The President’s Naval Program, Président Wilson has announced his inten- | tion of submitting to congress a naval program of such ambitious proportions as will make the United States second only, and close in rank, to Fngland as a sea power. Proposed purely as a defensive measure, the plan s not only suf- ficlently comprehensive to satisfy ‘the most clamorous advocates of naval preparedness, but a complete reversal of the attitude of the admin- {stration of last spring, when the president and his advisers were against all naval expaneion. It is certain that the naval program will en- counter determined opposition in both branches Gf congress, considerable proportion of the people are still unconvinced of the necessity for so great an enlargement of our sea-fight- ing ability. A coalition between this element of the republican and democratic membership In both houses will form a group of really formid- rble strength, which will have the support of a large body of antl-militant citizens sincerely doubtful of the service of elaborate fighting strength as a means to the preservation of peace. The Bryanites in congress and out of congress will surgly be against the plan, and it 18 likely to be further complicated by the per- sistence of Secretary McAdoo in pushing for- ward the merchant marine shipping bill, which held up all legislation for so long last spring. This much is certain, the coming session of congress will be largely taken up with questions of preparedness on both land and sea. for a The Street Fair's Death Knell. While nearly everybody able to express an unbiased view is applauding The Bee for boldly voleing the demand that the street fair be cut out of future Ak-Sar-Ben programs, some mem- bers of the board of governors seem still indis- posed to harken on the ground that they ‘‘need the money.” It is suggested that perhaps the shows could be improved, or a better class of shows secured by negotiating directly instead of with a combination carnival company or by add- ing local talent, as if this would answer all ob- Jjections. This sort of talk misses the whole point, for the rising tide of indignation is not directed particularly at the “cheap-John” shows put on, but at the whole street fair business, which is @ discredit to Ak-Sar-Ben, and out of tune with a progressive metropolitan city like Omaha, It is the demoralizing atmosphere, the gross rowdy- ism, the undisguised gambling games, and the gure-thing grafters that have sounded the death knell of the street fair as a place of amusement to be tolerated by any decent community. The #ooner all concerned wake up to this fact, and ect accordingly, the better, Morehead, the Money and the Law. As a member of the Nebraska legislature John H. Morehead helped to enact the Gerdes law, which requires that all fees collected by any officer of the state of Nebraska be paid inta the state treasury, from whence they can only be taken by due process of law, As governor of the state of Nebraska John H. Morehead tells one of its officers to take auoney he collects such officer and ap- propriate it to the payment of his salary and ex~ penses, without regard to the law. Governor Morehead knows that his action 1s Governor Moréhed fias threaténed to bring action against the state treasurer, accusing him of misconduct in office that, if proven'should warrant his removal. But he has not yet gotten beyond threats. Governor Morehead evidently does not very highly regard the laws he has solemnly sworn to uphold and enforce. ‘What do the people of Nebraska think ebout it? Co-Operation in Foreign Selling. Locomotive makers are the latest group to approach the Federal Trade commission for per- mission to unite their interests and efforts in the work of securing forelgn trade. They point out, as have other groups of manufacturers, the difficulties encountered in undertaking to act as individuals, particularly the opposition that {s natural from foreign competitors who ars permitted to act jointly, The logic of the case is apparent; the objection to it lles chiefly in the fact that co-operation in the forelgn field will lead to similar action In domestic markets, and thus the carefully erected structure of anti- trust legislation will be nullitied. But it s rlain that if our manufacturers are to make headway In outside markets, they must have something like an equal start with their compe- titors. Co-operation may be the secret of the process that is to give us control, At any rate, it seems to be most ardently desired by most of the concerns that are in posttion to enter the tield of world's commerce, By-Products of “Civilization’s War.” More and more is the world outside the arona belng lmpressed with the awful terror of the awful conflict that has engulfed the nations of Burope. Just now it {8 not so much the 'waste of life and property that engages thought, stupefying and incomprehensible the totals gre. Individual life must terminate eventually, and the dead are through with the world; wealth destroyed may ultimately be replaced by other wealth, to be created by new generations, who will endure the poverty that is to be the heritage ct this debauch of destruction. But, 2,000,000 rien, already bereft of one or another of their limbs, are to be taught how to carry on the productive work of the civillzation under which they have been malmed, while others, bereft of frculties, are to be trained if possible to some sort of usefulness. Thus war casts back crip- ples and defitients on which to build the future of the nations that only a few months ago were leaders in enlightenment! — A quartet of oleomargarine mixers in Qhio, rounvicted of defrauding the government of $1,000,000 in revenue taxes, won a sentence of two years in the penitentiary and a fine of $1,000 each. The government did not recover the lost revenue, but it convinced the vietims that trifling with federal laws puts a erimp on freedom. German submarines have done little execu- tion in British waters lately, but British subsea craft are shockingly active in destroying the freedom of the Baltic Sea. It is a lonesome game that two cannot play at.

