No Action Yet On Sugar Relief Law

No Action Yet On Sugar Relief Laws.
Washington, Dec. 17.-Sugar relief
Legislation, passed by the House,
met with q temporary set back in the
Senate when an effort to supplant
the pending railroad bill In its favor
was defeatd Al to %. Advocates Of
the measure now expect 1t to go to
conference with prospect Of enact
ment before the holiday recess very
dubious. They had hoped to obtain
concurrence Of the Senate in the
HHouse bill.
Senator Harrison, Democrat, Miss
issippi, proposed that the Senate con-
cur in the House amendment, without
sending the bill to conference. Sem
ator. Randsell, Democrat, Louisiana,
objected, opposing retention of the
licensing plan particularly.
Urging his motion, Senator Harr-
ison reiterated charges that Congress
was responsible for failure to re-
lieve consumers from soaring sugar
prices. The sugar bill had been be-
fore the Senate since October 3, he
said, and the House, although the
bill originated in the Senate, passed
it within AZ hours.
Chairman Gronna of the Agricul-
ture Committee, urging that the
sugar measure be sent to conference
denied that Congress was responsible
and asserted that "the President was
.fiddling."
Immediate consideration of the
sugar bill, Senator Randsell warned
would result in prolonged debate as
he would oppose the House licensing
amendment to the end. The vote fol.
lowed

beauty spots in Iowa whinh he pro-
poses as places for state parks. Among
these is the region about Florenceville,
some distance north of Cresco and very
near the Minnesota state line. These
parks are for the purposes of recre.
alton, game preserves, and bird shell
ters. and others could be used for fish
culture and the propagation of fur
bearing animals. such as the muskrat,

THE OMAHA OUTBREAK.

When Omaha cools off it cannot fail to realize the enormity of the crime that has been committed within it's limits, the lack of common sense and the need of taking steps that. will make repetition of the mob rule in that city an lmpossibility in the fu- ture.
 Omaha like other cities in the mid de west appears to be suffering or to have suffered from racial differences. There may have been reason for the resentment over the small penalties imposed upon Negro law breakers and there may not since such may have been due entirely to prejudice, but whether 1t was or not it cannot fail to be. apparent to law respecting peo- pie that the attacks upon. innocent persons. the murder of one suspected of committing a crime and the de- flznce of and attacks upon the au- fhorities named to uphold the law and protect the cen munity to the best of their ability are not methods that would be expected in a civilized com T1unity for dealing with such condi- lions and are certainly not those that could be expected to inspire respect for the law in the future
 It will be interesting to note what sort Of a course Omaha will follow as the result of the outbreak the lynching, the burning of the public building, the killing of one and the wounding Of other people It is plain Iy the duty of that municipality to bring to the bar of justice not only those who participated but the ring leaders. those who stood in the streets exhorting the people to lynch law tao tics. and at the same time it cannot fail to be noted that the problem that confronts the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America in it's fight for social justice for the Negro is growing larger each day.

crops, 90 per cent of the strawberry and melon production and virtually the entire tuna and sardine fisheries.
 Their ability to do all this and beat out the natives is attributed to '"theif low standard of living. long hours of industry and close cooperation among themselves together with. the financial support of their home government"
 It is nothing new that the people of the Pacific slope have viewed with alarm the increasing number of Japs. They have been watching and bewail- ing it for long time. but so far as can be judged by the way in which the Japanese have bettered their po- sition there has been no very great effort to overcome it through com petition. Though there can be nc thought of lowering the American standard of living it might be possible to learn thing or two from them about the willingness to work and co operation that would stop this com plained of loss of important indus tries and business undertakings.

give Connecticut a reasonable time to avail herself of a national guard. but stated to Governor Holcomb that it would expect a decision by July 1st,
 1920. The department believes that
 will give Connecticut ample time to frameits plans. The department makes it quite clear that it's regulations are not discretionary but a matter of fed era1 law, congress having passed na- tional guard laws several years ago which are still in force. The depart ment has been in active correspond ence with the governor and adjutant gen eral of Connecticut, but existing re- Tuirements have not been and cannot he altered. Whenever Connecticut forms two troops of cavalry and they prove under inspection to meet the requirements they will be accepted as national guard troops as each specific part of a state allotment is accepted by the depa rtment when it passes in sDectien. The original allotment for Connecticut was six compan nies coast guard artillery. one battaIion infartrv two troops cavalry. one battalion field 3 rtillery. one ambulance company The q departme ent can do nothing more until the state notifies fl that one or more of these orga nizatiops are ready for i-snection. when it will send 'proner officials to inspeot, and if found satis- fr ctory srpch have passed insDe ection will he admitted part Of the national guard

