Bull FIGHT RESTORED

The restoration of the bull fight
in Mexico will no doubt be regarded
generally in other countries as a
retrograde step.
Everybody rejoiced a few years
ago when the cruel and bloody sport
was prohibited, and the fact was
taken as evidence that at last the
Mexican people were in earnest in
efforts to raise popular ideals and
refine public manners
One of the reasons for the return
to the bull fight, the most exciting
an entertaining public spectacle, is
probably the fact that it was an old
institution, and just now the Mexi-
cans are disposed to show their con-
tempt for foreign customs or pre-
judices by putting emphasis on
their own. There is marked re-
dictionary tendency in the patriotic
manifestations of the people, and
the fact alone that the bull fight is
condemned in the United States as a
brutal and demoralizing form of
entertainment would be sufficient
to incline the Mexicans to testify
their old love for it, 1t has per-
sisted in this branch of the Latin
people from the days of the old
Roman arena when no spectacle so
pleased the people as bloody con-
tests between wild beasts or between
men or between men and beasts. A
thousand men have found their way
to popularity and fame through the
bull ring. The matadors have been
the heroes of songs and stories.
The bull fight has been the origin of
many romance in high Spanish So
ciety.
The sport is returning to vogue
in Mexico apparently with some new
accessories, or nearly new. For
there is a feminist movement in
Mexico, as everywhere else, and
women are aspiring to bull ring
honors. For the first time wom-
an matarod appeared in the bull
ring in western Mexico last Sunday,
and she vanquished four bulls. Thus,
it is seen, the women aspire to
slaughter whole herds at time.
Women have indeed distinguished
themselves at this sport in the
past, but they have been as rare as
female warriors. IL the exploit of
Sonora Regina Martinez at Mexicali
last Sunday sets a precedent, then
beauty and beast" in another
com bination, will be familiar in the
bull ring, and the romances, no
doubt, will be as many as before, the
seniors doing first the applauding
AMI then the counting, or both to-
gether.

MAY EFFECT COMPROMISE

Republican and democratic SEN
ators working for a peace treaty
compromise conferred their attention
at Washington Monday on a plan,
said to have been accepted by the
mild reservation republicans and a
number of democrats, for ratifica-
ton with three notifications in the
IA reservations approved by the SEN
ate majority at the last session.
The three changes, which some
senators believe would make the
reservations acceptable to two-thirds
deal with the preamble declaration
that the qualifications must be ac-
quiesced in by the other powers,
with Article X and with Shantung.
The mild group believe that SEN
ator Lodge, the republican leader,
will be willing to make these chang
es and Senator Hitchcock. leader OF
the democrats, also will be satisfied
with it. II was said, however.
that neither of the party heads in
the senate had yet expressed a final
opinion.
Under the new preamble sug-
gested the senate reservations
would be regarded as accepted by
the other parties to the treaty unless
specific objection were made within
a limited time. The wording of
Article X reservation would be chag-
ed so as to eliminate the language
which President Wilson said he
would regard as rejection of the
treaty and to substitute an affirma-
tive declaration that the articles OBJ
legations are accepted with the un-
Outstanding that future congresses
shall be at liberty to decide ques-
tions of peace and war. Language
which some senator's have regarded
as offensive to other powers would
be modified in the Shantung reser-

The declaration framed at con-

declared it the sense of organized

zoo Bushels of-Corn PeygAcre

On a farm near Nemaha, between
Storm Lake and Sac City is pond
that covers about 40 acres. The
bottom OF the pond If level and water
to a uniform depth OF around two
feet gathers there during the rainy
season In 1895 came the long dry
season. Tire water disappeared
early and Thomas Burroughs who
~'sen owned the farm, went over the
he'd of the pond with a die and
qted the tract to corn. The sea-
twas just right for such pro-
S--s-Rre and the result was record
breaking yield Of corn, an average
OF about 200 bushels to the acre.
Nothing like it has ever been known
in that section nor any other for
that matter, nor has it been possible
