Stepping tLe Bust.
The graveled portion of highway
No. 75. from the ending of the pave
ment to near where Frank Martin re
sides has been oiled, it requiring
about a car load of the crude cil to
treat the expanse of the road, the
cost being roughly estimated at ?25 0
per mile and as it has been used in
the east extensively and with very"j
satisfactory results the people here
think it will serve to keep the dust '
down and also keep the road in bet
ter condition. Let us hope. !

iately and it is fortunate for Mr.
True that the injury was no worse.
Still Undecided Game.
Last Sunday the hail team of Union
and the team from CHoe played at
the Union ball park and all went well
until something during what would
have been an ordinary closing of the
game when three strikes were made,
and missed by the catcher, a man on
third ran in and then the ball was
thrown to first and the runner put
out. Then came the disagreement of
the game, and still remains unde
cided. One s.ide claiming that the
man who came in was out and the
e ther claiming the man who was out
scored. So it remains, believe it or
not.

K-m Francisco Thomas Mooney
Monday mailed a new pardon peti
tion to Governor Young on the eve j
of a state supremo court hearing for
John MacDnnald. recanting witness
whose testimony twelve years ago
helped send Mooney and Warren K.
Hillings to prison for life for the
San Francisco If 10 preparedness day
borr-big. The plea was mailed a few
hours before supreme court justices
denied Mooney's request to attend
Tuor day's hearing.
Chief Justice II. Waste said the
court deemed "unnecessary" the
presence of either Mooney or Hil
lings, being concerned solely with
MacDonald's testimony and its bear
ing on the pardon application of
Eillir.gs.
MacDonald. located recently in
Baltimore, repudiated testimony he
gave during the bombing trials and
said he perjured himself, having been
coached by police to identify Mooney
anj Billings after their arrest.

Senator Harrison Avers Smoct Ought
Not Ee Taken Seriously; Cites
Eetaliationfl
Washington, July 27. Replying
to Senator Smoot's recent statement
that foreign communications on the
new tariff act should not be taken
seriously, Senator Harrison (dem.,
Miss.) today said the Utah repub
lican's '"hush-money argument is
neither ingenious nor logical."
"The facts are." Harrison said in a
statement issued through the demo
cratic national committee, 'that more
than 35 countries have filed protests
with us against the enactment of the
many increased rates in our tariff
law."
"Those increased rates," he added,
"written in most instances without
any thought .of equalizing the dif
ferencs in cost of production here and
abroad, but merely to satisfy the
avaricious appetite of certain special
interests in this country, have caused
not only an impairment of good re
lations with the people of many coun
tries but has actually influenced re
taliatory measures in the imposition
of high tariff rates and boycotts."
Precipitates Economic Chaos.
Harrison said, "No one factor has
been more influential in precipitat
ing economic chaos in so many busi
nesses in this country, than has the
agitation consideration and enact
ment of the Grundy-Smoot tariff
law."
"The farmers," he continued, "are
feeling it because they cannot sell
their exportable surplus abroad. The
low prices of wheat and cotton are il
lustrative. The automobile and re
lated industries as well as other in
dustries are finding themselves in the
same predicament. The tariff act has
caused such a restriction and curtail
ment of operations, a slowing down
in investments, as to create increased
unemployment and business depres
sion generally.
"Puts U. S. in Strait-Jacket."
"The assertions of Senator Smoot
and the republican national commit
tee to the contrary notwithstanding,
it is natural that these foreign coun- j
trios which have heretofore bought
of u our surplus products and added
to our general prosperity should pro- j
test when we write a tariff law thatj
is designed to prohibit our people,
from purchasing goods abroad. j
"Through enactment of the;
Grundy-Smoot tariff act we have j
plared ourselves in a strait-jacket.
If we are to breathe easy, we must
extricate ourselves from this instru
ment of economic torture." World

Appointed Judge of Supreme
Court by Governor Shtddon
Twice Elected by People
of Entire State
Again Elected by the First
Supreme Judicial District
LINCOLN DAILY ETAE "Prior to becoming a member of the Supreme
court, Judee Rose practiced law in the city, end at various times held the
offices of deputy state librarian, deputy reporter for the Supreme court,
editor of the Nebraska law reports, and assistant attorney general.
"His term as assistant rttorney peneral was marked by his vigorous
and successful efforts to enforce the law reducing railroad fares and an
other imposing taxes upon railroad properties. It was this work, chiefly,
that was responsible for his appointment by GoTemor Sheldon to the Su
preme court."
EVENING STATE JOULNAL "Judge Rose's knowledge of the law,
his duties as editor of judicii.1 opinions, his advice to executive officers and
legislative committees, whiie assistant attorney general, his experience as
judge, and his performance cf other public duties have made him familiar
with the constitution and the statutes and also with that part of the com
mon law which the legislature of Nebraska adopted in the early history of
the state.
"Some of Judge Rose's published opinions have attracted nationwide
attention and favorable comcient. His opinion deciding for the first tim
that a woman was elgihle to hold the ofHce of county treasurer was a
factor in the movement to accord women the right to their present status
as citizens, while his opinion changing the ancient and complex form of
an indictment for murder was accepted generally as a step forward to
ward adjusting judicial procedure to present conditions."
STERLING SUN "Judgt- W. B. Rose, who has so aby served the state
as a member of the Supreme court will soon file for re-election to that
position. Judge Rose is eoisidered one of the ablest members of that
body and we feel he should lie retained as a member of the court."
