Mr., BRYAN and the "Wets."

Whatever of hope the "wets" may have of
securing modification of the laws to suppress
the liquor traffic will not be forwarded in any
degree BY onslaughts on William Jennings
Bryan. He is irrevocably committed to pro-
hibition, and he has all but pledged his party to
that end. In fact, he is reported to have an
nounced that the platform to be adopted at San
Francisco will contain "dry" plank. If that
be true, the malcontents may as we'll make up
their minds that the camel and the donkey will
together pull the democratic band wagon as far
as it goes in the procession next fall. The re-
volt to be headed by Governor Edwards of New
Jersey may come to pass, but it will not affect
the purpose of the great commoner, who set
his face towards the goal of dry America long
ago, and who has actually achieved what he
undertook to bring about The country is
definitely dry, and, as the Baltimore American
aptly says, the dying groans of the rum demon
are, not music but exasperating to the ears of
Mr. Bryan. ...

for president. I am for him, and
/ would like to see his friends do
right. I would suggest that they use
the ticket in England and put Art
Mullen as his advisor Hitchcock
called the American people, and so
did his paper, pro.German and pro-
Irish, when they refused to accept
the un-American league of nations.
Today the same Hitchcock is using
his influence to make the league of
nations as un-American as he can.
Nebraska has made many mistakes
in the past, but she will not make
this blunder.
A few questions for Hitchcock
Mullen boom for president:
Did Wilson lead the American peo-
pie into the war on ID points which
the allies agreed to and which We're
to preserve American independence?
What became of them?
The allies refused to accept them
when the war was over, and then to
try and console America for the
blood of our boys they gave us h
document called the league Of ma
tions, which was a damnable docu-
ment and that document would be
the rule of life in America today if
Hitchcock Mullen had their way.
When the people turn down Hitch
cock, they do not do so because he
is anti German or anti-Irish, but be-
cause he sacrifices American inter
ests for those of the allies.

STRIKE NOT THE REMEDY.

Threats of railroad strike, recently re.
| newed, are again disturbing business calcula-
tons throughout the land. IL is possible the
president may again interpose, as he did in the
coal strike and bring about suspension of
hostilities. Conditions vary widely, however.
In the coal strike the issue developed between
the miners and the owners OF the mines; in the
railroad case it is between the employees and the
government. Some reason for dissatisfaction
exists, because number of the points in dispute
have been held in abeyance for many months
by promises from the government that have not
been redeemed Now that the roads are on
point of being turned back to the owners the
unions inclined to force the issue, that they
may be i'll stronger position when the old rea-
tions are resumed.
A strike, however, does not appear to be
necessary. In the new law, which must become
operative before the roads can be returned, is
contained provision that looks to the con-
tinuous operation of all lines while differences
over any OF the conditions of employment are
being adjusted. The anti-strke provision has
been eliminated, but the wage board plan re-
mains. This is objected to by some OF the rail-
road managers, and is not entirely favored by
the unions, but it does present reasonable
way out.
While the uninterrupted service OF the roads
is vital to the public, it is equally important
that the employees be assured OF Industrial and
economic justice. Men must not becondemned
to endure unreasonable terms of employment
merely because their relations to the public are
of the peculiar type that make them indispensa-
BILE to the life of the nation. A way should be
found that will guarantee these men in return
for faithful service that they will also secure
ample compensation for that service. The pub
lie is as deeply concerned in this as it is in the
regular running of trains.
Large numbers of railroad employees are yet
underpaid when their wages are compared to
the earnings of men similarly engaged in other
industries. These may we'll afford to submit
their claims to wage board, relying on the
justice of their case to secure them relief By
doing this, they will place themselves in a far
stronger position than possibly can follow
strike, no matter how successful its outcome
from their viewpoint. When all the world is
trying to find foundation for peace, and looks
to arbitration as the chief means, the railroad
men can not very we'll afford to set an example
of further violence, no matter how unsatisfac-
tory their former experiences with the remedy
now presented

Bolsheviism Is Despotasm

There are faany highly significant side is
sue suggestions in the published statement of
British Ambassador Grey concerning the pro-
posed league covenant and the proposed Ameri-
can reservations to various articles of the COW
enant One of such suggestions concerns the
threat to world peace and world progress OF
Russian bolshevism. Ambassador Grey says OF
bolshevik government as it has been set up in
Russia that it is despotism, and he cites the
French revolution as sustaining his declaration
that all despotisms tend to become >militaristc.
In this connection he points out that the league
of nations without the United States, may be-
come little better than league of the allies
against a revival of militarsm i'll Germany or
against "a sinister sequel to boshevism in
Russia"
For the fact bolshevism began in Russia as
ruthless despotim and it has already become
militant despotsm--a despotsm kept in power
by armed force. More than so years ago Her
bert Spencer demonstrated with something like
mathematical conclusveness that socialism at
its best is but loose and spineless scheme OF
impractical visionares and that the inevitable
trend of applied socialism, or communism, is to
mi1itaristc system, with strong men in control
of drive power-a drive power that would use
guns to shoot to kill<when necessary TO main
tcnance of its authority.
IN Those infatuated fools generally referred TO
as "the pink tea socialists" who verge and
merge into radical socialism like lunatics
holding joy dance when their asylum is burn
ing The danger pertinent to bolshevism is III
what Ambassador Grey calls ''the sinister Sc
quel." The red brigahds OF bolshevism are frank
in showing this sinister sequel in their propa-
grandist literature. Democracy is representative
lit is of the people. Socialism. as now preached

