THE OMAHA DAILY BEE Rural Credit Co-Operation. The first rural credit association organized on the co-operative plan that has come to notice has been launched at Emporia, Kan. It has been chartered by the state bank commissioner, and its operations will embrace the entire state, Officers and directors are drawn from the ranks of practical farmers and kindred pursuits, bank- ers, publishers and other men of large affairs, o | showing a well-thought-ont purpose of placing | the organization before the public under favora | ble auspices. The plan of the association is to make loans | to members on the long time amortization sys- tem at 5 per cent interest, It is based on the | system recommended by the commission which | | made an extended study of rural credits In Europe. It differs only in detall from the sys- | tem of co-operation successfully demonstrated | by the savings and loan associations of the United States, a system which now embraces | mearly 7,000 associations, 3,000,000 members | | and an aggregate working capital of $1,400. | 000,000, What these associations have accom- | | plished among the thrifty people of cities 18 | equally possible in the country. The principle | Is the same. Buccess Is equally certain if the farmer associations command from its managing members the time, perseverance and intelligent direction which generally eharacterize the move- | ment in the cities. Moreover, the system vital- | izes the dormant spirit of co-operative self-help, promotes neighborly good will and rears a secure foundation for independence. In one respect the Kansas association prom- ises an fnteresting study. BExperience shows that two-thirds of the membership of & co-opera- tive association $upply the capital to be loaned to the remaining one-third. Loans made at the announced rate of 6 per cent per annum mean less the 6 per cent profit for the investing members. Time will determine whether enough investing capital can be had below market rates to meet the needs of borrowers eager to take advantage of low interest rates. Kitchin and the Wrecking Crew. Representative Claud Kitchin of North Caro- )ina has been chosen as leader of the democratic wrecking ctew in the house, and will ‘be the of the orgenized revolt against | the president’s pet plans. Kitchin and his com- rades have the assistance of Champ Clark, in whose bosom still brightly burns the resentment enkindled at Baltimore four years ago. This schism is entirely independent of, but is proba- bly supplenmental to, the opposition of Mr. Bryan and his followers in the house. It is no longer « matter of policies, but of personal politics. President Wilson has sought to dominate his party in and out of congress, but others aspire to that distinction and are unwilling to concede first place in the party’s councils to the presi- dent. 'This all means a continuance of factional bickering at the expense of public service. In- terests of the government are a secondary con- sideration with the democrats just now, but the people will find a way to reward this exhibition of peanut politics.

Editor Pontius writes to The Bee's Letter % With | Box on a somewhat pertinent topic, and in it sets out much of sound sense. He agrees fully with Editor Metcalfe on the main point, their difference arising over a matter of detail. This 15 one of the pecullarities of any discussion that involves religion. Dissension rages over non- essentials. The one central fact of religion is the Source, worshiped in every age, under many names and in many forms, never entirely de- fined, but endowed with the same attributes in every case. Omnipotent, omniscient, inscrut- able, He Is God, and has revealed Himself through the ages in divers ways to His people. The story of the race is one long recital of for consclence sake. Each individual has his persisted in. This nebulous knowledge has the stronger hold on man because of its appeal to the grasp of thought, In every way it fulfills St. Paul's definition of faith, “the substance of things not seen and the evidence of things hoped for.” On this faith have risen many elaborate superstructures of dogma snd creed, but all point the one way, and eventually merge into the one that leads to the gate called Straight. Nebrasks, among other blessings vouchsated to its citizens, gives to each and all the right to worship according to whatever form .meets requirements of the individual concerned. Editor Pontius may be assured the public discussion of religion will never cease, Bagar O. Enyder, The Bee's Washington Oorrespondent. ROHIBITION for the District of Coluvsbia looms P large upon the horizon of the national capital. Bills are pending in both the house and senate to make Washington “dry’ on November 1, 1916. The last measure, which is now before the district com- mittee of the house was introduced by Representative A. W. Barkiey of the “wet” Paduleak district of Ken- tucky. Both Senator Sheppard's and