Bookwalter, millionaire manufac turer and philanthropist, is dead in Italy, a bit of news that will reeall to many one of the niost ambitious experiments ever undertaken in ! Nebraska. Tt was the plan of this friend of his | rece, who held a princely domain in this state, t tv show how the rural life of a quarter of a cem- | tury ago could be made as attractive and enjoy- | able as life in a city. So he planned what was | then styled ““the Bookwalter farm village." It was in a broad sense modeled on the communi- | ties that grew up around the manor house In foudal times. In its details it was modern. The farmers were grouped in a convenient location, | from whence easy access might be had to the fields they tilled, and under such circumstances that active and effective co-operation in labor was always avallable. This community had its school, its church, its assembly hall and other features of modern communal or village life, but with the economical aspects under co-operative management and control. It was to establish pursuits, and was widely discusged at the time in connection with a number of experiments that | had been tried In the west It would not be fair to say that the Book- | walter plan was altogether a failure, for it had In it germs that have bloomed in other ways of usefulness. But it did not succeed for the sim- ple reason that Its promoter, like his predeces- wors, had not given sufficient weight to the fae- tor of individual initiative, which finally deter- mined the solution of his problem. And nowhere in all the world does that factor control more definitely than in Nebrask Training School for Policemen. Des Moines' chief of police proposes that a training school for policemen be established, with a view to educating aspirants for the ser- vice In the routine of their duties. He believes it necessary and desirable that the men be given a working insight into what is to be required of them, before they are fully entrusted with the authority and responsibility that devolve upon a policaman. This idea is worthy of consideration. Our police are uniformly courageous, vigilant and faithful. Little complaint can be lodged on that score. Smaller, but vital qualifications are frequently overlooked, and from lack of these essentials, misunderstanding and friction between the police and people sometimes arises. In connection with his idea, the Des Moines chief suggests that a probationary period of at least two years be served, before the man goes on the rermanent list under civil service protection. To make the plan thoroughly satisfactory and workable, the training period should come be- fore actual service, with appointment on the force conditioned on efficlency promised in training. If such a plan can develop policemen of higher service in thelr special field, it will be worth the effort expended. — Is This Another Sting of Ingratitude? Discussing the issues of the next election as bound to turn upon questions of foreign policy, ond the record which the administration is mak- ing in its international dealings, the current ls- sue of the World's Work, of which Ambassador Page was former editor, and which is still edited by his son, has this to say: ‘These things lead to confidence in the presi- dent's abilities to manage our foreign affairs, par- ticularly since Mr. Lansing, In whom the public be- lieves, has taken Mr. Bryan's place The Inevitable inference of all this is that the public does not believe Mr. Bryan, and that his occupancy of a place in the cabinet discred- ited the administration. Now, it 1s well known that while Ambassador Page was not particu- larly Mr, Bryan's choice for the court of St. James, he surely could pot have been named as the principal representative abroad of the De- partment of State without the acquiescence of the head of that department, who at the time happened to be Mr, Bryan. We take it the ambas- sador will have to proclaim a disavowal or soon | hear something stronger from the Commoner than the Lusitania note Wall Street Lively Again. Caught in the updraft occasioned by the war biast, fed by new funds, the stock issues dealt in on Wall street are whirling upwards like so many leaves in an autumn breeze. Prices are golng forward by leaps, and the followers of the ticker are almost as frenzied as the leaders of the battle charge. All of which should serve to warn the sober citizen that now is a good time to sit tight and carefully scan any proposed In- vestment. The speculative element is in con- trol once more, and will hold the lead in the “street” until the flurry is over, No legitimate enterprise is to be seriously affected, save those which enjoy the passing prosperity engendered by activity incident to the war.. American en- terprises, industrial and otherwise, will continue to be affected in many ways, directly and indi- rectly, by the war and its consequences, but the profit-taking in Wall street is not an especially healthy sign of material growth, Our Surplus of “Distinction.” “Of all living Americans, Enghshmen, Ger- mans and Frenchmen,” declares Dr. Wooda Hutchinson, “but one in five thousand achieves sufficlent distinction to merit his name on the pages of Who's Who or similar rosters of emi- rence. This would be decidedly discouraging to most Of us were it not for the fact that reference to (he last edition of that veracious volume known as “Who's Who" discloses seventy-one names listed from Omaha, giving us one to 2,500, and thus ranking us twice as high as Dr. Hutehin- son’s scal Of course, the good doctor may try to get out of it by retorting that half of these do not “merit the appearance,” or he may make us the excep- tion that proves the rule. But if one in 5,000 1 the true ratio of “distinction” by the “Who's Who' test, then Omaba with two in 5,000 must bave a surplus.

