The gossip may be listened to, but
be frets no thanks, Is not loved
"while she lives nor mourned when
he la dead. But let It not be for
gotten that men ran gossip Just as
tuurn as women, and the above de
scription fits Just as accurately In
their case.
That accident In Vienna when a
biplane rammed an air ship with
moat traplc results must be given
the spectators a realistic Idea of
"what aerial warfare would mean.
The horrlbleness of the whole thing
wtmld. one might think, cause every
beholder to have a hatred of war
that nothing could eradicate.
Someone has said, "Manhood first,
and then gentleness." Very true,
but why cannot the two always go
together? Some folks think, appar
ently, that roughness of Banner and
speech are essential to manhood, just
at at one time It used to be thought
that the soldier who could pour out
the longest stream of profanity was
braver than the soldier that did not
awear.
One of the greatest naval experts
of Great Dritaln says that the day of
the big battle ship is past; that they
are too vulnerable from attacks be
low from submarines, and from
above by airships. Probably he is
right, and the sooner battleships are
consigned to the Junk pile the bet
ter. If the advent of air ships and
submarines will only lead to the end
ling of war what a blessing they will
prove. Perhaps they are already
blessings in disguise.
At the recent meeting In Chicago
of the General Federation of Wom
an's Clubs, there were some foolish
things said by some foolish women,
as Is always the case in any conven
tion, male or female. Dut such
statements were very few and were
the expressions of extremists of one
kind or another. Taken as a whole
the meeting was marked by great
ability, good sense, and reasonable
ness, especially when It was dealing
"with the great moral and ethical
questions that concern women so
much because they are bo directly
Involved.
An EngliBh clergyman predicts
that in time men beyond middle age
"will be considered. Incumbrances and
be put out of the 'way by being put to
death in a painless manner. That
Is a variation of OBlerlsm. only a lit
tle more drastic. Very thoughtfully
the clergyman made an exception in
favor of old women, who will be
permitted to live because they can
darn stockings and tend children.
But for the poor old man there is
no hope. Not all the remembrance

Startling and horrifying as I? is.
the act was. perhaps, not altogether
unexpected for every king and every
heir to a throne in southeastern Eur
ope holds his life by a slender
thread. The Servian tragedy some
years ago and all of the many mur
ders and crimes from that time up
to the assassination of King George
of Greece about a year ago. have
shown that all the Balkaa states, the
Austrian Empire, and Italy are hot
beds of anarchy and hatred. The
causes are various, but cfalef among
oubi-b iirc vnriuus, oui cuiei among
them are racial Jealousies, class hat-
red roliirln,,. Klunt. .. iir
red, religious bigotry and differenc
es, and the constant attempt on the
pari oi tings and the aristocracy to
crush the political and social aspira
tions of the people.
All these are seen to fnllest extent
In that heterogenous conglomeration
of states known as the Austro-Hun-garian
empire. In no other monar
chy In Europe Is there each a dis
cordant variety of race. Magyar,
German, and Slav, with an almost
Infinite number of Slav groups, ever
lew each other with hatred. Jeal
ously and fear. The assassination
of the Archduke proves that the Bos
nians and Hercegovinlans have nev
r forgiven the annexation of their
countries a few years ago to Aus
tria, and not unlikely taat sentiment
-will be found responsible for the
tragedy.
The death of the Arcttduke natur

reason for thinking that It the ab

There is no language common to all

A CONTRAST AND ITH LESSONS
Two farm houses stood within a
few rods of each other and faced In
the same direction. Both were
large bulldiugs and belonged to
farms remarkable for the fertility of
the soil and bountiful crops. But
there the similarity ended. One bouse
was entirely destitute of shade, there
being no trees or porches to give
shelter from the burning rays of the
sun or to form coxy spots where the
family might gather when the work
day was over. In fact there was
nothing Inviting In the exterior of
the house and in all likelihood the
interior was Just as uninviting.
The other house presented as great
a contrast as can be imagined. Broad
verandas, and graceful trees spoke of
comfort, taste and rest fulness. The
house Itself was neatly painted, and
the lawn with Its beautiful grass,
flower beds, and ornamental shrubs
gave every evidence of refinement,
contentment and nrosnerltv.

