Whether it is more camou- flage or not there will be no attention paid to it by this country unless Germany comes out and meets the demands of the United States, with which her allies are heartily in accord. There is nothing to believe that the United States, after her immense expense and sacrifice of her young manhood, is going to give Germany any leeway on a showdown. She has got to pay the bill and pay dearly. She will not be allowed to quit and go back into her shell without paying the penalty and pdying dearly. She shall not be allowed to ensconce her- self within her miserable confines after the outrages, rapine, wanton murder and nameless atrocities that she has committed and again continue uninterruptedly her same regime and her old time beliefs and actions. She must be crushed to earth and her arch murderers, who head the dastardly monarchly, for- ever deprived of any part in Germany’s affairs or the world’s. She will have to get rid of that Prussianism and the first thing she must do is to get back and her mailed clutch unloosened from the tiny, helpless countries., Germany has been able to master the small, weak and unprotected nations but when she goes up against the United States she yelps for mercy like a whipped cur. And that’s just what emperor Bill is. And then some. France would keep in the war if she was alone. It was France that saved the infant United States. The United States owes her support to France. She will get-it . England will support France to the last notch. Italy wouldn’t quit if she was whipped off the map. Its spirit would fight. The thing for the United States to do is to carry out its oft stated aims and forever eradicate the ideas of the crazed intellect and false idea of the Hun kaiser, that he can rule the universe. He can hit a fish with a board but when it comes down to the United States he is doomed for a cleaning and he knows it now, hence the baby act. And an ardent desire to save his contemptible carcass. The United States is not fooled nor misled one moment. It is “onto him” in every manner. He's got to quit right or get what’s coming to him. And if he doesn’t he is in for a clean- ing the likes of which the world never saw nor heard of. - —0 QUESTION. MARK: AFTER PRICES. (Duluth News Tribune.) It comes from Washinton that the increase of the price of food this year over that of last year is but 314 per cent. Only the few know what the actual increase of price has been to the producer if this is what is meant, but every householder knows what it has been on his table. It is a long way from the producer to the consumer and there are plenty of chances along this route to add to any in- crease paid to the producer. And if their official statement re- fers to the producing end, it is a long ways from true as to the consuming end. Every one who eats knows because he must pay and if the 314 per cent is true at one end, there is a lot of unholy gain along the way to the table. It is this and not what the pro- ducer gets that arouses popular ire. It is this that goes to the root of loyalty. Bemidji is campaigning against those who complain of high prices. Is this the way to get fair prices? Mr, Baruch _has told the retail dealers in men’s and women’s wear that, they must lower and stabilize their prices in conjunction with the wholesalers. What of cotton and cotton cloth that enters into nearly all, if not all, wearing materials? Why not begin here at the fountain head and not merely tickle the ears of folks? In foods every substitute climbs to the clouds. When sugar goes up all sweets follow. When butter hits the nothern g lights, all substitutes climb. When the use of flour is restricted, ! the substitutes that must be used, play tag with the stars. | When meats aroplane, fish slap: their tails in the face of the man in the moon. . Even the little things that are household necessities are now luxuries in price. So while that 814 per cent looks nice and sounds nice, it has no substance with those who pay the final price. ———0: The food administration will use all of its enforcement machinery against dealers who attempt to reap large profits from the American butter market. Butter, both storage and fresh, must be sold at prices not to exceed a stipulated margin over what the butter costs the dealer. ettt Yo We notice where a noted physician instructs his patients to turn six somersaults in the morning and six at night. Well, “one good turn deserves another,” wrote some one on a glad- some day. RIS SO POl o Storage holdings of poultry in Canada have decreased 94 per cent in the last year. The need for increasing the poultry industry in the United States is, therefore, apparent. — When it comes right down to starting a war, the kaiser is “there.” But when he comes to stopping one he has started it is a pretty tough job, IRy NI Well, we were right for once, anyway. We predicted the gaslesg Sundays would be with us about long as the weather was nice, —) . For years past there might have been some argument as to just how dry a bone is. We're going to find out pretty soon. