The First AutonnohiIist.

Nicholas Joseph Cugnot was the first automobilist. Many years before Ste phenson had introduced his railway locomotive Cugnot. who was a mil- tary engineer, had made locomotive for roads. His locomotive has been piously preseryede.a the Conservatoire des Arts ct Metiers. Cugnet died in 1894. His lot was not that of many geniuses. He did not die in want. Ma poleon had secured him a pension of 1000 francs-passing rich on $200 a year. In this respect the premier con- sul showed more enlightenment than he did in regard to Fulton of steamboat fame. whom he copsidered-it is dis ressing to write-an adventurer. Cug- not's carriage was built to transport arms and he had designed service gun. These achievements alone would be passport to Napoleon's favor.- London Globe.

erd shops, and with their families,
would mean that cars would have to
lie provided for over 1000 people.
This would take twenty or thirty
cars and would make several train
loads. The company says that it
cannot spare so many cars at this
time of year.
The union men selected Bemidii
some time ago but at once had to
face the question of transportation.
When it was heard that there was
a possibility of the picnic going
elsewhere, man was sent to
Brainerd by the Commercial club to
see that the union came here. He
found that the union could come
if it could get transportation.

BAND CONCERT At 8 P. N.
All New Pieces-Men Do Not Expect
That 1t Will Rain.

Men were at work all day yester-
day repairing the dock and band
stand so that everything is in good
shape for the first outdoor band con-
cert of the summer tonight. The
band practiced long and late last
night and is ready to give the peo-
pie of Bemidji the best that can be
had. The pieces are all new and
have not been played here before.
The concert will begin at 8 p. m.
sharp. 1t has been the custom of
the weather bureau to turn loose a
rain storm every time the band
played outdoors on Friday night.
The opening concert has therefore
been put on Friday because rain is
needed so much here. The St. Paul
grocers usually bring rain on their
picnic, but failed this year, so the
band boys are not over confident of
turning the trick.

Al JESTER NO LONGER
IN RACE FOR SENATOR
Has Announced Withdrawal and Left
the Field-Action Taken as Result
of Convention.

AL Jester has announced his with
drawal from the race for the Republi-
can nomination to the state Senate
at the primaries to be held Septem-
Der 20. This announcement will
come as a surprise to many of his
friends, for it was generally conced-
ed that he had an excellent chance
of winning the nomination. AS the
district is normally Republican, nom-
nation usually means election.
Its seem that Mr.. TESTERS action
is a direct outcome Of the county
convention held in this city last
Friday.
The fact that the delegates to the
state convention were instructed for
A. Kaiser seems to have been his
chief objection and the cause for his
withdrawal.
Friends of Mr.. Jester feel that he
has acted too hastily and hope for
his return in the field to fight for
the senatorship.
Some believe thar there were other
reasons for his withdrawal, as the
convention results should in no way
have effected his chances in the SEN
atorial campaign. There was hardly
a man in the county convention that,
by his actions as delegate, thought
for one moment that he was ham.
pering Mr.. TESTERS chances in the
primaries this coming fall.
What did he want US to do, or
what didn't he want US to do? This
question has been debated pro and
con by his friends and they seem at
a loss to know what to think of his
| actions.
Many of his friends have ap-
preached him on the question and
have urged him to reconsider and
enter the race he so earnestly began.
Mr.. Jester seems however deter
mined to drop politics and 20 back

Just at the time when every one
is talking about Roosevelt and his
trip to Africa everyone is naturally
interested in the famous hunters
experience.
Knowing this to be the case

ARE NOW OIL BURNERS
Motive Power Changed to Prevent
Forest Fire in Wooded Sections
Oil in From California.

Tacoma, WASH, June 24.-The
Northern Prolific Shops at South
Tacoma have turned outa score
of engines which have been con-
verted from coal to oil burners.
All of the locomotives operated by
the Northern Pacific between Pu-
get Sound and Portland will burn
oil to obviate the possibility of for
est fires. In that territory Northern
Pacific tracks extend through heavi-
ly wooded sections, and the elimi-
nation of the danger of starting for
est fires therefore is a matter of
great Importance to the railroad
company, the property owner and
to the State.
The oil is received by a steamer
from the California oil fields and
storage tanks have been built be.
tween the docks and the tracks at
Tacoma. The tenders of passen-
ger engines are built to carry 5000
gallons of oil, sufficient for round

