Goss It is better to be kind than to be polite. g — ————— — — —————————} All right, Mr. Weatherman, if you insist on boosting Mr. Coalman’s games, But watchful walt'ng is not so popular with the hungry democrats still lingering In the trenches. Now that the budget is oft their hands, won't our ecity commissioners please transplant that ugly welcome arch to some other spot. No trouble to draw plans and lpoel.flflu:nl fgr further municipal improvements for Omaha. The real job lies in drawing forth the funds to foot the bills. All the democratic federal ple brigade and . ple expectants, to say nothing of other notables, are billed to attend the coming love feast at Lin- coln. Oh, it will be a glorious affair! ‘ij' the non-partisan character of ‘the Nebraska method of choosing a non-partisan Judiciary, the democrats always start out boost- ing democrats only. Of course, it's just force of habit. A postoffice robbery in St. Paul, a hospital robbery in Chicago and a train hold-up in Texas signalizes the opening week of the new year and indicates too much of a revival of industry along crooked lines. Searching for a democratic Moses around Salt Creek is risky business. If the searchers persist, Brother Charley will be obliged to ex- change a comfortable radiator for a chilly roost among the bullrushes, Memories of past wars are so thoroughly submerged in the present one that Spain has placed orders for $20,000,000 worth of goods in this country. The fact that the orders had to come this way makes the business no less wel- come.

Nex Lincoln papers are manifesting great solicl- tude about the after-elght o'clock traffic across the bridge between Omaha and Council Bluffs, Now that Iowa has been dried up, Lincoln has tender recollections of the accelerated travel to and from Havelock during the brief poriod that Lineoln went without saloons.

Trial of eleven directors of the New York, Haven & Hartford railroad company, ac cused of misdeeds in connection with the man- agement of the road, has resulted in the ac quittal of six and disagreement of the jury as to the guilt of five The outcome shows the fu- tility of the government's course in its pursuit of so-called “trusts” or “big business.” It is thing for an investigating committee tc make discoveries and another to establish the | criminal Intent or responsibility of those blamed | by the committee, The New Haven case, as it is commonly styled, on the surface exhibited signs of flagrant abuse of corporate power and ap- parent disregard for rights of stockholders and the public as well. As such it was looked upon as one that would serve to expose the interior working of the “money trust” and end its malev. olent sway. The case was thoroughly presented, with all possible information going to the jury. Former President Mellen, presented as the lieutenant of the late J. P, Morgan in the handling of the New Haven line, was on the stand for weeks and told the whole story of the deals whereby the New Haven system was built up. All the maneuvers were explained to the jury, which finally de- cided that the accused directors were not erimi- nals. In plain words, the government failed to prove what it had alleged, In principie, the case involved the question of co-operation or competition. This s not go- ing to be settled by law saits nor by the enact- ment of anti-trust legislation, but by the process of normal development of business. The po- litical aspects of the New Haven case, which in- clude democratic efforts to entangle certain re- publican leaders, as well as bringing a former assoclate of Attorney General Gregory from Texas to try the case, will not be entirely over- looked by the public in finally making up its judgment. Better means for publicity, and closer and more effective official supervision, is the ap- proved remedy for the evils that lurk in such’ ventures as the New Haven expansion. New Appeal for the Poles. The Poles of Americe have sent an appeal to Premier Asquith asking that the blockade be suspended and that relief ships, carrying car- goes for Poland, be permitted to pass through. This request, made in the name of humanity, should he granted without delay. It is one of the anomalies of war that a submerged people should be forced to endure the dreadful conse- quences of conflict that have overtaken Poland This unhappy land has been overrun by contend- ing armies, bent on errands in which its people have no part, and from whom they can look for neither sympathy nor succor. No section of the battle front has been more completely devas- tated than Poland, whose inhabitants are now left without food or shelter, and subject to still further trampling from battle. Aid in plenty is promised and ready in America, and the only question now, that of getting it through, is put up to Asquith, * Why is a Platform? Chairman McCoinbs of the democratic na- tional committee, has just written the Arkansas democrats that the Baltimore presidential pri- mary plank is “merely a suggestion,” and not binding on the party. Which raises anew the old question, “Why is a platform?” The Balti- more document was labored over very earnestly and very patiently by Mr. Bryan, who produced it as a masterpiece of political buncombe, full of promises and recommended as binding for what it contained as well as for what it omitted. It has since been rudely buffeted, and in its pres- ent battered condition bears but slight resem- blance to the carefully polished production so whoopingly adopted as an expression of purpose | and confession of faith by the democrats. One by one its most important planks have been #plintered by those pledged to their preserva- tion, until now the dogma of “let the peepul rule” boes by the board to join the “sacred ratio."” Two points on which extra emphasis was laid were the presidential primary and the one-term pledges. Both these were solemnly taken in the name of democracy and on them the nominee, now the president, took his stand. Ribald scoft- ers were put to scorn by the sincerity with which the nominee and his sponsor asseverated the sanctity of these planks. And the voters believed them! The platform was built to stand on. Now, look at the durned thing! It {s difficult in this connection to refrain from recalling the fact that Mr, Bryan was chosen delegate to tne Baltimore convention by & referendum through which the voters also ex- pressed