Kearney Hub: We read of a clergyman not a thousand miles from this center of the United States who has announced that he will not marry any couple until they have submitted to him certificates from ro putable physicians as to their mental and physical fitness for marriage. It 1s a good thing to have scruples, conscientious and otherwise, against marry- ing the unfit, but who is this man that he sets hime self upon a pedestal above the law and on a pinnacte transcending the dictates of common sense? As be- tween this clerical egotist and the noted “marrying parson’ of the Nebraska metropolis tnere is no ques- tion as to which stands today the nearer heaven. Beaver City Times-Tribune: There would seem to be no particular call for an electrical parade at the Ak-far-Ben in Omaha this year, with “Billy” Sunday in town. Side Swipes at Sunday e S — Boatrice Express: “Billy” Sunday is to have a rival in the evangelistic fleld. Al Jennings, former train robber, and author of “‘Beating Back,” who re- cently falled in an attempt to become governor of Oklahoma, has now undertaken the task of saving the sinners in New York. Following his campalgn there, he will hold meetings in the south. If he can win out in the empire state, he might make good in Georgla, where a militant evangelist is badly needed. Howell's Journal: If “'Billy'! S8unday should induce Mayor Jim to travel the sawdust trall, he will cer- tainly put one over the brewery bunch. In the lan- guage of the street we say, “Go to it, “Billy!" Your Republican: In h ged “sermons’” “Billy * Sunday just jabs people where they are sorest until they holler enough. And they stand for It because he fs so impartial. The roughnecks take it because he is just as bolstrous and uncivil with churchmem- bera and even ministers as he Is with them, and the churchmembers tolerate him because he gives tha worldlings what is coming to them, and over. David City Ban: i e Omaha Bee says that the language used by “Billy” Sunday in his talk to men last Sunday would cause the arrest of any other man using it either on the street or in public any place. Stlll the people call that kind of filth religion. Hastings Tribune: That those Omaha newspaper men are hardened old sinners is evidenced by the fact that even Reverend Willlam Sunday cannot get them to hit the sawdust trail. Tekamah Journal: To the intelligent reader the many communications in the Omaha papers relative to “Billy"” and what he says and does are really Amusing. When it is known that criticism that Is leveled at him by the class of citizens that critise him adversely only whets the appetite of the public fo get the opportunity to hear him, it seems strange that one would indulge in such ietter writing. 1t is folly to try to prevent ‘a good work from golng un The hordes of evil should have learned that lesson long ere this. They never profit, however, by exper- lence. In #o many instances has it proven true that “those who came to scoff remained to pray that work against Sunday only gives him and his workers additional fuel. Sunday is doing a great work and small fry need not feel that they can do him any damage.

The subject waa history. “‘Who,” asked the inspector, “‘was the mother of the great Scottish hero and king, Robert Bruce?" He pointed to the boy in front of him, then round the class. There was no answer. Then at last the heart of the teacher leaped with joy. The boy who was standing at the very foot Indicated that he knew. “Well, my boy," continued the Inspector, “who was she?” “Mrs. Bruce,” said the lad.—Qleveland Plain Deale His Good ldea.

True preacher graft has received a lusty boost, especially in dollars and cents, but mo- rality, ethical surroundings, humanity and true realization is conspicuously ab- sent in the drouth—as it is called—of one of the hullabaloo meetings. Human beings may strike the sawdust trail, resolve to abandon a bad habit or practice, determine to lead better lives | morally, and can go forth and carry out that good resolution of their own efforts and determination, but when they reach out for the unreal, tell about sins being | washed away, being born again and such sayings, they simply pay for what they don't get—hence the results of powerful revival meetings. J. H. DUNDAE, have been asked hun- like the } | f Requirements of Repentance GLENWOOD, Ia., Sept. #.—~To the Edi- tof of The Bee: The doctrine of repent- ance as Mr. Sunday declares it I find is the subject of severe criticlsm by a goodly number of people. The objection most often being made that according to his statement, wicked, viclous persons may thereby easily and readily attaln to a more pleasing and acceptable condition with God than is sustained by those whose lives, from the ordinary standards of conduct and action, have no apparent need of repentance. ‘The difficulty ex- ists on account of the cheap and mean- | Ingless estimate which has come to be accepted by many as constituting repent- ance. If that could be attained by the { mere act of signing a card or hitting | the sawdust trial, the objection would be well founded, but genuine repentance is not built alone out of such materials. When John the Baptist came preach- ing the baptism of repentance for remis- sion of sins the people were deeply stirred by his message. When they came to him by reason thereof he told them first to “bring forth fruits worthy of repent- ance.” They asked, “What shall we do then?" whereupon John replied: “He that hath two coats, let him im- part to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, le him do likewise.” Note the requirements, the first day's work, the preliminary effort, the founda- tion, for those who seek the kingdom of heaven, and then compare the same with the present day standards. Genuine repentance should it actually come to Omaha, or to any other place, will change the title to every dollar of | property therein, and among many things | revolutionary would disband each and all of the labor unlons In the city. John, | having as a part of the declaration to which reference has already been made, told the people to be content with their wages. A mighty fact therefore is re- pentance, beginning along the lines indi- cated, and gathering force and power from resultant contact with Jesus Christ unti! His word and will in its fullncss shall be obeyed, the differences between rich and poor obliterated, and the healing of the nations will once more be mani- fested. INTERESTED READER.

