Dear Brother and Sister Patrons:
The time now is when every man
or woman Interested in the welfare
OF thelr country should demand that
TINS war 81 democracy should be PAD
for' as Ilneh as possible, by the
money that is beng made out OF war
profits. Last year several billions of
special profits were laid aside. This
year more billions and the entire
cost OF the war, almost, is placed up
on the backs. OF the producers of the
land, until their burdens are almost
unbearable-and wealth untold is
being made out of war profits.
We have no moral right to sad
die upon the next generation a huge
debt that profiteers may gloat over
their gains in this.
Buy Liberty Bonds when pos
sible and when needed, but larger
war-profit taxes should be paid so a
smaller amount of Liberty Bonds
VIII De needed. DO your part by
wiling 10 your congressman at

curtailed by the new order, as they

The safety commissions order cuts

Brewers in southern Minnesota
will not complain over the order, ac-
cording9t ito Fred Schuster of Roch-

per cent Of their trade, he said. "Un-

new order an effective way to cut
off the illegitimate dealer, the boot

cries have confined their sales, so
far, as possible by careful vigil, to
the ultimate consumer, but whisky
jobbers have been unable to control
their sales in some places"

The tie will be played on neutral
ground and Bemidji was selected for
the scene Of the scramble. There
will be rooters for each Of the teams
and there's certain to be some "tall'
coaching from the enthusiasts.
But the real game Of interest to
Bemidji will be that between Bemidji

CARDS IDENTIFY THOSE
WHO TRIED TO SERVE

Corporal Clarence Foucault was
making the rejected volunteers hap
py this morning by the presentation
of a volunteer card reading:
II have tried to enlist as volun-
teer. Have you?"
The card certifies also that the
bearer was rejected for physical rea-
sons and is signed by the recruiting
officer.
The young men are "fashing'
these cards on their friends, espec-
tally those eligible to go, and wish
to make, known the fact that they.
too, might be able to secure such
card by Offering to serve. The boys
realize the fact that they have done
their Bit" even though they were
not accepted.
The idea is original with Corporal
Foucault, who made the suggestion
to the recruiting committee, which
Immediately co-operated.

"'Acamemically speaking, of Presi-

president Wilson accepts In prin-

but refuses to go :as far as the right
of subjects of the nationalities every

tion not excluding complete inde-
pendence If desired. ".9
"Manifestly, President Wilson ad-
dressed himself primarily to Aus
tria- Hungary, hoping to divorce the
dual monarchy from the Central al
lance. 's'.--
"We believe If President Wilson
and Premier George had really
sought quick peace, through the la
test formulas, they would have
shown it by consenting to join! the
general peace negotiations. Only by
such participation could they have
knocked from the hands of the Ger
man government the main weapon
by which it maintains internal dis
cipline.
"The refusal, allowed the German
government to show its Workmen
that America, France and England
desire Germany and, therefore, Ger
many must fight to the end.
+ ANY attempt to renew the war
after negotiations would undoubted-
ly result in the overthrow Of all gov

fought shy of our invitation to Join
