Omaha jumped from sixth to third place in wheat receipts, from sixth to fifth in oat receipts. Omaha maintains its position ns the second corn maiket, with a much larger increase than any other largo market. FOR UMTED STATES SENATE In May 1917 thcic was over $5 be tween the wheat cost and the price of a ban el of flour. This year theie is less than 70 cents between the two. And the kicker who kicked about Hoover and his pi ice contiol is still on the job. K'-ep in mind that the "Star Spang led Banner" is the national anthem. Theie is no other. Many aie unn waie of this and rise to their feet or lcmovo their hat when other patriotic mu&ic is rondeted in public assemblies. Wo have seen this occur luno in Red Cloud. It is not lerniiicd and is a display of more patriotic zeal than knowledge. The distiibution of the entiio sugar output of the countiy has been taken over by the Food Administration and will be diiectcd through the Sugar Equalization Board, which is headed by Hcibcit Hoover, United States Food Administrator. The Board is capitalized for $5,000,000 and is em powered to buy and sell any and all sugar. Through this means the Food Administration hopes to keep the price of sugar down to the consumer.

American's exports to the allies and neutral nation have reached enormous amounts in the last year. Herbert Hoover, in a summary of the accom plishments to President Wilson, saysV "The shipments of meats and fats to the Allies in 1917 amounted to 2,166, 500,000 pounds; in 1918, 3,011,100,000 pounds, an increase of 844,600,000 pounds. For the same periods the shipments of cereals and cereal pro ducts weie 259,900,000 bushels as against 340,800,000 bushels, a gain of 80,900,00 bushels. "These greatly in cicascd shipments have been made possible through two activities the BTeai conscrvuuon oi xne American people and the increased production by the farmers.

MOREHEAP New Idea of Primitive Man. A new Idea of primitive man was put forward by an Irish professor re cently, lie slates that the diieet an cestors of primitive man never went on all-fours, had lived in trees, and, by climbing up and down the trunks, cultivated the upright habit of the hu man nice, lie points out that the fore limb was never used only as a sup port for the body. It seems qulto credible, however, that they may have, gone on three legs, using one ns a hand when required, nnd this might account for the general use of tho right hand In man. ' J. L.

W. STEVENS The Live Wire -The Chief The Passing of Autocracy Piobably there is little in the life of today that comes closer to the heaits and homes of Webster county than news of tho great allied defense and thrusts in the war zone. The sons of our citizens arc in it; the safety of our homes depends on it; the prayers of our people are for it; in our hearts and our souls we are with it. It is a battle striving for peace. It is a war by which wars shall cease. History is being made so lapidly that the lushing daily papers confess inability to give up-to-the-minute re-coids. G(eat, black and red headlines tell us the "Gorman Drive is a Failuio," "Huns Uesist Desperately Hut In Vain;1' "Ameiicans at tho Heels of a Fleeing Foe," "Enemy Routed, Killed and Captuicd by Thousands." And many moie in various degrees and modifications until tho enthusiastic and patriotic render is haully to be blamed for thinking that tho war will be ended in a short time. Details nro of dating achievements; patriotic praise.) ; exploits of Amer ican, Fionch and English soldieiy nil of which inspire confidence and at the same time confuse cool conclu sions. Tho ciux of it all is that the allies have parried a dnnecrous onomv drive; have at last gained tho upper hand; havo assumed the offensive, and nro pei haps fighting the greatest battle of the world. It does not follow that the end is in sight. It docs not follow that tho road to Berlin is open. Tho Cential Powers will fiuht los- perately until utterly crushed. And until tins is accomplished there must bo no relaxing. Keep tho Hun on tho run I Reverses mny occur, aro almost cer tain to occur. Hear in mind, however, tho set-backs of the Allies aro tem porary; the German losses are irre parable. Ameiica has fresh man-power and almost unlimited supplies to diaw on; four years drain on German resources has them well-nicht exhausted. Thov cannot keep up with tho present rate of los3. Which means thnt tho doom of Germany is scaled. This general break, cannot bo cx pected immediately. Rut it is coming, coming rapidly.