Representative Barkley’s bills make it unlawful to manufacture or sell intoxicating liquors in the District of Columbla after the date mentioned. The measure also prohibits express companies from delivering liquor in the dis- trict, For twenly yi I have lived in the city of Whashington, I have seen it grow from a good sized town into a city of metropolitan proportion. I have al6o seen a great change come over the nation's capi- tal through a stricter regulation of license and a reduction in the number of places where liquor is sold I have seen the “red lght” district completely wiped out and here and there a business house take the place of those that were once the scenes of rivalry and dissipation. Whether the elimination of the so-called “red Night" dlstrict has been a blessing or a fallure depends upon how you look at it. The inhabitants of that distriet have been scattered hither and yon hut vice goes on just the same, as the police court records indieate. Washington is a city of nearly 340,000 inhabitants, &' litlle less than & third of that number being colored which accounts, in a large measure, for the number of cases In police court during the year and the number of sentences to the work house and to the jafl. Under the form of government of the District of Columbia, which is the commissionership form, congress directly legisiates for the district, the lawa being executed by the commissioners. In my judgment a crime will be committed if the people of the District of Columbia are not permitted to express themselves by ballot upén the question whether Washington should be “wet” or "dry.’ Many of the representatives in con- gress have but a superficial knowledge of the city. Many of them come from districts in which there are no large cities and consequently have a hasy idea of what 1s neceasary to the orderly conduct of a city the size of the capital of the United States. There ia no city In the United States, so far as its government is concerned, just like Washington and it has no parallel in the world, so far as ita autonomy is concerned. The free cities in Burope, that are" practically supported by the government, preserve their franchise, but in Washington there ls no fran- chise and there is no way provided by the congress of the United States to ascertain the wishes of its citizens. It would therefore seem wholly logical that the congress should provide the machinery for a referendum vote upon the question of prohibition, as is provided in every city in the union. The constitu-~ tioh provided that there can be no confiscation of property without “due process of law" and whether “due process of law" is in the electorate or in the courts, the righta of all the citizens are safe-guarded. Here in Washington it is wholly different. The dis- trict committees of the two houses correspond to the councils in cities, while the commissioners, as before stated, execute the laws and adopt such regulations as the needs of the city warrant. Washington s a cosmopolitan city in a very much larger sense than any city of its size in the countrv, Here reside the ambassadors, the ministers and the representatives of forelgh governments. It is the “show” city of the United States, in which the people of the whole nation take & very pardonable pride. Tt in visited by thousands of tourista, It is becoming the winter home of the weaithy attracted here for num- berless reasons. It is the home of culture and refine- ment and 1s the one representative city of the great republie. It prohibition were fastened upon the dis- trict, Washington would cease to be the attractive place it now ik and would become almost a wayplace on the map. The traveler and the business man woull ‘avold it If possibie, and If business should call them here they would not tarry long after their business had been concluded. ‘Washington, under the present excise law, haa 272 dainty taste of & discriminating dilletante, he dis- saloons, or one saloon to every 1324 of population. The “saloon” In this case includes hotels and cludbs red-blooded | some thirty-three in number and therefore there are sort of expletive familiar to those who know | Sctually only 39 saloons. 5 T have no quarrel with the prohibitionists per me, analyse certain forms used in that far-off day | yut this I do know, that prohiBition is responsible for the introduction of a larger quantity of habit-forming to use “a good, round, mouth-filling oath, and | druks, in those states where prohibition exists, than in those states where license exists and when the friends of prohibition are endeavoring to fasten upon a state, or community, absolute ‘“dryness” they should not fall to also legislate against the use of cation, by adding the hortatory, monitory and ob- | drugs, that dull’the senses, sap the mind and create unholy desires. A condition confronts Washington and not a theory and the representatives in éongress from the great commonwealth of