Ivery room that is occupled either | by day or night should have a constantly changing | current of air, ana unless there is a modern ventilat- Ing system some other means should be provided for admitting it. A simple and effectiva way to let in a free current of air without chilling the room or its occupants is 1o hang & board a quarter of an inch thick and twelve inches wide, by means of screw- eyes set In the upper edge, to two hooks inserted in the window casings so that the bottom of the boarl fits in, exactly flush with the window #fll. The board may be fastened on one side near the sill by a mov- able button and the whole painted to match the win- dow frame. When the window Is raised about ten inches & steady stream of pure air enters the room, and there is no deaft Never make the mistake of thinking that cold air is pure air, if you sleep in a room without heat. A tightly closed cold room will rob your blood of oxy- gen the same as a tightly closed warm ore. Often persons whose bedrooms are small do not open their windows because they de not want to sleep in an ley wind. That, of course, would not be pleasant nor Is it necessary. A blanket thrown over the backs of two chairs and put near the window will serve as a wind- break; or tack some light-welght cloth over a screen and put it in the window and you will have plenty of pure air cireulating in the room without blowing di- rectly on the bed. Although a cold room is the ideal sleeping place it 1s a waste of vitality to get into a cold bed and try to warm It with the heat from tho body, Put a hot-water bag or soapstone into the bed long enough before retiring to make mattress and clothes warm. This is especially essential for children. Second-hand air ia far worse than a second-hand toothbrush, yet many persons who would be horrified at the use of the latter are willing to inhale the air exhaled from other people's lungs. The importance of good ventilation where several people are sitting cannot be overemphasized. In pro- viding air remember that if two gas jets are burning they are consuming as much good air as four persons; and one kerosene lamp consumes the same amount. A lamp left with the flame turned down adds very much to the impurity of the alr because of imperfect combustion. If you use a gas droplight and will re- move the tubing for a test, you readily see from tha odor of gas which escapes how necessary it 18 to take it down frequantly and air it Householders seldom know that their cellars are the storehouses from whence comes 50 per cent of the alr of the first floor and 30 per cent of that on the floor above. If they did there would not be so many dank and nolsome places filled with refuse and mold, spiders, cobwebs, and mice, to say nothing of decayed vegetables and frults. Vapors from all theso combine to penetrate the whole house and add their polson to the air that is breathed by those living above them, Every cellar, even if kept free from dirt, should be ventliated as carefully in winter as In summer. A musty smell shows that mold plants are growing ani are walting to attack fruit ana vegetables, Cold will not kil these destructive’ germs. There should be plenty of air let in the cellay every clear day. Mols- ture-laden air entering it condenses on walls and pipes and soon makes it so damp that it is a menace to the house. All cellars should have dishes of un- Slaked lime in them; this takes up molsture with avid- ity. When the lime crumbles, losing entirely its crystalline character, it has become - slaked and will take up no more molsture, It should then be renewed. Numerous ill effects result from the extremely dry alr of many overheated houses. Furniture checks and cracks dna falls to pleces, planos lose their tune, house plants get brown and wither, skins become parched, throats become sore, and volces grow hoarse. The dry atmosphere acts as a stimulant to the ner- vous system. Sleep is restless and broken. The change from too dry air of the house to the moist air of outdoors causes colds An important part of winter ventllation is often overlooked, that of personal ventilation. Your clothes, your hair, your teeth, all play their part In fouling the air indoors by the odors which emanate from them when not properly cared for. Woolen clothing par- ticularly absorbs and retains emanations from tho body and when not in use should always be hung where they will get sun and alr; never in a dark, stutfy closet, Remember that your closets need the alr and ghould have the doors left open, if you du not want the air of other rooms vitiated every timo the closet doors are open.

