Today Siamese Finance. Fighting Is Respectable. Innocent Hays and Harvey. Rather Fiddle Than Burn. ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ Stock speculators were nervous and shaky again yesterday. Eng land is worried about the conti nent, and our speculators are worrying about England. Finan ciers of all nations are fastened together like Siamese twins. A lady asks why the Dempsey Firpo fight is allowed. “Once,” says she, “prize fighters had to hide away in barns, like dog fighters. Now they have the police to keep order for them while they knock each other down. How can you ex plain that?” Easily. A big prize fight now is worth $2,000,000 to the promoters. That makes it RESPECTABLE. The owner of a little gambling house must hide away. The own ers of a stock or produce ex change, where they bet millions, is respectable and protected. We have our weaknesses in this coun try, but we do show respect for anything above 1,000,000. London cables a rumor that the king of Spain has been assassinat ed. Probably not true. Alfonso’s courage and the respect it inspires are the beet protection. Yet his life isn't a good risk. Revolution broke out in Cata lonia, which is to Spain what Ire land was to England for hundreds of years, a hotbed of hatred and bitterness. Plora, plora, Catalonia is the Spanish version of the ‘‘Wearing of the green.” There can be no permanent peace in Spain until the Catalonians are satisfied. The latest definite news from Spain shows that King Alfonso can turn corners quickly. He has invited the leader of the rebels to form his own ministry, since the rebels don’t like the king’s cabinet. No use fighting the army. George Haney lands n Eng land, with Will Hays on ihe same boat. Both young gentlemen deny that they have any interest in poli tics. Mr. Hays is on a vacation. He derided to take it about six hours before Harvey’s hoat sailed. These innocent young men will iearn with amazement that repub lican politicians accuse them of mapping out a Coolidge campaign. Harvey is expected to he the Cool idge secretary of state, taking the place of Mr. Hughes, who, the politicians say, “got President Harding in wrong on the world court.” .. . Pierpont Noyes tells Unitarians at Yale that the United States is a selfish nation. The world's salva tion will be found only when the United States resumes the world leadership. The United States may be self ish, but tt isn’t robbing or murder ing anybody. And it never held the world leadership. It paid the bills while Europe laughed. Walter Leaf, a London banker, arrives in America to tell us that the United States fiddles as Eu rope burns. These criticisms are painful, but at least, unlike Nero, wt did not start the fire. We arc bound to tell Mr. Leaf of London that if we must either fiddle or burn, we wbuld rather fiddle. American school children saved $>,500 in the last school year. The * money is nothing, the saving habit is everything. To teach children that poverty is slavery and can be avoided by reasonable saving, is the first duty ' of parents. The second duty is to teach children that after thev have saved, they must help others-. The innocent suffer with the guilty. Hundreds of millions of British oysters are dead because after the war the government dumped into the water materials for explosives that killed the oys ters and ruined fishermen. Our government dumped far out at sea enough deadly chemicals to destroy every city in Europe, so the scientists say. Heaven only knows what they may have done to whales, sharks, etc. Cuno, former chancellor of Ger many, arrived here yesterday. His mood was blue and pessimistic. He says there won’t be any revolu tion in Germany, and there is no allianca between Germany and Russia. Good news for France, if Cuno is correctly informed. One hundred and fifty thousand dead have actually been counted in Tokio and the surrounding area. Five thousand million dollars is the money cost of the earthquake. That earthquake has only just died out, after more than a thou sand shocks following the great catastrophe. There has never been such a disaster in all recorded his tory, outside of the three sisters, War, Plague and Famine. (Copyright, 1923.)

