That Is why have taken the SEEM

through a door.
Suppose you had to enter a room

feel that the opening of that door
had something to do with a dramatic

OF the plot. How differently you
would do II from the way In which
you passed through the last door

II can be done so gracefully. and
with so much unconscious ease.
First OF all. II every part OF your

His Testimony Will Interest Every
Bemidii Reader, .-~

The value of local evidence Is In
disputable. 1t Is the kind OF evidence
we accept as true because we know
we can prove 1t for ourselves. There
has been plenty OF such evidence In
the Bemidji papers lately, and this
straightforward testimony has estab-
lished a confidence in the minds of
Bemidji people that will not be easily
shaken.

High Quality of San Felice Cigars
Maintained. Now Sell at Sc

Owing TO the greatly increased cost
Of quality tobaccos, in fact every

gars,' the makers Of the San Felice
cigar. The DIESEL Wemmer Company,
have advanced the selling price to
the Jobbers and Dealers. and hence
forth this cigar will positively be
sold to the consumer at S cents
straight instead Of six for quarter
as previously.
The SAN FELICE Is national in its
SCOPE AND CHARACTER, having
justly attained this eminence through
its unexcelled excellence. TO main
tain this unequaled standard Of

ing title. the contest will be even
more interesting for tho victor will be
received as the worlds champion.
Jack Dillon has engaged In prob
ably more ring battles than any boxer
Of modern times. And besides he
has scored more knockouts than any
other two men. Gibbons, on the
other hand. has engaged In fewer
battles than his opponent OF Noyem-
Der 10. but his average is about on
a par with that OF Dillon. He has
been beaten only once and that time
was outpOinted by Jimmy Clabby
Since that bout. which was his first
before a large gathering, the st. Paul
phantom has beaten Clabby twice
and as we'll, has won decisively over
such men AS Eddie McGoorty, JEFF
Smith. Mike Donovan. Walter Cof-
fey. Young Arhearn and others too
numerous to mention.
Three years ago Jack Dillon laid
claim to the middleweight title.
About the same time the New York,
Boston and Philadelphia boxing ex-
perts accepted Mike Gibbons as the
worlds greatest lighting machine.
Since then promoters all over the
country have tried In vain to match
Gibbons and Dillon but not until last
week were the battlers brought to
an agreement and it was Harry
Sherman. president OF the Elliott &
Sherman Film Corporation and Incl
dentally president Of the Minneapolis

ceeded In bringing the warriors to
an understanding and an agreement,

HARRIS FOR JUDGE.

The Pioneer Is for Joseph E. Har-
ris for judge OF probate. We be-
lleve that he is we'll qualified for
the office and that he should be elect
ed at the general election next Tues
day.
Mr. Harris has been making a
strong campaign for the office. He
has visited practically every voter
in the county. walking from home
stead TO homestead. This new plan
OF camIj-ign has appealed to the
homeSteader who has heretofore
never seen a candidate for office.
Indications are that Mr.. Harris
will be elected by a large vote.

CHARLES WARREN FAIRBANKS

Amid the tumult OF the campaign,
il is refreshing to find man. who
although a leading figure in its ac-
tivities, preserves his eQuanimity and
his pOise While his Democratic op-
pOncnts are gyrating from point to
point. Historically commencing this
and COndemning that, Charles War
rem Fairbanks, whom the Republic
cans have selected as their candidate
for vice president. is quietly and UNI
Ostentatiously conducting his cam
paign for Mr. Hughes and for Re-
publican ascendancy.
Like his chief on the ticket. Mr..
Fairbanks does not believe in the
spectacular. He does not pose as
one who discovered the Ten Com
mandmonts or the fundamental prin-
ciples or popular government He is
just a plain American gentleman,
with an eye singled to the interests
Of his country, jealous Of her honor
committed to her service and loyal
10 her flag.
His nomination for the second
highest Office in the gift Of the peo-
pie Is a striking tribute to the char
acter Of the man: for he had once be-
fore served the people in that capacity
and had demonstrated his worth and
his integrity. AS presiding officer Of
the senate. he was recognized not
only as one whose counsel and judg-
ment were sound and calm, but as q
leader whose excellent executive
ability and prudence in times when
prudence and caution We're most
necessary. were constantly mani
festod
These are the elements which par
ticularly comment Mr.. Fairbanks to
the people in the present election.
Crises we are bound to face in the
next few years. and it Is in times like
these that the nation feels the need
of a cool head and steady hand.
When storms break in the senate of
the United States. and it Is impossible
for us to go through the next four
years without encOuntering much
dangerous water, 1t will be satisfy
ing to know that there is q trained
pilot at the helm, that the ship will
be steered away from the rocks of
impulse passion and prejudice.
There Is yet another consideration
in the election Of a vice president
which will not be overlooked by the
thoughtful voter. If the presidency,
from any unforeseen cause should be-
come vacant, it is most important
that the man who will be called upon
to fill the chair shall possess the
qualifications the high office de-
mands. In Mr.. Fairbanks the Amer.
lean people feel that they may safely
repose their trust; that the honor
and the dignity Of this great repub
lie will be secure in his hand ant
that the very qualities which 80 sin
gularly distinguish the presidential
nominee are also present in the per
son of his first lieutenant. s.r,nss..
