HOME RULE IS

LONDON, Sept 2S-After, pro-
claiming for the past few years that
the cry of Ulster will fight is mere
bluff, the liberal administration is
now taking vigorous measures to pre-
vent anything in the way of armed
resistance to the granting of home rule
for Ireland That these precautions
are a bit belated is proved by the
amount of drilling and arming that
has been going on in the northern
province of Ireland, but the Orange
leaders have come to the govern
ment's assistance by announcing that
there will be no fighting at present.
The Covenant of Ulster is to take
the place of fighting again, only for
the present-and September %, which
| is known as Ulster day, approximately
half million Orangemen will take
part in a solemn religious service and
subscribe to solemn covenant not to
recognize home rule.

| list council at Belfast September %,
are, that in the event of home rule
becoming law, Orangemen pledge
! themselves:
| j. Not to acknowledge the parlia-
ment at Dublin.
| 2. Not to obey its laws, and
3. To refuse to pay taxes to it.
1t is also understood that the Ulster
council will draw up complete
scheme for the establishment of a
provisional government, but this is
only to be adopted as last resort,
when. if it ever does, the home rule
bill becomes law.
That this is not bluff is proved by
ithe fact that the first men to sign the
covenant will be the privy council
Iors present This in itself will be a
Unreasonable act, and the signatories
will be laying themselves open to ar
rest and impeachment for nigh treas
on. A privy councillorship is consid-
cred pretty well the highest honor
that can be bestowed on Britisher,
for it admits him to the kings council,

Whether the great mass of the
0rangemen will be content with such
peaceful methods remains to be seen.
The character of these men, most of
them religious fanatics of an ultra
Puritanical type, is all against it.
They have plans of their own which
frighten the average English union
ist, who is exploiting the anti-home
rule campaign for political motives.
Whatever politicians may say about
Ulster bluff the war Office is now
fully alive to the danger of bloodshed
and for weeks past extra troops and
armed police have been drafted quiet

every part of the province.

Her recent visit to Germany with
her mother, meant for Princess Mary,
King Georges fifteen year old dangh-
ter. the commencement of the second
stage of her education as princess
the education which is to fit her for
a throne.
Fortunately for her peace of mind,
she is safe for several years Ut, be-
cause there are no eligible heirs to
thrones old enough to need wife for
some time, and third or fourth sons,
or second rate princelings will not be
allowed to make eyes at the only
daughter of the ruler of the British
empire.
A preternaturally solemn looking
child, Princess Mary has been brought
up in the strictest seclusion, and being
always tied to her mothers apron
strings has never known the ordinary
Joys of girlhood. She has never been
to school, never had any girl friends,
and has never been allowed to do
anything but learn to be a princess
and eventually a queen.
From the age of five she has had
one long round of lessons from her
mother and her German goyerness,
and in addition to speaking French
and German fuently she has good
knowledge of Italian, Greek, Latin,
Spanish and Russian.

DOMINION CAMPAIGN CLOSES.

Regina, Sask., July 1O,-The fate
of the Liberal Government, which,
under Premier Scott, has been in
power continuously since the forma-
ton of the Province of Saskatchewan
nearly seven years ago, will be deter
mined in the general election tomor-
row. The campaign closed rather
quietly today, many of the meetings
and demonstrations planned as a
wind-up of the contest having been
abandoned as result of the catas-
trophe which befell this city week
ago,
Both parties express themselves
confident Of winning the election, but
as a matter of fact the Province is Sc
large, the constituencies so new, and
the voters list so vastly changed from
the last fight that the results of the
election cannot be forecasted with
any large degree of certainty.
In his fight for renewal of power
Premier Scott cites the record of his
administration with regards to- the
elevator question, the creation of a
Provincial system of telephones, the
establishment of Provincial univer.
sity and agricultural college and the
handling of other important prob
lens. The government also relies on
the reciprocity argument to attract
the heavy American vote.
The Conservatives for the first
time are completely organized with
working candidates in every constit
uency. The party has brought in
several prominent Manitoba orators
to assist in their campaign. The
Conservatives declare that reciprocity
is absolutely dead, and that the Lib
erals have revived the issue only to
prevent discussion of their admin
istrative record.

BEST KIND OF ADVERTISING
Leedy Says That Actual Samples Do
More Good Than Money Spent
For Photographs.

Through the Commercial club, Be-
midi has been invited to prepare an
exhibit for the Great Northern rail-
way which will show the horticulture
al and agricultural products of this
region. The invitation is being ex-
tended to certain Commercial clubs
of Minnesota and one was received by
H. c. Baer from E. c. Leedy, general
immigration agent of the Great
Northern railway.
1t has long been the policy of the
Great Northern immigration depart
ment to make exhibitions throughout
the Central and Eastern states, using
parts of the exhibits from the various
clubs Now it is proposed to give each
club separate exhibit and to place
these in rotation in the windows of
the Great Northern offices throughout
the East. An exhibit will be made in
Chicago for two weeks and then NOV
ed to New York, Philadelphia, or 9TH
er eastern points.
The matter is being taken up now
in order that good selections may be
made and the exhibit be one of which
Bemidji can be proud. Mr. Baer has
a sheet showing how to select the ex,
hibits, how to prepare them, and how
to ship them. This sheet may be con-
suited by farmers at any time. All
material for exhibits will be handled
free of charge by the railroad
In selecting products for exhibition
purposes, it is pointed out that the
one fact to be kept in mind is that
the product must better than that
incentive for immigration. Products
must be of the finest and with no
flaws or blemishes.
"No language. no pictures will
equal the display of the products
themselves. If you have not the
goods to show, you have no right to
advertise" says Mr.. Leedy A bum
per crop around Bemidji this fall will
bring in more settlers than many
thousands of dollars worth of paper
