There is a bill pending in congress that if it were enacted into law, would effect- uatally meet the situation. It is known as the Dyer anti-lynching bill, and undertakes to hold the county in which a lynching oc- curs responsible for damages to the estate of the deceased. The measure has met with determined opposition from the represen- tatives of states where lynchings are more or less of frequent occurence, but it ap- parently offers the only practicable remedy for the prevalence of the crime, The self respect of the nation and of the states ought to demand the enactment of the bill. s SAWDUST FOR CATTLE FOOD Tuesday of each Week to insure gublication im the current issue.

COUNTY AND OITY PROCEEDINGS DENMARK AND PROHIBITION Bishop Anton Bast of Denmark is a wel- come guest of Chicago-and vicinity, where he is stirring congregations with the mes- sage of the M, E. Centenary. He will re- main in this country a month or two at this critical time and then return to his area. Bishop Bast has a pathetic story to re- late regarding the financial condition of the Scandinavian countries, due to the de- preciation of the German mark. The whole industrial and financial status of the pemns_ula has been shaken. Religiously the faith of the people remains secure and revivals are common. . The case of temperance is growing. The recent prohibition election in Sweden was really a victory for the cause, for out- side of two or three large cities, the masses of the people favored prohibition. This is far better than the reverse. The bishop told of the four months of absolute prohibition in force in his country Denmark, at a certain period of the war. So beneficial were the results, even in that brief time, that just before the close of the prohibition term, a delegation of poor workmen appeared at his office and their spokesman said: “You know the king. Will you not carry this message to the king for us, that we workman do not wish to go back to the public house. We have seen the good effects of the closed saloon on ourselves and our families. Please plead our cause with the king.” *This testimony towers to the very heav- ens in force .It mounts so high that none can scale it—N. W. Advocate. —————% THE SHIP SUBSIDY Chairman Lasker of the United States Shipping board thinks he can convince Congress that it is a good thing to pass the merchant marine bill, - which is so strongly urged for passage by President Harding. Convincing congress is one thing and convincing the American people is another Members of congress should first learn .what the people want. If they can be con- vinced of the soundness and desirability of the measure, then of course it is up to congress to pass it, but if they are opposed to it then it is up to congress to reject it. It has happened often, that a congress- ional majority, although thorouhly sold refused to act in accordance with its con- victions, because it feared public senti- ment. On the merchant marine bill there has been no way to determine what public sentiment is, but if we were to guess at it, the people do not take kindly to the ship subsidy idea. What the people are interesed in most- ly at this time is a farm crop subsidy. A measure that will insure the farmer a bet- ter-price for what he grows, so that he may have a partial assurance at least of getting enough back to buy seed. -for the next crop. : There is a way to protect the farm: pro- Juets. There are men with minds to find this way and the sooner that it is done t.he quicker will be unrest and dissatisfaction throughout the country restored. SHOE ON OTHER FOOT : ‘A Mexican was taken from a Texas jail and lynched; whereupon the Mexican gov- ernment made representations to th.e state “department at Washington, In this case the shoe is on the other foot; In the.recent past Americans have got highly ex_clt.ed when their countrymen have been depriv- ed of their lives in Mexico with out process of law, and have demanded that the Mex- ican government make instant reparation and visit prompt punishment on the mur- derers. What is Texas or the United States acid have been eliminated there remains a soft bran-like food containing about 15 per cent of water and rich sugars. The laboratory experimented on three cows, who confidingly ate the modified wood that was fed to them and justified their faith by putting on fat and giving more milk. The Department of Agriculture is now experimenting with several hundred cattle in various parts of the country with a view to confirming the Madison test. Immense quantities of sawdust are wast- ed at present because there is no way of vsing it economica]ly. And if wood cattle food can be produced cheaply enough there will be a big market for it.—National Lumber Manufacturers Association. ——i WHY NEWBERRY QUIT “Public dissaproval” expresses it per- haps in as few words as is possible, H took to the life boat as the good ship G. O. P. sprung a leak in mid-sea. The party can be of little use to him now, and certainly he can be of less use to the par ty. Dr. Marion L. Burton, president of the University of Michigan and fromerly pres- ident of the University of Minnesota is being prominently mentioned as ‘his suc- cessor. Governor Groesbeck is insistant upon appointing some man who has the confi- dence of the peole and adds that he should be something besides a mere dispenser of patronage.” The governor is exercising good judge- ment. when he seeks the confidence of the people; - — ILLITERACY IN U. S. The percentage of illiteracy in the United States is greater than that of any other enlightened nation—thirty times as great as the percentage in Germany, ac- cording to the Secretary of the National Educational Association. Improvement and increase in the country schools is given as the remedy. But great as is the need for education, “To Ameri- canize the foreign born is as necessary as to do away with illiteracy.” That is the opinion of a man whose business it is to give all his time and attention to the prob- lem. Americanization is at least as import- ant as education. MR. MUSSOLINI Mr. Mussolini’s plan of government in Italy thus far seems decidedly business like. He knows what he wants and takes the shortest cut toward that goal, Italy has been in need of this type of leadership and if his government becomes , as busniess-like as he has been in present- ing his case, this country will make rapid progress toward a permanent peace and the restoration of social and industrial order of which Italy stands so urgently in need. i PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER Governor-elect Al Smith of New York is being pointed to by the Democrats all over the country as the next Democratic candidate for the Presidency. Al no doubt is some popular boy, but Al is too wise to permit himself being carried away by this super-abundance of enthus- iasm. He knows he is popular in New York but he also knows that it takes more than New York to elect a President, 3 ] BUY A BULL John P.
