The Ostrich

The ostrich is the society person
of all birds. Observe the low neck
with very little sheltsr-and maybe
she can't trot.
The ostrich hasn't very much
gray matter" in the belfry. Even
with that handicap, the male ostrich
doesn't wear a sport shirt and nei-
ther is he a six-day bike race fan.
When danger is near, the ostrich
pokes his head in the sand (like con-
gress) and thinks that because he
can't see the danger it can't see him.
Anyhow, danger doesn't look for
the peanut buried in the sand; it
takes a healthy wallOp at the bulk
that buries the would-be think tank.
MyA wouldn't the ostrich be in a
fine pickle on a dance floor?

Mr.. Dougherty was born on farm
near Dougherty, Ia, and for the past
ten years has been a resident of Ward

Minot police force eight years ago and
after serving two years, attracted so
much attention for his ability that
he was appointed as deputy sheriff by

Omaha Again the Victim of Democratic Politics?

In the four years that Omaha has been at the mercy of
democratic national administration with only dscredited and
democrats like Senator Hitchcock and Congressman
Lobeck look after interests at Washington this city has
had to take succession of bumps in the loss of nearly all
movable federal agencies.
Thus Omaha has had to sit helpess by and watch
democratic masters the quarermasters depart
ment to Chicago, send the Indian supply depot to San
Francisco locate the federal bank at Kansas City and
close down the signal service school at Fort Omaha.
When recently decided to go after of the land
banks had the humang spectacle of Senator Hitchcock
refusing to champion Omahas caimn word refusing to
stand up for his home town.
And have another pretty piece of doubleshuffe
politics. which, if put over will make Omaha again the goat.
few weeks an order approved by the Chief of
Signal Corps to establish at Omaha army aviation atio
with balloon unit for 250 officers and at Fort
Omaha, and duly announced in the papers.
According to information from Washington, this order
being held by Secretary of War Baker According
port also current in Washington this balloon station has been
put prize be awarded only after election AS Ohio
Secretary Baker eager have his state go for Will
and nducement thereto has tipped off that he will take
this station from Omaha and to Akron Ohio for
which the big rubber companies there pulling condition
that Ohio votes democratic.
If this report is not true why is Secretary Baker withhold
ing approval of General 1Scrven's order?
If this report is true if this the kind of treatment Omaha
gets from Wilson administration if this illustrates the useless
of democratic senator and congressman is time
sit up and take notice?
Why should Omaha be supne victim of democratic poll
tics and help keep democrats at Washington who constantly
give us the worst of it? ,e

Bryan white Book"
Throws Light Upon
Postscript Dispute

Lincoln, Neb., Nov IA small
personal white book" circulated by
w. J.. Bryan shortly following his
resignation from President Wilson's
cabinet, contains passages which
throw some light on the issue raised
by Senator Lodge on the notes to
Germany, concerning the Lusitania
sinking. The Bryan circular deals
particularly with the second note to
Germany, and says a clause was in
serted in it following his resignation.
The Bryan circular quotes the for
mer secretary of state as saying:
81 saw the final draft OF the note
just before my resignation took eff
feet, but it contained all important
change. | had no knowledge of the
change at the time my resignation
was rendered and accepted. This
change, while very much softening
the note, was not, however, sufficient
in my judgment, to justify me in
asking permission to withdraw my
resignation.
The circular then gives the purport-
ed text Of the "softening clause" as
follows:
'1f the imperial German govern
ment should deem itself to be in pos
session OF convincing evidence that
the officials of the government OF the
United States did not perform these
duties with thoroughness the govern
ment of the United States sincerely
hopes that it will submit that evidence
for consideration"
