America Out
But presently it became less prob
able that America would act for
armenia, GOT Ccnstansinople, would
stake any mandate whatsoever. Then
the Italians began to stake out their
claim along the Gulf of Adalia, the
Greeks appeared in Smyrna, with the
approval of the British and the French.
But there remained Constantinonle.
and presently the two !. Foreign Of
fees Joined battle, with the results
which we are beginning to see.
But it is characteristic of FOREIGN
Offices that they are interested only
IN the matter in hand. A\little thing
like consistency does not count. Thus
tor more than half a century the
British Foreign Office maintained the
Turk in Constantinople, to the great
scandal of civilization. To-day it ia
the French Foreign Office that would
have the Turk stay on the Golden
Horn and it Is the British which talks
earnestly about bundling the "Sick
Man Of Europe" back to Brusa or
Kanieh and the substitution of an in
sernational rule for that of the o.
manli.
Il NeiU Maneuuer
'his new dispute simply means that
two Foreign Offices are engaged Il a
new maneuver. The Turk seems use
ful to the Quai d'Orsay: Downing
Street finds him exactly the sort Of
hideous and offending anachronism
that he seemed to most Of the rest Of
the world whom Disraeli went to Ber-
I'm and brought back 'speacs with
honor" which amounted to obtaining
now lease for the Turk at his capital.
TO keep tho Turk In Europe, in Con-
stantlnopse, car mean only to nost-
pone any settlement Of the problem
of Asia Minor. But to turn him out
and substitute an international state
means little more than dressing ths
same problem up In fresh disguise.

Mrs. Gates succeeded her husband,
who while on his death bed summoned
the three commissioners of Stephens
county and asked them to elect his
wife to the office. They promised that
they would do so, and that is why Mrs.
Gates became the first woman sheriff
of the Southwest
! Mrs. Gates despite the fact that she
has accepted the responsibilities OF

the oil fields where there is an in
clination to disregard laws, is femin
inc and domestic. She had never be

The inside work of the office has
been assumed by the woman sheriff
who dictates its policies, while the
outside tasks of riding, serving papers
and hanging prisoners is delegated to
three male deputies. MY husbands

each step of his career" Mrs. Gates
said.

He went to Gilsum, N. H., for three
years, but returned to Ludlow in 1893
and built the plant tor treating wool

NEBRAskA's WHEAT CROP
over Four Million Short of Production
In 1919 II Is Estimated.

w 70 10 ~ 10 GoAtiid1Shs
Lincoln, Neb., June 24.-Federal and
state officials state that Nehraska's
wheat crop will reach 56,129,O00
bushels or 4,546,OOO under the 1919
production, s,tss.
a report, prepared by A. f., Ander-.
son of the Federal bureau and Score.
tary Leo Stum of the State Agricul-
tural Department, gives So percent as
the condition of the winter wheat crop.
and estimates it will yield 5O,S96,00O
bushels as compared to 54,997,O00
bushels last spring. Spring wheat
production, according to preliminary
estimates will reach 5233,000 bushels
compared TO 5,67S,OOO bushels In 1919.
These estimates are all based on June
II, conditions.
The June / condition of winter
wheat" says the report, "is very
promising and aside from possibilities
of rust. hail or lack of moisture, Ne
braska will harvest splendid crop
Most of the fields damanged by March
winds have fully recovered Much of
the wheat is getting very thick and
rank and conditions are becoming ideal
for the development of rust"
Continuing its review of crop con
ditions in the state, the report adds:
THE acreage Of oats is the same as
last year, Preliminary estimates fore
cast a production of 66,454,000 bushels
compared to 69,962,OoO bushels last
year.
Estimates on corn will be made in
July. An increased acreage is ex-
pected due to the fact that the small
grain acreage is considerable less than
last year.
