If China is awakening, are the vest.
ern nations awakening to China? DR..
Arthur H.. Smith, the well-known
American missionary, shows In an in
teresting book that this country has
not followed it's missionaries and its
ministers of famine relief with any
deep intellectual or even commercial
understanding of China. 1t is strange
that this nation, at once mercantile
and generous, should have made SO
little effort to understand the Chinese
on their own soil, and should have
failed to heed the plain statement of
Ii Hung-Chang that IF Americans
want the trade of China they must
come after it." Our attitude toward
China has been like our attitude
toward South America. American con
suls have been preaching to us for
years to learn the countries to which
we ship our goods. Yet no traders are
so little at home as are Americans in
countries across the seas.

HOW IS YOUR STOMACH
Easy Way to Strengthen 1t and Get
Well.

A good digestive system, n that
acts so that you do not know that you
have a stomach, is Gods birthright to
every man-to every woman.
II digestion is weak, If food turns
into gas, If you suffer after eating, II
you are sleepless, and out OF
sorts-then the stomach is diseased
and prompt action should be taken.
w. A. Ennis, a ~well-known builder
in Syracuse, tells an easy way to
strengthen the stomach and get well
when he writes: "Mi-o-na Stomach
Tablets have done more for me in one
week than all the doctors the two
yearsI was under their car Thanks
to Mi-o-na, I can work once more, the
first time in over a year..
1t is an easy thing to strengthen the
stomach and cure indigestion by using
Mi-o-na. Get a 50-cent box from the
Eggleston Drug company with its guar
antee to refund the money unless the
remedy does all that Is claimed for it.
Although stocks are low, there IL
small likelihood that the new Wander
bilt heir will have to go barefoot for
lack Of the price of shoes.

Washington, d. c., May 27.-Secre-

my Dear Mr.. Burrows sincerely
think that it would greatly tend to the
absence Of corruption in politics II
the expenditures for nominations and
elections of all candidates and all con

made by political committees could be
made public, both in respect to state
and national politics. For that reason

Mr.. Bryan's telegram to MIR. Taft
which called forth this reply to the

REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET.
ONE MILLION ACRES MORE.

The passage OF the Warren amend
ment gives Wyoming one million acres
more Of Carey land. This is a matter
of the greatest Importance to the state
The first million acres is almost ex-
hausted and the second will come In
just right to make 1t u%nnecessary for
those who have the inclination to de-
velop Wyoming lands to go to other
states. This law is proving of greater
benefit to Wyoming than the great
reclamation act. There is more land
being developed under it at the pres.
n time than is included In the gov
eminent projects and it is more widely
distributed throughout the state.
In Big Horn county there are sew
eral projects under way, aggregating
approximately 400. 900 acres. In Lara.
mic county there is an extension of the
Wheatland area under this law amount.
ing to about 1000 acres. Over in
Sweetwater county something like 50,-
600 acres are being reclaimed. Car
bon county has a segregation on the
upper Platte. Last week there was a
segregation in Albany county Of some
thing over $4,000 acres. In Converse
county 10000 acres along the LaPrele
are being developed. There are other
projects in other sections of the state.
This law warrants men OF moderate
means uniting for the purpose of build
Ing storage reservoirs, canals and
bitches. Projects OF small area are
sometimes not only feasible, but very
profitable. Probably there are scores
of places throughout the state where
capital may in future find profitable
investment in this WORK
If the wyoming delegation had done
no other work in this congress than
to secure the passage of the amend,
ment giving Wyoming another million
acres, their time would have been of
exceeding great value to the state.

Pythian Memorial Day.

