Headquarter reports show that only about 4,000,000 persons, have j subscribed so far, and this is only one fifth of the mbscribers it is hoped to enroll. Apparently only one in every 15 adults has bought bonds. Lfberty day, Friday, will provide one more high light in the campaign, and hundreds of communities are planning big parades and rallies. The third loan campaign apparently Is proceeding faster than the second, for when the second was half over. nly about ?800,000,000 had been sub scribed. Cities Are Slow. The outstanding fact so far is the liberal outpourings from rural dis trict, and the comparative slowness Nof big city communities. All the states which have .?one over the top and won honor flag are large ly rural. Montana, whose quota was $9,000, 000, has reported subscriptions of $14,147,000. North Dakota, witli a quota of $6,500,00, has reported more than $10,000,000. Indications are that South Dakota also has subscribed its quota of $22,000,000. Minnesota has contributed $38,900,000 exclusive of subscriptions from Minneapolis, St. Paul and Dulutli. whose pledges amount to .$37,500,000. Northern . Wisconsin and. northern Michigan have about $8,000,000 each. The Cleveland district, witli its banner list of 592 honor communities, has subscriptions of about $140,000, 000 including about $26,000,000 from Cleveland alone. Now After Individuals.

Kearney Plans to Turn Bond Coupons Into Stamps Kearney Neb April 21.-(Spcc.al , Tdegram.) Bond holders of Kearney are organizing a movement, which, if adopted nationally, will leave m the treasury of Lncle Sam millions of dollars in interest to be used bv him until after the war. The plan' is to have all owners of bonds take their interest coupons, when due and turn them into thrift stamps or war savings . certificates'." If this is done over the ' entire country, the interest on the first and second issue of the Liberty loan alone would give Uncle Sam an additional war work capital of more than $600,000,000. Several local big bond holders and numerous societies here have already declared their intention of so investing their interest, intscad of having the country meet this obligation.

THEIR ASPIRATIONS Latest Is Public Amo. ncemfcnt . of Edgar Howard That He Will Be Candidate for United States "enat'or. (From a Staff CoiT-.apondent.) Lincoln, April 21,-tSpecial.) Now that the ground hog has crawled out of winter quarters, politicians deem it safe to sprout their little boomlets. The latest is that of Lieutenant Governor Edgar Howard of Colum bus. Mr. Howard in a platform which principally states he is backing the president and going to1 back him to the limit, states he wants the demo cratic nomination lor the United States senate. Deputy State Treasurer Henry Beige, after some weeks of close figuring and a very close investiga tion of the heavens to see if there was any chance for a democrat to stay in the state house, unfurled his flag and set his boat afloat in a race for the democratic nomination for state treasurer this week. He ex pects to be a more successful office chaser than some other members of his family who have pursued the of ficial phantom and became lost in the political quagmire. State Superintendent Clemmons, who has been out of the office a short time on business coupled with a slight illness, is said to believe he is entitled to a second term. It is rumored that Miss Florer, one of his assistants, is being urged by her friends to get into the race for the same place. Of course this is probably under the supposition that Mr. Clemmons de cides not to be a candidate. Miss Florer has also been away and until ! the both of them return it will not be known what the arrangements -may be. GERMAN MUSIC TO BE CUT OUT OF THE PROGRAM I Lincoln, April 21.

In announcing his slate the mayor made the following statement: "I feel privileged at this time to recom mend seven men who will represent the entire citizenship of Omaha. They are men who are capable, efficient and well qualified to conduct the affairs of the municipality. I fought for seven years to obtain a home rule charter. The voters will elect a charter for Omaha and this charter will be entirely out of the hands of the city council. "1 am in favor of the strict enforce ment of the liquor laws, tne laws reg ulating the social evil and all other laws that tend to keep our city mor ally wholesome. But I do not favor closing base ball parks and theaters on Sunday. The working people of our city should have these innocent amusements on the day of their re creation.., As to nepotism, 1 defy any man to point to a single relative of mine who lias been on the city pay roll during the 12 years that I have been mayor. "I favor the strictest economy in the conduct of city affairs, and the best service that can be given the people. My record speaks for itself. Three Others Lawyers. "The opposition starts out with three lawyers who do not know any more about running city departments than a hog knows about Sunday. This is no time to experiment with theories of how a city should be governed. "Not a single man whom I have recommended has been asked to make any pledge, nor will he be asked to make one. f 'am recom mending them to the people of Omaha because I firmly believe that of the 14 nominees, the v best rep resent our city and will be best able to conduct its afTairs at this time when the municipal afTairs of every community should be conducted with the least friction and mistakes." Roy N. 'fowl, one of the six candi dates in an organization designed as as the "antis," was mentioned last week- as a probable member of the city hall combination, but that was reconsidered. Towl looked with strong disfavor on any indorsement from the city hall as he is already committed to a platform of principles to which Ed. T. Smith, W. G. Ure, J. Dean linger, Harry B.

A new political organization was launched Sunday afternoon in the as sembly room on the 16th floor of the City National bank building, where Francis A. Brogan presided over 100 attendants. A motion to vote on tentative in ducement was lost. Indorsements will be made at another meeting, probably on next Sunday afternoon. The purpose of the organization, as explained by the chairman, is to decide on a ticket of four, five or six oMhe 14 candidates without the aid or' consent of the candidates themselves. In that respect it will differ from the anti-administration organization of which W. F.

Army at 12 Years of Age, Gen eral David Stuart Gordon, Hero of the Battle of Gettysburg, Judge Samuel S Yoder, for 18 Years a Practicing Physician and Formerly Surgeon Major in tht Army, Also Tell How They Were Benefited by a Short Course qf This Remark able Product. Dr. James Francis .Sullivan and other physicians explain why Nuxated Iron helps to increase atrenRth and endurance and build up weak, nervous, run-down folks. "What every soldier most needs is tremendous 'stay there' strennth, power and endurance, with nerves of steel and blood of iron. To help produce this result there is nothinir in my experience which I have found so valuable as organic iron Nuxated Iron," says I)r. James Francis Sullivan. "I hav personally found it of such prcat value, as a tonic, strength and blood hullder"tlnt I believe if fleneral Gibson's ad vice were followed many of our fiKhtin? men would find it of Kreat benefit. In my opinion there is nolhinif better than or ganic iron Nuxated Iron for enriching the blood and helpinir increase htrcneth, Vncny and endurance." . General Horatio Gules Gibson says Nuxated Iron has brnuKbt bark to him in good measure that old buoyancy and energy that filled his veins in 1847 when he made his triumphant entry with General Scott into the City of Mexico. Another remarkable case is that of General David Stuart Gordon, noted Indian finhter and hero of the battle of Gettysburg. General Gordon says: "When I became badly run down tbkt year I found myself totally without the physical power to 'come back' as I had done in my youngct days. I tried different so-called 'tonics' without feeling any bet ter, but finally I heard of how physirlans were widely recom mending organic Iron to renew red blood and rebuild strength in worn-out bodies. As a result J started taking Nuxated Iron mid within a month it had roused my weakened vital forces and made me feel strong again, giving me endurance such as I never hoped to again possess." Another interesting rase is that of General John Lincoln Clem, who at the early age of 12 years was Sergeant in the I!. S. Army and the last veteran of the Civil War to remain on the II. S. Army active list. General Clem says: "I find in Nuxated General (Retired), the drummer boy of Shiloh, who entered the U. S. Army as a drummer boy at the see of eleven years. He was promoted to be Sergeant for gallantry at the battle of Chlca. manga when only 12 years old.
