Hartington Herald: A democratic contempo- rary wants to know how there can be any joy in the republican camp when there is no way to credit the gain in bank resources to a repubfiun tariff law. Well, laying party politics aside, the American people got more joy out of resources fourded upon a protective tariff than they do out of profits drawn from the battle fields of Europe. rd Quiz: The democrats are just now fond of quoting Lincoln’s saying about swapping horses while crossing a stream; but there are exceptions to all rules, i‘le is a_ chump who would not swaj if the horse he was riding balked, or became wea and wabbly and showed signs of lying down with him in midstream. At this time there are strong symptoms of determination on the part of the voters of this country to do some horse swapping next November. Wausa Gazette: We note by the dailies that Bryan is going to take the stump for Wilson in the present campaign, in the east, but so far we have seen no intimation made that he will be on the stump in Nebraska for Mr. Hitchcock or the democratic state ticket. When asked if he meant to attend the democratic state convention, Mr. Bryan replied that the brewery gang has nomi- nated the ticket and are welcome to take care of the coming campaign, and probabilities are that he is of the same opinion still.

The democratic Columbus Telegram appears to be greatly distressed because the platform adopted by the democrats to go before the people’ of Ne- braska this year is silent on three subjects that it thinks should have been included. We main- tain that the platforms of all the parties are plenty long enough even though they might have readily been made to cover many more points. Political platforms have rightly come to be looked on as mere outlines of party policy on vital issues rather than detailed programs. Formal declara- tions are good guide posts for the voters so far as they go, but they must be accepted with due allowance for the general reputation of the party behind the platform for veracity, fidelity to ob- ligations and capacity for performance. The best possible promise from some one with a known record of repudiated pledges or proved to be in- competent to deliver the goods is not worth much. It is dependability and performance that count, or should count, as much as platform pro- nouncements, — Blaming It Onto Electricity. Some entertaining diversion is afforded by the views of a correspondent, who maintains that the sun does not send out heat, his belief, appar- ently, being that the cause of those blistering days during July was either a superabundance or a misbehavior of electricity. Another eminent Omahan, who has amused and edified the public by his wireless manipulations, comes forth with the word that hay fever is occasioned by elec- tricity. And who is going to say them nay? A few years ago we had some definite notions about such things, and had even evolved some “laws” to govern them. Then came radium in the wake of helium, and between the pair they upset all ideas of matter and natural forces and their laws, and required that scientists hastily construct a new cosmos. This was built on electricity, and there you have it. In present day science, the electron is the basis of the ion, and from them we build up. So, if electricity is the primal cause, why may it not be the real reason for the sun’s so-called heat, the irritating element that makes the hay fever victim sneeze, as well as the active agent in other forms of good and ill in life? We know it used to be the thunder that turned the milk sour in the pans, and it was lightning that caused the thunder, and now we know electricity causes lightning. Thus, gradually, we are bringing home the underlying influence, and with confidence may we blame it all on electricity. And, so long as we know no more than we do of electricity, its whys and wherefores, we are safe in thi Fending Off Trouble. Premier Asquith gracefully fends off further trouble for the British government by proposing to extend the life of the present parliament until the end of May next. In doing this he is able to evade the complexity involved in the proposed extension of franchise to include all soldiers in the field and all munition workers, This proposal is complicated in some degree by the presence of woman in the munition factories, and the awkward fact that it would be ungallant, at least, to permit her to assist in saving the country by doing a man’s work in the mills and otherwhere, and at the same time deny her full participation in the shaping of the government she has so generously defended. Mr. Asquith says this is not the time to take up the discussion of the franchise, and perhaps he's right, so far as Great Britain is con- cerned, but he will find it waiting for him in May, just as it is toda; Raising the Revenue. With the appropriations totalling well up to two billions of dollars in sight, the democrats in congress are sorely perplexed as to how to secure the income that will equal their extravagant out- go. The administration revenue bill, just agreed to by the senate caucus, is a wonderful patchwork of makesHifts and expedients. Its coy and coquet- tish approach to protection, in the form of a duty on dyestuffs, is amusing enough, and is rendered the more so by the sudden shying noted in the amendment to suspend the duty during the war. This will permit the Deutschland to come again and again, as often as it likes, with its cargo of dyes, and enter them duty free, to the discourage- ment of the industry now sought to be established. Stamp taxes and surtaxes are inextricably con- fused in the measure, and a special grab is made for a share of the profits on munitions contracts. For some reason the framers of the measure over- looked a provision that would make the gamblers in grain share their winnings with Uncle Sam, but this is about the only thing the bill does not in- clude. The bill, as it now stands, may, if passed, produce revenue, but it will certainly provide work. It is chiefly valuable as indicating the democratic method of going about an important undertaking, The president made definite recom- mendations to congress on the subject of revenue in December, and the senate gets around to con- sider them in August. At least, there is no sign that it has ceased to be the greatest “deliberative” body in the world. What answer will the voters give to this party, which is now asking for endorsement of its record, just being made up? Warning Call That Should Be Heeded. The collapse of that old Capitol hotel at Lin- coln, with serious, if not fatal, results to several victims, is seized on by the Lincoln Journal as a warning call for a roundup of dangerous tumble- down places. The mishap carries the same sug- gestion for Omaha as it does for Lincoln. It is a good deal better to order old shacks demolished and removed than to wait for them to fall of their own accord at the wrong time. Buildings deter- iorate steadily unless kept in good repair, and the fact that they have once passed inspection does not mean that they would still stand the test. A little stricter and more strenuous enforcement of the building laws would not hurt in Omaha any more than it would in Lincoln. President Wilson's apologists say he is being attacked for appointing democrats to office. It is not the appointment of democrats that puts him in bad, but the kind of democrats he has been appointing, and in most cases he cannot excuse himself, as he can here in Omaha, by shoving the responsibility for an obnoxious selection over onto our democratic senator, — The new British loan, offered to New York, carries higher terms than the previous one nego- tiated by the allies. The loan is to run two ytars ats Iper cent, and is offered at 9. Adding the cost a of placing the paper, the deal approximates 6 per cent money, extraordinary rate for the erst- while financial giant of the world.

