DEMOCRATIC SIMPLICITY.
Kansas City Star: The United
States has prided itself on a certain
, simplicity that it has maintained in
its representation in Europe. Ameri
can ambassadors never have worn
court costumes. Their manner of
living has been studiously unostenta
tious.
Benjamin Franklin, probably A
merica’s greatest diplomat, set the
fashion when he appeared at the
gorgeous court of France in his sober
Quaker rain/nent of colonial russet,
without a wig and wearing his fa
mous cap of marten fur.
No American wishes to be penur
ious in the nation’s provision for-the
comfort of those who shall attend the
peace conference. But it is some
thing of a shock to read that the most
magnificent hotel in Paris, that has
always been reserved for royalty has
been leased for a year by the United
States for $400,000; that the bureau
of ^public information is to have an
enormous furnished mansion at Ver
sailles,” and that a former Atlantic
liner was refitted to take the members
of the mission and their wives, under
the escort of a battle fleet.
Evidently an expenditure of several
million dollars is planned in con
nection with America’s representa
tion at the conference. This is being
done at a time when people are being
urged to save every penny possible to
invest in thrift stamps to pay the ex
pense of the government.
The combination doesn’t sit well.
Obey Quarantine Or Be Prosecuted.
The State Department of Health
held its recent conference to decide
principally two things.
First: Are the various counties,
• cities and villages sufficiently organ
ized to render efficient aid to their
health departments in putting down
this epidemic?
Second: In the event that the
State Department of Health were to
declare Influenza an absolutely quar
antinable disease, would the counties,
cities and villages see that the quar
antine was promptly enforced and
strictly maintained?
The first proposition was unani
mously answered in the affirmative,
the second almost so, by representa
tives from almost every county in
the state. The State Department of
Health has accordingly made this
an absolutely quarantinable disease
and it is expected that the counties,
cities and villages in whose jurisdict
ion cases occur, will see that the
regulations are obeyed and viola
tions promptly prosecuted.
Very truly yours,
Nebraska State Department of Health.

inform and give your honorable body
to understand that the section line

in such condition that the establish

able and impossible because of the
nature of the terriory and the condi

and that it is impossible and i m
practicable to contruct roads on those

to have a public road through such

the location of Road No.-as here

the following report:
After taking and subscribing to the

In accordance with the appoint
ment and copy of petition hereunto
attached and made a part of this re
port, after taking into consideration
both public and private convenience
and expense of a road to fill the place
of the part of Road No. 2, which is
not now in use and never has been
used. And realizing the immediate
need of an open road with a passable
grade, and having run this line and
staked the same to the most practical
grade, and on firm laNi that will make
a hard road bed at the least ex

same be established as follows, to

Commencing on Road No. 2 at a
point 7.42 chains north of the southeast
corner of the northeast quarter of the
southeast quarter of section 11, town
