K. Taplor. T Better Care for the Insane. A report made to the Commercial club by a | committee that made examination into the meth- ods and provisions for the care of insane persons | discloses some facts that should impress the public. The need of better means for housing, treating and otherwise providing for the insane in Nebraska has long been understood by a few, but Dr. Bannister brings it fairly into the light for all. These unfortunates have not always had the best of treatment, for many reasons, but principally because of the entrance of politics into the administration of public charity. Not only is better housing needed, but more efficient management, and this can only be had by giving something of permanency to the factor of super- intendence. The Bee renews here its recent sug- gestion that Douglas county and the city of Omaha consolidate their hospital activities and make more adgquate provision for the accommo- dation of unfortunates who become\ public charges, or who must be looked after through public agencies. The need is not only apparent at this time, but will increase as the community grows, apd therefore the filling of it should be no longer neglected. Peace, the President and the People. Keynoter Glynn begs support for Mr. Wilson for the reason that the president has kept the nation at peace with the world (always exclud- ing Mexico). This string will be touched in every key and twanged on every stop as the campaign goes forward. The cold, iconoclastic fact is the president could not have done otherwise. He can not alone make war on any one, and no pretext that has yet appeared would have served him, had he wanted war ever so much. The people did not want war, and do not want war, and the president has taken his cue from them. A year ago, when the heart of the nation was bursting with indignation over the Lusitania, the president withdrew himself for days, that he might get a sense of the deep feeling of the American nation. At that time he was given assurance of patriotic support from his countrymen, but be heard no de- mand for war, and taking his inspiration from the people he followed their wish rather than leading their thought. f Only a few weeks ago, when the controversy with Germany had come to a serious point, the democratic reactionaries in congress compelled the president to give them assurance that he had no thought of war in mind. Otherwise they pro- posed to invade his prerogative and take over the handling of foreign affairs, The sacrifice of American dignity and American prestige has amountdd to nothing with these “patriots,” who preferred political advantage to national honor. Now they raise a clamorous din, shouting the president has preserved the nation at peace, and are going to parade themselves before the public, claiming credit they do not deserve. ‘The sham of this “battle cry” is too apparent, and will be readily and effectively exposed. Mr. Wilson wi!! get full credit for all he has done, but will also have to accept responsibility for the blunders he has made. This is not a good year to try to fool the voters, who will demand facts. Consider the Case of the Baker. The convention of master bakers, now meet- ing in Omaha, has so far given its attention ex- clusively to its own business, but some of this business is also that of the people who consume the output of the bakeries. Part of this was dis- closed when the president of the association, who happens to be an Omaha man, called to notice some conditions that affect the baker in his deal- ings with the public, and consequently touch very closely on the breakfast table, concerning which the democrats formerly exhibited much solicitude Mr. Burns showed how the cost to the baker of the materials he uses in his processes has gone up all along the line, varying from 915 per cent on lard to 90 per cent on cotton seed oil products, with wheat flour registering 354 per cent in- crease; rye flour, 59 per cent and sugar 82 per cent. At Baltimore four years ago the democrats specifically charged the “high cost of living” to the operation of the protective tariff, and began the redemption of their promise to lower the cost of necessaries by putting sugar on the free list; which action has since been reversed by them! Now they are boasting of the unexampled pros- perity of the country, and saying nothing of how the price of foodstuffs has mounted. The little recital of costs given by the master baker ought to be kept in mind by the family providers of the country, when they come to consider not only the case of the baker, but of the fellow who must buy of the baker in order to keep soul and body to- gether, “Enemy” Captures Our Navy. Omaia’s navy has been reduced by exactly two-thirds of its numerical strength, due to the unexpected activity of an “enemy” from the north, While the good ships Ada Bell and the Julia were in harbor at Decatur, and still in Nebraska waters, a pirate from the north opened fire on them, and when the smoke of battle cleared up enough to show what had happened the ships were his'n. Whether it was a case of “low visibil- ity” or the inefficient operation of the range find- ers is beside the question. The heavy guns of the invader did the work. His ammunition was of 'a superior quality, being of the very best turned out by Uncle Sam’s treasury, and there- fore his assault was undeniable. In the future the Ada Bell and the Julia will plow the South Dakota waters, and the port of Omaha will know them no more. But is our maritime commerce to languish because of this untoward event? We trow not. The Julius F. Silber still floats, and while it is in commission the wharves of Omaha will present their usual spectacle of teeming life and industrial bustle. But it might be well for the marine authorities of the village to