One of the comforting conclusions that may be drawn from the present flurry in military circles is that the American youth is responsive in the presence of danger. This has never been seriously questioned; on the contrary, it has been relied upon with implicit confidence, as the most important factor in our problem of national de- fense. It is not the primitive desire for conflict that leads these boys to the colors, for they are mostly young men who have been gently reared and carefully cultivated, to the end that the fruits of civilizing influence and culture are splendidly exhibited in them. Even the highest manifesta- tion of better breeding is shown by them, in their willingness to give over the easy life of daily rou- tine to take up the difficult and immensely harder existence of the soldier, because they believe it to be their duty. America will never lack for men to defend the flag under any circumstances. The question is rather of training than of willingness. Tpm— Maine and Minnesota. By primaries held this week in two more states the republicans of Maine and Minnesota have named candidates for United States senators sure to strengthen their tickets and help to regain the senate to republican control, In Maine the choice for senator is Frederick Hale, one of the militant young republicans who has gradually attained to a position of leadership by his own ability and by service to the public, Although outspokenly progressive, Mr. Hale has maintained his party regularity, having completed one term of membership in the republican na- tional committee, and having just been re-elected for a second term. He is one of the coming men | in New England, sure to be heard from when he reaches the senate. In Minnesota the republican senatorial nomi- nation has gone to Frank B. Kellogg, popularly known as the “trust-buster,” but really one of the commanding figures of the American bar. His analytical mind, his unequaled ability as a lawyer, his rare cuiture and his broad viewpoints on vital subjects will be of inestimable value in the senate. We are assuming that both Maine and Minne- sota will go “hell-bent” republican this year—for with such magnificent leaders there can be no excuse for any but hidebound demoeratic parti- sans in those states failing to vote the republican ticket. Did the Road Bonds Carry? { Refusal of the state auditor to register the road improvement bonds voted at our recent spe- cial election in April is predicated on the ground that they did not receive the requisite number of votes, although, on the face of it, there were ad- mittedly more votes “yes” than votes “no.” The auditor rules that the bonds must have polled a vote equal to 2 majority of all participating in the eléction rather than a majority of those marking their ballots for and against the proposition. He insists that this ruling has been reinforced by the courts on a number of occasions, but the courts have also held precisely the other way on similar points, In this instance the wording of the law is “upon a majority of the votes cast being in favor of the proposition submitted,” so the controversy resolves itself into an interpretation of this fan- guage. The ordinary reading would be that “a majority of the votes cast” meant a majority of the cross-marked' ballots and not a majority of the number of ballots handed out, for several thou- sand of these ballots were given back with no marks on them whatever, and, therefore, were not counted at all. If this were a contest between two candidates for office the one running highest would doubtless secure the certificate of election, but, involving as it does a sale of county bonds, it is imperative that the title be unclouded, for no bonds will find a market so long as the issue is open to attack because of disputed validity. The uncertainty af- fects their value, and it is better to have the challenge adjudicated in the courts before, rather than after, any obligations are incurred. m—— Trade Disturbances More Pronounced. As the war in Europe progresses, the dis- turbance of business of the world becomes more and more pronounced. Belligerent countries continually are taking new steps for the con- servation of resources or the restriction of com- merce, and neutrals are beginning to feel quite acutely the “economic pressure” incident to inter- rupted intercourse. Daily consular reports, made to Washington, are filled with the details of orders restricting trade or complaints of manufacturers and dealers against the situation. A noteworthy feature is that the commonest articles appear to be most in demand. Great Britain has just laid an absolute embargo against the trade in home grown wool; Sweden's glass factories are shutting down for want of soda; Italy has forbidden the importation” of “luxuries” and specifies a long list which includes many articles of