NO GRIEF.

In these times of high finances con
sentative investors find first mortgages
on improved farms, worth three times
the amount loaned, maturing within a
few years, earning six per cent net,
free from strikes and Independent of
organized labor, about the only abso-
utely safe investment, always worth
1000 and no grief.
There is no security on earth like the
earth itself The last industry to be
paralyzed by war and the first to re-
cover from it's effects is the vast bust
ness Of supplying the worlds food.
Twenty-eight years continuous ser
vice in Mineral Point without the loss
of a penny to an investor.

BLACK EYE FOR OMAHA.

Omaha was mob-stricken Sunday
night last. As q result a negro was
taken from Jail, his body perforated
with bullets and with a rope around his
neck the body was dragged through the
principal streets until little was left
but the trunk; the mayor of the city
was seized by the mob and rope
placed around his neck and he was
jerked around and battered and now he
lies in q hospital in a serious condition;
the court house, valued at $1,000, 600
has been damaged to the extent of
100000 by fire while the damage to
valuable records cannot be estimated.
The cause of this most horrifying
case Of riosing rs because of the attack
ing with base intent of a white girl by
a negro The mayor was supposed to
have the scys of the jail wherein the
negro was lodged that it was in his
power TO surrender the negro to the
mob. Two others were killed and sever
al severely hurt
1t is deplorable what one bad indi-
vidual, white or black, may bring about

THE first heard OF one Joseph E..
Davies was about six years, ago. and
then as wire pulling Democratic poll
tician. The second time he came to
light was as a Wilsonian candidate for
a seat in the u. s. Senate to represent
Wisconsin. He was heralded as 100 per
cent loyal and Heaven inspired. The
last heard Of him was in Judge Lands
court when he was forced to hand back
81, 10000 for his supposed influence in
government channels, not to the adj
vantage of the government that any
body knows of. All these startling
events IN Mr.. Davies career having
taken place in so short a span of years,
should "pygmy minded" citizens be
blamed for wondering why the fellows
who shouted themselves hoarse in harp
ing about Davies 100 per cent loyalty
and his being a man of "acid test, are
now as silent as the bronzed ass Of
Venice

For thee two years ago
And now you quite refuse to go,
Or won't or can't.
Through town and countryside,
You were my JOY and pride;
All, happy day.

Thy nice white tires so new,
Now you are down and out for true
In every way.
To the old rattle box,
Came many humps and knocks.
For thee greeve.
Frayed are thy seats, and worn,
Badly thy top is turn,
The whooping cough affects thy horn

Thy perfume swells the breeze,
While good folks choke and sneeze,
AS we pass by.

Now everybody's yelling "Ice"

Thy motor has the grippe,
Thy spark plug has the pip,
And woe is thine.

Ague and kindred ills,
Endeavoring to pay my bills
Since thou were mine.

BISHOP TAKES RAP
AT WILSON LEAGUE.

DIR. Quayle on Present Crisis In
Patriotic Address at Columbus, o.
1--WE are facing a crisis in American
affairs, which may mean the destruction
Of orr republic" said Bishop William
A. Quayle, in his address on "The Pres
ent Crisis" at the First Methodist
Episcopal church, Columbus, Sunday
afternoon, Sept. H. The issue con-
fronting Americans is whether or not
government by threat shall replace de-
mocracy in the United States,
"At the present time everything we
say or do is divided into two gendefs.
pro- Wilson or anti Wilson. | am neither
pro- Wilson or anti.Wilson, but pro-
American Other nations of the world
have republican Instincts and have come
out Of the world war with more democ-
racy than they had when they entered.
America, supremost republic that the
world has ever produced, is less demo-
cratic now. than before the war. One
cannot speak his mind on any subject,
without somebody saying, He's talking
against the administration maintain
the right of an American citizen to
speak untrammeled on any subject,
against whoever or whatever please,
provided ! am speaking for and in
favor of America. Who shall tell an
American TO be silent
During the war we were told not to
speak, not 70 think, but to stand be-
hind the President. And the President
has been proved wrong on every main
contention he has backed, and so often
he has shifted his position on American
affairs that to stay behind him required
the agility Of an acrobat. And now
when peace treaty is being considered,
which should be the most equabe in the
history of the world, we are told again,
Don't think, speak, or have an opin-
ion. say the republic is facing a
crisis and there will be no republic left
unless we have a chance to speak.
I'VE are told that the peace treaty
must be passed at once before we have
had a chance to decide whether it is a
just peace or not. DO you realize that
America was the only great nation not
represented at the peace conference?
Mr. Wilson as his personal representa-
tive attended, and none of their decisi-
ons were submitted for the approval of
the United States. through Congress.
Lloyd George was recalled to England
to explain his position; Orlando re-
turned to Italy on demand of the peo-
pie to account for some of his actions;
Clemenceau gave his reasons to France
for every important step; but Mr.. viii
son went ahead and decided America g
position without giving America a
chance to declare what her position
was And now he says Congress must
ratify the treaty as it stands or we will
be plunged into war with other nations
81 am anxious for peace but want
no peace until am sure that it is just
and wise. We in America know nothing
about why certain clauses are in the
treaty. Robert r. Lansing, Secretary
of State, when asked to explain certain
points in the treaty to the Senate,
stated he knew nothing about that mat
ter and that Mr.. Wilson must be con
suited We cannot in justice to the
American republic take the word of
any one man under heaven that this
treaty we are asked to swallow whole,
is the best possible"

THE people of this community were
informed as recent as last May that
"Mr. Wilson says he is an utter demo-
crat; and he is right. cutter democ-
racy" a. Wilson proclaims and as Will
son enacts are two distinct propositions
for solution. and an exacting caution as
to which you follow is necessary in es-

Only Concrete Roads Are
Good, Says Commissioner
Heavy Cost of Maintenance
Makes Other Types Too TX.
pensiyc. Greene Declares

ALBANY, July 20.-That the state
has been wasting money for years in
building roads of various types other
than concrete was stated yesterday by
Highway Commissioner Frederick +;
Stuart Greene, who showed By records
of his department that cighty-one miles
of highways built in eighteen different
counties cost S955,S7s.76. and in seven
years since their completion in 1912
S102 .S72.99 has been spent in maintain
ing them.
In Wayne County road 3.S7 miles
long cost $26.515.09; the maintenance
charge in seven years was $37 062 49,
"The waterbound macadanl road is a
thing of the past and the penetration
Greene to-day. THE construction Of
card board roads is bound to lead the
state into serious financial embarrass-
ment During my term of office |
shall build only roads of the most
improved type.
"Concrete roads are the best and the
cheapest in the long run. During the
past four years 20S first class concrete
roads cost $l3S a mile a year for main
tcnance. During the same period 2,451
miles of waterbound macadam roads
cost $9l q mile a year to maintain.
New York state proposes to get the
greatest mileage of roads for the leas t
cost. Concrete roads will do away
with excessive maintenance charges
and viii stand the tremendous amount
of heavy motor traffic"
