Wilson's Challenge to Bryan, The speech of the president in New York, made with the glowing fervor of passion stirred to fighting pitch, is less of an appeal to the palriotism of the people than of a deflance to those within his own party who oppose his poll cles. He clearly outlines his position on pre- paredness, already understood, but this time with a purpose quite distinct. He has been faced with a situation decidedly embarrassing, the open opposition of the former secretary of state and a formidable group of democrats in the congress making problematic the successful {ssue of any measure the president may champlon. It has been apparent for many weeks that Mr. Wil- son must negotiate with or openly defy Mr. Bryan, for the latter holds the balance of power in the democratic party, and his personal posi- tion will serve to determine the fate of any strictly party measure, Mr. Wilson is evidently of the opinion that the time has come when he must try his strength against that of his former premier, and his cholce of issues on which to approach the coun- try is made as affording the squarest of cleavage between them. Mr. Bryan's views on peace are too well published to admit of doubt as to his position. The president in taking the other end brings the issue sharply to a focus. It {s fortunate for the country, however, that the matter of national defense is not a partisan {ssue. Republicans are willing to support the administration in the work of providing for proper means of protecting the country against possible assault from any enemy, and this gives assurance that, without regard to the outcome of the Wilson-Bryan struggle for control, de- fense of the nation will be provided. SEe—— Brandeis on Supreme Bench. In naming Louis D. Brandeis for the vacancy Unique Suffrage Library HE Library of Congress has just been enriched by the presentation by Mrs. Ida Husted Harper ot "her magazine and newspaper articles on woman suffrage and the various phases of the so-called woman question during the last twenty years. These are preserved in twelve large, handsomely bound scrap books, the contents of each Indicated by gold lettering on the red backs. Bvery volume is carefully indexed, and altogether they offer a mine of in- | formation on this much discussed question which | will gladly be taken advantage of by those who ars Interested The books represent what may be termed the cur- rent events relating to woman suffrage and the gen- eral progress of women during this long period, as wek by week and year by year they take up the points of mpecial prominence just at that moment. It was during this time that Mrs. graphy of Susan B. Anthony and the last volume of the History of Woman Suffrage, and the fund of in- formation which it was necessary to acquire for this work contributed to the accuracy of these articles, so they are likely to be largely drawn upon by future writers on the subjects they cover. By no meana the least important part of this col- lection are the volumes contalning the accounts of the great international congresses of women held in Europe, beginning with the International Council of Women In London in 189. This was followed by others In Berlin, Copenhagen, Paris, Geneva, The Hague, Amsterdam, Budapest, and on down to the large meeting at Rome in 1914 Graphic descriptions are given, from the viewpoint of a delegate and speaker, of the distinguished people in attendance, the courtesies extended by the municipalities, the re- ceptions by queens, empresses, the nobility and others of note, garden parties, visits to institutions, etc. Ac- companying these are invitations, menus, pictures and souvenirs of many kinds. One page of maiden hair ferns and delicate blos- #oms is inscribed: ‘“‘Gathered in the little conserva- tory at the foot of thé staits leading to Tennyson's study.”” Under a cluster of pressed roses is written: “Placed in my hands by Queen Margherita of Italy,” and under another, “A rose from the bouquet of on the supreme bench, left by the death of Justice Lamar, President Wilson has sprung a surprise almost as complete as did his prede- cessor when he named Lamar for that high office. Mr. Brandeis i{s much better known to the public, however, than the man he is to suc- ceed. His activity in late years has been such as to bring him prominently into notice. His legal training has been complete and his mental equipment, the result of long experience in af- fairs of life, will fit him for the high place to which he is called. Mr. Brandels has not been much of a party man in politics, but has been an ardent partisan of the men and measures he has espoused. He was mentioned in connection with the cabinet when Mr. Wilson was coming into office, but the gossip at that time proved unfounded. The nomination will likely be promptly confirmed by the senate, and a man whose sympathy 4s strong with the common people will take his seat in our highest court. SEmpE— Rules for Submarine Warfare. Secretary Lansing has submitted to Euro- pean nations for approval a set of rules, formu- lated for the government of submarine warfare, or, rather, for the safety of merchantmen at sea and exposed to the attack of submarines. These rules embody the humanitarian principle insisted upon by the United States in its dealings with Germany