November § ===y Thought for &c_ Day Asona lorks around the world, and as one looks areund our own land today, he sees that the one thing we need in high place—the thing whoss abesnce, among those who hold the reins ‘l:l. Bno “Ib. of hig est power, is making us all anzious wich regard to the progress of the country—is per- senal character. —Phillips Brovks. All right, then! Come on with your city plan and your social survey, In spite of the late start drug stocks promise to overtake and pass Wall street’s favorite “war tables.” War leaders vehemently assert that the war must be fought to a finish and that peace talk 1s useless. They protest too much, ’ Carranza is making us quite a few pledges. ‘We will see later whether they are ‘solemn cov- enants” or mere ‘‘scraps of paper.’” Governor Walsh of Massachusetts was run- ning for a third term when he stubbed his toe. Governor Morehead of Nebraska will take notice, it he is wise. The awful beating given the new constitution tn all quarters of the Empire state relieves Tam- many Hall and the Black Horse cavalry of the direct charge of homicide. BSecretary McAdoo announces that ‘‘an era of prosperity is on the way.” This Is the most acourate interpretation of republican gains In the week's election that has yet appeared. | The distinctive feature of Secretary Lan- sing’s prolific crop of notes is the absence of a fixed date of settlement. In this respect diplo- meacy mocks the literary efforts of financlers, « Even though the returns from the Big Four are not as “perfectly lovely” as they might be, the suffragists are entitled to the credit og mak- ing a distinct improvement in political parades, Another big crodit mark that belongs to our Nebraska teachers is the large proportion of . those who attend the meetings and general ses- slons and the small proportion of those who * play hookey." E—— Among other places in which Nebraska has been scoring noticeable progress is the improved appearance of her school teachers, Nowadays they are “style-all-the-while” and good to look ~ mt all the time. e—— Reports of good results flowing from con- solidated rural schools justify the claims of ad- voeates of consolidation. Unity of isolated parts makes for efficlency in education as in other lnes of industry. American firms doing business in Great Brit- ain through agents or otherwise might as well prepare to pay their share of the war income tax. The urgent need of money blocks the usual avenues of escape. A rousing old-time republican majority in Hamilton county enables Cincinnati to bear with sguanimity the crushing bankruptey of the duke of Manchester. Especially since the Zimmerman fortune was not kidnaped with the heiress. Apolio club was success. Light Guards hall, with this committes H. T. Riepen, W. J. Ward, J. A. Booth, T. E. Jones, A. J.

The censorship of news is again under fire in the British Parliament, this time its critics Leing more numerous and the protests more pointed and vigorous than heretofore fn this country, the wonder is, not that the tiethods pursued by the censors heve been criticized, but that the British publie, which has heen accustomed to a free press, should have so long submitted to the rigors of the present sys- tem Patriotlsm dictates that information of possible benefit to the enemy should not only be suppressed in the newspapers, but also excluded from all channels through which the enemy might obtain it There can be no question, Lcwever, that the undue gzeal of the cdnsor In keeping dark what the public has a right to know, has had its effect in creating not only am apathetic sentiment among the British people? but one of resentment as well. This {s human nature and the authorities who fail to recognize It are making a serfous blunder and chancing an upheaval which may sweep away the really necessary censorship. Progress Preferable to Fads. This early in the session of the State Teach- ers’ assoclation it s apparent the teachers are besieged as in the past with both faddists and promoters with personal ends to subserve. The vast majority of the teachers, of course, are com- rosed of the common sense, practical sort, who are really working along practical lines and who realize on the one hand that while everything that is new Is not a fad, neither 1s everything that is new and plausibly presented necessarily progress, If the vast majority were not men and women with practical ideas seeking for real ad- vancement the gathering would be worse than useless, but in the rush of a short session un- less everything is put to the test of common eense, the promoter will obtain indorsement of projects which the teachers themselves will later realize are impractical or at best no improve- ment over what they displace. A “Write-to-Your-Congressman” Formaula. “Many a word sald In jest is meant in earnest,” runs the time-worn adage, but whether meant in earnest or not, many a jest carries a pointed lesson. Satirizing the “write- to-your-congressman’ agitation on stereotyped forms supplied by paid promotion agents, that sprightly weekly, Life, suggests the following a8 the best letter that could be so addressed: Dear Sir: As you are doubtless aware, there will be & session of congress in December. 