The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1919-10-25

The one big problem contranting
the people Of Bemidji and the outside
territory is, "Who will prove the au-
tomobtle winners in The Pioneers
great circulation campaign" Scores
Of predictions have been offered;
even mind readers have been consult
ed by some in an endeavor to obtain
some inkling of what the result will
be. Yet all these quests avail them
naught, for the final outcome is as
much as ever in doubt.
IT frenzied efforts to eliminate as
much of this doubt as possible, can
didates all over The Pioneer territory
are securing the communities cease
lessly. From the waking hours of
the morn until the day is done these
ambitious candidates are fighting the
battle ~courageously, never pausing,
but keeping on and on, that the tide
Of favor will sweep towards them.
Such scenes are seldom witnessed.
Imagine dozens Of candidates, each
thrilled with the spirit Of conquest,
striving nightly for supremacy in
this race. Obstacles that might de-
ter strong-minded men, they push
aside as nothing. Their eyes are set
on the final goal, and ever onward
they proceed nip and tuck.
One candidate wrote yesterday:
II am working at the fastest clip OF
which l am capable, but the time
seems to fly even faster" And that
about covers every candidate in the
field. All Of them have an equal op-
portunity for victory, and none can
say that they have earned a victory
until the result is announced. The
aspirants for automobiles are with
one accord prosecuting their chances
vigorously, and many, who appar-
emily have no chances because Of
their present standings as published,
are going to spring such big surprises
that too-contident ones will go down
to defeat. Overconfidence is the big
gest handicap under which a candi-
date could labor. This unwelcome
attribute causes more regret and dis
appointment than anything else in a
campaign Of this sort. The only way
to be sure of winning is to spend
every possible minute searching for
subscriptions, which, as far as can
be judged and If the reports are to
be believed, is exactly what every
candidate is doing with a vim. Per-
severance is the only winning quail
ity. and coupled with energy Of the
ri"ht kind, will surely land the candi-
date at the top.

Flu" Epidemic
Is Dying Out

From DIR. c. H Wilkinson. city
health officer, il is learned that the
influenza epidemic in the Canon City
district is gradually dying out, both
m the number of new cases and in the
virulence of its attack. Only 10 new
cases of the contagion have been re-
ported in the district during the last
week and so far as can be ascertained
only one or two of them have devel-
oped pneumonia
All of these cases have been of q
mild character and have yielded to
medical treatment readily than similar
attacks of the disease did a month or
six weeks ago. In the majority OF
instances the influenza patients are
sick only a few days. and the complj-
The percentage of fatality has been
greatly reduced by the better under
standing of the disease and more ef-,
fective methods OF treatment. In
some of the more isolated communi-
ties of the county. according to Dr..
wilkinson. the influenza is just be-
ginning 10 make itself felt, and is mo-S
Threatening at present than IL has
been at any time during the winter.
Although reports are heard from
time TO tibe that the influenza in
Canon City and the surrounding terri
tory is on the increase. such is rot
really the case. Not for several
months have the general health condi-
tions in this community been as graft
flying as they are now.

New Manager at

c. J. Tobias arrived here from Dem

charge of the Wolf Park coal mine for
the stockholders CT the company, with
a view of restoring it to productive

Tobias has had wide experience in
the management of coal mines. having
been engaged IL that business in
nearly all of the bituminous produc>
ing states of the Union. He came to
Co'orado about year ago from New
England. The mismalasement OF the
Wolf Park mine. he says, has given
it an unfavorable reputation which he
will do his best to remove
