The league of nations and the
benefits or ills that go with it, accord
ing to the way the individual t'.iinks
*
about the league, promises to make the
campaign this year as exciting and
productive of political oratory as the
famous free silver campaign issue of
1896. Even now speakers at gather
ings of all kinds overlook few oppor
tunities to talk a little politics, no
matter how inappropriate the occa
sion. Last Sunday a minister invited
to deliver a memorial address in honor
of the country’s soldier dead, speaking
in one of the leading churches in one
of Nebraska’s largest towns, devoted
his entire discourse to an eulogy of
President Wilson as the author of
peace on earth and abolishment of
war. One is reminded of the funeral
of the stranger in a small inland town
in Kansas during the campaign of
1896. The stranger pased away,
penniless, during the absence on va
cation of the only minister the town
afforded, and a band of kindly-hearted
citizens conducted the last sad rites as
sisted only by the local undertaker.
When the body was about to be con
signed to the grave the undertaker
asked if anyone present could and
would make a few remarks suitable to
the occasion. The members of the
funeral party stirred rather restlessly
and for a time no one spoke. Then a
bewhiskered follower of William Jen
nings Bryan, who was in politics in
those days too, according to ancient
history, cleared his throat and huskily
remarked that if no one else cared to
speak he would Mko to talk a little on
the free and unlimited coinage of
silver, and the stranger Was consigned
to the grave ta the tune of sixteen to
one.
NOTICE.
We, the land owners and tax pay
ers of Rock Falls Township, Holt
County, Nebraska, in a called meeting
assembled do most vigorously protest
against the present land tax levy, as
being unjust, unreasonable, and unac
ceptable. We condemn the men re
sponsible for such unjust burden of
taxation, being levied against us, be
lieving such men unfit, and incompe
tent to hold any office of public trust.
We are willing to accept a fair and
reasonable raise in our assessment,
believing public appropriations, and
public expenditures should be re
duced to correspond with a fair and
reasonable tax levy. We will not ac
cept, the present unjust burden with
out a most vigorous protest.

You’d have .called it a Midsummer
Night’s Dream—if anyone had told
you a few years ago that a man might
dress right smartly in the torrid dog
days, and still look and feel cool and
comfortable. But that’s a Midsummer
Night’s Reality today—a Midsummer
high noon Reality too—let old Sol do
his blazing worst. These fifteen Mo
hairs, shown on Pages 6, 8 and 10, are
as good looking and as adaptable to
fine tailoring as any full-weight
Worsted. But they’re as light as a
gentle Zephyr; and as cool as a miser
to his poor relations.

to your special order by the Royal
Tailors. Price $22.50.
