several weeks ago. As yet congress
has not given us any such laws.
1t looks now like higher production
and a lessened demand will knock the
blocks from under the high cost of
living before our national legislation
will be effective. When new ma
tional profiteering bills are finally
in force profiteering probably will
have collapsed of its own accord.
Of course this won't do the people
any good, but it will relieve many
legislators of their worries and by the
time the next election has rolled
around everything will be forgotten
and we will elect those men who
say they had good war record. And
to post-bellum standards it
will be difficult thing to find a
man who hasn't got a good war rec
ord.

Lincoln Will Give
Pershing Reception
- of Fitting Nature

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 27.-City off
Gals and members of various civic or
CARNATIONS are busy with plans Il
give a fitting reception to Gen. JOIN
J. Pershing when he comes for a
visit to this city in the near future.
The date of the generals visit is
as yet indefinite, but it is expected
that he will arrive here sometime dur
ing the early part of October. There
are several reasons for his visit here
First Lincoln is the home of his 10
year-old son, Warren, and the gen,
erals sisters, Miss May Pershing and
Mrs. M. D. Butler with whom young
Pershing makes his home. And in the
second place Lincoln was at one time
the home of the general himself.
It was here that General Pershlng
received an important promotion IN
his military career, when as com
mandant Of the University of Neb-
raska cadets, he was promoted from
second to first lieutenant. That was
back in the early ninetles, but
number of his old acquaintance OF
those DAYS are still here, and are
looking forward to chance OF again
meeting the man who led Americas
forces to victory in the world-War.
young Lieutenant Pershing' as
he was referred to in the days of
1923, is remembered by the wo-
men acquaintance he made here as
graceful dancer, but the men, for
the most part, remember him as a
stern military man. Even in those
days he had begun to win reputa-
ton as strict disciplnarian.
During the third year Of his career
as commandment of the university !
cadets Pershing organized a select |
for special work to obtain
of drill that could not be |
attained during the regular hours Of |
york. The company was first known !
IS the VARSITY Rifles" but was lat !
r changed to "Pershing Rifles" in
lonor of the man who inspired the
rganization.

THE PRESIDENTS ILLNESS.

III from over-exertion, President
| Wilson will be back in Washington
today to face the hardest part of the
treaty fight with handicap against
him. His doctor declares the presl-
dent will have to take long rest and
it is the intention of his advisers to
make him rest-if they can make
him cease working.
The presidents illness is due prl-
marily to the hardships Of his speak
ing trip. The great amount Of work
and worry with which he has con-
tended during the past three years
probably is as much responsible. He is
not a young man and though his
present illness is not serious, accord
ing to DR.. Grayson, it is serious
enough to cause great worry.
TO accomplish the tasks that he
has accomplished with united ma
ton behind him would have been
enough to tax the abilities of much
younger and stronger lnan. President
Wilson not only has performed Here
ulean labors but has performed them
against all sorts of powerful IN
fluences at home, against trickery and
scheming and all the obstacles that a
constituencies opposition could throw
in his way
To accomplish what is believed by
majority of people to be the best
thing for the United States and for !
the world, the president has had a |
ruthless opposition from the men
who should have supported him.
1t is a regreetable thing that the
United States as whole has not |
given the president its support in the
treaty fight. They chose him to lead
them and then powerful combination
of people and interests tried and are
still trying to block his path.
1t is thing extremely bad for this
republic that we can never have
leader. In no instance has the
United States ever given it's unan-
mouse support to chief executive.
It is only when our leaders by almost
superhuman efforts sweep aside OPP
position that they succeed.
The United States finds it more
difficult to do anything for its own
rood than any other nation in the
world. 4 HNM

Another thing a revival might do
is to get a lot of folks to thinking
that clean body and mind is con-
ducive to happiness and it might
even get some of the old timers in
the notion of being on the square
with their own families and cut out
joy riding with young women who
would gladly live better life if they
had chance
This would be great calamity for
the demand for gasoline and auto
tires might fall off and we must keep
up the demand for these commodities
even though we sacrifice our own
young girls to make up the joy-rid-
ing parties.
BY all means do everything you
can to keep the Bob Jones meeting
from gripping the town, for we might
get the gambling and lewdness out of
the town and just think how lone
some it would be for the cops not to
have pleasant place to drop in on
occasionally and see how the "boys"
are getting along.
Folks who violate the law are the
best spender in the world and will
pay high rents and stuff off lot of
money for the privilege of existing
and some deacon might have to re-
pair some old building and make it
ut for real folks to live in if the
law breakers moved out.
If real revival came to town and
the men of the town got together to
90 things worth while, there would
be lot of real capital attracted here
and new industries would be built up
and it would be safe place for in
vestments and to raise family and
what in the world would we do with
them. We might have to have an
other railroad or two and real estate
values might go up and the world
might hear about Pine Bluff.
No thousand times no-let's go on
as we are and keep the town in debt
so we can sweat and worry about fix
ing up the streets and paying fair
salaries to the officials, firemen and
policemen. s.

