War Correspondents Muzzled. With the greatest war in history to write about, there is little for the war correspondents to do except sit in stuffy offices and edit copy, or draw on their imaginations for de- tails to clothe bulletins and skeleton reportsi with the flesh and blood of actuality. The glory of the war cor- respondent has departed. It reached its zenith in our Spanish war, which seemed to be waged primarily for the purpose of providing brilliantly writ- ten newspaper dispatches. Then, for the first time, means of communica- tion were adequate and a friendly government was tolerant of khaki- clad journalists. In the Russo-Jap- anese war the correspondents were for the most part corralled in Tokio, and such big guns at Richard Hard- ing Davis were reducell to writing pretty stories about tea houses. In the last Balkan war commanders kept the newspaper men at a safe and in- glorious distance, though occasion- ally one broke through the lines for a brief splurge. Now, with new Aus- terlitzes and Sedans and Waterloos and Trafalgers to be fought, with a more tremendous battleground and a conflict of vaster forces and interests than have ever clamored for newspa- per exploitation, the hostile nations are fenced about with a censorship that bars correspondents, muzzles the native press and padlocks the wires save.for such matter as the adminis- tration sees fit to pass. The news, of course, will reach us—colored some- what by the medium through which it passes enroute. London, in gen- eral, will be the clearing house for the news, and will relay it and inter- pret # to America. But from the front we shall get mostly fragments, with only an occasional orderly nar- rative. We need not expect brilliant and comprehensive stories = written from personal observation of battles and manoeuvres, or personal inter- views with the leading actors in the drama. The stories that lead the day'st news, the vivid desecriptions that thiill the blood and awake the imagination, will be hammered out on the typewriters of the “rewrite men” in the mewspaper offices of London and New York. Seif-Help for the Railroads, The belief that railroad passes have disappeared, for the most part, along with rebates and stock-watering, was dissipated by the report of the I(n- terstate Commerce commission in the castern rates case. The commission found that the railroads issued last year trip passes totalling over $18,- 000,000, and that “deadhead” travel probably exceeded 10 per cent of the. whole pasisenger revenue. There was a big additional loss in the private cars so freely furnished to railroad officials and their families. The rate inercase permitted in the Central Freight association territory amount- ed to $15,000,000, which is much less than the Toads seem to have wasted in free transportation. With all due sympathy for the railroads, harassed as they have been by increasing wa- ges. higher cost of materials and + lessening receipts, not to mention ad- verse legislation, it must be admitted that the commission made out a pret- ‘deliver his. celebrated Tect Prince of Peace."—Ellsworth Record. i i e Wars ‘in Europe, . revolutions in Mexico, and Democrats in’ control of the United States.

Give him a chance to risk his life to save a fellow being and he will ring true in nine cases out of ten—but put the same man jbehind the stearing gear -of an .automobile and he will take just as big chances of killing some one through reckless driving.—Carlton County Vidette. —— It is most reassuring to those who have friends in Europe t6 have the United States government set the en- tire machinery of the diplomatic ser- vice at work in théir behalf. Should it become necessary, the government stands ready to send gold across the sea to accommodate its far-away citi- zens and army transports to bring them home. It makes one feel safe and proud. to be a citizen of Uncle Sam’s domain in times like these.— Red Wing Republican. CANADA ASSEMBLING FORGE GF 22,000 MEN Ottawa, Ont.,” Aug. 12.—Within a week Colonel Samuel Hughes, minis- ter of militia, intends to have most of the 22,000 men who will make up the Canadian contingent which will go to the war, on the way to Valcar- tier, Que., the mobilizing center. Three regiments already are on the way. They are the Royal Canadian Horse artillery, the Royal Canadian Dragoons and the Strathcona Horse. It has not been decided whether these units will go to the seat of war. Re: cruiting will close for the oversea contingent in twenty-four hours and from the list of names sent in to the militia department the 22,000 men required will be picked without delay and will be rushed to the mobilizing center. WRECKAGE FROM BRITISH WARSHIP San Francisco, Aug. 12.—Wreckage from a British man-of-war, bearing the appearance of having been in an explosion, was cast up by the early flood tide in the neighborhood of the South Shore lifesaving station, Two white wooden cabin doors were found, bearing on bright brass plates, one the legend ‘“navigating officer” and the other “gunner.” Captain Brombeck of the lifesaving station reported finding a large quan- tity of wreckage on the beach between the lifésaving station and Ocean bou- levard. In the wreckage are several doors painted white and highly varnished, windows with heavy shutters, also white, and a quantity of planking. REBELS AT OUTSKIRTS OF MEXICAN- CAPITAL Mexico City, Aug. 12.—The depar- ture of President Carbajal for Vera Cruz, the dissolution'of congress and the arrival on the outskirts of the capital of the Constitutional forces of General Obregon, who are expected to enter the city in orderly manner, are imminent developments. Americans and other nationals here feel assured that the Constitutional- ists’ entrance will be without dis- order, duplicating in many respects the —entrance of Francisco Madero four years. ago. > ARE YOUR KIDNEYS WELL? Many Bemidji People Know. The Im- portance of Healthy Kidneys. The kidneys filter the blood. They work night and day. Well kidneys remove impurities. Weak kidneys allow impurities to multiply. No kidney iii should be neglected. ty good case in support of the charge that many railroad practices are needlessly wasteful. Such rate in- creases as have been granted are doubtless deserved. But instead of complaining at getting only half a loaf when they hoped for a whole one, the railroads might well take to heart the sermon preached by the commis- sioners. If they can get the other half by cutting off free transporta- tion and enforecing greater economy and efficiency in freight car move- ments, coal consumption, shop work, ete., the benefits will be a solid, per- manent source of prosperity instead of a temporary crutch.
