PEACE? NIX, SAYS SOCIALIST
Ralph Korngold Takes Fling at Gear
of Russia and Carnegie.

An audience which last night filled
the City Hall, SO being women, heard
Ralph Korngold, last speaker in the
Socialistic series here; charge present
undesirable economic conditions to
capitalist control and further heard
him hurl word waded bomb at the
Gar Of Russia and our own Andrew
Carnegie: Mr.. Korngold said: "We
cannot expect a genuine movement
for peace from the powers which
profit by war. Those who are feel
ing SO enthusiastic about the Hague
Tribunal, had better remember that
it was called into being by the bloody
czar Of Russia, who since then, at
home as we'll as abroad, has given
ample proof of his insincerity. A
manufacturer of steel armor plate is
also hardly the ideal peace advocate.
War is useful to the men who control
our industries today for various rea-
sons, the principal of which is that
it makes trade brisk, opens up new
markets for the surplus products of
labor" -s... :. +. ..,....-r.

WARM WAVE TO CONTINUE
Lake Region Enjoys Rising Tempera.
lures Following 20 Days Cold.

Following 20 days of cold, rising
temperatures are reported from all
parts of the Northwest. In Bemidji
last night thermometers hovered
around the zero mark as it's lowest
point and today it is we'll above that
mark. The lowest recorded anywhere
last night was five below at Sault ste.
Marie, Mich. The lowest tempera-
ture recorded in the northwest last
night was in Duluth, where the mer-
curry stopped at degrees above. st.
Paul reported 10 above, Des Moines
20 above, Milwaukee Ia, Madison 10,
and other points in the northwest
reported corresponding temperatures.
Canadian stations reported a mini
mum of above at Minnedosa and a
maximum of 40 above at Medicine
Hat. Other Canadian points reported
temperatures varying from 8 above
at Winnipeg to 80 above at Calgary.
All these places had shivered in from
80 to 40 below weather the last few
weeks. The east central states still
were in the grip of the cold wave
which held the northwest in it's grasp
recently, although the Great Lakes
served to temper it somewhat. In
Chicago last night the temperature
was 5 above. Cleveland reported 10
above. Detroit 10, and St. Louis 20.
In Memphis the mercury stood Just at
the freezing point.

Expect State Commission to Order
Erection Of Station for All Trains
Not Later Than Spring.
ORGANIZE FIRE DEPARTMENT
Apparatus Purchased and Men to Be
Drilled Under Direction Of Earl
Cell, Bemidji Chief.

AT meeting of the village coun-
Gil in Nymore last evening it was
decided that the liquor license of the
mill suburb be raised from $500 to
$3.50.
It was also decided that volunteer
fire department be organized.
Buy Chemical Extinguishers. e.
Fire apparatus has been ordered
and some is at present on hand.
Today half dozen chemical ex-
tinguishers from Bemidji were added
to the Nymore equipment.
To Have Depot.
Still another step taken by Ny
more is an attempt to have the state
railroad and warehouse commission
compel the erection of a depot.
This would mean that all trains
would stop at Nymore, instead of
making the sBemidji station the ter
m1nal, as is at present the case.
Feel Petition Will Be Granted,
The petition for a depot was pre-
sented to the commission some time
ago where, it is said, it has received
favorable consideration and that in
the spring Nymore will have depot.
The action of the Nymore council
in boosting the liquor license comes
as the climax of long discussion on
the point.
High License; Less Saloons.
1t appeared to be the consensus of
opinion of the residents that more
orderly and generally more desirable
town would result from the increased
license. 49, 81 ~
1t was also argued that to increase
the license would mean that the pres
ent number of three saloons probably
would not be increased.
10 Profit by Past Fires.
In the organization of the new fire
department it was pointed out that
during the past year the village has
suffered serious losses that might
have been protected with a properly
organized and drilled fire department.
Cell to Drill Them.
A request has been made by Ny
more to have Earl Cell, chief of the
Bemidji fire department assume the
task of drilling the new department
and this Mr.. Cell has promised to do.
The Bemidji and Nymore depart
ments will work in as close harmony
as possible so that in case of emer-
gency their stdength may be COM
bined.
