The papers are talking about the
''Chicago crime wave. !" We suppose
that this means that general order
will soon be issued by the heads of the
police department Of the city to the po-
lice to chase every known criminal out
of that city into the surrounding towns.
This method of giving Chicago q much
needed respite has been tried before
with considerable success SO far as
Chicago is concerned but it is not pop
ular with nearby cities which have to
shelter the crooks.

HAS FILED HIS BOND
DistrictAttorney-Elec Hast
ings Takes First Action
to Qualify for Office
BAKER IS PLANNING A CONTEST

Henry J. Hastings, elected District
Attorney at the recent election by
plurality of -four votes is evidently
planning to qualify for the Office and
his intention was shown on Monday
afternoon when he filed with the coun-
ty board his bond. Up to this time
Mr.. Hastings had taken no action to
show his intent in the matter more
than the statement that he made to
District Attorney Baker in which he
declared that he did not want the of
fee and suggested that Baker should
not ipaugurate contest for the place.
With the fling of the bond it is be-
lived that Mr.. Hastings is planning to
qualify and it is very probable that the
election will be contested by District
Attorney Baker. In the past two
weeks the District Attorney has not
been idle and he has been collecting
evidence in regard to the conduct Of
the election and declares that when
the contest is started in court he will
be able to show a lot of facts which
will prove that Mr.. Hastings was elect
ed by defective votes. No formal action
has been started to contest the election
in court and it is not probable that
the contest will be started until Mr..
Hastings formally qualities for the of
fee. He has until the second of De-
cember to qualify. District Attorney
Baker has declined to give out the SUBJ
stance of the facts that he has gath
cred in regard to the election.
It is possible that between now
and the first of January District At
torney Baker will ask the Judge of the
circuit court to call grand jury for
an investigation of the election.
It is claimed that in some of the
wards enough illegal votes have been
found to make it possible to throw out
the entire vote of the ward and if this
is done it might be possible for some
of the other republican candidates to
be counted into Office. None of the
other defeated candidates have signi-
fed their desire to join in contest
against the result as shown by the
face of the returns. It is expected that
there will be interesting developments
in the matter during the next few days.

Kenosha will have to Ego some" if
the city is to hold the position it won
last year in the competition on the
sale Of Red Cross seals for the benefit
of the Anti tuberculosis society. From
all over the state, reports are coming
in of special efforts being made in al
most every city to push the sales Of the
seals and Kenosha must do even better
than last year to hold it's place.

SUNDAY AT TIE RHODE.

The attraction at the Rhode opera
house next Sunday, matinee and night,
will be Joseph M. Weber s production
of The Climax" which pleased a most
cultured audience when seen here last
season.
In "The Climax Joseph M. Weber
has surpassed all other productions in
regard to faithfulness of detail in
stage setting and true portraiture of
character. Those who saw this soul
stirring play with it's tense dramatic
moments and exquisite music wonder
at the remarkable picture of simple
life presented. "The Climaxo achieves
the effect of lifting its audiences over
the footlights where they become part
of the joys and sorrows of the kind
Uncle Luigi, the ambitious Adelina,
around whose beautiful voice the play
centers, and the doctor and Pietro each
of whom adores Adelina.
There is a psychological moment in
"The Cllmax0 which arrives after

come a prima donna, has lost her voice
Two young men are suitors for Adel-
ina s heart and hand. She is so alb
sorbed in her music that she never
bothered about marriage. With her
voice gone, however, Adelina is called
upon to choose one or the other. She
decides upon one, than twist in the
events causes her to change her opinA
ion. Which will she choose in the
end9 That is the great question.
Even when the curtain falls the aud
fence wants to settle the matter for
Adelina, for never was a girl so in
fuenced by arguments on both sides.

Kenosha was at the foot Of the list
in the report of the government Off
Gals on the arrivals and departures of
vessels at the ports in this district for
the first nine months of the year,
which is a poor showing for a port
which once had as much lake commerce
as any city Of its size on the lakes.
The report is encouraging in that it
shows that business in the Kenosha
harbor is increasing somewhat, in spite
of all handicaps and when the plans
made for this harbor by the govern
ment engineers years ago are carried
out, if they ever are, this city may hope
for better position in the report

morning asking them to make an effort
to secure the arrest of Henry H. Hill
the sixteen year-old son of Fred Hill,
one of the best known residents of
Zion City who RAJ away from his home
this morning. Young Hill is alleged to

watched the steady growth and
continued prosperity of your fair
city with the greatest interest. Your
court house, your hospital, your
public schools, your churches, bust

your concrete sidewalks and paved

and signify on the part of the
citizens of Bemidji an inclination to

In closing Mr.. Gemmell said:
I'VE have felt that in building our
railroad to the north as we have
done, and in developing a hitherto
unpopulated stretch of territory, we
have aided very materially to your
growth and it is certain that Bemidji
will always depend largely on the
M. & l., as will the M. & I. depend
on it, our Banner Station, for mutual
assistance and encouragement.
Therefore, though it may soon be
said with perfect adherence to the
truth that
There is a fine railroad, the 500,
Which our town of Bemidj il runs
through,
With its service sublime,
And its trains all on time,
What will its competitors do?
II can only dare venture to ex.

