others, be oelleves tbia country was
crossly remiss in its duty in not taking part iu the war long before it did.
A nation, like an individual, should
keep its solemn agreements. This
nation in common with several others,
Germany included, signed a solemn
agreement guaranting tbe neutrality
Of Belgium. This country saw tbat
solemn agreemetit trodden under
toot by Gdrmany yet it not only uttered no protest but its citizens were
warned to be neutral "even in
thought." Wben men of vision saw
what was inevitably coming aod
urged tbat preparation be made for
the coming storm, tbe conolry was
informed by tbe President that tbese
men were "nervous and excited"
and tbe highest officer in tbe cabinet
went npon the platfotm asserting
that all this prepardness propaganda
waa instigated by 'munition makers"
and tbat, sboald tbe need arise
"a million freemen wonld spring to
arms over night." Tbe people enjoyed tbis sort of soporific and went on
making money. Now after a feverish
baste of nine months in an attempt
to prepare for war, we are learning
bow an army of a million can be
creafed over night. Officials of tbe
government are making charges and
counter charges aa to wby many of
tbe soldiers cannot drill because they
bave no shoes and why broomsticks
mast still be used for rifles by many
of tbem.
In Mr. Bradley's opinion tbia country is largely to blame for tbe present situation Id Russia, it permitted
Trotsky to leave this country, his
pockets filled with German gold and
with an abundance of lying circulars
to scatter broad cast arcon. tbe
simple Russian soldiers, warning
them tbat a distribution of land was
soon to be made and tbat tbey wonld
get none unless they immediatelv returned bome Tbey were told also
tbat nearly all of tne people of tbe
United S_!»_<_£ vsrc opposed to the
war and wonld do nothing. Wben
this country learns to deal summarily
with tbe enemies within our gates,
then we shall make  better   progress.

ANOTHER MAYOR
Compelled  To   See  The
Light.
PROHIBITION
In Omaha Proves To Be
Success.
Great
Tbe Mayor of Omaha, one-time
leader of the wets and determined opponent of Prohibition, has deserted
his former allies and now is lined up
witb the men wbo believe Prohibition
is a good thing.
Por years the Mayor opposed closing the saloon on the ground tbat
their abolition wonld mean ruin to a
city and tnat taking away a man's
rigbt to freely buy intoxicating liquor
would mean taking away his personal
liberty.
Tbe Mayor's municipal campaigns
were made chiefly npon the "personal
liberty" issue
During tbe existence of tbe 8
o'clock closing law the Mayor on various occaeions denounced tbat measure* and took no active eteps to enforce tbe law.
In tbo£e days the Mayor stood for
a "wide open" town.
He led tbe fight agalnt Prohibition
last November, lined up tbe Democratic machine against tbe drys,
formed political alliance with tbe wets
and did everything one man could do
to defeat Prohibition.
But the Mayor bas cbanged front.
Confronted by tbe facts demonatrated
by live months of Frobioition in
Omaha, be now acknowledges that
Omaha bes benefited by the abolition
of saluons.
He explained hie cbanged attitude
_n a recent -interview with William J.
Johnson, associate secretary of tbe
Presbyterian board of temperance.
So strongly did tbe Mayor present
tbe virtues of Prohibition in Omaba
that Mr. Jobnson uses bis stabements
as an argument for a dry Chicago.
He is qHi-tug Omaha's Mayor as
follows:
"I said to bim, "Major, we are
getting ready for a big tight on tbe
saloon question in Obicago and I have
come here to aee how Prohibition
bas hurt Omaha." ,
"He said, "Prohibition bae not hurt
Omaha; everything is all right."
"Wbat efieet bae it had on* crime,
on the number of arrests?
"There is not so mnch crime, not
nearly so many arrests    Tbere Is not

In tbe Flag that's overhead*,
May tbe good Ood watcb above  him
As be stands to duty stern
And at last to all who love bim
May he bave a safe return.
Little mother take tbe blessing
Of a grateful nation's bean;
May tbe news tbat is distressing
Never eaaee yonr beart to start;
May tbere be no fears to haunt you,
And no lonely hours and aad;
May your trials never daunt you
But may every day be glad.

MARKET DIRECTOR

State Market Director McBride

Mr. and Mrs. Ray Utley
and Family.
Horrible as is this great war, it
still has some compensating advantages. When groups of people are
more or less isolated from each other,
tbey tend to have exaggerated notions
of the great gulf separating them.
Tbe army is provingaveritable "melting pot" to fuse these supposed ir-
reconsilate differences and draw
men together. The Y. M. _!. A.
huts are open to the Catholic priest
nnd to the Jewish rabbi to speak to
tbeir people and tbe very kindest
leeling exists throughout. AW bear
testimony that sectarianism ie unknown. Protestants are heartily
seconding the efforts of Catholics in*
the K. C. effort to provide farther
facilities for Catholics and we bave
no doubt these facilities would be
placed at iae disposal of tbe Y. M.
C. A. should tbe need for tbeir use
at any time arise.
Below we extract from an address
of Rev. Ruseell H. Hready of Pontiac,.
pastor Of tbe M. E. cburCD there and
a man not unknown in this section:
"Often, when a plant is transplanted to other soil, it dies. When you
transplant a shrub, the more of ite
original soil you can keep around ite
roots, tbe wnore likely it wiil be to
thrive and develop.
"I therefore urge tbat as yon
transplant our beys from the peaceful
life to the military life, tbe more of
tbe soil they have been raised in that
can be carried along, the better tbey
will do when they get away. This
means tbat if you transplant just as
mucb of the home life as possible,
just as mucb of tbe church life in
which that boy was raised, the more-
be will thrive. Th« leas likely he
will be to die of homesickness. All
tbe Protestant chnrchea are centering
tbeir activity on tbe inside of the
camps in the Y. M. C. A.
"Thousand of Roman Catholic loya
are io all of these camps, they can-
I not belp but leel that tbey are more
' or less visitors in the Y. M* C. A., as
welcome as I fecow they are. Regardless of what you think of tbe
forms of worship of the Roman Catholic cburch, I want every Roman
Catholic boy to be transplanted into
tbe military life, witb all tbe soil in
which be was raised clinging to tbe
roots. Thie means thst the Roman
Catholic Cbnrcb mnet be permitted
to do something for tbem, not as n
chorcb, because the Protestant
churches are not so permitted.
Therefore the government recognizee
tbe Kuigbts of Columbus as the Roman Catholic Y. M. C. A. and \ eay
te you tonight as a Protestant minister from the Protestant pulpit, tbat
it is ae a great necessity, as tbe

"If Protestants and Roman Catholics must antagonize eacb otber, in
the name of Americanism I appeal to
