This is for some of you boys who

cd all that fun" 1t is a diary kept
by an Omaha member Of the One
Hundred and Twentyseventh
field artillery for his wife from the
time Of embarkation until the sign
ing of the armistice. He was a mem
Der of the ordnance corps and while
he said many very bad things about
army life in that little diary he is
still soidier-the war is over and
the only way to get the diary was
to promise to keep his name Sc
eret.
But just listen to thisl When he
started over he tells you he had
nothing but mutton stew and the flu
on his transport. And dead bodies
OF horses and men, 1t upset his
stomach and he got busy with his
diary-he had promised his wife
he would. On reaching England
things got little better and at his
FIRST dinner he had brandy. A little
more brandyl some ale and then
some wine. That was fine. The
diary says so. But boy, when they
started for France that was some
trip.
The train was lined up and the
cars marked. Forty Men" or
Thirty Mules" This Sammy says
they got 81 men in our box car
and the blamed thing had a flat
wheel. too" And so it goes until
the armisitice was signed when finis
is written in these words: Every
body is drunk today and don't
blame them"

TRIBUNE ASKS
VENUE CHANGE
in FORD CASE
Conditions in Detroit Held
PreiudiCiaI To Fair Trial
of Suit Against Chi
Cago Newspaper.

Detroit, Mich, Jan. 25.-In asking
for a change of venue from Wayne
county today counsel for the Chi
eago Daily Tribune, sued by Henry
Ford on a charge of libel, alleged
among other things that the large
number of Mr.. Ford's employees in
Detroit and the electioneering done
in his behalf during the recent SEN
atorial campaign were prejudicial to
a fair trial of the case.
Elliott G, Stevenson, of counsel
for the Tribune, represented to the
court that it is impossible properly
to prove his contention by affidavit
and asked to be allowed to present
proofs at a hearing in open court.
The petition for a change of venue
asserts that the plaintiff. Ford, tax
ing advantage of delays III bringing
the suit TO trial, spread broadcast
pamphlet designed to prejudice the
public and jurors who might be
called to try the case; that the
plaintiff also caused publication in
newspapers of misleading and un-
true articles for the purpose of pre-
senting the defendant in a false light
before the public as a patriot.
Other reasons advanced in the pc
tition were that Mr.. Ford employs,
directly or indirectly, from $4,000 to
$4,000 persons in Wayne county;
that during his senatorial campaign
he circulated misleading and untrue
articles on his attitude toward the
war and on preparedness for war,
and that by the expenditure of large
sums of money as candidate he
influenced many persons who might
therefore be expected to aid him in
every way, to the prejudice of the
defendant.
In conclusion the defendant al
leges that the list of jurors was inn
properly selected.
The Tribune's alleged attacks on
the Detroit manufacturer were
based on his alleged pacihsm. The
Tribune was among the leading
newspapers advocating prepared
ness for war at the time the Ford
peace ship sailed.

Duluth is Closed as a
Primary Grain Market

Local railroad officials have been
advised that an embargo has been
laid on Duluth, Mimi, as point to
wiicF coarse grain may be shipped.
In other words, as primary market
for corn, oats and barley, Duluth is
closed. Friday similar embargo
was laid against Milwaukee.
The, embargo against Milwaukee
and Duluth has little effect on
coarse grain shipments out of Oma-
la. In the past the movement of
coarse grain to these points has
never been heavy. They have taken
their grain largely from Minnesota,
northern Iowa and the Dakotas.

The association will maintain offices

be started within week.
For several years there has been
more or less wildcatting along the
rim Of the mountains west of Cali
patria, but lack of funds caused pros

logists who have investigated the oil
