The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1916-06-15

A glance at the map of the state will
indicate how admirably situated it is
geographically, for becoming a met
ropolis of the great north country. It
is the logical commercial center of a
territory embracing something in ex-
cess of 10000 square miles, terri
tory which is developing rapidly.
Lake Bemidji, with it's superb
Beaches it's waters of crystal clear
ness, it's irregular shore-ine, with
wooded bluffs and it's waters teeming
with gamey fish, adds, in every way,
to Bemidji claims as a city beautiful.
Bemidji has the northern Mime
sofa climate, a climate that is health
full and vigorous for the full-blooded
man who wants to DO days work.
The cool breezes of summer followed
by the. long mild days of golden au-
tumn offer attractions that make
those of California seem insipid.
Bemidji is entered by the Mime
sofa & international, 500, Great
Northern and the Minneapolis, Red
Lake G Manitoba railways.
Bemidji ranks as the fourth in the
state as a shipping center. The city
is in the center of the great pine for
ests of northern Minnesota and the
main industry is numbering.
Bemidji is on the route of the
Wonderland trail from Duluth to the
Yellowstone national park and is on
the proposed route of the Jefferson
highway from New Orleans to Win
nipeg.
Bemidji offers to the young man
| opportunities peculiar to new coun-
try with potential wealth and open
ing for leadership in every branch
of activity. To the man of family
| it offers not only a home where he
can secure for his children the ad-
vantages of good schools and healthy
wholesome surroundings, but work
in country not already crowded
with business and laboring men. For
the manufacturer it has ready and
adequate power for industrial pur-
poses, in close proximity to timber
supply, a large and growing market
and east transportation of his pro-
ducts in all directions. To the in
weston it affords an opportunity to
pick up for only small sum, prop

erty which offers exceptional advans
tages in the way of sure returns: To
the seeker of pleasure it affords a
lake resort, which for the beauty of
surroundings, for variety and quality
of fish and game, for it's boating and
bathing and equable summer tenn
perature, is unsurpassed. To the
seeker of health it gives fresh, dry
air, uncontaminated by dust and
malaria, heavy with the ozone of the
forest. It furnishes pure drinking
water and a climate which supplies
the natural antitoxins of disease.
So Bemidji bids her honored guests
of today most cordial welcome,
hoping that they will enjoy their
stay i'm Bemidji and hoping that the
| impressions they carry away will be
pleasant We hope that they will
come again to this magic City Of
the North.'

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS ,
OF HALF A. CENTURY,
AGO IN REUNION
(By United Press)

Faribault, Mimi, June 15.-The
romantic and stirring times Of school
girl days during the Indian wars here
were recalled today when the fiftieth
anniversary of the founding of St..
Mary's school for girls was cele-
brated.
"Old Girls" some of whom were
among the earlier graduates of this
school that was hewed out in the
wild northern woods, gave several
thousand dollars today for the erec-
ton of a gymnasium for the young
girls.
The original object of the school
was to give daughters of clergymen
doing missionary work among the
wild Dakota Indians here half CEN
fury ago, chance to get an educa-
ton.

WELCOME SAETESDALSLAGET,

Several hundred members of the
Saetesdalslaget, national Norwegian
organization, are today the guests Of
the city Of Bemidji. The organiza-
ton is composed of former residents
of the Saetesdal district in Norway
Meetings of "get-acquainted" con-
ventions are held annually.
The city of Bemidji extends her
most cordial welcome to the Saetes-
dalslaget. The city's gates swing
wide. Bemidji appreciates the honor
to entertain this Norwegian organi-
cation.
Sixty miles north from the nearest
railroad, Chief Bemidji, chief of the
Chippewas, thought he was safe from
the encroachment of the white man.
But one day with the beautiful au-
tumn haze. hanging over the lake he
saw white man invade his country
The white men blazed their way and
cut wogan road through the prime
val forests and established a trading
post on a beautiful lake to barter
Indians were peaceful and we'll dis
posed toward the whites.
Several years later the little colony
of whites had grown to 200 souls
and in May, 1896, their colony was
incorporated into the village of Be-
midji. The village was named in
honor of the old chief who died in
April, 1904, at the age of IS years.
In 1896 Bemidji became the mecca
for many settlers from all sections
of the south and west, and the tide
of immigration has ever since surged
this way, resulting; in one season
in the location of the present site of
the city, a sufficient population to
justify the organization of a city:
So much historical lore is associ-
ated with Bemidji that it would re-
quire columns to properly depict it
in all it's elements of bravery, viger,
spontaneity, romance, richness and
beauty.
In twenty years Bemidji has grad
uated to first class city of nearly
5000 population, and which has now
unprecedented recognition for pro-
gressiveness and energy. In COM
paratively few years it has won the
non-de-plume Of "The Hub City of
the Northwest" "The Magic City of
the North" and 1.-THE City of Enter
PRISE"
JBemidji has many means for being.
It is situated on the west shore of the
beautiful lake by the same name, in
Reltrami county: Minnesota. Briefly
stated, it is o7o miles north of ST..
Paul and Minneapolis, 100 miles west
of Duluth, 80 miles east Of Crookston
and 118 miles east from Grand Forks.