almost daily necessity—this course to bring the people back to their own resources and simplify life as far as possible, The war/is not only making new relations, buf is forcing more vividly into view the interdependence ~f the nations of the world as members of one great family, among whom intercourse must be unrestricted or happiness is cur.iled. When the readjustment: is finally made, it must be on the basis of this fact, or it cannot long endure. Self-Condemned. The most biting criti of the course of the president in his dealings with Mexican' affairs is self-made in his order calling the National Guard to the colors. This is a tacit confession of inability to handle a situation he has himself a climax to a series of blunders that would be comical were less of trag- edy involved. The spectacle of the entire avail- able military force of a great world power pa- raded along the border of a neighbor nation to preserve friendly relations must amaze even em- battled Europe. The comedy began with, the first of a series of ultimatums sent to Huerta and 1‘17 that worthy sent to the waste basket. The era Cruz fiasco was a blunder, the Bryan letter to Villa a bit of stupid sentimentality, and the president’s connivance with Carranza has proved to be a piece of folly. Apologists for the admin- istration will be forcedk to the limit in defending the Mexican record. In the meantime, to quote the colonel again, “peace still rages unabated along the Rio Grande.” g ——— Governor Morehead can no longer plead ig- norance of the misuse of office by his chief food and oil inspector, 1f the governor does not act to stop the species of "holdup” which his food legislature to take a hand at’ calling 7 40, Account. . . i commissioner is practicing, it may devolve on | creme de cocoa and the same ‘somebe Ad Men Praise Nebraska Fourth Estate, ASTERN advertising men who spent last week touring through Nebraska as the guests of the publishers of that state have returned home full of praise for the conditions they found there. When the Fourth Estate asked F. J. Kaus of the Federal Advertising agency what impression he received, he said: “Nebraska leaves more than impressions with you. It grips and holds you in its embrace. It saturates you with its wonders. And you are thrilled by the speed of the autos. “Every town is a model fown, every farm a model farm. Prosperity stares you in the face at every step—real, genuine prdsperity—the kind that comes from producing. The stores in' the towns of Nebraska were a constant source of surprise. “I have seen Nebraska's towns and farms, I have talked with the villagers, storekeepers and farmers, and I am convinced of Nebraska’s ‘ad- vertising fertility.’” W. A, Baker of the Frank Presbrey company said: “It takes but a few hours for a visitor to Nebraska to become inocylated with the spirit of boost and progress everywhere displayed by the Nebraskan, Every citizen is convinced his par- ticular city—whatever its size or relative impor- tance to the general scheme of things—is the best town in the world. . A “I went into the state something of a skeptic. I left it with conviction that Nebraska in general more than merits evethhing good claimed for it. Business is booming, the farmers have. the money and keep it in circugtion, as evidenced by the big, flourishing stores, the pretentious, b‘“f banks, and the general air of prosperity. Agriculture and live stock raising have become gigantic in their scope, “Nebraska may be likened to a big boom town whose boom is of the perennial variety. Its citi- zens have ‘the goods’ to enthuse over, and not one of them ever loses an opportunity of indulg- ing his enthusiasm to the utmost limit.” F. J. Hermes of the Blackman-Ross cotpany said: “The general impression created by the Nebraska trip was that the people were live, prosperous and extremely responsive to advertis- ing. Advertised goods were very much in evi- dence everywhere, both inside of the stores and in the show windows. “The character of the stores, both in appoint- ments and stock, was amazing. The retail dis- tricts in practically all of the towns visited looked as though they belonged to cities of five times their respective populations. “There is no doubt about the prosperity of the Nebraska people. The very fact that thefv don’t say much about it, but let appearances tell the story, proves this most conclusively. “Everybody seems to have a strong desire to be up to date, and in this they are succeeding more rapidly than we are in the east. “They are making money and are willing to spend it. It is an ideal country for the adver- tiser.” A. M. Lewis of the J. Walter Thompson com- pany said: “Nebraska undoubtedly bears strong witness to the importance of the big western agri- cultural and small town markets. Its people evi- dently have overcome, with wonderful spirit, great obstacles