81 would call the attention of grand
chancellors to section 1863 of the su.
preme statutes, setting apart and es-
tablishing the Tuesday following the
second Sunday in June of each year
as the Memorial day Of the order OF
knights Of Pythias, and authorizing
and requesting all bodies of the order
to meet in their respective localities
upon said day for the purpose of en-
gaging in such services and exercises
as may be appropriate to the occasion"
writes Supreme Chancellor Charles A.
Barnes in the Pythian Bulletin for
April. IF circumstances render I'M
desirable the day thus designated,
which will be June 10th this year, a
different day may be selected, but /
earnestly hope that every subordinate
lodge in the supreme domain will,
sometime during the month of June,
pay this tribute to its honored dead"

OMAHA THEATER
GETS NEW INVENTION.

Manager johnson of the Burwood
theater spent the last two days in Chi
cago arranging for the installation in
the Burwood theater of the most re-
cent discovery in the moving picture
line, the synchroscope, which in plain
language means that the delicate and
intricate apparatus is a singing-talkng
moving picture machine, says the Om-
aha Bee. 1t not only shows the NOV
ing pictures, but at the same time 1t re-
produces all the sounds, such as music,
dancing, talking, etc, il perfect unison
with the moving pictures. The ma
chine was made in Berlin, Germany,
and is absolutely perfect. American
inventors have worked for years on
just such an idea, but the Germans
have perfected their apparatus. while
the American apparatus is still far
from q success.

THE SMALL SAVINGS ACCOUNT,

Germany, Australia, New Zealand,
Switzerland, Norway and Denmark
beat us by a good margin in he mat
ter of average amount Of savings-bank
deposits per inhabitant.
Banking methods in the various
countries differ, of course, but there
il at all times much money afloat In
this country that might be attracted
into banks and so augment the coun-
try's available cash capital.
That three states-New York, Mass
achuse;ts and Connecticut-hold about
two-th;rds Of all the savings deposits
of the United States is well known.
Chicago has about sixty per cent OF
New York's population, something ov-
err half as many industrial employees
and over nalf as great an annual wage
disbursement, but her savings deposits
are only one-eighth of those OF the
eastern metropolis.
In all the south and between the
Mississippi river and the Pacific coast
excepting Iowa) savings deposits are
so small as to be nearly negligible.
Here, 1t seems to use, is a rather
promising field. OF late. more atten-
ton has been given to it. The num-
Der of banks actively and intelligently
seeking savings deposits increases.
But there are still great undeveloped
possibilities. That the development
need not be left to the federal gov

DANGER IN DELAY
Kidney Diseases Are Too Dangerous

the movement grows, and as the i'm
preston gains in Congress that lndlf-
ference to the Presidents advice on
this subject will result in the country's
resources becoming bankrupt, there is
little doubt that each succeeding Con
gress will appropriate sum sutflclenl
to cover the needs of meritorious plans
for conservation in various parts of the
country. F..
To further impress Congress with
the growing Importance of definite
conservation policy, therefore, the
President has hit upon this third con-
ference. He has drawn into his plans
two countries whose boundaries. be-
cause they lap ours on the north AID
south. make it important that they CO.
operate in the scheme.
Pinchot Wise Choice.
In naming Clifford Pinchot, chief for
ester of the United States and chair
man of the national conservation COM
mission as his personal representa-
tive to convey invitations to the Gov
ernor General and Premier of Canada
and President Diaz of Mexico. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has chosen wisely. 1t
is doubtful if any man in the federal
service today could impress the heads
of these sister governments with the
importance of President Roosevelt's
plans as can Mr.. Pinehot. His espec-
ial fitness in this capacity has come
about as the result of years of study
of the kindred su' .ects of forest pres
ervation and the protection of stream
sources.
At the coming conservation congress
besides representatives of Canada and
Mexico, there are likely to be present
leading conservation advocates in this
country, including many of the gov
errors who participated in the former
gatherings. President Roosevelt be
| lieves the movement of sufficient i'm
/ portance to attract friends of conser-
walton from all parts of the world. II
/ the only tangible result is additional
publicity for the subject, without any
definite action by Canada and Mexico
/ toward the adoption of a conservation
plan. the President will feel amply re
paid. He realizes that in such a move
ment as this success is to be achieved
only by keeping everlastingly at it,
