How We Have Advanced. “President Wilson started for Philadelphia by motor,” beging an item in the current news of the day. Shades of the fathers! When George Washington traveled between Mount Vernon and Philadelphia, it was a journey of days, ““on foot or a-horse,” and now it is just the matter of a morning’s ride in an auto. The finest trains that run on rallroads make fre- quent trips between the cities, but even the opu- lent luxury of these triumphs of transportatfon is eschewed by the president for the more alluring pleasure and privacy of his machine. More- over, George Washington fell il of a slight cold, and died because of the crudeness of the medical sclence of his time, while Woodrow Wilson is privileged to take his morging drive to Phila- delphia to consult his oculist, These contrasts serve glightly to mark our progress In ways of living, but what would Andrew Jackson, riding into Washington from the Hermitage, or ““Tom" Jefferson, traveling from Monticello to call on Washington at Mount Vernon, have to say about it? Race Prejudice and Religious Intolerance. A friend sends us this cutting from “‘The True Voice,” which is circulated as a semi- official organ of the local Catholic dlocese, with the question, “What do you think of that?" The lynching of Leo Frank, the convicted Georgla murderer, has been denounced by the press in all the northern states. It was a crime; but it was no worse than hundreds of other such crimes that have been committed even In northern states. We never be- Nevea that the nation-wide agltation in favor of Frank was wise. The plea that he had not « fair trial was an unproved assumption. The forces behind the agita- tion only intensified the feeling against him, It was not @ mob that lynched ¥rank. That was the work of a determined, cool-headed set of men who were convinced of his guilt. They will not be punished. They knew that when they planned their ghastly deed. In answer to the question, The Bee without hesitation says it thinks “The True Voice," iw this outburst, is not the true voice of our friends and neighbors who profess the Catholic faith, who, we know, neither sympathize with, nor condone, the brutal mob murder of Leo Frank, To tell us that to suggest that Frank had not a fair trial s “an unproved assumption’ is an in- sult to popular intelligence. When the judge who presided over the court had expressed doubt as to Frank's guilt, and wrote a letter to that offect, when two of the most respected justices of the United States supreme court are on record favoring a new trial that would be fair to him, when the governor of Georgla has been run out of the state for exercising a small particle ot the divine quality of mercy, when a fellow con- vict was incited by the surcharged atmosphere to attempt butcher-knife assassination, and finally vhen this man's life is snuffed out by lawless lynchers without a hand being raised by the constituted authorities to save him—for any one to say in the face of these undisputed facts that “the plea that he had not had a fair trial was an unproved assumption” indlcates inoculation with a blinding prejudice of the same character us that responsible for Georgia's shame, But what passes our understanding is that any volce breathing the spirit of the Catholic chureh should fall to note the connection be- tween race prejudice and religious persecution, two names for the same thing. Today the un- reasoning mob assaults a negro—tomorrow a Jew—the next day a Catholic—as it happens to be infuriated by a passion against the color or the race or the religion of the victim. We con- fess to surprise and pain that the frenzy that de- stroyed Frank should evoke palliation from such A source. By-Product of the War. Whatever else the war in Europe may be do- fug, it is affording the doctors plenty of oppor- tunity for exploring the human body under ail sorts of strange and abnormal conditions.

