Purpose of the Hughes Campaign. Democrats accuse Mr. Hughes of finding fault only in his speeches, asserting he has made no constructive proposal, and that his criticisms are unjust because Mr. Wilson had to deal with a large number of important questions, and ought not to be blamed if he did not succeed in hand- ling them all with skill and judgment. The plea thus put up is the natural answer to one who has exposed the weakness of the ad- ministration. Extravagant claims made for the president have inevitably led to consideration of what he actually has done, and turning the search light on his blunders. But Mr. Hughes has not devoted all his time to a discussion of democratic shortcomings. He has used the experience of the country for the last three years to illustrate what may reason- ably be expected from continuation of democrats in power, The difference between republican and democratic policies has been made plain. Further, Mr. Hughes has outlined a definite pro- gram for the future, both constructive and pro- tective in its nature. He has very plainly stated his beliefs, his hopes, his aspirations and his pur- poses, and they are all to the furthering of the welfare of this country and its people. The future of the country is at stake in his election, and that is why Hughes’ plain speaking is winning support to his cause and proving disappointing to the democratic spokesmen. Another “Holy War” Under Way. The Sherif of Mecca, who lays claim to the distinction of being the titular head of Islam be- cause of his heritage of the power and prestige of the prophet, has declared a “holy” war against the Young Turks. This proceeding will engage attention of students of the great war as present- ing another angle of the complicated politics in- volved in the strife, It amounts to nothing, so far as its religious significance is concerned. Sev- eral other forms of “holy” war have already been proclaimed. The sultan of Turkey, pretending to be the heritor of the prophet, issued a procla- mation early in the course of his participation in the conflict, declaring the war to be “holy” so far as it applies to the Entente Allies, and un- furled the green banner of Islam, but has not been supported unanimously by followers of 'the prophet, who are fighting under many flags. For the matter of that, the czar of Russia is the head of one church, while the king of England and the emperor of Germany are nominal heads of two other branches, Each of these has, in effect, if got in words, declared his cause “holy,” with the result that the student of the future is going to be pressed somewhat in his effort to determine which of the several causes is the more holy, un- less he relies on the time-honored dictum that God fights on the side of the heaviest artillery. Shaving the “Hairy Poilu.” A French general of high command has or- dered that soldiers be shaved, and that hereafter the French arniy present a clean, open face to the enemy. This order is much bewailed by poets and artists, who lament the prospective disap- pearance of the hirsute adornments that have won for a considerable portion of the fighting forces of LaBelle France the descriptive appellation of “hiry.” The general, however, is not moved by any considerations of sentiment, but supports his order by a statement that the transportation wing of the army is now compelled to carry a great many tons of unnecessary weight, the same being represented by the bushy beards of the two million odd men who are thus equipped. While the new move may not increase the efficiency of the French forces, it will go a long ways toward minimizing the frightfulness of the war, if the illustrations printed over there are accurate. Hair on the face isi no longer em- blematic of manhood, nor does its lack mean a lessening of masculine virility, despite the re- marks attributed to the kaiser. Many German soldiers are clean shaven, while in the English and American armies it has been the custom for many years to shave daily. A beard in war time is a survival of savagery; it is unsanitary and un- The clean-faced man has some comfort his bearded brother can not under- stand. If the general's order is carried out, the French army will lose something from the point of the picturesque, but it will be better looking hereafter. Salvation for:the Moros. A scientifically equipped expedition is to be sent out by the Rockefeller institute to save the Moros. Sons of the Sulus to whose undoing the cocktail preceded the constitution, are to have the benefit of the very latest service for the uplifting of mankind, Savants of the institute reason that the Igorots and other head-hunters in the outlying islands of the Philippine archipelago were re- deemed by the medicine men who went among them and ministered to their bodily ailments, so the Sulus, who are afflicted by a multifarious variety of diseases, comprising almost the entire classified list of ills that flesh is heir to, are to be given the benefit of curative treatment. The capsule and the clinical thermometer are going in the wake of the flag, and the little brown brother, who is the active and energetic repository of the amalgamated deviltry of all the brown and yellow races, is to be subdued by kindness, administered by trained nurses under the direction of eminent practitioners. Mainly the hookworm is to be ex- terminated from amongst these unmanageable heathen, but all other forms of existing disease will be looked after, to the end that the Sulus may in time become a credit and not a reproach to the race. As aiding them towards fitness for self- government, which the democrats propose. to thrust upon them at some future time, the move is a good one; and if we are to take them over as citizens of a territory of the United States, it is certainly desirable that they come clean in flesh if not in spirit, Either way, the Rockefeller ex- pedition ought to help. l The increasing courage of suffragists on the age question manifests itself in spots. “Over 21" is the usual answer to the searching question of registration officers in suffrage states. While it shelters youth and middle age, elders flout it and reveal the secret of years. In Chicago the other day a leader of suffrage leaders cheerily "fessed up to 113 years and was proud of it. Thus does the nimble wisdom of years blaze the right way for suffrage youths ——— ) An Ohio man is reported to have fasted flfty-one days and experienced great difficulty in working up an appetite at the finish.

Storyette of the Day. A Highlander, who prided himself on being able to play one tune on the pipes, perched him- self on the side of one of his native hills one Sunday morning and commenced blowing for all he was worth. Presently the minister came Wlong and, go- ing up to MacDougall with the intention of se- verely re nmsndmlg him, asked in a very harsh voice, “MacDougall, do you know the Ten Com- mandments?” MacDougall scratched his chin ment, and then, in an equally harsh voice said: D'ye think you've beat me?

