Nearly everyone INDUCES their
appetite and the digestive organs
are abused, resulting in a conges-

the bowels and causes much misery

The most effective remedy to cor

The Lur. Of the battlefield.

1t is generally assumed that the distressing
experiences OF our mArooned American tourists
caught In the war zone will put Quietus on
stimulate our people to see America first. On
casual consideration that would seem to he the
natural consequence of the disturbance OF the
European excursion business. but sober second
thought raises at least a glimmer Of doubt.
The war OF the nations is the most widely
Advertised event OF the century. and the havoc
wrought by the opposing armies will inspire
worldwide awe and wonder. Historic battle
fields are in the making. and famous cities and
towns are undergoing a scourging bound TO
leave scars to be healed only with time. What
attraction can any corner OF the big round globe
offer more powerfully alluring to the sightseer
than the area OF all this conflict and carnage?
And what call for q travel tour that cannot be
put off easier than this?
Curiosity through all the ages has proved TO
be an almost irresistible loadstone. We re-
member how in the week following our own tor
nado, eagerness to get look at the wreckage
brought a hundred thousand people into Omaha
from the surrounding neighborhoods, over
crowding all means Of conveyance and accom-
mediation arrangements. II miniature catA-
clysm like a wind storm could do that, what
magnetism may not the terrific conclusion Of
gigantic armies exert? II the lure OF the battle
field is allowed to play with unchecked force.
II is reasonable to believe that there will not be
available ships enough after the war to satisfy
the demand for them.

Ninth Week of the War.


II any one harbored the expectation at it's
outbreak that the great war Of nations was to be
short, sharp and decisive. and that one side
to have the other completely at its mercy after
the first onslaught, the beginning OF the ninth
week of the conflict must bring deep disappolnt-
ment to such hopes.
We have and heard a great deal OF
speculation on the probable duration Of the war,
but in the period already elapsed many cal
culations have gone amiss that the discussion
can be nothing but guesswork 1t would be
bold assertion for any one to say that up to the
present either combatant has scored a suffi-
GENTLY decided advantage to warrant picking the
eventual winner with anything like reasonable
certainty. to say nothing OF fixing the date of
the windup. When President Wilson In his
proclamation for a peace prayer service put the
day three weeks ahead he took no chance that
the war would be over by that time, and the
occasion past for praying for peace
1t goes without saying, however. that moth
ing would be so gratifying as an early oppor
tunity to set aside another day to offer prayers
of thanksgiving for the ending of hostlities. and
the resumption Of only peaceful pursuits.

ride
Undo the autumn air
OF what avail is this carnival tide,
This blood red carnival wear,
These carnival lines that rock and reel
And eddy and sally and meet and wheel
And break like a surge on a shore of steelf
Aye, what when the doom-led men have
died.
Does the king Of the carnival care?

Expediting Consolidation.

The supreme court decision holding exempt
from taxation all property with title vested in
the Water board as publicly owned property
must exert strong influence for consolidation.
The multiplication of the water works has
seriously affected the town of Florence because
the taxes paid by the old water company
amounted to practically half of the total tax
revenues. and to throw the entire burden of local
government and Of maintaining the public
schools upon the owners Of the remaining prop
erty would double their tax burden unless the
outlays were materially curtailed
What is true with reference to Florence APP
plies also to other suburbs, including South
Omaha, although perhaps in lesser degree. II
enlarging the municipal activities OF Omaha is
TO impair the financial resources OF our subur-
ban towns, the only way for them to offset or
recoup is to become part Of the Greater Omaha.
Consolidation would help them in two ways,
namely, through elimination of needlessly dupli-
Gated officers and through making the aggre-
gate revenues and credit available for expendi-
lures within any part Of the citys boundaries.

Colonel Roosevelt devoted special attention to
Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman, renominated on

dead cock In the pit" who was afraid to attack

clared to his auditors, ARE of the same type OF

What War Does to the Campaign Textbook.

Another misfortune of the overshadowing
European war is the blow 1t deals to the CAM

care. The democratic campaign textbook in par.
ticular, the one to which own Met" was sum
moned to contribute his literary genius, deals
with about everything except the one real live
issue which has sprung up since its pages went
to press. 1t contains signed article by William
jennings Bryan testifying to the exceptional high
character of the democratic administration. II
expatiates upon the achievements OF the demo-
cratic administration In all sorts Of lines. and
furnishes material to defend democrats from
attack. But the fast moving-picture kaleido-
scope Of events has sent all these subjects for
the time being to obscurity to make way for
the problems precipitated by the war, and the
money invested in the publication Of the text
book is to all intents and purposes money
thrown away.
