The success of the inter-allied peace conference in Versailles is assured. It will be the greatest event in the annals of the universe. It will settle one of the most mazing problems that ever confronted human beings, and the questions are to be con- sidered will be by the most brilliant statesmen and military men in the world, including President Wlison. With the president, it is said, will go George Creel, head of the government bureau of misinformation, a bureau which spends over a million dollars in “bunc” propaganda and one of the staunchest friends of socialism and ardent supporters of Max Eastman. Creel will be attended, it is stated, with a large retinue of bureau payrollers at great cost to the Liberty Loan buyers of the nation. It was Creel who rewrote the story of a submarine sinking and when it was given out discovered later to have been a gorgeous mis-statement of the facts. What he will do at the conference in acting as the official news purveyor to the Amer- ican people is a matter of speculation. It would be one of the greatest farces of the war, and a grandstand play pure and simple. PG SRSSty, il 5B . I. W. W. PATRIOTS COMPARED TO BREWERS. We’re not in sympathy with the I. W. W. nor any of its ilk, but we are of the belief that the I. W. W. is composed of patriots compared with that pro-German-Amercain gang of brewers, who have, by the lavish expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollars, sought to control the government and wreck the industries of the country, because their owners and management object to the use of liquor by their hundreds of thousands of employes. It is indeed a great compliment to these manufacturers to thus be singled out for injury and for the reasons uncovered in the senate probe, We hope and trust that these manufacturers will thrive and prosper when the disloyal brewers and their nefarious plants and treasonable intrigue are down and out, and receive their just deserts. g s pen 5 WARFORD'S SPLENDID SERVICE TO RED CROSS. Terminating his office as president of the Red Cross chap- ter for the past year, Rev. L. P. Warford, pastor of the Presby- terian church, has filled the position in a most creditable manner. Literally “shoved at him,” Rev. Warford undertook the task in addition to his other duties and made good in every sense of the term, and it was regretfully learned that he would be unable to again serve. He proved himself a conscientous worker, of tireless energy, and he received the hearty co- operation of every member of the chapter. Capably aided by the splendid committees and their in- telligent direction, the past year of the Red Cross chapter has been unusually successful and its records substantiate the assertion. ——e——— VALUED CITIZEN JOINS “Y” WAR SERVICE. Bemidji lost another good citizen today, but only tempo- rary, when H. E. Reynolds boarded a train for New York to embark for “over there” in the interests of the Y. M, C. A. He expects to be away for at least two years and when he returns he hopes to see Bemidji far advanced in all things. Mr. Reynolds is a prominent realty dealer, has served Bemidji with his best efforts in all things and when the war broke was named federal food administrator of Beltrami county. He was also chosen secretary of the Commercial club and from a “buck” in the home guard when organized rose to a captaincy on the brigade staff of the state adjutant general. return. : - _.__.o-__._ Don’t let us be tempted into any extravagance by the thought that the war is over.

In lleu of the ususal allowance of sev- en cents a mile for expenses of army officers traveling by an airplane, the war department announced the other day, they will be allowed only four cents a mile. According to the ruling of the judge advocate general transpor- tation by alrplane is placed in the same class as travel by prairie schooner, dog sleds in Alaska and buffalo carts In the Philippines.