C., Aug. 26.—To the Editor of The Bee: In your is- sue of August 6, under title of “Can- ned Beans Kills” it was stated that poison from eating canned beans re- sulted in the death at a local hospi- tal of Mrs. Philip Klien of Fremont, Neb. The husband and two children were taken ill but recovered. This matter was called to the atten- tion of the Bureau of Publicity of the National Caunners' association, and has been fully investigated. Through Dr. Agee, the attending physician, it was learned that he first visited Mrs. Klien on July 29, when he diagnosed her illness as Cholera Morbus. Dr. Agee called Dr. George Haslam in consultation and he performed an op- eration upon Mrs. Klien at the hospi- tal. A signed statement from Dr. Haslam says: ‘no indications of pto- maine poisoning.” Dr. Haslam further stated to our representative that he was responsi- ble for the newspaper statements that Mrs. Kline died from ptomaine poisoning caused from eating canned pork and beans. That after Mrs. Kline died, a reporter telephoned to him and asked for the cause of Mrs. Kline's death. He gave an evasive answer, and when the reporter stated that the family had said that her death resulted from eating canned pork and beans, and that it was pto- maine poisoning, he answered that he supposed it was. Dr. Haslam further stated that he signed the death certificate stating that the cause of death was obstruc- tlon of the bowels, which was in fact the real cause of death. The canning industry is a large and honest one, and large sums of money are expended in this industry in your own and adjacent states. Articles of the nature of your original publica- tion are liable to influence the minds of the consuming public against the use of canned food, and we know that you will wish to make a corrected statement. In the past few years our association has investigated several hundred cases of alleged ptomaine poisoning from the use of canned food but in no single instance have we found a genuine case. FRANK E. GORRELL, Secretary Natl. Canners' Assn. His Chance to Immortalize Himself. South BSide, Omaha, Aug. 26—To the Editor of The Bee: I noticed my old friend August Miller has been writing to the president offering to take charge of supplies of milk for the. starving babies in Germany and to dellver the milk in that country If the babies of Germany are really starving why did not Mr. Miller send a telegram to the captian of the Deutschland and offer his services, and command that captain to take milk back to Germany with him instead of rubber with which to repair war automobiles and nickel to use in shells to kill men with? It would have been more in keeping with the rules of humanity if the Deutschland had been loaded with condensed milk, than with that which will tend to prolong the war that much longer. I would suggest to Mr. Miller that when the submarine Bremen recahes our shores that he at once hasten to the east and insist on the Bremen taking back milk instead of that which will be used in killing men, and if the captain of the Bremen refuses to follow his advise, to take charge of the ves- gel himself and show his humanity in deeds as well as in words. If Mr. Miller is unsuccessful getting hold of the Bremen, I would suggest that he hire a fleet of submarines to take that milk back to Germany. Mr. Mil- ler might immortalize himself if he would go over to Germany and sug- gest to the Kalser that he stop the war, for then the babies would not have to starve any longer if Mr. Mil- ler would order the Kaiser to stop the war. He would be almost sure to succeed in stopping the war and and the name of Mr. Miller would be immortalized in history. To stop the war would be of more lasting bene- fit to humanity than a temporary ex- pedient of sepding condensed milk to the babies of Germany. FRANK AGNEW. What Can the Poor Thing Do? Omaha, Aug. 26.—To the Editor of The Bee: The democratic organ has been making the welkin ring recent- ly with wild appeals to the republi- cans to ‘“stop in their mad career” long enough to explain why the State Railway commission is to be shorn of its rate- fixing and similar powers in the interests of the féderal com- mission. It has been shreiking why? Why? And now perhaps it may learn why, as its own dear Woodrow, by one of those sudden right-about-faces for which he is so justly famous, has all at once come around to exactly the same stand as the republicans on this question. He has promised the roads—in a very low tone—that it they will be good and surrender at discretion he and his congress will get them an increase in rates, where- with to pay Mr. Brotherhood the ran- som, he is demanding. And Mr. Wil- son proposes to get this rate increase by giving the federal commission greater powers. Evidently even a democratic president knows too much to attempt to get a raise from forty- odd state commissions, some of which are ready'to die in the last ditch rath- er than grant a one-cent raise to the roads. If a strike is averted and Mr. Wilson carries out his promise, what will the poor World-Herald do? Gulp twice and shut up, or appeal franti- cally to its own leaders for informa- tion as to Why? Why? Why? GEORGE E. HYDE. Good Old Milk Days. Omaha, Aug. 26.—To the Editor of The Bee: When and where is the end? Is there no remedy in sight? Mr. Milkman, we are not all fools. In the eighties I was in the milk business myself in a small way. Grass, which you, cannot but admit is your mainstay {n summer, was as plentiful this season as it was those hot summers. Bran, corn and hay, (wonder of wonders) are no higher in price than they were those years. The milkman's work was almost twice as hard and heavy as it is now, as two dellveries were called for. And you ask what milk sold for then? It was delivered for from twenty to twenty-four. quarts for a dollar, It was not skimmed or watered, and believe me, they made money. - I no- tice that when one of our milk mer- chants does sell out his plant, he generally takes a trip to his father- land for six months or a year; comes back and invests in a hostelry, or some other high priced and lucra- tive business. And they can't afford to give us milk at the present prices! Another thing I notice is that the most of them can afford an automo- bile or twe, which the majority of thelr customers cannot, but probably could if they were not continually held up by the dairymen and others of their ilk.