STORIES OF THE WAR
"Noske's Bioodhounds.H

(Cerrespondence Of The Associated Press) The Wuerttemburg govern Hept recently recognized all the so- called reserve sicherheits companies as home guards and the War Ministry has turned them over to the Minister of the Interior. According to informa : tion in the hands of American army officers this is in accordance with Noske's plan to denlilitarize all home guards units so that the Allies will not dissolve these units under the terms of the peace treaty.
 Early this year many sicherheits companies were organized in Wuert temburg from remnants of old army units and have since been transferred into the Re.chwehr or new army. Later many reserve companies were organized on lines different from else where in Germany but on the same principle as the home guards or einwo- hnerwehr.
 German soldiers who recently pro- tested from Mitau on the eastern front against failure of the Lettish govern : ment to provide them land for settle ment in accordance with vague pro- n1ises of such land to all German sol diers who would help to repel the Bol sheviki have issued another statement declaring that they have been shame fully deceived and reserve the right to take such further steps as may be decided upon."
 Bitter feeling by the popula ton against the new German army con tinues in various parts of Germany, trouble having been reported from time to time in towns and villages where troops were to be garrisoned. In most instances the civilians object to the presence of the soldiers on the ground that they eat too much food.
 An armored locomotive which is part of the equipment of some Reich swehr or new. army units was sent from shop to shop in central Germany recently because the workmen refused to repair it they claimed it was a tool of "Noskes bloodhourds." Men in the railroad shops at Goettingen and Cassel refused to work on the. locomotive as well as employees Tn pri- vate machine shops i1 several parts Of the country. The last the An,eri- cans heard of the armored engine it was on sidetrack in Cassel while officers continued their search for workmen to make the necessary re- hairs

MENDMG HUSBANDS

"oh, Billy" said the little brown eyed bride to her young husband, when they were comfortably settled lover-fashion in the big chair .T'm that nobody has started to call yet. I can have you all to my self. and there is so much to talk about" I'm glad. too; Punkins," said the brand new husband,' because I like to hear you talk. Go ahead. Pm listen ing with both ears
 well, you know we had a special meeting of our club today. The speak club and what do you think was her subject ?''
 "Could never guess" answered Billy, idly.
 Husbands to Mend." indignantly declared the brewn-erAl bride. Just as if husbands were old socks or um breilas for wives to patch up. I felt so insulted that I thought of walking right out. but I decided to stay and show them that I. at least had a hus- band that didn't need meHding.
 'fThe lecturer began by saying, 'Husbands' faults are like old clothes "a stitch in time saves nine. Then she advised us to be constantly or>the lookout for the first signs of annoying habits and nip them in the bud before they had time to take root"
 Rather mixed in her met aphors, lazily remarked Billy.
 She actually had the face to tell us that, as she had tried four different husbands, she felt amply qualified to speak on the question of mems faults and she would answer any question propounded by the audience. After that there was a solemn hush and felt sure the members would rise in body and refuse to discuss their hus- bands. But that aggressive Mrs. Stout rose to the occasion, as she always does.
 My husband snores' she said. ad- dressing the speaker He snores un- til the neighbofs complain and refuse us to leave and there seems to be no place for us to go but desert isl and. What can I do about it?'

matter. A man may ride as many I-horses or hobbies as he is able to reill up together, sbut they are expectAHs to be all headed in the same directiosl if he designs 10 reach a definite and ll1- telligent goal. The poet Cowper has left us prac . tical example of an advocate who at tempted the discussion of both sides of question. in the famous court cause in dispute between Nose ys Eyes" as to which of them the spectacles belong ed.
 Readers of this tale will remember that holdingNthe said spectacles up to the court he argued.
 Your honor can see they are made with a straddle--op purpose to sit on the nose like saddle.
 Then shifting his side, as the lawyer knows how, he pleaded again on be half Of the eyes, but what were his ar guments few people know-and the world did not think they were equally wise.
 In fact this must ever be the verdict in any case of this kind-for in the eommonest matter today even lawyers are expected to choose their side and are sworn to advocate 1t to the extent of thetr ability until true and legal verdict is obtained.
 The man who argues both sides of a proposition also makes it impossible for any other one to follow him in the discussion and hence he loses the ben eft to be had by having the other side cleared lp by an opponent who might be viewing the subject from a more advantageous viewpoint than himself. And besides as there is scarcely ever any middle ground, none ever, in the consideration of moral quest on. the man who tries to please eryboly may end in pleasing nobody and be at some other loss into the bargain.