BYRON, Neb, Sept. 21.—To The Kdi- tor of The Bee: Your paper in one place tells the losses of the Germpans around Vilna were 250,000; the same time every- body knows the Germans have a net around a Ruesian army of 300,000, Now you believe yourself that 300,000 sur-. rounded Russians are able to destroy a German army of 260,007 If you used a littie common sense you wouldn’'t print such nonsense; of course, nobody will and can believe it, the le is too big. 1 don’t care if you publish thie letter or not, but other papers will do it C.

OMAHA, Sept. 2.—~To the Editor of The Bee: When The Bee came last evening, as usual, T looked bver the front page, then editorials and then the letter box. 1 Jon't read all the letters in The Bee, | but last evening I noticed a long letter | with John M. Thurston's name at the | end, so read it. Now that Mr. Thurston Is no more a citisen of Washington or | New York and has ‘‘Come home to roost.” | I'm glad of It, for since Omaha has grown big, we have need of big men, even though 1t takes a knocking letter to an- nounce the fact that he is doing biz. at the old stand—or ready for it. 1 came the first time to Omaha in 1883, * Soon after that a citizen of Omaha was tried on thé charge of shooting his wife in their home (and by the way, I occupy that house now, sleep In that same room, and can look at the hole in the door made by the bullet he fired.) In that trial Mr. Thurston was leading counsel on | one side (I don't remember which), and Mr. Cowin on the opposite side. The | case created great interest and the court | was crowded every day. On the closing day when Mr. Thurston made his great | effort, the room was packed and people were in & high state of excitement, The setting was just right for the big event | which had to do With the life or death | of one man. | was there. Mr. Thurston was equal to the occasion. His effort tinally landed him in Washington. Now he comes back and writes of Mr. Sun- day as a “contortionist Why, “Billy" is not one, two, three, compared to what Thurston was in those days For hours that day he raved and stormed and | fumed, and by the power of speech and contortions labored to bring the court and Jury to his side, whether it was the right or wrong side, was all the same to him. Why, sir, J. M. has “Billy” beat ten blocks s an actor contertionist, judged only by the stunts he pulled off that day; for If he d'd not fall on his belly he did fall on some part of his anatomy as he pulled off a fainting stunt, which was a peach. And all this not for & free-will offering from the people such as Mr Sunday gets, but for a fat fee -and fame to come. Mr. Thurston refers to his respectable family tree.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb, Sept. #4.—~To the Editor of The Bee: Three different correspondents of The Bee have charac- terized me through The Bee for my com- ments on Billy Sunday religion and otherwise, for whieh I am thankful en- | tirely and would respond. | Sure, Sunday has a religious boom on. a glory-to-God-for-Christ's-sake-hallelu. | Jah” movement How many of the busi ness men in Omaha who are putting up the money to promote Sunday’'s propa ganda do business and made thelr mo by lelujah?’ The billion men that rashed from Europe to redeem Christ from the Saracens rushed by “hallelu- Jah The 2,000,000000 men that have cut each other's throats in Burope in the last LU0 years, cut them by ‘hallelujah.” | The people in Burope are now fighting by hallelujah Religious hysteria has| Leen in all ages of the world the tyrant's | mystic wand of power, the hypoeritic | #pell that has ever held the masses of | the people in slavery | Sunday is a religlous monomaniac when he assumes authority to send to hell | those who do not mccept his declarations. | It “Biily” Sunday's propaganda were | only the froth and imbecility that it car- ries on its surface, it would not be worth noticing. But in these strenuous times of social, economic and political up- | heaval it means much to the American people. In 1910 the German emperor wrote to the Benedictine priest of the Vatican “The twentieth century has developed ideas that can only be suppressed by re- ligion; in this conflict the altar and the throne must stand together.” What are these ideas? They are the republicanism of Lincoin and the democracy of Jeffer- son. What is the mode of procedure? Suppression of free thought? “Billy" Sunday represents the executioner, and For 6,000 years this world has been held in misfortune by ignorance and ‘‘halle- lujah.”” The altar and the throne, im- perial wealth and religion may have tem- | porary sway in Omaha, but the American people are onto the game. Sixty-five | million citizens out of 93,000,000 are re- ported by the United States census to | be nonreligious. The public press of this | country will do well to take cognizance | of the situation. The rising tide of in- dividualism, “personal liberty,” intelli- gence, representative democratic govern- | ment cannot be suppressed by any circus, | ;. D religious or otherwise. LUCIEN STEBBINS.