TALKS OF DANCE
 AND THE THEATER

In the course of sermon to the young people of the First M. E. church yesterday morning, Rev. G. Bromley OXnam discussed the dance and the theater, stating that Christianity has no war with recreation.
 "The drama is one of the mightiest of preachers" said Rev. Oxnam, "and the church should see to it that the sermons of Shakespeare, Ibsen, Ken nedy and Zangwill are heard How ever the church is right in attacking that which today bulks largest on the stage, vaudeville, the meaningless comic opera and the demoralizing play. Theatrical management which plays for the sake of the dollar rather than for the sake of art, beauty and educa- tion, makes it well nigh impossible for the church to cooperate in present dramatic enterprise. Likewise the dance should be one of the greatest recreational forces, but here again the dance promoter has put forth style of dancing that is not only a disgrace to our day, but extremely dangerous morally.
 With such conditions facing us. it seems there is but one thing to do, and that is for the city to build an adequate social center, where the great dramas can be produced; where folk, inter- pretatiye and gymnastic dancing can be enjoyed a place calculated to serve the recreational needs of the popuace.
 "Phoenix could well afford to build such a center, putting in a we'll equipped gymnasium, swimming pool and reading room, together with an auditorium for civic gatherings and musical events. Such a plant would

the groundwork was laid for the Car rizal incident long before the republi- can convention; that the Mexican gov ernment long before the date of the warned our government that American troops in Mexico marching in any other direction than north would surely march into trouble. The Americans marched east into Carrizal.
 The republican convention did not as ]. Ham inferred in his foolish speech in the senate on Saturday, nor did Mir. Hughes afterward. criticise the presi- dent for any vigorous action to safe guard American lives along the border But both the convention and MT. Hughes, as well as the whole American people, condemned the administration for a weak and purposeless invasion of Mexico, the expedition to Vera Cruz, the holding of troops in Mexican ter ritory where they had accomplished nothing and when, plainly. the admin istration itself would permit them to make no aggressive move even if there had been enough of them to move ag- gressively.

 Several ten foot holes. sunk at ran dom merely for the purpose of doing assessment work as rapidly as possi- ble. opened rock carrying copper and gold.
 There are a number of quartz out crops over the property which carry some gold. Good reason exists for be- lieving that there is a rich gold lode somewhere in that part of the dis trict because for many years Indians and Mexicans washed gold dust from the sand on a flat between the United Verde Extension and Clarkdale. They never found any big nuggets and often. they toiled all day for a few cents worth of dust, but the gold must have come from some place on Jerome Superior ground.
 The Indians washed the sand in a spring of brackish water which flows right out of contact. This spring is regarded by mining men as an excel ,ent indication of ore.

 shaft. The latter plan is being very seriously considered.
 In this connection it is recalled that when the United Verde company de- ,ided to sink it's No. 3 shaft, 1t went entirely away from the known ore zone in order to find solid ground. When he shaft had been sunk 1000 feet down through the lime, there was the ore. The Jerome Superior people feel that they have the same chance to get ore in ground that has little or no surface indications.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
The Mexican Policy

