Lincoln is on the route of no
tables and some freaks drop in
to look us over. A late visitor
was a gent who has sealed him
self in an automobile and is to
do 140 thousand miles, touching
each of the 48 states if he is to
win a bet of 25-thousand-dollars.
An attendant in another car is
accompanying him to service the
imprisoned gent’s car. The assist
ant is to supply him with grub
and some human necessities are
taken care of with products from
the laboratory. The start
was made at Ashland, Ore,,
and 35 thousand miles had been
covered on arrival in Lincoln.
The itinerary has advertising
value for the makers of the car
and prizes are awarded to those
who guess the nearest to number
of miles traveled at given stops.
Accepting a prize when no mon
ey transaction is involved does
not come under the Nebraska
attorney general’s crack-down on
gambling.

In one of those weekly publi
cations printed in all colors of
ink, which has a large share in
the annual multi-million dollar
take from “booze” ads, there is
a belabored editorial on the U S.
being the hub of the new world.
New world indeed!
Is it not surrounded by a de
crepit, decaying, old and perish
ing world? From desolated Eur
ope, out of the dry rot of the far
East, from islands of the seas,
from everywhere the cry comes
to us for succor, not from a new
world but from a fagged-out old
world. Our unlimited resources,
our large bounty, our lavish giv
ing may hold the shell together
for the moment but it is no
guarantee for the future.
The board of pardons has re
duced from five to three years
the prison term of a man con
victed for manslaughter. It
would appear that the sentence
of the court was not at all se
vere for such a crime. Two men
fought. The blow of one caused
the death of the other. A slap in
the face might have netted the
gent a dollar fine but five years
as the penalty for a murderous
blow seems little enough.

So far, the only protest
move to suppress gambling,
against the attorney general's
comes in a howl from the
State Federation of Labor. At
torney General Anderson did
not make the laws but he sets
out to see that they are en
forced.

Probably the House of Repre
sentatives chaplain got a thrill
out of what he read in the Con
gressional Record. The Record
read that his salary was $3,750,

in three extras zeros and maybe
the proof-reader went to sleep
on the job. But the clergyman
has been painfully aware that
his annual take from a congres
sional source is $3,750. Pioneer
clergymen in Holt county con
sidered themselves lucky if their
annual cash receipts amounted
to $375.