1 want you to consider not going. I was one of your constitutents who voted for you. Some one, 1 thought, had to be elected, and inasmuch as your name was printed upon the ballot, I cast my vote fog you, although I had never heard of you be- fore beyond a head-line or #o, and knew absolutely nothing about your qualifications. This, however, is not what I mean just now But we have been running along all summer with- out any congress, and we've been doing fairly well. Why not, therefore, do your share? Refuse to go any more. If all the others will do likewise the effect upon the country will be incalculable. 1 urge you to take this step at once. Don't go. (SIGNATURE.) It is, perhaps, a little bit strong to ask the congressman to forego his mileage and perquis- ites altogether, but if we should have a short wesslon Instead of a long session with corre- sponding curtaliment of legislative output, the thankfulness of a grateful constituency could not be repressed. Traffio Congestion Hampers Business. Again the ecry goes up that congestion of traffic is retarding business expansion and causing serious loss to shippers, the complaint coming largely from the seaboard terminals. Rver since the development of the present trans- portation system this hag been the plaint and the transportation companies have almost with- out exception taken pattern from the man with the leaky roof, who sald when it rained he couldn't fix it and when it was not raining it didn’t need fixing. It does not require an expert to see that with docks, trackage and freight ‘warehouses filled, extensions and construction work are out of the question, as it would be a case of confuslon worse confounded. Rallroad directors, however, have grown into the habit of requiring the managers to maintain as nearly »8 possible a constant ratio of expenditures to earnings, which, of course, makes it impossible to do construction work on any large scale dur- ing periods of dull traffic. Holding operating cxpenses to a basis of current earnings is good business and with it no one can legitimately complain, but outlay for permanent improve- wents comes under a different heading. Score One for the “Lid” Law. The conviction of a “lid-lifter” after a full Jury trial, carrying with it a revocation of the license to sell liquor and disqualification to se- cure another license next year, gives the lle to the statement that no conviction can be had for violation of the liquor laws in Omaha. The of- fonder in this particular case may be the “‘goat,” but the lesson should not be lost upon the other liquor dealers, who may be well advised that tkere is such a thing as overstepping the limit and belng “caught with the goods” without a get-a-way. They may also be advised that Omaha has a city prosecutor now who will go through when he starts, and is not to be scared or pulled cif where the evidence is clear against a willful offender, After a long silence Colonel John P. Irish of Iowa and Omaha memory jumps from San Fran- cleco to New York to get out of his system a tpeech on the suffrage question. The colonel's felicity of expression has modulated consider- ubly since his involuntary flight through the transom of the Jacksonian club with a flock of “gold traitors” during the rebellion of '986. Bank clearings for the last week of October is a notable exhibit of business expansion throughout the country. Only four cities report decreases, and these are of minor consequence. Omaha's showing of 27 per cent increase is a sratifying feature of a striking financial record. The country saved $90,000,000 last year by wearing out their old shoes and passing up the shoe shops. The figures carry the official stamp of the shoemakers and may be accepted as definitely marking a.season of uncommon com- fort for human soles. —_—— The sight of three distinguished federal Judges sitting together here for the trial of a case of more than usual importance, suggests that some day not too distant Omaha should be the permanent seat of a circuit court of appeals. To people | FRID. Y I Fallacies About Blindness Clarence HMawkes in the Outlook. The writer was blinded by an accident in 1853, HERE s proba no abnormal condition of lite #0 little understood and appreciated and about which 8o much that is erroneous has been writs ten as that of blindness The very conditions under which the blind live are 8o extreme and startling that thers has gradually been buflt up about them a world of fable and fancy as extravagant, If not as thrilling, as the world of talry stories. It {a to correct some of these erroneous ideas, as well as to point out other facts which are little less remarkable, though truthful, that this article s written. I have had hundreds of people ask me if 1 could tell color by the sense of touch. How any sensible person could get the idea that it is possible to tell color from the mense of touch is amasing. It is prob- ably partly due to the fact that the public wants to be eve all sorts of wild things about the blind, and | also becauso #ome blind folks, partly in fun and be- cause they like to astonish their friends, have prac- ticed a sort of magic at thelr expense. I knew & blind horse dealer who could really tell the color of & horse by the sense of feeling, but the color itselt had nothing to do with the feat. It was all performed through the fact that different colored horses had different textured coats. With some colors the hair was fine, while others were coarse; some coats wers smooth and others rough. Most biind people know the colors of the common flowers, and when a friend places a bouquet In your hand you are always able to recognize the flower by either the perfume or the touch, #o one can usually make a very good guess ae to the color, although in these days of new shades and widely variegated flora even