see that Julius doesn't get too far up or down stream, for fear of being overtaken by some such disaster as has just been chronicled. This commercial war is a terrible thing. When President Wilson charges that “there is disloyalty ‘active in the United States, which must be absolutely crushed,” of course he cannot possibly have intended to include a certain demo- cratic United States senator who shot off in the senate aminunition against the administration furnished to him by agents of the foreign propa- ganda. [ The report of the bank examiner on the con- dition of that wrecked Decatur bank corroborates The Bee's exposures of mismanagement and fore- ‘shadows an even greater draft on the deposit - guaranty fund, which the well:managed banks must make good. The next legislature should ‘Heed the lesson of this experience. { HE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, JUN How Heavy Firing Affects Animals Literary Digest. OME curious and interesting observations upon the psychological effect produced on ani- mals by the detonations of big guns have been recently made by a German veterinary surgeon named Reuter and are published in Umschau. The animals considered are the horses and dogs used for military purposes, and the game in the area of warfare. [t was noticed soon after the beginning of the war that the latter began to mi- grate into Luxemburg, Switzerland and the por- | tions of France and Belgium not the seat of hos- tilities. The first to flee was the “black game” (a term which includes the wild boar, the badger and the bear), whose senses are specially acute. Then the roebuck and the red deer followed, but strange to say the hare, whose timidity is proverbial, continued to occupy its usual territory. The larger birds likewise, such as the grouse, the pheasant, the sea-cagle and the wild duck, were driven away by the heavy firing. Strange to say, the wolf, which is famous in German folk- lore as follower on the heels of Mars, and which was expected to regain lost ground in the pres- ent war, has shown itself very gun-shy. Another curious fact noted by Mr. Reuter is that the song- birds, such as the lark, the thrush and the finch, have not been driven away by the thunder of the cannon, and continue to hold their nests and sing their songs in their accustomed haunts. Other birds which remain unfrightened are various kinds of owls, falcons, sparrow-hawks, crows, etc. Another interesting observation is that ani- mals vary in sensitiveness of temperament just as do individuals and races. For example: “The Canidae (dogs, wolves, jackals and foxes), with their highly developed nervous sys- tems, possess a high degrec of sensitiveness. Only the intelligent and long-trained house-dog shows itself more resistant to the shock of detonations. In the same way, among horses the thorough- bred and the half-bred are more sensitive than the cold-blooded. Animals which are by nature easily excited, and also those ih whom there are already signs of some malady of tle nervous sys- tem (as neurasthenia or hyperesthesia), are less resistant. The German war-horses, though as- sembled from the most various sources and for the most part untrained, have shown themselves capable of becoming more quickly inured to the noises of battle than are, for example, the cele- brated Russian horses Nebraska Press Comment Nebraska City Press: guished journalists at the Chicago convention we glimpse Henry Clay Richmond, Victor Rose- water and the incomparable William Jennings Among other distin- Bryan. And, as might be expected, each fellow sees the situation from a different point of view, However, it'is quite entertaining. Beatrice Express: “Bryan lambasts the re- publican party” is a heading of an article in which the Commoner sets forth his views of the re- publican national convention now in session in Chicago. The republican,party is rather used to this sort of thing on the part of Nebraska's “extinguished” democratic leader and, in fact, rather thrives on it Clay Center Sun: The gentlemen who arranged the itinerary of the ad men who visited this dtate this week from New York, evidently need a course in “seeing Nebraska.” There are a lot of fine towns in the North Platte country, but had the arrangement committee been desirous of sending these gentle- men back to their New. York homes filled with the raptures of Nebraska, they would certainly have divided the week, at least evenly, between the section north of the Platte and t{e grand coun- try south of that erratic old wanderer. That any bunch of advertisers should visit this state and not visit the Old Trusty Incubator factory in this city is an absurdity which those New York visitors will appreciate more than the committee in charge of the trip. It may be of interest to some of the Omahogs to know that the M. M. Johnson company of this city makes the largest advertising appropriation each year of any firm in the state. They may also take interest, and they certainly will gc edified, to tind out that Clay Center is the home, not only of the largest incu- bator and brooder factory in the world, but is the home of one of Nebraska's greatest flouring mills, one of the world's greatest collie kennels and one of the world's greatest Shetland pony studs. We believe the Smith factory at Exeter and the Dempster works at Beatrice would have appealed to these sightseers and given them com- mercial visions to carry home that would have profited this state far more than anything that could possibly have been shown them in any town on the trip as arranged. A careful scrutiny of thinvv, as arranged, indicates that The Bee and the World-Herald made the route and made it | for the purpose of exploiting that portion of the state which, because of just such things as this, 5ives that city mote enthusiastic