CITY OWES HALF MILLION.

The city's financial statement pub
lished in Saturdays Courier, shows
very conclusively the necessity for
capable men to handle the business of
the city. The voters should look over
the statement carefully and many OF
them will see clearly the need for
putting and keeping men of ability at
the helm.
The statement shows that this city
is in debt over half a million dollars.
This is bonded Indebtedness and the
city must provide for retiring these
bonds as the various issues fall due.
Paying off debt of half million dol
lars is no child's play and men who
can do it are not overly plentiful.
In addition to the bonded indebted
ness, there are no doubt other obliga-
lions not shown in the statement as
for example, the city has for several
years been in debt to the railway and

THE 63RD CONGRESS.

Speaking of the congress just closed,
Majority Leader Underwood said:
"The congress just ended accom-.

years." said Oscar Underwood demo

accomplishments" he smiled, were
the Underwood tariff and the currency
laws"
Mr.. Wilson said: Time will show
the wisdom of the sixty-third congress-
work. Only the European war now
operates to disturb business, and it Is
the duty of every American to work
for this country's peace, order, justice,
and prosperity.

legislation was most unfortunate. The

MUZZIlNG THE PRESS,

Sporadic attempts to curb the free.
dom Of the press are denounced by
Judge Orrin I. N. Carter of the SUI
preme court of Illinois, as narrow, mis-
guided and fraught with great danger.
Contempt of court proceedings, he
added, should form a weapon Of the
last resort and should not be utilized
with the idea of preserving the dig
nifty of justice.
Judge Carter lauded the newspapers
as the country's greatest educational
Institutions, declaring that millions
read nothing else and that Americans
received practically their entire poll
teal education from the daily press.
THE freedom of the press is part
of the flesh and blood of the American
people," he says. "A pillar of liberty
is found in the first amendment to the
constitution which rules that congress
shall make no law abridging freedom
of speech or of the press. Light is
the best policeman and ordinarily an
attempt to censor or repress publlca'
tons produces state of things sought
to be obviated"

TEACHERS, PENSIONS.

Backers of the teachers pension bill
in the state legislature expect to see 1t
be made into a law this week. AS
amended, the bill does not call for any
funds from the state, the budren OF
making up the fund out of which pen
sions are to be paid. falling entirely
upon the teachers, though the state is
to administer the fund. The advocates
of teachers pensions say that the bill
will encourage teachers to remain at
their posts, thereby keeping the stand
ard of experience higher than it is at
present. Inasmuch as the fund raised
by the teachers will not last more
than two or three years, the state will
be expected eventually to give flnan-
cial aid to the project.

BRITAIN A PARASITE?

Charles P. Steinmetz, consulting en-
gineer of the General Electric Co., and
one of the contributors to the series Of
feature editorials Appearing in The
Courier, expresses the belief that
Great Britain's control of the seas is
as bad a thing for the world as would
be the realization of Germany's sup
posed ambition to rule the land. Mr..
Steinmetz likens England OF today
with Spain of three hundred years
ago; in other words calls England a
parasite, living off the prosperity and
wealth of other nations. He Is in
cuned to believe that Britannia's rule
of the waves, is not for the best. Read
his article. It is on this page today.

MUST PAY THE FIDDLER.

A New York Judge, IN sentencing
men who admitted forging passports
for the use of German soldiers return
ing to help their country fight it's bat
ties, said that while the men may have
been inspired by the most patriotic
motives, that their action was none
the less criminal and that in doing as
they did, they not only jeopardized
their own liberty but opened the way
for this country to be tangled up in
the struggle. While we may SYM
pathize with the men and admire them
for their willingness to take des-
perate chance, still we must remember
that they knew the consequences when
they did so. For them to ask leniency
because it was patriotism that In
spired their act, would make them less
deserving Of sympathy.

capital invested In foreign countries
coming in every year, England Is not
working for everything she consumes,
but living on the taxation OF foreign
countries, just as Spain did after the
discovery of America, and the same
fate threatens England, which has
overtaken other parasitic nations. The
beginning is already noticeable in the
going down Of many industries. But
the decay Of England would be very
serious loss to the world.
AS the pro-English sentiment Is bas-
ed on business interests, it may cease
and reverse just as suddenly when
American business interests are being
interfered with. In this lies the seri-
BUSINESS OF the extension of the mean
ing Of contraband, to which England
has been forced by the exigencies OF
war. American business is gradually
adjusting itself to the war; and begins
to resent the interference with the ex-
port trade, especially in such commod-
tiles as oil and copper, which have
powerful business interests back Of
them. It would, therefore, not be as
tonishing, in the event that England
maintains its attitude, to see Ameri-
can sentiment-as influenced by bust
ness interests-become strongly hos
tile to England In the next few months
and to see America take the same
stand regarding England's rule of the
oceans which England takes with re-
gard to Germany's threatened rule 7of
the land; namely, that it Is harmful
and against the legitimate interests Of
the commercial world to permit one ma
ton to dominate either the land or the
sea.

MISSOURI RIVER FACTS.

Water supply paper 1876 is the title
of study of the Missouri river and
its tributaries, just issued by the geo.
logical survey. The government ex-
perts who have been engaged in this
investigation declare that In view of
the varied character of the streams OF
the Missouri basin and their great
economic value for irrigation. for
power and for other purposes, the
study was well justified.
Records of flow at 100 permanent
stations of the survey during the year
1912, the first data necessary to every
form of water development, are in
cluded in the report. These records
show that some of the tributaries are
remarkable for variation in flow, while
a few, such as the Niobrara In Ne
braska, have notable regularity.
"The Missouri river proper" says
the survey, els formed in southwest
ern :Iontana by the junction Of three
streams which were discovered by
Lewis and Clark in 1906 and were nam
ed by them Jefferson, Madison and
Gallatin rivers. OF these three Jeffer-
son river drains the largest area and
is considered the continuation of the
main stream. Among the principal
tributaries of the Missouri are the
Marias, Musselshall, Yellowstone,
Cheyenne, Platte and Kansas.
"Ten states of the union are drained
in part by the Missouri river. Rising
at the Red Rock lakes, at an elevation
of $500 feet above sea level, this
stream descends through the Rocky
mountains and energies on the broad
prairie land a few miles below the
city of Great Falls, Mont. From that
point it is accounted navigable
stream with an easy grade, and in
passing through the Dakotas and along
the borders Of Nebraska, Kansas and
Iowa it receives the flow of great
tributaries, so that as 1t crosses the
state of Missouri and joins the Missis-
sippi a short distance above st. Louis
it becomes one of the largest rivers of
the world. Its total drainage area Is

light company for street lighting and

Statements that the city is out OF
debt are as untrue as it would be for a
man who had borrowed money to pay
his pressing obligations to overlook
the fact that he had paid his debts with
borrowed money and forget that he
still owed the entire amount. The
city's debts of over half a million dol
lars have been taken care of with Dor
rowed money, but the bonds that were
given in exchange for the money, must
be bought back at their face value plus
interest.
