The letter of Colonel Roosevelt to the pro- gressive national committee, formally declining the nomination for president, is not that of a disgruntled leader, but is the utterance of an earnest patriot, who seeks his country’s good. The colonel frankly and fully discusses the situa- tion in all its bearings, and, laying stress on the purposes of the progressive party, writes: “I do not believe there should be a third ticket. I believe that when my fellow progres- sives coolly consider the question, they will, for the most part, take this position. They and I have but one purpose—the purpose to serve our common country. It is my deep conviction that at this moment we can serve it only by supporting Mr. Hughes.” Answering the argument of some of the pro- gressives, based on the action of the Chicago con- vention, Colonel Roosevelt writes: “As regards this point, it is sufficient to say that the members of the republican convention were unquestionably induced to nominate Mr. Hughes primarily because of the belief that his integrity and force of character, and his long record of admirable public service would make him peculiarly acceptable, not only to the rank and file of the republican party, but to the people generally.” This language admits of but one interpretation. Colonel Roosevelt sees in Mr. Hughes all the qualities the progressives sought in a leader, and finds in the platform promise of success for the party’s ideals. He therefore urges all the pro- gressives to get in line and give whole-hearted support to Hughes. His criticism of the Wilson administration is sharp, but is a deserved ar- raignment of the president’s policy because of its failures and its shortcomings, its temporizing and avoidance of issues. The letter is as clear a call to arms as ever the colonel sounded, and the bull moose should follow their leader into the new campaign, full of enthusiasm and a willingness to meet the new condition, the success of which is so vital to the country's future, Weakness of Our National Defense, Whatever else may be developed as a result of the call to arms for the National Guard, the country is being given an impressive object les- son of the inefficiency of our military prepara- tions. This is not set down for the purpose of criticising the officers and men of the National Guard, who are earnest, sincere, and deserve only credit for the great sacrifices they have made to preserve even a semblance of military organiza- tion. It does expose, however, the fallacy on which the sense of national security has rested. For many years, ever since the Spanish war, in fact, students of the military problem of the United States have urged that more attention be paid to the National Guard, since it was to be depended upon as a factor in the first line for defense. These appeals have gon¢ unheeded. The Guard has been neglected, or compelled to exist on the most scanty of accommodations, and that it has any organization or serviceability at all is because of the enthusiasm of the young men who have gone into it and given their time and energy under most discouraging conditions. The plain lesson is that if we are to rely upon the National Guard in time of need, we must make better pro- visions for its support in time of peace. Is It “Political Demise?"’ We stated editorially in our issue of May 2% ' that one reason for the political demise o William Jennings Bryan is that, by his own ad- mission, he has not added anything of moral principle to his character since he was twenty- one.—Collier's Weekly. Yes, but has he mfi’c'red “political demise” this time any more than on the several previous occa- sions when his political obituary was written? That remains to be seen and will have its answer in large measure in the outcome of the impend- ing presidential campaign. Suppose Woodrow Wilson is as badly beaten as was Alton B, Pnke’r, but with no possibility of blaming Bryan or hold- ing him to account for lukewarm support? Sup- pose Bryan's enemies who captured nominations on the democratic ticket in his home state of Ne- braska by assailing and excoriating him are smashed to smithereens under the fire of adverse votes? To whom then would the democrats have to turn for leadership to rescue them from the slough of despond if not to Bryan? Bryan looked deader politically in 1904 than he does today and yet in 1908 was. renominated by acclamation for a third run for the presidency as the democratic standard-bearer, The whirligig of American poli- tics has turned many sharp corners and may turn another one before Bryan is permanently demised. e— Democracy in the Army. One of the “feature” stories coming up from the camp at Lincoln is to the effect that a recruit asked Governor Morchead to mail a letter for him, and the governor did as requested. Why shouldn't he? They are both citizens of the same country, and equal under the law. Official posi- tion makes only an artificial and temporary dis- tinction, while an act of courtesy is always in order. This is the quality that has distinguished service in the American army at all times, It has been extensively commented upon by mili- tary critics of all countries, During the war of 1898 the European experts attached to the United States army were especially struck at what to them seemed lack of discipline manifest around the camps. One British officer expressed aston- ishment that a group of troopers did not spring to their feet and come to attention when an officer passed, but admitted that the men were the most magnificent soldiers he had ever seen. This quality of democracy is at once the pride and despair of the scientific warrior, but it is the thing that makes the American soldier the most efficient and dependable -the world has ever known. cEE— As evnts move along with thrilling speed, it is clear that President Wilson has reached the point requiring a practical application of his rule of action described in his address to the Wash- ington Press club last month: “If I cannot retain my moral influence over a man except by knock- ing him down; if that is the only basis from which h.: will respect me, then for the sake of his soul I have got occasionally to knock him down.” Sm—— Besides other atmospheric perils below the border there is General E.

