Today Some Policies, of Course. McAdoo, Coolidge, Smith. Rryan “lie Saith, Ha liar The People's Inde pendence. ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ This week comes the republican convention, to tell you who will run for vice president with Coolidge. The president is said to favor Dr. .Burton, head of the University of Michigan. It would be a good choice. Dr. Burton would preside well in the senate, and be a good, strong, plain, first-class American in the White House, should anything happen to Mr. Coolidge, which heaven forbid. The democratic convention, next in order, will be more exciting and uncertain. Cool politicians, who al ways have four or five “first choices,” in order to land safely, be lieve that McAdoo is the leading candidate, now. He has a strong influence with labor—based on the fact that he treated men fairly as government manager of railroads. He has some earnest Wall street opponents, who say he should have thought more about their dividends, less about workmen’s wages, but you cannot please everybody. If President Coolidge had an a? r, solute vote in the democratic con vention, he would say “Don’t name McAdoo.” Coolidge knows Mc Adoo’s power with workers, especi ally with the normally republican raijroad man, a power that would give McAdoo hundreds of thousands of republican votes. Also McAdoo has a name that the people know, and that counts. However, Ralston of Indiana sits in the shadow, with ingenius Tom Taggart in his corner, a most im pressive dark horse. “Al” Smith has back of him some of the clever est-political managers in the country including the powerful Tammany Hajl organization. And there is the south which thinks it ought to have something to say. McAdoo is a southerner by birth, California by residence. He might suit the south. But again, there is William J. Bryan, don’t forget that war horse. “He saith among the trumpets Ho, Ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting." Bryan will be heard from now, as of yore “He rejoiceth in his strength,” and also “He mocketh at fear, and is not afrighted.” Bryan, best advertisement that Florida ever had, except her climate, fertility and fine people, will be heard from. And, how do you know that he wont present Josephus Daniels as “The strong and Honest man you want, with a good record. The man ^ from whom no grafter got a dollar, r -%* in the war or afterward. It’s going to be an interesting , campaign. Barring a surprise from La Follette, or an unprecedented rush of “conservative labor” to McAdoo, it looks like Coolidge, now. The small rich crowd wants things to run undisturbed. The big crowd wants continued high wages. Those things are represented in the city and suburban.mind by Coolidge I and Mellon, the latter balances money so nicely, between inflation ( and stringency. I Federal District Judges Carpenter and Wilkerson set aside President Coolidge’s parden of Phillip Gross man, in Chicago, denying the presi dent’s power in civil cases, and add, “To allow such power to the execu tive is to strike a death blow at the ■ independence of the judiciary.” That’s a good saying and cour ageous. All federal judges depend on the president for appointment and promotion. It’s also a saying for the people to remember in case they happen, some day, to get rulers that repre sent them, and nobody else. At present our system “Allows such power to the judiciary as to endanger the independence of the people.” You see it, when the casting of one single appointed su preme court vote, in the majority, has power to overrule an elected ^ congress. And when congress is |n > , ruled by a bare majority, in a court beyond the people’s control, that is ! not democracy. (Copyrlxht. H24 ) Third Planting of Corn Necessitated by Heavy Rains J m> Platte County Fields Washed Out After Second Planting -—Oats Late But Will Make Good Crop. Columbus, Neb., June 9.—Many farmers living on hillsides and low land in Platte county will be com pelled to plant their corn for the third time this year, following the heavy rains of Saturday and Sunday, which washed the ground. The first planting of corn failed to germinate because of cold and drouth. The second was made two or three weeks ago. In spite of the heavy rains the water failed to penetrate the soli to any appreciable depth and conse quently did very little good. Com Rois in Ground. Norfolk, Neb., June 9.—Corn plant ing, corn replanting and corn cultivat ing are in piTgress in this section of Nebraska today. The cold, wet weath er has caused considerable corn to rot in the fields. It has been in the ground in a dormant condition for some time and the worms have con sumed a large portion of it. As a result whole fields, some of them 160 to 200-acre patches, are being replant ed at this time. In some places where replanting is being done, just across the fence farmers are starting the battle against weeds by cultivating corn which is out of the ground and which looks healthy. On the other hand, some farmers are Just In the midst of their corn planting activ ities. With this condition in the corn fields, the farmer Is a pretty busy man and rush work w-111 continue for another week, when most of the corn In the Norfolk vicinity Is expected to be out of the ground and ready for cultivation. Oats is about three weeks late, but will make a good crop. Early oats is unusually late. Alfalfa will make a great crop. New alfalfa has been sown liberally in this part of the state. Replanting in Progress. Aurora, Neb., June 9.—Hundreds of acres of corn have been or will be re planted In Hamilton county. The first planting was made by the farm ers before the two weeks of rain. Most of them planted the corn deep to get It Into the moist ground. Then came the cold weather and rain and the corn either rotted in the ground or else started to grow and was cut off by the cut worms. All of the pres ent week has witnessed farmers re planting and they have not finished the Job yet. Only a late fall like that of a year ago can prevent a great deal of soft corn. Polk Crops in Good Condition. Osceola, Neb., June 9.—Due to re cent rains, Polk county crops are In good condition for the summer sea son. Wheat and oats are flourishing. The corn Is up all over the county and the first cultivation Is in prog ress. There Is some replanting of corn. A few days of warm weather gave the corn the necessary start and farmers generally are expecting bumper crops. Drouth Broken at Albion. Albion, Neb., June 9.—In the severe electrical storm Friday night 1.62 inches of rain fell. This will relieve the drouth condition which lias pre vailed for the past few weeks. \ I IVIRTtst: MKVf If Lemons Bleach the Skin White j The only harm lees way to bleach the skin white is to mix the Juice of two lemons with three ounces of Orchard White, which snr drug gist will supply for a few cents.

