The Pioneer contest will
close promptly at noon
Thursday.
The regular subscription
price to the Daily Pioneer is
$5 per year, but subscrip
tions will be accepted at $4
per year up to Thursday
noon. Interest in the contest in Be
midji to determine what young
lady and three of her friends will
go to Duluth next Saturday to
see Ben Hur at the Lyceum thea
tre at the expense of the Pioneer
is at a white-heat. The friends of
all three candidates now in the
running are each determined
that their candidate shall be the
fortunate winner of the contest
and the finish will furnish plenty
excitement for all concerned.
The contest at Tenstrike, Tur
tle River and Blackduck is if
anything hotter than that at
Bemidji. Miss Cyr at Tenstrike
is making a most gallant fight
and is nothing daunted by the
rumors of a dark horse at that
point. Miss Johnson at Turtle
River keeps right on showing
unexpected strength" and she
will undoubtedly have to be
reckoned with at the finish. The
great fight up the north line how
ever is at Blackduck where there
are no less than five candidates
and each is determined to win.
It is pretty safe to say that noth
ing will get away from the Black
duck people.
Miss Craig at Kelliher is said
to have a big bunch of votes in
reserve and there are rumors to
the effect that there will be some
thing doing from Northome
Thursday morning.

four camps and it is planned to
cut about 20,000,000 feet The
tracts cut will be those recently
purchased by the Cbmpanv at the
sale of reservation pineat Cass
Lake.
Glanders Quarantined.
Dr. Blakeslee, the local health
officer, started on an eighteen
mile drive just before noon to
day to the Ungerman farm in
the town of Prohn, where a case
of glanders is reported The
animal is a horse owned by Jake
Ungerman. The doctor will
establish the usual quarantine
and will immediately report the
case to the state authorities.

BAN PLACED ON AMBULANCES.
Strike of Chicago Livery Stable Driv
ers Continues.
Chicago, Dec. 22.No sign of peace
had entered into the livery drivers'
strike when the fourth day of the
trouble began. Ambulances have come
under the ban of the striking pickets,
according to reports received from
undertakers and liverymen, who de
clare that police will be necessary to
man the conveyances of the sick as
well as those of the dead.
A number of extra "business agents"
were posted throughout the city dur
ing the day by the Livery Drivers'
union for the purpose, say the union
officials, of preventing interference on
the part of union sympathizers with
the movement of hearses should the
undertakers attempt to substitute
them for the black "dead wagons."
The undertakers and liverymen are
accused by the union officials of seek
ing to divert public sympathy from the
strikers.
Twelve independent undertakers
are reported by the union as having
signed the wage and hour agreement.
DEAD MAN AS IWOTCmivlAN.
Peculiar Incident of Street Car Traffic
in Des Moines.
Des Moines, Dec. 22.Street car 150
pulled into the central depot here dur
ing the evening with a dead man for
motorman. Motorman Gladstone, after
shutting off the current two blocks
away, was stricken with apoplexy and
sank to the floor lifeless. Momentum
carried the car to the station, where
his wife awaited him with his lunch.
She fainted upon discovering his hody.
A few moments before the car had
passed down the longest and steepest
hill in town, laden with passengers,
and had the motorman been stricken
there a terrible accident would have
resulted. _..

For eight years we have been
telling of the wonderful future of
Bemidji. Man have been unbeliev
ing. They have lost fortunes. Every
year proved our prediction many
times over. Bemidji will one day
be a great city, and townsite lots,
now to be had cheap, will be worth
big money. Bu now.
