employed corps Of eloquent and tire

is liable to yield only a >, cry for
recognition from, for instance, the
Trans Caspian-J ugo-R uthenians. In
the hotel writing room the stationery
is mysteriously replaced by appeals
for funds from, perhaps, the, national
party Of the patriotic league Of Polish
Ukraine. And in the morning mail one

It pays to be kind even to tramp
dog. For instance, had it not been
for the hobo canine, rags" whom he
had taken into his home and befriend-
ed, Robert Cox, his wife and many
other residents would probably have
persisted in the recent fire at Grove
land, Lake Mirnetonka, when 10 cot
tages were destroyed and six people
injured. Rags" gave the alarm and
ran through ti-e settlement, followed
by Mr.. Cox, barking and awaking the
sleepers. Tramp dogs are entitled to
a great deal more consideration than
human hoboes. Dogs are not tramps
by choice but from necessity, many Of
them having been kicked out Of homes
by cruel masters to shift for them
selves; but human hoboes follow a
rowing life because they are worthless
and too lazy to work.

In passing the bill to extend for one
year wartime passport restrictions, so
as to keep undesirable aliens and dam
gerous characters out of the United
States, the house took a most i'm
portant step. Millions Of aliens are
trying to get over from Germany,
Austria, Russia, Italy and other Euro
pean countries, and thousands have
already entered in consequence Of the
negligence of congress in not passing
immigration laws. While the time
for prohibiting immigration as pro-
vided in the house bill is short, it will
answer the purpose Of an emergency
brake and keep the undesirables out
for a time sufficient to permit con-
gress to enact more permanent law.

Offers Fine Lot Of Registered
Shorthorn Cattle at Auction.

On Saturday, October Is, the BEN

for this sale are among the leading.
ones in the state. Such well-known
Shorthorn breeders as Messrs. Rebuck,
Clarke and Chamberlain, all Of Mora,

their offerings are high class. These
gentlemen rank with the best IN the
state in Shorthorn blood lines, and
anyone who makes start in pure
bred cattle will make no mistake by
buying their stock.
This is the second semi-annual sale
of the Benton association. The first
one, held last June, was considered
one of the most successful staged in
the sale, and it is prophesized that
the sale on October Is will be fully up
to all expectations.

If resolutions passed by the Nebras-
ka Press association spell anything,
the columns Of the country press Of
the state have been closed to all free
government advertising. Success Of
the four Liberty loans was due more
to publicity given by the press Of the
country than to any other one factor,
yet government officials appropriated
not one cent to meet the expense. In
view Of the enormous pricesa which
government agents paid for other
necessities it is not surprising no
funds were available to finance Liberty
loan campaigns. So long as the pub