STATE DOCTORS BAR ALL ALIENS Allen physicians are berred from taking an examination to practice In Nebraska by a resolution adopted Sunday night by the state hoard of medical examiners in Omaha. Lack of reciprocity between Ameri can and foreign medical schools is re sponsible for the resolution, accord ing to Dr. J. D. Case, exofflcio secre tary. The resolution provides that no doctor who has not taken out his first citizenship papers or who is un able to pass an examination in the English language will be admitted to the examinations.

[Traffic* Men Ask Four Arterial Highways Here Chamber Committee ami Auto Club to Request City Council to Restrict Downtown Streets. Four arterial highway*, which will he recommended to the city council, were outlined at a meeting of the safety traffic committee of the Omaha Chamber of Commerce and the Oma ha Auto club at the Fontenelle hotel Monday noon. These highway* are: Twentieth street, from Leaven worth to Florence boulevard. Dodge street west of Twenty fourth street. Harney street from Twenty-fourth to Thirty-sixth street. Leavenworth street west of Twen ty-fourth street. F. L. Nesbit suggested to Police Commissioner Henry W. Dunn, who was present, that motorist* making the right turn on downtown Inter sections lie compelled to wait at the crossing until the traffic officer gave the signal to cross the street. Dunn declared that he would “take the matter up immediately.” Nesbit also suggested that the city council he asked to define the con gested district of the city a* bounded by Leavenworth street on the south, Twenty-fourth street on the west, Cuming street on the north and the river on the east. Vicor B. Smith, chairman of the chamber traffic committee, suggested that the recommendation to the city council provide that the ordinance concerning arterial highways should not go Into effect before signs were placed on all intersections of arterial highways, labeling the road and com manding autolsts to stop. Sam Houser recommended that the council pass an ordinance providing for parallel parking on all arterial highways and on streets outside the congested district of the city specified by police. The traffic committee was the guest of the Omaha Auto club.

