FREEDOM IS CELEBRATED
ALL OVER RUSSIAN EMPIRE
While Socialists and RcvoIutlonists
Are Dissatisfied, Most Of the Peo-
Pile Receive the News With
Deepest Joy.

st Petersburg Tuesday all
Russia was busily engaged in cele-
brating the emperor's gift of freedom,
which the greater part of the people
received with deepest joy, though in
St Petersburg, Moscow and other
cities socialists and revolutionists or.
ganized anti-government demonstra.
tions and red flag parades, which.
with the patriotic demonstrations, led
to number of conflicts between the
reds" and whites" as the anti
government and royalist factions are
respectively termed. On the whole,
the day passed more quietly in Rus
sia than had been expected. Riots
were reported at Kazan, Kishineff and
Poltava, and two men were killed.
In each of the two capitals, st.
Petersburg and Moscow, the day was
one such as the Russians never be-
fore have seen. The Slavic people
who. during the long war just closed
and the anxious period preceding the
announcement of the new era of con-
stitutionalism, seemed self-restrained
and apathetic, gave themselves fully
to the exuberance of the moment and
spent the entire day in parades and
assemblies, which for the first time in
the history of Russia were freely per-
mitted. Under the orders OF Count
Witte and General Trepoff, the troops
generally were withdrawn from the
streets of the cities and the fullest
rein given the people to let out their
enthusiasm in demonstrations, which,
so long as they were not destructive,
were not interfered with.
The soldiers off duty mingled freely
with the demonstrators and frater-
nized with the populace
A number of them, including sey-
eral officers, placed themselves at the
head of one procession, provoking
wild cheers.
A feature of the day was the in
tense enmity displayed by the ora
tors against General Trepoff. the agi-
tators universally demanding his re-
moval, and at a great meeting in the
one orator openly called
for volunteer to kill him. Count
Witte, however, does not seem in
clined to throw him overheard, at
least for the present, and has also
the proposals for the removal
Of the troops as sheer folly.

Berlin.-Recent events apparently
have turned the thoughts of Emperor
William toward the probability Of
Germany soon becoming involved in
war. His speeches at Dresden on
Wednesday and in Berlin on Thurs
day contained pointed references to
the probability of war and the neces-
sity of being ready for it. Addressing
the officers of Saxon Grenadier regi-
ment at Dresden, the emperor said:
1--WE live in time when every
young German capable of bearing
arms must be ready to give himself to
the fatherland."
At banquet given in his honor in
the Dresden Schloss Thursday even
ing, the emperor, replying to the
kings toast to his health, said.
'If the German empire continues to
prosper, then we can calmly, with
raised visor and with the courage of
free German men, confront any one
who should venture to cross our path
or to disturb us in the promotion of
our reasonable interests"
After unveiling the statue of Field
Marshal Won MoltlIe Thursday, his ma
jesty addressed the highest army of

MUNICIPAL
INDEBTEDNESS
DEVILS LAKE WANTS THE RE.
sTRicrioN ON CITY INpEHT.
EDNEss lEssENEp TO PER.
NIT PUBLIC IMPROVE
MENTS.

Devils Lake Free Press: The legis.
lature meets at Bismarck next Mon.
day, and remains in session for sixty
days. There are q number Of matters
upon which legislation has been pro-
posed that may be considered with
profit to the state. Someone should
propose an amendment to the consti-
tuition in the matter of raising or
eliminating the limit of municipal in
debtedness. There is q good reason
why an individual, in the conduct of
his business, should keep his indebted
ness within a reasonable limit. He
may meet misfortunes that will stop
his producing power and If he was
heavily incumbered it would make a
hard pull for him. w.
But there is no such danger to the
state, county or city. They often need
public improvements faster than the
annual taxation will provide. Why
not sell bonds to build roads, bridges,
streets, sewers and asylums? Under
the present rule, the debt limit is so
low that these improvements must be
paid out of the annual tax, and Of
course prevents lots of improvement
that would be made If it could be
made "on time"
A man will object to putting a
sewer on his street that Is to add $500
to his taxes the present year, but
would favor IT If the plan was for him
to pay SO year for twenty years.
Then there is the matter of interest.
II the individual should borrow 5000
on his home to pay for the sewer 1t
would cost him 10 per cent, while
bonds Of the city would be sold for S
per cent. As long as the borrowed
money Of a city is wisely expended for
substantial public improvements there
is no danger Of the debt getting too
big. Let us have change.

