
are the first cases this year, but
last fall there were any
mum Der of them, and it is getting
about the right time of the year
for them now.
It isn't that am siding with
the big companies that hire the
men, but it is wrong, morally
wrong, and it is setting = very
bad example for the young men
who are working about the
country. The men who do it are
for the most part buns and
tramps, and the younger men
who start out with . real desire
t. work, are lead astray by these
evil examples.
''There is a law making the
offence q misdemeanor, and as
far as I am concerned, and I
think Judge Pendergast feels
the same way, the practice has
! g t to stop, in this city at least" !"
A proper secrecy is the only mystery
Of able men. Mystery is the only
secrecy Of weak and cunning ones.

TO keep pace with compulsory education,
If it does not precede il. The fact is"
says our correspondent, I'VE have row in

not obey except through fear. They are
a constant hindrancc TO those who would
study, to say nothing OF their trying
each day TO see If the teachers power of
endurance is not greater than 1t was the
day before. An appeal 10 parents of such
scholars is frequently of no avail"
If our schools do not teach the Lesson
of obedience and instill the snirit of
obedience in the pupils our school sys-
TEN is a failure. no matter what it rnay
accomplish in the way of mental ins,ruc-
ton. Obedience is the foundation stone
of character of society and of govern
ment itself. j is an axiom of military
discipline that no man Is fit TO be a
commander until lie has learned to obey.
1t is the spirit of obedience that makes
| government possible, for government is

submission, no system of law can be en-
| forced
We fear that this subject is not give.

The Reform Wave.

A notable victory for clean government
was gained in Greater Pittsburg by tho
election of George W. Guthrie, Demo-
crnt. to be the first Mayor OF that nunici-
pal corporation. A Republican newspaper
printed In Philadelphia says that Mr..
Guthrie Is the embodiment of conscc1-
tio,s Independence, who acts on all occn-
slons with the courage of his conviction,
and that his appeal to the voters of Pitts
burg was directed to citizens who placed
good government above fractional and
party tags; while his opponent, Jenkin-
son, was the organization candidate, who
enlisted the support Of the ring. Jenkin-
son opened his barrel and was supported
by the corporations, but Guthrie appealed
to the people to know whether, they
wanted to sell out to the 'billlonaire
syndicate" Tho people responded to his
appeal, and protested against bossism.
We have had some startling and alarm
Ing revelations in our political affairs OF
late, but 1t is comforting, rcassuring and
to, know that the people have
aroused themselves. Wherever there has
been such revelation there has also
been a popular uprising, and in every
instance the machine has been overturned
and the cause of the people has pro-
vailed.
