DIES OF PNEUMONIA
after OPERATION
Congressman Cushman, House
HumoTist. Passes Away.

Z New York, July Francis W.
Cushman, representative In congress
from Tacoma, Wash, is dead at
Roosevelt hospital from pneumonia
At the bedside at the time were, be-
sides the doctors and nurses, United
States Senator Samuel H. Piles of
Washington and Andrew S. Burleigh
OF this city, lifelong friend. Con-
gresham Cushman underwent an op-
Grafton a short time ago and pneu-
monia resulted.
While Representative Cushman pos
sessed unchallenged the title of "house
humorist" he was universally regard
ed as far more than that. His high
ability was recognized by Speaker
Cannon in committee assignments,
particularly a vacancy on the ways
and means committee, when a great
tariff bill was pending. A striking
thing about Representative Cushman
was that he never displayed his gift
of humor to the house for mere amuse-
ment, but always with a view of i'm.
pressing his view more forcibly upon
that body. He probably will be long
remembered by reason of the effeo.
tiveness of his humor in the debates
on the Payne tariff bill in the house.
His speech in defense of retaining the
duty on lumber secured several addi-
tional votes for the duty.
The Washington congressman held
the title of being the homeliest man
In the house and of looking more like
Lincoln than any other public man of
recent years. In summarizing his
career once he said he had been a
water boy, section hand, cowboy,
schoolteacher, lawyer and congress.
man. He was In congress for more
than ten years.

rebels, but the Median brings no con-
f1rmatlon of this intelligence.
The trouble began Sunday morning
at Barranquilla and ended in the
speedy overthrow of the governmental
authorities at that point. There was
little resistance and the rebels were
quickly successful Two hundred men
armed with rifles then marched down
to Savanilla and took that port with
out firing a shot. Only one prisoner
was taken, the captain of the port,
and he was sent back to Barranquilla
A Colombian gunboat was seen Mon
day night approaching Cartagena, but
no news Of what has occurred at that
city has reached Colon. When the
Median left the Colombian coast it
was rumored that an American war
ship was expected momentarily at one
Of the coast ports.
Persons we'll versed in Colombian
politics are of the opinion that this
movement is the beginning of fusion
of all political parties against the
Reyes government.

sUBSCR,PTI0N.-.s5.00 PER ANNul
CONSOLIDATION WAS WISE MOVE.

Under the caption Another Con-
solidation," the Red Lake Falls
Gazette recently said of the late
consolidation of the Pioneer and
the Record:
THE Bemidji Pioneer has pur-
chased the other two papers of the
town and in the future the city of
Bemidji will have just one news
paper. The fact that a city the size
of Bemidji is to have only one news
paper is evidence that the business
men of that hustling place have seen
the light.
with two or three papers in a
town the advertisers have to pay
twice for their advertising service or
get an incomplete service. They
are sometimes deceived in the belief
that they are getting a bargain
because two papers sometimes cause
a rate war, but moments thought
full reflection shows that that is a
mistaken idea.
The one paper covers the same
field that two or more might cover,
covers it better because of less risk
of financial loss in the attempt to
serve the town we'll, and even though
there is not rate war the advertiser
is dollars and service ahead. Mer-
chants all over the southern part of
the state where consultations and
better papers and better service have
become the rule, will vouch for the
truthfulness of this statement.
If the business men of Bemidj il
will spend one-half of the money
that the advertising in the other two
papers cost them with the Pioneer
that paper, always an excellent one,
can give them an improved service
and their will be money left in
their pockets. The bus inc S
men of the town as we'll as the pub
fishers of the Pioneer are to be con-
graduated"
The general sentiment of the above
article is certainly commendatory;
but the Gazette is in error in stating
that there will be but one newspaper
in Bemidji. There is another-our
most worthy contemporary, the
Sentinel. However, we believe
that two newspapers are a.plenty for
Bemidji, and this formerly much
newspapered city can we'll afford a
rest from an overdose of gray matter
in the form of two many papers,.
The Pioneer will ever be found
boosting this city and this section;
and we shall try to be fair and i'm
partial.