on the coming of the 500 for it

St. Paul, MIMI. Nov. 12.-(Daily
Pioneer Special Wire Service. -
Every saloon in the Indian district
of Minnesota is to be forced out of
existence by the United States
government.
This became known officially to-
day when Commissioner Valentine
in Washington announced that the
plan of his agents to stop the
sale of liquor had his sanction and
when it was further stated as COM
ing direct from the office of Secre-
tary of the Interior Ballinger that
that official would not interfere with
the execution of the plans, which
are simply TO stop the transportation
Of liquor by express, freight or
wagon.
This is taken here to mean that
every saloon from the affected parts
of St. Paul and Minneapolis to the
farthermost part of the Indian
district" must close. p
Railroad and express companies
have been notified and the roads,
after conference of legal counsel.
today announced that no shipments
of liquor either by freig ht or express
would be accepted.
Commissioner Valentine issued the
warning that further violations
would be prosecuted with the in-
tention of sending violators to pris--
on if possible.
Ballinger's recent move at Cass
Lake, by which the saloons of that
village were permitted to continue,
is taken as political move for elect
ion purposes only and from WASH
ington comes the positive word that
he is back of the present sweeping
movement.
Agents Brents, who has charge of
the sub agency at Bemidji, is today
in Fergus Falls. He has had charge
of the movement against the express
companies. Over the long distance
telephone, Mr.. Brents says:
1.-THE full significance of the
governments action, which now
becomes known to the public, will
be realized when the affected
saloons exhaust their present
supply. warn them now that it
cannot and shall not be replen-
ished."
"You indicate that even the
breweries will be forced out of
business. Do you mean that?''
Mr.. Brents was asked.
81 certainly do mean just that.
There is going to be no more
liquor sold in the Indian district"
The affected territory includes
Bemidji and if the government
succeeds in its move of today, the
80 saloons of the city are seeing
their last days.

GOOD ROADS" THE KEY NOTE

Great a. the Digging Of the

Al meeting which convened In
Bemidji at 10 O'Clock this morning
in the ACKNOWLEDGMENT attended by
State Auditor Iverson and several of
the most prominent men of northern
Minnesota plans are being dizussed
for the drawing up of a bill having
for its purpose the protection of hu-
man life and property from forest
fires. :
Among those attending the
meeting are State Auditor Iverson,
Prof. A. ]. MCGUIRE of Grand

Bemidji.
The bill to be drafted at this meet.
ing is to be presented at the Brainerd
convention for its sanction and from
there it will 60 to the State Legisla-
ture.
The consensus of opinion of those
present at today's meeting is that
good roads is the solution of the
problem and that by their construct
ion, together with proper drainage
bitches, that the state will be made
fire proof.
Editor Hughes made one of the
most important addresses of the
day and he declared the problem
facing northern Minnesota is as
great as the construction of the
Panama canal. He said in part:
We have got to cooperate to re.
main mass of small independent
farmers. Just as sure as we are here
that is the problem, whether we
shall 90 into corporate influence or
co. operative lines"
Mr.. Mcclure said:
cit seems to me the thing for
the state to do is to settle centers
where there will be enough people
to work together and make it pos.
sible for them to make a living
and to make it possible for the
poor man to make living. That
would be our greatest protection
and without roads and market it
is impossible.
! Prof. Cooper advocated concen.
trated settlements and Mr.. Dunton
said the problem was not a local one
and that good roads was but one
feature to be considered.

Best Efforts for City-Gathering

One of the most notable banquets
ever held here, marking an i'm.

was given in the Markham hotel last
night in honor of the completion of
the 500 Line through Bemidii. 1t

promised him that next spring the

The only disappointment of the
evening came with the announce
ment that President Pennington of
the 500 Line had found 1t impossible
to attend. He sent a letter which
was read by Toastmaster Wedge and
it read as follows:
Il regret very much that it will be
impossible for me to be with you on
