A BELATED BAND TRIBUTE

A BELATED BAND TRIBUTE
The unconfined Joy incident to the
Welcome Home day q few weeks ago
was accumulated and boosted along by
bands from Eveleth, Hibbing, Bull and
Cloquet. Those who looked through
both local daily papers failed to find
any favorable comment on the visit
ing bands. OF course the committee
paid the bands to be there, but Eve
leth, particularly, made an especially
creditable showing.
Eveleth has expended much time and
energy to secure an unusually prof.
cient band leader and instructor. In
one short year he has developed a
musical organization Of which a much
larger city well might be proud. The
members Of the band are beautifully
uniformed march well and, best Of all.
they play exceedingly well. They are
highly proficient in what musicians
call the "attack.' Many excellent
Judges have expressed the opinion that
the Eveleth band is tho best small
town band that they ever have heard.
Incidentally, the Virginia band was
clad in khaki uniform, being the Of
ficial band Of the Sixth infantry, Min
nesota Home Guard. Inasmuch as that
inscription was all that appeared on
the bands base drum, many people
though the band was from the regular
army and belonged to the Sixth q. s.
A. infantry. Those same people, when
the Eveleth organization marched
along, with their drum properly in
scribed, said: "Well, Eveleth's got the
band"
The Rip-saw wishes to express few
words, Of praise and appreciation Of
the visiting bands, late as the day may
be. Many citizens Of this peculiar
city by the fresh water sea sincerely
hope that all those bands, including
tho grand organization from Eveleth,
will come again and that, when they
do come, the local daily papers will
wake up enough to be both polite and
appreciative with few words Of rec
ognition and commentator.

NO OFFENSE INTENDED.

NO OFFENSE INTENDED.
Some Of our Grecian friends In Du.
iuth took exception to an article in
the previous issue Of the Rip-Saw con-
corning moral conditions in q number
Of Greek coffee houses located along
. couple Of blocks on Broadway, in
Superior.
These friends took the position that
the article in question was q reflec-
ton on all Greeks at the head Of the
lakes; that we should have printed the
names Of the disreputable men or given
the locations Of the disreputable
houses; that We should not have made
ancient Greeks, such as Diogenes,
Solon and Alexander the Great objects
Of humor; It also was charged that we
were melted to write the article on
Superior conditions and that we wished
30 bring reproach ON all Greeks in this
part Of the country.
We regret having displeased our
local Grecian friends but must insist
that they had no real cause for com.
plant. What We wrote concerned
Greeks In only two blocks, in another
city, in another state. Our facts, as
presented, have not been disputed and
they cannot be disputed.
The article, in its real application,
applied to the immoral firms In said
two blocks. When time and inclina-
ton warrant, we may publish the
names Of disreputable men and coffee
houses, but we must be the Judge as
70 all that.
We do believe that our friends were
uuduly sensitive and did not under
stand our article or our motives. AS
stated, while we regret having dis
turbed their feelings and sensibilities,
We have no apologies to make, for no
cffense was intended. Perhaps our
bumor is so dull and clumsy that some
" Vux x04010uC0O W04o AVS U4AN0ASSVVA
% we intended them.
Every tub must stand on its own
bottom. Any Greek who comes ia
America, POUNDS his home, becomes a
citizen and engages in q reputable
business has the same rights and
! stands Just as highly as anyone else.
There are many such Greeks and We
/ honor and respect them.
4 But . loafing, gambling, immoral
lswless Greek is just as bad as ar
American Of that class and has mucf
! Less right here. All such should be
/ come good citizens or else 60 bach
from whence they came.
Many Of our Grecian friends have
expressed this same opinion and none
! such have found any fault with thu
i article on Superior conditions. On thu
i ether hand, many local Greeks have
q praised It.

the peoples rights and the people two

Just SO sure as the sun shines and
water runs, tho great national tele-
phone monopoly soon will have the
city Of Duluth entirely at its mercy.
Che people have been soothsd with
soft words to the effect that the dual
telephone system will, before long, be
thing Of the past.
This dual telephone system has been
damnable in its double bleeding Of the
pocketbooks Of the patrons but. 80
long as Duluth possesses two separate
and distinct telephone systems, there

that never lets 60 until pried loose
and which takes the uttermost Earth

We all know and admit that the
local representatives of the Duluth
Telephone %. are princes Of good fel'
.ows. We even know that when The
nonresident officers Of the company
come to Duluth they hand out the big
gest and best Of cigars, shake handi
warmly and make the few who nSet

FOURTH IOWA TO HOLD SHOOT,
Rifle Shoot at Camp Dodge Will Re-
place State Eneampment.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines Oct. "a state rifle
shoot is to be held at Camp Dodge Oct.
20 to 25 for officers and men Of the
Fourtl regiment. Iowa National Guard.
Plans are now being perfected by Ad-
jutant General l.. G. Lasher. Two COM
manding officers from each company,
eight non commissioned officers ana
two privates Will be authorized to at
tend.
The cities of the state which have
ompanies in the Fourth regiment are
Sioux City two companies), Council
Bluffs. Cherokee, Fort Dodge, pcs
Moines, Mason City, Charles City,
Waterloo, Eagle Grove, Cedar Rapids
and Ottumwa. The headquarters and
the machine gun company are located

and sanitary detachment at Des
MOines.
Col. Ralph p. Howell, of Iowa City.
is in command of the regiment with
Lieut.. Col. Lloyd E. Ross. formerly OF
Red Oak. but now Of Des Moines, sec
ond In command. The officers will get
their pay and transportation while the
mcn will get pay, transportation and
subsistence.
The principal purpose of the shoot.
General L4asher explains, is to give
sufficient number Of officers and men
in each company practice in rifle work
so that they can go back to their COM
panies and be better equipped for in
| structing them.
It had been expected that national
guard encampment would be held this
year but this could not be arranged.
so the rifle shoot for the officers and
men representing each company in the
regiment will be held instead.
The rifle range at Camp Dodge will
| be used for the shoot inasmuch as there
| are no troops at the big cantonment
now using the range.
The transfer Of men now in the hos
pital at Fort Des Moines has begun
| and 1t is rumored that the fort Is again
to be occupied by regiment Of regu-
lars, possibly the Sixth. which regi-
| ment was at the fort some years ago.

"The best proof can give that Tan

like a brand new man. My pans have
all left me and can eat just anything
I want without the least trouble with
my stomach. I am feeling just fine
