master, as the case may be, every as
sistance within your power. Please
communicate the contents of this let

exempt, but must be registered.
"This registration does not apply
to Austriaus, Bohemians, or any al
iens other than Germans.
"We urge that if you have not al

council regarding this impending
registration, you call a meet ins af

LACK OF HELP CAUSES
TUENING DO WIT OF WORK
From Friday's Daily
Edward E. Simpson, ot Oakland
Iowa, was in t lie city today looking
after the matter of getting some
goods manufactured, and visited the
Western Machine and Foundry com
pany rn this connection. Here he
found it impossible to get 1: is work
done as the company is crowded to
the utmost, having orders ahead for
goods which have been contracted
for some time. With the difficulty
of getting he.'p becoming more ser
ious all the time, it is no longer pos
sible for thi-s growing industry to
accept all the business proffered it.
The goods air. Simpson desired to
have manufactured here were a
quantity of curtain stretchers, for
m:o in drying lace curtains and also
as a nuilting frame. He also had
with him a patent ladder jack 'for
the use of painters.
THE PLAIN TRUTH
What More Can Plattsmouth People
Ask?
When well-known residents and
highely-respected people of Platts
mouth make such statements as the
following, it must carry conviction
to every reader:
Louis Kroehler, prop. hardware
store, 521 Main St., Plattsmouth,
says: "About a year ago, I had pain
in my back. I was so lame I couldn't
stoop. My kidneys wore weak and I
had a tired, languid feeling nearly
all the time. Headaches were com
mon. I bought Doan's Kidney Pills
from Edward Rynott & Co.'s Drug
Store and they soon relieved me."
(Statement given April 10, 1912.)
On February 22. 1910. Mr. Kroeh
ler said: "I still hold the same high
estimation of Doan'K Kidney Pills as
when I first endorsed them. It has
been "several years since I have had
to take a kidney medicine."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy

EEANDENBUEG- COIBIANBEE
DISSOLVES ORGANIZATION
DIRECTING MOVEMENT.
BERLIN SAYS ALL GUIET km
Such Reports as Come Through Indi
cate Disturbance Is
Subsiding.
London, Feb. 1. A dispatch to
the Exchange Telegraph from Copen
hagen, quoting Berlin advices, says
the commander-in-chief in the Bran
denburg district which includes Ber
in. has dissolved the council of Cve
hundred appointed by the workmen
to watch over their interest during
the strike.
The dispatch adds that the com
mander also has prohibited the ap
pointment of any organization for
directing the strike movement.
A later dispatch from Berlin says
all was quiet.
Although apparently nuuierci"'
urikers throughout the empire thus
far have failed to return to work,
there seemingly has been a l-sening
:n the tensity of the ritual lor.
Meanwhile from Hungary comes a
reiteration of the sincere and earn
est desire of that country for peace,
made before the diet by. the prime
minister.
Veil of Uncertainly.
The failure of German newspapers
to arrive at the u.nial neutral points
from which news of conditions in
lir-rimmy" is dis..?iu:ina;ed leave a
veil of uncertainty over the t xaet
status of affairs there. Such ;:die-'S
as have come through, however, tend
to indicate that the strike movement
has reached its greatest height and
now is in the process of dwindling
This fact is ascribed to the seeming
luke-warmr.ess of the labor leaders
towa-fd the movement, ami, also,
and in great pe.rt, to the strong
repressive measures adopted by the
government.
The commander of the Branden
burg h:io issued this warning to the
public:
"Having now introduced a more
drastic str.-e of siee. I shall not
have tim population in doubt that I
intend to suppress every altem;; to
di.:!;:rb peace and order v. Mb al!
means at my disposal. I. therefore,
warn every orderly citi;. u to
?ike part in a;vy way in pu'.die meet
ings. Every one must quietly carry
out his duties end keep away from
crowds. If arms have to b" used, no
distinction can be made b-t vor-!! di--turbers
of order and those who are
not taking pert in such disturb
ances." Hamburg e;u Bremen have been
plated under martial law.
Vonvaerts Out Arjain.
Amsterdam. Feb. 1 . A rer.ii-off!-eial

committed Thursday caused the gov

the strike.
These measures at once were put
into effect and the strike do--s not
appear to he increasing.
The Vorwaerts. the sociali ;t organ,
which veas suppressed three days

city, street traffic and other civic ac

The partial strike-- at Dortmund

An onrlicr report told of the kill

Berlin advices say that up to 1
o'clock thia afternoon there had been

worthy demonstrations.
The dispatch adds that the news
from the other parts of the empire
was satisfactory.

