The $40 Homestead.

The $40 acre homestead has created considerable excitement
among home-seekers, "a well as those who already own a n old home
stead or have one other entry. If this bill is ever passed and signed
1t will probably revive al interest i'll the west and western develop
ment that has not been manifested for years. There is unquestion-
ably thousands of acres of the nature contemplated by the act, which
are at this time subject to entry.
Many who would not use their homestead rights under either
the lou or $40 acre act, would do so under the $40 act. 1t is certain
ly to be hoped that the $40 bill becomes a law and it can not be
made too lenient for the settler. While some think that by making
the law easy to comply with that there will be lots of fraud. This is
in error. While any law can be abused, yet we will venture there
existance.
1t will cause men to actually look for homes and it will bring
under patent millions of acres in the ives. that will never be patented
any other way-abovea all it will shut out a lot of government leasing
schemes and bring much of that contemplated grazing lands into
private ownership. While a large portion of it will be used for
grazing, yet patented land under fence will Craze three head where
it is now only grazing one. Thus it will help both stock industry,
individual and government, and be a big factor in running and i'm
proving the county and state.

ARMIES BATTLE IN
AFURIOUs BLIZZARD
Germans Continue Great Drive
on verdun.
HEAVY LOSSES INFLICTED
The French Falling Back, But Their
Lines Intact Heavy Loses On
Both Sides, German Casualties
Estimated At 100000.

LondOn.--Along the front in the
region Of Verdun the Germans and the
French continue the great struggle
which began several days ago, with
the Germans on the offensive and
their aim evidently the great French
fortress of Verdun.
Notwithstanding heavy fall of
Snow, the Germans to the north OF
Verdun have attacked, with what Paris
terms unprecedented violence and
with large forces, French positions at
several points, but according to the
French official communication the at
tacks were without success. Especial
~ has this been true of La Cote du
Poiyre, about four and one-half miles
north of the fortress the attainment Of
which would give the Germans good
vantage point from which to operate
against Verdun.
Heavy casualties are being inflicted
by both sides, and the Germans claim
that they have taken many prisoners,
the aggregate at last reports totaling
more than 10000.
Say Germans Lost 10000.
The German losses during the first
four days of the battle around Verdun
are authoritatively estimated at $780,
coo men.
The German offensive is recognized
now as probably only the beginning
Of determined effort to take the fort
ress, formerly the key to the French
front. and compares in violence and
losses to the battle of the User. The
French assume that the battle may
continue a fortnight The German
forces are known to be at least 3O0,-
700. supported by numerous 15-inch
and 1T-inch Austrian mortars, with
all the heavy artillery used in the
Serbian campaign and part of that
formerly employed on the Russian
front
Preparations for the battle were OBJ
served early in December, when the
first troops assigned to the operation
were brought up. Eight division that
returned from Serbia were sent to Bel
GUM for a rest and then transported
to the region of verdun in January.
Five army corps in all are known to
have been brought up to reinforce two
corps which previously held that part
OF the line between Etain and Vau-
Qoi6. Those were the best troops of
the German Army, including, as it is
learned from prisoners, the famous
Third Corps Of Brandenburg, sup.
posedly equal in valor to the Prussian
guard, and the Fifteenth Army Corps,
commanded by Gen. Won Deimling,
known in France as one of the most
brilliant of the German general Off.

SPECIAL INSTITUTIONS
President OF the National Group OF
School Executives Urged To Name
Committee To Study Problem
Faced BY Educators.

Detroit. Mich.-The Department of
Superintendent of the National Assoc
citation, at its closing session here,
went on record as opposed to COM
pulsory military training in the public
schools. The educators, however,
favored plan whereby the American
youth" who wishes to receive military
instruction can find special schools
available.
The action of the department was
generally regarded as compromise
1t was said that although there were
many advocates of strong national
system of preparedness, as well as
many opponents of such an organiza-
ton. the most generally accepted view
was to keep militarism out of the
grade and high schools. Most of the
delegates, it was said. favored the
special military school plan.
A resolution opposing scholastic
military training. which was adopted.
carried clause which recommended
that the president of the department
of superint ndents-John D. Shoop, of
Chicago appoint committee of nine
ito study and report on the proper
place for acceptance of military edu-
cation of American youth"
The department agreed to finance

FIFTEEN STATES
Join THE FIGHT
Want West Virginia Prohibition
Law Sustained.
DECISION WILL AFFECT ALL
Brief Claims There Is No Difference
In Principle Between Right To
Manufacture and Right
To Import.

Washington. Attorney generals Of
Is States filed with the Supreme Court
joint argument in support of the con-
stitutionality of the West Virginia
liquor law prohibiting the receipt and
possession of intoxicating liquors for
personal use and of the Federal Webb
Kenyon liquor law prohibiting the
shipping of intoxicating liquors into
States for use in violation of State
laws.
The States representing were Ari-
IONA, Georgia, Idaho. Iowa, Kansas.
Mississippi, North Carolina, North
Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Wash
ington and Alabama.
The decision Of the court in the
West Virginia cases, now before the
court for oral argument is expected
to be the most important adjudica-
tion in the temperance fight in a dec
ade.
1T seems strange at this late day"
the attorney generals stated to the
court in their brief, ito hear claim
made that the State and national gov
ernments' guarantee to a citizen the
right to possess and receive liquor for
personal use and to drink the same in
unlimited quantities. If such had been
the case, it is difficult to see how any
sort of prohibitory law could have
even been sustained, since all OF them
have direct tendency to reduce or
prevent the use of intoxicating bever-
ages, and it is the purpose of all of
them to promote temperance by the
prevention of the consumption of in
toxicants. This purpose has found re-
peated expression in adjudged cases.
IF a citizen of state has a right
to obtain intoxicating liquors for his
own use in any quantity, or in unlin-
tied quantities, it would seem to fol-
low he should at least have the right
to manufacture such liquor for his
own use from the products OF his own
labor, and yet it is settled he has not
such right"
Turning to the Webb-Kenyon law.
the attorney generals urged that to
accomplish the valid purpose Of pro-
hibiting the traffic in liquors it is
necessary for state to have the right
to control interstate shipments even
for personal use.
This is a step which has fair
relation to the end to be accom-
plished," they contended What is
the difference In principle between
the denial of the right to manufac-
ture and denial of the right to i'm
port?"