that little artifice is rather dangerous. It 1s also a very common question to have secing people ask the blind if they can tell the denomination of different bills by the sense of touch, and many folks have told me that they kmew blind people who could There 18 only one general rule concerning bills that gives any clue at all as to their denominatiom, and this has so many exceptions as to be entirely worthless. Bills larger than one dollar are usually printed upon heavier paper than dollar bills—or at least that has been my impression, but the Treasury department might tell me that even that conclusion is erroneous. Most, blind people carry a pocketbook with several compartments and keep their bills of different denomi- nations in different compartments, so they know where they are. In that way they can readily make change and give the impreasion that they can tell bills by the sense of touch. There are things that they can do by the sense of touch which are even more remarkable, such as threading a needle by placing the end of the thread on the tongue and shoving the head of the nedle along until the thread is thrust through the eye, or replacing delicate springs in a typewriter and keeping the ma- chine in order. I recently successfully adjusted the reproducer on a graphonola which had become dis- cordant. This is a very delicate plece of mechanism and its adjustment is usually attempted only by an ex- vert. It would seem almost as wonderful for one without the sense of sight to trace the margin on a printed page of a book or newspaper to feel where the type leaves off and the unprinted page begins. Yet I can do that, while I have known blind people who woula read raised print through four thicknesses of a silk handkerchief, or play a plano with a spread placed Ovex the keyboard. To tell the welght of paper in ream lots within five or ten pounds merely from feeling one sheet would seem to call for a very expert sense of touch, yet that is possible, as well as to tell much about the texture and quality of the paper and how it was prepared for book use, It 1s probably due as much to the extravagant things that have been written about them as to the rather harmiess practices of the blind people them- selves that so many erroneous statements have got abroad. Twice Told Tales An Excellent Example. A venerable citizen of the Straddle Ridge neighbor- hood entered a lunch room in Polkville, Ark., dragging after him a gander-necked, lop-eared youth. “What kind o' ple have ye got yere?' he asked of the brisk waltre: “Peach — apple — mince — ralsin—punk's—Apercot —~lemon—blackb'ry and cokernut-custard!" she an. swered with considerable rapidity. ‘“Ptul~which?" returned the old fellow. The young lady repeated the lst with still greater speed. “Please say that over ag'in, if you'd jest as liv',” requested the ancient man. “Bay, lookee here!" demanded the waltress. you understand anything “Oh, yes'm; I understand, all right!"” to the lop-eared youth. triumphantly sald. & person kin talk terin’, ‘Can't He turned ‘There, now, Emmett!"” he You see it's jest as I told you; s fast as he pleases without stut- It he'll only take keer!"—Judge. Compulsory Volunteering. Senator Beveridge said the other day in Washing- ton: ““Women in England today hand white feathers to young men who haven't volunteered. These young men are booed In the streets and theaters. A young Englishman out of uniform s apt to be called a coward by every pretty girl who passes. “Under these circumstances the English volunteer system reminds me of the Bolivian general who set out on a recruiting expedition. He wanted volunteers to put down a rebellion. Well, after he had been gone about & week he sent the war office this telegram: ** ‘Volunteer spirit splendid. Am forwarding b steamer 150 volunteers. Please return the handouffs. Washington Star. Aimed at Omaha Fremont Herald: Omaha, whose creameries turn out more butter in a single day than Bigin, I, creameries turn out In & week, permits Elgin to dlotate the price paid for butter and also at what price it shall be sold. Omaha dubbed along for many years as a secondary grain market until s asserted itself and jumped into the position of third grain market of the world. Omaha needs a butter exchange where prices may be fixed independent of any other town on earth, Nebraska City Press: The Press is glad to note that, at this writing, at least one Omaha newspaper has denled that it received any pay for its “Billy" Sunday articles. The Bee emphatically denies the rumor which has been given prominence by the Fro- mont Tribune, the Press and a few other state papers. The Bee's denlal is emphatic and, insofar as this paper 1s concerned, sufficlent. We take Mr, Rose- water's word for it that his newspaper did not share in the distribution of any of “Billy" Sunday's weaith We only regret that it did not, because for what the Omaha pewspapers did for the evangelist and his “cause” they should have been pald. They not only printed the news, but they also gave splendia publicity, Beatrice Express: An Omaha saloon has just been closed by the city commissioners because the pro- prietors were convicted of violating the § o'clock clos- ing law, the conviction ocourring in what Mayor Jim terms the court of *'a two-by-four police judge.” After all, Sunday's visit to the Nebraska metropolis ap- pears to h stirred up some of the residents of that eity, Nebraska City Press: The “Sawdust Slide” is the name of a new dance, evolved and labeled by an Omaha dancing master.

