Medical science admits helpless- ness in the face of the infantile scourge, but grapples with it bravely with every available re- source. | Time does not alter nor familiarity dim the brightness of Mr., Bryan's admiration for Mr. Bryan's peace treaties. It is safe to say that Mr, Bryan considers these formidable agreements the product of the highest statesmanship of this or any other age. A defeated woman candidate for the demo- cratic nomination for congress in a Kansas dis- trict is going to run independent just to show that she can play the game like a seasoned old- school politician. ‘Wonder what name she would have called her competitor for turning a like trick if she had won out? Pedestrians have a certain amount of respon- l sibility, particularly when traveling along streets h where traffic is heavy. They should cheerfully accept this, but it should also be understood that this acceptance does not deprive the pedestrian of his rights nor give to automobile drivers license to exceed the speed limit or otherwise violate the laws and the dictates of common sense. | Shortage of Unskilled Labor l Philadelphia Bulletin Importation to this and contiguous states by the Pennsylvania railroad management of un- skilled labor from the south, a first instalment of Mexicans and a later force of negroes, is an em- hatic suggestion of the condition of the unskilled rlbor field, which is an essential resource for all construction enterprise, According to the immigration. office nearly 500,000 persons emigrated from this country in the last two years, or since the beginning of the war, a very ,considerable percentage of whom were t of the national force of common laborers, e higher prices commanded by skilled labor and the demand in excess of the available supply has increased the normal rate of graduation flom the unskilled to the skilled ranks, which goes on continually, and there has been no adequate supply to make up the decimation of the former, Im- m which usually supplies the unskilled force, has averaged for the last two years less than a fifth of the normal inpouring, and the per- . centage of able-bodied laborers in this diminished immigration is reduced. ‘The question of restricting immigration takes L] ¢ on its economic side in view of The ion of illiteracy may be ed in vifw of industrial necessity, and ¥ro i v t, the average community will ifliterates from the south of more undesirable than' ignorance and ctions of the United T Course of the Army Bill. President Wilson’s refusal to approve the army bill in the form it was sent to him emphasizes, if it does not aggravate, one of the most remark- able situations in which this country has ever been found. No more glittering example of one-man power was ever presented than is furnished by the course of this measure directed and shaped by Representative James Hay of Virginia, chairman of the house committee on military affairs. When President Wilson reversed his policy last fall, yielding to an irresistible public opinion, he called representative members of congress of both par- ties into consultation and asked of them that they give every assistance to a program for defense. The agreement then reached was hailed with satis- faction by the country. When the democrats came into power in the Sixty-second congress, Representative James Hay of Virginia was elevated from a position among the minority members of the military affairs com- mittee and made chairman. In that congress, and the one following, he showed his firm opposition to the plans of the War department, and his de- termination to substitute his own ideas for those of the experts. He did not give his assent to the president’'s program when the Sixty-fourth con- gress opened, but began his work by rejecting en- tirely the recommendations of the Treat commis- sion, which had been appointed to study and re- port on the military problem of the United States. Secretary of War Garrison did his utmost to over- come the powerful influence of Hay, to no avail, and when the Hay bill finally passed the house, Garrison resigned. In the senate the Chamberlain bill was substituted for the Hay bill, but in con- ference the character of the Chamberlain measure was remodeled along Hay lines. It went to the president without the Wilson plan for a conti- nental army, but retaining the Hay states’ rights views, as well as the obnoxious provision that led to the veto. In its entirety it has been considered as a makeshift rather than a constructive measure, advocates of adequate defense hoping to secure proper legislation at another time, The astonishing fact in connection with the situation is that President Wilson has appointed James Hay of Vir(inii to be a judge of the United States court of claims, rewarding him for his blockade of preparation for defense by giving him a life position on the bench. This must be im- mensely pleasing to Lindley M. Garrison, as well as to other democrats who sincerely believe in a str&mgcr and better military establishment, ——— Remember the Union Depot. With all the talk of railroad strike, car short- age, new bridge over the river, and similar topics, one of the most vital of all of Omaha's needs is likely to be neglected. It is the Union passenger station. Agitation last spring fastened attention on this point for several days, but the change in presidents on the Union Pacific allowed it to go over. It should not be lost sight of, however, for its need is more pressing with each passing day. Not only is Omaha growing, and its travel in- creasing, but the general business of the railroads entering the city is expanding. This being true, and the present facilities having been outgrown, for how much longer will Omaha have to put up with inadequaté and antiquated depot accommoda- tions? Mr. Calvin has been here long enough to get a line on the situation, and ought to be able to tell Omaha what the Union Pacific is willing to do in the matter. Record of Accomplishment. Not the most enthusiastic opponent of Presi- dent Wilson will want to detract in the least from his record of accomplishment. But while making up the books, why not keep the record straight? For example, the provision in the Clayton law, declaring that human labor is not a commodity, was put there by Senator Cummins of Iowa, whom the democrats scarcely will claim as a sup- porter of Wilson. The amendment to the constitu- tion of the United States, providing for an income tax, was