A Sign Of Harmony.

General Felix Diaz, having cabled
his Fluctuations TO Senior Gamboa as
the Catholic party's nominee for
president in Mexico, is thus quoted
In a dispatch from Paris: O
FREDERICK Gamboa Is an honest and sim
oere man, and should he be elected
would bring 10 the office the right spirit.
MY friends have brought me forward,
but I have not asked them TO work hard
Tor me. Should be chosen. 1 win do
all can TO bring about order and JUS
tice In the country. My candidacy a
that OF a liberal, with freedom Of con-
science IN religion.
The significance of the statement
lies in its felicitous spirit. Here at
last is sign OF harmony between two
rival parties In Mexican politics.
though, OF course, on most questions
OF national policy, II Is to presumed,
Gamboa and Diaz are not far apart.
II Is premature TO hail the advent OF
peace in Mexico, and yet the existence
OF such relations between the two
leading presidential candidates must
be taken at not too great discount
as stimulating TO the hope of It..
Judging from present conditions,
Gamboa evidently has the lead in the
presidential race. ana there is reason
TO believe Gamboa's election at this
critical time would be a happy out
come. What Mexico most needs now
Is the man who, commanding conf
dence abroad, can come the nearest
to uniting around his own personality
the largest part of the population
and Gamboa gives fair promise OF
filling that bill.

Our Live Stuck.

The old-fashioned farmer figured
on raising a colt or two and several
calves every year so that for an
emergency he had little live stock
10 convert into cash. The principle
is one OF great value on the modern
farm, especially in view OF the prices
Of all kinds OF live stock. The Ne
braska farmer who has an average
horse to sell can get s1Ol for him,
for "a mule S112, for a COW $3.50.
and for other cattle 332,4O head
The total farm value of live stock in
Nebraska this year is placed at S24s-
s45, 900, being sal. 100000. OF 14.5
per cent, more than in 1919. The
live stock end OF the farm business
offers a mighty good offset for par
ttal crop failures. Nebraska and
sixteen other western states, count
ing Texas and Louisiana. raise al
most so per cent OF the total amount
OF live stock produced In the United
States, and yet Nebraska nor any OF
these states is coming anywhere near
its possibilities. Our farmers are
recognizing that fact. too, as Is
shown by the recent agitation OF in
tensive stock raising as a factor in
diversified farming.

Uncle Sam Protecting Birds.


The new federal statute for the pro-
lection Of game and migratory birds,
known as the Mclean law, becomes
effective today, taking precedence
over all state laws of this character.
1t was failure of the state laws to
protect the birds from ruthless
slaughter by sports and pot-hunters
that actuated the enactment OF this
measure. SO far as aiding the
states In the preservation of so val
liable an asset, the act is to be well
coined, but the right of the federal
government to intervene in what ap-
pears to be purely state affairs has
been questioned. Congress based It's
action on the theory OF interstate
commerce, showing that hunters
often crossed state lines to dispose
OF their game. In support of the bill
II was also argued that It would have
a tendency to minimize the number
OF accidental deaths from hunting by
removing from amateur nimrods the
occasion for carrying gun. 1t
would be well, of course. to accom-
plish such an object by any means,
although this seems to be a rather
roundabout way TO go at II. The
fundamental reason for all such
laws is the preservation of birds,
some species OF which would other
wise rapidly become extinct.

At least believe police duty means some
thing else besides being a political pand-
erer. 1 am happy to note that all Of the

glowingly OF these two men, and am
writing to you TO let you know that here
Ia one man at least who comedies with
your views. Let's have more men in our

this: Colonel Roosevelt is never seen TO

sledge hammer blows at abuses and
bosses" This remark brings to our mind
the old adage: 1T takes a rogue to catch
a rogue" which will very fifty apply to
the colonel in the matter of dealing
sledgehammer blows at bosses" 1t is
quite generally conceded everywhere that
with the exception Of Secretary, Bryan.
the ex-president colonel is the chief boss
of bosses; but. laying aside this fact and
every other feature OF the coloners past
career. let us hope that he may be able
to boss the bosses in the Empire state
In such a way that his efforts may "be
of genuine service to good government in
the sorely tried Empire state" and GER
tainly no need of honor will be with
holden from the colonel for the noble
work he may have accomplished for the
great commonwealth of New York.
