12 . ATTITUDE TOWARD U.5.H0RE FRIENDLY | Dolomel Coffee Writes to Gould ! Diets, Telling Something of Con- ditions in Australia. NOT HOSTILE TO AMERICANS : Anti-American feeling, which has been rife in Australia, is bulnnlng: to abate, people there reaiizing that| with the combined abuse of the Ger- | man and Australlan newspapers the United States has had a hard row to| boe. This in substance is the word | received Tuesday by Gould Diets ks from Colonel Frank Coffee, an £ American capitalist who has lived in Sidney, Australia, for the last thirty i yoars. Colonel Coffes, & son, Frank, formerly & reporter fn Vancouver and Melbourne, | § | enlisted as a private four months ago, but has been promoted until now he is a leutenant. Various causes are assigned for the hostile feeling toward America. The public has been very bitter, the writer says, but attributes the hitterness of Aus- tralian newspapers that have been giving the impression that America has been Influenced axainst the allles. The writer thinks that the papers are to blame, not because of what they say, but by reason of what they omit. He thinks that if excerpts from the American press wers | priated, it would do much to allay bitter- Ns— — Censorship ta Striet. Censorship of the press and mail con- tinves very strict. In one instance an passenger on the Venturs, San Francisco to Sidney, wrote a ter to some American friends in which sald: “I hear the censorship is strong in | Australia, so T will write you at sea.' He wrote the letter on board and - handed it to the purser at sea to be posted. When the censors boarded the | vessel at Bidney they turned everything “ inside out, even opening magasines. The had the American's letter to be in Frisco. When the censors they wanted to arrest the pur- | only released him upon guaran- that ke would return to the port of l’izg L e However, within the last few weeks the Australian papers have been quoting in- | terviews from Americans and from Aua- who have been visiting In merica. These interviews for the most been such as to cause a re favor of the American sttl- TR Lusitania and on other by the Australian | it i |days ago. Julia Some Speed Craft When Coming Down the Missouri Pecauss the “Julla” proved to be a faster boat coming down stream in the Missouri river than Omaha shippers had expected it to be, many of them who had Intended to ship goods tu Decatur were not ready for It whan it arrived a few Those who had Intended to ship goods up rtream observed the timo taken on the up-stream course and cal- culated the round-trip on that basis, so much goods orlginally intended for the Julla was shipped by rail to the nearest | tion to Decatur to be taken overiand en the little *Julia” dropped quietly | down stream from Decatur to Omaha in soven hovrs, landing here ready to take on freight before the frelght intended for it had been more than barely ioaded on tho cars. Here the “Julia” was ready to load and the freight cars had run away with its cargo, hecause shippers did not know it was s0 swift on the down-stream trip. Thig fact delayed the boat a little in| getting started on its second up-stream | course. However, sufficlent cargo was again mustered for it and it met out for Decatur yesterday afternoon. The shippers are not yet adjusted to the boat conditions, but when they learn the schedule it is expected there will be abundant cargo all the time for the little craft. Toll Bridge Owner to Fight Proposed New Elkhorn Bridge The Ashland Bridge company has mar- shaled its forces for a fight against a proposed Inter-county bridge between Saanders and Douglas counties over the | Eikhorn river, which is proposed to make a direct road between Yutan and Omaha. Douglas and Saunders county commis- | sloners are in favor of the bridge and have agreed that the counties shall Jointly finance the bullding of such a bridge. There is one more requirement, how- ever. Such a project must have the senc- tion of a special board appols engineer, the commissioner of public bufldings and other state officials. A meeting of this board is to be held soon, and it is expected that at that time the company controlling the private toll bridge at Ashiand will make a fight to prevent the proposed Yutan bridge from getting the official sanction.

Richards {s charged with breaking and entering, having been bound over at Val- ley. After reading the letter which s sald to be one of the most pathetic pleas ever recelved by local officlals from a woman n behalf of a man charged with erime, County Attorney Magney sald he would consult concerning the oase with Justice of the Peace E. A. Erway of Valley, tefore. whom Richards had his preliminary hearing. Stll Loves Husband. Though her husband is charged with crime and though, she says, he is ad- dicted to the uso of morphine, she is not ashamed to bear his name, but signed her letter boldly “Mrs. Frank Tichards." In fact in her opinion the use of morphine palliates the alleged crime. Her love for her husband has found for him six different pleas for his freedom, as follows: Would not have done it unless under Influence of morphine. Had swallowed a tack which penetrated the lining of his stomach Has been a sufferer from asthma and heart faflure. Was In bed asleep when arrested. It given his freedom will stay away from Omaha.