nearly SO members. The club is
headed by William Morris, a man who
is we'll liked and we'll nown in that
community. He is a natural leader
of men. The club is organized for
the purpose of securing a market for
their products. Mr.. Morris says
we farmers meet once a month and
we do business" 1t is the clubs
intention to be fair with Bemidji
merchants and they prefer to deal
with Bemidji but they ask that the
!, merchants be fair to them. 1t seems
very probable that this move on the
part of these farmers will result in
the establishing of wholesale ware
house or market place where farmers
can bring their products and get the
cash for them. Park Rapids has
such a warehouse and makes a bid
for the business in this community.
Of course the large cities like
Duluth, St. Paul and Minneapolis
send men out to buy in car load
lots from groups of farmers.
From the conversation with Mr..
Morris it developed that the idea
among Bemidji business men in years
past has been that our farmers
have not come to stay. This idea
is thing of the past and condi-
tons at the present day clearing
show that wehave good live, thorough
and energetic farmers, men who
will cultivate their lands, and these
men must have a market place. Be-
midi is the natural center for the
farmers and they believe Bemidji
should prepare for them suitable
market for the disposal of their pro-
ducts. =.
The Barker party report a most
en- 'yable trip and say that recent
rains have done wonders for the
crops.
Mr.. LaFavar says, Talk about
raising fine sugar beets, why they
are the best I have seen anywhere,
even in Southern Wisconsin the crop
is no BETTER" 1t goes to shows
that we have the farmers here and
we have the soil in which to raise
beets.
The Barker party will continue to
make regular trips throughout this
northern country until every nook
and corner has been covered.

Cunningham Returns from Grand
Rapids Meet after Securing
Merry go-round.
SAYS CASS LAKE MAY ENTER
TEAM In THE FREE-FOR-ALL
Special Horse Races Scheduled Sun
day Afternoon May Bring
Teams Early.

M. F. Cunningham has returned
from Grand Rapids where be
attended the opening races for the
sixteenth annual tournament of the
fremen of that association. While
there, Mr.. Cunningham secured a
merry-go.round for the Bemidji
tournament.
It is probable that Cass Lake will
send its team over to complete in the
open events on the program to be
pulled off here. Cass Lake once
belonged to this association, but in
the split went with the eastern
teams. The Cass Lake team will
not be allowed to enter any of the
banner races, for if it won, it would
take the banner out of the associa-
ton.
Runners from the other associa.
ton are also expected to come over
and enter the free-for-all foot race
on Monday afternoon. This event
is 100 yard dash and is open to all
corners. The prizes, twenty, ten
and FIVE dollars, make it worth while
to enter the race. Three men
who can make the distance in close
to ten seconds have said that
they will be here.
s a big horse race has been SEIZED
uled by the Bemidji Driving club
for Sunday afternoon, July 3. The

They Can Get Cash For

the new method of advertising the

The plan is entirely original with
this popular store and much credit
is due them for having so well
thought out this method of reaching
the farmers.
Another trip was made to the
country Thursday and was even more
successful than the previous trip.
The city of Bemidji is receiving
equally the advertising done by this
company. The trip yesterday was
made in the same direction covering
the villages of Maltby and Becida and

kind are long remembered. In the

them. In this way the store learns

FOREIGN CHEAP LABOR.

Protection Uses It to Supplant Ameri-
can Higher Priced Labor.
The cry of protect the American
workman against the foreignerr' has
helped the protectionist party to get
many votes.
A more deceitful or absurd party
cry was never invented.
Our protected industries employ
mostly foreigners-right from the ship
In many cases-so that it is the for
eigner who gets the protection such
as it u.s.
The workmen who have replaced the
organized labor which was driven
from the Carnegie mills at the time of
the Homestead riots many years ago
are not Americans. but Poles. Slovaks,
Lithuanians. Roumanians. Croatians,
Bohemians and other European races,
who are content with inferior wages
and an inferior standard of comfort
The workpeople who fill the factories
| of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New
Jersey. New York and Pennsylvania
are largely foreign born. and they are
there because they undersell Ameri-
can labor.
According to the census Of 1900, Mas
sachusetts had $4,000 foreign born
people. Rhode Island $4,000. New Jer-
sey $1,000. New York 100000 and
Pennsylvania 985.OO0 The foreign
born population of these states and
their children comprise majority Of
the whole population. except in the
case of Pennsylvania. These foreign
ers work for a dollar day in the
mills and factories. and the native
American element seeks more lucrative
| employment

He comes with protection.