REV_H. C. BURROWS, W. W. REF PrROF. R . INBODY, Committee, Different Views of Hell. OMAHA, Nov. 3—To the BEditor of The Bee: Now that Rev. Willlam A. Sun- day has departed from our midst and the temporary hysteria which has af- fected in the last seven weeks some of our leading prominent citizens and business men has subsided to a large de- gree, it may not be amiss to say a few words here about the man that Omaha has entertained for nearly two months. Far be it from .ie to attempt to dis- credit or belittle any real good that Mr. Sunday might have done in this cam- paign. If he has helped some poor devil to permanent turn to a better lite, ho is to be commended for that, but do the people and clergy of Omaha really ap- prove and commend the language and tactics used by this evangelist? Do the clergy of this ecity belleve that their cause can be helped by & man who villifies and insults those who happen to disagree with him, a man who seeks to implant in the innocent minds of chil- dren the infamous dogma of a lvid, burning, realistic hell? Do they ap- prove of his slanderous, vulgar attacks upon our school board, consisting of some of our most distinguished and prominent citisens, who are devoting their time and energy, without com- pensation, for the betterment of our echools and our community, and who simply did thelr plain duty in regard to his insolent and impudent attempt to force his way into our public schools? I wonder what the people of Omaha would do to me, or any other common everyday citizen of Omaha, If he got up in a public place and applied the same coarse epithets to Robert Cowell, a man of sterling character and Integrity! What is this country coming to, allowing such a man, using language condemned by all decent people as vulgar and un- couth, to run rampant villifying and trying to blacken the character of honest, courageous men whom he cannot bull- doze and banboozle Into swallowing his propaganda. His awful doctrine of hell has caused more unhappiness, more strife, made more insane than all other causes com- bined. Suppose that the wife and fam- ily of “Billy” Sunday honestly differed with him on their interpretation of the Bible. Suppose they honestly doubted the claim that its authors were inspired, refused to believe its miracles and child- ish stories. They all paes away and “Billy" takes his ‘reserved” seat in heaven while God consigns the woman he loved, the kind sweet mother who had borne him children, the dutiful and loving wife and the children to the eternal torments of hell. Could ‘Billy” rest content and happy in paradise, knowing full well that his wife and family were suffering indescribaoie tor- tures in hel How much more humanity, love and kindness there is in Ingersoll's view of hell: 1 honestly belleve the doctrine of hell was born in the glittering eyes of snakes that run in frightful colls watching for thelr prey. I believe it was born in the yelping and howling ana growling and snarling of wild beasts. belleve it was born in the grim of hye- nas and in the mallcious chatter of depraved apes. That dootrine was born of revenge and brutality on the one side and cowardice on the other. I have no respect for the man who belleves it or who preaches it. I have no respect for the man who will pollute the imag- ination of a child with that infamous le. T desplise it; I defy it; I hate it, and when the great ship freighted with the world goes down In the night of death, chaos and disaster. I will not be guflty of the ineffable meanness of pushina from my breast my wife and children and paddling off In some orthodox canoe. I will go down with those I love and with those who love me. I will go down with the ship and with my race. I will 80 where there is sympatly. 1 will go with those I love. Nothing can make me belleve that there is any Being that is going to burn and torment and damn his children forever." I ask readers, regardless of beliefs, which, In thelr honest opin‘on, is the grander, the kinder, the sublimer, the one seeking to propagate and impress upon emotional and innocent minds this terrible inhuman doctiTne, or the other, who succeeded, to such a marked degree. In freeing humanity from the bondage of this frightful doctrine? WALTER ROSICKY, 1701 South Twelfth street.
