under such unique circumstances.
The upper tiers Of the immense roof

down below, many hundreds and
seemingly several thousand men are
crowded about David Rossi as he tells
what should be done to prevent the
increase in taxation. It is all to
strange as almost to seem uncanny.
The dramatic appearance Of Roma, de-

thing the memory of which will

the status of the waiter, according
to G. B. Sims, secretary of the Brit
ish Hotel Restaurant and Club En-
ployers Society. Heretofore London
has depended largely upon aliens for
table service. While the French and

To replace these the society has
opened a training school for walters.
There has always been a shortage of
English walters in the past and it was
this that brought about the influx of

occupation a more desirable one the

Naval Militia
Protects Bemidii
From Invasion

The Bemidji Naval Militia is one
of the best in the state. The divi-
sion was formed June 23, when Cap
tan G. A. Eaton, Commander Of the
Minnesota companies, issued call to
81 young men Of the city who will
1ngly pledged themselves to the sup
port of the nation and henceforth
were to don the armor of the sailor
once a week for the next three years.
Until August when the regular
uniforms and paraphernalia came,
the officers, E. A. Barker, lieutenant
senior grade, Ralph Lycan, Lieutenant
junior grade, and William Mcdonald,
ensign, who were unanimously elect
ed at muster in and who we're largely
responsible for the company's orga-
nlzation and subsequently marvellous
progress, were kept busy instructing
the unsophistocated seamen in the
commands and ships etiquette.
Soon after the uniforms arrived the
militia took it's first annual cruise
on the ship Gopher" and owing to
the excellent tutelage of the three
officers, the Bemidji boys won in
practically every drill over other di-
visions, namely Crosby, Pine River
and Lindstrom. Such favorable
showing was made as to win the
praise of the state officers, Lieutenant
Kelly and Captain Eaton.
The division, regardless of it's
short career, has developed into one
of the favorite divisions of the state
which has aided much in the getting
the division full equipment. Sixty
guns and lockers of the latest kind
are in the possession Of the company
besides complete uniforms for the
present enrolment of SO private sea-
men and three officers. Two whale
boats 80 feet long, one a 40 man and
the other 80 man capacity are in
the possession of the company. A
guncutter, 80 feet long with a 70 man
capacity and three pound gun COM
pletes the present equipment.
At present while it is impossible
to have boat drill either "schOOl' or
marching drill is held once a week.
Athletically as we'll as in military
sense, the Bemidji company is among
otot
football team was formed, the pros
poets for basketball are exceedingly
fine, for the militia quint will have
nearly all the last years big Be-
midg" stars who made a wonderful
showing. A Schedule of eight games
is being prepared
- Socially, the division has not been
extremely active. It has, however,
given one of the best dances ever
sheld in Bemidji. The future society
frills will not be as few and far be-
tween for starting after Easter with
it's first annual ball, the boys
plan to keep things moving continu-
ous1y and the organization promises
to be Bemidji's best social center.
Among the things which have been
promised but not yet attained is a
new $4,000 armory. The state
furnishes $4,000 and the city $4,000
and site for an Armory. With such
an Armory the local division would
be second to none in the state.
Through the efforts of Captain
Eaton of Duluth the Secretary of
War has only recently allotted the
battleship "Topeka" for the use of
all Minnesota companies and appor-
toned $15O,OOO for repairs and new
equipment. The new ship will be
ready for the next annual cruise
on Lake Superior.

CASH SMITH
ARRIVES At LAST

Cash c. Smith returned from Pail.
sade this morning, and thereby hangs
a tale. Cash departed from Wells
yesterday on No. 10 to keep an ap-
pointment here, but the darkness of
the tunnels affected him and he fell
to sleep. When he awoke the train
was pulling into the Carlin yards. At
Carlin he. took No. 6 last night but he
is said to have become so interested
in conversation with a fair lady pas
senger that he forgot to get off until
the train reached Deeth. At Deeth he
took No. 5 about midnight, giving in
structions to the trainmen to put him
off at Elko. He was rather rudely
awakened by a conductor when the
train was near Palisade. who demand
ed his ticket. Not a little chagrinned
he left the train It Palisade and
caught No. 10, east bound this morn
ing.
Cash stood up all the way to Elko-
not straight up because the roofs of
the cars are not high enough to per.
nit him to stand straight up to be
sure that he would not fall asleep
again. When Cash gets started 1t
is sometimes hard for him to stop,
but he is a persistent cuss and general
ly lands right side up if given a little
time.

BAckHkUL PROTESTS
ARE HEARD

WASHINGTON, April 12.-Repre-
sentatives of Pacific coast cities and
cities some distance back in the inter
Tor protested before the interstate
commerce commission today against
the proposal Of eastern railroads to re-
duce b rate-making basis from east
ern points in so-called 'back-haul" ter
ntory in coast and inter-mountain
states.
Arguments in the case were heard
by Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Clark and Examiner Thurtell Of the
commission.
Following a C. decision of the
commission which ordered the rates
to backhaul point reduced to some
what less than the through rate to Pa
cthc coast terminals plus the return
ratc to the destination, the railroads
proposed to make the terminal rate
for rate-making purposes seven cents
less a hundred pounds on carload lots
and 10 cents less a hundred pounds
on less than carload lots than the real
terminal rates.
Thus the rate for the haul back
would be added to make the new rate
to tackhaul points. Representatives
OF the Pacific cities and cities some
distance from the coast protested that
the plan would be discriminate against
them. Attorney Mann, for the San
Francisco chamber of commerce, said
that Sacramento, Los Angeles. San
Jose and other California towns hav.
ing a rate from San Francisco less
than the proposed reduction would be
given practically the same rates as
seaport terminals, despite the water
competition al the seaboard.

HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY ENFORCE
A SPLENDID RULE.

BY reference to the notes on the
High school tryout 1t will be seen that
only the boys who are keeping up
with their class work will be allowed
to participate in the field and track
meets.
This Is a splendid idea and one
which should be strictly adhered to.
1t often occurs in high schools and
colleges that the athlete is favored,
and scholarship requirements are very
Lax. AS a result the best athletes Of
ten leave the school with book learning
far below what 1t should be, and they
are not fitted to follow the pursuits
for which they are supposed to have
prepared.
The rule adopted in the Elko school
lie that a certain standard in scholar
ship must be attained for eligibility
to team, and on account OF low schol-
arships 1t Is said that several Of the
best athletes will not be permitted
to make the trip to Winnemucca for
the field meet there on the 18th.
Athletics in schools are undoubted-
ly good If properly conducted. 1t is
recognized by the faculty Of the Ell
ko schools, however, that interest in
athletics may be allowed to run to the
INJURY of scholarships. The rule adop-

rounced that the building is complet.
ed and ready for occupancy. If every.
thing is found to conform to plans
and specifications the building will be
accepted today.
The Wells high school building is

yada, and the residents of that section
may well feel proud of it. 1t cost

STOP DRUG SLAVERY.

THE enforcement OF the federal
drug law calls attention In a startling
way to the great number of persons
addicted to the use OF such narcotics
az. opium, cocaine, laudanum, NOR.
phine and other and composite drugs
OF like nature, comments the Journal.
In the metropolitan cities the problem
caused by the enforcement Of the law
has been a severe one. Numerous
suicides have followed the sudden cut
ting of of the drug and in many other
cases victims have been committed to
city and county hospitals.
This demonstration shows that
stringent measures were not adopted
any too soon. With a hold more COM
plete than ever liquor manifested
these drugs have produced infinitely
more damage in the individual case
and the prevalence Of the habit in
Dictated that it would r. Tut a few
years before the damage would be as
great in quantity as 1t was intense in
quality.
The experience of the federal Off
GERS has been remarkable in showing
not only the large percentage of per
sons addicted to the drugs but the
extremes Of social condition repre-
scented by the victims. 1t is said that
an alarmingly large percentage of
society women are found to be vic
Tins, while practically one.third of all
confirmed criminals are addicted to
the use of such form and cocaine. The
cutting off of the supply has reveal
&c these to a large degree that was
believed to exist by police observers
who prided themselves on-their ability
to detect the signs. In the larger
cities when great distress is shown,
physicians are assigned to care for the
case and to make an exact record of
he patient as an addict" with direc-
tions to other physicians that they
may not prescribe drugs again for
such patients unless they agree to
enter on a thorough sanitarium course
for the overcoming of the habit.
1t is a matter of common knowledge
that traffic in drugs in Nevada has
been almost wide open In certain Sec
tons and hat prosecutions were at
q minimum. 1t is to be hoped that
with the help Of the federal law this
business will be stamped out once
and for all.

THE DETERMINATION OF PESTS.

THE government and the states pile
millions on millions in pursuit Of the
boil weevil. gypsy and other moths,
San Jose and other scales, grasshop-
pers, beetles, c%aterpillars, flies, etc.
Yet the damage to crops in this coun-
try from instect pests is placed at
$500. 900, 900 annually.
In the long run these enemies Of
the food supply will be fought sue
cessfully only by introducing para.
sites, the natural foes Of these in
sects. But that requires years for
scientific investigation and expert
ment.
Fol- some reason or other pests
seem far more than they
we're years ago. The killing off of
birds is probably the principal cause.
Yet this may not be the only reason.
In these days when so much money
ia being spent by government agencies
for pest suppression, does the indi-
vi6ual farmer feel the responsibility
for cleaning them off his own land?
Or does he sit back and let the state
and national agricultural departments
do the work for him?
The old time farmer fought pests
with a good deal of diligence. Years
ago a plague of canker worms swept
over the apple growing parts of the
country. Many people will recall the
care with which farmers in the Sec
tons affected used to smear belts of
sticky substances around the base
OF their trees to trap the worms. Thus
many orchards were saved, and after
a few years the plague subsidized. Gov
ernment agencies need all the help
the individual land owner can give in
these efforts.
In sections now afflicted with the
caterpillar and certain other insects,
oranges and other farmers organiza.
tons are doing a useful work in en-.
listing the children to fight them.
Many varieties of pests can be kept
down by destroying their nests. The
individual farmer may say that the
individual bugs hat he destroys are
not the same ones that attack his
crops. But If he sets the example of
fighting the insects wherever possible,
1t will encourage his neighbors to take
hold and clean them out or at least
hold them down.
