The world at large has problems, too,

It’s time to plant the com and rye,

INTERESTING LETTER FROM
ROBERT G. SIMMONS
The oil disclosures continue to oc
cupy the front page in Washington.
There is a unanimous condemnation
of the whole transaction and the in
dividuals connected with it, a demand
that all the facts be disclosed, that the
guilty be brought to judgment and
the pernicious influence of great
wealth be effectively wiped out.
While these investigations are being
carried on, the work of Congress con
tinues. All but one of the great ap
propriation bills have passed the
House and several have been ap
proved by the President.
The House Committee on Agricul
ture is still engaged in trying to work
out a farm bill. There has been
some changes in the bill vetoed by the
President. Efforts have been made
to remove the objectional features.
The bone of contention is the “equal
ization fee” and that the Committee
has decided shall stay in the bill. It
is too early to predict when the bill
will be reported; in what form it will
finally be or what final action will be
taken.
The House lust week passed by an
almost unanimous vote the naval au
thorization bill. The Navy Depart
ment asked for seventy-one ships—a
staggering amount and a proposal
that met with general disapproval in
the country. The authorization bill
that passed1 the House provided for
fifteen ships to be started five a year
for the next three years. This is
largely a replacement program. Many
of the ships now in the naval service
arc obsolute, some of them being in
commission prior to the Spanish
American War. The bill authorizes
the Presidnt to stop construction and
calls upon the President to seek fur
ther limitation of naval armaments.
Congrress, likewise, has it in its power
to check this program by refusing to
appropriate the necessary money to
build the ships.
The outstanding legislative action
of the Senate has been the passage
of the resolution authorizing govern
ment operation of Muscle Shoals.
This resolution was sponsored by Sen
ator Norris. Its passage is the result
of a ten-year fight he has made to
prevent the sale of that great project
or its leasing to private interests. The
resolution now goes to the House
Committee on Military Affairs. The
final action of the House cannot be
prophesied!. There is an increasing
sentiment in the House for govern

Each of the above candidates heartily endorsee the splendid record
of Senator Norris.
HE IS OUR CHOK E FOR PRESIDENT
Since Senator Norris will receive the republican presidential pre
ference vote from Nebraska, common honesty dictates that he should
be represented in the convention by those who favor his nomination.
For delegates to go to the convention and not in good faith work and
vote for Norris would be political dishonesty. Norris is entitled to
have his cause in the convention presented through the mouths of his
friends. Therefore, if elected we will respect the preference vote of
our party for president and sincerely and without equivocation work
and vote for Norris.
-\
The friends of Norris should support this list of candidates. Most
of them ure life long boosters of Norris and the things for which he
stands. It Is true that a few of them may not. always have been his
staunch supporters, hut they are men of honor and Integrity, who have '
promised to work and vote in good faith for Norris in the Convent ion.

Jim Carn was sore at Melvin Jay,
the reasons are unknown; the trouble
started one spring day when they
were both alone. So Jim, as men are
wont to do, saw Jay in bitter light; he
saw in him no purpose true, no
thought or action right. And then
one day a chance appeared to tell a
sordid tale, and as Jim told a scandal
leered that turned his hearers pale.
The folks who heard with wild dismay
were shocked to say the least, yet
stopped their friends upon the way
and spread it west and east. The
story spread and daily grew to mon
strous shape ar.d size; and not a word
of it wras true, such is the power of
lies. In days that passed the truth
arose and silenced scandal’s flame;
yet Melvin Jay still feels its blows,*it
left him worn and lame. Jim Carn
who first made up the tale is known
both far and near us just a liar who
should in jail end up his punk career.
Our enemies with ease we sting by
gossip’s poisoned fang; yet if we do
we’ll find the thing will, prove a
boomerang.—Brick Smith.
