No one in touch with the political pulse ,of | Nebraska doubts for a moment that Charles E. Hughes 18 the real cholce of an overwhelming nmajority of the republicans of this state. It is only a question whether the republicans who want Hughes can be sufficiently impressed with the necessity of “writing in’' his name in the ballot and shown how to do it without forget- ting to put the cross mark in the square oppo- #ite the written name, In a word, each of the Cther candidates who hope to mecure the presi- dentlal preference vote in Nebraska is relying nolely upon the advantage he enjoys by having bit name printed on the ballot, and the me- chanical ease of putting a cross mark opposite # printed name as against the onerous task of writing the A Beatrice paper last week suggested that the presidential preference wection of the bal- lot, If we are to keep It in the primary, should consist of nothing but a blank line requiring every voter to write in the name of his ghoice it he has one, If this condition now prevalled, it is plain that no other candidate would be In the running In Nebraska except Charles JE Hughes. 8o, write In the name and don’t forget the cross In the square, neme in, Richard Harding Davis, The sudden death of Richard Harding Davis at his New York home has removed an unique figure from the world of contemporary journal- fem. Mr. Davis had attained to some distine tlon as a novelist and aw a dramatist, but through it all he was essentinlly a newspaper man, His eurller ventures into fietlon were largely based on experiences in newspaper of fices, and were, perhaps, his ‘“best sellers.”” At uny rate, he never excelled them in point of in- torest, ulthough mueh of his latey work was on more ambitious lines, As a war correspondent he came into much prominence in conmection with the short-lived Graeco-Turkish campaign, and with the Bpanish-American . He wan at the front when the Japanese and Russinns were at close grips, and then went through the confliot between the Balkan Allles and the Turks, When the war cloud burst over Hurope, “Dicky' Davis was on the crest of the German wave, and for his enterprise all but faced a firing wquad “somewhere in nee,” actually having heen sentenced to death, His work was but it was serviceable, as a “passing brief chronicle of the time, and American perfodical lterature will miss much of Itw pleturosque quality because Richard Hard. irg Davis {8 no longer writing. The Reactionary Democrats, Bourbonism appears to he well entrenched In the United Btates senute under democratic control, The reactionary tendency of that body in Its most notable characteristic just at pres- ont. The vote on the measure to restore the tariff on wugar Is an example of ity practice. The noeed for this change in the taritf law I» admitted by even the most confirmed of free traders, for the treasury, depleted by the reck- lons oxtravagance of the party In power, must have the revenue the sugar tariff will produce, But the sonate adopled a substitute that will defeat the purpose of the house resolution, and throw the matter Into conference, In which delay may result In furthey loss to the treas- ury, Nothing {s to be gained by the action of the senate, except the delay, and for what pur- pose the action Is to he put off s beyond con- Jecture, Many Interesting and some vitally fm- jortant measures are being held up In the wen- ate, among them the Keating child labor bill, and the resolution providing for printing the report of the Industrial Relatlons commission. The democrats are putting to sleep progressive measures, while carrylng on a sham battle agalnst the “Interests,” hut they are deluding themselves If they think the people are not watching thelr course, — Nebraska's Compensation Law, The deputy labor commissioner's report on the first yoar's operations of the Nebraska Workmen's compensation law discloses many Interesting facts. First of all, it discloses that Industrial accidents In Nebraska are far more common than had been supposed, the total of more than 2,600 Indieating between eight and nine mishaps a day sufficiently serious to war- rant attention undey the law, More than $26,000 was pald under the direction of the Inw, for compensation and cost of ocaring for the Injured, proving the importance of the law ar & rellef measure., KExperience has shown that the law needs some changes to make its workings more effective, This s not surpris- fug, when the circumstances under which It was enacted are recalled, It was a patchwork creation, pushed through the legisiature at the last moment in reluctant redemption of prom fses made in platforms, It still has the oppo- sitlon of the ambulance chasers, who nearly thwarted ity adoption and later secured Its bhe ing sent to the referendum for endorsement Gommissloner Coffey suggests a number of rmendments, all worthy of consideration, and wome of which must be adopted if the law |s to be satistactorily administered IHis recom roendations for precautions to prevent accident portinent, and should be care emplayer and employe are ospeoinlly fully considered by These are hased on experience, and deserve the | losest attention R The federal supreme that St Louls is entitled to recover a tax of §2,300.000 court rules all strest rallways in the ety The company fought the tax (hrough the courts, and even Bew Appears (ndisposed to give up the money Mareover, the the tax 190), leaving four years of tares overdue, which another million to the pile, But §t jayousness unill \he money co in, A prodent move, in the hint 1Al the merger may be dissolved and force the eity to sue the f ments for the tay e e judgment eavel up o iraine | very view of An seonomie uplifter In Chivage discoversd tan important truths by pulting her theories 16 & practioal tes Ahe found that 31 cents s Afictent for o day's fond, but s & wondertul sonamie Toree as & welght reducer To those o are overwelghied