for anyone to mention certain sub
jects?" He just wanted to fix it so
they would be argueing there all
the rest of the summer. He really
dident speak for or against, but
he did speak for arguments sake.
He wanted to see the whole thing
dragged out and start the split in
the Democratic party right away.
He couldent see any use in waiting
till voting time to split. Get it over
early and see how they stood. But
Joe and the others were for late
split.
But they finally got the thing
kinder half way Strengthened out,
and then somebody proposed that
they raise six million dollars for
the coming Campaign. Well that
flabbergasted not only one side
like prohibition had, but all of EN-.
Six million for the Democrats?
Why they were becoming Republi-
canized over night. If they had six
million they wouldent want the
Presidency. Where was they going
to get it? Nobody knew any more
about that then they did about
where was prohibition coming
from. But they decided it was a
good fantastic idea, so they are
now on the search for it, and the
Republicans all laughed and had q
lot of fun at the Democrats plight,
cause they are so united on the
subject of prohibition.
They can't even find out how
Hoover stands, much less the rank

wonderful to have something come
lup in country where you can find
out just how many political cow
ards there are?

that's getting a trip at Government
expense. They investigate every
thing from bird life to prehistoric
Manuals and radio wave lengths.
Mr.. Hoover seems to be doing
a little better since he got rid Of
the Garg. A President just can't
make much showing against that
Mob. They just lay awake nights
thinking up things to be against
the President on.
Well couple of weeks ago the
Democrats had a preliminary row.
This one was just a rehearsal for
the big one. 1t had nothing to do
with anything in particular.
Well the Democrats met in Wash
ington recently to dig up ways
and means to get dough to car
ry on another campaign. They had
just called the gathering to order,
nd said, eve will take up the bus
mess of the meeting" and some
body blatted out, "What about pro-
hibition?" and oratory, denuncia-
tions, threats and almost mayhem
was committed before they could
get the house to order. Then to
add to the dog fight, Mr.. Raskob
got Up and delivered himself of
speech that he had been cooking
UP all winter. He told EN- it was
just his idea and that it wasn't
made in the nature of an Amend
ment, it was just made as per-
sonal suggestion. Well that dident
matter what it was made as, it
could have been told as dream,
or fairy Story. The minute it
was told, Democratic bedlam, (by
the way what is bedlam anyhow?)
well it broke loose. It always does
when anybody is writing about
something that comes up quick.
My mighty good friend Joe Rob
inson was on his heels in a jiffy.
Joe was for Party Harmony, and

Course Joe was right. It shouldn't

ONION SURPLUS SEEN

The 1880 onion crop was the
largest ever produced and record
low price was received by growers.
In view of the difficulty in mar
keting a crop as large as that of
1880, the United States bureau of
agricultural economics suggests
that the total onion acreage, in the
late crop states, especially, be ma
terially reduced, according to Rob-
ert Cowan, extension marketing
economist, Pullman.
As Washington ships from so
to 90 per cent of her onions in mid
season from July to October, the
growers are advised to take into
consideration the effect of the
heavy supplies of storage onions
and the prospective large crop of
early onions this year.

BY FREDERICK oECHsNER

BERLIN, February 2S.-Debt, that
specter which has played too lively a
role for comfort in the affairs Of most
German nobility since the revolution,
has now claimed the ancient Glienecke
Palace, near Potsdam, property of the
"Red Prince" Friedrich Leopold of
Prussia The magnificent old estate
is to be turned into a week end hotel
under lease for the pleasure Of Ameri-
can and other tourists and the furni-
ture and art treasures are TO be sold
outright by auction.
Prince Friedrich Leopold once the
Tealthiest member Of the Hohenzol-
lern family and richer than the Kaiser
himself, is son Of the late Field Mar
shal Prince Friedrich Karl Of Prussia.
victor in many battles against Den
mark, Austria and France in the last
century.
The father, originally yclept "the
Red Prince" because, even as field
marshal, he would wear no other uni
form than the scarlet tunic of his
faYorite regiment Of hussars, collected
a large part Of the magnificent an
tiQueS which are now to be sold by
his son. The latter derives his title
of RED Prince" not hereditarily from
his father, but because on the day Of
the German revolution November 9,
1919 he, a member of the royal Ho-
henzollern clan, hoisted a red flag
over Glienecke in sympathy with the
republic.
This audacious and friendly act did
not save his property from confisca-
ton, along with that of all the other
TIohenzollerns. Up TO that time he
had been the wealtniest o. German
princes; although his great estates in
foreign countries had been seques-
trated during the war he sim owned

patch for S1,700. Berlin did not con-
slider it a bargain. The transaction
and sale mentioned at the opening of
this story were the next steps. The
Bankruptcy Court may be just around
the corner.
Prince Friedrich Leopold and Kaiser
Wilhelm married sisters, but the prince
was never on coed terms with his
monarch. This was often rumored TO
have been due to complaints lodged
by the princes wife with her sister,
the Kaiserin, and once, as the culmina-
ton Of a domestic rumpus, Friedrich
Leopold was ordered, like bad boy,
to remain at Glienecke. The Kaiser,
to insure the arrest, sent company
of soldiers from Potsdam TO surround
the palace so that the noble but i'm
penitent culprit could not sneak out.
Glienecke was built by the renowned
PruSsian architect, Karl Friedrich
Schinkel, in the early part of the past
century. Schinkel also designed much
of the furniture About 70 spacious
rooms and halls are filed with rare
pieces, some of them dating back TO
the time Of the great Elector of Bran
denburg.

foreigners are all devils of the first
category. To rob them is to gain merit;
it is almost an act of piety. In addition,
the Mei-guo and Ying-guo and Fan
guo-thoSe outer barbarianS from
America England and France-are all
fabulously wealthy. Five minutes OF
good, healthy looting in their domiclles
will set up soldier not only Tor ms
life but for that of his sons and grand
sons. He can retire from the arduous
and not at all pleasing vocation OF
man-killer.
Prepared for Eventualities.
But the legations today can view the
threatened coup d'etat, the sudden in
vasion of armies, with something like
euuanimity. They are prepared for
eventualities. And they offer their
protection to all the foreigners OF
Picking living outside the legation walls.
These foreigners are booked, each
at his own legation. The moment
word comes that Chinese soldiers are
marching on the city, notices are sent
by telephone or chit to the outlying
homes, warning their occupants to be
packed and prepared. Further warning
will be sent if need arises. Thus the
foreigner Is given ample opportunity
to reach the shelter of the legation
walls and to remain inside until the
menace has disappeared.
Actually the final tocsin has not been
sounded, although on numerous oc-
casions the preliminary warning has
been sent out.
The legations themselves are kept
continually in readiness. Inside those
solid walls are stores of food, deep wells
that will supply water, field pieces with
ammunition to match. The gates are
of armor- plate steel. And lastly, there
is a Legation Guard. This body of
troops varies from season to season
according to the state of peace or war
in China; but at all times it is siza-
BILE force.
Thirty years ago, to repeat, this was
not the case. That braSsy-hot Sum-
mer of 1900 the IL legations in Peking

appetites snapped and circled rapidly

It was a tragic farce that was played
that Summer, fantastic and incredible.
It could have happened nowhere but in
China, the whimsical, the paradoxical.
1t began while the legations-and the
world they represented-still were os-
