State Railroad and Warehouse
Commission to Conduct a
Hearing Here Thursday
BEMIDJI CITIZENS ARE
REQUESTED TO ATTEND
Present Service to Kelliher in
Deplorable Condition;
Quick Remedy Asked -

The citizens of Kelliher are up in
arms about the apparent abandon
ment Of train service to that hustling
little city of Beltrami county and
as result the Railroad and Ware
house Commission has filed hear
ing to be held in Bemidji Thursday
evening at 700 o'clock.
The meeting will open at the
Markham hotel. at the above hour
and then adjourn to the Civic and
Commerce association rooms so that 4
large delegation from that city and
a much larger one from Bemidji can
appear to give the facts which tho
commission desires. .. 90.
County Commissioner William Len
non and William Skrief of that city
are doing their utmost to secure
regular train service for the village
of Kelliher ond other stations on the
Funkley-Keliher line. -"
''The matter was first taken up
with W. H. Gemmel Of the NJ. & l."
said Mr.. Lennon, but we did not
seem to get anywhere, so we are
taking the mater up with the rail-
road and warehouse commission. X
"There are from 5000. to $500
people effected in our district and we
feel that we have waited long enough
The last passenger train that pulled
into Kelliher was on July Gath and
since that time we nave had but one
freight train week. This was run in
to, the yards on Saturday night,
freight cars side tracked and the
train pulled right out again. Lately
we have been getting two trains q
week. ; ': ~
eve have been quite patient and
were willing to wait some, owing to
the strike and the coal shortage, but
we can't stand for what might come
and that is abandoning the train
service altogether, which was infer
red by officials"
The village of Kelliher is one Of
the hustling, growing cities Of this
county and while the lumber business
was going at full blast it was neces-
sary to run daily freights and daily
passenger trains into that city. -.
The Kelliher bushes men have
invited the business men Of Bemidji
and other neighboring towns to at
tend the hearing Thursday evening.
They state they want only a fair deal
and desire that this city know all the
facts regarding the service in that
community. =, 4

rance has been engaged to represent
the citizens of Kelliher at the hear
ing and will leave no stone unturned
in order to convince members - OF
the commission that Kelliher should
have daily passenger service.

Queer Carooee.

The oldest cargo recorded was prob.
ably that carried lately by British
steamer bound for Morocco.
1t consisted Of some two million
gallons of water. To Gerry that
amount Of water distance Of $4,000
miles sounds too absurd, but the mat.
ter becomes clearer when we are told
that the water was specially purified
drinking water for the use Of the
Spanish troops fighting the rebels in
Morocco.
Another cargo sent to Spain consist
cd of an immense quantity of bnnk
notes. There were several millions
of these, most of them of small value.
1t Is testimonial to British printing
that Spain gave such AN order, and
is due to the fact thar notes printed

FIRST LAW is HOSPITALITY
Arabs VIII Quarrel over the Privilege
OF Entertaining a viaItee---Strlsa
Rule eq Etiquette.

Although most Arabs are Bed0uins
or nomads, many Of this ancient rnce
live In towns. To the traveller unused
to the swaying and almost NAL do
mer" inducing motion OF the camel
for this 10 the mode OF locomotion In
Arabio--it is great relief to come
to one OF these dingy yet picturesque
towns.
With a sigh of relief the chre-
worn and dust-covered voyager crosses
the dry moat and passes through the
city walls. ALI Arabian towns have
walls and turrets. The traveller won
ders what the great standpipe Is, ris-
Ing high above the houses, and IL by
chance there might be some industry
connected with it. But on inquiring
he finds that 1t Is the watch tower-a
remnant Of the Middle ages when only
spears and lances were used in war
fure. To-day the tower would fall
quickly IL 1t were hit by the shell from
Il fvG-pound gun
To visit In one OF the Arabian
houses is indeed great pleasure, for
the Arabs are most hospitable and
treut their guests royalty, asserts
Temple Manning In the Cleveland
rlnin Dealer. In fact, the whole town
will squabble over the privilege OF en-
tertalning Il visitor.
No mention of the length Of Wis
TORS stay or where he is going is nl-
ludrd to-thts would be the height OF
i'll manners For this handsome and
bold race are gallant and courteous
to the last degree, and some of their
forms of conduct are difficult for the
Westerner to adopt
Although 1t is fascinating to live as
guest Of an Arabian family, 1t is
really difficult, and one must be on
his guard II he cares to be invited
again.
The main room in every Arabian
house Is the coffee room. Here s
where the men meet ut all hours and
tnlk and drink the Arabian coffee,
which is SO strong that 1t is apt to
keep the guest awake nll night.
There is no furnishing in the room
save rugs. On these beautiful rugs
one sits, and is very careful not to let
his foot stick out In front Of him. For
In m Arabian house feet are to be
used, but never seen.
If you should visit in this land Of
"A Thousand and One Nights" be
sure to tuck your feet under you, no
matter how uncomfortable, because If
YOU don't you will be considered bad
hammered and will not be asked to

Slave.

The word "slave," In the sense In
which 1t was used in America until
the proclamation by President Lin.
coin that abolished it, was originally
the name Of, great branch of the hu
man race. THAT branch was the Slavs,
among whom the Russians, the Poles
and the Czechs are numbered.
In the early wars between the Ger
mans and the Slavs. the Slavic cap
tives were used much as the negroes
were used in parts Of America prior
TO the Civii war. Hence bondman
was designated as "Slav" or slave by
the Germanic, eonquerOrs.
BY way or an Offset to this con.
temptible designation Of the Slav as
"slaves," It is only fair to point out
that the Slavs trace the derivation of
their race name to "slava, or glory

Mr.. Lowe Writes Again
or The Advertiser:

Your answer &c mine on the luxury
tax is very far fetched. l am not
against people making soft drinks and
drinking it if they want it; neither
smoking cigarettes, cigars or chewing
tobacco or chewing gum. But 1 still
think all luXures ought to be taxed
and lift the burden OF taxes off OF
lands. This luxury tax on each
bottle of soft drinks would only
amount to about one cent and a yer,
small amount would be put On other
silly stuff that Is no benefit to life. as
food or anything else, only habit
that is unhealthful to the body. If th>
tax Is out On people will smoke and
chew all the same.
The same kick was made away
key and raised a rebellion in Pcnnsyl-
vania and the president had to send
troops there to out 1t down. Yes,
will say again, The farmers who
make your bread, meat, lard, chickens,
eggs, milk and butter, also the cotton
tnat clothes you, the lands that furnish
this life-giying nourishment ought
not to be taxed at all" For, Mr.. Edi-
tor, you know full we'll you could not
survive many days without this nour-
ishment for your body. Tell me please,
are these drinks or cigarettes any
nourishment to the body of many, wo-
man or child? Yes, say again, Put
the tax on luXurles and the tax on it
will be so small thing that it will
never. be noticed, and the indus
tries will go on the same and
laborers will get the same Jobs"
But the man that don't use it
Will not have it to pay. Whis-
