Advise to O’Neill Saddle Clubbers:

tty HO MAINE SAUNDEP*
LINCOLN—To the social fea
tures of the community it is noted
a move is on to get a saddle club
going in O'Neill Old riders can
recommend riding horses for
health, pleasure and the thrill of
some hazards.
If your mount on the lope hits
a badger hole he more than like
ly will turn a somersault and you
will get a spill.

O'Neill has had some riders of

who lived on West Douglas saeet,
was downtown about every day
on his saddle horse. As me
colonel weighed 250 it was sug

With ears atune to the soft flut
ter of U. S. treasury notes, Lin
wui uuainvas imcrtrsi's ana nape
ful labor has been given a thrill
by the announcement of “reac-1
tivation’’ of what amounts to a
military gtr base, in other words,
a target for enemy bombs if the
expected invasion breaks lose in
the months ahead. Sometlung
fine is fading away from the cap
itol city of prairieland in the
scramble for factories, industrial
growth and federal financed in
stitutions, the more of which are
in a community the more abun
dant are the targets for bomb
raids. This may not be and again
it may be. Much of the world
has become our enemies that
some day may try another Pearl
Harbor, and with our military
might everywhere but guarding
our shores, what is there to hin
der it? Does the government air
base mean further encroachment
on our capitol city as a cultural
center?
T That little state of Rhode Is
land also has its scandals. The
treasurer of a university is ac
cused with swiping $i5,0u0 of tne
schools funds. . , According to
one member of the faculty of the
state university there was some
census padding in 1890 by a few
of Nebraska’s biggest towns—a
disclosure which is not very im
portant ,. What are termed “mid
western democrats” have de
clared themselves for the renotn
rnation of Mr. Truman and his
former running mate, Vice-Presi
dent Barkley. The midwest demo
crats are probably the midwest
federal job "holders. . . In 1850 a
writer in the Dublin Nation sized
us up: “A wonderful empire em
erging amid the silence of the
earth and daily adding to its
power and pride.” We have made
quite a noise to disturb the “si
lence of the earth" in the past 100
years. , . Jeannette Rankin was
the first woman to break into
congress, a member of the house
from Montana. Now there are 10
women in the house and one in
the senate. . . Fred Curd, of Win
chelsea, England, is paid $3.15 a
year for looking at the sea every
anoming as he goes to work, to
see if a pirate s-*ip is coming, of
which there has been none since
the 17th century.

I had been rather friendly to
ward the bid of the gentleman
down at Ord for the republican
nomination for governor, but
tor Senator Carson to ask for
endorsement at the county con
ventions indicates over anxious
ness tor that upholstered throne
in the governor's ornate quar
ters.

What is this thing now that
Holt county patriots who work
their land are supposed to do to
get a permit, a license, a com
mission, a certificate or what is
it the paid functionaries are
handing out? I wonder how mas
ter farmers such as Den Murphy
out in the Michigan settlement,
Bill Grothe up by Emmet or
George Meals out from Atkinson
like the idea of being told what
to do, when to do it or whether it
be beans or turnip seed they are
to plant. Probably none of these
oldtimers care to be relieved of
the responsibility of thinking for
themselves and determining
which shall be what with respect
to their sowing and reaping.
| A highway map in circulation
has it ihal Chambers is the mod
populous town in Holt county,
wiih a population of 4.850. Of
course the patriots there have
reason to feel pretty big. What
is lacking in quantity is made
up in quality.

Three guys just released from
the penitentiary got rough with a
city patrolman when along came
a railroad worker with a good
Irish name and says to the cop,
“Want some help?" He did. The
railroader, handy with his dukes,
laid one fellow out, the second
took to his heels and was caught
by the Good Samaritan, while the
policeman ha. uffed the gent
knocked out and then corraled
the third. The 3 were put back
under the supervision of jail
functionaries.

Since congress started on the

The President’s doubts about a
military man making a good
president, says one observer, are
partly correct. And adds, one
former captain failed miserably—
Captain Truman.

The idea of universal military
grip upon cur boys for a period
of 8 years is repugnant to Ameri
can thought, yet if it were so as to
merely provide for those boys
who seem to have no other am

worthwhile service would be
brought to them.

every such eligible voter's interest to be at this meeting. It is