Adele Garrison “My Husband’s Love” V___/ The Plan Madge Swiftly Made About the. Stolen Furs. Mamie sprang toward me and clutched my arm a» I called the Dur kee telephone number at Marvin. "What are you doing?" ehe shrill ed. “I told you everything. Why do you call the police?" "Be quiet,” I commanded eternly. "I am not calling the police, but I shall," I amended, with a awlft sec ond thought, “if you give me any more trouble. You must do exactly as I tell you until I get these furs back where they belong.” She gulped a frightened sob back and spoke tremulously: “I won’t say anything more, and I will do just as you say.” "See that you do!" I retorted, curt ly, for I knew that there muat be no iota of softening wtth Mamie’s type. That she was watching me with cat like Intentness, ready to take advan tage of any unguarded moment of mine, I well knew, and governed my behavior accordingly. Bella's voice, tralnante and sweet, came Ultlngly: "Yes. Tills Is Mrs. Durkee. Who is this? Oh, Madge! You darling! How glad I am to hear your voice. And how are you all down there?" Bella lias lost much of her delic ious southern drawl during her long northern sojourn, but she still makes "yoh-Bll” a phonetic delight, and her pretty cordial manner has kept all of Its charm. “Do You Want Me?" “We are all very well, thank you,” I answered. “But that Isn't Interest ing. How are yob?” She laughed a bit consciously. “Couldn't be better,”- she said blithely, and I rejolnced at the care free note In her voice. Evidently the exchange of com panionship, from that of a conva lescent, hut querulous, mother-in-law to that of a solicitous, cheery sister, had been most beneficial to my lit tle friend, "I am so glad,” I returned sincere ly, and then added quickly: "Is Katherine there?” "Yes, but don’t tell me you want her!" she exclaimed with genuine alarm In her voice. “Were having such good times together. “I won’t keep her long.” I prom ised evasively, and with a half laugh lng, half-exasperated little exolama tlon, she called Katherine to the tele phone. “What Is It, Madge?” Katherine wasted no words in greeting. “Do you want me for anything?"

And can you stay here one day, pos sibly longer?” "Of course, to both questions, she returned with comforting briskness, "That’s the train leaving here In about an hour. I’ll make It. Any thing else?” I understood. She would have scant time for her preparations, and I took her cue with alacrity. "Not a thing," 1 said. "Please call Leila again.” "I knew it,” Leila said petulantly, when she came to the 'phone again. "You're a nuisance, Madge, with a big N. We were going to play Mah jong tonight.

"Never mind.” I soothed. “If 5'ou're a good little girl I'll carry you all off to the farm one of these days, and we'll fight the ancient and honorable game all over the place.” "Well,” she drawled doubtfully. "that might square It,” and then her voice sounded another note: "You know, I’m not serious, Madge," she said contritely. "I don’t want to be selfish about Katherine's coming to you. I hope there's noth ing the matter." There was quick anxiety in her voice. Keila is the type of feminine mind which cannot help worrying over everything, and I sounded a quick note of reassurance. “Nothing to worry about,” I said mendaciously, "and remember I shall summon you to the farm very soon. It will be a command, not an Invitation, and there will be severe penalties for refusal." "You have an enlarged photograph of our refusing to come to the farm, haven't you?" Bhe scoffed, and then 1 managed a courteous farewell, for L,ella would extend a telephone com munication indefinitely, and turned to Mamie. "Go home and tell your mother I need you for the rest of the day and tomorrow,” I said curtly. "Get ready to go to New York and spend the night there. You must be back here In an hour, and not go home again until I give you permission." There was rebellion in her eyea, but I beat them down with a steady stare, I knew that I must not lose my domination of her until I had no further use for her aid, and a min ute later, with a long-drawn breath, she said submissively: ! “All right. I'll go and tell my mother." *Hmerican Beauty" WOCTVSKi XROH 1 ___ fn I t I | If you buy the right electric j iron you probably will have to ' buy only once in a lifetime, so it will be cheaper to pay a trifle more at first and get an “American Beauty" Sold by Daaltrt and Elactrieal Companies Ererywhere Manufactured by American Electrical Heater Company, DETROIT Oldest and Largest Exclusive Makars.