in the development of that country. They must have practically made for themselves the resources that constitute them the potential market they are. “They are operating their farms and trades on a business basis. They understand profit and loss. Naturally this makes them an intelligent group of buyers, and for that reason a more de- pendable group from the advertiser’s standpoint than is to be found in many other sections of the country. “Their farms seem to be very prosperous and in a high state of cultivation. Their dealers and other business men seem to be well above the lveuge, and there is certainly a very definite at- mosphere of aggressiveness and co-operation,” . Harold F. Barber of the J. W. Barber Adver- tising agency: “A town of 5,000 population with a little gem of a hotel, of which New York City might be, rroud: in frons of the hotel a public square well turfed, under large shade trees where good band concerts are given twice a week; brick paved streets, public buildings of white marble; well dressed and lighted store windows containing quality merchandise (and the ‘quality’ according to city standards); nlpportinfi a daily and weekly of large circulation, equipped with linotype and every press with its individual electric motor, “Such a town 1 had the pleasure of visiting in Nebraska last week. The surrounding country is said to contain the same sort of soil as the Nile valley in Egypt—the most productive in the world. “The enthusiasm and energy of the people as | expressed in their marvelous agricultural develop- ment and the enterprise’ of their municipalities, would be beyond the comprehension of an east- erner who had not seen it, and is something which would be utterly impossible in the east. “There are few rich people, measured by east- ern standards, but everf-on: seems to be comfort- ably well off; the population has not had time to (settle into social strata so that all can and do work together, and the keen rivalry between mu- niclfinliun directs their energy toward making each a model town, “As for the farmers, it is absolutely certain they will have an abundance of capital to pur- chase anything under the sun of heaven which thef think they need. The standards are nat- urally different than those of the east, where the emphasis of living is placed upon the home; out there it is placed upon the farm and the homes are comfortable although not luxurious.” D. J. Ogilvie of the Cheltenham Advertising agency: “I saw the definition of ‘God's country’ as I traveled miles and miles through this rich (qrgn]n[ state, over seas of Nebraska prosperity, visiting farms conducted as business institutions surrounded by enormous tracts of land of almost unequalled fertility, through cities and towns standing as monuments to their builders with their wide, clean, well paved streets, lined with the beautiful homes of those who have ‘blazed the trail’ and reaped the bengfits of their indus- trious life in this great state, “These stately towns with their wonderful stores, a credit to towns many times their size, stocked full of up-to-date trade-marked merchan- dise, conducted by aggressive merchandisers who sell to a fast buying power extending for miles around. ¥ “The press of the state, reaching like an oc- topus in the homes of this responsive mass of people, is the key to the success of these mer- chants. “Here lies a fertile field of responsive people awaiting cultivation by all manufacturers who wish to reap a rich harvest.” People and Events The final appraisal of the estate of Robert Hoe, the printing press manufacturer, filed with the New York state controller, shows a total valua- tion of $8,374,619. His library, which was sold at public auction, and his art collection were valued at $2,500,000. Mr, Hoe died September 22, 1909, and willed the bulk of the estate to five children and a granddaughter. LA l_\nir-dreuinxphop adjoins a boarding house in Chicago. Nothing wrong about that, but it forms the basis of a $10,000 damage suit. It seems the open windows of the .hair store cause a draft which carries stray strands to boarding- house stews and puts the boarders in a stew. The case pramises to give the honorable court pure ‘material for hair-splitting.