If our hotel men must have the services of these dusky sons of Africa's sunny clime, can they not see to it that they are intro- duced to the mysteries of the bath and clad in sanitary garments that could be boiled at least occasionally? Mr. Hotel Man, whose middle name is Rip Van Winkle, this means you, and you, and you! Wake up! and try to realize that this is not the Dark Ages, nor is it Show-hee- gan, but Nineteen-Sixteen, and Omaha— our Pride of the West! Zounds! NUNTOO SQWEEMISH. Ex-Governor Shaw on Provincial Business. New York, August 14.—To the Editor of The Bee: Speaking Detroit, President Woodrow Wilson some pleasing things, and when viewed in the light of well known facts they ‘become very amusing things. For instance: “America, of all countries in the world, has been timid and has not until within the last two or three years provided itself with the fundamental instrumentalities for playing a large part in the trade of the world. America, which ought to have had the broadest vision of any nation, has raised up an extraordinary number of provincial thinkers, men who thought provin- cially about business, men who thought that the United States was not ready to take its competitive part in the struggle for the peaceful conquest of the world.” James J. Hill conceived 'a transportation company that should circumnavigate the globe and was progressing rapidly, when the government interfered and prevented the consummation of his dream. Does the president libel the memory of James J. Hill as a provincial thinker and actor, or does he criticise the government of the United States for the part it took? E. H. Harriman conceived a transporta- tion system to extend from New York City to the Pacific coast, southward across Mex- ico, mcross the isthmus, across Central America and across South America, but the government, supplemented by death, pre- vented consummation. Will the president please designate the object of his criticism? Is it Mr. Harriman or the government? The Standard Oil company did circum- navigate the earth. It conveyed its products across the continent in tank cars and pipe lines, carried it beyond all seas in tank steamers, took it pretty much the entire length of the Andes mountain ranges, on the backs of caravand of llamas, 2,000 miles up the Yanktzee river by boat and thence for a thousand miles inland on the backs of coolies to the very heart of China, but the courts dissolved it because other concerns had not done the same thing. Shall it enlarge and extend its operations or quit entirely? Will the president be more specific? The International Harvester company un- dertook to carry American perfected agri- cultural implements across all seas and un- der all skies and to anticipate the injunc- tion with which the president closed the speech referred to, “Go out and sell goods that will make the world more comfortable and more happy and convert them to the principles of America.” Does President Wilson approve or disapprove of the Inter- national Harvester company, or does he ap- prove of the efforts of the government to limit its operations? The United States Steel Corporation claims to have sought in a quiet and unob- portation against subsidized ships of other countries ever ready to carry domestic freight at nominal- rates, and frequently gratis, charging extra for conveying Amer- ican products, purchased ships that it might put the products of American labor on the western coast of South America, up into Alaska and Vancouver, but it, too, found itself in the toils of judicial proceedings. The fact that it was able to show itself guiltless did not prevent the government, under the direction of our orator president, from prosecuting an appeal to force the Steel Corporation to be provincial in both thought and conduct. Will the president square his actions in the premises with his speech at Detroit, or square future speeches with his acts? The great packing houses and the United Fruit company have each sought to be provincial, but the former has not escaped the courts, nor has the latter avoided the watchful eye of the ubiquitous army of high- salaried inspectors, investigators and prose- cutors. I speak of these things not to question the wisdom of the American people for hav- ing demanded governmental insistance that American business men must and shall be provincal, but to suggest that Mr. Wilson must have failed to note the ever present restlessness and chafing caused thereby. I suggest that if the author of the “New Freedom in Business” is as anxious that American business. men shall take a large part in the world, as his speech would indi- cate, and if he is willing to grant immunity from ecriminal prosecution to those who seek to follow his suggestions this is a splendid time to publicly announce that policy. Abso- lute frankness on his part should have great influence in the campaign. LESLIE M. SHAW. EDITORIAL SIFTINGS. | Indisnapolis News: What makes a soldier? | Ability to endure hardships.
