Volume Ill, No. I

With this issue the Pioneer
commences the third year of its
publication. Two full volumes
have now been published and
this paper is the first of the third
year.
During all the time in the past,
the Pioneer has stood for Roman
first, last and all the time. 1t
has endeavored to stand for the
reservation at the same time. 1t
has worked to advance the in
terests of those who have settled
here during that time, and per-
haps has offended some by so
doing. It was never expected at
any time that the paper would
be published two full years and
not offend somebody. That
would have been a record, had
it been true, and still it would
not have amounted to much dur
ing all that time either. 1t has
same warm friends, along with
those who are not so warm, and
that is some compensation.
There is to be no new policy
during the coming twelve months
and believing that its past policy
has been appreciated by a ma
jority of it's readers, leads the
management to think that the
same will be accepted as it is in
tended in the future.
It has been a constant endeav.
or during the past two years to
give the subscribers their
moneys worth, and we believe
they have received it many
times. The same effort will be
expended in the future. The
paper has not been forced upon
anyone, and the seven hundred
subscribers are all on the books
at their own instance. No So
letting has been done for either
subscribers or advertisers, and
were they not benefited they
would not patronize the paper
as they have. To each one we
desire to express the deepest ap-
probation for what they have
given us by way of patronage,
and if deemed worthy, a con-
tinuance of same in the future
is solicited.
The time has come when peo-
pie recognize the newspaper
business as being just as legiti-
mate as any other, and when the
business is conducted on strictly
business principles, with no
favoritism shown, they realize
and appreciate such a newspaper.
1t is the only way to secure and
retain the confidence of anybody.
This has been the aim of the Pho
neer and will continue to be,
while managed by those who now
control it's destinies.

CAR THIEVES
nerchandise Worth $l,5oO
Secreted UOder Floor Of
Vacant Factory

HANKINsON, N. D., July 6.-Mer-
chandise valued at $1,000 to $500
was found in the vacant starch fac
tory building near the 500 depot,
where It had been secreted by boxcar
thieves.
500 detectives are working on the
case and there is every likelihood that
the thieves will be run to earth.
Strong clues as to the identity of at
least one of the men have been found.
The stolen loot has been shipped to
the claim department Of the 500 road
at Minneapolis. The goods we're evi-
IDENTIFY billed to Enderlin, Minot and
Mobridge, as evidenced by enclosures
in the packages. None Of 1t was for
local parties
The plant was discovered through
the arrest OF q hobo who was seen
taking eatables from the interior of
an old threshing engine on the east
side Of town near the starch factory.
He was seen sneaking to the engine
and his actions aroused the suspicion
Of some laborers near by. They re-
ported the matter to the marshal,
who took the vag into custody. At
the time quantity Of food, such az
creckers, canned goods, sardines, ETC.,
most Of 1t in the original packages,
was found locked up and q more ex-
tended search made with the result
that q veritable robeTs' roost was
discovered under the factory floors.
Sixty casks Of whiskey, whole bolts
Of cloth, quantities Of food in cans
and boxes, flrecrackers and loot OF
almost every conceivable kind was
brought to light
An exhaustive examination of the
man In custody convinced the author
tiles that he was innocent and his
discharge followed. According to
his story he was railroad man In
hard luck and had hoboed his way
from Wisconsin to Hankinson. EARLY
last week he fell dn with q fellow
hobo and the latter produced plenty
Of grub at their hold-out east Of town.
His new found friend left, stating
that he was going to Enderlin, but
would return in q day or two. Mean
time he informed his pal that the lat
ter could find suficiency Of food in
the old engine before mentioned, and
1t was while helping himself that his
actions aroused suspicion resulting
in his arrest. His story was 10
straightforward that he was released
with the consent Of the 500 detec.
tives.
