Woman suffrage and participa tion in the league of nations are part of the plan of the little repub lic of Cuba. :o: They can't keep the Smiths out of the limelight. One of the family has finished third in the trans-conti nental air derby. :o: A budget system for the operation of the government has been passed and should prove a big step in cut ting out useless waste. :o: The prohibition national conven tion may come to Lincoln next year. A better place for holding the con vention would be hard to find. :o: The new Czecho-Slovakian gov ernment is considering the adoption of prohibition to aid in securing a solution of war time problems. : :o: Press dispatches states the kaiser is plotting a return to power. How far he can get remains to be seen. His nation should have had enough of his brand of government. :o: The prospects of the coal strike and the boosting of prices point to the war time coal rationing by the government having to be invoked again to satisfactorily handle the situation. :o: Much Interest Is attacked to the Nebraska-Oklahoma football game in Omaha on Saturday.

Windham representa tive from Cass and Otoe counties took the proper stand when voting against the resolution introduced in the house of representatives against the League of Nntions. If the leg islature would confine itself to the needed legislation for the state they would do well. :o: The late Prince Rupprecht of Ba varia, is furious that he has been lifted by the French as one of those to be tried by the nations of the world for his crime against human ity. Well it makes little difference to the allies how Ituppey feels about the matter. He should remember the protest of his enemiest when he introduced the poison gas into the war.

Simultaneously with the passage by the national house of representa tives of a bill to prevent policemen's strikes in the District of Columbia, the senate railroad committee which is framing a permanent railroad plan adopted a provision penalizing strikes on the transportation lines. The two measures, in a way. hang together. Both are intended for the protection of the general public against Intolerable interference with its welfare and safety by a group of men employed in a public capacity. The public character of railroad men is not quite so evident as that of policemen, but still clear enough to rally the general public in sup port of this policy. Railroad em ployees, by walking out and tying up transportation, can do nearly as much harm as a police force which leaves a city without protection against violence' and crime. Neither can be endured. In Justice to organized labor, which regards such a measure as a dangerous infringement of its rights, it is necessary of course to provide the means whereby its griev ances may be considered and all legitimate demands met. The rail road bill will contain provisions in tended to accomplish this. If they are not sumcieni, tney can ue amended. The men must be treated fairly. But there should be no corn- premise on the no-strike principle. It is worthy of note, too. that railroad capital as well as labor is being subjected to unprecedented federal control. The bill as it stands today provides for more dras tic regulation than ever, at the hands of the . interstate commerce commission and federal transporta tion board, and for the arbitrary limitation of profits and the turning of excess profits over to the trans portation board for a "national con tingent fund." The employes and owners are "brothers in misery." so far as fed eral dictation is concerned. The new plan, however, is intended for the benefit of both, as well as the outside public, and should work out so in the long run. :o: "FREEDOM." When a lawless mob invaded the streets of New York the other day. among the banners it displayed was one that read: "Deport us to Rus sia; there we t-hall be free." Russia is a vivid example of the kind of freedom the red radicals have in mind. They will never get it here. If they do, this will np longer be America. And those who like the kind of freedom that lol- shevist Russia enjoys should by all means be sent there as speedily as possible not to oblige ftiem. but to clean, America of the vermin that seek to destroy it. Freedom as Russia exemplifies it is this kind of freedom: Freedom to 'destroy; freedom to burn and lay waste; freedom to kill; freedom to rob and plunder at will; freedom to tyrannize over everybody who has $2 and a white collar; freedom to try to live without work; freedom to experiment in maintaining so ciety without production of the necessaries of life; freedom of the mob to rule, and of the middle class to submit to mob rule; freedom of crime that means paralysis of law. order, peace and security of life or property. Russia has that freedom. There are men in America who want, to import that freedom and set it going here. All but one in a thousand of these men are aliens alien in birth, alien in tongue, alicu in thought, alieji In purpose. They do not be long here. They do no good here. So far as their efforts succeed, they can do only unimaginable evil. Though they are small in numbers, if they are left unchecked they can do great harm. It takes only one man to throw a bomb. One man can apply a torch that will destroy mil lions of dollars' worth of property. One man can spread much poisoned thought, and unsettle the minds of ignorant thousands. If America is free to protect it self, there is but one thing to do. That is to deport promptly every agent of alien disruption, dissension and destruction. America needs a housecleaning. It needs to rid itself of every such agent of criminal revolution. The government is not moving anywhere near fast enough in this most neces- sary enterprise. uuiuin neraiu. -:o: THE HONEST AMERICAN. industrial classes of remarkable for their faith is the testimony Marris. founder of the banks. These banks on character, earning That the America are honesty and of Arthur J. Morris plan lend money power and ability, rne norrower is made to repay his loan by saving a regular sum weekly or monthly un til the loan is repaid. These banks serve the great mass of the people who need financial credit just as the banks which loan only on the old fashioned type of collateral serve the well-to-do. At the annual convention cf the directors and trustees of these banks, the statement was made that $125,000,000 has been loaned in 104 cities of the country with a loss of less than $1 per $1,000. It is a cheering thought, in these days when we are being told on ev ery hand that we are all money-mad and totally unbalanced in our de mand for luxuries, to realize that, take us on the whole, we pay our debts. We may demand that the piper play for our .dancing, if danc ing be our mood. But when the gray of the morning after comes along we are willing to work souer ly and use the product of our toil to pay the piper. :o. TWO FARMS FOR RENT.
