council TO Assist
river FRONT survey

Following the inspection Of the
Delaware and Christiana River fronts
by William r. Megear, president Of
the Chamber of Commerce; William
T. Budd and Colonel Weller f. Slower.
with a retired naval officer and a
prominent engineer Of New York last
Sunday. members OF Council con-
forred with delegation Of the Cham
Der Of Commerce last night relative
to a survey Of the river front. II was
explained that such a survey would
decide the question as to whether the
north or south side of the Christiana
River is better suited for the river
front project, whether it would be
feasible at all. and if the city would
be justified in going to the expense
incidental to the building of piers
there. AT the conference il was de-
cided that Council would defray one
half the cost Of the survey. the engi-
neer to submit a report to Council
and the Chamber of Commerce.
The question of whether the city
should go TO the river or whether II
should bring the river to the city Is tC
be finally settled Some believe il
would be better and at the same tim'
cheaper to widen, deepen and straighter
out the Christiana river to a point above
this city. thereby bringing the Delaware
river to Wilmington, than it would b'
for the city to build piers along the
Delaware river front. an undert akins
which it is claimed, would cost millions
of dollars.
Just when the engineer will be en-
gagged and who it will be has not beer
determined, but the matter is now il
the hands of the Chamber of Commerce
with the assurance from Council that
the city will pay part of the costs Of the
survey.

NOT Observation-Disclosures
ing that we are able to witness the
horror, the miseries, the unspeakable
woes Of war has brought upon Eu-
rope, our mOneyed men are trying to
embrOil US in this internal slaughter.
It would be wanton murder to en-
ter the European conflict and help
to deVastate more homes, manufac-
ture more orphans and cause more
widow tears and mother anguish, just
to satisfy the vanity of curiosity seek
ers who wish to travel to Europe.
The men and women who travel
to Europe on armed vessels are trait
Ors to their country and to humanity,
for through their selfish desire for
pleasure millions of lives may be
ruined and thousands of homes DESC
lated.
These men are not patriots in love
of country; they only love their cOUn-
try for what they can get out of it.
They love European princes and
kings far more than they love Amer
can men and women.
We haYe no quarrel with any Eu-
ropean Country, each of which is
struggling for its life. We ought to
leave them work out their own sal
walton. It is the duty, of all liberty
loving men and women to protest
against being dragged into the Euro
pean slaughter for the sake of a few
miIliOnaires who are vicious enough
to travel in spite of the dangers and
sorrows it may cause their country.

.LUS|1AN|A CASE
AGAIN TROUBLES
Great Pessimism at Washington
Governments Must Reach Under
standing This Month.

Washington, Feb. 4.-The greatest
pessimism since the beginning of the
war is evident here today as a re-
suit of the latest communication re-
ceived from Germany in regard to
the Lusitania situation. It is un-
derstood that Secretary Lansing has
received a report from Ambassador
Gerard. The report has been for
warded to President Wilson,
Result Of Investigation.
The report, it is stated, covers
what Gerard learned in Berlin. It
is believed that President Wilson will
not yield to the Lusitania demands
made by Germany. The United
States government, according to one
high official, is unable to dicker any
longer with the situation and must
reach an understanding this month.
America Must Yield.
Berlin, Feb. 4.-Unless America
valves the demands Of Germany i,
the disavoWal of. the Lusitania, an
amicable adjustment to the German
American controversy is impossible,
officials and newspapers say today.
The State Local Anzeiger says that
Germany has done it's utmost to prove
friendship for America.

BAND TO PLAY At
MILITIA DRILLS

If the present intentions of the Be-
midi band are carried out, on every
actual drill night the Bemidji Naval
Militia will march to music. The
announcement of such a plan was
made at band rehearsal last evening.
Marching and drilling will, as in
the past, be conducted every other
Monday, but owing to meetings of
the city council on intervening Mon
days, school will be held. At drill
meetings the band will play. popular
marches for one hour, the balance of
the time being devoted to regular re-
hearsals.
By this means, the band will be-
come one of the states military
bands and will be allowed to take the
regular summer outing on the Great

BY VOTE LAST SUMMER

st. Paul, Minn., Feb. 4.-The su-
preme court in a decision filed this
morning held that International Falls
has no right to issue liquor licenses
under the home rule charter that
governs that city. Koochiching coun-
ty was voted dry last summer under

was upheld by the court.
Claim Exclusive Right.
The action was begun by Interna-
tional Falls liquor dealers who de-
sired to have the law tested. The
council attempted to grant licenses
and an injunction against the coun-
Gil was issued by Attorney General
Smith. The International Falls in
terests claimed that the charter Of
that city gave the city exclusive right
to grant licenses.
Appealed to High Court.
The injunction proceedings came
before Judge w. S. McClenahan at
Brainerd and he decided that the
city had no right and the injunction
was made permanent. The matter
was then appealed to the supreme
court.
Judge M. A. Spooner of Bemidji
and Attorney Banks of Grand Forks
represented the International Falls
interests.
The supreme court also decided
that although six dry votes were
found Illegal, Redwood county is dry
by four votes.

FIRE IN NYM0RE
DESTROYS SUMMER HOUSE

Fire of unknown origin last night
destroyed the summer sleeping house
in the rear of Jonas Erickson's resi-
dence in Nymore. At the arrival of
the Nymore fire department, the
flames had gained such headway that
it was only by supreme effort that
the residence was not burned. No
alarm was received by the local de-
partment.
The loss incurred, including the
furniture packed in the house, and
the woodshed, which was also de-
stroyed, was reported to be about
$100 which was covered by insur-
ance.