the discavery comes an & woessane of Jar. with the added advantage of ving within the reach of all the alfiieted Louis | Talk About Hughes Slgniticance of a Canvass. Brooklyn Kagle: A canvass of every state in the union made by The Fagle during the last week (0 determine the present sentiment regurding the repub. llean nomination for president reveals the following For Hughes, thirteen states. For Roosevelt, five states Vor favorite mons, ten states UUndetermined, twenty stutes Based on the telegraphic reporis to The Kagle the nomines of the republican national convention, pro- vided 1t were 1o be held tomorrow, would be Justice Charles Tvane Hughes, Although the latter wouly have a large block of dele he would not have wutficient to give him a majority of the convention. The undetermined states will settle the question s sentiment in them Adevelops Inter There will be a total of 1,076 votes in the republican convention. The Hughes states at the present time will have 190 votes. Only five states are returned ns Roonevelt centers at the present time and they will have ninety votes in the convention. This leaves 4 balance of 44 votes to be distributed after deducting the 480 pledged to fayorite sons The favorite won vote, by the way, s not regnrded sorio'mly. 1t Iu admitted that most of this wupport will go elsswhere after the complimentary vote han heen recorded Hughes an Good an Nominated, Honton Transeript (Washington Correspondence)’ Aw the situntion stands today, Charles ¥, Hughes I8 wn K004 an nominaied, This 18 the conclusion of some of the winest minds in Waghington, and it is borne of by thy paychology of the mtuation, The current suk westion that “we don’'t know where Hughes stands’ cuts very little tigure here in Washington, where the record of Justice Hukhes has been conned over with microscopes and been found at every point to testify of virllity und wisdom, Thess are the exact opposiies of wenkness and ignorance, which are among the lond g aualities of the adminiateation the republican candidute will be called on to opposs.

In Washington at lenst bellef in the final triumph of the Hughes forces in the convention I nn entosted Ly the democratic oxpressions of delight on every hand over the ronaissance of Roosevelt gentl- ment. To be frank and brutal about it, the demo- crats wny they hope Foosevelt will be nominated, aa they belleve he would he the easiest man to beat, They fear Hughes would sweep the country like a whirls wind Sentiment of Middle W, Henry J. Allen, in ColMler's: 1t waws felt that Hughes Is the most avallabie, He was not involved in the factional auarrel. He has sald nothing to anger the hyphonated citizen, The lust time he appeared iipon the political horizon as governor of New York he weemed to be performing with distinguished abliity There ia still some discussion as to the propristy of his lenving the bench, but men no loiger ask if he would take the nomination, It in felt that he has minned too many good chunces (o #ay no, (o 1eave wny uneertainty upon that point. They are asking today what kind of & president he would make. Two months ako you could not get up an argument anywhere on that subject. The entire controversy was on the ques tlon as to whether he would accept the nomination, At that hour it was his by popular clamor. Now he I8 belng compared with Roosevelt on the merits of the situntion am they affect the natlon's need at an hour when the national life is menaced Thin unexpected development of the situation s too new to render propheay timely, The sentiment is per- focting tuelf and I belleve it will be several weoks be- tore it han renchod its final status in this section, This great thing has coms into the situation out here; there In u deep and honest desire on the part of probably u majority of the standpat leaders to nominate the man at Chicago who will make the beat prosident, "Thers will be discussions between the partisans of Hughes and Roosevelt as & matter of course, but it s belleved here that there will be no big fight in the Chicago convention over the presi- dent'al nomination, 1t will go either to Roosevelt or to Hughos, 1f we have war in Mexico or serfous Inter- nationnl difficulty elsewhere, the probability that If will ko to Roosevelt will be tremendously increaned. Teday n vote in the middle west would doubtiess give Mr. Hughes a majority of the active republicans. Growing Strength of Hughes. New York FEvening Post: We may be mighty cer- tain that all these progressive efforts to create doubt and susplelons in regard to Hughes are due to the fact that his eandidacy 1s seen to be growing In favor, It he wers only a remote possibliity at Chlcago, the colonel would not waste a dart upon him. But |f Hughes presents himself to Incrensing numbers of re- publicans in all parts of the country as the man who bids fairest at once to unite the party and to win the election, then, of course, something has to be done ahovt It, He must be discredited and got out of the wAy. No Lrother near the throne can be borne by elther Turkish or progressive sultans, Meanwhile, it 18 Intaresting to note the consensus of the Washington correpondenta on two polnts.

While it had been ldvll‘lllad lo - vance the cause of the prohibition amend- ment it proved to be nothing but a po- Htieal tirade. As when hunting wild Keene years ngo In Wisconsin I used a horse to deceive the geess and get close to the flock, so Mr. Bryan uses prohibj- tion as a screen to his real purpose and to get near to the people. His volce at times was surcharged with childish spite, when he referred to Senator Hitcheock, and when he was clearing the path of Brother Charley to the executive man- slon, of Candidate Neville, the golden rule seemed to be forgotten, No pledge of loyalty to the conatitution, no promise of strict Inw-enforcement was to be ac- cepted or belleved coming from any other candidate than Brother Charley.
