Young Dan Ryan appears to the best
advantage on the stump. He Is a natural
orator ana he has great persuasive powers.
but the heavy defectiOns from the RepubIi-
can ranks n v chilled his ardor.
His chief argument In that as the Republi-
can party stands for reform and the best pol
lcies in national Affairs the same spirit must
prevail IN local matters. He asserts that
the East will welcome his election because
ne ~ a Republican. The a~bsurdity OF
TINS lies IN the fact that Schmitz and Ruef
were both Republicans and that until his
uownta ltnef was a controlling influence
in the Republican party.
One oHthe things which will cost Mccarthy
more votes than any other is that the con-
Vict Mayor Schmitz from his cell in the
county jail is directing the Union Labor
nght. IL IL a curious fact that Schmitz.
despite the exposure OF his Wholesale graft
ing. IL still very popular among the par
tisans Of MO Labor.
Mccarthy has made many visits to the Jail
and has consulted Schmitz on all important
points IN h campaign; and II is asserted
that a large part OF the sinews Of wal is
being furnished by SChmitz. who sees in
Union Labor success at the polls a chance
TO secure another trial and a practical
vindication of his W assures
But It il among the outside adherents
OF the Union Labor party hat Schmitz's
activity IL resisted. Thousands who
voted at the last election for the Union
Labor party canno stomach Schmitz
any more. because he stands for all that
is low and mean in political graft and be-
cause he has NJ exposed as a renegade
even to his own family. His younger
brother was forced recently to confess
on the witness tan that the former Mayor.
even when he was receiving thousands
every month in graft. refused to contribute
one dollar to the suppor of his aged mother
and his invalid sister. both of whom were
unable to work.
From straw votes and from the other
though Mayor Taylor would poll a vote
large enough to insure his election. II the
Union Labor vote can be split up he will
be sure OF success. and il certainly looks
now as though many members OF the various
unions had had enough of politicians from
their ranks dragging the name OF labor
unions in the dirt.
Taylor is making a good campaign. He
ia delivering few speeches, but his friends
the foremost citizens. The women's clubs
and other organizations have also pledged
their aid, for it is apparent to every one
here who has the welfare Of the city at
heart that Taylor must be elected or the
rebuilding OF the city will be seriously
checked for two years.
The work done during the last two months
has been marvellous. and though the rainy
months will cause some delay still there is
enough work on interior finish to keep an
army OF mechanics busy. II Taylor is
elected the result will be an immediate
gain in credit at the East and the consequent
increase of rebuilding.

Mr.. McCourt is expected to ar,

DR.. BLAKESLEE MARRIED
TO MISS LAURA DODGE
Ceremony Performed in St. Paul
Thanksgiving Day, Surprised the
Doctors Bemidji Friends.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. I. Bliss request
the honour of your presence at the
marriage of their sister, Miss Laura
+. Dodge, to DR.. F. A. Blakeslee, on
the evening of Thursday, November
the twenty-eighth, one thousand nine
hundred and seven, at eight o'clock,
6S1 St. Peter Street, Saint Paul,
Minnesota"
The above announcement, which
was received by the editor of the
Pioneer, was the first intimation we
had that the genial doctor Blakeslee
intended taking unto himself life
partner, and like many others in the
city who received similar letters, the
announcement came as a genuine
surprise.
1t is impossible to get particulars
of the marriage ceremony from any
of the twin city papers; however, it
it learned that the bride is a very
estimable lady of St. Paul who has
host of friends there, and who
knew the doctor for many years.
Doctor Blakeslee is one of the
very oldest residents of this city, and
is universally liked; and his many
friends here will congratulate him
on his most recent diagnosis.

Purchased Bacon Saloon.

