Organize for Protection.
For many years cars coming from

side and appropriated walnuts, ap
ples, grapes and have not failed to
kill the chickens and pigs of the
farmers, carrying them away in their
:. This is like the forays of the
incuntaineers m the middle ages
when they would make raids on the
Battlements of the low lands, carry
ing off all they could find.
The farmers of the community
north of Nehawka have grown tired
of supplying the table of the maur-
aders of Omaha with chickens, apples
grapes, and anything which the farm
ers have which the raiders can get
hold of.
An organization comprising thirty
five farmers was effected and a peti
tion asking that a special constable
be appointed to watch on Sundays
when the raids are generally .made
and apprehend the one who have been
and are guilty of the criminal acts.
It is time that such actions be stop-
ped and that the chickens and pigs
of the farmers as well as their fruit
be made safe.

THE ftre DEPARTMENT
The first line cf defense against
fire in any community is the fire de
partment. Its efficiency may deter
mine whether a blaze shall be quick
ly subdued, with a minimum loss, or
Whether it shall become a roaring,
destructive conflagration.
Our modern fire departments pre
nut an interesting contrast to those
of ancient times. It was not untiT
after the great London fire of 1666
that fire fighting was given serious
study and organized fire departments
created.
In this country the first public fire
fighting organizations of importance
were the volunteer "fire societies"
which combined preparedness for fire
with social diversions. The first suc
cessful steam pumping engine was
adopted and used by Cincinnati, Ohio,
Id 1853.
Nowadays the up-to-date fire de
partment is equipped with deluge
sets, turret pipes and water towersi
capable of projecting streams of wa
ter as high as eight stories above the
ground. Vast projrress has been
made in the perfection of our fire
fighting facilities, and they are still
in a process of evolution. Every
American community, large or small,
has found that a high-class fire fight
intx organization, well equipped, is
one of the best possible investments.

Washington, Sent. 29. A fresh
sensation in the record of the notor
ious Continental Trading Co., which
was so closely identiod with tfc
Teapot Dome oil stand il, may be
revealed through an inquiry under-
taKcn Aionuay oy tne senate cam
paign fund committee to determin -the
source of a C00 Liberty bond
sent into Nebraska to aid the can
didacy of a grocer namesake against
Senator George W. Norris, Vfeterati
insurgent leader.
Investigators for the committee
were ordered by Senator Nye R.),
North Dakota, chairman, to learn
whether a $500 bond used to help
Grocer Norris Came from the huge
supply of Liberty bonds purchased
by the Continental Trading Co.
more than a decade ago.
More than $250,000 of the Con
tinental bonds were traced previ
ously into the hands of Albert E.
Fall, former secretary of the in
terior, and into the coffers of the
Republican national committee whiic
Will H. Hays was Republican na
tional chairman.
Bobs Uv In Nebraska
While probing the c:.ndidacy of
Grocer Norris the senate committee
her.rd testimony accusing Victor Sey
mour, an atache of the Republican
senatorial campaign committee, of
financing his aoortlve battle against
Senator Norris.
One witness. A. Paul Jonnson, at
torney for the grocer, said Seymour
had used one or more $500 Liberty
bonds In ai ling the youth who bore
the senator's name.
Trace Bonds to Fall
A rrore mysterious concern than
this Continental company has never
been in the public eye. It first came
bd light during the prosecutipn of
the Teapot Dome conspiracy cases,
when government counsel discovered
deposit of $230. Of in Liberty bonds
v. . . n.Af( . . f x. ii A u ...... Im
iw i lit- i..itjt:c ui. i ail ai'u iitr rt'iijii-
law in a Pueblo (Colo. 1 bank. Later
these bonds were found to have been
purchased by the Continental Trad
ing Co., organized under Canadian
lawk
A series of inquiries revealed that
Harry F. Sinclair, Robert W. Stew
art. Hz try M. Blackmer and James
E. O'NeH organized th enncfrn. It
wha used to buy 33,&S3,33 bcrrels
of oil at $1.50 from C I. A. E. Hum
phrey. Texas oil man, thoil being
immediately sold to the Sinclair
Crude Oil Purchasing Co. and : the
Prairie Oil and Gas Co. at $1.7fi a
barrel. The profits were used to buy
$3,080,000 in Liberty bonds.
Traded "for Cash
Eventually, senate investigations
showed Stewart g-t ahtfttt $700,000
of these bonds. Blackmer abcut
$750,000 and Q-'Neil $SOO,000. Sin-
la r apparently got the rest, and it
was shown he had given $1S5,000 of
his share to Hay3 tor use in liqui
dating debts of the Republican per
sonal committee, incurred during the
Harding campaign for 1920.
A few years ago, another inquiry
revealed Hays had distributed some
of the Sinclair-Continental bonds
among rich Republicans, accepting
equal contributions to the Republican
"ampaign fund in return. John T.
Pratt, rich New Yorker, was given
?,".o.000 of the bonds, but returned
tfiem to Hays aft.r making a $50,
000 carh contribution.
Return Bonds
Inquiry showed Hays had offered
Continental bonds to former Seero-
tary Of War John W. Week. Secre
tary of the Treasury Andrew W.
Melon. William M. Butler, Republi
can national chairman at the time,
and T. Coleman Du Pont, senator
from Delaware. Mellon returned his
allotment though subscribing $30,-
00 0 in cash to the Republican de
ficiency. Butler also sent his lot
back.
But the denouncement cost Stew-
irt his post as chairman of the board
of the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana.
