Hundreds of our friends are talk ing of migrating to the Argen tine, the home of true democ racy. And if the stock market isn't crashing yet, it's teetering. It would be well for the think ing student to ask why? to all this. In fact ... it would be well for the Nebraska student to ask why?

It far sur passes any shortage this nation has ever had. I write in deadly seriousness, that we now have a critical surplus. But what a sur plus! It is a surplus of a certain specie unknown for yea, these many years. The phrase I have postponed writing for heartfelt reasons herein follows: Wednesday morning, the RE PUBLICANS swept the country!

Both these rallying cries can well cause a trend that will once again put this glorious country on its feet, to use a portion of an ob scure governor's address in the misguided state of New York. Said phrase was used without disturbing that pretty moustache, too. The only other bright spot which we can see is that now we can become a vociferous minor ity.
