IN EARNEST NOW

After all of Germany's turning and
twisting, it now begins to look as tho
she actually proposes to buckle down
to business and pay the war assess
ments imposed upon her at the peace
table. There can still be found in
Julesburg, however, more than one
citizen who is skeptical of Germany's
latest announcement. They argue
that she has something "up her
sleeve" and that she is only seeking
to deceive when she declares now that
she can and will pay in full, where a
few weeks ago she was protesting to
be on the verge of bankruptcy. But
Germany has decided to force her
citizens by law to drink less beer.
and to put heavier tax on that
which is consumed So there is rea-
son to believe that if she has grown
desperate enough to do this-the last
thing any one would expect her to
do-then she actually means business
and she is going to make an honest
attempt to pay off her war debts.

Of truth that one Of this ilk bobs up
right here in Julesburg every now and
then. Someone anxious to harm a
neighbor and too cowardly to come
out in the open furnishes the news
paper editor with information he has
no means of knowing is false. He
prints it in good faith, only to learn
later that it is untrue, that someone
has been injured, their peace of mind
disturbed or their heart made heavy
through the despcabe work of a
gossip or practical joker. The best
the editor can do is apologize, print
to even things up.

4 WISE LAW

Minnesota has cause to be proud
of her new law making it misde-
meanor to furnish false information
10 a newspaper. She has had plenty
of trouble from the practical joker
and the trouble-maker, and as a re-
suit of the fact that they could not be
brought TO justice many of her citi-
zens have suffered. So the new law
IS warmly welcomed
But Minnesota is not in a class by
herself in respect to practical jokers
and trouble makers. Every state and
every community has its share of
them. We have to admit for the sake

Coming To Majestic

Ed Lee Wrothe and his Best Show
is the Offering which will be seen
next Monday at the Majestic theater.
Mr.. Wrothe once again this year
comes before the public in the guise
of Higgins" the quaint character
which he originated years ago and
which the burlesque devotees learn
ed, long ago was sure TO cause them
laughter and merriment without
limit. There has never been a stage
creation in all burlesque which has
secured the hold on the public that
Higgins" has. Possibly 1t is be-
cause Higgins" is 81 human. Bur-
lesquers often make the mistake of
caricaturing too much, but "Hig-
gins" is a real, genuine human be-
ing such as you might meet in real
life. He is eccentric. II is true, but
not any more eccentric than many
OF the persons you meet in the
course of a days walk at random
about your city. Higgins" has
never failed TO prove the clay of
comedy in the hands of Ed Lee
Wrothe. and now he hobs up again
in an entirely new way. but just as
virile and fun-inspiring as yer. The
complications he gets into are such
that they produce the sort OF effect
that everyone has felt when he
comes out of a bad dream and gave
a gasp of relief to ind that IL was
only a dream.

before has Miss White appeared to
greater advantage than in this pro-

that her husband could not supply