It has sent Inquiries to 1,000 papers In the United States and then calls 391 af- firmative replies (In favof of woman suf frege) an ‘“overwhelming majority.” It skips over “the half thousand who did not reply as representing the large fac tion of the pec who view the subject with Indifference.” The same with the question asked in regard to communities, produced only 237 favorable re- 1,000, The 472 by making no replies certainly cannot be reasonably counted as favor- able to woman suffrage; in fact, it can that all those favorable to any move- ments, or issues, are ever ready to rush into print and would not have raissed this oportunity to send in an affirmative reply. It s much more reasonable to sup- pose that they were opposad, ever it only mildly so, but for some reason or other aid not care to go un record. Of the communities answering 237 were favorable, 133 unftecided and 156 negative and 474 made no answer. Adding the un- dectded 138 to the latter would show 607 undecided and 15 negative, as against only 287 favorable, In this connection it is also a auestion to what extent does editorial opinion rep- resent or reflect public opinion. The Literary Digest intends or attempts to publish & review of the press of the United States on important subjects and professes rather to be neutral, L e, to give both sides of tho qeustions. It may be noted, however, that it is hot free from bilas, becavse it plainly gives more space to whichever side it hap- pers to favor, Whether that Is by design or unconsciously may be open for dis- cussion, but the effect of it is to create a wrong impresrion, tending to boost the favored cause. AN ANTI-SUFFRAGIET. Brother Searle is Facetious, OGALLALA, Neb, Oct. 13.-To the Editor of The Bee: So much has been written in favor of the short ballot, that it reminds me of the early days on the Unlon Pacifie. It was in the early eighties when elec- tion day came only once a year. As s00n as the polls were open at Kim- ball and all hands had voted, Road- master McGregor started east with the work train and the gang. They arrived at North Platte before the polls closed and in time to vote, having voted the gang at every polling place from Kim- ball,to North Platte. But they had everything in thelr favor to make a fast run, for they were given a clear track, it was all down hill, and Charley Ell was in the cab, and they had the short ballot. EDWIN M. SEARLE. Express Zone of South Si SOUTH SIDE, OMAHA, Oct. 13.—To the Editor of The Bee: As a continuous customer of the express companles doing business in the old city of SBouth Omaha, now called the South Side by most of us, I want to urge those who are in- terested to write letters at once to the WNebraska State Rallway commission at Lincoln and urge them to request the express companies to extend their pres- ent zone of business in thiv part of Omaha, The express companies now have a dis- trist, I have been Informed, that extends north of M street to L street, from Twenty-seventh street west to Thirty- third street, and east of twenty-seventh street north to I street, east to Twentieth street, south to Q street and west to 334 street. Oneside of this very !limited dis- trict we have to do the best we can to get our express packages from the com- panies or ship by them, The express companies deliver goods much further from thelr offices in Omaha proper and there is no reason why they should not deliver much further away in this section. One express agent told me today that he hopes the state rallway commission will compel them to get and deltver articles all over the part that was South Omaha. I have written the State Rallway commission and suzgested a district as follows: From M street north to 1 street, west of Twenty-seventh street, and to A street, east of Twenty- seventh street, east to Thirteenth street, south to Madison street, and west to Thirty-ninth street. That district wolld reach the sections where the most busi- ness would come from and to the ex- press companies. 1 belleve the companies will extend the district on the request of those who are interested, without being compelled to do #0. The present district includes the packing house district and a part of the business district and a very small resi- dence part, Under the plan suggested by me many more people will be reached to thelr benefit, as well as to the benefit of the express companies. F. A. AGNEW. Expl tion of Anglo-French Loan. OMAHA, Oct. 13.~To the Fditor of The Bee: So much has been sald In regard to the Anglo-French loan that is incor- rect we would like to give a few facts in the case 1. In regard to withdrawing the money from this ¢ untry. It has heen partiou- specified that the entire sum loanod shall remain in this country to be disbureed in payment for American products: and to be deposited in the banks throughout the United States un- til needeq for these pavments.

Denomina- tion $10 and upwards. 4. These bonds have nct been offered to the public as yet, but have tecn underwritten by a syndicate of bankers and will soon be offered to yleld almost 5% per cemt interest returns, 5. The loan is not unusually large for an obligation of two nations. The city of New York easily solj last fall. in the worst of money markets, an lssue of §100 000,000, 6 This is the only external loan of Frence and England, except some short term issues of France. These notes have & fixed meturity which are unlike Brit. ish consols and Frepch rentes. 7. The interest which England must pay, including Interest on recent war loans, Is but 3% per cent of the income of the nation. The interest on this is- sue will be one-fifth of one per cent of the incame,of Eyglgnd, ajons, |, 8.

A CERTAIN DUTY YOU OWE YOURSELF Build Up That Run-Down De- bilitated System and Enjoy Good Health. You owe yourself a duty, and that s, after you have overtaxed the vital orgi to such an extent that they have become weak and almost gxhausted, you should by all means take something which will help them to perform their dally work. A something is needed, and that some- thing has been found, that will invigor- ate and give them renewed strength to perform the dutles expected of them. You go on day after day, weakening your sye- tems through mental or physical exer- tion, and when you are all in, debilitated and almost too weak and worn-out to do anything, instead of taking something which will give you renewed vigor and strength, you drag through your work thinking this condition will wear off, only to weaken your already weakened sys- tem. People are often heard to say, “I have trled so many medicines, and have ob- tained so little benefit, I have decided to take nothing more.” True it ls, many people have tried hundreds of remedies, proprietary, patent medicines, home rem- edies, physicians’ prescriptions and noth- ing helped, but why not give Tanlac a trial? Some of the most skeptical people have been convinced of its unusual and wonderful powers and have publicly an- nounced the results obtained through its use. Thousands of the very best citizens throughout the United States, peopla who are able to judge impartially, and whose statements' carry much weight, are taking Tanlac mnd haven't the least hesitancy In recommending it. It is un- questionably ore of the most remarkable medicines of the age, as evidenced by the testimonials of people who have tested it.
