Kearney, Neb., March 2o.-(Spe-

up to the tense national situation,
which has developed here especially
since the State Guard has been called
to the colors. A new enlistment sta
ton has also been opened and nine
recruits have been enrolled in the

Adopts Emergency Budget.
London, March 2o.--Reuter's AM
sterdam correspondent, quoting Ber-
line advices, says the Reichstag has
adopted all three readings of the
emergency budget. Both socialist
parties voted against the measure.
Edward Bernstein, socialist said
the advices, delivered speech justi-
flying his opposition to the budget.
He said experience had strengthened
his distrust in the government. Amer
lea was converted into an enemy by
neutrals filled with displeasure to-
ward Germany. A good and sincere
peace must be striven for at the
speediest moment.
Herr Bernstein added that the
events in Russia under the leadership
OF the socialists strengthened the con-
fidence that the social democracy was
able to fulfill its old peaceful pro-
gram"
The socialist, Gustav Noske, said
that Russian apprehension that Ger
many would seek to restore the regi-
me OF Emperor Nicholas must be
officially dispcllcd.
Stirred by Revolution.
The German government is greatly
stirred by the revolution in Russia,
especially In regard to its effect on
American public opinion, and believes,
according to the information at hand,
that internal reforms in Germany will
do more to soften the animosity OF
he American people than anything
else could.
Therefore, taking their cue from
the Russian revolution, they are de-
clared to feel that large promises of
internal reform leading toward
more democratic form of govern
ment will do more to placate Amer
lean opinion than any immediate
change in submarine plans, which
they hardly dared to alter on ac-
count Of the widespread belief Of the
German people that the present pol
icy will result in the early termina-
ton OF the war. Therefore any mod
ihcations OF the submarine campaign
are not expected, it is said, to extend
beyond the paper stage, although
meanwhile American liners like the
St. Louis may expect some measure
az immunity.

Goodbye To Old Days;
Goodbye To Old Ways

When we went into the big war we
said farewell 20 the old days OF peace
and ease.
We went into a job of hard work. Il
was curtains and dim lights for what had
been.
We said goodbye to the old ways, TOO.
Many of Us didn't suspect az the time
that we were closing the book on things
as they were But we were.
We viii have peace some day-peace
with victory for democracy. But lot
of things we had in the peace left behind
we viii not have in the peace to come.
And most Of them we viii not want
We are going to do things more eff
ciently in the new peace. We are going
to take better care of ourselves. And
so. entirely aside from the great question
of world democracy, we are going TO
have a better democracy among our
selves.
We are not going to stand for a lot
Of the robbery We used TO put up with.
We are going TO regulate food admins
tration for war purposes. We are going
TO put the brakes on gambling in food.
Does anyone think that once having had
a theftless food market We viii ever go
back TO the old kind?
Today Uncle Sam is saying to produc-
ers of war commodities: So much shall
you charge, and no more. Will Uncle
Sam ever again stand for the good old
scandals We used to read so much about i?
Not if we know our uncle
And we are learning how to eat-for
the first time in our lives. We are learn
ing to eat less and to count the cost of
what we eat. The drilling we get in
proper eating during the war Will stay
with US We will be a stronger race
when peace comes.
War is going to purge our souls. War
is going to clean US up. We have got
to be 100 per cent fit in war. We shall
remain 100 per cent fit in peace.
That viii be one of the greatest OF
wars blessings. War is the great puri-
fer in many ways 1t is good to think
about these blessings Of the peace to
come. 1t viii help us thru the trials Of
the war.
