MONTH BRINGS $500 NEGROES TO
OMAHA.
Find Jobs For Them.

Omaha, Neb, Sept. 30.-The influx
of southern Negroes into Omaha
last month totaled $500 and there
present, according to figures given
out by E. w. Pryor, president of
Colored Commercial club here.
A complete card index census of
all Negroes of the city, their present
and former occupation and past rec
ord is being compiled. The census
started two weeks ago and hundreds
of names have already been filed.
Negro churches are helping in the
drive and names of congregations
are being registered after services.
In connection with the census a
labor burea1~has been started and
has placed employees in various
firms throughout the CITY, Among
firms who have used this bureau to
get help are the American Smelling
company. the packing houses, Ath-
letic and University clubs, the
Thompson-B company and NJ.
Il. Smith and Company. Private
homes are being served with domes-
tics.
The bureau is situated at Columbia
hall, 2420 Lake street and lis in
charge of Mrs. Grace Hutton.
The Omaha Chamber of Commerce
is behind the movement. having sub
scribed $1,000 toward it. NJ. E. Smith
& Co. made an unsolicited contribu-
ton of 5000. Sam Caldwell, presi-
dent of the Coal Hill Coal company,
is taking an active part in the work.
The movement started in Omaha
and has already been reflected in
many other cities.
Investigation shows that the ma
jority of them have money and de-
sire to buy homes here, according
to the bureau, which states that a
desire to get property on $500
down plan is prevalent.

YOUR KIDNEYS

Did you ever stop to think Of your
kidneys being the great sewerway OF
the body? Much depends on them for
human health and happiness. All
your blood passes through the kid
neys. They filter the poison out
which is taken up by the blood and
emptied into the kidneys. Unless
your kidneys are strong and healthy
the whole body suffers. Weak back,
rheumatic pains, digestive ailments,
heart palpitation, nervousness. etc,
are prevalent

West VIRGINIA TOWN
RESEMBLES GARRISON
SINCE Mine STRIKE
(By Associated Press)

WILLIAMSON, w Va, Dec 18-
This thriving little city of some 1000
persons, the political and business
center of the great Mingo county coal
field where strike of miners has
been in progress since last July, pre-
sents, under military occupation, an
appearance similar to that of many
another town during the war.
Khaki, fast becoming a novelty in
most places, Is so common in the Will
hanson district that miners and noun
taineers no longer turn to look at the
passing soldier, or stand to gaze on
the sentry before Colonel Herman
Halls headquarters in the county
courthouse. Here in Williamson,
where there has been no violence, the
soldier carries his bayonet at his hip,
but in the region around Chatteroy
and Matewan, mining towns nearby,
every sentry PAGES his beat with bay
onet fixed.
Life Not Changed. ..
Military occupation and modified
martial law, made necessary by the
disorders of the past few months, have
little effect on Williamson. The peo-
pie go about their ordinary tasks as
usual. viewing the soldiers with indif-
ference, except at guard mount which
never fails to attract an appreciative
audience, willing and anxious to ex-
press its approval of the nations
lighting men.
Mercantile and banking interests
unite in the expression that the use of
federal troops at this time is~a good
thing, If for no other reason than that
they give a sense of security for ev
cry side of the industrial controversy
Immediately upon their arrival, the
provisional battalion from Camp Sher-
man took up the task of cleaning the
city of its physical and moral defects.
First they gave the courthouse thor
ough overhauling, and then turned
attention to the buildings taken over
for quarters. Then they went after
the streets, and about the same time
took up the moral question. Undesir
ables were notified that they could no
longer remain in the city, both tasks
being done by the civil authorities but
under the directing eye of the soldiers.
An interesting feature of the situa
ton which the military was compelled
to do was the disarming of those resi-
dents who insisted on carrying pistols
in violation of the West Virginia pistol
"totin'" law. This was solved by
sending deputy sheriffs into the dis
tricts where it was known large num-
bers of men were armed, each deputy
being accompanied by soldier. The
deputy confiscated the weapons, but
the soldier was right with him to see
the surrender was peacefully made.
Hundreds of pistols, rifles and shot
guns were obtained.

Nothing else can be expected until
the United States adopts something
of business like gasis in appropriat
ing money. And the first essential is
a budget system. A private corpora
ton, no matter what its magnitude
would be on the financial rocks in six
months if it conducted business the
way the United States does. Limit
less backing and the machinery to re-
QUESTION any amount needed to COW
or deficits are the fundamental rea-
sons that our government can con-
tinue as business 1t will never be
otherwise until something is done to
provide an appropriation center, a
head for all financial needs for each
department, instead of employing the
wasteful method now in vogue.
1t is probably due more to the re
trenchment policy Of the government
than any other single thing that big
reclamation appropriations are looked
upon with disfavor in Washington.
Economy is correct is properly en-
ployed but it certainly is not economy
to permit an empire to remain idle
Reclamation appropriations are loans
that bring staggering returns. They
increase Americas wealth, they add
to the sources of governmental reve-
nue.. Nothing is to be gained by de-
nying an arid west the funds essential

Rose unconsciously changes. The in

upon her and without knowing it she
is beginning to realize what a good"

stage where she really believes she is

in love with her and believes she is

In the United States the war has

there is no way to take it away legally.
The coal miners strike was legal but,
public opinion was against them when
they tried to force the mine owners to
submit to their demands at the ex-
pense of the consuming public.
There is not much difference be-
tween holding wheat from consump-

We suggest the governor of Idaho
look around his own home town to
see how much wheat is being boarded
there by outside. interests and that he
let the people know the results of his
