In the Oconce Creek section on the

rain and hail, and crops in certain
localities there are reported badly
damaged, especially by the hail,
which in some instances is reported
to have practically stripped corn and
cotton almost to the bare stalk. In
most cases. however, it has been our
observation that first appearances
are much worse than actual results

this will prove no exception to the

BY the Associated Pres.
BUENOS AH;ES, April 6.-The
American authorities are understood
. to be aroused by the action of the
port workers of Buenos Aires in
holding up the sailing of the steam
ship Martha Washington and threat

shipping Board steamers arriving at
and sailing from Buenos Aires with

gers The trouble arose over the
shooting of a fireman on the Martha
Washington last week by sn officer
of that vessel.
The belief is expressed that the
dispute will be taken up by the
United States with the Argentine
government through diplomatic chan
neis. unless the union withdraws it's
threat and permits the unloading
OF the Martha Washington. Should
such action be taken it is expecte ed
to assume the form Of request that
the government afford protection to
non-union laborites employed by the
Munson line.
1t is believed here that the en-
ployment OF nOn-union labor on
board steamships would likely pre-
cipitate a protest and q strike which
would tie up the entire port

THE OLD SWIMMING HOLE.

There is for the boy of today and for
the boys grown old in the announcement that
Thayer Kansas is to abolish the old-fashioned
swimming hole. Thayer turned over its city govern
ment to two grandmothers, three housewives and
a hello girl. They decided to make of Thayer a
model town. Their first step was to move against
that sacred precinct of the mae-the old swim
ming hole
The petticoat government be it understood, had
no objection to bathing. Every Who has had his
washed understands that. But it does protest
against the practice of boys in selecting a spot
along the river by common approval declaring It
to be "the swimming hole" and then proceeding
to rule the region according to the dictates of each
individual conscience
Boys, you know, believe in bathing a la
Adam They only determined look as they
dive from the stub of plank known as diving

said, "leave little to the imagination and much to

water streaming from their hair and dripping
from every toe. They dry their bodies on their
underwear put it on and go home as if nothing
had happened. 1t hasn't; nothing except what is
good for the boy and beneficial to the town
clothier.
But the feminine government of Thayer will
stop that-if it 1t will require Thayers
young manhood to wear bathing suits while swim
ming. The next step, of course will be the build
ing of bathing houses along the bank. The nerve

Now is when "a Teller needs a friend" We

BLANKET INDICTMENTS.

A bill defining libel including malicious
defamation of any religious sect was introduced
in the Michigan house of representatives Tues
day. The measure, of course, is designed to put
a stop to Henry Fords anti-Jewish campaign.
A statute of this kind might well be extended
to include malicious attacks any class of people
permitted to exist by law and subscribing to be-
liefs not contrary to morality. General structures
against any nationality, trade profession or
other lawful group of citizens should be action
able.
Only a fool INDUCES in such CONGRATULATIONS.

If Henry Ford knows of any crime committed

He has no right. however, to indulge in blanket
indictments against the entire race. many of
whose members have been an adornment to
modern civilization and source of pride to the
country that gave them birth.

PURE PROPAGANDA.

Enemies of Mexico have warned" the Amer
lean public not to be deceived by the reports of
American business who make trips into
Mexico.
1t is contended that the Mexican officials let
the visitors only the better side of the situa-
ton there and carefully conceal the seamy side.
If this is true why make these excursions into
Mexico at all? Their purpose is primarily to
ascertain whether conditions in the southern re-
public such to warrant the extensive re-
sumption Of trade with that country.
If our hard-headed, shrewd business are
not to believe what they see, why go to the ex-
pense OF the journey?
Sunday, seventy-five business of New Orleans
returned after a trade excursion into Mexico
lasting twentyseVen days. They reported that
everywhere they given hearty welcome
But don't believe all his, the enemies of Mex
leo say 1t is pure propaganda. These innocent,
unsophisticated business woefully de-
ceived. The horrible Mexcans pulled the wool
over their eyes.

her without trial Who'll give the first kick !?

FALSE FIRE ALARMS.

Several false fire aams have been turned in
as a result of the friction between the city COM
mission and the discharged fremen
The rumors that such plan was on foot
reached Wednesday. Steps were taken by
labor leaders to that no such thing occurred.
If it should develop that the ex-firemen had
anything to do with these methods we would be
greatly surprised. We feel certain that they did
not. We say this in fairness to them and not
through sympathy for the their contentious.
In such circumstances there always ir-
responsible persons who do such unwise and
illegal things their own initiative. Their acts
should not be wildly charged to organized labor.
Any man who will turn in false fire alarm
is criminal and a An effort should be
made to ferret out and punish the perpetrator
