May 4 1 Special Cor respondence ) "Farmers all over this country are considerably stirred .tp over rural credits legislation," said a southern member of congress. "The idea has come to be quite prevalent that, the administration has ‘cold feet' on the rural credits proposition and that the proposed bill, which has the hacking of the president, is merely makeshift and not. what, the farmers of the country want. My mall Is filled with protests from farmers, and other members tell me the name thing. It is being quietly whispered about, that the administration, which two years ago was in favor of rural credits, has grown lukewarm on the subject. The farmers throughout the country are not to he fooled and they are giving the men who are back of this rural credits proposition some anxious mo ments. It Is stated about the capitol that the plan was to pans a rural credits bill just previous to adjoutn merit at. this session, which falls far short of the demands of the farmers of the country. I think It Is a mighty good thing the farmers are 'smoking the president out' on this proposition.” "I have aerveu in many congreatteK, but J muat aay that thla aeaalon of the <Hth baa accompliahed about an little aa any In the hlatory of the govern ment,” aaltl a middle-weal democrat It: member. "Here we have been In nes Hion nearly live monthn anti practically nothing haa been done. None of the great tiueatloim confronting uh haa been aolved or met and there la no ltd I Ing when they will be. Hero our re vnnuea are falling behind appulllngly and yet nothing la being done to re plentah them. The democratic party cannot, continue thin do-nothing policy and expect to get away with It. Our party ieadera aeem all at aea and are not pulling together In iiiiIhoii or bar niony. Thla congreaa must wake tip pretty anon anti do aomething or a good many of uh will not be here after thla aeHHlon." "The trimming the Ilryan rurally got In Nebraska In tho recent primaries, shows that the once peerless leafier Is slipping badly,” said a western demo cratlc member.. "Tho truth Ih that the people have got tired of the dicta Hon of Ilryan. Any man in any party who assumes to do all of the thinking for the party and who taken on him self tho prerogative of settling all public (juestlnns. Is riding to a fall. When you get right down to brass lacks, the American people do their own thinking, and they have never yet failed to rebuke the men who thought for a fleeting moment they ruled the universe." A recent visitor at the capitol was National Committeeman V. L. High land, of West Virginia. He was most |optimistic as to th«- republican situa Mon In his state. He said that there is already great Interest manifested in the primaries to choose delegates to the coming national republic an con vention. They will be held on May 4th. H pea king of the political outlook in West Virginia, he said: "There is no question as to the way our' state will go In the general election. We shall carry West Virginia for the na tional and state tickets and elet t a:> almost entire republican delegation to the next congress. "i t an tell you the administration is ‘sweating’ some on this Mexican pro position," said a democratic <ongr>- . man from one of the border state "President Wilson has at la t dis covered that, when h<- Joined hand*, with Carranza he got hold of a red hot poker. He is trying to let loose now and he cannot. I arn pretty well satisfied that he Is looking for a chance lo hack out of Mexico and get the American troops away. 1 am not a good democrat, but let me say one thing. If the administration pulls the troops out of Mexico after all this ado and after what has happened down there, then In my oplnino, you can sing the ‘swan song' for our party. We will he hurled beneath the Votes of the American people and we ought to be." THE EXPECTED HA9 HAPPENED. The Issuing of bonds in time of peace for the purpose of paying gov ernmental expenses Is purely a demo cratic procedure. Cleveland did I*; and now Wilson will do it. The army hill which has just passed the senate contains a provision for he expenditure of fifteen million do! lars for the establishment of water power plants for the manufacture of nitrates to he used in the production <f munitions and for fertilizers. The money is to lie procured by the issu ance and sale of that sum In Canal bonds. The canal, it will be remembered, was constructed at a cost running into he hundreds of millions and was paid for, largely, out of the current receip's of the treasury as provided iri the v,l e revenue laws for which the repuhli can party stood sponsor. In effect, we republicans built the canal out the small change In the nation's purse. Ifut, the democrats, to find fifteen millions, have to issue bonds. A bond issue was confidently predicted as one of the certain results of a demo cratic administration and, sure enough it is to occur. It is tlie happening of the expected. All explorer in South America has discovered the remnants of the well nigh extinct tribe of the I’lkipltanges, consisting of a chief, Hix women and • wo boys. They will be joined, early in November, by the remnants of the democratic party in the United States. The man behind the gun is cutting n big Hwntli in Europe Just now, but. the lad behind the plow keeps right on witii Ids forward movement in the U. S. A. If war comes some men will tight from choice, a few from necessity, and the majority will let the other fellows do their lighting. POLITICAL CHATTER. From Apr;! 