POLK COUNTY FINANCES.

The Star this week prints the list of Polk County warrants issued during the quarter ending Decem- Der 3i, 1916, representing the coun- ty expenditures from September 30 to the end of the year. Aside from those drawn on the several road funds, these totaled S5,6S0.il, and represent the heaviest expenses of any quarter of the year, including as they do the circuit court costs and the costs of the general election.
 At the beginning of the last quar- ter of 1916 the actual indebtedness of Polk county was S6,iiiii. Add ing to this the expenses for the three months, as above, $5,680.4i, gives a total of sii,79i. .5s. During the same quarter year Treasurer Anderson redeemed warrants to the amount of $3,S67.29, and at the end had s57.9i cash on hand, total of $3,925.20. leaving an actual indebt- edness at the beginning of 1917 of S7,s66.3s.
 For the details of the money ex- pended, read the report of County Clerk Alexander in this issue.

Frank Hale, Travelling Salesman, Hard Hit Under the Bone
 Dry Law.

Fayetteville, Feb. 28-Frank Hale, Ia travelling salesman. who makes his headquarters here, brought 3 quarts of whiskey in his suitcase on a recent visit to this city. The fact was discovered and he was ar rested. His was the first case under the new bone dry" law to be tried in Washington county, the home of the author of the bill, Senator Greenhouse. Altho this is the home town of MT. Hale, he was sentenced to serve 30 days in jail in addition to being fined Si00 and costs. It is probable he will appeal.
 Police Judge W. F. Stirman says that not a case of drunkenness has been before his court this month. He said this condition has not pre- vailed during his tenure in alice, eight years. He attributes this to the bone dry" law.

MORE AND MORE LIKE WAR.

Hardly day passes that does not seem to give more cause for actual war against Germany, and that tha United States must fight has gone to point almost beyond the stage of doubt.
 It seems almost incredible. and yet the evidence exists that, while protesting deep regard for our coun- try and maintaining the utmost de- sire for peace, Germany was doing all the underhanded things in her power to bring Us into trouble. She had her emissaries behind the re- cent Cuban trouble: she was trying to force us into open war with Mex ico, and into trouble with Colom- bia, and then tried to unite Japan and Mexico in an alliance to invade our country from the South. She also caused the ships interned in our harbors to be crippled, all be- fore any break in diplomatic rela- tions.
 Since then, and after the United States had shown Ambassador von Bernstorff and all his stan every possible courtesy and every safe guard in reaching their homes, Ger many has continued to hold our consuls practically as prisoners, or hostages, and has continued in it's refusal to release the Yarrowdale seamen, against all precedent and all demands.
 There seems but one ending to all this, and that is war horrible, bloody, wasteful war.
 Aside from all this, is if not la mentable thing that as good a peo- pie, and the most efficient and thoro- ly trained people of the earth, should be led, thru the ambition and intrigue of their rulers, into po- sition where almost the entire world has it's hands raised against them?

F MEN ODSTRUCT
 POWER TO WILSON.
76 Who Favored Armed Neutrality Were Unable to Put Measure to Vote-Senator Kirby an
 Opponent.

Washington. March l.Several senator's, led by senator LaFollette and encouraged by Senator Stone. Democratic chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, in ,fllibuster, denounced by President Wilson $ | spokesman as the most reprehensi- ble in the history of any civilized nation, defied the will of an over- whelming majority in Congress up to the last minute today and denied to the president law authorizing him to arm American merchant ships to meet the German submarine menace. Unyielding turnout 26 hours of continuous session to appeals that their defiance of the president would be humiliating to the country: un- compromising in a crisis described as the most serious to the nation since the Civil war, LaFollette and his supporters refused a majority of their colleagues an opportunity to vote on the armed neutrality bill, and it died with the xty-fourth Congress at noon.
 To fix responsibility before the country, 76 senators, 90 Republicans and ie' Democrats, signed a manifes- to proclaiming to the world that they favored passage of the meas ure.
 The declaration was embodied in the record of the Senate.
 The Manifesto.
 The text of the manifesto follows:
 The majority of the United States senators favored the passage of the Senate bill authorizing the president of the United States to arm Ameri- can merchant vessels, similar bill having already passed the house by vote of 403 to i3. Under the rules of the Senate allowing unlimited de- bate, 1t appears to be impossible to obtain vote previous to noon March i, 1917, when this session of Congress expires. We desire the statement entered on the record to establish the fact that the Senate favored the legislation and would pass it if vote could be obtained Thirteen senators declined to slgn the statement, but one of them, Sen- ator Penrose of Pennsylvania, said that he would have voted for the bill had an opportunity been afTord- ed him.
 The Twelve Opponents. The f2 who went on record with the i3 members of the House against granting to President Wilson the au- thority he asked for in the crisis are:
 Republicans - Clapp, Minnesota: {: Cummins, Iowa; Gronna, North Da- kota; Kenyon, Iowa; LaFollette, Wisconsin; Norris, Nebraska; Works of California.
 Democrats Kirby, Arkansas Lane, Oregon; O'Gorman, New York; Stone, Missouri; Vardaman, Missis- sippi.
