Really Not Their Fault.

Marjorie and Clea are prim little
sisters, and as there is a baby brother
mamma has some trouble putting on
the last touches and getting them
away to school mornings. In the in
terest of discipline their teacher was
obliged to lecture them on hardness
and next morning they were late as
usual She waited for them at the
door, trying to look stern, but Clea
upset all her dignity and cut her lee
ture short by observing: We'll, we
can't help it if you ring the bell too
soon"

Above figures show the result Of
three days straw vote Of The Bee
on the peace treaty and the league
of nations issue.
As the league of nations is a part
of the peace treaty in its present
form, SIS people oppose the treaty
as it now stands against, but "a ia
vor it and urge a speedy ratification
by the senate. The straw vote, as
conducted by The Bee, shows an
opposition to the peace treaty Of
better than six to one.
About one-fourth of the signers
of coupons are women, a sure sign
that the 10th century woman is we'll
acquainted with political issues and
takes great interest in national and
international affairs pertaining to
the safety and national integrity of
the country.
All Walks of Life.
Men and women of all walks of
life are the signers of the coupons
with farmers, lawyers and ply
sicians predominating.
A great many petitioners enclosed
letters with the coupons explaining
their stand on the two issues. Many
of the letters opposing the league of
nations come from dyed-in-the wood
democrats, who do not fail to ex-
press their opposition to the ad-
ministration's issues. Only one Of
the 81 persons favoring the ratihca.
ton of the peace treaty in its pres
ent form expressed his opinion on
the subject. He wrote as follows;
II favor ratification of the peace
treaty without reservations. I also
favor adjustment of the senate;
the way some of the senators are
talking.-Joseph Perknl, haywood,
Neb."
From the great mass of letters op-
posing the peace treaty or the
league of nations issue, we quote the
following:
Says Sold Our Birthright.
Moses Bradford, o9l2 South
Twenty-e eighth street, city: "As it
looks to a descendant of the Pill
grims of the famous Mayhower we
have sold our birthright and soldiers
to Europe and cancelled our Decla-
ration of independence. We are
big enough to attend to our own
business without the consent Of eth
er Europe or Japan"

operation of a private and very
complex business. 1t enacted those
would be to the great injury of not
only the packer but the live stock
producer and the consumer as we'll.
Refused Federal Hearing.
"The Cudahy interests have fire.
quently requested the Federal Trade
commission to give us hearing or
to exhibit any evidence which they
may have to justify their charges
against us, and no such opportunity
has been allowed us.
Most Of the statements of the
federal commission are unfair and
erroneous. For example, in their
present report we understand that
they class the Wichita Union Stock
yards as being one of those con-
trolled by the big five. They are not
so controlled and never have been.
Many years ago our company was
solicited by the stock yards COM
pany to take over small plant at
Wichita, and to aid in establishing
the market there. We received a
bonus of stock in the company as
was usual at the time and entirely
legal. We have spent hundreds Of
thousands of dollars developing the
plant and the market, and we believe
that no citizen of Wichita, nor any
live stock shipper to that market
will take any other position than
that our interests there have been
largely to the benefit of the town
and the live stock shipper. OF
course it has been successful. That
is what we are in business for.
Neither Armour, Morris, Wilson nor
Swift have any stock interests in
the Wichita yards. In all the re-
mainiug list Of stock yards markets
our company has no interest at all
with the exception of few shares
in ono locality, but the charge is
made that the big FIVE control them
all. This shows how figures may be
juggled and false impressions Gre
ated. Ownership of stock in stock
yards company gives no control
over the market price or the COM
mission men there"
Repeat Same Charges.
Louis F. Swift, president of Swift
and company, referring to the re-
port of the Federal Trade commits
sion said:
The Federal Trade commission
is issuing its report piece meal, ap-
parently with the idea of keeping UP
continuous agitation against the
packing industry. This latest broad
side, according to such report as !
have seen, repeats the same old
charges, contains the same misrepre-
sentaticn, and does our industry the
same injustice, as in previous re-
ports"
"In the ownership of stock yards
we arc proud of the fact that we have
improved marketing methods and
thereby encouraged greater live
stock production. as ev,-v impair
tial student of the problem knows.
Ownership of yards gives a packer
no control of prices or trading
methods.

producers of the world. | can not
discern a grain of real justice and
genuine democracy in either the

covenant. The adoption of them in
their present form will be an ever
lasting disgrace to modern civiliza-
ton. They should not be merely
amended, but be entirely rewritten
by competent delegates at new

some neutral place"
Emil Cosart, South Omaha,
signs his letter a Belgian-American
and writes: II am agains the peace
treaty for many reasons. One Of
them is the secrecy with which
President Wilson tries to keep the
truth about the pact away from the
American people and even con-
gress."
John w. Yeager of the Hartford
Fire insurance company, Omaha
branch. writes in part as follows IL
freely admit that the idea of a
league of nations is good, but from
a study of the peoples of the ma
tons, coupled with their traditions,
racial sentiments ond geographical
locations, ! am forced to the con-
clusion that the league under the
present draft at least is impractical
bic and will mean that large and
unnecessary burden shall rest upon
our shoulders with no benefit to be
derived therefrom for us"
Peter H. Lubisher, Forty eighth
avenue and R street, South Side, ex-
presses the belief that at least eight
tenths of the thinking people of
America are opposed to the league.
From time to time The Bee will
continue to publish extracts from
letters from readers, expressing
their opinion on the peace treaty and
the league of nations issue, and also
publish the status of the popular
voting contest on these issues.

The new Ak-Sar- field at Six

Extreme heat had no effect on
the attendance at The Wandering
Juice" The big crowd of last light
came from Carson, Elliott, Hender-
son, Griswold. Traynor and Lewis,
Iowa towns. They came in automo-
biles ard by train and the Elliott
people brought brass band with
them which did some good work in
the entertainment.
The membership reached 3,752 and
the board of governors announced
that the time limit has been extend
ed TO August IS. Anybody with a
good reputation and ten bucks can
become a knight of Ak-Sar-Ben up
to that date and cordial welcome is
extended to ALL In fact, the well
come is more than cordial.
The show of last night was up to
its usual lofty standard in spite of
the heat. Charles Gardener took
the part of Satan" while Henry
Dunn, the usual interpreter of that
role, sat in the audience and ap-
plauded. Oscar Lieben tried his
hand at John Barleycorn," and

tomobile.
Colonel Mcclure, commander OF
the transcontinenal motor trans
port train of the United States army,
which reached Omaha today, was
another speaker. John Morris OF