support than oes that unequaled portion of Nebraska known generally as The South Platte Country and lo- cally “as the finest country that lays outdoors.” People and Events + Some of the fine points of American industry show themselves in the report that forty-nine factories making needles and pins are enjoying a business boom. The educational uplift in Philadelphia required in 1915 an even $1,000,000 more than in 1914. The increased cost and decreased school revenue were covered by a $2,000,000 thirty-year loan. A Cleveland girl, all dolled up in her Sunday clothes, slipped and sat down in a puddle of what looked like chalk water. It proved to be glue. She was rescued by three strong men, one of whom got stuck on the job and feft his shoes. The girl left a yard or two of her clothes. Brooklyn is not only a City of Churches; it claims distinction as a city of dogs. A census by the health department shows a canine popu- lation of 500,000, equal to half a dog for each family in the city. Coney's celebrated “hot dog” emporiums have no perceptible effect on the dog population. A treasure trove of §1,800 discovered in a hole in a grocery store in Baltimore brought up stand- ing three former owners of the building as claim- ants and three lawyers as advisers. When the court turned the matter over in its judicious mind it picked the finder as the winner. Solomon in all his glory couldn't beat that. Fish were not biting very much when Charles Snyder cast his lines from the bank of the Wa- bash and was awakened from a fisherman's nod br a tickling of his shins, On shifting his posi- tion he discovered a five-foot snake curled up under his legs. It was the genuine article, with- out the faintest trace of a cork. A fifty-year-ago column of the Atchison (Kan,) Champion discloses the fact that Atchi- son indignated in those days over the case of a Massachusetts soldier who served his country four years and ten months in a rebel prison and on his return to Duxbury was put in jail for re- fusing to pay four years back poll tax. In connection with advertisements telling how fortunes may be made by investing in Greater New York real estate, the Brooklyn Eagle offers this first-hand advice: “Beware o(th: real estate company that promises 6 per cent on its deben- tures, Real estate does not pay 6 per cent in this city. Three or 4 per cent is nearer the mark.” The bonus spur is pushing wads of money into the pockets of workmen in some munition fac+ tories, One company at Harrisburg, Pa., turn- ‘ing out shrapnel shells, pays a bonus on shells turned out above a certain number. As a conse- quence skilled workmen are pulling down from $90 to $150 a week. An amateur machine worker rakes in from $30 to $50 a weck. AL YA SR 0 A SRS oot S i AT ok 16, 1916. Jansen Reports to His Constituents. Chicago, June 14.—To the Editor of The Bee: I would like to say a word through your paper to the republican and progres- sive voters of the Fourth Congressional district of Nebraska. Having been honored by election as delegate to the republican national convention, I take this methpd of making my report. When I became u candidate for delegate 1 stated that my personal choice for presi- dent was. Justice Charles E. Hughes, but that [ would abide by the wish of the vot- ers expressed at the primary election in April. As the result of this primary vote, [ cast my first ballot in the convention for Sen- ator A. B. Cummins of lowa. It being evi- dent that he could mot be selected, I voted for Justice Hughes on the second and third ballots, and feel proud of the result. It was purely a case of the office seeking the man, and the convention was absolutely without “bosses.”” The delegates thought and acted for themselves. Our national and state tickets will be elected next November, and we will be rescued from the incompetent hands of the democratic party. Thanking you for the confidence reposed in me, I am, yours for republican success, PETER JANSEN, Flag Day in the Kitchen. Omaha, June 14.—To the Editor of The Bee: While glancing through your Letter Box I discovered the article “Engineer's Right to Pay,” which is positively correct in every respect, but do you ever hear of a “cook’s right to pay” and if they have received any extra pay for the extra volume of business done on Flag day or did they see the parade? Ask one of them: you surely are acquainted with one of these galley slaves. In regard to engineers, they are classified as professionals. Is not & cook a professional? 1 say yes and no the same as an engineer, especially when he ob- tains a passenger run, so is the cook when he obtains a passenger run in the kitchen or becomes chef in a house of repute. When I say “cook,” don't confound me with what is termed in the culinary art “shoemaker” but one that begins at the bottom the same as a real engineer, and in course of time, after he shows ability, he is gradually pro- moted until some day he gets a passenger run, or in other words, becomes chef after many years of drudgery as scullion, pot- washer, knockout, roustabout, helper and most all of the menial jobs a kitchen has to offer. For stepping stones to become a real cook he is offered the hottest job in the kitchen, which gives him the privilege of wearing & white uniform amidst surround ings, in some kitchens, where “champagne frappe” would taste like a glass of spiked ale. Now, of course, you don't know me, and I doubt if you would care to cultivate my acquaintance, but as far as having authority on the above parenthesis, I can refer you to authentic authority on the definition of the word “shoemaker” when applied to cooks: for instance such men as Emile Bauer, past chef of the Fontenelle; M. Becker of the Blackstone in Chicago, J. Miller, chef steward Elizabeth building, Chicago. Now for your Omaha