One of the features of modern warfare that will interest folks who think that battles are car- ried on exclusively with lethal agencies is the blacklisting of enemy business, wherever it may be found. This means of stifling the life of an opponent is as legitimate, perhaps, as dropping bombs on peaceful villages, blowing up merchant- men, or asphyxiating trench defenders, but it sug- gests a refinement of war to which the world is not yet quite accustomed. Great Britain is in a commanding position for the practice of this sort of offensive movement, because of its wide- spread domination of the markets of the world, and appears to be determined to enforce the ad- vantage to the utmost. Victims of this interna- tional boycott will have to submit with whatever grace they may summon to support them, but may feel sure that persistence in the practice will result eventually in the arrayal of such interests as may bring about a readjustment by which neu- trals may do business without consulting Britan- nia, “Drys” as Adepts in Politics. Thoughtless persons, who have carelessly classified the prohibitionists as possessed of a single idea, and without the worldly experience needed to safely guide them, may learn some- thing by following the course of the convention at St. Paul, Proceedings there have demon- strated the ability of the delegates as adroit politicians. The effort of leaders to railroad a prepared platform through the gathering is an example. The followers of the camel quickly headed this off and in other ways have shown themselves adepts at the work of gently manipulating things, so that they come to pass with the appearance of “just happening.” The presence of “Old Bill” Sulzer in pursuit of the- nomination didn't seriously affect the cinch of Frank Hanly on adding the honor to his other chautalking qualifications. The whole proceedings are edifying, because they show the progress made by the “drys” in ‘“practical” methods of politics. Preparedness Idea Makes Advance. The decision of Leland Stanford university to include military training among the require- ments of education at that school shows how the thought of getting ready for national de- fense is making headway. Dr. David Starr Jor- dan, president emeritus of this university, is one of the leaders of the movement against mili- tarism. The action of the university authorities, therefore, may be interpreted as acceptance of the fact that readiness does not include the in- tention to make war. Every recent experience of the United States has,shown how sadly our country is situated as regards this most vital ele- ment of national life. Even the National Guard, on which reliance was placed for the first line of defense, has been exposed in its weakness. Necessity for training for military service is much better understood now than a few months ago, and will be more generally adopted. Train- ing at school is one alternative to universal serv- ice. It may not prove entirely sufficient to meet requirements, but it is in the right direction. Our national neglect is being partly compen- sated for by a volunteer movement, and public interest insstrengthened as knowledge of national | needs becomes more general. The thought of | training to serve the nation as a soldier is not 80 repugnant as ‘it was a short time back. ——— . What is Being Held Up? Again the “watchful waiting” president at Washington admits that he is holding back something in connection with the Mexican situa- tion, A note, delivered at Washington over a week ago, is just given out at the City of Mexico, its contents suggesting a plan for settlement. The Mexican de facto authorities announce that the compact between them and the United States, for an adjustment of differences, is complete. Silence prevails at Washington, beyond the tardy admission that the note received here is similar but not identical in its terms with that given out in Mexico, If the president has reached an agreement with the Carranzistas, looking to an immediate and peaceful settlement, the people ought to know something of its terms. 1f Car- ranza feels free to publish it, why should Mr. Wilson hesitate? Is it possible that the de facto “first chief” has “put one over” and maneuvered our president into a still deeper hole? What is being held back? Cm—— No Reflection on Any Labor Organisation. All the hoboes, ruffians and petty criminals arrested nowadays assume to be members of the I. W. W, or are classed as such whether they assume tc be or not, and no pruof is exacted to support the title. But, even the devil ‘should have his due, and the I. W. W,, odious and dis- credited as it is with many people, should not be loaded ‘down with. any more sins than belong to it. If the professional hoboes thought they would get off easier by masquerading as Y. M. C. A's. or Salvation Armyists, or by any other name, they would slip the trick just as fast. So remember that by far in most of the cases I. W. 'W. is merely a convenient cover for the ordinary genus tramp who wants to make a living off the community without giving any return in work and has nothing whatever to do with any body of organized labor, much less with any real trade union of wage-earning mechanics. A Candid Testimonial. We speak of these things now because of the fact, and it is a fact, that here in Nebraska 3mle a respectable number of former working emocrats show an inclination to support Jus- tice Hughes for president. This quotation is from the editorial columns of the Columbus Telegram, whose chief pen- pusher, Edgar Howard, is running for lieutenant- governor as the nominee of the democrats in our recent Nebraska primary so that his testimony may be considered as reluctantly given and there- fore s0 much more dependable, - As the campaign progresses, the already “respectable number. of former working democrats” with an inclination to support Hughes for président will be steadily in- creasing and where the hard-pressed democrats will look for recruits t8 offset the defection is hard to say. While most of the democrat organs are less candid than is Edgar Howard, this en- couragement from the enemy's camp is not un- welcome to republicans all along the line, Sm————— 1 for its part in the war is to be control of both sides of ‘the Dardanelles.