Nebraska when legislating upon the fort, an old fashioned “‘mule skinner” dilating on | subject of prohibjtion should be at least fair enoush to the citizens of the District of Columbia to give them & chance to say whether they want prohibition or not Surround such legislation with the strictest safe- he | guards, make such election absolutély clean, by mak- ing the marshal and the district attorney responsible for the fairness of the election and let only those vote who have both a property and an educational quall- fication. If the majority of this electorate should vote mwh.mamunau-unu. “dry” then congress has the voice of the people to guide it. But If congress should vote the district “dry” ascertaining the wishes of the people a grievous wreng will be done a community that has no volce whatsoever in its government. The senate banking and currency committee has men resent the suggestion that their matety 18 | ,,¢ 4¢ 15 not to be acquired in its greatest fluency | favorably reported a bill authorising national banks to avall themselves of state laws for the guarantee of bank deposits. It has been held that it would require congressional action in order that national banks would have the right to guarantee deposits. That the measure has the approval of the senate committee does not mean that it will become a law. Many national bankers are bitterly opposed to the Oklahoma-Nebraska idea of guaranteeing deposits. They call attention to the record of loss through fallure of banks in the national system since its in- auguration, less than 1 per cent, as an evidence that it.1s unnecessary; these bankers also contend that with the doubie liability law and the searching efforts of the controller of the currency bank deposits are safer now than ever before in the history of the nation. But if a national bank in one city advertises “de- posits guaranteed by such and such a fiduclary bond- common bellof of all mankind in a great Original | jng corporation,” it is bellevéd that others in the same city will have to follow suit. One banker, when questioned on the proposition, declared that it would "be nothing more than an enormous boost for the fiduclary bonding companies.” The measure would have no direct effect on Wash- ington &8 there are no local laws here, but it could be extended to permit banks In the district to guar- antee. Senator Owen of Oklahoma is the chairman of the strugglos for freedom of belief and persecution | p,niing and currency committee in the senate, and Oklahoma and then Nebraska were the original advos cates of the guarantee law. Local bankers have no hesitancy in saying they are opposed to the measure, but that it may be neces- sary In some places to permit national banks to coms something back of the imagination, and beyond | pete with state institutions operating under the sys- tem, but they say they know of no such competition in which national banks are not holding their own, Eight Mours Enough.

BRIDGES 2221 Manderson St The Chiropractic Iden. OMAHA, Jan. .—To the Editor of The Bee: and much has been said of late regarding epidemic of sickness, and in this connec- tion I wish to make known the chiro- practic idea of prevention of disease. First let s consider what constitutes health All nerves, irrespective of the system to which they belong, have their origin directly or indirectly in the brain. The brain is the great nerve center of the body, It has a prolongation, the spinal cord, which passes downward through a capal in the spinal column. This pinal cord also has prolongations called the spinal nerves which make thelr exit from between the vertebrae of the spinal column. The vitality and activity of every organ tissue and cell of the body is maintained controlled by a force or energy which is transformed or individualized by the brain, and then transmitted to their respective parts in the form of men- | tal impulses through the channels pro- vided by the nerves. ‘When the transmission of mental im- pulses s normal, both In volume and rapidity of delivery, al! bodily functions are perfectly performed with the result which is known as health: but when the transmission of mental impulses is in- terfered with the functions they control become deranged and the result is dis- ease. ises. Doctors know how to keep clean. It is to warn people who must call & physician, and do not know what such people should do, that this is written. Any doctor that does not take every precaution to keep from carrying scar- let fever from ome house to the next, should be reported to the health officer and county or city attorney, and if pos- sible his license to practice medicine re- voked, and a suit for damages insti- tuted, if it seems probable than any so- called physiclan brought scarlatina to a clean home, A physiclan from a city not thirty miles from Omaha was called to that city to mee a little girl sick with ascar- latina. This visiting physiclan went to the rear