plodes inside gasoline engine is a
mixture of little gasoline with a
lot of air. 1t is the carburetor that
makes the mixture.
Where the brass feed pipe from
the gasoline tank runs into the car
buretor it leads to a brass bowl for
liquid gasoline. A float in this bowl
connected with valve in the feed
pipe keeps the bowl just level full.
From the bowl the gasoline flows to
a tiny nozzle 50 regulated by a
needle valve that the gasoline just
reaches to the top of the nozzle.
The suction of the cylinders pulls
in an air current through the car
buretor's air inlet. This current
passes over the nozzle and picks up
the particles of gasoline just before
it goes on into the cylinders.

lets in more air so that the mixture

increased. When the motor is too
cold for the gasoline to evaporate
quickly, there is a choker which re-
duces the air intake and enriches

The throttle OH the steering
wheel and the accelerator pedal
merely open and close a valve at

lat the amount of mixture that may

IF the motor is to run best the
mixture must be just right. There
must be just enough gasoline and
just enough air. The amount of
gasoline may be regulated by slight

Influenza Epidemics,

A British doctor, writing In the Lon
don Lancet last November, calculated,
as result of his observation Of infiu-
enza epidemics, that one occurred
every thirty-three weeks, though those
falling in mild weather were so slight
as to be hardly noticeable. He pre-
dIcted that the next epidemic would
occur in January or February Of this
year, sixty-six weeks after the severe
epidemic of 1918. If his observations
and theory are correct the next two
should come In the mild weather Of
next September and Of April. 1921.
Another one would then be due in
December, 1921. But as the germ caus-
ing the disease seems to be losing its
viruIence there is ground for hope
that, in spite Of the defenselessness of
medical science in combating the cpl
demic, the worst is over'for a good
many years.

The first booksellers catalogue IN
the English language. so far as Is
known, is one bearing a date of 323
years ago. 1t was issued by Andrew
Haunsoll Of Lothbury, England. and
contains an elaborate dedication to
Queen Elizabeth. The first booksellers
in England were migratory peddlers,
who carried their small stock on their
backs, and thus may more properly
be called pioneer book agents.
In the course of time some Of the
more prosperous havkers of literature
set up small stalls or booths and thus
became known as "stationers." This
is the origin of the word stationer, now
generally applied to dealers in "sta-
tionery," which has come to mean writ
ing materials, paper, pens, ink and
similar articles. Booksellers in Eng
land were for centuries treated as
near-criminals and subjected to many
restrictions, which were not wholly
removed until 1853. The booksellers
Of both England and America now have

PANTS

A boy in Kansas has been suspend
ed for reading the following essay on
Pants.
Pants are made for men, and not
men for pants. Women are made for
men and not for pants. Pants are
like molasses-they are thinner in
hot weather and thicker in cold. The
man in the moon changes his pants
during the eclipse. Don't go to the
pantry for pants, you might be mis-
taken. Men are often mistaken in
pants. Such mistakes make brooches
Of promise.
There has been much discussion
as to whether pants is singular or
plural. Seems to us when men wear
pants they are plural; when they
don't wear any pants it is singular.
Men go on tear in their pants, and
it is all right. but when the pants go
on a tear. it is all wrong. Guthrie

LastNight'sDreaIns
What They Mean
DID you DREAM OF THE DEAD

~ REAMS Of the dead are exceed
~ ingly common and are generally
very vivid; which is ascribed by Ellis
70 the fact that In such dreams two
opposing groups of memories contend
in one of which our relatives or
friends are alive and in the other
dead; and the effort OF the dream con
seriousness to adjust these two groups
causes an intensity in the dream emo
ton experienced. The conflict Of these
opposing forces is the reason that fire.
quently In our dreams OF the dead we
are at first perplexed to find our dear
ones with us and say to ourselves:
"But he (or she) is dead" But the
STREAM OF images which represents
them as alive comes from an older
and richer source, Is the more power
full" 50 that IL oyercomes the other
and the dream consciousness seeks to
adjust the difference by some such
thought as that the person dreamed OF
is not really dead but was only report
ed to have died. Sometimes the older
emotional stream IS so much the
stronger that we do not experience
this perplexity. In all cases where
we see our dead In dreams as alive
our dream consciousness accepts It as
a fact that they are alive.
To the mystics to dream that we see
the dead alive is accounted very ia
vorable omen, especially II they speak
to us. If they look reprOachfully at
US. or demand OF us an accounting OF
some OF our acts, II is a sign that we
had better hasten to correct our lives
and take greater heed to our behavior.
In this connection the words Of Doctor
Radcliffe, the eminent English investi-
gator. are interesting. He says: You
are more or less at liberty TO believe
that the dead and living may exist to-
gether In q world Of spirit in which
the so-called living are less living than
the sO-called dead; and that, in fuct
the dead may command. as they do IN
dreams" For long time material
istic writers, Herbert Spencer among
the number, have attributed the belief
Of primitive man and savages in q
spirit world to dreams Of the dead. |
Before 1895 no attempt was made at a |
scientific analysis OF dreams OF this
type but they are now attracting much |
attention.