The last timo Bryan spoke at Independence a much greater crowd gathered to hear him, committees were there to greet him, all the leading democratic politicrans were out to shake hands. He was lionised There was none of that last night. Bryan came | Into the dressing tent behind the stage while the Kiltles' band was playing a ploce. There were only two persons there waiting for him. One was a news- paper reporter. The other was a daughter of a N braska congressman, who Is in a hospital here. Only those two. Not one politiclan there to meet lim. Not a city por a county officlal, nor a statc nor government official, nor a candldate for office No one to welcome him There was something pathetic in the sight of Wil llam Jennings Bryan standing there alone In (ho soml-darkness of the dressing tent, the hot air heav | with the scent of tramped dog fennel, on one side a | bandsman iIn his underclothing changing from his | kiitlea. Bryan waiteq there for his cue to go on ! The audience had listened for an hour to indif ferent music by a band that played last winter in restaurant in this city. There was a short intermis #lon and Bryan was introduced by Rev. A. G. Pear- #on, pastor of the ¥irst Presbyterian church of Inde pendence, who spoke highly of Mr. Bryan as a Chris- tian gentleman. That pleased ' Bryan. His face glowed with pleasure and he shook Mr. Pearson's hand and thanked him, and then he began his speech He wore the same sort of a wrinkled biack alpacn coat that he has worn on all his speaking tours since he began in 1598 as the free silver candidate for the | presidency. But the long, black, waving hair thal | eovered his head in abundance then fs almost gone— Just a fringe of it behind his ears—the whole dome of his head bald. The ever present smile, the apringy step, were gone, too. He was no longer as corpulont | 8 he used to be. There was the beginning of a hump Appearing between his shoulders. Bryan was showing his age Mr. Bryan's volce was hoarse, and he saved it ail he could. He gave one the impression of an exceedingly tired man who was working when he ought to have been asleep and resting: but who was bouna to go through with it. He held a palm leaf fan and occasionally he waved it in front of his face with one quick gesture As he spoke under a row of hot electric bulbs per- spiration gathered in beads on his bald head, face and neck, and trickled down In tiny streams that glistened in the electric light. In the middle of his lecture he stopped, leaned over and spoke In an un- dertone to & man in the front seat. The man went out and returned with a bowl of cracked lce, which he placed on the stand Bryan thrust his right hand eagerly Into it, as an over heated horse plunges its nostrils beneath the cooling water in a tank. He clasped a chunk of tho ice and held it until his hand was cold; then he put the chilled palm of his hand to his forehead and slid it up and back over the bald place. This he did over and over again throughout the balance of his speech 1t he took his hand from the cracked ice to make a gesture with it, he quickly returned it again to the bowl. Then he kept on rubbing and rubbing his head with his cold palm. At first Bryan haa lttle applause. The first greet- ing of the audience he walked out was decidedly cool. The majority there were holders of season tick- ets in the chautauqua and there were more women than men in the audience. It might have been that Bryan was no more to them than any other attrac- tion of the week. At any rate he did not get as much applause as was glven the band that preceded him, and not nearly as much as was given a member of the band who gave imitations of Harry Lauder ani sang “Tipperary.” There was scarcely a ripple of applause until Bryan was almost half through his gpeech. Then'he mentioned the name of President Whson and the audience broke 100sé and showed Mr. Bryan in most emphatf®e manner what its opinfon was of the pre dent, After that it sort of warmed up to Bryan, probably on account of his apparent sincerity, and his worn look, and the effort he was making. “The War and Tts Lessons to Us” was the subject of his speech. He divided it into'three parts: The war as it is and s injury to us; its cause and the way out, ard the road to permanent peace. He pic- tured the horrors of the war and the Industrial and financial losses from it; said it was the result of the doctrine of “might makes right” and of preparedness: sald the nation that was best prepared for war was the first one into it andq asserted: “If our coun- try was as ready as the jingoes would lke to have it, we would have been into the war long before thia.' He said he Dbelleved In letting the people vote on whether they wanted war or mot, and those who voted for it ought to go first, with all the jinko editors on the firing line. Te closed by declaring that the treatles he and Prosident Wilson had negotiated would make permanent peace for this country when all of them had been signed up. Twice Told Tales Drawbacks in'Drawing. “This check of yours' sald the large-hearted cashler to Brushly, the impressionist painter, “is drawn exceedingly well, and in compomtion seems tc be pretty nearly perfect; but it lacks background, Mr, Brushly. But for that it would be a work of art, Your foreground is charming, but just a trifle too— well, shall we say, too fanciful?” “I don't know what you are driving at,” growled Prushly. .1 suppose you know what you mean, how- er. What kind of a background would you sug- gest?” “Cash!* sald the cashier. A work of art liké this, calling for the payment of 30, is nut wholly con- vineing with a sketchy little overdraft of $2.89 on de- posit to provide the necessary contrasts in light and shade and to give the thing what we might call balance.” Whereupon Brushly, like the self-respecting man he was, snapped his fingers under the impudent fel- low's nose and transferred his overdraft to the trust company across the street.—Judge In the Minority. Homer Roadheaver, the right hand of Billy Sun- day, said one day in Paterson: “1 am a bellever in radical pulpit methods, and yet sometimes the radical is holst, as the saying is, by his own petard. “I used to know a preacher who was troubled by & sleeping chap.

He looked round the church in & dased way. Then he gave a quiet amile and said *“Well, parson, I dunno what the votin's about, and that its action becomes accelerated some- times to a point that is really dangerous.