Tom Blodgett
Opposed to Revival

1t is a strange thing to me that
folks can see any good in union re-
vlval meeting. 1t is bad enough to
have revival in one denomination,
and tear whole neighborhood up
let alone having every church in town
go in cahoots and disrupt the whole
community.
Just look at the time that the
average denomination will loose dis
"cussing" the other denomination for
they will have to be polite enough to
all work together at least during the
union meeting.
1t would be lot better to keep the
separate churches away from their
nelghbor churches for if they really
get together they will find that there
are some folks who are really head
ing toward the Kingdom of God on
another trial than the on eblazed out
by their particular creed, and when
they find this out there wont be any
more fun giving the other denomina-
tons fits.
There is another danger in un-
union meeting and that is they might
make up their minds to actually get
together to make the community
fit place to raise the younger genera
ton IN and upset the plans of the
gang that don't care rap about the
morals of the community, just so they
can go on uninterrupted in lawless-
ness. and fill their pockets with the
sheckels that come from the red
light district and those that patron
ize it.
Then they might take notion to
get behind the officials of the CITY
and county and state and put enough
wholesome public sentiment in the
town to enforce the laws and make it
Improbable for the gang to live
here. They would go somewhere else
or quit the business and we would sell
a few yards less calico, and a few
less groceries.
BUSINESS must always come first.
II 1t takes the manhood of our Young
men and the virtue of our women to
make the money what's the differ
e,nce, just so long as we are getting
the coin.

NOT HELPING IRELAND.

The Friends of Irish Freedom and
Associated Societies" could serve Ire
land better in America than by play
ing into the hands of the Germans
by opposing ratification of the peace
treaty and the league of nations
covenant p,.I
Every real American is friend
of Ireland, and wants to see the
Irish people obtain every libertJN it
is good for them to have; we'd like
to see Ireland free, but the trouble
seems to be that Ireland's population
cannot agree upon just exactly what
they do want in the way Of self
government.
But while every real American is a
friend of Ireland, every real Ameri-
can stands first for America. And
the tactics of sDeValera and the So
called friends of Irish freedom" in
seeking to provoke discord in the
United States is resented by the
American-even the American just
one generation removed from "the
auld Sod"
The latest piece of anti-American
propaganda the "Friends of Irish
Freedom" have disseminated-prob
ably to the glee of the Huns-is a
page advertisement opposing ratifi-
cation of the peace treaty and the
league of nations covenant. 1t is as
much move in behalf of the Ger
mans, as tho promoted by the Prus-
slams themselves. In fact, it is so
anti-American that one wonders if the
funds paying for the advertisements
did not come from Berlin.
This advertisement asks: What
would Washington, jefferson and
Lincoln say about the league of ma
tons covenant? The attempt s
made to create the impression that
those great leaders of other days
would oppose ratification of the
peace league covenant.
What would Washington, Jeffer-
son and Lincoln say about the league?
If they were today alive and possess
ed of the keen mentality and brother
~ love they exhibited while alive the&
would do exactly as that great lead
err and friend of humanity, Woodrow
Wilson, is saying today. They would
urge ratification of pact designed
to secure weaker peoples in their
liberties, to prevent war, and which
does not take from America any
privilege except those America is
willing to surrender for the good of
the nation and the world-the prvil-
eye of making war without first seek
ing to adjust any quarrel by negotia-
ton.
That's what Washington, jefferson
and Lincoln would say. And the
sooner American politicians, pro-
Germans, so-called friends of Irish
freedom, and misguided democrats
cease their attempts to prejudice the
people of the United States against
world peace pacts, our form of gov
eminent land our policies-on the
ground that leaders of other DAYS
might not approve-the better it will
be for America and real Americans.

A AMERICAN PROHIBITIONISTS IN
EUROPE.

Leaders of the American Anti
Saloon league who have been pioneer
!, ing in England are said to be dis
concerted by the attention their eff
forts have attracted. Notoriety, or
publicity, if the latter term be pre-
ferred, was the last thing desired
by those missionaries. They had
planned to work quietly in the begin
ming until they had organized their
force sinto an invincible army when
pussyfoot would be discarded for the
laundering tramp of conquerors.
Their strategy seems to have failed,
says the St. Louis Post Dispatch.
A surprising angle of the situation,
however, is the reported position of
the American state department Ac.
cording to the London Daily Mail,
our state department will issue no
more passports to citizens bent on
rescuing Europe from the clutches
of Demon Rum. The time is not pro-
pitious for such crusade. In it's
present weller of difficulties Europe,
1t is feared, is in no mood just now
to welcome foreign regulators of 9th
er peoples habits. Should American
persist in such undertakings it is not
unlikely to influence European atti'
tude towards the United States un.
favorably.
But why should our state depart
ment exert it's great power to with
hold from Europe the, glittering and
manifold blessings of prohibition
Europe may be happy in it's servitude
to drink, but it is the happiness of
ignorance. If Europe could see how
beautifully prohibition is functioning
in America, how upon its entrance all
unrest has disappeared, all dissension |
vanished, all trouble departed; max
ing way for an era of brotherly love
and celestial serenity-if Europe
could see al THAT, its untutored pre-
JUDGE against the new enlightened or !
der would crumble quickly and it
would hail Drouth as a deliverer?
Or does our state department feel
that Europe has anxieties enough
aboard without taking on prohibition