Massena, Ia., June 20.—To the Editor of The Bee: President Wilson let ghe democ- racy rule by writing their platform himself and repudiated the platform they wrote for him four years ago. He. omits the one-term plank; he gives them uncrushed ti with tariff protected sugar to ‘sprinkle. His Americanism plank calls loud to all the sym- pathizers of Britain, Japan, Ru: France, Serbia, Italy and all the pro-allies boosters, who wink at his foreign policy and invite the allies to ignore American rights /by driving our eargoes of farm products into their own ports, thius setting the price or confiscating same. The delegates applauded the foreign’ policy’ that ninety days ago Speaker Clark told the president congress would repudiate by a four-to-one vote. Bryan declared that policy mesht the loan of the army and navy to England. The Gore and McLenmore reso- lutions are laid on the table because he did not dare let congress vote yes or no on the resolutions. The democratic congress who would vote “keep off belligerent ships™ saw that such a vote would eliminate Wilson from the nomination and be an admission that Bryan was right, so they simply al- lowed themselves in the interest of saving Mr., Wilson’s political hide, to be voted to table the resolutions. This is the history of his policy. Isn't it a.daisy? If Emperor William had not backed up, Mr. Glynn's keynote speech would not have been cheered, for it would never have /been written. Therefore the emperor kept Germany out of war with the United States, and the democratic delegates at St. Louis got their wires crossed and gave Woodrow Wil- son the credit of saving Germany a humil- iating defeat at the hands of American mies and navy, loaned to Germany's enemies by the peaceful people of America. T. 8. FENLON. Majors and Minors in Music and Life. Omaha, Neb., June 21.—To the Editor of The Bee: If one asks the average musi- clan what is meant by major and minor music, he will probably say that the ma- jor mode laughs and the minor cries. If you ask for a rule for modulation in the keys, or how to change from one key to another, like in medleys of popular airs, the answer will probably be that he knows of no rule and does not know just how he does do it. Such answers do not explain, but the second question is purely physical and can be shown easily by diagram. It is a little different with the first, which is psycho- logical, but for all practical purposes it can be answered in physics also. The first real scale of music (Sappho 610 B. C) is minor. There seems to be something more natural and easier to us in minor music, for it is in the wail of the Chinese scale, the Koochee dancer in the streets of Cairo and beneath the roars and whoops of the American Indian, one hears the minors appealing and wailing like the “sorrowful minor sixth” in the Scot- tish bagpipe. S Life itself seems most writ in minbrs, for there is more sorrow in this world than joy. A man does not whistle in minors to keep his spirits up, for it dejects them, but that is his tune as a rule. The poets dwell more upon ‘“this vale of tears” than upon the ‘major or optimistic side. Of course, no one knows, psychologically, why the major modes make for joy and the minor, for sadness any more than we know why deep in men's hearts there is more of sadness than of joy, other than that life is writ in minors. Still we can explain the difference, phys- ically, between major and minor music and here it is: The natural division in our two scales, major and minor between octaves or from the note to its octave above is by thirds and then by inversion down from that octave in thirds again. If to the melody we would whistle, there are in number more minor thirds or as we say minors predominating, than there are major thirds, then the' effect on the mind is that of minor music and vice versa. To show the ‘scheme of music, according to either scale, swings or better jumps along in progression to its end by the intervals of thirds or some of their harmonious modifications we can see with our eyes: Thus, any two sucecessive thirds make a fifth and three successive thirds make & seventh. A fifth by inversion becom a fourth. A major third by inversion comes a minor sixth and by inverting enths we get seconds. Thus we have all the intervals from one, the fundamental note, to the eight or its octave above or below. GEORGE P. WILKINSON. [—X No Pussy-Footer Here. ¢ North Platte, Neb,, June 20.—To the Ed- itor of The Bee: You are right about the primary election law. It was gotten up by politicians for the express purpose of keeping poor men off the ballot. Of the numerous candidates filing not one of them state what they stand for. But they flle and run—let them pay the orchestra. As for myself, running for office is my business. not interfere with my business. I have been elected as many times as Bryan has,'and defeated more. I can put it dver Bryan four blocks, Bryan goes into a convention and somebody tells him he can't run. I get 200 names on a petition, buy a postage stamp for 2 cents, send my petition to the gecretary of state and he puts my name on the ballot. And its costs me 2 cents, I beat the “plute” that aimed to keep me off the ballot as easy as 1 beat Bryan. Some people are curious to know why I run for office. Such people have no purpose of their own and suppose others to be like- wise. For their benefit and others that may be interested -1 give my platform, whose planks correspond to the ten commandments.