Good Yield of Corn Is Expected Near Callaway •Jallaway, Neb., Rept. 1«.—Corn hulking will rorrunwicp hern In about tw6 weeks. Corn will be *• good crop. ISstlmate* of the yield are from 30 to 60 bushel* an acre. Custer County to Have Many Fall Farm Sales Callaway, Nrb., Sept. 10.- An 'in u*ually large number of farm sale* will bo bold In this part of Custer county this fall. Prbes of livestock are good. ** • Potato Crop Is Reported Large at Hemingford Brisk Demand for Bliss Tri umphs—Flax Brings Good Price—Building Activity Shown. Hemingford, Neb., Sept. 16.—Small grain threshing continues with the average yield of wheat about 20 bush els, bringing 86 cents for milling wheat and 60 cents for durum. Bar ley Is averaging 40 bushels and the elevators are about 40 cents. Oats are averaging 50 bushels and are bringing 30 cents. About two-thirds of the corn Is out of danger of frost. The acreage of corn Is greatly In creased, there being about 12,000 acres of corn In the county. Mature corn will bring about 60 cents here and all will he fed to livestock. Near ly all of the rye, barley and oats will be fed here. There Is no mill in the county, hence practically all of the wheat will be exported. There will be very little of the wheat held, most of it being marketed frotp the machines. The quality of the table stock po tatoes Is not high, these being In jured by the early blight and other causes. The table stock potatoes are selling now for between 50 to 60 cents a bushel sacked and are running about 12 per cent under grade one, the tolerance being about 6 per cent, making 18 per cent below grade. An unusual demand Is springing up for Bliss Triumphs. One buyer from Alabama states his requirements are 1100 cars. There was never such good quality in the Bliss Triumph pota toes as there will be this year as the season has been favorable for the growth of late planted potatoes. There Is quite an acreage of flax In the county and this Is making a jblg crop and commanding a good price. Owing to the large acreage there is probably more corn In the county this year than has been grown here since it was first settled. Some farmers are talking of buying corn shellers. Box Butte farmers have been practicing diversified farming the last ten years and they have more than 20 different kinds of products to sell. t In the country there have been a dozen new farm houses built and a large number of barns and granaries. Last spring the alfalfa acreage was more than doubled and enough alfalfa fields will be used for seed this year, so that there will be considerable al falfa seed for shipment after provid ing for next spring's seeding. Cos sack alfalfa is raised by several farmers for seed. ‘The county commissioners have worked the road grading outfits full capacity this summer. They have built many miles of excellent roads out Into the farming districts. A large number of trucks are operating hauling In the grain direct from the machines. The threshing will be over this week and potato harvest will begin about September 20. Indians from the Sioux reservation are coining In and have an encamp ment here ready to do their usual work in the potato harvest. Chief F’atrick Bittera ts in charge, and he estimates by the 20th that there will be 300 Indiana ready for work. Last year, owing to the dry weath er In the fall, practically no grain was put out in this territory. This year a considerable acreage of Kan red wheat and Rosen rye are being sowed as moisture conditions are fa vorable. Wymore Feed Store and Tailor Shop Burn — Special Diipatch to The Omaha Bee.

War Heroes to Attend Reunion of Eightv-Eighth Division Here Two Men Who Repulsed^At lack by 40 Germans Will Meet Army Buddies Again in Omaha. One of the thrilling personal ex ploits of wartime days is recalled by the visit of two Dakota heroes to the reunion of the Eighty-eighth division to be held In Omaha September 28 to 30. The two are Hans Johnson. Menno, S. D., and his comrade, Harold Crosby, of Rolla, N. D. Caught by a block barrage In an isolated outpost on a sector near Altklrch, Alsace, Johnson and Crosby together boat off an attack by 40 Germans, although their rifles were Jammed, both were wounded, and Crosby lost a hand. Hurl Hand Grenades. The attack was made October 31, 1918. Johnson, then a corporal In charge of the outpost, came running out of his dugout when the enemy laid down a barrage around them, and artived at the outpost In time to see the Germans firing rifles and throwing hand grenades as they at tacked the post. Johnson opened up at once with an automatic rifle. A bomb bursting near at hand covered the rifle and Jammed It. Johnson took the rifle apart with one hand and cleaned It. meanwhile hurling hand grenades with the other hand. The feat demands no little dexterity and coolness, as any one can testify who recalls the proc ess of pulling the pins out of the grenades and the speed with which th» bomb must be disposed of after wards. Bomb Blows Off Hand. Private Crosby near at hand was also fighting hard with another auto matic. A bomb took off his hand, but he continued to do execution with the rifle in spite of this and other wounds. Finally the Germans overpowered him, kicked, clubbed and beat him into insensibility. But Johnson’s tw’o-handed rain of bullets and grenades finally gave the attackers enough, and they retired, carrying off three dead and several wounded with them. Johnson and Crosby both received citations for bravery, annd were later decorated. They belonged to the Company X of the Three Hundred Fifty-second in fantry, 88th division.