and Austria in connection with the sev- eral cases in which passenger boats have been sunk and lives of Americans have been lost. In the main, the new rules require that the mer- chantman be warned, that provision for the safety of passengers and crew be made before and that attack is permissible only in resistance or flight, and must cease as the merchantman shows submission. Oa the other hand, the United States warns belligerents that armed merchantmen will be treated as warships, and will be accorded only such rights in port as are now granted to the latter. This formal recognition of the prineiple 1s important, because lately several Itallan mer- chantmen have reached American ports with guns mounted. Austrian and German protests were promptly lodged, and the present note is in reply to these protests. The mounting of a gun, even of small caliber, changes the nature of & vessel, and consequently deprives it of any immunity it may have as an unarmed ship. It the rules outlined by Secretary Lansing be subscribed to by the belligerents, much of the present occasion for controversy over the use of the submarine will vanish, because of its status being definitely defined. S — Foreign Trade and Domestic Blockade, The freight jam on the seaboard, and espe- clally on the Atlantic side of the country, has been noted for several weeks as one of the dis- turbing conditions in home trade. It is due en- tirely to the difficulty met in securing vessels to take cargo, a pecullar situation incidentalto the war, BSenators and congressmen are getting excited over it, and the Nebraska Railroad com- mission has called for a temporary embargo on munitions shipments, until the western grain has been sent to market. Any form of relief will be welcomed by those whose ordinary courses of business is interrupted, but just what remedy is to be applied is not easily determined. It will be well to keep in mind that our ex- port trade is made up entirely of what we are able to sell abroad. Just now European nations at war are our best customers, and they are apt to buy only that which they think they need and to insist on having first what they most desire. This phase of the question is self-evident. An- other controlling factor is the shortage in ton- nage. German ships are entirely withdrawn from ocean trade, and British ships are all under control and direction of the war office at Lon- don. Ships of other countries are taking such cargo as brings the hightest freight rates. With these conditions prevailing, how will the placing of an embargo on munitions shipments, or any other form of freight, help the blockade at home? i case of as 18 part of the tract known as European governments now at war will not ed | likelf g've themselves a gresat deal of concern over the Nebraska farmer's efforts to get his ohn and Fred | grain to market. The blockade of freight on the oo “N: eastern coast is annoylng, but it is because of & . shortage of shipping facilities, and not asecrfd- able to any particular kind of freight.

A very Interesting feature iz the number of autograph letters from eminent people in the United States and Europe, some of them possessing a value even beyond their signatures. In leaving these and other mementoes in the books, Mrs. Harper has shown & commendable faith in the honesty of the readers. Two volumes of especial interest are made up en- tirely of the series of articles that ran continuously for flve years, 1890-1%08, in the New York Sunday Sun. This was a period when the words “woman suffrage' seldom appeared in the newspapers, and they at- tracted much attention because of their wide range, fearlessness and satire. Men were much rasher in their printed utterances than nowadays and they were flayed without mercy, while the women “antis,” who were just beginning to organize, were joyfully held up to scorn. These several hundred articles give an ac- curate pen picture of public sentiment on the woman question ten or fifteen years ago, and they record also practically every Important step of progress, It was largely through the Influence of Miss An- thony that the Sun began the publication of theso articles, and she followed them closely and with the keenest interest. This was also true of Mrs. Eliza- beth Cady Stanton, and several of her letters are &iven In which she urges that they be put in some kind of permanent form and makes suggestions for future writing. Some characteristic of Miss Anthony are inserted, telling how she hurries home from church to read the articles, and a copy of a protest She sent Mr. Dana because one of them was cut! She carefully preserved them in scrap books of her own, Mrs., Harper herself has sdded a graphic ac count of how they happemed to be written and has made coplous annotations for the assistance of the . E— The story is told of many suffrage campalgns, in- cluding that of California in 1596, the first which at- tracted the attention of the country at large, Hear. ings before congressional committees are given; the Eranting of partial suffrage in various states and tne action of legislatures recorded. The suffrage ques- tion 1s discussed from every point of view, beginning Wwhen it was chiefly academic, and every possible ob- Jection ls analyzed and answered. As the years o by its development 1s followed into practical politica and the later volumes describe the victories in westera states and the effects of women's enfranchisement on the laws, their election to office, etc. Considerable space Is allotted in the books of 1914 and 1815 to the discussion of a national amendment and the debatea and votes in congress. ‘Through all the early volumes the personality of Miss Anthony runs like a thread of gold, as many of them were written while Mrs. Harper was in her home and they were working on the “History of ‘Woman Suffrage!’ and Miss Anthony's blography. For about ten years before her death their assoclation was very close, each assisting the other. Miss Anthony always sald that Mrs, Harper's pen came to her help Just as Mrs. Stanton's was lald asi®e. A number of Miss Anthony's articles also are contained in these books, and some which they wrote together. Mrs, Harper lived to see both Mrs. Stanton and Miss An. thony pass from earth and to preserve in these volumes the tributes of the press to thelr memory and her own appreciation of thelr character expresscd in various magasine articles. In & brief note of presentation Mrs. Harper says: ““These scrap books contaln a considerable part of my muagasine and newspaper articles for the last twenty years. They performed their mission at the time they were published, and, like all such ephemeral work, were not preserved by others in connected form. Because of their assoclations and their con- Vvenience for reference they possess a special value for me, but I think that at this time when there is so much study of the woman suffrage question, they should render more general service, For this reason I present them to the Library of Congress, although With the feeling of parting from my children. Aside from the assistance which they may offer to stu. dents, present and future, thelr fllustration of the gradual evolution of public sentiment and the stren- ous objections of the opponents will probably interest and amuse. “I am deeply appreciative of the opport - fered by this great library to preserve these :::’u:"' The “records™ consist of over 1,500 pages and form & collection of data which never can be duplicated.

It does not matter. Physicians do not treat diseases, they treat the patient. Dr. Connell may not be able for fourteen days after a fire to tell More whether it was set by a colored man, & boy or a woman, or whether it was by spontaneous combustion. But he ought to know there was a fire, and he should proceed to tear out the inflammable stuff and stop the burning as quickly as pos- the fire. Many children and adults, though ex- posed, do not contract scarlet fever, be- catse of their relatively pure blood stream and normal power of resistance. Germs cannot grow in a relatively pure blood stream, and the great need of the age Is to teach people how to live, so they will not fear or contract any disease. A cor- rect philosophy of life and right living would revolutionize humanity materially, lessen crime and prevent disease. In forty-three years of active practice in the profession, 1 have never lost a patient with scarlet fever and they should not, and will not dle, when treated by thor- ough elimination This means to get out of the system as quickly as possible the chemical tox- ines that keep up the fever and feed the destroying invader. First, not a particle of any kind of food except water so long as the temperature of the patient is above nmormal. Flush the system inside and outside with plenty of water to get rid of excrementitious matters through the skin, kidneys and bo' If neces- sary, as usually is the case, add a saline laxative every morning, for be it remem- bered fasting without purgation is tox- aemia. Open up the 2,600,000 sweat tubes and glands that even in a normal condi- tion of health throw out in gaseous form that, which if condensed to a liquid, is from two to four pints of sweat and polsonous matter every twenty-four hours. Aconite 1-100 of a drop every five, ten or fifteen minutes when the skin is Ary and hot, and there will be very little use for any other medicine. These brief rules properly followed and there will be no complications or bad after results, and the patient will be on the way to recovery usually in six days or less, There will be little or no peeling of the hands and feet, because the poisons have been eliminated and little damage done. The fire will have been put out because of the removal of the chemical and blo- loglcal waste matters that caused the fever. ¥resh made calclum sulphide tab- lets to the amount of from ten to twenty grains daily is of great value In some cases. Physiclans too often follow authority and dare not do their own independent thinking. They are constantly looking for the end products, or results of a dis- ease that should and could have been prevented. They fight the fever with death-dealing agents, rather than to re- move the animal or vegetable proteids that, decomposing, feed the germs, paral- yze the heart and cause death. Blind as & bat in the midday sun, too many physi- clans cling to their superstitions and au- thority and refuse to be taught, and have only words of derision and scorn for the independent thinker. “Truth wears no mask, bows to no hu- man shrine, seeks neither place nor ap- plause.

