HEARING AT SLEEPY EYE

Train Service to Be Discussed Be-
fore state r. and w. c..
On Thursday. February s, there
will be a hearing at Sleepy Eye be-
fore the board of railway commission
ers with regard to changing the train
service on the local road and the
branches. 1t seems that travelling
men in general have been up in arms
against the present schedule of train
service and they want the present
service abolished and the old service
re established. 1t is said the people
in the towns up the Marshall branch
want a change on that line. AS far as
we hear the present service is fairly
satisfactory to Sleepy Eye.

GOVERNMENT and PEOPLE.
RUSSIAN AND GERMAN SOCIAL DEMOCRATIC
PARTIES GAINING INFLUENCE,
People of Both Nations for Peace.

A great deal of what is hap
pening in Europe to-day is
shrowded behind the impenetr-
able secrecy of governmental
censorship. Out Of the seeth-
ing turmoil of dynastic changes,
social revolutions and indicated
democratic reforms, abrupt
changes are certain to come
with little or no warning, so
far as we are concerned. The in
dications, however, seem to
favor a change from military
to diplomatic operations. A pro-
mise Of peace is in the air.
The Russian developments Of
the past few weeks appear to
tend toward a peace without
victory and without conquest.
The Provisional Government in
its entirety has officially exclud-
ed from any peace terms the
conquest of Constantinople. 1t
has specifically stated only the
demand for a free Poland, re-
constructed to include all parts