thelr preference for Champ Clark as a presidential nominee, and that this instruction ‘was no more followed in letter or spirit than the platform which he imposed on the party, Chance To Do a Neighborly Turn, | Lincoln people want a welcome arch, Here's a chance for Omaha to do a neighborly turn, Let's give the Capital City folks the welcome arch that now spans Farnam street at Eight- eenth. This would serve to cement the friendly feeling between the two cities even more firmly, it it were possible, and will be doing ourselves quite a good turn, too. We hesitate to mention it, for fear the Lincoln folks might think the action inspired by selfishness rathor than gen- erosity, but they'll be as welcome to that wel- come arch as rain after a hot day. It is within the range of reason to say they can have it cost and carriage free, if they'll just come after it. Omaha is still ready to welcome visitors, and to show them all sorts of hospitality, for which the Gate City is famed the world around, but it is aweary of that disf'gurement that blots the sky In front of the city hall, Washington correspondents foreshadow lively times abead for congress. The prepared- ress program of the administration seems cer- taln of meeting the stiffest opposition within the party. Colonel Bryan is expected to take OMAHA, TUESDAY, What Are the D. T.'s? Literary Digest. HAT delirium tremens is the direct result of over- indulgence in alcohol Is well understood. But how does overindulgence act? And why shoull some hard dgnkers never ‘‘sce snakes,' while other and much milder victims visualize them degree that loss of life follows? According 1o oditorial writer in The Journal of American Medi- onl Assoclation these are still mysteries. Theories ot delirlum tremena are not wanting: but they are so many as to indicate that the truth Ja yet undis- covered In its completeness interesting, though disquieting, reason for revival of research in the subject just now. The writer tells vs that since the Harrison narcotic law went into of fect, many drug habitues, having exhausted their sup- ply and falling to obtain more, have turned to alcohol | as a substituts. In some who have been drinking for years the sudden and marked increase in the amount of llquor consumed has led to the frequent occurrence of delirfum tremens. After noting that “chronic alcoholic polsoning pro- duces well known changes in the central and peri- pheral nervous system,” he adds, in substance: As yet, however, no changes have been found in the brain which explain why a man who has been drinking for years suddenly develops a delirium which runs a definite course of from three to five days or even longer. “It has been thought that delirlum tremens is an acute Infection occurring in chronic alcoholics. Never- theless, many cases run their entire course without fever, and Nonne found blood cultures negative In fifteen consecutive cases examined by him. Dolken belleves that continued drinking of alcohol results in the production of a poisonous substance in the brain itself, and that an accumulation or concentration of this substance produces delirfum tremens. Jacobson explains the delifum as an autointoxication, the toxin arising from the pneumococcus galning entrance through the liver, the kidney, or the Intestinal tract, and acting on a brain which has been poisoned over a long period of time by alcohol. The view of Hertz differs from this in that the supposed polson which precipitates the delirium comes from an insufficlency on the part of the kidney. According to Bonhoeffer, chronio alteration in the intestinal tract is responsible for the elaboration of poison which is normally ex- creted through the lungs. Wagner von Jauregg be. lieves that the liver, rather than the lungs, is the organ which falls to eliminate the polson, and he thinks that this failure is due to the changes oc- curring in the liver in chronic alcoholism. Kauff mann has asserted that this polson is a carbon de. rivative acting on a medulla altered as a result of chronic alcohollsm. He belleves that the delirfum will | persist until the production of this carbon-derivative stops." All of these theories presuppose a poisoned cen- tral nervous system. It has been objected, however, that many chronic drinkers never suffer delirium, It has been suggested that different polsons may re- sult from excessive drink and that only one of these “may cause delirfum tremens. There are, however, stil other theories: “The possibility that delirium is due to an Increase in the pressure and amount of the spinal fluld has recently been considered. Jauregg of Vienna as- sumes that the body of chronic alcohollcs protects ft- self by the production of an anti-alcohol which is of the nature of an antitoxin. When a hard drinker suddenly stops taking alcohol, this anti-alcoholic sub- stance, having no alcohol to which to affix fitself, acts on the body In such a manner to to produce delirflum tremens. Hare maintains that the develop- ment of delirfum is due to a sudden fall in the amount of alecohol efrculating in the blood of alco. holics. His evidence i{s drawn from a study of sev. enty-five cases, in nearly all of which there was a great reduction in the amount of alcohol absorbed prior to the onset of delirtum. ‘“Numerous objections have been raised to each of these theories. The views concerning poisons and autointoxications have been vigorously attacked be- cause there is as yet no definite proof that such a polson is elaborated. There are already adversaries to the recent notions concerning the increased pres- sure of the spinal fluld and the fall of alcohol in the circulating blood, all of which indicates that much work remains to be done before the final answer to the problem is reached.” Twice Told Tales Back to Plowing. Into the room of the country editor came a bluff old farmer with his 1S-year-old son. “I've come for a little Information, sir,” he said, hopefully. “I shall be delighted to do what I can for you," was the polite reply. “Well, this son of mine wants to go into the literary business, and I thought you would be able to tell us If there was any money in it. It's a good line, isn't 17" “Y-e-es,” replied the editor, hesitatingly. been at it myself for a good many years, and- The farmer thereupon looked around at the shabby office, and then at the shabbler editor. “Come on, Willie,” he ordered.
