into ashes and he could not make sure
as to what is was composed of
In explanation DR.. Hopkins admitted
his responsibility for the fire and said
that the heads and feet of the animals
had been consumed therein and that
such action was taken for sanitary rea-
sons as he thought it best not to have
the bones scattered around the ranch
or carried about by the dogs AS an
offset to this evidence the prosecution
proved that nearby lay the bones of
a dead horse and it had not been
thought necessary to cremate these for
sanitary or other reasons.
/ On the witness stand DR.. Hopkins
told a straightforward story, claiming
that the animals killed were his own.
He admitted telling the officers he had
shipped the hides, but said he felt
that they were NEEDING in his affairs
and said that, when he got mad he
sometimes lied, and this was one Of
those times He SAID that he himself
had killed the beeves, but his story as
to the manner of the killing did not
gibe very well with the evidence along
that line of his brothers, John and
Scott Hopkins.
During the progress of the trial con-
siderable Importance was placed on the
age of the hides or the length of time
that had elapsed since they had been
removed from the carcasses. Judge
Smith of the county court, William
Cross and Joe Hurtgen of this city ex-
amined the hides and testified for the
defendants while Sheriff Jessup, AL
fred Tichenor and Joe Hunn testified
for the prosecution as to the age of
the hides. They said one of the hides
had been removed from three to six
weeks while the other was fresh hide

Federal Farm Loan Associa.
ton Will Be Organized Here
to Secure Cheap Money
INITIAL STEPS TAKEN

This community has taken steps to-
ward the organization Of federal
farm loan association under the new
law which provides for the loaning of
money by the government to the farm
ers at low rate of interest. The first
meeting was held last Saturday and
another will be held next Saturday to.
perfect the organization.
The farmers met in the Orpheurr
theater and W. R. Callicotte called the
meeting to order and stated the object
of the gathering. He referred to the
interest the Farmers Alliance had
taken in this legislation and told how
he, as delegate from this organiza-
ton, had visited Washington and in
terceded with the porper committee in
behalf of the present measure, or the
bill waicb was finally drafted in.c the
present law. :.
fr. taylor was the next speaker and
he told Of his part in the passage of
The present law, but assured those
present that no man or dozen or hum
dred could claim credit for its passage
as 1t was the outgrowth of a demand
winch has been increasing for many
years to meet need which had grown
to be imperative.
Mr.. Taylor said the farmer was the
backbone of the country and it was
only right that many Of our law.
should be passed in his behalf and this
was one of the best pieces of legisIa-
tion that had ever come to the farmer
through the national law making BODY.
When Mr.. Taylor concluded b;s re-.
marks the chairman suggested that a
chairman be selected for th. committee
or association which was 10 be formed
In this community R. c. Alfred. conn
ty agrieulturist, was at once placed in
nomination and elected, and Miss l..
M. Bailar was chosen az secretary of
the new organization.
Mr.. Alfred went into the provis;o,s
OF the new law very thoroughly AMI
explained in some detail the operations
Of the act and the mode of procedure
necessary to those who would take ad-
vantage of the law.
Many questions were asked by those
present and answered hy Mr.. Taylor
and Mr.. Alfred and it was then de-
elded best to hold another meeting be-

ton as there appeared to be no occn-
sion for haste. Therefore, another

And his promise his oath.
Day by day he struggled bravey,
But the world misjudged his worth.
And he gave his life's best service
To each one who sought his door,
He was kind and true and noble;
But his sin was-he was poor o
Oft he craved word of comfort
AS he toiled along his way
But the friend he thought might give it o
Never had a word to say.
And, when youthful hopes had vanished O
And his heart numb with pain, .

DESERVE CREDIT.

And while we're about it, we want
to call attention to the noble work
performed by the volunteer fire de-
partment at the big fire of yesterday.
Chief Doran and his men certainly de-
serve the highest praise.
Battling in the open, with the Their
mometer hugging the bottom Of the
tube, the volunteers got. on the job
in a hurry after the alarm sounded
and stuck to their, work like TrOj-
ans. They confined the fire to the
building in which it originated and
saved the handsome brick block ad-
joining and saw. to it that no other
structure suffered. It was hard job
and a cold job, and one not envied,
but it demonstrated beyond any doubt
that the fire department of Bemidji
is manned by firemen who do things,
no matter what obstacles may arise
nor conditions.
They certainly deserve all that's
coming to them and then some.

ASHES MAKE PROGRESS.

Destruction precedes progress.
Nothing can proceed without destruc-
ton. And in this undeniable fact
the fire of yesterday which destroyed
the Dalton block may be a forerunner
of bigger, more substantial and
more beautiful structure than that
which was wiped out.
The old building was relic of an
early day. It was not unattractive
in many ways and occupied one of
TIT most desirable corners of the bust
ness district. It had served it's pur-
pose, however, and like all things
earthly passed on.
The Pioneer regrets the loss of
Mr.. Dalton, regrets that any one lose,
but the Pioneer. hopes that from the
ashes of today will rise a modern
business structure, one of which Be-
midi may we'll be proud, and the
Pioneer believes that if such. comes
to pass the best of tenants will be
secured and>at good rentals.

LET CANDLE CLEAN.

We hope that Bemidji will this
year revive the custom of placing
lighted candles in the windows of
homes Christmas eve, this custom be-
ing in vogue in foreign countries
where the spirit of Christmas means
much. The placing of lighted tapers
in windows is done to light the
Christ child on his way and is in
deed beautiful custom and one that
will cause many to pause as to its
significance.