THE BEMIDJ1 DBJECTOR SOON CHANGED MIND Big - Brother’s Visit,. Mother’s Message and “Yellow Cur” Cause It. BOY IS NOW MAKING G00D Seems to Be More Afrald of Brother Than of Germans and It Is Pre. dicted He Will Make Good Fighting Man. . Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg, 8. O.~Among the Maryland draft men sent here some weeks ago was a chap from Baltimore who claimed exemp- ton from military service on the grour] that he was a consclentions ob- Jector of war. His name will not b made public, for it has developed that he belongs to a good family. He was placed in the casual detachment for ob- servation, and the machinery of the in- telligence department was put to work to learn somethinys as to his antece- dents, ' 2 A few days later ‘a tall,” grim-look- ing man appeared-in-camp and asked where the conscientious objector could be ‘found. He was directed to the casual detachment, and there - intro- doced himself to.the commanding of- ficer as a brother of the soldier in question and asked permission to have a talk with him. The permission was granted, and he went to his brother’s qnarters. Part of the conversation v'as overheard, and those who heard it ‘say it was heated, although one- sided. Brother Said Something. “You yellow cur,” exclalmed the visiting brother. “We are all ashamed of you at home, but you are golng to do a man's part in this war. Mother told me to come down here and make you withdraw that fool conscientious cbjector claim, and if you don’t do it I am golng to beat .you to death right here in this camp. What possessed you anyway?” There was a good deal more of the same kind, At the end of ‘about an hour the two brothers went before Major Cofin, the personnel officer. “Major,” said the visitor, “my brother wants to withdraw the affidavit about being a conscientious objector. Can he do 1t?” “Well,” replied Major Coffin, “it must be a voluntary act on his part.” Ang, turning to the:soldier, who had | ‘made the claim, he asked: “Do you want to do this voluntarily. Is it of your.own free will?” The soldier moistened his lips ‘and glanced at his brother, and replied: “Yes, sir, it is of my own free will, and I want to withdraw .it.” Is Now Making Good. Major Coffin found the affidavit and tore it up, and then issued an order transferring the soldler to an active regiment, and the soldier left. After he had gone the visitor turned to Major Coffin and sald: ‘“Major, I thank you. I had determined there would be no yellow curs in my family, and if that boy hadn’t withdrawn that eflidavit I would have bheaten him up right here. But I'm glad he did it of his own free will.” : The soldier who thought he was a conscientious objector has- been mak- Ing good ever since the visit .of his hrother. He seems, in fact, to be more afraid of his brother than of the Ger- my, 08, and those who have been watch- i"z him are of the opinion that he will make ‘as good a fighting man as any when the time comes to go over the top. Significant Hint. “Bill says you- insulted him when he started to tell yon of the number of enemies he had killed and captured at the front single handed.” “1 never sald a single word, but list | ened in silence.

To carry off the poisons that accumulate within the body and to ward off an attack of the influenza bacillus, take a good liver regulator to move the bowels. Such a one is made up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap, and is to be had at any drug store, and called “Pleasant Purga- tive Pellets.” If a bad cold develops, go to bed, wrap up well; drink freely of hot lemonade and take a hot mustard foot-bath. .Have the bedroom warm but ‘well ventilated. Obtain at the nearest drug store “Anuric Tablets” to flush the kidneys and conrol the pains and achee. Take an ‘Anuric” tablet every two hours, together with copious drinks of lemonade. If a true case of influenza, the food should be simple, such as broths, milk, buttermilk and ice-cream; but it is imyomt that food be given regu- larly in order to keep up patient’s strength and vitality. After the acute attack has passed, which.is generally from three to seven days, the system should be built up by the use of a good iron tomic, such as “Irontic” tablets, to be obtained at some drug stores, or that well known blod-maker and herbal tonic made from roots and barks of forest trees —sold everywhere as Dr. Perce's Medical Discovery. R e— DAILY PIONEER 7.000 DEMOBILIZED, Winnipeg, Man., Nov, 23.-—Seve thousand men at the Minto barrack and other points in the city of W nipeg garrisons have been demobil- ized, thus saving $350,000 a month to the government, although the month’s pay and $35 for clothing will be given each soldier. HOW RHEUMATISM BEGINS The excruciating agonies of rheu- matism are usually the result of fail- ure of the kidneys to expel poisons from the system. In a majority of cases rheumatism is an indication that uric acid has pervaded the sys- tem. If the irritation of these uric acid erystals is allowed to continue, incurable bladder or kidney disease! may result. Attend to it at once Don't resort to temporary relief. Th sick kidneys must be restored to health by the use of some sterling remedy which will prevent a return of the disease. Get some GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules immediately.
