Tn. wlnn.baao and H, Beans.

Congressman ]. P. Latta of Nebraska
demands that the Winnebago Indians
Of bis state be given back the priv,
lege Of chewing mescal beans which
the government ruthlessly deprived
them Of some years ago.
The megcal bean grows down on the
Mexican border, and the Indian ex.
perts say that its narcotic quality
makes 1t as dangerous to the noble
red men as whisky, chloral. morphine
or any other drug.
The noble red men, however, indig-
AaAtly deny the allegation, and declare
that It IL part of the Winnebago re-
ligiOn to chew those beans and thus
hold direct communication with the
Great Spirit.
Congressman Latta, occupying a mid
die ground upon the question, argues
that they are not so bad, and that the
Winnebago Indians were just as well
behaved when they had the habit az
they are now, when paternal govern
ment forbids 1t.

CITY RUNS A PUBLIC BAKERY
Budapest to Have Plant Capable Of
Producing $4,000 Pounds Of
Bread Daily.

The city Of Budapest in order tc
furnish good bread to the public at q
cheap price has decided to establish q
municipal bakery capable of produc
ing $4,000 pounds Of bread daily.
This viii be a public enterprise and
IL meant by competition to compel the
general production of bread equally
good and equally cheap-prices being
based upon the actual price OF wheat
and flour-as that furnished By the
municipality.
This bakery will be model one.
Modern machinery will be used and
all Immediate contact by the workmen
with the bread will be avoided. Be.
sides this the burgomaster says, the
bakery by the wholesale purchase of
hour and other articles of production
VIII tend to reduce the price.
The expense Of building this munic-
ipal bakery will be $125,0OO, not In
GLIDING the value of the site. The
rooms for preparing the dough, the
baking rooms and the bread maya
zines are all spacious and well lighted.
Near by are two groups Of buildingS
one containing the engine house, the
electrical plant and places for storing
and preparing potatoes, the Hun
garian public being fond of bread
made Of wheat mixed with potatoes,
and the other consisting of stables
and coach houses.
The bread will be sold partly in spe-
cial shops belonging to the municipal
ity and partly by private provision
merchants at a price fixed by the
municipality.

HUMAN BODY AS TELEPHONE
German Scientist Sees Great Poaslblll,
ties In Experiments He Haa
Been conduetlnS,

The human telephone is at once
Tie newest and the oldest form of tele.
phOny. Some years ago it was shown
that 1t was possible to charge the hu-
man body with tremendously high
alternating currents Of electricity. And
It Is well RawR that the body has
been USED ~ an electric battery for
many experiments.
It is now suggested BY one Or. Die
der Of Steglits that by charging the
body with these rapidly alternating
impulses the drum of the ear can be
made to respond to their action and
Vibrate 80 as to hear the current. The
sar would then become kind of tele-
phone disk and would be aware Of
changes in the intensity Of the cur.
rent. 1t is necessary simply to press
against the ear the outer metallic
coating Of a Leyden Jar whose inner
coating is connected with one pole Of
IN induction coil and to grasp the op-
posite pole with one hand.
Rieder thinks It Is not impossible to
perfect this arrangement SO that 1t
will transmit speech telephonically.
Il Is thought that deaf people might
be- sensitive to the device. AS DR..
Rieder finds that there Is a feeling Of
oppression in the ear for several
hours after such experiments, the au-
ditive organs must DO acted upon in
quite a different way from that Of an
ordinary telephone.

RESUBMIssIoN
ISSUE IN IOWA



tain telephones at their stations and
bulletin boards showing arrival and
departure of trains.
The opponents of the resubmisson
amendment have raised an important
point IN the discussion of that ques-
ton. 1t has been claimed by those who
appeared before the committee urging
the passage of the resolution that It
was the duty of the legislature to give
me people an opportunity to vote up,
on any question they desired. The
point is now made that the language
OF that part of the constitution which
refers to the amendment, provides
that any amendment may be proposed
IN either house, and If agreed to" by
majority of the members. it shall
be referred to the next general as
sembly and if agreed to" by ma
Jorlty of that general assembly, it shall
be submitted to the people. The
point raised is that the use of the
words agrees to- puts the respon-
sibility for the initiative entirely with
the legislature, making it the duty
OF the members to vote their personal
sentiment on the subject without ref
erence to anything else. 1t is claimed
with apparent good reason that a
large majority of the members of the
senate though favoring temperance,
are not in favor of the resubmission
amendment at this time 1t is said
that majority of them favor the en-
actment of law enforcement measures,
and will be satisfied with such action
rather than to have the amendment
resubmitted and thus drag the liquor
question into politics again
Attention is also called to the fact
that in 1910 the law provides that the
question OF calling constitutional
convention for the purpose of revis-
ing the constitution of the state must
be submitted to the people. This, it
is said, will give the people an oppor-
tunity to- take the initiative in revis-
ing constitution and thus secure what
they desire without any other legisla-
ton, provide majority of the people
want the constitutional amendment.

God warns men everywhere. Go back
to the beginning of the race. We find
that Gods dealings with the human
race has been one of continuous
warnings and entreaties in proof of
which the speaker referred to Sinia

These penetrating and gracious
words demand immediate attention.
Indifference of God is the sin of the
age. We find this Indifference among
all classes. Parents, business men,
