NolU it Comes Out Dan Cupid Led
Them to Fremont for the Wedding

II is the custom among writer's Of this
kind Of story to say that cupid was

We aren't going to say that. Cupid isn't
an engineer. He doesn't belong to the
Brotherhood. He wouldn't know the

No, It was Just one Of the regular Union
Pacific engineers that pulled the train
from Omaha to Fremont last Monday
morning. the train that bore Miss Winnie
G. Morley of the Thompson Belden mil
linery department and H. a. Monroe. a
travelling salesman for the Peninsular
Furnace company. Also IL bore Miss Ona
Morley, clerk in the office of Or p. T.
Barber. dentist, and Harry J. Peterson,
postoffice clerk.
Don't be misled. The latter couple de-
clare. assert. asseverate and solemnly af-
firm that the affair at Fremont was not
a double wedding.

Pork is substitute for the cam
paign cigar which fills the halls OF
| congress with pure patriots.
There are a great many varieties
of pork manufactured in this coun-
! try at the expense Of the plain peo-
pie, but all Of them serve the one
. beneticient purpose OF re-electing to
congress some statesman who other
wise would be obliged to work out his

In justice to congress, however, 1t
should be stated that a great deal Of
| this pork is picked right at home and
shipped to Washington in the form OF
a popular petition calling for the erec-
ton Of a 100000 federal building in
town with four business houses. in
GLIDING the jail. One Of the worst
things that can happen TO a congress-
man is to present five or six Of these
petitions and see the public buildings
committee draw their teeth in a cold
blooded and scientific manner.
The skilful use of pork has retained
in public life many a man whose ef-
forts in debate have been confined to a
motion to adjourn. The statesman
who is able TO tap the pork barrel at
will and extract therefrom army posts.
postoffice sites and river and harbor
appropriat has a great advantage
over a humble colleague who is a strict
vegetarian. Some of our mightiest
pork hunters find no trouble in being
re elected with a loud noise after
throwing a few hundred thousand dol
lars Of government currency into
project TO make Catfish Creek navi-
gable for its entire distance Of eleven
miles '.'~s
Owing to the shopping prying ways
OF the daily press, pork is becoming
less popular as a daily article of food.

ment knows7what orders 1t has issued
1t knows how its merchantmen are
armed and manned. and, what instruc-
lions have been given them.
The United States government Is
entitled to this information. 1t is
Great Britain's duty to furnish It
without delay.
Belligerent rights do not include the
right to mask a merchantmen and
send it out as warship. The nation
that permits neutral innocent pas
sengers to travel on secret warships
is guilty Of treachery. Great Britain
can remove all suspicion on this point
by giving positive assurance to the
United States that merchantmen are
not armed for offeTse and will not be
permitted to attack warships.
I Germany asserts that Great Britain
Is armIng merchantmen and ordering
them to attack submarines; to fire
upon them. TO ram them. or to flee
from them, as circumstances seem
best.
The United States now looks to
Great Britain to deny or admit this
charge. 1t asks for refutation OF the
German allegations.
Every day Of delay means danger to
American citizens and danger OF COM
plications with Germany. Great Brit
ain can end this delay in half day.
It can disprove the German charges,
If they are not true. It can give clean
cut assurances to the United States OF
the good faith of British mercha Mt =
men. The moment these assurances
are given. the situation will be cleared.
Why does Great Britain delay ?
Why does 1t fail to certify to the
honest character OF its merchantmen?
Why does 1t permit the United States