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER AT THE THEATERS GRAND TONIGHT. Roy Stewart, the whirlwind west- ern-star, will appear with a new hero- ine, Marion Marvin, at the Grand the- ater on tonight in *'Cactus Crandall,” a western thriller of his own author- ship. - “@Cactus Crandall”.is a spirited and vivid picturizaton of those peculiar, colorful - types which populate the Mexican towns along the border. Harry Morey also appears as ‘‘The Grouch” in the short film he contrib- uted to aid the Liberty Loan, and a comedy is also on the program. GRAND TOMORROW. “Inside the Lines,” with Lewis 8. Stone, one of America’s best actors, and Marguerite Clayton in the cast, will be shown at the Grand theatre on Wednesday only, S ELKO TONIGHT. “The Girl in His House,” the Vita- graph Blue Ribbon feature which was shown in the Elko theatre last night and to appear again tonight, is a high class drama, with a powerful love interest, mystery cleverely sus- tained and in every respect measur- ing well up to the high standard of Blue Ribbon releases. Earle Wil- liams and Grace Darmond take the leading parts. ELKO TOMORROW. “The White Lie,” photodrama fea- turing = Bessie Barriscale is to be shown in the Elko theatre Wednes- day and Thursday. This picture was selected as opening program for Chi- cago’s mew million ' dollar . theatre which begins operations this montl}. REX AGAIN TONIGHT. It was an inténsely interested au- dience that saw Theda Bara in “The Clemenceau Case” at the Rex last evening, and she will appear again to- night in the last showing: of this adaption from the famous novel by Alexander Dumas, celebrated French writer. In this production Miss Bara is seen in her famous delineation of the vampire character in which she gain- ed her fame, often imitated but with- out success. ‘“The Clemenceau Case” has been interpretated on the legiti- mate stage by the greatest actresses ever before the American public, and in its screen form has lost nothing in its setting, while the lead role of Iza is realistically portrayed by Miss Bara. There will also be a good comedy. BIG: THREE DAYS RUN. Commencing with tomorrow’s matinee, that stupendous spéctacle “To Hell With the Kaiser” will be shown at the Rex. The film will be in Bemidji for three days, with mati- nees and night showings. “To Hell with the Kaiser” shows the way in which Wilhelm II plunged the world into war.. The fortunes of of American family are followed in the story, and in revenge for the ghastly fate of her little sister in a Belgian convent, Alice Monroe brings about the downfall and death of the Kaiser, with the aid of an American aviator. A beautiful love story runs through this powerful narrative, The scenes beggar description. The Kaiser's council-chamber " is shown, Belgian villages are burned and rav- DARTING, PIERCING SCIATIC PAINS | Give way before the pene- trating effects of Sloan’s 2 Liniment So do those rheumatic twinges and { the loin-aches of lumbago, thenerve. {nflammation of neuritis, the wry neck, / the joint wreach, the ligament l%fiifl. the muscle strain, and the throbbing The ease of applying, the quickness of relief, the positive results, the cleans !liness, and. the economy. of Sloan’s Liniment make it universally preferred.

In the realm of fancy, the Kaiser is shown going to his final destination, ‘“the hot place.” Through the co-operation of the United States war-department a fleet of 100 airplanes will be seen, and also the huge east of '2,000. i ‘‘To-Hell with the:Kaiser” is the greatest arraignment of Prussianism and the Hohenzollerns ever made.

Six thousand people attended the concert given by the Kelly Field Glee club, of which Kern Olson of this city is a member, at Austin, Tex. At Temple, in the same state, 8,000 were in attendance. The club is an organization of 30 picked voices, every man of them a soloist and a musician "of ability. Their repertoire runs from grand opera choruses to the popular “pep” and jazz songs. The Temple (Tex.) Evening Herald says in part: ‘‘A review of the per- sonnel of the club is very interesting in view of the widely distant places the men come from, the membership of 30 being made up of men from no less than 22 states of the Union, and from the extremes of the country. How thorough a melting pot the army is, is suggested in the incident of the club travel when a call was made for some of the men to double ToResist the Attack f the germs of many. diseases such as Grip, Malaria; ~ means for all of §% 2 us — fight or die. poh These germs are everywhere in the air we breathe.
