MINNEAPOLIS AUTO SHOW
To Be Held in Armory for Eight
Days, Feb. 1925.

Plans for the fourth annual auto
mobile show which is to be held in
the national guard armory, Mime
apolis, commencing Feb. IS and last
ing until Feb. rs, are nearing COM
pletion, and judging from the wide
spread interest which is being mani
tested on all sides, this annual dis
play of the motor makers efforts will
go down in history as the best and
most elaborate to be seen anywhere
in the country, excepting of course
the two national motor shows in
New York and Chicago.
Former Minneapolis shows have
turned out to be strong business
stimulants and this year, with many
new models, new makes and interest
ing improvements, it is thought the
motor loving public will show it's
appreciation in a way never before
experienced. All conditions point to
a marvellous attendance during the
eight days of the show, agents from
as far away as Montana having writ
ten in for rooms at many of the
Minneapolis hotels. Plans are being
made already by the hotels to care
for thousands of visitors. Entertain
ment features costing hundreds of
dollars will be enjoyed during the
week and the show will undoubtedly
be splendid example of the mixing
of pleasure and business in the prop
er proportions
An idea of the extent of the COM
ing show can be had when it is
shown that there are twice as many
exhibitors as at the recent Detroit
winter show which heretofore has
been conceded first honors among
the shows of the country outside of
the national exhibits.

ATTACKED BY INDIANS
The Brown Family Have Thilling
Escape From the Sioux.

''The Early Settlers mammoth
western production will be shown at
the Majestic theatre tonight and to-
morrow night.
This picture is full of thrills and
escapes from the Indians in the pio-
neer days of Minnesota. Everybody
will want to see this picture on ac-
count of the trouble the early set
tier had in this country when the
Indians were thicker than bees.
Sunshine Sue," a Biograph pro-
duction, tells the story of love and
deception, it is a very interesting
story because it appeals to the heart
and could happen in every day life.

Fast Basketball Contest Saturday

VISITORS EXPECTED TO WIN
Victory Again Places High School
Boys in Line for Northern Min
nesota Championship.

Another step toward the basket
ball championship of northern Min
nesota, was taken by the Bemidii
high school boys Saturday evening
when they defeated the Fosston
aggregation of basket tossers by a
score Of 20 to Is.
AS Bemidji had been defeated
once this season by the Fosston quint
on the Fosston floor, they arrived
in Bemidji Saturday fully expecting
to win.
The contest Saturday evening was
fast at all times and until the last
few minutes of play the score was
about even.
The playing of Captain Larson,
the big Bemidji centre, was again the
feature of the contest; he being in
the game and after the ball from the
first whistle to the last. Every Be-
midi player is deserving of credit.
Fosston has one of the fastest
basket ball teams in this part of the
state, and in winning from them Sat-
urday night the Bemidji boys dem
onstrated that they have a basket
ball team, and one that can play
basket ball.
The lineup was as follows: Iii

E
Announcement was made this
morning by Agent Comstock of the
500 Line that in the future the morn
ing east bound passenger train would

that passengers of the 500 will ar
rive in Duluth about five O'Clock,
an hour before the stores close, and
also because the change allows the

and Minneapolis, arriving in St. Paul

Bemidji at 1888 will arrive at 10: SO

Northern Automobile Company Has
Placed Large Order for Machines
Purchased By Bemidji Men.
GARAGE sP1END1DLY EQUIPPED
Vacuum Cleaner to Be Installed So
As to Keep Cars In Best Pos
sible Condition.

Recently the Northern Automobile
company of Bemidji, placed an order
for one car load of automobiles,
which have been sold to customers
of theirs, all citizens of Bemidji.
From the interest shown in the
automobile business at present, Be-
midi bids fair to rank among the
leading cities for it's size, in number
of automobiles. 81 % ~ q. >z.. ~ .-
Mr.. Jewett Of the Northern Auto
mobile company took the writer
through their garage today and that
this city will have one of the most
up-to-date garages in this part of the
country, can be judged from the ap-'
pliances and the arrangement of
the garage.
The motive power is electric pow
er, repair shop is equipped with
lathes, drills, emery wheels and all
necessary tools for that class of
work.
There has recently been Installed
an air compressor and air tank.
This air is piped to a convenient
part of the garage, where there is a
pressure gauge arranged, making it
apossible for the customers to initiate
their tires to the proper pressure.
The compressed air Will also be
used for cleaning purposes around
the machines
A Vacuum Suction Cleaner will be
installed and this will be used for
gathering up dust about the cushions
and upholstery of the machines.
The front doors are so arranged,
that they can be automatically open
ed from within or outside of the ga
rage. There are numerous other
little improvements, whicr all add to
this up-to-date institution.
Mr.. Jewett, who is a mechanical
and electrical engineer has had
very broad experience, the first four
years of which he was in the employ
of Sooysmith of New York, the larg-
est contractors in their line of work
at that time. Later he was located
for two years in Chicago, from there
to Minneapolis from where his bust
ness took him to Seattle, Wash.
Mr.. Jewett came to this part of
the country several years ago and has
been identified in mechanical lines
Six years ago, he became connected
with the Pence Automobile Co. of
Minneapolis and has given the auto
mobile business careful and
thorough study. The Northern
Auto company is handling the pop
ular lines of autos, known as the
Studebaker and Buick lines.
In tomorrow's issue of the Pioneer

ment of their line of machines.

c. M. King Will Push For A Few
Good Bills At State
Capitol.
FAVORS ROAD AND BRIDGE TAX
Is Doing All He Can Among Legis.
lators to Help Northern Mime
sofa Settlers.

County Commissioner c. M. King
returned last Saturday from St. Paul
where for ten days he had been look
ing after matters of interest to the
people of Northern Minnesota. To-
morrow he leaves again for the CAPT
tol to work for the enactment of GER
tain bills beneficial to this part of the
state. Mr.. King is doing this at his
own expense.
Mr.. King says he is anxious to get
pay due to settlers for fighting forest
fires, and to get appropriations to aid
settlers who lost property by the fires
last summer. He has also drafted
bill which is now before the road and
bridge committee which provides for
the levying of road and bridge tax
on the property of unorginized Sec
tions of the counties, the money col
lected from such source to be expend-
ed only in the same territory from
which it is collected. If this measure
passes it will greatly aid settlers in
such territory all through the north
central and northeastern part of the
state. No tax of this kind is now
collected, and there is subsequent
neglect of these less settled sections.
Mr.. King is sanguine of final sue
cess in his efforts in behalf of the,
settlers also, who having flied on
lands thrown open for settlement,
have gone on and in good faith i'm
proved these homesteads; but in the
contest between the state and the
United States, as to ownership, these
holders are kept in a constant state
of suspense, and a constant drain is
made upon them by their attorneys,
who are trying to secure for them the
lands which the government invited
them to take. Mr.. King will meet
the attorney general next Tuesday in
a consultation over the proposed mea-
sure, under which, if it becomes a
law, the holder of lands involved in
the controversy between the state
and government shall have the pre-
ference right" to purchase them at a
fixed price of $500 per acre, to be
paid in the same manner as is now
provided for lands sold by the state.
1T will end litigation, add thous-
ands of dollars to the state treasury,
and at best, it will do something
less than exact justice toward the
citizens who are trying to make a
home on the frontier" says Mr.. King,
and he is unquestionably right.
We believe this measure should
have the energetic support of the
whole northern part of the state. and
that those personally interested
should interest their legislators in
pushing the matter. Delegations
from commercial clubs, and advoca-
ton by the press Immediately would
help considerably. but at least the
representatives of every northern
district should be flooded with let
tiers asking support of the bills