Editor Republicans:
 We should know better than to think that America has no alternative she must fight. After three years of Wilson sidestepping. we might have known that he would resort to cor respondence rather than bullets 10 settle with Mexico. Two years ago when Wilson sent warships and ma rines 10 Vera Cruz to make Huerta salute the flag. and then backed out without accomplishing the purpose Of the expedition, We thought he made I mistake and showed weakness. Now, with the entire United States army on the border and thousands of troops in Mexico directed to settle with Villa. he has backed up again. and the troops will very likely be with drawn without the purpose of the expedition being accomplished
 Thus has Wilson made two false starts God knows America does not want war. the man who clamors for war is not necessarily patriot, nor the man who asks for peace a knave. but we cannot for the life Of us see how MT. Wilson can sidestep the fact that America must protect her citi- Zens.
 Many American lives have been SacrlIlced botn clNlilan and soldier, in the two fiascos with Mexico. during the Wilson administration. No think ing American doubts the fact that sooner or later Uncle Sam must in tervene in Mexico and bring about a stable government. That will not only insure the life and property of Americans on American soil, but on Mexican soil. the MeNicans have slaughtered helpless American citi- zens. pillaged American towns and burned and destroyed property. Mex ican soldiers not bandits - have trapped our soldiers and slaughtered them. What must Mexico to t0 America and American citizens to rouse Wilson to protect his country
 The American people Tre weary of Wilson's vacillatipg policies We have become the laughing stock of the world. Mexico has spat on us. dared us to core on. and when Wilson re- sorted to his ever ready note policy, the willy Carranza nut it all over him. Never before in the history of Amer ica hns the flag been insulted and tramnled upon without swift and sure punishment tn the culprit. The Will son policy is a sad blow to American ism.

JEROME SUPERIOR
 ORGANIZATION |S
 ABOUT COMPLETED

Organization of the Jerome Superior Copper company for the purpose Of developing 5000 acres of mineral ground just north of Jerome. has been concluded This is regarded as one Of the most important moves made in the Verde district since the United Verde Extension strike was made and the present boom began.
 The ground that this company owns approximately 100 claims, adjoins the Extension, United Verde, Arkansas X Arizona. Jerome Victor Extension, and other well known properties. But 1t has something more than location and extent to recommend it.
 Some of the most prominent men of the district are members of the new company ]. J. Stanton, master me chanic of the United Verde company. is president O. M. Wold. who resigned from the employ of the United Verde last spring after serving five years as mechanical engineer, is vice president Frederick Thing, foreman pipefitter at the Clarkdale smelter. is secretary Thomas Taylor, superintendent of the smelter is treasurer These officers, with Matt Bohn assistant master me chanic, form the board of directors
 Leroy Anderson, of Prescott, attor- Eey for the United Verde. is one of the organizers of the Jerome Superior and is counsel for the new concern. The other organizers are Thomas Sutcliffe, F.. S. Standridge, R. D. Tally and Kent Reese Tally is superintendent of mines for the United Verde and Standridge Is also connected with that company. Sutcliffe is better known as "Scotty' and located number of claims includ- ed in the big consolidation.
 The company is capitalized for $75O,- 900, with 100000 shares each having a par value of fifty cents.
 All the organizers of the company are inclined to be very conservative in their claims. They do not claim that they have a mine but there is no doubt that they have acquired terri tory which has great possibilities.
 There are twelve claims in the group. about ne-eighth of a mile northeast of the United Verde Extension com pany's Edith shaft, that have a par ticularly good surface showing. One of these claims is shallow hole witf copper -impregnated water in the bot tom. A pick recently left in this water for a few days was ruined
 Another shaft on one of these claims is down 75 feet This is the deepest working on the entire property. Thert are two tunnels, each in about ninety feet, and several shallow shafts. There Is no commercial ore in any of these

The Remarks of Mir. Worsiey

We do not agree with many of the opinions of Hon. A. A. Worsley, but we wish that more democrats for their own enlightenment had been present at his meeting on Saturday night. Mir Worsley is a democrat whose loyalty has never been questioned. but there is difference between loyalty and a blind. subservient endorsement of whatever a party may do. The man who happens to be sitting in the presi- : dential chair and the majority in con gress, in the view of Mir Worsley, are not necessarily the party.
 The stand the party. headed by MT. Wilson, has taken on the equal suffrage
Arizona republican., 1916-08-07

question, it was pointed out by Mir Worsley, was not democratic but is in direct contravention of that principle adopted by the democratic party, though we believe it was originally laid down by Lincoin, that govern ments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed" The dem ocratic president and congress, in re- fusing to grant to half the people, the women, the constitutional privilege of granting or withholding their consent are not democratic.
 Mir. Worsley also punctured the rural credits law which was intended to be valuable democratic campaign material. He demonstrated that the law was not intended to afford relief to farmers but to deceive the people at large and to satisfy public clamor with as little interference as possible with the mon- eyed interests.
 It was charged, we remember, on the floors of congress that the bill as agreed upon would serve no purpose except that of temporary deception. It offers nothing to farmers except those who need no special relief or aid Any far mer who can avail himself of the bene- fits of the rural credit law can obtain money at any private or national bank.
 The rural credits law bears no rela- tion at all to the German and Danish rural credits systems which are de- signed to aid all who are worthy of aid.