OMAHA, Aug. 21.—To the Editor of The Bee: In The Bee's Letter Box this | morning A Reader” criticises the street rallway company for not adopting the | near-side stop outside of the eity lmits. | As the street rallway company desires to be fully understood in this matter, T offer the following explanation: The street car company has at all times stated its bellef to be that the far-side stop better serves its patrons than the near-side stop. It would, therefore, be inconsistent of us to adopt the near-side | #top where we are not required to do se, but a welghtier reason for not stopping at the near side outside of the city limits is that a large portion of our tracks out: | #lde of the city limits are on unpaved streets or dirt roads, where there is de- cided objection to stopping at the near side in bad weather. That our decision the city limits is sound is shown by the fact that residents along unpaved streets inside of the city limits promptly pro- tested against the near-side stop on their streets, as it required them to wade through mud when they wished to board a car, and, in response to these protests. the city authorities requested us to ex cept unpaved streets from the provisions of the near-side stop ordinance. R. A. LOUSSLER, Assistant General Manager. Billy Sunday's Hell, OMAHA, Aug. 2.—To the Editor of The Bee: The weak defense attempted of Billy Sunday by Edith Darling Horlock in the Letter Box of even date would better had been omitted for all the good it has accomplished as a defense of Billy Sun- day, the faker. Billy Sunday, the indl- vidual, may have admirable personal traits; he may be a good father, and a loving husband; he may be a tender- hearted und sympathetic brother to those in distress with whom he comes in con- tact; and notwithstanding all these ad- mirable traits, he stands indicted before the bar of sclence, truth and justice as a faker, his fellow-man Into & fabled, pagan hell that never existed only in the diseased mind of a religlous fanatlc, and this In the face of scientifically and mathematic- ally proven facts that disprove all he says, makes him out a liar to a greater extent than even Dr. Cook. 1 ask: How can people who olaim to be ordinarily Intelligent accept of such nonsense in this advanced age of sclen- tific discoveries, and how can they love and respect a man who deliberately cap- itallzes a pagan superstition? Let Billy help destroy this earthly economic hell, and all other hells will automatically disappear. JBSSE T. BRILLHART, 2616 Farnam BStreet. 1t's There, Just the Same. 22.~To the Editor of The f correspondent of Lin- coln reports that Secretary of State Pool has discovered that the Jackson law known as house roll 340, session 1913, was not Incorporated in the 1913 statute. 1 beg to differ and would refer to pages 173 and 173 revised statutes of 1913, GHORGE ANTHES, | What is & Prisont COUNCIL BLUFFS, Ia., Aug. 3L-To the Editor of The Bee: It seems a fitting time, when thousands of Americans, at least in the northern states, are aroused to righteous indignation over the horrible atrocity that has just been perpetrated against Leo Frank, to ask the questions, “What is a prison,” and “When s a prison not a prison?" We are all. famillar with the unsuc- cessful attempt made upon this man's life & short time ago, when he was cruelly slashed by a fellow convict. And this would-be slayer of Frank is one, who could have had no personal interest in the death of his victim, therefore, the fact follows, that he must have been a hired assassin. In the face of this cowardly attempt upon his life, did not Frank apply the Golden Rule and beg the state authorities to have mercy on the assallant? It seems also in order at this time to quote ‘a féw lines from recent daily papers: Of all the armed guards on the prison farm, not one ralsed a hand to protect him. The same five masked prised Superintendent Burke, and two guards who are said to have been asicep on the dormitory fromt porch. Would it not appear that these guards are pald to protect the lives of the prison- ers as well as their own lives? And is Georgla paving its guards to. sleep on the dormitory front porches of prisons? It seems that any fair-minded person who desired justice, as all prison a thorities, judges, and others in the em- ploy of the government should, under- standing fully the clrcumstances sur- rounding the Frank case, should have realised the necessity of taking precau- tionary measurcs for his safety. At the present time the public press is quoting ex-Govermor Slayton in con- neotion with the affalr, as follows: Kvery power of the state will be brought to bear to punish the malefactors who have so d ed the common- wealth. Men who would do this sort of thing are the same sort that would kill women and children and murder men from behind a fence. The words I speak here 1 will repeat at home. Ex-Governor Slayton should go down in history as being one of the bravest of the brave, for it is a great risk he is taking. The responaibllity of Frank's death liss at the door of the state of Georgla and it should be made to account. “A BELIEVER IN FRANK'S INNO- CENCE" Equity in Everyday Life. OMAHA, Aug. 2.~To the Editor of The Bee: A recent lssue of the American Political Science Review contains an estimate of the book, Bquitania, published by Dr. W. O. Henry of Omal The editor's comment 18 quite favorable. The work s in many respects —remarkable.

It is something of a treaties on “how to do right” in all clrcumstances, and par- ticularly how to shape one's conduct so as to do right by onea self, also by his neighbor. Dr. Henry has drawn om his imagination for the creation of the state of soclety of people located in the “Land of Bquity.” Dr. Henry lays & great deal of stress on the importance of teaching people on lines of accountability and in- dtvidual bllity.
