SPANISH PAPER
IS IN TROUBLE
(By Associated Press.)

Madrid. via Paris. Jan. 4.-The Ger
manophile newspaper Nacion will be
prosecuted for printing a statement
from "a high diplomatic parsonage in
relation with the central powers. de-
claring that President Wilson's note
was a severe lesson for Spain.
Warnings have not been lacking"
said the statement, warnings against
getting involved in the contraband bus
mess which in the end will turn out to
be bad business. The lesson is all the
more significant when it is added to the
fact that the premier has placed him
self openly on the side of the allies, to
whom he Is bound by material consid-
Grafton. Spain is the only neutral
European country which allowed the
opportunity to pass to intervene as a
mediary in the great calamity affecting
the continent and obliged to make way
to the United States of America"
The article, which Is held to be in
sulting and libelous to Premier Roman
ones, has caused strong indignation in
both the liberal and conservative press.

Golfers: THE war is so horrible"
say those in whom pity is stronger
than sense. "that IL would be better to-
end it now. even II Germany profited-
thereby, than to have 1t go on. ruin
ing ali Europe. IL not all civilization.
We do not agree with this view, for
a denial OF human and national and
divine justice. and such 1t is, seems
to us ignorant Of facts and contempt
IDLE in spirit. Those who suffer most
by the continuance OF war-the free=
born citizens OF the French republic
the soldiers Of the great British
democracy, the uncrushec militiamen
of Belgium, the mothers who have
braveIy spared husbands and sons to
a cause greater than themselves:
they after all, are better qualified
than the neutral mind to decide as to
this wars ending. And they do NOT
mean to have it fought in vain or to :
let the sacrifice of their dead and :
manned and the burnt offering of the
villages of Flanders go down in hiss
tory as sufferings without atonement.
Let us wait for Belgium and Great
Britain and France to give the signal

NO DEMURRAGE
INCREASE IN MINI.
(By Associated Press.)

st. Paul, Jan. 3.-The state railroad
and warehouse commission will deny
the application of Minnesota railroads
for permission to increase demurrage
charger on all intrastate traffic.
An order to that effect is being pre-
pared in the commissions office.
A main finding was that the chief
difficulty Of shippers Is to obtain cars
to load for eastern points and In the
opinion of the commission, higher
demurrage charges will not relieve
this phase of the car shortage situa-
ton.

Red Wing, Mimi. Jan. A.-Nearly
100000 were spent in Red Wing in 1915
for building improvements. A look

that the Improvements totaled $44S, $780,
as compared with 100000 in 1915 and.
S245,424 in 1914. Had there not been q
delay in the construction OF the new
school buildings, the 1915 improvements
would have eQualed and probably ex-.
ceeded the building expenditures for
1914 and 1915 combined. The progress
made the past year is absolute proofa

SLIGHT DECREASE
IN net EARNINGS
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, Jan. A slight de-
crease in the railroads net operating
revenue, the first in more than two
years. was indicated by preliminary
statements made public here today by
the Interstate Commerce commits
sion.
The first fifty-five roads to report
showed a falling off of a little more
than $1,000,00O, but this is attributed
to the liberal policy OF expenditures
which accompanies an increase in
business. Officials believe the indicat-
ed drop for November will not alter
prospects for a billion-dollar year.
