BOTH CONFESS. But
LATER REPCDIATE

Cole and Gramncr were convicted
in 1917 OF the murder OF Mrs. Lulu
vogf. whose body was found on a
rural road near Palmer. Neb.. July 3.
Both men made confessions. and later
repudiated them. Cole said Gram
mcr promised him $500 to kill his
motherinlaw.a
The fight for their lives has been
made by two young Lincoln, Neb-.
attorneys. John NJ. Priest and Stcrl-
ing y MUTT. Several OF the reprieves
have been TO permit appeals and mo
tions for new trials.
One was because there was no
equipment on hand at the time to
olcctrocute the men.
Another was because The cxecu-
toner who had been engaged could
not come.
Another was to test Grammcrs
sanity
The last one was because the state
could not secure the dismissal OF the
appeal before the ST Louis court OF
appeals before the date set
The execution IL now set for Fri
day. June 4. Grammer's wife is still
working TO save his life.

A certain Republican paper says
1.-THE United States is technically at
war with Germany today, simply be-
cause of the vote of the minority in
our National Congress" The real
reason is, brother, that Boss Lodge
and his followers would wreck the
ship of state, rather than have a
Democratic go down in history as
having put over" the greiAest and
most beneficial piece of statesman
ship of modern times. This same
paper is continually harping on the
fact that Woodrow Wilson has done
so much, while at the same time, it
seems to utterly fail to see the tre-
menduous duties that its hosts in
Congress have failed to perform.

When the Republican party goes
before the nation this fall with a
plea for votes, the only reason ii
can present for asking q continuance
of power. is that it may secure an
endorsement of its yasrancy. Their

and hundreds OF thousansd of the

overturn the great work of a Demo-
cratic president, and to restrict his

TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES

Three brothers in the third and
fourth grades organized firm, Wills
& Wills Company, to meet the current
expenses of the new term-book rent,
crayons, drawing pencils, tablets, ETC.,
which makes considerable total for
three. Wills & Wills Company con-
tracted to clean the cellar in the
building just south Of the one de-
stroyed by fire Sunday night. Their
estimate was five dollars, but the work
was so well done that Mr.. James
Nelson, who awarded them the cellar
contract, presented them with bonus
Of one dollar. Tuesday morning
Loren Wills, the senior member of the
firm, showed with justifable pride
check for six dollars drawn on the
First National Bank. The liabilities
of the firm have been met for the pres
ent term and nest egg kept, which
will increase with future contracts.
Our good wishes go with this ener-
getic business firm.
The third and fourth grades are
very glad to welcome q group Of sec
ond graders, as they sent eight Of