introduced by a republican senator, and met its main opposition in democratic states. The Glass banking law is the Aldrich law but slightly modified. As to peace with Mexico, the invasion of that country twice by armed forces of the United States and the presence of 150,000 soldiers of the United States along the border now is a fair illustration of the pacific methods employed. And Secretary Lansing very recently informed England that the presence of an armed force near the frontier is to be construed only as a hostile act. The more the list of the administration’s accomplishments is paraded, the hollower it ap- pears, Mr. Bryan Butts In. “Old Doc” Bryan is a lover of peace, thor- oughly committed to it in principle and practice, in the concrete and in the abstract, so much so that wherever trouble exists he will be found close by, with his first aid in his hand, ready to extend succor or advice. That is why he so enthusi- astically thrust himself into the dispute between the railroad men and managers. It isn’t that he hasn’t the fullest confidence in the skill of Dr, Wilson, who has proven himself the greatest ad- juster of modern times; Mr. Bryan just couldn’t resist calling public attention to the fact that he has “something just as good.” His peace treaty soothing syrup is warranted to send to slumber all angry feelings, and to engender among any set of belligerents that beatific state of brotherly love and devotion that makes a disagreement impos- sible. He doesn't ask the rail wage disputants to withdraw from the ministrations of the president, but he would like to get one good chance to try his panacea. It doesn’t look as if Dr. Wilson had any thought of giving over the patient to the in- truder, however, i Do Not Need National Trade Mark. One of the bills favorably reported by the house ways and means committee provides for the adoption of a national trade mark to designate American-made goods. The use of such a device is attractive at first glance, but as it is given de- tailed consideration, its utility as well as its de- sirability disappears. It could not be used ex- clusively to mark superior goods, for the makers of the cheaper and less worthy wares would have the same right to use it as the more commendable manufacturers. It would entail a great deal of extra work on the government to protect it abroad, and after it has been established, it is of doubtful service. The “Made-in-Germany” mark is said to have failed of all that was expected of it, and to have had some effect not especially ad- vantageous to German trade, It will be well, per- haps, to allow American-made goods to go into the world's commerce as they have in the past, and not undertake to give them an extra boost by attaching a national trademark.

The old Scotch professor was trying to im- press upon his students the value of observation. “No,” he complained, “ye dinna use your fa- culties of observation. Ye dinna use 'em. For instance—" Picking up a pot of chemicals of horrible odor, he stuck his finger into it, and then into his mouth. “Taste of it, gentlemen,” he commanded, as he passed the pot from student to student. After each had licked a finger and had felt a rebellion through his whole soul, the old profes- sor laughed in triumph, “I told ye so!" he shouted. “Ye dinna use your faculties of observation! For if ye had ob- served ye would ha' seen that the finger which 1 stuck into the pot was na the finger which I stuck into my mouth!"—Chicago Herald. Clever Work by Burglars. They really do things better in some ways in other lands. For example, crooks worked the com- bination of a safe within five yards of the police station door in Vancouver, B. C, and got away with $10,000. In this great land a similar opera- tion would damage the combination or leave some ! mark as a souvenir of the visit, | { 1916. Where to Invest Money. Omaha, Aug. 16.—To the Editor of The Bee: Seeing a letter in your paper & few days ago from a gentleman who v_vlu_m‘nt able to place his money in one of this city's building and loan associations and asking for advice as to what he could do with it, will say there are reliable factories located in this city that could use this money, can offer good security «nd are willing to pay a larger interest than the building and loans. Factories already located in Omaha, with men of ability at their heads, are struggling along without sufficient funds to accommodate their growing business because of the very stu- pid and dangerous idea abroad here not to put money into manufacturing enterprises. The Commercial club of Omaha is quite ac- tive at the present time boosting for new fac- tories and offering prizes for the best an- swers as to “What factories will most readily succeed in Omaha and why?” Neither the factories already here nor new ones coming in are going to succeed in Omaha until the people of Omaha waken up, shake off their swaddling clothes and with them the primitive idea that real estate is the only safe thing to invest money in. Omaha has had one terrible slump in real estal This is well remembered in the ea d I was asked when there recently what this city now had to prevent a recur- rence? Were there many factories here? Omaha has grown to a point where it is dangerous to go without more value creating and sustaining industries, and the people of Omaha must change thewr views in this re- gard and do something more vital than boost if it keep the factories it already has and gets new ones. There is a great deal of eastern money in Omaha, which is all right up to a certain point, but it is unfair when we have become able to carry part of our own load to induce people {rom other places to start factories here, put their money in these enterprises, which means pull up stakes, cut loose from a great deal they hold dear, to root or die among strangers in own that has no claim upon them be- se of its unwillingness to bear any of its financial burdens, Omaha people being un- willing to loun money to help carry on le- gitimate industries even when good security is offered. Under these circumstances how can Omaha hope to succeed as a manufacturing city, when eastern cities with the best railroad connections, located on navigable rivers and where natural resources make manufacture convenient and cheap are offering large bo- nuses and sites to induce new industries to locate with them, besides being prepared to — GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY.