THE STREET FAKIRS
OF THE FAR EAST
Travelers through the Far East
are familiar with the types cf street
entertainers or "fakirs", famous
throughout the Orient, Lyman II.
Howe, whose Travel Festival comes
to the Parmele on Thursday, Fe'o. 7,
has caught one of the odd varieties.
This street entertainer, of Canton,
an old Chinaman, specializes in the
gentle are of smashing rocks with
'.lis head. He place-; a stone in the
middle of the street, takes a deep
hrea: h, leaps into the air and lands
gently but firmly hondforemnst on
the rack. The colli -ion invariably
ehe.tte.rs the stone.
This oudity is only cue of man;
stranqe thing recorded by the

year photographic trip through
China, which lakes the Ilov.e tour

ALASKA IS FISHER
MEN'S PARADISE
Fish Can 3e Caught With Bare
Hand.
Lovers of fishing will find much to
interest them in Lyman II. Howe's
latest Travel Festival, which will be
offered at the Parmele on Thursday,
Feb. 7th.
A feature of the new program is
a beautiful and entertaining Alaskan
series, which, among other things,
takes spectators cn a salmon fishing
trip. Salmon return to the places
of their birth, scientists have found,
after four years to spawn and die.
Often they travel 20.000 to 30.000
miles in a lifetime. Mr. Howe has
secured some very interesting pic
tures the mrst remarkable ever tak
en of salmon leaping against the
powerful current up falls. They
frequently work their way up falls
20 to no feet high on the way inland
to spawn.
Mr. Howe's tour af Alaska also re
veals the old ancl new method of
fishing, showing hwo huge nets auto
matically trap thousands of salmon
every hour for canning. Salmon are
frequently so thick in river pools
hat they cr.n be caught with bare
hands. One of Mr. Howe's pictures
hows a fisherman reaching into the
water and landing a huge salmon
with cue hand.
The Alaskan tour, which is one
f the headliners of the new Travel
I'e-tival. a No preecnts the birth of
an iceberg in the North Pacific. The
immense mountain of ice was caught
"n its moment of breaking from a
glacier and crashing into the sea.
The picture was made from an open
boat at great danger to the photog
rapher. Other features of the new
towe program show Uncle Sam's
gigantic cat erpiller war tractors in
pectacular action, a joyful day and
night at Coney Island, a fascinating
!our of China, and the thrilling cap
ture of a wild mountain lion. Amus

HENRY FORD TO BUILD
SCORES OF SOB FIGHTERS
Washington, Jan. CI. New sub
marine fighters of a powerful type
are about to be turned out in the
United States in large numbers. Af
ter testifying today before the house
naval committee on the naval appro
priation bill. Secretary Daniels auth
orized the statement that contracts
for "several scores." of the new craft
have been placed with tiie Ford Mo
tor company, of Detroit. He describ
ed them as "half way l et ween a de
stroyer and a submarine chaser."
200 feet long and equipped with
latest discoveries for combatting sub
marines. .Ml parts of the ships except the
engines are to be faliicatod in De
troit and the parts shipped to sea
board, where they will be assembled.
Deliveries on the contracts during
the ccniing eummcr are assured, Mr.
Daniels said.
The new vessels are expected to
rpove far superior to the chasers
now in use. including thoe of the
110-foot class. They will have steam
power, with a greater radius of ac
tion; will be more seaworthy, and
will be able to carry heavier arma
ment. It has developed that the lat
est German submarines are equipped
with guns that outrange those of the
small chasers, and even some mer
chant ships.
