Beginning with September 19th
Germany will float their soventh war
loan. We are of the opinion that with
such security as that country has to
offer ntjpresent that the bonds would
be but "mere scraps of paper".
Right on the trail of the glad tidings
that there will be a reduction in coal
prices comes the disquieting report
that beforo snow flics the country may
be up ngninst a coal famine, due to
the inability of the mine operators to
secure laborers and cars.
According to the historical summary
of frost occurances in various sections,
jast issued by the U.S weather Cureau
the first killing frost occurs on an aver
age of one year in two, as far south as
southern Nebraska, during the first
few days In October. Perhaps this is
tlie year, tncreiore tue uner 01 me sou
should govern himself accordingly.
The St. Francis, Kansas, Herald in
its last issue announces to its readers
that their fondest dream has now been
realized to the extent that they have
installed a S3200 model linotype and
extend an invitation to all their friends
and others, to call and inspect this
wonderful piece of machinery. We
are pleased to note the prosperity of
that ptllce, in view of the fact that the
Kansas pessimist continues to shout
that the 1017 crop has been almost en
tirely destroyed by drought.
Twenty two laborers were discharged
by the town counoil of Buhl, Minneso
ta because they refused to comply with
the order to take out citizenship papers
If more cities and employers would
follow the example set by their Min
nesota neighbors, in such matters,
our true American citizens would
then have the opportunity to secure
the employment which rightfully be;
lorfgs to them. If you can't sign up
with Uncle Sam you can't cxpeci him
to furnish you with the means with
which to obtain the necessities of life.

Mass Meeting Tomorrow
The registration of the patriotic
women of the county which was to
have been held on September 12th has
been postponed, the date of which will
be announced later. A mass meeting
of women is called for tomorrow after,
noon at 8 o'clock and all women are
requested to be at the court house at
that time Mrs. Nesbit who is a member
of the State Council of Defcnco will ad
dress the meeting taking for her sub
ject "Registration of Women".

They Have Come And Gone
Mr. Wm, P. Lewis mid his excellent
company of theatrical artists have
closed their nnmml week's engagemei t
In our city. Thoy played under can
vas on South Webster street nnd as
heretofore wcro greeted by a large ntid
appreciative audience each evening.
Ihis season they arc traveling by
auto, four huge Reo trucks being used
to transport their theatre and para
phnnnlia from otic town to another.
The opening play, "The Shoplifters"
drew a capacity house, it being one of
tholr strongest dramas.
Tuesday night they presented "An
Editor's Romance," a piny that com
manded the uudlvided attention of the
audience from the time of the raising
of the curtain, for the first act, until
the editor realized that his fondest
dream really came true. On this even
ing Mr. Lewis displayed his true gen
erous and patriotic spirit by admitting
free all of tho boys who registered on
June Stb.
The bill on Wednesday night, "By
Order of the Court," was one that met
with the approval of everyone present.
Tragedy and comedywere intermingled
to such a fine degree that ono was fair
ly rushed out of a peal of laughter in.
to a vale of tears.
Thursday night Mr. Lewis presented
"Passion's Slaves." In this strong
play, part of the time the villlan hold
the upper hand but In the end love and
justice triumphed over evil.
Friday night tho feature bill of the
entire week was given. "The Net," a
story of the manipulation of the Chi
cago stock market. Special scenery
was used for this play and on this even
ing the citizens of this community wit
nessed a real metropolitan performan
ce. Saturday matinee, "Snooky Ookums"
was played for tho special benefit of
those who enjoyed real comedy and a
good laugh.
Tho closing number of the week,
Saturday night, "The Maid of theMys
tic Mine," was a play that will be re
membered by everyone present. It
was a refined three act western drama
and not of the blood-chilling variety
usually given.
There were no long weary moments
of waiting while the stage was being
cleared for the next act, as brand new
specialties were introduced between
acts, on each evening, and that they
wore well received by the audience
was evidenced by the long and loud
applause.
During the many seasons that Mr.
Lewis and his company have played
in our city they have given us attrac
tions far superior to those usually wit
nessed under canvas, or even" in an
opera bouse and when printer's ink
and paper conveys to us the tidings
that "Lewis is Coming" every one
looks forward to a week of real high
class entertainment.
The only regrets that we have heard
expressed regarding this company is
that they could not remain with us an
other week.
Their scene of action for this week
Is Guide Rock, and without a doubt
the company will make as pleasing
and lasting impression there as they
hav in this city.
Street Car Again in Operation
The builders of tho railroad that
united the east with the west may have
experienced their own difficulties In
battling with the Red Skins and the
elements but considering the amount
of territory they covered they did not
have anything on our city rail magnate
who on last Sunday reconstructed our
street railway system, neverthe ess the
task was completed ere the clock in
the tower of the Union Station pro
claimed the midnight hour.
As we were not prescut at either the

night, we cannot, with due respect for
truth, state which of the two was tho
most solemn ceremony.
At any rate it caused many heated
arguments among our citizens, one of
which became so interesting that two

Consulting engineer Sturtevnnt of
Uoldrcdge, employed by the Riverton
Electric Light nnd Power Company
was in this city Monday nfternoon and
met with the members of tho counoil
to take up the matter of the munici
