A. M. Bagiey Skipped.
Through an unintentional error,
the name of A. M. Bagiey, candidate
for alderman-at-large was omitted
from the list of names printed in the
Pioneer last night. Mr. Bagley
comes before the people as an inde
pendent 'Candidate 'for the office^The

Woman*' Suffrage Dead.
Womans' suffrage appears to be a
dead issue as far as this session of
the legislature is concerned. The
action of the senate in turning the
bill down twice" was not unexpected
although the:hackera Of-the measure
had hoped it would pass when they
saw the vote was getting close. The
bill passed the house 80 to 37.
The bills-introduced into the leg
islature were for the purpose Of hav
ing an amendment placed on the
next general election ballot calling
for the changing, of the constitution
in sueh 4i manner that women" might
have equal suffrage with men. The
majority of the house believed that
the men of the state were capable to
pass on tbe question the majority of
the senate ulid not* Representatives
O'Neill and Hanson voted In favor of
the bills.
Few expected that the senate last
Friday would reverse its:
their interests practically1
T^1"
former "de-
cision but the manner in which the
bill was killed will probably reflect
in its favor. Friday's action was a
battle of wits and parliamentary
procedure. The decision- to reject
the bill established a new precedent
in Minnesota procedure.
The agitation for suffrage this
year has been conducted on such a
sane basis that sentiment in its favor
is steadily growing.
Reapportionment.
After several years of waiting and
agitation, during which time the
country has been rapidly developing,
Northern Minnesota sees a glimmer
of hope that representation in the
state legislature will be so changed
that she will obtain at* least a part
that is due her,-
A reapportionment bill has been
written by a committee and has been
made a special order of business in
the house Thursday morning.' This
bill increases the representation of
Northern Minnesota and does not
materially decrease the representa
tion of Southern Minnesota. In this
provisional bill, Beltrami and Kooch
oching county are coupled with one
senator and two representatives.
This representation is satisfactory
to the people of Beltrami and Kooch
iching counties. Our interests are
are same in many ways'since these
two counties are the only ones in the
state where settlers are few and must
be taxed high. Itasca and St. Louis
counties have valuable mines. Bel
trami and Koochiching are intimate-"
ly concerned in the problemsof goofd
roads, more settlers and general de
velopment. The character of the land
and people of the two counties1
makes
idelfiticasr'
Northern "Minnesota is looking for
reapportionment and expects to get it
this session. The people here are
hoping that the house .will act-fav
orably on the bill Thursday so?that it
may be sent to the senateatO|ice.^*

Why Consider Themf
"I think the school*teachers' in thit
town ought to get tatere money than
they do,"
"What put that fcWd of an idea in
your head?"
"Why should we expect the people
who are educating bar children to
work for $70 or $80 a month, when we
pay our chauffeurs at least $100 and"
furnish them with board and lodging
besides?"
"But what does school teacbin'
mount to, anyhow? Look at most of
the teachers. They ain't" got hotblir4'
but education."
Optimistic*
"Dabbs never tires of telling what
the world haa done for him."
"Wealthy, I presume, and has every
hmg money'can buy?"
"No. "About all he'has ixi the world
(s a wife'and three children,.a small
house and a cow.!'
"Oh, well,' somo^'me are Juat that
way."
There is more'Catarrh'in
it incurable..l
rthis section
of the country than all other disease*
put together,, and until the last few
years was Supposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
it a~ loca) disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing, to
cure with
locaSoiehce
treatment, pronounced

tarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional' treat
ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure manufactur

is the only Constitutional cure on the