door of the quarantined home, changed down to his trousers and under- garments, put on his divers suit and Mnocked at the rear door. The house- keeper, opening the door, was frightened, never having, seen anyone in such a suit. Upon making himself and his business known, he was taken into the parlor to await the coming of the Omaha regular attendant. This physiclan arrived in a short time, rang the front door bell, was admitted and went directly to the little girl—sick with the most dreadful and fearfully contagious disease known to physicians. When told that the doctor who had been called In consultation was present, he came to the parior, met the visiting physiclan, and they went to- gother to the bedside of the little pa- tient. After the completion of their visit the village physician retired to the coal shed to clean up, the Omaha doctor went out the front way and probably to see other patients. This story is told to warn the people of Omaha. Watch doctors. . AN INTERESTED OUTSIDER. Get Together Medicine. NELIGH, Neb., Jan. 2.—To the Editor of The Bee: I noticed the article written by A. C. Rankin of Oxford under the caption of “Getting Together,” and I de- sire permission to reply to this article, not as matter of argument, but rather to-diagnose his case. Mr. Rankin In his letter says, “The thousands of republicans that were car- ried out of the party in 1912 by the sophis- tries of the pPogressive movement.” Yes, dear, but oh, Mabel, how could you? Then ‘again he goes on to elucidate, “The party was organized for the ad- vancement of no moral lssue, but pure unadulterated spite.” What a naughty, naughty party, it ought to be spanked. Then he says, “Let's get together.” Yes, thank the Lord, he made one sensible statement, but he uses the same per- suasive tactics I used to use when a kid and I wanted my bird dog to follow me. I would give him a couple of kicks in the slats and holler, “Come here.” Mr, Rankin seems to bewail the fact that the progressives called their con- vention to meet in Chicago on the same date with the republicans. How unfor- tunate.- They should not have dome it. 1t cast some reflections on the re- publcans, but we are promised that the Chicagoans will build a good wide side- walk from one convention hall to the other and that the walking will be as good in one direction as it is in the other, 80 we should worry. “Let's get together’ listens good to ‘Willie, but I am wondering if Mr. Ran- kin and the “old guard” will be willing to meet us half way between Root and Roosevelt. Mothinks not until after an- other ‘dose of that quack serum has been injected into their systems. J, €. JENKINS. Live Learn. OMAHA, Jan, 20.—To the Bditor of The Bee: Recently 1 have been worried for fear that The Bee, or some of its readers, had sald something that had offended Walter Johnson, and that we were for- ever barred from looking into, through his Jetters, the wonderful brain that has evolved such amazing creations but am overjoyed to find in today's issue an- other letter. describing, in a very lucid manner, an amazingly simple and cheap shell that will cause the enemy to take Yo his heels, or thelr future and eternal domicile, the choice evidently resting with them. I imagine that Mr. Johnson has been busy during the last few days work- ing out the details for this wonderful hell, which, no doubt, accounts for his silence. From the clear description given I think we poor mortals can have a alight idea what the augurs, pistons, ports, etc., are for, but it is not given us to fathom the mysterious reason for the dynamo, unless it 18 to generate current for Hght and heat so that the lonely shell might not become cold or frightened on dark and stormy nights on its thirty-two- minute flight through space, or the cur- rent might be needed for power for use on the alvahip used for holding the shell up during its thirty-two-minute trip. At first thought It might appear that the necessary electrical energy would come from the battery, but the mysteri- ous mind that has concelved this won- derful sheli will, most likely, give it a The only place in the body, however, where the nerves are liable to be inter- fered with is at the place of their exit through the openings between the ver- tebrae of the spine. Here we find the nerves between two movable bony seg- ments, a displacement of which means pressure on the nerves at that point an@l a disturbance of their functions. Thus, the chief contention of chiro- practic is that disease is really caused by a pressure of bone on nerve tissue, and that when this pressure is relieved function is re-established. A perfectly normal body would main- tain itself in a healthy state. It has power to expel poisons and to make antidotes to those introduced into the system. Disease germs cannot grow or thrive in ‘a healthy body. It is only those with a weakened system, through lack of functional power, that disease attacks. L. C. HAYBES.