AN OMAHA WELLWISHER. One Way to Improve Omaha. Danbury, Conn., Aug. 15.—To the Editor of The Bee: Referring to your editorial “New Ideas Are Worth While” in The Bee of the 12th inst, I am at loss as to whether I should address my letter to you or to the Commercial club, so I'll take a chance on you. I have spent the last four seasons either in the east or in California and have met many people who have traveled from coast to coast through Omaha, and it has been a great pleasure to me to hear them praise our well paved streets, our beau- titul parks and our stores and modern build- ings, both public and private, but they almost invariable ask: “Why do you allow your busi- ness streets to be so disfigured with over- head signs and transparencies 2" 1 have never been in a city of near the population of Omaha where the disfigure- ment was so ‘universal or so bad, and I would Is it not within the power of the City Planning board to abate the blotch? 1t might include the “Welcome™ arch. If they have no power I suggest an ordi- nance from our commissioners placing the power somewhere to wipe them out, and also prohibiting the erection of any sign or transparency that projects more than three feet from the building line, and that no pro- Jjecting sign or transparency shall be erected until a drawing or model of the completed design has been submitted to and approved by said authority. There should be official supervision of their installation. Wherever I go I find lots of people who want to know about Omaha and T am doing the best I can to inform them with the aid of the Commercial club and Grain exchange illustrated and statistical matter, and the latter's illustrated book of its inception and growth makes them sit up and take notice. It is hard for them to believe so much has been accomplished in twelve years. JOHN A. MANCHESTER. HUGHES AS A CAMPAIGNER. Chicago Herald: Mr. Hughes sounds no epic note, but he starts the campaign in ener- getic fashion. That there is no disposition at Washington to minimize the possible ef- fects of his speeches and personality is in- dicated by the report that President Wilson himself will probably tour the country to | offset the republican candidate's activity. Now that the opening gun has been fired the contest should soon begin to warm up, St. Louis Globe-Democrat: America has heen made a term of contempt in Mexico and American citizenship a thing of no value. Americans have been sforced by their own government to abandon their property and leave the country. And all due to the rejec- tion of the fundamental principle of inter- national law. Mr. Hughes purposes to restore this principle and put it into definite and vigorous action. He has been asked what he would have.done, and what he would do, in relation to Mexico. This is his answer, and it is celar and complete. Philadelphia Ledger: If our friends the enemy have been hugging to their hearts the illusion that six years of comparative seclusion upon the supreme bench have un- fitted Mr. Hughes as a political campaigner ! the vigor and earnestness of his first day's work in the field must have banished the notion. His speeches and his general activ- ities in Detroit, his first stop in his journey across the continent, showed that he not only has the purpose, but that he also possesses the power to conduct an aggressive and ef- fective warfare for the redemption of the nation. Chicago Tribune: Mr. Hughes' speech at the Coliseum was an impressive utterance before an audience which was even more im- pressive in its mood than in its great num- bers. If that mood is to be defiined in words as it defined itself yery clearly Tuesday night in its deep toned response to the or- dered points of the address, we may best borrow from the speaker's own words to de- fine it. “Now, my friends,” he said in one pas- sage thunderously greeted, “I propose that we have a new birth of American purpose and courage,” and there was that in the intense attention of the packed auditorium which told of a deeply running current of feeling more significant and more encouraging than its frequent outbursts of enthusiasm.