At the same time a vote is to be taken on the question of resubmission of a state-wide prohibition amendment to the consti- tution. Public interest centers chiefly in the sena- torial contest, in which Senator Culberson is op- osed for renomination by a field that includes ormer Governor Tom Campbell, former Gover- nor Oscar B. Colquitt, Congressman R. L. Henry and several other democrats of prominence. Story-ette of the Day. When a man just naturally wants trouble it is mighty easy to find an excuse for making it. Ac- cording to Mike Hogan, Casey and O'Brien were having an argument of their own at Breckinridge street and Barrett avenue. It had progressed to the extent that each had forgotten what it was about originally and they were wholly oblivious of the nti\mnl crowd until an urbane and gen- teel person in a frock coat put in. "E e, come, my man,” he said, gently pluck- il y by the sleeve. ‘You don't want to fight;. I can tell it by your looks. Your face is too beni| » “Two be nine! Two be nine, is ut, ye scut?” bellowed Casey. “Me face is two be nine is ut?” And there was where the real trouble began. ~Louisville Times, Alcohol and Smokeless Powder. Omaha, July 21.—To the Editor of The Bee: Mr. A. L. Meyer has now invaded the Letter Box; he is a clever writer, but illogi- all men must be who defend a bad He has vered that alcohol is used in making smokeless powder and jumps to the conclusion that if the manufacture of lquor is prohibited, no more smokeless powder can be made! What a misfortune! The Japs would be on us instanter and we should find ourselves as unprepared as Rus- sia and Great Britain were at the begin- ning of the present war! The joker is in the word “liquor”—a word of wide significance—anything in a liquid state. But, as popularly used—especially in the prohibition campaign—it means intoxi- cating beverages and nothing else. Proof spirit—whisky—should contain 40 per cent of aleohol, which it rarely does, because water is cheaper than alcohol. Wines and beers are miuch lower in their percentage of aleohol. Now, as it takes pure aleohol to make smokeless powder, even proof whisky would be poor stuff for that purpose. Besides this, prohibition does mot propose to abolish the manufacture of alcohol for medicinal, me- chanlcal and artistic purposes. For these purposes the facture of alcohol may go on undisturbed, after the manufacture of aleohol for drinking purposes—liquor—has been abolished. It is not true, therefore, that .to abolish the manufacture of liquor, abolishes the manufacture of smokeless powder. : Mr. Meyer can make all the wood-spirit and denatured aleohol he wants to, without paying revenue; put up a powder plant; convert it into smokeless powder, after Ne- braska is as dry as a powder-horn, and be ready for the Japs or any other nation that dares to attack us. No, no, Mr. Meyer, you can't throw dust into people’s eyes in that way, nor awaken their fears by raising a false issue. Smoke- less powder has come to stay and so has prohibition. D. C. JOHN.

New York World: The University of St. Andrews, Scotland, has offered a prize of $500 for the best essay on prayer that renches the university before June 1, 1917. A length of from 4,000 to 6,000 words is suggested, but no limit it fixed. The idea Is » novel one and peculiarly characteristic of an age in which it has come generally to be vegarded that the judicous use of money can | secomplish almost angthing. Possibly & grest essay on prayer may be the result of this unique competition; but the religiovs mastere pleces of the past were mot produced after this fashion—8t. Augustine’s “City of God,” Thomas A. Kempis' “Imitation of Christ,” the works of St. Francis of Assisi, Jeremy Taylor's “Holy Living and Holy Dying," Bax- ter's “Saint's Rest,” Bunyan's “Pilgrim's Progress,” and many others that might be included. Such works are the result of holy living and aspiration as remote as possible from thought of worldly gain.
