E Wakeley, general passenger agent of the ,Burlington, who has just returned from a trip through the western country, says that everyone in the east seems to be just riding around seeing everything there is to be seen between Pueblo, Colo., and Glacier park, on the Canadian bound- ary. Low fares for tourists have | brought a big volume of business to | the western roads and the traffic is heavy on all the western lines and in | every direction on the lines.

Just before a senatorial election Senator Hitchcock is having a hard time to determine whether to boost for a federal land bank in Omahz or for Lincoln, Lincoln presented its claims for a bank before Omaha did. The senator admitted this in a speech before the Commercial club of maha. He admitted that he hesita- ted a while, or rather “acted deliber- " with regard to the claims of In. “Still T did not hear from Omaha,” he said. “*And in my own mind, I con- fess, 1 was not convinced whether such a land bank would be of any g_reat advantage to a city or not. inally 1 drew. up a letter to Secre- McAdoo in which I set forth the claims of Lincoln. Before I signed the letter, however, 1 heard irom Omaha and was asked to present the claims of Omaha.” “When the board is finally ap- pointed,” continued the senator, “they will hold hearings throughout the country. I shall do all I can to have one of these hearings held in Omaha. I have great confidence then i:. the ability of the Omaha business men to present the claims of Omaha suf- ficiently strong.” For Cheap Money. | The senator spoke ot tuis land bank law as “experimental legislation,” and then hastened to state that he did not mean that in a disparaging sense, “for I am enthusiastic for it,” he added. But he said this was undertaken on so much larger scale than it had ever been undertaken in any other country in the world. “The problem was,” he said, "to bring the cheap money into the local- ity where there is a large demand for cnYital. In a strict sense these banks will not do a banking business. The will not receive deposits. They will be land loan companies on a large scale.” tar, Requirements. He went over some of the details of the requirements: That the bank | must have a capital of at least $750,- | 000 to begin with; that the govern- ment will own much of the stock; that farmers in order to become eligible to borrow this money must organize themselves into local associations and buy stock in the bank to the extent of at least 5 per cent of the amount they hope to borrow; that the bank wil{loan to the extent of 50 per cent | of the value of a farm; that it is in- tended that as the farmers’ associa- tions take out stock in the bank the stock owned by the federal govern- ment may be gradually retired until the bank is entirely in the hands of the farmers, and that as the bank oes on with its business it may issue gonds and sell them to eastern capi- talists at perhaps 4 per cent, bearing no tax, and that in this way it is ex- pected to draw great quantities of eastern money to these banks at 4 er cent, while the bank can readily oan it out at 5 per cent and sustain itself on the 1 per cent margin. Frank H. Meyers, former president of the Omaha Real Estate exchange, presided at the meeting. He drew attention to the fact that farm loans in Omaha annually amount to $15,- 000,000, and for the whole state of Ne- braska about $30,000,000. He mapped out what he considered an ideal land bank district—Iowa, Nebraska, Kan- sas and Missouri—with Omaha the location of thg bank. Rotarians Plan For Night at the Den The Omaha Rotary club has is- sued an invitaion to all Rotarians in this jurisdiction to join with the locals in celebrating Rotary night at the Ak-Sar-Ben Den August 14, The Rotarians are confident that the night set aside for their ordeal in King Ak's sanctum of mystery will be one of the “largest” of the year.

Resourceful Womezaffle ti;e Demon Heat With Garden Hose A man driving an automobile west on Farnam street almost lost con- trol of the machine at Thirty-eighth street Wednesday afternoon. ¢ (But this is no story of an acci- dent. Just wait,) “Gosh, 1 thought 1 things,” he said. _ Passengers on street cars passing the same corner “rubbered.” Masculine pedestrians looked and then hurried on, or walked slowly. What was the cause of all this ex- citement? Nothing but two ladies, dressed in bathing suits, lying on a lawn at their ease under the cooling shower of a lawn sprinkler. One of the “lawn bathers” was a middle-aged matron, the other a girl of eighteen summers. “By George, I don't blame ’‘em.” “Mighty sensible thing to do,” and like exclamations of the spectators told that the rather original scheme of the two on the lawn met with ap- proval, was seeing Necessity is the well known moth- er of invention.” And in this instance invention “had produced a splendid device for ' baffling that villain, Hundred In the Shade. There are other schemes in vogue among our inventive citizenry It is a common sight in the evening to see a group of kids on a lawn, all dressed in their bathing suits and dis- porting themselves with shouts of lee in the stream of water from the ose, father acting as chief hose boss. And it is but natural that often the grown-ups can't resist the sight 28, 19186. The Bee's Fund for Free Mibk and Ice “I certainly want to be in on this, said one man. “I consider it more of a privilege than a duty to subscribe to help those children. Poor kids! It isn't their fault that they lack the things needed to hring their little lives through the summer.” That’s just the way scores of gocd people feel. Givers and receivers alike are blessed through this kind of a trans- action. Every ca=nt buys pure milk and cool- ing ice for the babies and small chil- dren of deserving poor. The need is great during this hot weather. Previow acknowledged . .8382 20 An Omaoa Friend 100 Mrs. Willlam Johnwon, 3103 Mnson sressaiaenes 100 A Friend. . 10 No Nume. Total ...

Lovett saw the man on the street and leaped for him. The culprit struck Lovett between the eyes, shook him off and started flight. Lovett pursued and fired six shots from his revolver, but the watchman’s aim was bad and the thief escaped.

The town of Miami was not be- lieved to be endangered according to these advices. lowa Man |Issues Bad Checks, But His Wife Makes 'Em Good J. M. Givens, prominent citizen, and cafe proprietor of Lake View, Ia. came to Omaha and looked long and earnestly upon the grape, with the re- sult that he papered the wholesale and retail district with beautifully penned checks, the penmanship being the most valuable portion of the cer- tificates. Officers collected several handfuls of the same, totalling $750, Confederate currency. Givens wirea his wife, who wired back that she would obtain a mortgage on the busi- ness and make good the amount. Need Lar—ger WaterP_ipe Because of the Hot Weather The tearing up of Farnam street between Fifteenth and Sixteenth s a direct result of the hot weather, The Hotel Henshaw found that guests of the house wereeusing so much more water during the hot spell that the old intake pipe was not big enough to carry the needed water | at times, and the water failed to reach the upper story when baths and showers were being drawn in the rooms below. A larger intake pipe has been put in place and all is well. Laborer Is Buried When of so much glec and they, too, soon wppear in old clothes or bathing suit and join in the cooling sport.

It is not expected that the black- | list controversy will assume the form of a protest before the return of Walter Hines Page, the American ambassador, who is going to the United States on a vacation. While the theory prevails in gov- ernment circles that the act is purely a piece of domestic legislation a num- ber of neutral diplomats hold that the act directly affects the comity of nations. . These diplomats cite two treaties in support of their argument, the first between the United States and the Hanseatic republic providing for the reciprocal trade returns between the two countries under guarantees that no discriminations shall be permitted, and the second, the treaty between the United States and Great Britain of 1885, providing trade facilities for inhabitants and traders of both coun- tries under guarantees that no dis- crimination shall be allowed.

Almost every day the American diplomatic representatives here have been carrying complaints with regard to the operatior of the mail censor- ship to the foreign office.