Hughes as the republican candidate for the presidency should be given to Victor Rosewater, editor of The Omaha Bee, by his fellow party For many months Mr. Rosewater was orter of the New York jurist, using the space o f\is paper almost without limit, be- sides engaging in the work in other ways. In the nominating ballot the Nebraska delegates were all for Hughes, putting this state right in line for a sharing of the honors. members, an ardent su Columbus Telegram (Edgar Howard): Vic- tor Rosewater leans to the belief that- all the complimentary words written by democratic edi- tors about his part in carrying the Hughes pro- gram to success were intended to breed dissen- sion in the republican’ranks in Nebraska. I don’t know how it may be with other democratic writers, but in my own case I want the young man to understand that my words of compliment were purely personal. And again I repeat that in all the Kistory‘ol Nebraska politics it is not recorded that any individual ever made an up- hill fight as successfully as Victor Rosewater made in behalf of Hughes in Nebraska. If Victor does not care to keep the prize he won at such great risk, then he may do what he may please with it. But still the fact will remain that Hughes would have remained in the Estabrook class in Nebraska but for the leadership of Victor Rose- water. Norfolk News: Vic Rosewater made such a goad press correspondent for the w. g. c. d. dur- ing the republican convention that we've a notion to give him a regular job. Plattsmouth Journal (Dem.): Victor Rose- water thinks he is in the “republican saddle” in Nebraska, but just wait until the campaign gets well under way and he will find himself occupy- ing a back seat. Really, the leading republicans have but little use for }X{osewatcf. Blair Enterprise: Vic Rosewater of the Omaha Bee will be justified in displaying a chestiness over the nomination of Hughes. Vic steered the Nebraska delegation right into the bandwagon early in the game. Hastings Tribune: The Omaha Nebraskan, which is a strong democratic journal and is edited bfl' Richard L. Metcalfe, gives Victor Rosewater, the talented editor of The Omaha Bee, full credit for the good work done for Hughes in Nebraska. ‘That is what we would call giving credit to ' whom credit is due, York Democrat: Dr, Victor Rosewater has every reason to_ puff out his chest and walk lightly, time? And didn't he go right back to Chicago and make it happen? And hasn’t he made a lot f‘{‘ w.on;gd-be critics take the dose and admit they ike it L{nch Journal: Victor Rosewater of the Omaha Bee certainly deserves much credit for helping to keep active and to organize the Hughes sentiment, not only of Nebraska but of the nation. ~ Twice Told Tales Her Proof.

The Beesp Lellor B; Make Him Support His Family. Osceola, Neb., June 26.—To the Editor of The Bee: I read in your worthy sheet the sad case of one Mrs. Parks, who was obliged to exist on a nickel's worth of dry rolls for more than four days, while her husband is earning $3 per day. Surely such cases are revolting, and make one wonder what some people are made of any way. And when we think that there are 100 of similar cases in the state of Ne- braska caused by the same demorn, strong drink, do we not feel it about time to march to the polls and cast out the demon by casting our vote for a dry Nebraska? But that is not what I started out to say. 1 notice the man was sentenced to ninety days in jail and I think here is the thing which makes us appear ridiculous. What is the poor woman to do now? Is she still to live on 5 cents a week or starve? Or does any one care? Does it help her any to have her hushand locked up for ninety days or even for ninety years? My solution of the matter would be that the prisoner be put to hard labor. Make him earn $3 per day and then let the au- thorities give this money to the depending family. REV. THEODORE J. ASMUS. Fruits of Watchful Waiting. Massens, Ia., June 26.—To the Editor of The Bee: Watchful waiting might have been & beneficial policy had it not-provided for the raising of the embargo of arms to Villa and Carranza, enabling them to tear down the government of Mexico and terror- ize the noncombatant citizens of foreign lands as well as the peaceable Mexicans. Who will dispute Mr, Taft being the proper watchful waiter. He had an embargo on firearms and thus protected the government from rebel bands. He wisely foresaw the folly of allowing bandits access to arms and he therefore failed to meddle in their internal affairs and avoided having groups of bandits clamboring for his tance to set them up in the governing bu 88 in Mexico. Mr. Lansing’s note is a confession of fail- ure in having set Carrahza up as the ruler and protecting him by an embargo, after raising the embargo on arms that enabled the now denounced Carranza and Villa to tear down the Huerta government. The assistance and the arming of bandits has | given Mexico those frightful years of terror, to be wound up by intervention at a cost of life and expense to the people of the United States. Mexico was on fire, therefore the watchful waiting provided the powder to keep the flames burning while Carranza and Villa fought over the spoils. The fact is the Mexican policy merely fostered a lizard, and named him Carranza in the indictment drawn by Mr. Lansing. Mr. Wilson refused to recognize Huerta and three and one-half years of terrorism is the outcome. T. 8. FENTON. Would Suppress Wooster. To the Editor of the Bee:—I was very much surprised that you would permit such an article as appeared in your paper this morning signed by Wooster. I have al- ways believed in the policies laid down by the Republican party, but such unjust criti- cism of the President of the United States from a supposed citizen is all wrong. Such narrow minded unAmerican criticism is the way to insure the re-election of the Demo- cratic candidate. Wooster may have been at one time a splendid citizen of the U. 8. A, but his friends or relatives should find some way to stop his expositions of senile decay. The person that will stoop to such attacks on the highest officer of his government, placed there by the people, must have something amiss in his moral make up. Isn't their some way that such people could be made to live up and drink to that great toast, “My Country: May she ever be in the right, but right or wrong still My Country.” WENDELL HARRISON NEBRASKA EDITORS.

Baltimore American: The women are also responding to the call of the times, and nurses and hospitals will be ready when they are needed. The women of the country have always nobly come forward to serve their country, but these times have added efficiency and expert knowledge to the epirit of service and self-sacrifice which in all times has been the same. Springfield Republican: The presidential campaign has opened with the betting 2 to 1 in favor of Hughes in the New York financial district. One reason for the odds is that the old republican party seems about to be reunited; another reason is that Hughes twice carried New York state as s candi. date for governor; still another reason is that there are more kinds of people who hate Wilson in New York City than in any community in the United States.
