SHIPPERS' CONVENTION T0 BE HELD TOMORROW Shippers of Cordwood and Other Tim- ber Products to Discuss Rates, in Bemidji. Tomorrow is the day set for the holding of the meeting of the ship- pers of cordwood and other timber products who are doing businsss along the line of the M. & I. and the G. N. Railways in this section, and who will discuss ways and means for securing from the railway com- panies a more liberal rate for the shipping of these products, and more especially the securing of a joint M. & I.-G. N. rate, so that the timber and cordwood business may be conducted with a fair profit. It is claimed by Charles’' S. Car- ter of Hines that the rate now charged for shipping a car of cord- wood is more than that charged for a car of logs, and the rate is very much higher; and Mr, Carter also complains that the rates charged for shipping products from M. & I. points to points on the G. N. are so high as to be almost pro- hibitive, Secretary Jester, of the Bemidji Commercial club, has sent invita- tions to all shippers of cordwood and other timber products to meet here tomorrow, and it is expected that the meeting will be an impor- tant one and that there will be quite a number of shippers in attendance.

The success of this great sale has been a great benefit to the public in general, for it is very seldom that so large a stock of high-class mer- chandise is so ruthlessly slaughtered as to prices offered for sale. Now, the Emporium announces that the sale will be discontinued in four days; and ample notice of the termination of the record-breaking bargain offering is made so that all who desire to lay in supplies of the class of goods handled by the Emporium will be given a chance to do so. The Berman Emporium is well pleased with the patronage accorded by the public during this sale, and the hope is extended that all will be able tosupply their wants during the remaining four days of the sale. Rey. Hulett Preaches Powerful Ser- mon. [Contributed.] “Weighed in the Balances” was Mr. Hulett’s subject last night, at the Baptist church. After picturing out that old-time scene of the drunken King Belshaz- zar and 1000 of his lords, the speaker proceeded with a powerful address, which undoubtedly lefta deep impression on those present. Emphasizing very strongly morality without Christ could not save, that unless we came to Jesus Christ and believed in Him to the salvation of the soul our baptism, confirmation, and church, membership could not save us, and if we were trusting in these things for salvation it would set covers, drawers, etc., etc., means a saving of broideries in Bemidji ings, Insertions, broideries, Januar Embroideries We boast of showing the largest and finest line of Em-~ Flouncings, Corset Cover Em= Medallions, These we are going to place on sale at a 20 per cent Dis- count during this White Sale skitts, all well made and handsomely trimmed, at a reduction which 20c on Every Dollar Talle kerchiefs only Wash Rags .. $1.25 at.. in Edg- Bands, etc. Handsome Patterns in very desirable Linens at 20 per cent Discount During White Sale.

T0 VOIGE BUSINESS 'NEEDS OF NATION National Board of Trade Gon- venes at Washington, be- ‘Washington, Jan. 26.—Sixty cham- bers of commerce and boards of trade, voicing the business needs of the na- tion from as many cities, were repre- sented in the fortieth annual meeting of the National Board of Trade, which began its sessions here. Concerted action on the live issues of-the day will be taken and expres- sions of the national body indicative of the sentiment of business interests will be given in the form of resolu- tions proposing some legislation, favor- ing some new proposed laws and ask- ing for the repeal of some in force. Twelve of the largest bodies come with strong res lutions calling un- equivocally for a ship subsidy to pro- mote an American merchant marine. Twelve others call. for a forward march on harbor and river improve- ments. Others, while divided some- what in opinion of methods, stand for conservation of the natural resources of forests, water powers and miner- als. Postal reform is strongly urged, some opposing a parcels post, others in favor of one with limited extent; some organizations call for a readjust- ment of the rates of postage and pos- tal savings banks are.endorsed with some conditions. Resolutions favor- ing the creation of a central bank will be offered and currency reform will be urged. For First Time in a Year. New York, Jan. 26.—John D.

Tokio, Jan. 26.—While the press treats with an unusual degree of reser- vation the government's rejection of the Knox plan for the neutralization of the Manchurian railways there is increasing - evidence of an undercur- rent of resentment of the American state department’s intervention in the Far Eastern situation. Not only do the Japanese people be- lieve Secretary Knox went beyond his province in the recent proposal, but the chargz is now frequently heard that the proposal was made for the scle purpose of embarrassing Japan ond forcing her to “show her hand” in Manchuria. The proposal was not made, Japa- nese statesmen declare in their pri- vate conversation, with any idea of its acceptance. T0 CROSS GCEAN IN BALLOON Planned That Airship Will Leave Ber- lin on May 15.
