grieved II you thiak it best not to
press the matter at present; but my
own feeling Is that the company con-

Lewis Worker has purchased three
lots facing east on Sherman avenue

barn. 1t is probable that be will not
build, however, until next spring, but
it is his intention to erect = substan-

modste his business. s.
The property was purchased Of the
Swink estate, the consideration being
$500. 1t runs to the alley at the rear
of the New Era building. and faces the
HI Garage. This property is ideally
located for Mr.. Workers line and he
is very much pleased with his pur-
chase. His present location. he states,

Not Good Bee Season

A. Swanson, one Of the larger bee

the past season very poor one for
honey producing, but that II was ex-
celleDt for the increase Of colonies.
He has over one hundred new colo

Most bees In the county will have
TO be fed this winter on account OF
failure to store up food for winter.
Mr.. Swanson blames the grasshoppers

Editor New Era:

Editor New Era:
1t Is my belief that court house in
q small town should be on the main
street, and so close to the business
section as Is consistent. In Ordway
North park would be an ideal loca-
tion II 1t could be had. II not simi-
lar location, close in II such can be
secured. ~
Should a court house be located on
a side street or In the outskirts of the
town we would probably regret 1t in
after years, and perhaps be censured
by the coming generations. We should
not allow a reasonable question OF
money to influence us In this matter.
However am willing to accept cheer
fully any location selected by the
county commissioners.

Wilson's Vlndlcatlon.

President Wilson has had a heavy
load to carry in the last few months.
The domestic problems confronting
the administration would, Of them
selves, have been sufficiently difficult.
He has had In addition the burden OF
the distressing situation In Mexico.
He has been swamped with advice
from persons familiar and unfamiliar
with the conditions. BY one group he
has been urged to recognize Huerta. BY
another to intervene and establish an
American protectorate. Through all
the conflict Of opinion and the storm
Of criticism he has kept his head and
steadily adhered to the policy laid
down months ago.
The Star recalls with satisfaction
that last December 1t expressed conf
dence in the presidents purposes and
ability regarding the Mexican situa-
ton, and urged that his policy be up
held by the nation without regard to
party lines.
Mr.. Wilson's wisdom and HIS self
reliance have amply indicated the
views then expressed.-Kansas City

PROVES laws VALUE.
All Sections Benefit Under Bank
ing and Currency Law.
Money Received for the Huge Crops to
Be Garnered VIII Stay Where II
Has Been Earned and De-
Velop Country.

The United States will contribute
more than 5.0OO,OOO,OOO bushels OF
grain to the worlds food supply
this year. The major part-two-
thirds or three-quarters of the whole
OF this vast yield comes from the
West. Under the new banking and
currency system, money paid for this
huge crop will stay in the West to
be used in actual development, In
stead of being forwarded to New
York to help the stock gambling oD-
erations of Wall street.
Under the old plan Of concentrated
reserves, money paid for western
crop gravitated into three great cities.
mostly to New York. There, 1t was
placed out on call loans, and used
to mark stocks up and down at the
pleasure of captains of finance West
ern builders could not get western
capital to finance a western enter
prise without buying the o. X. OF
some Investment banker" with Wall
street connections.
When the new plan is in complete
operation, the reserve money of any
district will stay right in that dis
trict. Western crop money will be
available for western development in
the West 1t will be on hand to build
new silos, new railroad equipment,
new machinery Of all sorts-and this
without paying tribute to the money
lords of New York.
1t is this fact which makes the new
banking and currency law admittedly
the greatest piece Of constructive re-
form the country has known in a gen.
Grafton; and it is this fact which gives
added significance to the huge crops
Of the present season. When money
stays where 1t is earned, prosperity is
on a sound foundation.

Prices for Raw Wool.

There has been no decrease in the
demand for wool. and the prices OF
the domestic clip are high. 1t looks
as though these prices will break all
records except for a few exceptional
years. There seems a scarcity of the
finer feeces. and efforts are being
made to use some OF the poorer kinds
to make attractive fabrics with fair
show of success. Farmers and wool
growers all through the West and
South are aware of the conditions and
of the needs OF the mills, and are hold
ing back for even higher prices. Some
of the mill men who put in early or
ders before clipping began are con-
graduating themselves on their FORE
sight.-New York Times.

sIo Business and Big Politics.

When men of the caliber Of tina
president and worthy representatives
of big business get together there Is
hope of something being done worth
while. In congress we have observed
the maneuvers Of tacucians, con.
cerned, for the most part, with per-
sonal interests, and rising at highest
to the enactment Of privilege for
classes of various sorts. Strategists
Of that sort would win a battle at the
cost Of a campaign. The president is
not chargeable with such sentiments.
He is not the president Of class or
Of party. He is the president of all
Americans and the foe of privilege by
law.-New York Times.

ALARM IN MARINE CIRCLES
Many Ships, Mostly German, Have Not
Reported and Their Where
abouts 10 Unknown.

New York.-With war formally de-
clared between England and Germany,
there was keen interest in marine
circles regarding the movement Of
transatlantic steamships, particularly
the German liners. which are scurry-
ing to port to avoid possible capture
by warships Of hostile nations.
The arrival OF the treasure laden
Kronprinzessin Cecilie at Bar Harbor,
Me-, led to the belief here that
another North German Lloyd liner
which has been missing, the Kaiser
Wilhelm II, may turn up Unexpectedly
in some other American port.
Lost" Since Leaving cherbours.
The Kaiser Wilhelm II has not been
heard from since touching at Cher
bourg on July 20.
II 1t has not been captured, the
agents suggested that 1t may not have
defined It's position by wireless for
fear II would be taken as the Cecilie's
captain reported the proximity Of
French warships.
The German steamship agents here
are taking every precaution to pre-
vent any hostile movement being car
ried out against their vessels in this
port.
Three British, two German. and two
French cruisers are supposed to be
near this port and naval battle near
here is regarded as not impossible.

Of the committee formed to aid Amer
leans in Paris, have issued a circu-
lar to their countrymen.
See No Cause for Alarm.
The committee asks that the Ameri-
cans be patient and calm, the COM
mittee having the assurance Of the
American ambassador, Mr.. Herrick,
that he will do everything reasonable
In his power to promote and protect
the interests of all Americans in Paris,
which attitude we have reason to think
is approved by the government at
Washington. We believe there Is no
cause for alarm"
The French Line steamer, Chicago,
sailed from Havre. Colonel Calvin
Brown devised plan to take passen-
gers down the Seine to Havre In pleas
ure steamers.
Mrs. Herrick, wife of the American
ambassador, planned to join the
French Red Cross, but later changed
her-intentions at the suggestion of her
husband, and will organize an Ameri-
can hospital here. Mr.. Herrick is of
the belief his wife can be of more
service in attending the wounded this
way than by going into the field as a
nurse.
Ambassador Herrick has arranged
with Premier Vivani that Americans
leaving France will not be required
to show passports or otherwise identi-
fly themselves, the simple declaration
that they are from the United States
being taken sufficient to pass them.
Take Mrs. PaImer's Auto.
Mrs. Herrick also is trying to ar
range for Americans to leave for
southern France with their automo-
biles, which are now being requisi-
toned by the military administration
for war purposes. Mrs. Potter Pal
mer's machine was among those requi-
sitioned, and Judge e. H. Gary was
notified that his car was likely to be
taken shortly
Nearly two thousand Americans
sailed for the United States on board
the French liner France, whose Off
GERS have consented to give up their
cabins in order to provide accommo-
dalton for passengers.