E. ]. Gearlds has purchased the
saloon, which has been conducted
by c. M. Bacon for several years
past, and will hereafter have per
sonal charge of the business of that
establishment.
The Bacon place has, for some
time, been one of the most popular
refreshment parlors in the city, and
Mr.. Bacon has always enjoyed a
very liberal patronage.
Mr.. Gearlds, the new proprietor
of the place, has, had charge of the
bar for Mr.. Bacon for several years
and the success of the saloon has
been, in large measure, due to the
efficiency and personal popularity of
Gearlds.
Mr.. Gearlds will retain J. E.
Flatley to assist in supplying the
wants of the patrons of the place,
and he and Mr.. Gearlds will make a
strong team.
Eds. many friends in this city

N. & |. THROUGH SERVICE
ESTABLISHED THIS EVE.
Passenger Service Inaugurated from
Brainerd to international
Falls.

Through passenger service from
the twin cities to the international
boundry at international Falls, by
an almost direct airline, is now an
assured fact, through the medium of
the N. P. railway and the Minnesota
& international railway, in conjunc-
ton with the Littlefork extension of
the Big Falls international Falls
railway.
The Inauguration of the new
Brainerd-Big Falls schedule on the
M. & I. railway, will be this
evening, when the first passenger
train will 20 through from Brainerd
to international Falls. The time of
the arrival and departure of the
north-bound passenger train on the
new schedule has not been changed
from the time which has been in
vogue during the past year. The
train will arrive in Bemidji at 6p.m.,
remain here for half an hour for
supper and depart northward at
$50, arriving at International Falls
at LOS p. m. Returning, the train
will leave international Falls at
3:45 a. m. A half-houF's stop will
be made here for breakfast, and the
train will leave for the south at
8:45, instead of $40, as heretofore.
Through connections to St. Paul
will be made at Brainerd, where
there will be stop for dinner, which
gives The International Falls-Twin
city service which will be greatly
appreciated by the wholesalers in
the twin cities and the business
men north to the boundary.
The train crews which have been
running on the regular passenger
train will run through to Interna-
tional Falls on the same schedule as
heretofore.
The new schedule officially goes
into effect tomorrow, and the north
extension has been turned over to
the M. & I.sfor operation.
H. Mccormick, formerly station
agent at Blackjack, has been as
signed to International Falls, and
]. A. Colpitts has been appointed
agent at Littlefork. For the pre-
sent there will be no stations

The good work of the department
prevented the fire spreading across
the alley on which the building
stood, or across Third street, al
though for a time it looked as
though the fire would certainly
spread and the city be confronted
with a very disastrous confagra-
ton.
A large part of the furniture in
the hotel was saved, but practically
nothing was removed from the Miles
theater. The loss is roughly esti-
mated at $150,000. The fire when
discovered, had gained great head
way. Alarms were sounded through
the hotel and the department was
notified. Some of the guests were

dressed, and sought refuge in some
nearby buildings. The hotel EN-.
ployes, marshalIed by the manager,
turned their attention to carrying
out the furniture, and many pieces
were saved, thereby cutting down
the total loss materially.

volumes of water upon the burning
building with little appreciate re-
suit, turned their attention to pre-.
venting nearby buildings from tax.
ling fire. Klessman's confectionery
store, just across the alley, was
saved, although it was badly scorched
and for time appeared to be
doomed. A small frame building
behind the hotel, between the burn.
ing building and the baseball park,
caught and burned. The heat from
the fire was intense and the plate
glass windows in stores across Third
street were broken.
So far as known there was only
one person injured. Falling glass
cut man on the street, but his
name is not known at the time this
message is filed.
AS the heart of the city was one
time threatened request was made
for aid in Duluth, and fire app3ra ratus
was to start from that city by special
train, but the fire was under control
before it left and the order was
countermanded. Three hours after
the fire was discovered the building
was IN ruins and the possibility of
other buildings catching averted.
The ruins smoldered for several
hours.
On all sides words of praise were
heard for the Hibbing department.
The force never displayed itself to
better advantage, and the result is
we'll shown in saving adjoining
property.
While it is yet early to speculate
on the future, it is expected that
Miles & Markham will rebuild the
property, starting work as soon as
possible.

Hibbing, Mimi, Nov. 3O.-The
Hotel Miles, the most modern and
expensive hotel on the Mesaba
range, was completely destroyed by
fire yesterday forenoon. The fire
broke out at about eight o'clock.
It started in the basement of the
building, from the heating plant.
By the time the fire was noticed and
an alarm was turned in the smoke
was so dense in the basement, that
it was impossible for the fremen to
enter.
There was about thirty tons of
soft coal in the boiler room, and after
this caught fire the flames soon
spread to floor ground and from there
throughout the entire building. At
