Aside from the sweeping nature of the Moorohead victorv and the strencth shown by Mr. Bryan in the ballo'lng. the primary election brought almost no surprises to the well posted Nebraska politicians. The success of Johnson ',wnn a foregone conclusion not onlj', because he was able to fuso., a number of different elements into a working army, but because he was tho only man who spoke out against militarism and a standing army. If the opponents of Johnson had been able to put Hoover on the ticket they would have had some hqpe. As it wai, they knew they were divided between two big military men. and gavo up hope of beating Senator iiiram more than a week ago.

Tho pricos of women's common shoes are put up to make up for losses in extreme stylos that change with each season, nnd tlm ex treme stylos are made not because of a demand for them, but because the" manufacturers order and fix tho styles.