Another N. p. FLYER.

The Pioneer Press states that an
ether overland flyer soon will be put
into service by the Northern Pacific
Railway Co. It will be put on short
~ after the beginning of the new year
and will be for the purpose Of afford
ing increased facilities to travellers
who will go westward on account Of
the Lewis and Clark exposition at
Portland. The train will make few
stops and it is thought that it will re-
duce the running time Of the North
Coast Limited by at Least one hour.
Such a train was considered feasible
at the recent meeting OF division su-
such running schedule is the out
come of discussion of the matter at
that meeting. +!
The same authority states that the
block system which has proven SO sat
isfactory on the Minnesota and North
Dakota divisions is to be extended,
and special attention given to that
portion between Spokane and Ellens-
burg, Wash, where the blocks will
be two and half to five miles long
with side track at each block for
laying out trains until their turn
comes. 49,.
The block system now comes as far
west as jamestown.

Grafton in sany comprehensive review
of our own status. Civilization every
where is advancing with amazing
speed. Science and invention are
working miracles; and the stimulus of;
electricity and steam, backed by In
creasing wealth and the awakening
of dormant energies in the uttermost
parts Of the earth, are accountable for
much of the present prosperity of the
United States. Our little globe is
rapidly being made smaller and
human intercourse more easy by tele-
phones, telegraphs, railroads, steam
ships, machinery and progressive
business methods. BY such agencies
mans work is made easier and more
efficient; new wants are created and
new employments constantly discov-
cred, all contributing to that marvel
GUS development of material wealth
in which the United States leads the
world. With rapidly increasing
population Of more than S2,0OO,0O0,
with unrivaled natural resources, with
unlimited capital, with energy, enter
prise, skill, mechanical facilities and
transportation systems superior to
those of any other nation, our progress
has been both marvellous and newt
able, though dangerously interfered
with by the over-eagerness Of specu.
lators, trusts and unions to extort
more than their share of the nations
profits.

MINORITY OF MERCHANT MARINE

REPORT SOON. -"
DISCRIMINATING DUTY POLICY
ADVOCATED As A SUBSTITUTE
FOR DIRECT GOVERNMENT
:: AID TO OWNERS.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The views of
the minority Of the merchant marine
commission have been prepared In the
form of . report. which will be Friday
made in the senate by Senator Mallory
Of Florida, and Representative Spight
OF Mississippi In the house. Repre-
sentative McDermott Of New Jersey
also signed the report. Senator Dam
isl Of Virginia is the only Democrat
who has hot signed the report OF the
minority. Representative Spight is
the author of the report, the principal
feature Of which 10 the advocacy of
the discriminating duty policy as q
substitute for direct government aid
for American shipowners as proposed
by the bill presented by the commits
sion. On this bill the minority says
I'VE cannot help but see the trail Of
the serpent, that has been over all
other bills on this subject"
Pointing to the fact that the dis
eliminating duties system has been
the policy of the fathers of the repub.
lie, the minority declares that ship
ping interests were marvelously de-
veloped In our early history and the
same system would bring like results
In this age.
+ It is said that the fear of retaliation
consequent upon the necessity Of
abrogating treaties with maritime
countries In order to carry this sys-
tenn into operation is not we'll founded.
II It says the subsidy or "subvention"
bill Is not as honest as former subsidy
bills. Section OF the subyention bill,
the minority says. is "ingeniously in
troduced by the sugar-coated express
sion, In the interest of the national
defense and for the performance Of
public services While the congress
Of the United States and the American
people may not be deceived by this
thin disguise. the public representa-
tives Of the people are appealed to to
guard against this danger and surely
will deliver this measure to the same
fate as vs. predecessors"
