Constable Forgets Business
Because New Boy Arrives
If anxious plaintiffs in Justice of
the Peace Collins' court became
vexed because Constable, George
McBride failed to wield a wicked
lasso over any defendants yesterday
there's a reason.
If the woolly and wild west cowboy-constable
neglected other duties
yesterday there's a reason.
If Justice Collins smiles yester
day there's a reason.
For Constable McBride is happier
than a chimpanzee with the mumps.
A new aspirant to his position said
"hello" to the world Sunday. His
name and peditrree follows: George
Gordon McBride, jr. Weighs liin?
pounds, has blue eyes, four hairs
and a hammer-lock hold. Hence all
the reason for the constable's hap
piness. Real Estate Transfers

Republicans Say
Publicity Association Declares
Department of Justice Has
Not Distinguished Itself
In Catching Radicals.
Chicago TrUmne-Omalia Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, Sept.- 27. That At
torney General Falmer's drive to rid
the country of anarchists was a fiz
zle and that the attitude of the pres
ident in the Mooney case lent en
couragement to the elements re
sponsible for the New York bomb
outrage, are assertions contained in
a statement issued by the Republican
Publicity association last night.
"Immediately following, the ex
plosion in Wall street. New York."
says the association, "an official of
the Department of Justice took oc
casion to call public attention to the
fact that the department's special
corps of investigators of red activi
ties had been dissolved on the pre
ceding day. The obvious inference
to be drawn was that in order to be
safe against danger of bombing out
rapes, the Department of. Justice
must be provided with a large force
of agents for the discovery of bomb
plots.
"As a matter of fact, the depart
ment has not distinguished itself by
success in running down men guilty
of violence. It was only after de
nunciation in congress that the de
partment got under, way in its ef
forts to check red activities. Even
then the methods of the department
were so dilatory as to arouse the
criticism of the Department of Ln
bor, which charged that men were
arrested and kept imprisoned with
out being brought promptly to trial.
The conviction and imprisonment of
anarchists has not been a marked
achievement of the Palmer regime.
"But the wholesale slaughter in
New York city has served to recall
the fact that the democratic admin
istration gave its moral support to
a man convicted of complicity in
another and even more dastardly
bombing outrage in. San Francisco.
Thomas J, Mooney, an acknowl
edged advocate of violence, was
found guilty of participation in the
bombing of a preparedness parade
in 1916, when about a dozen persons
were killed and scores injured. The
New York murderer was apparently
actuated by a desire to get revenge
on a few individuals the Mooney
conspirators were aiming directjy at
the government of the United States,
for they were endeavoring to intimi
date all people who advocated pre
paration for defense of America
against its enemies.
"President Wilson repeatedly in
terceded with the .governor of Cali
fornia to commute the sentence,
which he finally did, when President
Wilson declared that the execution
of Mooney would embarrass the
government in its negotiations with
certain other countries presumbaly
the new government of Russia."

thrown through the wind shield. The
car took fire and was destroyed.
Several cattle and horses were killed
when lightning, struck a barn and
caused its burning. Many cattle
were found dead today in the pas

lightning. Corn stalks and trees
were stripped of foliage. The heavi

three months ago to aid in the es

justice at The Hague" conference, re

Mrs. Root.
"The nature of my mission
abroad," Mr. Root said, "prohibits
me from making any speeches or
giving any interviews in Europe and
that rule still applies."
Mr. Root would not say if he
would take any active part it the
presidential campaign.
The steamship Rotterdam was
compelled to remain near Sandy
Hook the better part of two days
because of the fog, and when Mr.
Root was asked if he felt nervous,

Houston Against
Granting Credit
To Hold Produce
Secretary of Treasury Con
demns Proposals to With
hold Goods From Market
For Higher Prices.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, Sept. 27. Secretary
of the Treasury Houston asserted
today that he is unalterably opposed
to extension of credit to enable pro
ducers to withhold heir goods from
he market until higher prices can be
obtained. Agricultural interests,
notably the southern cotton planters
and western stockmen, have been
seeking such extensions of credit
through the federal reserve board.
"I am in favor," said Secretary
Houston, "of every legitimate effor:
to promote the orderly marketing of
all commodities, but the government
cannot be a party to an undertaking
to hold commodities off the market
to enable the owners artificially, for
.speculative purposes, to maintain
war prices or higher than war prices.
"As a matter of fact, the banks of
the country during the last 12
months have been extending large
credits to meet the demands from
industry and agriculture. Since Au
gust, 1919, the loans and investments
of about 800 reporting member banks
increased over $2,500,000,000. As
these reporting banks represent
about 40 per cent of the resources of
all the banks, it is estimated that the
total increase in loans and invest
ments since August, 1919, has been
over $5,500,000,000. Even from Jan
uary 23, 1920, when the increase in
discount rates went into effect, to
August 27, 1920, the loans of about
800 reoorting member banks, exclu
sive of loans secured by government!
obligations and other stocks ana
honds, increased about $1,250,000,000.
This would reflect a total increase of
commercial loans on all banks, it is
estimated, of perhaps $3,000,000,000.
Since the crop movement demands
came on the bills discounted and
purchased by the federal reserve
banks have increased at the rate of
about $50,000,000 a week, and the
federal reserve notes at the rate of
from $30,000,000 to $40,000,000 a
week. The increase in the volume of
federal reserve notes from January
23, 1920. to August 27, 1920, was
$360,000,000,"
Elevator at Paxton
Destroyed by Fire
Ogalalla, Neb., Sept. 27. (Special
Telegram.) Dust exploding in the
Peter Eddington elevator at Paxton,
Neb., containing 30,000 bushels of
wheat, started a fire which burned
the building to the ground. The loss
is estimated at $70,000, partly cov
ered by insurance.
The fire was discovered late in the
) afternoon and had gained consider
able headway, as none ot the em
ployes of the elevator had been
around the building since late Sat
urday night. Several loaded ca"rs
of grain on the sidetrack were moved
to a point of safety by citizens.

Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 27. A
"compound" divorce suit, naming
two husbands, was filed in the
Wyandotte county ' district court
by Mrs. Alice Wells Starling of
Kansas City, Kan.
According to the petition, Mrs.
Starling was married to Walter
J. Starling at Pueblo, Colo., Oc
tober 1, 1914. On March 14, 1914,
she was told, it is stated in the pe
tition, that her first husband,.
Frank Wells, had obtained a di
vorce. Believing this to be true,
she married Starling. They came
to Kansas City to live and were
happy until recently when Wells,
husband number one, and Starling
became acquainted. The two men
became fast friends, and it was
discovered that she never had been
legally divorced from Wells. The
two husbands evicted her from
the fact that it was her money
in her petition, notwithstanding
the fact that it was with her money
that the home was purchased. A
divorce from both is asked, also