1 to April 11, the "free ' < a; i," In the treasury decreased, even J according to M' Adoo’a fanciful form of statement. $3,371,517. Small won der that the democrat* in the senate, when voting fifteen million; for a ni trate plant, provided for an issue of Panama Faria) bonds to meet the cost of the Hem. The Bryan family seems to be near ing the end of its road in Nebraska politics. Brother Charlie was denied the nomination for governor which he wanted from the democrats and Brother Bill turned up as tail-ender on the ticket ftor delegates to the fit. Louis convention. And. as a means of nibbing it. in, Henry Ford, who stands for the Bryan policy in pa* I li ;m. was a drawing card iri the repuo iicari primaries held at the same time. Two polite ai sensations that were sprung iri the State of I'tah lately have brought consternation to the demo< rates. Mr. X. L. Morris, a dele gate to the progressive state conven tion, startled the delegates with the statement that so far as fundamental I principles were concerned, the repub ' I leans and progressives stood on con moo ground. He returned to the re publican camp and was accompanied ' by many other members of the pro gressive party. He was elected a dele gate to the republican judicial conven tion. in which he participated. _ The other sensation was the an nouncement of former State Senator Bamberger, a life long democrat, that ! he is not only opposed to the removal of the larilT on sugar but recognizes ! the need rtf a tariff "on more things j than one to protect the farmers, manu facturers, and workingmen of this country.” Senator Bambeyger is a prominent business man in l.'tah, and was assured of the democratic nomina tion for the United Statets senate if he would accept it. He declined, evi dently because he was no longer in sympathy ith the policy of his party. GRAND VIEW NEWS. Dirt you get. your May basket? I have mine.

PROCLAMATION. Whereas the Mayor and City Council upon an inspection of the streets and alleys of Loup City, find that many of our respected citizens have been dumping refuse, ashes, manure and other unsanitary substances into the streets and alleys of this city, con trary to the public health and laws. Therefore relying upon the public spirit of its said citizens and that they will co-operate in an endeavor to help clean up and beautify the city, the council lias heretofore designated May 10th. 1916, as annual clean up day/ and requests that all those wrho have dumped such refuse upon the alleys or streets of this city, remove same on said date, and also clean up all yards and plots of ground from unsightly or unsanitary matter. The citizens are further requested to entirely refrain from the dumping of any refuse of any nature whatever into any street or alley hereafter, the same being contrary to the law and a public nuisance. In case this proclamation is not complied with and such refuse re moved from said streets and alleys not later than by May 15th, 1916. the city authorities will then take steps to remove such refuse from said streets and alleys and assess the ex pense thereof, together with proper legal penalty, against those who have violated said laws. The mayor and council rely upon the friendly co-operation of the citi zens in thus cleaning up the city. R. H. MATHEW, Mayor. The Disosour was a prehistoric ani mal of great size that was weighted down by its own hide of armor. The advocates of a tremendous standing army have been likened to it. The Dodo is a bird that can't fight, can't fly, can’t run, can't protect its own or itself. The name of Dodo has been hung onto people who want no army, who do not believe in preparedness of any nature, who would turn the other check and take another whack. Both extremes appear to us to be even more than unwise. They appear to be even foolish, the one inviting ar rogance and the other courting promrt disaster. Far better would it .he to 'ia\ e a navy capable of protecting the vulnerable points of our coast, an t tny of 200.000 or 25(1.000, and a Na ii nal Guard in the different states ex panded !o approximately a million r.en under federal supervision and re moved from political interference or Relation. Such a course would prac tically insure immunity from foreign invasion, or at least the ability to wage a successful war in the event of attack, and at the same time would keep the expense of maintaining otir' armed forces down to the minimum, j Scalds, Galls, Scratches, Sores, Hurts,; Screw Worms. To make the best cure for such I troubles, buy a pint of linseed oil. If you prefer a healing oil, or a pound of hog lard or vaseline if you want a salve aud add a 50 cent bottle of Farris Healing Remedy. It simply can’t be beat by any salve or liniment made. And see what you get—a full, pint for not over GO cents. Farris Healing Remedy is sold by us on the Money Back Plan.—J. J. Slominski. CARD OF THANKS.