kitchens, those hell-holes of kitchens in several of the hotels—I won't mention the little fellow because I know he would soon be made public. Still you ery for pure food, clean bread, ete., and dis- play a banner “Welcome, Master Baker.” Did you ever hear of “Welcome, Cooks?" I never did in Omaha, but once in the United States thece was a small contingent of union cooks and waiters had a picnic on a Sunday many years ago, and over the gate leading to the picnic grounds was scrawled on a rag “Welcome, Cooks and Waiters.” Speaking of waiters, here’s a hot one: In & certain well-known restaurant here in your midst (I won't mention any name) I saw listed on the menu “Little Neck Clams.” I ordered a dozen, and the stew- peddler tartly informed me that clams were out of season the same as oysters. “Well," I said, “Garcon de Premier, (this phrase is considered quite chic in Missouri valley) T admit that you are right in regard to oysters, but as to the other succulent bivalve your education has been sadly neglected.” He also stated that he had toured the en- tire world, including Nebraska, and he knows of no first-class place serving clams in the summer months. Now, don't get me wrong, I am not of gambling proclivities and very much against its indulgence, but knowing as I do that among some waiters there are some good thoroughbred sports, 1 began to have visions of velvet, but the poor fish crawled. About the half-baked cook, why don't a paper like The Bee, which has such good edi- torials, and a reputatio cond to none, in my estimation, agitate so as to compel the people who are responsible for allowing these unsanitary dumps or so-called kitchens to exist? They are the breeding places for one-half the disease or white plague that we are being cursed with these late years. Thre are many cooks raising families that are above reproach, who must work under the existing conditions or starve (and at the wages they are forced to work for in Omaha, the result is practically the same). The bakeries have been taken out of their underground holes—why not the kitchens? It is positively unlawful in most eivilized countries to allow these underground sweat shops. If you think this article an exaggeration of conditions in Omuha, ask any fair-minded mother to visit Burns' Bakery and then the Hotel Schlitz or the Rome when it is about 90 in the shade and publish her opinion. Remember I am not advertising a brand of bread, but the baker has many shades the best of it, for he can prepare his work at least twelve hours ‘in advance and then leave it to anyone to serve, while the poor cook must not alone keep it hot, keep it from drying out and serve it hot, but must prepare it as cheap as possible. 1 suppose $ou think the Harrison act has been re- pealed. Very well, then touch a match to this epistle, then you will have a little smoke, for my pipe has gone out. A COOK. No Interregnum in This Country. Council Bluffs, Ia., June 15.—To the Edi- tor of The Omaha Bee: Will you kindly answer the questions contained herein by letter or in the Bee? I do not know whether you publish a “question box™ column or not. I read The Bee every day and would be sure to see it if the questions were answered in the “Letter Box” column, The controversy is this: A claims that “thg next president of the United States will be a democrat, even if Mr. Hughes is elected at the next election.” He bases his claim on the fact that March 4, 1017, falls on Sunday. He says that, according to the constitution Mr. Wilson and Mr. Marshall will be out of office at noon, Sunday, March 4 (provided they are not re-elected). Then the secretary of state would be automatic- ally promoted to the president’s chair and would hold the office of president for twenty- four hours, beginning at noon Sun March 4, and ending at moon, Mon March 5, when the inauguration of the re- publican president would depose him. Now, B's contention is thi Sunday is not legally recognized as a day on which public office can begin or end. If Mr, Hughes (provided he is elected) cannot be legally inaugurated on Sunday, then Mr. Wilson cannot be legally deposed from office on Sunday, and his term of office would, therefore, continue up to noon, March 5. A’s answer to this is that the rule worl« “automatically,” whether March 4 or any other date be the end of the term of office of the president and v"ce president, Which is right? We would consider it as a favor if you would answer this for us and give reasons for your answer. J.B. T, SIGNPOSTS OF PROGRESS. Eighteen thousand ;r\:ks can be manufae tured by the steam process in ten hours. About 100,000 persons are engaged in the meat-packing industry of the United States.

The doors of a new street car, designed with the safety of passengers in view, can- not be opened while it is in motion, and lhe! car cannot be started while they are open. The United States sold more agricultural implements and accessories in Venezuela in the first six months of 1915 than in any other entire year. This trade has been ben- efited because of the good prospects the war has brought to the Venezuelan sugar industry. The book production of the United States for last year was the smallest since 1908. Inciuding pamphlets the total for 1915 was 9,784, as against 12,010 for 1914. Unsettled trade conditions and a decrease in importa- | tions were mainly responsible, but far 'rnm; being lamentable it was an advantage, see- ing that there were great increases in his- tory, including war books, business textbooks and works on domestic economy. | Advocating the increased use of paper ap- | pliances and utensils in the household, a | writer in Good Health says that there are | now about thirty household articles made from vegetable parchment paper—among | them ice blankets, dishcloths, bed protectors, | ete.
