Commons Discuss Again Mesopotamia Campaign Scandal London, July 19. Premier Asquith intimated in the House of Commons today that there was some basis for the adverse criticism of the conduct of the British expedition in Mesopo tamia. After the battle ot Uesinnon last November, he said. General Sir John Nixon, who was then in com mand, telegraphed tnat tne mcaicai arrangements were quite satisfactory. "Thousands died," one of the mem bers called. Later Mr. Asquith continued unof ficial reports were received which seemed to point a very different state of affairs and a commission was ap pointed to investigate the whole mat ter. In the Mesopotamia operations the premier continued, incidents had oc curred which had aroused doubt whether the best means had been adopted to bring about the ends in view. The premier's remarks were brought out by demands for pub lication of the papers in regard to the Mesopotamian and Dardanelles ex pedition. Mr. Asquith said the papers could not be published without assisting Great Britain's enemies and prejudic ing the operations now in progress in Mesopotamia. Sir Edward Carson, speaking of the Mesopotamian expeditions, said that thousands of people in this country thought it had been conducted with criminal negligence.

II ildness ? no less than the other is a marked characteristic of a light hearted Tirana." M T MOOR' ( 'Jdavana filltd ) u CIGAR - TEN - CENTS light hearted Sfavana An effort has been set on foot to secure (or Omaha the location of one of the twelve federal land banks, pro vided for by the rural credits bill, signed by the president on Monday. The Omaha Clearing House asso ciation has sent this telegram to Sen ators Norris and Hitchcock: "The associated banks oi Omaha desire the location of one of the twelve federal land banks in Omaha, feeling that our location in the heart of the agricultural district makes Omaha a logical point for such an in stitution, and we ask for your assist ance in this effort." The land bank board has not yet been named by the president, and un til it has been chosen no announce ments of location for the land loan banks can be made. The country is to be districted similarly to the ar rangement under which the federal reserve banks were located. Omaha's desirability as a business and banking center was given strong representation to the commission that had the matter of making inquiry as to the proper locations for the fed eral reserve banks. The experience of the hankers and others who went to Lincoln to meet with Mr. McAdoo and others on the commission was far from being the most pleasant epi sode in their lives. Missouri was given two of the federal reserve banks and Omaha waa attached to Kansas City, although the great bulk of the city's business is with Chicago. Omaha's location and the import ance of its business connections with the great agricultural empire of the west and northwest would seem to give this city peculiar advantages as headquarters for a farm loan bank.

Prof. Miukoff, said: "The most important question in which wc were interested was the problem of the Dardanelles. An agreement has been made between Russia and its allies whereby we are promised both sides of the straits. This agreement has not been pub lished, but we consider it our duty to make it known."