INDIANOLA, Neb, Jan. 21.—To the Editor of The Bee: Our attention was called by a neighbor, who said, “You are able to answer this and we want you to do IL" to am article in Metcalfe's Ne- braskan entitled ‘Religious Liberty,” when in fact it should have been entitled “Religious Tyranny,” for that is its aim and substance, We have known Mr, Metcalfe for years and have supported him and his itieas for fourteen years, but such an unjust and unreasonable article gettles it with us for- ever. It has lowered him in fairness, liberty and justice at least T per cent In our estimation; besides any one entertain- ing such an idea is not a safe person to be trusted in public affairs, and his coun- cll is dangerous with such brain leaks as that. We have always had it in mind that Metcalfe favored free speech, and, being an editor, favored u rree press, but his article proves the opposite. Metcalfe's article opposes anyone saying anything against another's religion. ‘Where would our religious liberty be to- day had it not been for Luther and many other fearless ones taking the stand they dld? The dark ages, the inguisitions, religious wars and massoeres, witcheraft, that caused the lives of 1,000,000 women and children, would still be here were It not for the lovers of liberty with feeling for the interests of the human race, and if Mr. Metcalfe kdows anything he knows if Russia, Spain, Portugal, the Central and South American states were allowed free religious discussion those countries would not be buried in ignorance, nor would the religious fanatics of Russia have banished 300,000 Jews less than thirty years ago, Metcalfe intimates that a writer should respect the religious feeling of others, but does mot even hint that religionists do likewise. Let me say right here that no one's feelings can be hurt too much who favors such things or whose doctrine is so weak, though backed by thousands of preachers, priests, a host of ald so- cleties, their Bible, Jesus and God, and cannot stand a few criticisms of the out- side world. If Metcalfe don't know that much he had better inform himself before condemning the free press. Metcalfe knows, were not the democrats allowed free discussion on the republican high tariff, and on their favoritism shown the interests, and the like, the G. O. P. would still run the government. Iavesti- gation and free discussion are the chief sources of information. D— a religion or any other Ism that gets offended at or can’'t stand investigation or free dis- cussion. Metcalfe made another bad break when he said, “No man's competent to pass on another's religion.” the entire world, their own little cliqus excepted. It does not require much sense to see, if & man preaches the golden rule and practices the opposite, that it isn't “pure and undefiled religion” he pos- sesses, but religious hypocrisy, and Met- calfe's article favors such hypoorisy or he would not oppose just criticlsm on re- ligious matters. Meteoalfe's article is an fnsult to the freedom of the press and & memace to our free institutions, and would place & ! If this be true he | should advise the preachers not to attack &8 upon those who are liberal, fair and | court new ideas, because his article says #0. It slso shows he is with those who believe in the doctrine, “If a man be ignorant, let him be ignorant still i I Cor. xiv.a. Metcalfe has but one of two things to #elect. Join the crowd whose narrowness causes them to whine at investigation, at fair open discussion and whose doo- trine is that He who has ears to hear let him hear, believe and have faith, or Joln our crowd whose doctrine is He that hath braine let him think, reason and in- vestigate and stand firm for the freedom of the press.

Minneapolis Journal: Therefore, if Sen- ator Kenyon's bill becomes a law, and expatriated Americans, male and female, have to pay an income tax in this coun- try of anywhere from 3 to 30 per cent, in adgition to the Income tax at home, the incomes of some titled Americans may be dissipated in taxes. It is estimated, for instance, that Baron Astor of Hever Castle will pay in this country, alone, something like $5,000,000 annually. Sen- ator Kenyon is the boy!

Having this power, congress will appreciate the responsibility that goes with it and avold any policy that even savors of confisca- tion.

If a much larger revenue becomes a me- cessity it could be derived from this tax without seriously oppressing anyonme. CHEERY CHAFF.