The efforts that are being made
thru The Herald to bring about an
Improved condition In political af
fairs at Alliance and in Box Butte
county, bring up my candidacy for
the appointment as register of the
United States land office at Alliance.
My work In politics before I had
any thought of being a candidate for
an appointive office was for the pro
motion of progressive democrary,
the same as it has been since the
turn of events has made me the log
ical appointee, in the opinion of all
the progressive democratic editors
of this part of Nebraska.
No editor appreciates the esteem
and good will of his fellow editors
more than I do. During the last
presidential campaign there were
nine newspapers in the Alliance land
office district that supported the can
didacy of Wocdrow Wilson for pres
ident. One editor published and had
editorial control of two papers, so
that there were eight editors, seven
besides The Herald editor, working
for the election of Mr. Wilson. All
of these editors have given me their
cordial support In my candidacy. I
cannot fully express my appreciation
of their confidence and good will,
which will always be most highly
prized whether I receive the ap
pointment or not. Much as I would
appreciate the emoluments of the of
fice, owing to the desperate fight that
has been made against me and the
paper which I edit, by a combination
of reactionary democrats and repub

Editorial from Chadron Chronicle:
Should He Appointed lU-gister
John W. Thomas, editor of the Al
liance Herald, has announced hli
candidacy for the appointment of
register of the U. S. land office at
Alliance. The editor of this paper
has known Mr. Thomas for several
years, has watched his course as ed
itor of The Herald and he has al
ways been found to be loyal to his
party, a worthy man and one well
qualified to fill the position he asks
for and his appointment would meet
with the approval ofXevery democrat
ic editor of this district, while it
might not meet with the approval of
the "Pussy Foot" fellows who put
themselves up as the self styled
leaders of the democratic party in
Northwest Nebraska who have done
more to help defeat the cause of
democracy in the northwest than
they have done good. We are in
formed that T. J. O'Keefe, recently
from Texas, is on the ground asking
for the appointment, but as we can
see it Tom Is entitled to nothing as
against such a man as Mr. Thomas,
for such milk and water democrats
as he should not be recognized. Let
us have good and worthy men In
these offices who are loyal to the
principles of the party at all seasons
of the. year, and you know where
they stand on all public and political
questions and not those who at
tempt to carry water on both shoul
ders. The Chronicle in In favor of
Mr. Thomas for this position when
the time comes for making the ap
pointment and we will be satisfied
that no mistake will be made In bis
selection.

Mr. Thomas Is a candidate for Reg
ister of the U. S. Land Office at Alli

nearly every good democrat In the

more stood out for those principles,
so famous these days as to be term
ed progressive, and has been a
staunch follower of XV. J. Bryan and
all that he stood for. Here's hoping

will land the Job. He has served
nobly In the ranks of progressive
democracy and has manfully with
stood the Jeers of the reactionary
wing of the democratic party for the
past four years, never allowing the
Bryan banner to trail in the dust.
He is well qualified for the position
and is more deserving of It than
any other candidate in the field.
Success to John W. Thomas.
National Hank Report
Reports of the two national banks
of Alliance, the Alliance National

lars, which is a good showing, es
pecially when it is remembered that
there is still another bank here, the
First State Bank of Alliance, with
a good volume of business.

First State .Bank, was the purchaser
of another of these fine autos.
Not a Candidate
Miss Delia M. Reed, county super
intendent, requests The Herald to
say that she is not a candidate for
election again. The report that she
consented to be a candidate is a mis
take. Three years ago when she
was serving her first term. The Her
ald stated that she was entitled to
re-election without opposition, and
requested that she be given that
honor. It was granted her, no one
else filing as a candidate for that
office. She has done faithful and ef
ficient work in her office, and The
Herald believes she would have been
elected again without opposition had
she not decided at the opening of the
campaign to not be a candidate
again.
Only a "V" apiece is all It will
