Under it, officers will receive 10 per cent and enlisted men 20 per cent increase in pay. In adopting ii, the Senate also increased the house appropriation for pay from $1,O50000 to $14,178,24O.

SETTING THE PACE.

Referring to the popular belief that the metropolitan centers are citadels of corruption upon which no impress sion can be made, the Union Signal says that this ''big city bugaboo IS now losing it's terrors. It points to New Yorks board of health, to Chl- cago's Sunday closing, to Philadel- phia's stand against the use of alco- holic drinks by it's city employees, and remarks that the public will look eN- pectantly to Boston, St Louis ana Baltimore for some spectacular move ment which will excel the reforms or the other three. "Meanwhile,' it says ''in the great cities of the Paclhc coast, Seattle and Portland, and m the municipalities of the middle west Denver and Des Moines, prohibition is not only demonstrating it's success as a panacea for civic ills, but has reached stage of popularity where the men who wrote and orated against 1t a few months ago, are now eloquent ly insisting that from time immemo- rial they have been its ardent anu self-sacrificing advocates

CONDITIONS IN KANSAS.

Have you noticed the Appalling Conditions in Kansas" says the To- peka Capital.
 Well, if you haven't, the brewers have. It is awful. The publicity agent of the Wholesale Liquor Deal CTS association in 1916, serial No. 12. lays bare all the details. And awful is no name for it. The state is regular shambles, as a result of pro- hibition. Infanticide is a popular sport, fall and summer. No baby's life is safe in Kansas, the publicity expert has learned Relatives thirst for the lives of the little ones. Dirt, Restitution and disease prevail. Flash fly dressed lassies prowl the streets in drDves in search of their prey, and no man is safe."
 The Capital goes on to quote some of the scare headlines of the Liquor Mems publicity serial and concludes:
 Kansas might as well face the proposition squarely. Any attempts at improvement made in the state no matter along what lines, will be seized upon by the liquor interests to show that the conditions existing in the state are appalling and the 'appall- ing is due entirely to prohibition. It is understood the next serial issued will explain how it was that the prairie fires in western Kansas were due to the state prohibitory amend ment. You may not see the connec- tion, but the bright young man em- ployed as publicity agent for the Ma tional Wholesale Liquor Dealers as- sociation won't miss it. Not be- He is going to show up in all it's abysmal horror the awful fate that has over taken Kansas because it tried to shut out that safeguard of the home and savior of the nation, intoxicating liquor"

ON CONFISCATION.

One of the arguments against pro- hibition is that it contiscates property. It has been well pointed out that this argument overiooks the fact that pro hibition does not take from the brew CTS, distllers and saloon keepers 8 foot of ground that they own or a single brick out of any of their build ings. They have their property just as they had it before, but they cannot use it for the same purpose. However, there are other purposes for which 1t can be used. When the saloon is driven out the building can be used for the sale of things that are helpful and the buildings now used for distil- leries and breweries can be utilized for other business enterprises, as they have been in states that have adopted prohibition, with distinct profit to the property owners.

PIGS AND POTATOES.

It sometimes takes necessity to force us to make use of an opportun- |iy.

 Intelligent djvarsifcation of crops 'with hga-.o., has been the prevailing .plan in taa, county. The thin sand. lands referred to have been planted .m peanuts and sweet potatoes and the .yIelds have been surprising.
 These crops required markets which had not been developed. To solve this problem pigs have been raised to eat the peanuts and a marketing associa- ton organized to reduce the cost of selling the hogs. The selling organi- zauon got in touch with the packers and guaranteed every hog in the ship ment This was desirable in order that peanut-fed hogs might not be included with hogs that had been fed peanuts, but finished on grain.
 Shipment of hogs from points in Oomanche county has brought cash to farmers and increased the trade or merchants Over 100 cars of hogs nave already been shipped this year. When We remember that high prices nave been paid this year we can ger an Idea Of what such a change in larmmg methods means.

 "On the train this morning I rode down with a German acquaintance, said a Nebraska man from the South Platte country. In the course of our talk asked him the usual question: How about prohibiion?' It'll go dry hy a majority of 5000 to 10,O00, was his answer What makes you think so9 l asked I'll tell you he said. I was born in the old country Over there and over here I have always taken drink whenever 1 felt like it. I never drank to excess, and l never could see any harm in the moderate use of liquor such as 1 and my friends were accustomed to- But the trouble is that our sons have gotten away from the old customs. To speak plain ly, they drink to excess. We Germans despise drunkenness just as much as you Americans despise it. When we see our sons degrading themselves in this way we decide to call halt. The only way to do this is to blot out the American saloon. I am going to vote dry next fall. and my neighbors are going to vote dry with me '
