A Prayer for Newspaper Men

o thou great source of truth and
knowledge, We remember before thee
the writer's of books, the newspaper
men. and all whose calling it is to
gather and winnow facts and to in
form the people. Grant them a de.
termined love for honest work and
a staunch hatred for making of lies,
lest they pervert the judgements of
Il nation and teach us to call light
darkness and darkness light. Suffer
them not to drug the mind of our
people with falsehood and prejudice.
Since the sanity and wisdom of a
nation are in their charge, may they
count it for shame to set the baser
passions of men on fire for the sake
of gain.
Grant them holiness to turn the un
welcome light on those who love the
darkness because their deeds are evil
Put into their hands the shining
sword of truth, and make them
worthy sons of the champions of the

ers of the National Association of
to-day. owing to the high prices
offered for the plumes of White Her
ons, Birds of Paradise, Humming-
birds, Albatrosses and similar species
in the European markets, these birds
have been slaughtered almost to the
point of extinction. On the other hand
thousands of the valuable insectiv-
erous wild birds and game birds of
Europe are shipped here as cage bird
and to make choice It'd bits in our
restaurants. Only by putting a stop
to the export and import of birds
can the nations of the earth hope to
retain their valuable bird
1t remains for the American people
to take the first step in this very
vital movement for the international
protection of our BIRDS.

Better Country Roads.

The county commissioners have
been spending a great deal of time
and money making the roads leading
into Lincoln better than they have
been in years. The results so far
achieved have more than repaid the
expenditure. The work thus far has
been confined to the leading thorough
fares, but the side roads will be at
tended to next. Not only have the
commissioners been making good
roads, but they have been individual
ly conducting a campaign among
farmers to keep them in good shape.
They have personally visited each
farmer along the roads, they have
improved and asked and urged him
to drag them after every rain. In
most cases they have consented, ten
ant farmers as we'll as resident own
ers. An example of the good re-
suits that come from dragging may
be observed in a journey over the o
street road from the city limits to
the Cass county line. This road is
decidedly hilly, but the washed out
places have been filled up and the
stretches made smooth until today

ROYALTY TO WE'D.
Prince Victor Napoleon and Princess
Clementine Of Belgium.

Brussels, Oct 26.-One of the most
romantic of royal courtships will have
its elimination next month when
Prince Victor Napoleon and Princess
Clementine OF Belgium are married.
The ceremony had been tentatively
set for today, but for reasons OF
state, the wedding was postponed un-
til November Now that the bans
have been published 1t is practically
certain that the much discussed al
lance will soon become a reality
It was a dozen years ago that the
eXiled head of the Bonaparte family
first met the youngest daughter OF
King Leopold. Gossip says 1t was a
case of love at first sight, and the
Prince was not slow in asking the
Belgian monarch for the hand of his
daughter He was met with flat re-
fusal, Leopold fearing that an ALI
ance with the house of Bonaparte
might offend the French government.
As n good business man, with an
eve for the main cnance, Leopold
was not one to risk anything which
might cause a loss of money The
Princess Clementine was twenty-six
when Prince Victor Napoleon first
asked for her hand. Now she is thir-
ty-elght, but she is still handsome,
and has the largest fortune Of any
continental princess. King Leopold
several times made arrangements for
marrying her TO princes of his own
selection. but Princess Clementine
steadfastly refused all such matrimo-
NAL advances and remained true to
her first love

Cheyenne, Okla, Oct. 25.-Western
Oklahoma never before perhaps was
quite so enthusiastic of its demon
strations in a political campaign as
it has become during this final tour
of this region by Lee Cruce, democrat
Is nominee for governor. FOR two
days the campaigning party has ira
versed the big highways of the short
grass country in automobiles, making
three towns a day, and enthusiasm
among the voters has increased with
the number of miles travelled.
The crowning event of the trip was
the reception given Mr.. Cruce upon
his arrival in Cheyenne this evening
at 7:30. After an informal dinner at
a hotel he entered the hall and began
his speech at $50. The audience
cheered to the echo when he arose to
speak after an eloquent introduction
by w. H. Mouser. county attorney of
Roger Mills county, and throughout
the speech the trend of his logical
and unanswerable argument was lib
orally, and occasionally vociferousIy,
punctured with applause. Fifteen
hundred enthusiastic men and women
we're in the audience, and they all
seemed TO be of one accord as regards
the issues of the campaign and the
democratic nominee.
Tonight Mr.. Cruce for the first time
took notice of the unfounded charge
sent broadcast over the state by the
republican campaign committee that
he, like McNeal, had signed appeal
bonds for railroads.

Des Moines. Iowa, Oct. 26.-,lf the

is due to Ewes hunger for an ap.

physician, DR.. Samuel Bailey, 10. dis
cover that Providence has provided
compensations, and that the fruit
which caused the fall of man may
now be a means of his regeneration.
Working along the theory that like
cures like, the doctor has discovered
that apples are cure for drunken
ness. Hundreds OF confirmed "souses
led astray by the seductiveness OF
the juice of the grape or the distilled
nectar of rye AMI corn, have taken
the apple cure and now find them
selves sober and respectable men,
loved and honored by all who know
them.
Organizations devoted TO temper
ance propaganda in various parts
of the country have been convinced
OF the usefulness of DR.. Bailey S
discovery and are preparing 10 spread
the glad tidings.
In taking the apple cure, the pa
tient is required to eat an apple
whenever he feels the desire for
drink coming on. If one apple fails
to ally thee raving, several should
be eaten. In a majority OF cases
the juices of the fruit will allay the
