Good Things
Falls City Journel: Taking it all
in all, many good things still exist for
those who appreciate them. Particu
larly, there is country sausage, rich
and pungent with spice if one likes it
highly seasoned. In fact one of the
blessings of the depression is that it
has left a greater supply of hogs for
sausage-making and has forced the
country sausage-maker back into the
business. t' t
Will it Please Them?
W'ymorean: They have established
a county labor bureau in Beatrice,
where the road jobs and other public
jobs will be dished out. The out of
works who did all their trading in
Beatrice when they had jobs here will
probably be suited with that arrange
ment.
NATIONAL AFFAIRS.
By Frank P. Litschert
Already there are evidences that the
political peace which descended upon
the country after the election on No
vember 8, is about to be dispelled.
That it was anything more than an
armed truce, was of course not to have
been expected. Now that the echos of
the French debt disagreement have be
gun to die away, leaders in Congress
are beginning to do a little arms brand
ishing on domestic issues with the evi
dent purpose of reaping whatever po
litical advantage there is to be reaped.
Senator Robinson, of Arkansas,
Democratic leader in the present Sen
ate opened the attack the other day
by inferring that the Republicans were
already using obstructive tactics with
the evident purpose of forcing an extra
session of the new Congress which
comes into being with the new admin
istration on March ,4. The Senator
even went so far as to express fear
that President Hoover himself might
veto some of the legislation to be
passed by the present Congress for
A Bladder Physic
Is a medicine that works on the
bladder as castor oil on the bowels.
Drives out impurities and excess acids
that cause irritation which results in
getting up nights, frequent desire,
buring, leg pains and backache. Get a
25c test box of BU-KETS, (5 gr. Tab
lets) the pleasant bladder physic frqm
any druggist. After four days if not
relived go back and get your money.
You will feel better after this cleans
ing and you will get your regular sleep.

WANT LOWER GASO
LINE TAXES. With some
forty-odd state legisla
tures looking for addi
tional revenue, the Ameri
can Automobile Club has
inaugurated a campaign
against increasing the tax
on gasoline which al
ready aggregates more
than $40,000,000,
the purpose of forcing an extra ses
sion, and interferring with the Roose
veltian program.
Republican leaders were not long ii
coming back at the gentleman fron:
| Arkansas. Representative Snell, the
Republican leader in the House
charged in very unkindly fashion that
the Democrats in the present Congress
have no program and have never hac
any except that which was encom
passed in the slogan “beer by Christ
mas.” Congressman Treadway ol
Massachusetts was even more specific
when he said:
“ThA Democratic Party controls the
House and with its coalition vote also
controls the Senate. In what way,
therefore, can it be said that the Re
publican Party is today defeating leg
islation? Since the night of Novem
ber 8 it has been known that the next
administration will be Democratic.
Ha- any announcement come either
through the President-elect or the
Democratic leaders o;f Congress of any
fixed program which that party has in
prospect ?
rresiaent Hoover nas snown ms
good offices in endeavoring to cooper
ate with President-elect Roosevelt in
the question of international debts,
bjqt his efforts toward cooperation have
been declined. The Democratic leaders
of the Senate have announced that
under no circumstances will any nom
inations of the present administration
be confirmed. Thi sattitude has cost
the government the expert services of
such a man as Charles R. Crisp of
peorgia, on tthe U. S. Tariff Commis
sion and undoubtedly other non-part
isan appointments. This enormous
Democratic political appetite for every
thing possible from elevator boys at
the Capitol to international arbiters
makes for crippling the efficiency of
the government and continued delay.”
And so it will continue to go from
now on. There will of course be a de
cided change in strategy when the new'
administration comes in. The Demo
crats will then for the first time in
twelve years be on the defensive. Their
unprecedented victory has given them
entire control of the government. The
mantle of responsibility has been tak
en from the shoulders of the Republic
ans and placed squarely on the should
ers of the Democrats.
Jf i 1 "
During the past twelve years it has
keen the pleasure, if not the duty, of
the Democrats to attack, to pleague
the Republican majority in every way
possible. The Republicans with an ad
niinistration to defend, and with the
responsibility of putting through plat
form measures, have been under a ser
ious handicap, when it came to the
matter of handing out political barbed
shafts and keen cutting criticism. A
great many Republican partisans have
complained that during the past few
years the Republican leaders have not
been aggressive in attack. But now
that the situation has changed com
pletely and the Republicans have little
to do except to go out with their
freshly sharpened harpoons the situa
tion is going to be reversed, and the
democrats will occupy the uncomfort
able seats.
This is the way it always turns out
in the arena of American politics.
Political students who do not think
the Republicans can or will take ad
vantage of the opportunity to be of
fered them in tne coming months have
evidently forgotten the closing months
of the W'lson adm?nis;ra’. .n and the
tremendous Republiban fight made
against the League of Nations, the
treaty of Versailles and government
control of railroads and other great
utilities. The Republicans could do
this because they were in the minority.
They are again in the minority.
Pathfinder: He—Let me hold your
hand for a minute; that isn’t asking
much.
She—But how are you to know when
the minute is up?
He—Oh, I’ll have to hold your sec
ond hand for that.
Pathfinder: Film magnate, enter
ing studio—Who’s that fellow over
there ?
Director—Why, that’s Napoleon.
Magnate—Why did you get such a
little man to play such an important
part ?
“Bingo claims he went all through
the World war without a scratch.’’
“If that is so it must be because
cooties don’t bother him.”—Pathfinder.

Pathfinder: Visitor—Do the federal
I officers co-operate with the local au
j thorities in this town in enforcing the

Native—Yes; the federal officers ar
rest the local police and the local
police arrest the federal officers.

Pathflinier: “Old Borley the after

“He said to them that he would not
go on until they quieted down.”
